THE uIYED FOURSOME HANDICAP
1T PROVES TO BE ONE OF THE MOST Sue
CESsFUL GOLF CONTESTS OF
THE SEASON.

One OF the most successful tournaments OF the
season at the Morris County Golf Club was the
mixed foursome handicap. which was played ther.
yesterday. This form Of the game has met WIN
much favor wherever II has been tried. and anords
q plea sant variation from the more common meth
DDS Of play. Nineteen couples took part the largest
field in n mixed foursome ever seen In this heish
borhood. The competition lasted throughout 'he
entire day the earliest starters beginning al III

plavers were handicapped carefully, according 70
the abilities of the two members or each team
They were then sent out by fours so that each
pair might have another to play against az an IN

Sudden changes of the ration do not
prove of advantage with dairy cows.
A change Of food should be gradual.
It requires but very little to cause q
COW TO fall off in milk, and the feeding
should be done judiciously. Oilmeal
should always be used by commencing
with small quantity, half pound o
day being sufficient, increasing an
ounce a day until pound or more Of
the meal is allowed. 1t should be mixed
with other food, as it sometimes "gums"
In the mouth and may be rejected.

GARDEN AND ORCHARD.

Dwarf pears and grapes are especial
ly adapted to small places where only
little room can be spared.
Hubbard squashes are considered the
best for winter keeping. Remember
this when planting now.
While mixed fertilizers can be used
to advantage with fruits, potash is more
essential than anything else.
In cutting limb from tree it should
be cut as close to the body as possible,
making the cut a smooth one.
OF fruit trees, the best, and, In fact,
the only one that can be recommended
for shade along the roadside Is the
cherry.
Peach trees growing near the house
where dish and wash water are usually
thrown out are long-lived and free from
disease.
Keep the ground moist and mellow by
frequent civilizations; it will help ma
terially to retain moisture near the sur
face during the summer.
One of the best ways of pruning fruit
trees is by rubbing off the buds and
cutting OFF twigs as soon as possible
when it can be seen that they are not
needed.-St. Louis Republic.
The advocate., 1896-07-08

and least of all in tobacco dust. When
I put this latter inch deep around melon
or cucumber plants, the yellow-striped
beetle promptly takes it's departure and
will stay away as long as the tobacco
remains dusty or as long as 1t gives Oft
strong tobacco smell.
Let me repeat, too, that this same
waste material is one of our best and
cheapest general insecticides. We can
use it both under glass and in open air.
BY all means keep a good supply Of it
on hand. Possibly you can get sweep
lngs from a near cignr factory, or you
may buy the material by the barrel
at about $3.50 or three dollars. It viii
last you for years and help you to keep
the premises clear of tho various pests
that prey upon your crops and animals.
L. you scatter tobacco dust by hand or
with bellows, over your lows OF peas,
just at nightfall, you can kill the slugs
tnat are 80 often eating all the lower
foliage OFF and greatly damage the crop.
Or IL you dust it in the same way over
your currant and gooseberry bushes,
when infested with worms, you will
quickly see the worms disappear. In
the same way you can quickly kill all
the ieaf-eating worms and slugs on
your trees and bushes everywhere. The
tent caterpillar and the fall web-worm,
and all other caterpillars ON trees and
plants, give up the ghost within few
minutes after coming in contact with
tobacco dust. And besides all this, to-
bacco dust Is worth about what IL costs
as a fertilizer. We can also control,
in measure, at least, the most un-
manageable pests of our gardens, name
ly, the flea beetle and the cabbage mag
got. But In order to make thorough
work, in Kidding the plants of these
pests, we have to be very liberal in the
use of the tobacco dust. For instance,
If we throw good, big handful into
the heart Of the cabbage plant or caull-
flower plant, or on a choice Seeding po-
'ato, we may be quite sure that the flea
beetles will leave, for time at least,
and If we apply the same quantity to
the stem Of cabbage or caulihower
plant, we may be sure the maggots will
not flourish there for awhile.-Practi-
cal Farmer.

Seedlings from Grated Trees.

Seedlings from the fruits Of grated
trees do not produce the grated variety.
Usually they revert to other fruit which
10 inferior to that Of the tree from which
the seed was taken, but occasionally a
specimen may develop which will pro-
duce even better fruit than It's parent.
Grating simply perpetuates the variety
Of the tree from which the graft is
taken. There is hardly any more in
teresting and fascinating subject than
that of raising seedlings, but the
chances of raising anything better than
already exists are infnitesimally small.

Directions for the Use Of Tobacco Dust
for Destructive Insects.
A reader asks me whether tobacco
dust should be applied TO vines when
they are wet with dew or when they
are dry. This moves me to say that the
tobacco dust, or the bone meal, or the
mixture of both, is not intended as a
coating for the leaves, which would
make them poisonous or unpalPtable,
but as a covering for the coil, that will
make the atmosphere very uncomfort-
able for all insects and worms. 1 like
to have the material remain dry and
dusty as long as possible. In that case
1t has more thorough effect on bugs
and beetles that have hard shells. The
wet tobacco, or tobacco tea, or even
the fumes of wet tobacco, are very
