Iinstrels.
Owing to an unforeseen difficulty the
Dockstader Minstrel company did not
appear at Savin Rock yesterday, as
was expected. Mr.. Kelsey, with his
usual energy, had engaged this conn.,
pany to appear at Savin Rock this
week to entertain the multitudes of
patrons of the Winchester Avenue rail-
road line, but yesterday Mr.. Kelsey re-
ceived a telegram to the effect that the
company had been stranded in the
south and before he could arrange for
the company's transportation to New
Haven it had disbanded.
Mr.. Kelsey, however, not to be block
ed by trif1es, has secured an equally
strong attraction for this afternoon
and evening at the Rock, and the pa
irons of the Winchester Avenue road
may be sure of fine afternoon and
evenings entertainment at Sayin Rock
for every day this week.

Situation and Soil for Strawberries.

Strawberries should be given q sit
ustion sheltered from hot sweeping
winds, though they should never be
much shaded. Very rolling ground,
liable to strong washing and tilling,
should be avoided, and q level piece at
the foot of steep slope is sometimes
open to the same objection; for a fne
berry patch after heavy rain, buried
beneath several inches of mud and silt,
is a sight to discourage the most en-.
thusisstic.
The best soil is one just sandy enough
to work nicely and drain well, and
about the worst is a stiff, wsxy, or
gumbo land which tends to hold water
after a rain. Strawberries will do
little in a sour, undrsined soil. While
strawberries will repay the generous
treatment, yet 1t is an easy matter to
get the land too rich in the elements
furnished by stable manure; and one
should especially avoid the use of too

Some Points for Farmers.

The small farmer should produce the
best horses, as he is better prepared to
carefully mature the two or three colts
constantly under his care and by han
ding them constantly they are edu-
Gated to work, but most do not appre-
ciste their advantage; they raise the
scrub and let the larger dealers raise
those In which are the most money.
1t is very common on some farms to
keep the grIndstone out of doors, shell
tered only by the foliage of some tree
in summer, but in winter exposed to
all kinds of storms. These stones are
always more or less porous. If they
were not they would not make good
material to sharpen metal cutting tools.
When grindstone gets wet and the
moisture in it freezes, pieces OF the
stone chip off and the stone wears
away uneVenly, thus soon becoming Of
very little value.
Speaking Of foes In the orchard,
American Gardening says: "NO doubt

the most of his trees must get &C.

Thus he can look after their welfare,

sources all winter long is Q big mis-
take. "-NeSO York Former.
