Nitrate of Soda and Strawberries.

Extreme care should be used
in scattering nitrate of soda
around strawberry plants, as the
least particle of it dropped on the fol-
iage is death to the plants. A careless hand
did considerable damage to some valua-
bic plants in a nursery here few weeks
ago. Care should also be taken to not put
too much around the plant. A safe rule
to go by would be to calculate how much
to put on, then use only one-half as much,
and Immediately hoe and cultivate to work
it in the soil, because if heavy rains come
some strength of it may be splashed up on
the foliage. 1t is a good fertilizer to hurry
up plant growth; but If the inexperienced
will touch his tongue to it he will conclude
that very little of it is all that is needed

REMARKABLE MAINE BEES.
A Discovery which Shows That "a
bee Line Is Not Always n Straight
FROM the Now York 81

From the New York Sun.
The bees Of Hancock county are acting
strangely this year. Professional hunt
ers, experts at lining bees, search for
weeks without finding a swarm, While
men who stay at home and do not care
for honey have bees come to them and
make gallons of honey right under their
dwelling houses. Tom Sellers, proprietor
of the Penobscot house, belonging 20 the
latter class.
Early in June a Boston family con-
slsting of a man, his wife and four young
children, came down to pass the sum-
mer at the hotel. One day the children
who had been playing in the open attic
Of the hotel came down and informed
their mother that the roof of the house
was full Of little birds. The mother
paid no attention to what hey said. Two
days later, however, her children were
so badly stung while playing in the at
TIC that the services Of a doctor were
demanded. When he went to hunt up
the cause Of the trouble, Sellers found
a large swarm Of bees and about fifty
pounds of honey clingng to the peak Of
the roof from the inside, and hosts OF
bees passing in and out among some
poorly nailed shingles under the saddle
boards. He at once locked up the attic
staircase, hoping the bees would MI the
whole loft with honey. on visiting the
room by lantern light early In SeDtem-
Der he found that two more swarms had
come out and begun TO make comb in the
loft. One was in the peak, ten feet
away from the parent swarm, and the
other was stuck fast against the side OF
the great brick chimney. Sellers hope
Of filling the great room with honey
seemed TO be a certainty. SO he locked |
up the room again and will wait until
next winter. when he expects to sell
honey by the cord.
In Dedham, n town lying north from
Penobscot, Daniel johnson, an aged far |
mer, while setting fence rails in a cedar
swamp toward the close OF August, felled |
a thicket Of lnterlocked trees and was
stung so badly that he was nearly blind
before he got home. Believing he had been |
assailed by wasps. he did not know the |
magnitude Of his discovery until he went
out a week later and learned that he had
felled about forty pounds OF white comb
honey, which was slowed away In a mass

A WORD of cheer.

We believe that the coming season is
going to be a more prosperous one for
the farmers than the present one. But
the old conditions which made farming
fairly profitable with slipshod methods
will never return. The successful farmer
of the future will be he who conducts his
onerations on business principles. So
saws the Practical Farmer. Yes, farmer
must know how to sell his crops of diff
ferent kinds. Diversified crops must be
the rule of the southern farm from now
on. If the farmer does not come to IN
derstand this at once, he will most GER
tainly be elbowed out of his country by
the increasi number of northern lmnl-
grants, who have been trained to haolts
of thrift and who believe in diversified

Those who wish to break
away from the conventional style
of window boxes can easily
do so by following the plan 1 describe,
which, however, is not by any means
new one with me. The main part of the
box may be filled to suit your TASTE but at
each outside corner plant climber, such
as Cobea scandes, German Ivy, Maur-
andya, Tropaeolum canariensis, Clematis
or tall Nasturtum-I prefer the Cobea on
account of it's rapid growth and neat TO-
liage. Drive a small nail into the outer
casing over the center of the window
and to this attach a small wire (stem-
ming), bringing the ends down to the out
side corners of your box, letting them be
slack enough to make a graceful curve.
BY training up the first tendrils the wires
will soon be covered and the effect from
without and within will be charming, and
will be greatly admired. l speak from
experience, for the box l am looking out
upon is planted as described, and the
many favorable comments passed upon it
induced me to describe it that others
might Ego and do likewise" II.

A Valuable Emit.

All things considered, the blackberry Is
the best fruit man can put on his
place. 1t is one Of the most abundant
bearers, and is a reasonably certain crop
every year. No fruit is more healthful,
and no other will bear neglect so we'll.
OF course, no fruit should be neglected
but many farmers do neglect all their
fruits. No farmer should deny his family
the cheap luxury of a good blackberry
patch. A number of very superior varie-
ties have been originated in Texas within
the last few years.

DISARMING THE ENGLISH.
THE Boers Compel the Surrender of
 the Rand Men.

PRETORIA, Transyaal, Jan. 10.- The government is showing discontent at the reluctance displayed by the Rand men to disarm. It is estimated 30,000 of the latter have been armed and only 10000 have yielded their arms. The armed Boers in the field also impatient. The position st Johan. nesberg is critical and the Boer leaders have the utmost difficulty in restrain ing their men.
 Proclamation was yesterday issued calling upon all Rand men to disarm before 6 o'clock Friday evening on pain of prosecution. Those complying will be pardoned, except the leaders of the revolt.
 There is a feeling here that the Rhodes charter will be cancelled to prevent further disorder.

 He takes the position that as the peo- pie of the Pacific coast are largely in- terested in the beet sugar industry, any tariff bill passed should provide for protecting this interest.

AFTER THE CHIEFS

The Transyaal government is not yet
satisfied. DIR. Jameson and his raiders
have been indicted in London; the leaders
Of the Johannesburg Reform Committee
have been punished. but Cecil Rhodes, the
king bee Of the whole outfit, has so far
gone "unwhipt of justice" Now the Beers
are getting after him. and they not only
demand his trial, but they want the powers
of the chartered South Africa Company to
be effectually crushed. They donot tpropose
to tolerate semi-responsibie, hostile force
in their neighborhood, but prefer to have
Great Britain take hold OF the government
and rights Of the territory now controlled
by the company and assume the full re-
sponsibility for all acts. They may not, per
baps, feelmore secure againstencroachment
and annoyance, but there will be at least
scme authority that can be held TO account
for such wrongs as ii may commit.
Ample evidence of the completely of
Rhodes in the Jameson raid Is in the
hands OF the Beers, and they intend to
make the best possible use OF it. Mr..
Chamberlain is to be placed in full knowl-
edge OF the character of the proof, and
it will trouble him to find an excuse for
not acting upon It. In view OF the admir-
able course of the Boer government in
this matter from beginning to end, it is
difficult to see what else the colonial
office can do than to accede to the re-
quest for the examination, Indictment,
and trial OF Cecil Rhodes. 1t will be a
bitter pill for John Bull to swallow, but
he will have to do 1t.
