ORCHARD AND GARDEN.

Keep suckers from growing around
the base of the trees.
There is no necessity for any kind OF
shade in the garden.
The time to shape the heads of the
trees is when they are young.
In selecting trees take those with a
smooth, healthy-looking bark. with
small fbrous roots.
If trees are planted for vind-breal1
care should be taken to have them of a
growing habit.
If the trees are washed in the spring
with strong soapsuds or I've. many in
sect pests will be destroyed.
With seeds that are slow to terminate
in the garden it will often be a good plan
to sow few radish seed.
One advantage in having fruits grow
ing on well-drained land is that the
fruits will come to a maturity earlier

Valuable lessons d V be learned from
the experience of Al lie growers the
past season. One is that fruit packed
and placed in cold storage in too ripe
condition will not turn out satisfactor-
lily in the spring. Large quantities put
away last fall as fine, and counted as
long keepers, are turning out poorly.
Such fruit as was stored in best condi-
ton is now selling at top prices of the
season. If the rule holds that year of
great abundance and over-bearing is
followed by moderate yield the next
season, the apple crop Of 1897 will prove
much more manageable. Spray your
trees intelligently and thoroughly, that
profits accruing from the sale Of choice
fruit next fall may make up for losses
the past season.-Orang Judd Farmer.

Immediately he inserted the long tail

One day he was taking copious meal

Mystery Which Has Never Been Solved
by White Travellers.
BY what occult means do barbarians
transmit news with almost the rapid
ity of lightning? Again and again has
this puzzled the advance forces of civ.
ilization. In the Soudan, where the
worlds interest centers now; with the
Indians, on the western frontiers OF
the United States; among the Eski-
mos of Alaskar-in fact, with savages
in nearly every quarter of the globe
the facility with which information is
spread far and wide is marvellous.
Only with the utmost difficulty has
the intelligence department of the
British army learned Of the movements
of the dervishes. The Egyptians and
other native allies of the English army
seem not to have been possessors of the
dervishes' secret modes.
On the other hand, Mohammedans

vance upon the Nile of the Anglo-Egyp-

soil FoR RAsPeERRlEs.
Different Varieties Demand Entirely
Different Ground.

DAieFenT GPOUnOs
AS to soil for raspberries different va.
rieties demand different soil in order
to do their best. The red and white
kinds require deep, rich moist soil and
one that is rather compact. Generally
they do poorly on sandy soil. though in
the extreme north they may show an
exception to the rule. The black rasp-
berry will do well in either light OF
heavy soil, but they will do best on soil
that is light In the selection of plants
we will remember that no variety of the
raspberry is other than biennial. That
is to say, one year they produce wood
the next year fruit, and that is the end
of them. We need not look. therefore,
for two or three-year-old plants. I:
is best to get one-year-old plants for
transplanting always. But while the
wood is short lived the roots are long
lived, often being several years old.
Before planting the raspberry, in any
way, thoroughly prepare the soil. In
selecting plants get those with plenty
or small fibrous roots, and set no deep
er than they originally were. IF the
ground is poor manure in the hill, at
the time of planting, and afterwards on
the surface, working it with pillow or
cultivator. Keep the soil as level as
possible, and free from weeds. The
raspberry receives very little pruning.
In field culture none is given, except to
cut off the old wood after fruiting. 1t
would often prove beneficial, however,
to prune Western Plowman.

Experiments Win Cabbares

From the Maine station come notes
on experiments in cabbage culture.
Three varieties we're compared to test
the effect of size of seed on the heads.
In two varieties the larger seed was
found to produce much heavier heads
Tying up the outer leaves was found to
have no influence upon the maturity
of the head, as is popularity supposed,
while it caused marked decrease in
size, and the moisture collecting with
in the leaves almost invariably caused
the heads to decay. Mulching the
plants with swale hay produced heads
slightly larger than were borne by UNI
mulched plants used as checks. But
little effect on the size of the heads was
produced by deep cultivation, but
plants so treated appeared to mature
more uniformly than when shallow cul-
tivation was given.
