ORCHARD AND GARDEN,

Any soil that is too damp naturally
to produce healthy trees should be
avoided.
If only well-rotted and thoroughly
lined manure is used the garden can
hardly be made too rich.
Lime is one of the best materials to
apply to get rid of the white grub in
the strawberry beds.
Wood ashes and poultry manure make
the best fertilizers for onions. They
can both be used as top dressing.
1t is good plan as we'll as an inter-
esting experiment to try few new
varieties every year on small scale.
When onions are to be raised from
seed all reasonable care should be taken
to sow the seed at the first opportunity.
To grow large, rich currants, make
the ground rich and keep it clean and
mellow. Thin out the brush by cut
ting away the old stunted growth of
wood, and leave the young, vigorous
roots.
Strawberry plants that are well
mulched are least affected by sudden
change of weather. The mulch also
prevents the plants from beginning to
grow too early in the season and lessons
the risk Of their getting killed by late
trosts.-St. Louis Republic.

How to Care for Plants.

To keep plants free from insects one
Of the best remedies is tobacco. Take a
small package of strong tobacco and
pour over it boiling water. When cool
the plants should be set into the mix
ture and washed, leaves and all, besides
being thoroughly soaked with it. An
other remedy is strong soapsuds made
of carbolic soap and water. Plants
must be kept clean if they are to be
healthy. The leaves should be washed
occasionally in order that the dust may
be removed. The leaves are the lungs

Room for Dressing Poultry.

When one has good deal of poultry
to dress yearly it will be found of ad-
vantage to have a room for that pur-
pose. A lean-to to the henhouse will
naturally be most convenient If this is
furnished with skylight all the bet
ter. 1t should be light and large enough
to give sufficient room for a stove to
warm the room, as well as to keep the
water hot for scalding or other pur-
poses. The floor should be smooth and
tight. A scantling should be put
across the room at convenient height,
with few spikes driven in on which to
hang the birds while dressing; anoth-
er scantling or two along the sides to
hang up the dressed poultry to let cool
and to wash heads and mouths.

AGRICULTURAL HINTS
ROAD CONSTRUCTION.
Inc Two Essential Points to D.
- Aimed at by Ruillers -

the Two Essential Points to De
Aimed at by Builders.
Prof: r. j. H. Merrill, in paper read
before the Albany institute, says that
the question of good roads in this coun-
Try Is now at about the same stage at
which it was in England century ago.
Al that time roads were so bad that
general investigation was undertaken
resulting in the formulation of certain
rules for road building, whose adoption
led to the construction of the fine high
ways for which Great Britain has so
long been famous. The problem was
then of great commercial Importance,
as England had no railroads.
The experience of over {, 900 years has
shown conclusively that there are two
essential points to be aimed at in the
construction of Il road. First, hard,
smooth waterproof surface; second,
thoroughly dry foundation. These
principles were known to the Romans
800 years B. G. The surface of good
road may be of sufficient strength to
resist the wear and tear of traffic, and
smoeth enough to prevent underwear on
vehicles. In connection with this, the
soil beneath must he made dry, and kept
dry. Therefore, the subject of re ad drain
age is as important as that of road
1netaling. The best road covering is
composed of angular fragments of some
stone. which will grind on the surface
into a dust. which, when wet, will bind
On, in measure, cement the fragments
together, so that water will not pene-
trate. The angular form is essential to
make the fragments interlock. The
sizes should be quite uniform, except
that the surface layer may consist of
smaller fragments than the bottom
course. The total thickness of this
metaling must be at least six inches
On natural soil foundation. The frag-
1nents should not exceed 21s inches in
diameter, and should be rolled in two
separate courses with a heavy steam
roller until the surface is absolutely
firm

table General Cultixafian Nh Z.

The Vartetfes Most Suitable for Prof.
ttgsl liable General Cultivation. 4. Gf
At the recent meeting of the Ontario
Experimental union, held at the Agri-
cultural college, Guelph, Ont. (Canada),
Prof. H. L. HUT, the experimenting
horticultural. of the institution, gave
report on the results of the recent
experiments with Strawberries grown
on the college grounds. He has OBJ
served an extra growth of plants as
q result of the careful removal of the
blossoms the first season. This only
confirms our old experience, that in Or
der to secure the heaviest crop the Sec
ond year (Which is the ma;n and usual
~ the only fruiting year, as strawber-
ries are handled by good growers), we
have to adopt the practice of preventing
all fruit setting the same season that
the bed is established. Then in order
to have full crop, we must have full
matted rows. With varieties that are
good plant-mal<ers, like Wilson, Cres-
cent, Haverland, Bubach, Warfield, etc.,
We have no difficult y in securing the full
stand of plants, in an average fair sea-
son, even if in starting the bed we put
the plants two feet apart. This is the
distance which Prof. HUT recommends
for planting such sorts, while 1s inches
is as much as poor plant-makers should
be spread apart in the row at the start.
Next. for heavy yield, we want the
heavy yielders. Among them, Warfield
was found to be at the head. Alton is
much like it. Warfield has good leaf
and very firm. berry. Haverland is
one of the best for home cultivation.
Rubach was the 18th, and Crescent the
2eth, in the order of best yielders.
Haverland was found at the head in
general health and power to resist rust.
Among the perfect Towering sorts
(those named all being pistillates).
Saunders was found first in productive
ness and vigor. Prof. HUT prefers to
grow the imperfect and perfect bloom
ers in alternate rows, in order to insure
full fruit setting and therefore best
yield. The question is what varieties
to plant together. Haverland was the
first to show bloom. Van Deman, a
Perfect-fowering sort, is also an early
bloomer, and might be used to furnish
pollen for the other. Lovett's Early
aud Candy bloom soon after these, and,
in pinch, might be used for the same
purpose. Haverland and Warfield are
among the earliest to give ripe fruit.
Rio stands second in the list, although
it stands 43d in the order of yield.
MiclePS Earlv stands third for earlv
and gives large yield for an early
sort, but the fruit is small and soft.
Warfield stands fourth for earliness,
and is the great berry for the west, and
for heavy land and plenty of moisture,
but seems not so good for light, dry
soils. Among the latest varieties, Prof.
HUT mentioned Edgar Queen, Equinox
and Mrs. Cleveland. - T. Greiner, III
