From @e Clipper, Burlington, "

A reporter called upon Miss Lillian War
ner at her home, AIS st. Paul Street, Burling-
ton, VT, and begged the favor of an interview.
The young lady is a musician and a
pianist of considerable renown, and has her
time fully occupied by engagements to play
at concerts and other entertainments that
are constantly taking place in the city, and
the strain upon the strength and nervous
energy OF the pianist can be easily imagined

enthusiastically, "that braces me for INV
work. Some little time ago l was utterly
unable to attend to my duties, owing to o
disarrangement of the nervous system that
effected my eyes with all the rest. They be-
came so weak and troubled me SO that fin
ally went away into the country to rest.

but the medicines had no lasting effect. and

II was about ready 10 throw physic to
the dogs when first heard of Dr. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People, and it was with
but small faith in any benefit to be derived
from them that at last made up my mind to
try them.

afflicted, and my eyes grew stronger every

" Are you taking the pills now ?" was the
next query.

me great deal, and after l had taken six
boxes felt so well that I left off the medi-
cine entirely and have not taken any now
for some weeks. / am able to attend to all
my duties and feel as well as can be, while

home TO the business part of the city.
Miss Warner further said that DR.. Will
llams' Pink Pills for Pale People build up
the system, giving a lasting effect and not
merely fictitious strength for the time be-
ing.

CULTURE OF MELONS.

Their Successful Growth REQUIRES
Lots of Plant Food.
Watermelons are excessive feeders,
and many fail in attempting to grow
them because they do not furnish suf-
dcient plant food to supply the neces-
sary strength for vigorous vine and fine
fruit. Not infrequently watermelon
vines turn yellow and die when they
should be just in their prime, simply
from plant starvation.

A Profitable Garden Crop.

Spinach is an important crop in our
market gardens and one of the most
easily managed Of vegetables, requiring
but little culture, and may be had fit
for use the entire season. The main
crop is sown in August or September
for spring use, and, although ex-
tremely hard, requires to be protected
by light covering of hay or straw
during the winter For summer use
it may be sown at intervals of two or
three weeks, from April to August.
Spinach is best developed and most
tender and succulent when grown in u
rich soil.

lect the spot where a small bed is to be
devoted to foliage or other plants, and
sink an empty keg in the center just
below the position of the coming roots.
Fit an old piece of tin pipe, as sug-
gested in the sketch, and your "irrigat-

THE FARM GARDEN.
How TO Keep the Ground Occupied
from Spring 60 BnlI.

from Spring TO FAIL.
The garden is the most productive
acre Of the farm. Fit is not, itshould
be made 80. 1t is the most indispensa-
bic part of farm life. Half Of our liv-
ing should come from our garden in
summer. Not one-half the country peO-
pie make an effort to have a garden.
There are some that start out we'll in
the spring, SOW an abundance of seed
and never look at the garden again un-
till they think it is time they should
have results. They take look and cam
not find any for the weeds have covered
the little plants. Then they come to the
conclusion that the seed did not grow.
They say all sorts Of things about the
seedsmen, and NOW off the weeds and
wait until another spring, when they go
through the same process. Now this
Is all wrong. To keep the garden clean
we should begin early and continue the
cultivation until fall. 1t is impossible
to destroy all the weeds while we are
cultivating the early vegetables. Lit
tie patches of weeds around the garden
will produce seed enough to seed the
whole garden next year. We should try
to plan so as to keep all the ground oc-
cupied in the garden. 1t will require
but little more labor to cultivate a cab
bage or turnip in a vacant place than
simply to cultivate to keep down the
weeds. You can SOW lettuce in July
and it will be nice in the fall. Cabbage
and turnip can be transplanted into the
ground where the early peas and pota-
toes have grown; or you can set celery
and beets for winter use. Keep allthe
ground occupied. If clean cultivation is
given, as should be done, the weeds will |
be killed out and at the same time
good crop secured. Thinning out plants
is an important matter in gardening;
beets and carrots will not grow to any
size if left TOO thick. No vegetable but
the onion will stand cFowding. If the |
soil is rich enough onions will grow to
good size when five or six stand to-
gether; they will crowd each other out !
OF the ground all but the roots and will |
bottom nicely. The onion maggot de-
stroys onions badly; a good remedy is
to take the soil away from the bulbs no
matter II the little onions tip over; so
long as the roots are in the ground they
are all right. BY doing this the fly has
no chance to put it's eggs on the stalks
and then there are no maggots in the
bulbs.--Alrs. j. w. Feres, in Farm and
Home.

utilization of Refuse.

Buda-Pesth, one of the most progress
sive cities on the European continent,
owes not a little of it's prosperity to the
strict enforcement of it's sanitary rules.
The city requires among other things
that refuse be removed to the suburbs
in closed carts. The wagons are con-
veyed by horses to one of the suburbs,
where they are lifted off the truck and
put on fiat car by means of a travel
ing crane. This fiat car is taken out
considerable distance by steam To-
connective and lands the refuse near o
manufacturing establishment, where
it is mechanically assorted and the more
volatile material burned under a boiler,
which supplies 50 horse power to an
engine, to which a 3,000-volt, three
phase generator is directly coupled.
The electric current thus generated
is utilized to run the crane above men
toned and is transmitted to that point
by means Of two regular trolley wires,
with the earth as third circuit. The
machinery in this station runs several
other power circuits and furnishes light
to the entire colony. Another 100 horse
power engine vii be installed shortly
