We know in a dull sort of way that
lemons are useful, but just how valu-,
able they really are few OF us realize.
A teaspoon Of lemon juice in cup
of black coffee will drive away an at
tack OF bilious headache, but it is bet
ter TO use them frsaly and SO avoid
the attack Of headache. These facts
help in beauiifying one. for who can
be beautiful and ailing at the same
time2 The days are past when the
delicate woman with nerves" was
the heroine Of all the novels and the
''cliuging Vine supposed to lie adj
mired by all the men.
Lemons taken externally, or rather
used, will aid in identifying any one.
There is nothing more valuable for
the toilet table than a solution of
lemon Juice; little rubbed on the
hands, face aud neck at night will not
only whi,en but soften the skin. A
paste made Of maglesia and lemon
juice applied to the face and hands
upon lying down for a fifteen minutes
rest will bleach the skin beautifully.
For discolored OF stained finger.
nails teaspoonful Of lemon juice in a
cup of warm soft water is invaluable;
this is one of the very best manicure
acids. It will loosen the cuticle from
the finger nails as well as remove dis
colorations.
Lemon juice in wateris an excellent
tooth wash. This is about the only
thing that will remove tartar 1t will
also sweeten the breath. louisville

soil should be deeply broken and we'll
pulyerized. For early cabbage the
rows may be marked of about 80
inches apart; for larger varieties
little wider, and the plants IL inches
apart in the row. To give the plants
an early start, work into the soil
about them about gill Of commercial
fertilizer. When setting. il the soil
ia not fairly damp some water should
be used about the plants. Set the
plants down quite TO the leaves
and press the soil well about the roots
then a little loose dirt over this. This
prevents evaporation and the plant
from scalding. The cultivation should
begin early, befrequent and thorough,
TO obtain rapid and large growth
Stir the soil at first close about the
plants, as they grow larger, cultivate
shallow, just TO break the crust and to
keep down the weeds.
As 10 insects aud worms, which are
SO destructive among cabbage, aud
which are so difficult TO successfully
combat, we can only recommend CON
slant vigilance and the use Of the
best known means for destroying
them, among which slug-shot is rec
commended. Agricultural Epitome.

The fruit grower does not appreciate
the value of "A colony Of bees as rule,
but on the other hand is inclined 10
look upon them as a detriment. 1t is
a well known fact that bees seldom if
ever disturb fruit that has not pre-
siously been injured by birds OF in
sects, while the value Of the bees us
pollen distributors is well known.
Among orchard fruits especially bees
are of great value, as has been proved
by many fruit growers, who, until the
advent Of the bees, had been unable
to obtain full crops or large fruit ow-
ing TO the imperfect fertilization of
the blossoms by other means. In the
peach orchard, where the pollen is
scant aud many Of the blossoms OBJ
tain little or none through the agency
of wind Or insects, the bees will prae-
tieally solve The question Of falling
fruit, which is mainly due to lack OF
vitality from the imperfect fertiliza-
ton of the blossoms. 1t will be neces-
sary to avoid the use Of the spray

The test of milk should not be con
fined to ones idea of its richness
Judging from its appearance, for there
is no sure test but that made with the
perfected tester. If dairymen will
use such they will be surprised to
learn that some of their best mixers
are giving a supply very deficient in
richness. The sooner this class of
cows are disposed of the sooner tile
dairy will be on paying basis. If
these Improbable cows cannot be dis
posed of in any other way, turn them
into beef, and if possible raise the
herd from the stock which meet the
test as to richness of milk. If sew
eral of them meet the test fairly and
continuously under a moderate ex-
pense for food, they will form the
foundation for profitable herd. The
other animals should be turned off
quickly. Even if two of them have
TO be given for one whose milk will
come up to the test it will be pay
lug trade.

Most of the apple trees from nur-
series are root graftel. 1t is so much
more convenient to do this the first
season than later that niue-tenths of
the apple trees for sale are grated
then and allowed to root from the
graft, as is certain to do when trans
planted. No doubt there is a greater
uniformity in trees grown by this
method than if each Seeding were al
lowed TO grow as it would and then
be top grated when high enough to
form head. Many farmers believe
flat when tree is top grated it will
come in bearing sooner than one
grated on a little piece of root and
allowed to make the whole stock from
the ground up. IT is probable that
the root-grafted trees are given better
cultivation than those top grated, the
latter being usually stray seedlings in
out-Of-the-way places, and therefore
getting very little cultivation.
