THE KITCHEN WASTE.
1t Make. the Richest Kind of Fer.
tilixer for Flower Beds and All
Garden Crops.

There is no necessity for throwing
the waste from the kitchen into the
drain from the house, and to do so is
absolute waste of valuable fertilizing
material. Dishwater, soapsuds and
all such waste products make the best
kind of fertilizers for grape vines, cur
rant and gooseberry bushes and trees,
and vegetable parings may be put to
good use by being kept separate,
cooked and mixed with bran as feed
for pigs and chickens.
The richest kind of fertilizer that
can be made Cor flowers and garden
crops is to make a fiat pile of sods, lawn
clippings and other such material, on
which is thrown the soapsuds and dish
water and other liquid waste from the
kitchen and house. This compost pile
should be turned over once in awhile
SO as to become thoroughly mixed and
rotted together, and then use where a
quick and thrifty growth is desired.
All garden crops require an extra
amount of plant food because they
have been bred to make quick
growth, and are ravenous foragers in
every case. There is not single gar
den crop that is not benefited by fer
tilizing, no matter how fertile the soil
may be. Cabbages, tomatoes, cucum-
bers and melon vines. beets, onions,
lettuce. and radishes respond to extra
fertilizing very promptly, and if the
kitchen and house waste is utilized the
average family makes enough of this
waste in year to fertilize the garden.
Soapsuds and dishwater are both
rich in potash. and the garden crops
take to them very kindly. If employed
IN this way the waste may be put to
good use. instead of clogging up the
drain and creating an unpleasant and
disease-breeding odor through the
warm months.-Farmers' Voice.

How to Market Pear..

The pear is one of the finest fruits
that we have. and when picked at the
proper time and we'll ripened it is a
delicious morsel. We're it rot for the
blight to which many varieties are SUBJ
ject it would be planted more large
ly than it is. The pear should never
be allowed to ripen on the tree. but
should be picked several days before
ripening and sent Immediately to
market. If retained few days, they
soon begin to soften and are liable to
bruise in carrying to market. marring
their appearance and injuring their
sale. In order to obtain the top price
for pears send them in new clean crates
of one bushel in each crate, wrap each
pear in thin, clean white paper. and
pack closely together.

Literature Of Hort,cult.re.

It will be necessary to use very nice
judgment in applying the principles
which govern tree growth and fruit
production; but in these days of abun-
dant horticultural literature and ex-
cellent books Oil orchard economy, no
one ought to be at loss to know what
to do for the best under his own con-
titions. No two cases, are exactly
alike. Advice for your neighbor would
be wholly inapplicable under your
conditions. Every man must work out
his own salvation in temporal as we'll
as in spiritual things. and the plum
will go to the man who applies lib
eral dressing of brains to his land

OF the court, which completely up
set the method of procedure in the

when lands had been once been bid

they could not again be offered for
sale for the delinquent taxes of any
subsequent year. This was directly
ontrary to the method OF procedure
in the auditor generals Office for
nearly 40 years. and it was claimed
lhat an enormous loss To the stale
would result il the court adhered to
its opinion a rehearing was order

in the case before. now wrote an
opinion ia which the former decision
IS upheld on every point. The other
