GARDEN NOTES.

Do not hoe any kind of beans when the leaves are wet from rain or dew. To do this causes rust spots on the leaves.
 There are enough farmers vho do not raise beans to keep the price gen. orally at profitable figure. Each one shculd at least raise all that are need ed by his own family.
 Radish seed germinates quickly and the young plants grow very rapidly. It is possible to have radishes from spring to fall if the plot is made very rich. Every time a few radishas are pulled out drop a seed or two in the vacant places, first stirring the soil and smoothing with the hand after dropping the seeds.
 There is a right and wrong way to water plants. When sprinkling small plots of garden vegetables use plenty of water and make the ground wet It should be done in the afternoon. Early the next morning rake the surface Of the ground,not more than half Gn inch in depth. The loose earth will pre- vent the water from evaporating.
 Beets fer the table, for a late sup ply, can be planted until July. As beet seed germinates slowly, a small proportion of radish seed may 5e add ed, as the radishes will soon come through the ground and show the rows of beets, thus permitting the cultiva- tion of the rows before grass and weeds get possession. It is also an ex- cellent method of growing radishes, as they will be removed before ths young beets get a good start.
 The period of maturity for early gar den truck can be hastened ten or twelve days by inc1osing the garden tract with a wire fence on which is stretched cheese cloth Of any other cheap muslin or cambric. It nas been found by repeated experiments of skilful growers that this precaution

HINTS ABOUT MILKING.

1. Always confine COWS in the stable to be milked. It is better than hav- ing them chase one another around the yard.
 2. Have the stable clean, and have the COW clean, or you can't get clean milk. Lime and whitewash for walls and posts is a good thing. Land plas- ter is a good absorbent in the stable.
 3. Before commencing to milk, brush all loose dirt from the sides and udder of the COW.
 4. After little manipulation of the teats and udder, the milk is ready to ''come down." Then is the time to take it, and do not delay.
 5. Milk as rapidly as possible with out irritating or worrying the COW.
 6. No definite rule can be given as to how the teats should be handled in milking, as cows differ and hands diff please the COW if possible.
 z. There should always be a :riend- ly feeling between the COW and the milker, and milkers should not. De changed if it can be avoided
 8. A COW will not "give down" her milk to milker she hates or is afraid of, and what she does give will be de- ficient in butter fat.
 g. Always milk a COW in the same order and at the same time a day.
 Il. When it comes a cows turn to be milked, she knows it, and expects 1t, and wants to be milked.
 12. If you disappoint her and milk half an hour later, the chances are that you will get less and poorer milk than if you milked at the proper time.
 13. Always milk the COW dry before leaving her. but do not continue strip ping after the milk is all drawn
 IA. If part of the milk is left at each milking in the udder, nature will soon stop providing it because it IS not taken.
 15. The last milk drawn from a COW is much richer than the first. The last quart usually contains more than three times as much butter fat as the first.
 16. Milking should be done with clean, dry hands.
 Never close a can containing warm milk which has not been aired and cooled by turning from one can into another, stirred or dipped until the an- 1mal heat is entirely out.
 The buttermilk should be washed out of the butter and ample time be given for the water to drain out. It breaks the grain of the butter to try to work the buttermflk out.
 Cows that are not sa1ted regularly give less than the yield of milk of which they are capable and the cream of their milk Is more difficult to cnurn than that of the COW that has salt all she needs it. IT
 If milk is stored the vessel contain ing it should be kept in tanks of fresh cold water, the water renewed daily, and in a clean, dry room. Unless it is desired to remove cream it should be stirred with a tin stirrer often enough to prevent forming a thick cream layer.
 At this season the milk COWS are generally dependent solely on pasture age and if not looked after will some times come up at later hours than us ua1 to be milked. Regularity as to time of milking is most important, and if their usefulness is to be retained they must driven up, if necessary, in order to have them milked Tt the same hour every day.

PERSPECTIVE.

Cities are rebuilt and change their ap-
pearance almost as often as snake
changes its skin. The relentless march
of improvements, the shifting of popu-
lation the growth of business and the
whims of fashion sweep away block af-
ter block before they have attained to
anything like ripe old age. A few
lone sentinels always stand here and
there to mark and emphasize the fast
changing style of architecture. In these
one can read all the denominations of
stucco, ornamental iron, mansard roofs
and the hundred and one peculiar, fam
boyant and bizarre styles that have had
their day.
In the country and the town changes
are far less frequent Excluding, of
course, those unfortunate localities that
are exploited by the professional pro-
moter and boomer). Houses are built
with the intention that shall endure for
more than decade, and money is sell
dom available for useless and silly orn-
amentation. For this reason country
houses are better, in the main, than
those of the city. The decade that fol-
lowed the civil war, a period fatal to
architectural art in America, left its
mark over the whole length and breadth
of the land, and it dotted the country
side with Queen Anne villas and other
like monstrosities.

ARCHITECTURE.
Americas Cosmopolitan Taste
and the Old Colonial Type.
This is the First of a Series of Ten Arohl-
tectural Articles Written Expressly for
the Sunday Spy.
(Copvright. 1881


The architecture of a country is sup
posed to give good index of the char
acter of it's people. Although the gene.
raj style of the architecture may be
modelled upon the classical style of an
tiquity, it receives such notifications
through the tastes of the people, as wei
as from climatic and sociological condi
tions, as to give it national indiyidu
ahty. But America is more cosmopoli-
tan than any other nation; it has little
homogenity in its tastes and owing to
its great size, varying climate and its
very unequal distribution of population,
it can show little unity in the conditions
that affect architecture. This is the
reason why we have no national style
of architecture at present. We are cleo
tive in our tastes. We take a little from
one country and little from another
and it is not always the best that we
take, nor do the various things we Sc
lect always harmonic. In the early
days of the country conditions were
very different. Two races only were in
the ascendency--the English and the
Dutch-and between these two there
was much in common. There was then
evolved a thoroughly national style of
architecture-the colonial, worthy of the
country and dignified in its Characters
tics as any. Although colonial archi-
lecture ceased to have full sway seVe-
al generations ago, it has modified to
some extent all of the styles that have
succeeded it, and is responsible for much

ENEMIES OF PLANTS.
Market Gardeners Listen to Paper on In
sects by Prof. Kirkland.

The regular meeting of the Worcester
County Market Gardeners Association was
held Saturday afternoon in Horticultural
Hall, the feature being a paper on Tn
sects," by Prof A. H. Kirkland, formerly
of the Massachusetts Agricultural College,
but now of Maiden. His paper was lis
tened to with great attention, and was ex-
ceedingly instructive.
He stated that a high development had
been reached in the cultivation of plants,
and larger and better crops had been the
outgrowth of this increased knowledge of
cultivation, yet not all this was good, for
some evils had resulted in the weakening
of the plant life, making 1t more suscepti-
bic to disease and to insect attacks. The
more destructive creatures such as the
cut worm, the striped cucumber beetle
plant lice and the May beetle, he showed
to his audience by means OF several col
enormous increase declaring that could
the progeny of single female in a single
season be allowed to live, and should they
be put end to end, they would form gir-
die around the earth.
In combating all insects thoroughness
and persistence must be employed. Neg
lect or halfway treatment will be dtsap-
pointing in its results. The farmer should
himself be interested and familiarize him
self with the life history of the common
insects which he daily sees about him. He
should interest himself in the methods
employed by the various agricultural
schools and experiment stations for the
best means of Kidding himself of these
pests and he should rest short of nothing
less than thorough examination.
At the close of Prof. Kirklands paper a
discussion followed, in which Herbert
Cook of Shrewsbury and David Fiske of
Grafton participated.
