Witch grass can be destroyed in the
garden if persistent cultivating and
hoeing is continued one or two seasons.
1t will have much more effect to hoe
it off in August or latter part of the
season than it will in the spring. If it
is desired to make garden of piece
of ground badly infested with witch
grass, it is good plan to till it thor
oughly in the spring at two or three
different times, and then sow it to fod-
der corn in drills. Cultivate the corn
thoroughly and the witch grass will
trouble but very little the following
season, says the Maine Farmer.

A good way to make hay caps is to
take stout unbleached cotton sheeting,
81 or AS inches wide Cut it into
squares; attach to each corner, by a
string or otherwise, a wooden pin, ~
or 15 inches long cut off smooth at one
end and rounded at the other. The pin
should be one inch in diameter, These
caps are very useful as a protection
against rain and heavy dews. In unfa
vorable seasons the caps will pay for
themselves in one year. New England

desire to have their mail by that time
the clerks consider Is minutes to short
a time to distribute the two heavy
mails and such was the fact. The
night mails will hereafter be left at
Hailowell and all may be sure of their
mail by at least O'Clock.

Work on the new reservoir at the
city farm is now well underway. A
Journal reporter visited the scene of
operations. and from Superintendent
Lord, who has charge of the work,
learned that good progress was being
made.
There were rs horses and As men at
work and quite good deal OF work is
daily accomplished. although it APP
pears, from the large Nrea of the dig
gings, that but little has been done.
The earth is being dumped on the
north, south and east sides of the pond
and as the depth will be greatest on
tine east side. about nine feet, excava-
ton is chiefly made there. The land
beyond the reservoir has been pIouphed
up and all muck" and vegetation is
being removed. The extreme width Of
the reservoir will be about PIG feet. al
though the teams are working over an
area of three or four acres.
To use "a semi-technical term the
sides of the reservoir are to be Trip
raped, or paved with blocks of
granite. The eastern wall will be of
granite, and will have a waste way.
1t is expected that the reservoir viii
be completed in about four weeks, Its
capacity will be. more than 5000 900
gallons. The small reservoir on Win
throp street, which was constructed
many years ago, is to be rebuilt.
