BUSTING FURNITURE.
Feather Busters Should Not BE Used,
Because There Are Other and
Far Better Ways.

Dust is always a grief of mind to the
careful housewife, who, like the virtu-
Gus woman of holy writ, looketh well
to the ways of her household.
1t hath all seasons for its own, and
the only way to conquer it is to pursue
il steadily. A feather duster is an
abomiration except for the tops of pic
lures, etc. since it only stirs up the dust
from one spot in order to allow it to set
tie on another, while wiping with a
damp cloth, which in any but judicious
hands is apt to be wet one, is too apt
to smear the furniture. All furniture
should be busted regularly, with due
regard to the corners, where most of
the dust accumulates.
The best thing for carved furniture
is soft, thick paint brush, which will
get into all the interstices of the pat
tern. When these are clogged take an
other brush, wet with kerosene oil, to
clean them out. After using the oil
rub dry with soft cloth. Flannelette
makes the best dust clothes, and
squares of it are now sold ready
hemmed for the purpose in our large
stores.
For highly-polished surfaces use
chamois skin. And be sure to keep your
chamois clean. 1t can be washed with

very little trouble, only be sure to hang
1t up carefully to dry, wringing well,
and then pulling into shape. The bam-
boo beater is the best thing for rugs
and portieres, but it is useless to beat
upholstered furniture. A stiff whisk
should be used, and all crevices should
be well brushed out and the lint and
dust brushed off after this is done. 1t
is wonderful how much dust a tufted
chair can hold-no wonder maid and
mistress alike wonder where the dust
comes from, for summer, winter,
whether it blows in at the open window
or Sits up through furnace fiues; like
the grass of the poem, it comes "creep-
ing everywhere" and finds Judgement
In every inch of space exposed.
Now that bookcases with glass doors
are no longer fashionable, books are
usually open to the dust, and need sys-
tematic and careful attention to pre-
serve them from damage. They should
be taken from the shelves at least once
or twice month, and wiped with soft,
dry cloth, which should be shaken out
of the window repeatedly during the
work of busting. Remember always
that in brushing dust from an object
you scatter it, but wiping it off with a
cloth you gather it UP and remove it al
ogether.-Chicago Times Herald.

TRAINING THE GRAPES.
The Hudson Horizontal System De-
scribed and Explained by
Prof. E. G. Lodeman.

This typical form of horizon tai grape
training may be found in a number of
vineyards situated near the Hudson
Ii inches high. From its upper part
cane is carried to the top of the trellis,
and then it is bent toward one side and
tied to the top wire of the trellis. 1t
is made long in order that the plant
may be supplied with proper num-
Der of buds. The trellis carries only
two wires, the lowest being about two
AID one-half feet from the ground, the
top one about three feet above the first.
These wires are not designed to bear
directly the weight of the vines, but
Stats are fastened to them, and these
Stats support much of the weight of the
fruit and foliage. One slat, lath, is
placed on each side of the vine and
about foot from it. The lath is
s,apled SO that only a few inches pro-
ject below the lower vine, while about
foot extends above the upper. AS
tie shoots in early summer become
long enough to allow of their being
tied to these upright Stats, they are
SO fastened as to be held in practically
a horizontal position. Frequently two
more Stats are used, one being placed
about ~ inches from each of those at
first put on; eventually the shoots are
also tied to these; such upright pieces
should be considered as forming an
integral part of the trellis. They are
firmly stapled to the wire, and remain
there until they decay or become
broken.
Notifications of this system are
found both in American and European
vineyards. In the Hudson river val
ley the vertical Stats are sometimes
absent, but two or three extra wires
on the trellis answer the same pur-
pose. AS the shoots from the upright
cane develop they cling to the wires
without the aid of summer tying, or
at most but very little of this work is
done. The shoots in consequence do
not assume perfectly horizontal
position, but they ascend at an angle
of about As degrees. The bearing
portion of the vine is renewed each
year. In several of the large vine
yards of the Midoc, near Bordeaux,
France, a system is found that is sim
liar, in many respects, to the Hudson
system. The one essen tial difference is
that the upright cane is there per-
manent, and it forms a vertical arm,
or Gordon, which is spurred from each
side, the spurs being kept as short as
possible.
The shoots which annually grow
from these spurs are fastened hori-
zontally to the wires of the trellis, the
number of wires varying from four to
six or more, as the vigor of the plants
may require; the distance between the
wires is from 12 TO Is inches. This sys-
TEN is equivalent to vertical Gordon,
form which is commonly used on walls
and in certain greenhouses. 1t has also
been termed an upright stock with
alternate spurs," the description of the
system being fairly well included in the
name.
