portrayed herewith. Girdling should
be done about four weeks in advance
of the usual time of ripening. The eff
feet is to cause rapid increase in the
size of the fruit and hasten its matur-
ity from ten to fifteen days.
In a series of experiments made at
the Massachusetts, agricultural college
it was found that the quality of fruit
was not injured by the girdaing nor
could any perceptible injury be discov-
cred to the vine. The ring of bark may
be removed rapidly with knife made
for the purpose. The use of strings or
wires twisted tightly around the canes
will probably answer the same purpose
as the removal of the ring of bark.
Only those canes that are to be cut
away entirely at the end of the season
should be girdled. The cane is girdled
at A and after fruiting is cut back to T..
leaving two cones &C and D. for the com
tinuation of the treatment. The cane
(B) is to be cut back to one or two buds
atthe fall or winter pruning.-Farm and

Blanco and columbu., Bones.

Marshal Blanco has received very
delicate mission from the Spanish gov
ernment. He has been commanded to
remove from their resting place in the
cathedral of Havana the remains of
Christopher Columbus and to bring
them back to Spain. It will be remem-
bered that Columbus, who died at
Valladolid, was first buried in the Car
thusian church of Las Cuevas, at Se-
vile. Twenty years later, in accord
ance with his expressed desire. his
body was sent to San Domingo or
Hayti, and inferred in the choir of the
cathedral. In 1896, on the cession of
Hayti to France, the body of the dis.
coverer was taken by the Spaniards to
Havana and buried in the cathedral
there with very great pomp. Early in
1873 box was found in the sacristy of
the cathedral of San Domingo con-
tanning a. quantity of bones and with
them certain documents tending to
show that they were those of Colum.

ORCHARD AND GARDEN.

Vigorous, thrifty, but low, stout trees
are preferable to tall, slender ones for
transplanting.
The time of planting is not so impor-
tant as to have the right varieties prop
erly transplanted.
Examine newly-set trees and see that
the lands left on them are not SO tight
as to injure the trees.
In the fall is good time to set out
rhubarb and asparagus plants. Every
garden should have good bed.
Pears to do their best must be fed and
the soil we'll drained, strong and reten-
tive. Locality should determine the va
riety.
Peach stocks, which continue to grow
freely may be budded as long as the
bark peels freely for the insertion of the
buds.
A good mulch keeps down weeds and
renders the soil loose and moist at all
times, and lessons the labor Of cultiva-
ton.
While old trees are often made more
fruitful by severe pruning, young,
thrifty trees are often injured by the
same treatment.
Now is good time to cut out all old
canes and all weak new growth among
raspberries and blackberries. leaving
,nly strong. vigorous plants or canes.
In sending fruit of good quality to
market sort carefully and put it up N
neat, attractive packages and in such
shape that It will arrive in good con-

ROOFING AN ORCHARD.
Il 10 Bes.e Ds.s 1. calssernia to Pre-
tect the Orange CfeD fPea
FreQuent Feosts.

Frost is a frequent feature Of orange
growing in California and many devices
for keeping it from harming the or
chards have been tried from time to
time with only partial success.
During the day the earth aud trees
become warm, but as the night cools
the atmosphere the process Of radiation
sets in and the heat from the earth and
the trees is carried off. the cold. frosty
atmosphere taking its place. This
warm air must not be allowed to es-
cape. The fact was evident that the
trees must be covered.
A fog would do this effectually. but
fogs cannot be manufactured to order.
The idea was conceived by Mr.. Ever
est of covering the orchard with canvas,
which could be rolled up in the morning
and let out at night. One acre was COW
cred in this way and it was found to be
expensive and unstable, as the canvas
would get wet and decay. Then Mr.
Everest thought of a covering Of leath-
er, and it was tried, was success and
to-day is an accomplished fact.
A visit to this ranch would remove
any doubts one might have regarding
the feasibility of the new plan. A dial
set in the ceiling of the house at the
head of the stairs indicates the direc-
tion of the wind at any time Of the
night or day. At another place can be
seen system of electric bells. These
ring when the thermometer has fallen
to dangerous temperature. The men
are then called up and process of fir
ing up is commenced. And yet with all
these precautions the frost has often
been too quick.
Now the trees are rooted in with cam
vas and laths. Although this shelter
has been used over but IS acres, the en-
tire ranch will be covered as soon as the
work can be done. Last spring the fruit
which was covered matured perfectly,
while that uncovered was more or less
injured.
The operation is perhaps considered
an expensive one, but when the value of
q crop is considered it is infinitesimal.
The cost is about $4OO to the acre. It
has been demonstrated that the tenn
perature is some five degrees higher
under cover than outside, with no fire
at all. while with a small fire the tenn
perature can be brought up eight de-
grees higher. With this cover the
rancher is absolutely sure of a crop
from any citrus orchard.-San Fran

FOUNDER OF THE RED CROSS.
a syyi.. Gentleman Who Spent a For.
tune and a Lifetime 10 Estab-
lish This Movement.

To Mr.. Henri Dunant, Swiss gem
tleman, belongs the honor of inaugu-
rating this movement. Being in Italy
at the time of The battle of Solferino,
June "a, 1859, he visited the battlefield.
Appalled, by the needless and terrible
suffering. he remained many days, do
ing all in his power to relieve it. Dur
ing these terrible days Mr.. Dunant
conceived the idea of system of or
ganized relief whereby aid could be
given under such circumstances. Re-
turning home he published little
book, called 'Recoliections of Solfer-
ino' that aroused great interest. His
appeal touched responsive chord in
all hearts. Being invited to address
the Geneva Society of Public Utility
on the subject, he unfolded to them his
plans. From that time forward he la
bored indefatigably to win adherents
to his cause, writing articles, deliver
ing addresses, travelling from place to
place, consulting officials high in au-
!hority at the European courts. .
By the provision of the Red Cross
treaty surgeons, nurses, ambulance
trains and all hospital supplies are
considered neutral. provided they dis
play uniform badge and flag accom-
panied by their national flag.
In compliment to Mr.. Dunant and
the Swiss government the protective
sign and the flag agreed upon was a
red Greek cross on white ground
the reverse of the Swiss flag. Turkey
alone has objected to this. Her sol.
diers, in their intense hatred of the
Christian symbol, refused to work un-
der banner with red cross, and they
were allowed to use a red crescent in
its place.
Mr.. Dunant is now about 70 years Of
age. Having spent half his fortune in
establishing the Red Cross. and having
lost the other hal: in unfortunate
business ventures. he lived for many
years, poor and forgotten. in plain
district infirmary in Switzerland, of
which he himself was the founder.
Now, however, through the pensions
granted him by the dowager empress
of Russia and the federal council of
Switzerland, and the generous gifts of
money sent him by the citizens Of
Stuttgart, Germany, he is spending a
peaceful old age in comfort and plenty.

AMERICAN APPLE JELLY.
1t IL Used a. the Base of Nearly All the
Various Jellies Put ON
the Market.

Apple jelly is used as the base of
nearly all the various jellies manu-
factured. American apple jelly is ex-
ported to every known part of the
world. In all ordinary jellies, sugar
plays the principal part, but in apple
jelly sugar is an unknown ingredient.
Apples as the raw material are not
used, but apple juice or cider is, and
it must be treated Immediately after
it comes from the press. A moderate
temperature is necessary for success,
for if the juice should begin to fer
ment, as it will very rapidly in warm
weather, the keeping quality of the
jelly is very materially injured, unless
it be mixed with considerable guam
tity of sugar. A temperature of Al
degrees Fahr. is the most suitable: if it
rises above &C degrees the manufac-
ture will at once stop.
In manufacture, the juice runs from
the press to the boiler, beneath which
a strong. steady fire is kept so as to
keep the juice at boil. With the boil
ing commences the Qualification, and
the acid it contains is neutralized by
the addition of dram of elutriated
chalk "a deposit Of a mixture of water
and chalk from which the liquid has
been decantedJ to each gallon of juice.
The chalk is mixed with the juice, and
soon makes its appearance on the sur
face in the form of thick scum. which
must be carefully removed.
The Juice is now boiled to the con-
sistency of 30 to 80 degrees Beaume,
which upon cooling will be found to be
the proper point for perfect jelly.
Each bushel of fruit will produce from
four to five pounds of jelly. Late fruit
is the most productive. Crab apples
produce the finest jelly, while sour,
ordinary fruit produces the best-look-
ing article. A mixture of all varieties
renders the most satisfactory results
as to flavor and quality.-American
Gardening.
