Use Of Corn Binders,

In regard to corn binders an Ohio cor
respondent Of Rural New Yorker says !:
l have used one for three years and am
well pleased with it. With our bundle
carrier we can cut and put up six to
seven acres per day, and two men can
set it up better than by the old way.
When corn stands up we'll and is not
too tall, it can be handled much nicer,
cheaper and easier than by hand and
very few ears are knocked off. In our
part of the state corn grows very tall
and we have found that the greatest
trouble is that the binder could not be
adjusted to suit all kinds, as the grain
binder can, but this trouble has been
overcome now, SO I understand, by sim
ply raising and lowering the platform
which holds the corn while the binder
ties it. Before, if the corn was tall, the
tie was SO low down that the corn
would lop in the middle, as it had no
support,

The Red Cross Currant.

This variety, Of recent introduction,
is receiving much commendation as a
valuable acquisition both for the fruit
grower and the private garden. Vick's
Magazine says Of it: The Red Cross is
a Seeding produced by Jacob Moore,
the well known originator of new fruits
and who is worthy of special respect
and congratulation for this achieve
ment. The seed was derived from the
Cherry currant artifcially crossed with
the White Grape currant. The Seeding
shows plainly, to some extent at least,
the influence Of both parents. 1t has the
large size and color Of berry of the
Cherry and the longer stem and milder
quality Of the White Grape. The plant
is strong, vigorous grower and very
productive, more so than either Of the
parent plants. Compared with the Fay
currant, the punches Of the Red Cross
are longer, and the berries hold their
size better to the end of the stem, aver
aging larger and more uniform. The ber-
ries are sweeter than the Fay or the
Cherry, the latter being particularly
acid. The Red Cross is remarkably pro-
ductive, and the clusters grow in groups
or masses instead of being singly dis
tributed over the plant, an arrangement
which favors rapid picking or gathering,
and another feature conducting to the
same end is the length of stem between
the spur and the fruit, allowing the
picker to take off the stems without in
reference Of the berries with the fin
gers. These are important points, espe-
oially to the commercial grower, as
they will be indicated in the expense
account at the end of season. Looking
over all the varieties of red currants
available for the market growers where
we find the Red Dutch, the Cherry, the
Victoria, Prince Albert, La Versailles,
North Star and Pomona, it will be seen
that the Red Cross surpasses each Of
these in one or more characteristic
points and is their equal in any partic-
nIar

Digging Early Potatoes.

Because the potato vines have died
down while the weather is still hot it
does not follow that it is best to dig the
potatoes until they lie in the soil long
enough to tougher the skin, SO that it
will not peel when handled. If dug
while the skin is still green and wet,
warm weather follows, we have known
large heaps of potatoes to be rotted down
in two or three days. The tops of pota-
toes should never be used in covering
heaps. Use straw and cover only very
thinly while hot weather lasts. It is
necessary that air should get to the po.
tatoes to dry them out quickly. But
there must be enough covering to ex-
clude sunlight, else the tubers will sun
burn. The difficulty of avoiding one or
the other of these dangers is the chief
reason for postponing the harvesting of
the great bulk of the potato crop until
cool weather late in September or even
into the following month.-American

DE.TRACED TO DIET.
From The Hospital.

From The Hospital.
DIR. Haig is of the opinion that sui
eide may be traced to error in diet, the
error being the eating Uf meat, the
drinking Of beer and of tea, and the
smoking of tobacco. His facts all fall
comfortably into their places In support
of his hypothesis. Are there not more
suici!es among men than among women
and do not men consume more meat,
more beer and more tobacco than the
women2 Again, suicide is more COM
mon in England than in Scotland, not
apparently because the Scotch are a
more canny race. but because the Eng
lish eat more meat and drink more
beer, while the Scotch eat less meat
and drink whiskey instead of beer.
After maintaining that suicide was less
common among the Scotch, it was per-
haps hardly polite, when addressing
Scotch audience, to 60 on to say that
suicide increased with civilization.
But the fact was explained on the
ground of more injurious diet, that of
civilized man being more productive Of
uric acid and thus of suicide than that
which prevails where civilization is less
advanced. Uric acid is, in fact, at the
bottom Of all this. and, according to
DIR. Haig, the incidence of suicide
tallies with the daily, annual, and life
fluctuations of uric acid in the blood,
being commonest when uric acid is
most abundant, namely, in the morn
ings, in spring and summer, and in
childhood and the full prime of life.
We have no doubt that errors of diet
are responsible for much, and, among
other things, for a certain number of
suicides: nay, wo would 60 further and
admit that unsuitable diet, derange-
ment of the proper relation between
nutrition and waste, and the conse-
quent loading of the tissues and the
blood with abnormal products of me-
taSolism, have much to do with that
ill-temper and discomfort which lead
men to lay. their hands violently often |
upon their neighbors, and sometimes
on themselves. All this may be taken |
for granted, but it is at present far from
proved that the peccant material is in |
all cases the same, and still further are
we from being agreed that uric acid is
the origin of the evil.

FALL PLANTED CABBAGE. :lIi:

Best Varieties When to Transplant.
Spring Setting.
Several readers having asked how
fall planted cabbage is handled for
spring setting, The Rural New Yorker
gives the following answer by the su-
perintendent of Burpee & Co.'S trial
grounds:
This method was largely used by
truckers before the south began ship
ping early cabbage. 1t is still somewhat
used by dealers and truckers who desire
the earliest plants. The best varieties
are Early Jersey Wakefield and Win
nigstadt. Seed Of these varieties is sown
outdoors from Sept. 10 to Oct. l..
Late in October the young plants are
transplanted to cold frames. At this
time they should be about two inches
in height and of short, stocky growth.
The plan is to set them in rows two
inches apart in each direction. The bed
or cold frame is just an inclosure of
plain boards set on edge. These boards
inclose the sides and support the cover
ing during the winter.
1t is not desired to have these plants
increase in size before spring. The idea
is to keep them in as nearly dormant
condition as possible. Therefore no COW
ering should be used until there is dan
ger from severe frost. 1t is not neces-
sary to use glass sashes, although these
are the best. Shuttergmade Of half inch
boards, reaching from side to side Of
the frame, will prove satisfactory.
1t is necessary to give an abundance
of fresh air on every possible occasion.
This is done by removing the sashes or
covering so as to keep the plants hardy
and stocky. The frame ought to be on
high, we'll drained soil. In very cold
weather addi. .onal protection is given
by placing manure around the outside
of the frame and laying old carpet or
straw mats over the sash or shutters.
In case of storms, snow may be allowed
to remain over the frames several days,
but on the first clear, mild day they
should be dug out and given fresh air
and sunlight.
These plants are we'll hardened from
their manner of growth and in the
spring may be set out as early as the
ground can be dug or pfowed. Near
Philadelphia they are generally planted
from March 90 to April /, if the weather
is at all suitable. They will not be in
jured at all by light frost.
