anod PoInts About Penohes.

p. M. Augur, in Farm and Home,
writes: The essential elements of sue
cess with peaches are: 1. Seed from
natural pits, free from any faint of dis
ease, with equal care in getting buds;
2. Healthy trees, planted on high, dry
land, where no peach trees have stood
before, with moderate, clean culture
up to July, yearly (not afterward) so as
to secure only well ripened wood in
autumn. 8. The yearly application of
some perfect manure, potash included
These things are all important. There
are few other points which I desire
to emphasizes: First, the practice of
moderation in the early years Of a
peach orchard, to be followed after ma
turity by very liberal management.
Second, never let an orchard bear a
breaking crop; moderate crop Of large
peaches is more valuable than a very
heavy crop Of small peaches; besides,
1t Is far less exhausting. Again, the
practice of cutting back the branches
so as to reduce the number of bios

orous wood to bear fruit the succeed
ing year. Last spring l made an ap-
plieation of 500 pounds per acre OF fish
and potash, to each ton consisting of
1,4OO pounds Of ground fish and 500
pounds of potash. My leading object
was to plant between the peach rows
strawberries for plants and fruiting,
but the effect upon the eight-year-old
peach orchard was excellent. The fruit
upon these trees was perhaps as fine as
ever had, and the growth and prom
Use next year are the best. This was
only a part Of the orchard, and seri-
ously regretted that it had not been
over 1t all. From this experience, and
what have observed elsewhere, have
no hesitation in recommending some
quick-acting heterogeneous fertilizer in
connection with the other elements in
mature or declining peach orchard.
Another practice popular in Michigan
and undoubtedly beneficial, is the early
sowing Of rye in August to serve as
winter mulch, and in spring to be
turned under as manure. With our oc-
casional warm spells in winter, the use
Of some means to act as a mulch, and

Menace to Hortloulture.

In view of the first appearance in
this country Of the San Jose scale, hav-
ing been on the Pacific coast, and as
illustrating the necessity for more
stringent laws to prevent the spread of
noxious insects and fungous diseases,
we desire to call the attention Of our
readers to the fact, as published in
leading California newspaper, that
upon the recent arrival in San Fran
cisco of shipment of Australian APP
pies, the fruit was found to be infested
with a species of miner" a new pest
that tunnels through the fruit instead
Of burrowing into the core like the cod
ling moth, says Texas Farm and
Ranch. Quarantine papers were inn
mediately served, and the apples were
subsequently destroyed by fire on a va
cant lot close to the steamer. The ac-
count states that there has never been
anything seen like it before, and no ac-
count can be found recorded Of such a
pest. Photographs were made showing
its meanderings under the skin of the
fruit. The fact that such a pest has
been permitted to even land upon our
shore suggests possibility. The same
article goes on to show that the guar
antine officer, Craw, also destroyed a
number of cherry trees on their arrival
from Japan, infested with a small new
scab (aspidiotus albopunctatus). This
is said to be the first time it has been
found in the cherry, and that 1t attacks
the orange as well as deciduous trees.
After stating that certain vessels are
being overhauled for trees, fruits and
plants, the report continues: at is
hard to foretell what may be discov-
cred upon them, as these steamers in
variably bring shipments of trees,
fruits and plants infested with pests
not before observed on this coast"
These dangers should, we think, sug-
gest proper disposition of a portion
of those millions for Defense"

Owing to the inhabitants of Sweden
being very partial to the eggs OF the

the breed will be greatly diminished,
If not at last totally extirpated. The

seen for sale in large numbers In the

CaBbages In Winter.

The old plan Of burying or putting
cabbage in trenches during winter or
for winter use has become obsolete,
and more simple and easy plan has
been adopted. American Gardening
explains this as follows: Where cab
bage is grown on a large scale for
shipping purposes, the best plan is to
lift the cabbages and stack them two
tiers deep and as closely as they can
be placed in an orchard, or wood, il
convenient, and cover with leaves to
the depth Of two or three inches, the
leaves to be kept in place by
slight covering Of earth. In this way
the heads will keep perfectly sound all
winter, and they can be easily taken up
as wanted for shipping. For family
use cabbages can be kept in the same
way, only it will not be necessary to
make the second layer. 1t is quite i'm
portant to keep them a little below the
freezing point. 1t has been suggested
to keep them in some convenient build
ing, but this plan has always resulted
in failure, as the dry atmosphere is
fatal. Cabbage must be kept moist and
cool. The slightest whiting renders 1t
unfit for the table.
Wheat in the South.-The Dixie Mil
Ter, Nashville, Tenn, says: Six weeks
ago indications pointed to the seed
ing Of the largest area of wheat ever
sown in the South. 1t is needless to
say that the drought has largely up
set these calculations, while many
small growers will SOW little or none,
owing 20 the high prices of seed wheat.
Conditions have improved some during
the last week, as We have had light.
though general rains. This will only
help the situation insofar as the wheat
already sown is concerned, as wheat
sown now can not promise good re-
turns with any degree of certainty.
With all these hindrances we believe
80 per cent, or perhaps an average
area, will be sown. However, we must
not lose sight Of the fact that so far
it has made little progress, and, should
we have cold weather early, will 20 in.

Window Box wonders.

There are few things more enjoyable or
as fascinating watching the growth
of seeds or plants that have been placed
in the bosom of mother earth by ones
own hand, and the delight is often more
keen when one has the control of a spade
full of loan than if the acres were count
ed by the hundred For city people, even
when living in fiat, there is no need to
be narrowed down to the growing of
flowers alone. lovely as they are, when
such delicious crisp possibilities as rad
ishes, lettuce and cucumbers may be
grown in box outside sunny window.
The first weeks in May (now is the
very mick of time') is right to sow

and left for a few days to mellow in the

the only tool needed after the ground is
prepared is lead pencil, or the like, just
to lightly spread the earth over the
seeds.
Drilling is merely sowing in rows, and
when the young plants begin to peep
above the earth they must be thinned
out to leave inches for each full-grown
radish planted. If the earth is properly
warm and moist, radishes will peep up

OF course, Webster was in demand by
those who could afford to pay for his ser

have got the better of the great defender
of the Constitution in an amusing way,
however, according TO the Boston Journal
He had a small case which was to be tried
at Nantucket one week in June, and he
posted to Webster's office in great haste
1t was contest with a neighbor over a
matter of considerable local interest, and
his pride litigant was at stake. He
told Webster the particulars, and asked
what he would charge to conduct the
case.
Why" said Webster. you can't afford
to hire me. I should have to stay down
there the whole week and my fee would be
more than the whole case is worth. /
couldn't go down there for less than 81 coo.
l could try every case on the docket as
well as one and it wouldn't cost any more,
for one case would take my time for the
entire week. anyway
"All right. Mr.. Webster" quickly re-
sponded the Nantucketer Here's your
$1,0o0. You come down and I'll fix it so
you can try every case
Webster was so amused over this prop
osition that he kept his word He spent
the entire week in Nantucket and appear
ed on one side or the other in every case
that came up for hearing The shrewd
Nantucketer hired Daniel Webster out to
all his friends who were in litigation and
received in return about 81. 500, so that he
got Webster's services for nothing and
made q good deal, to boot.

Victory at last came the Senators way
