HOrtiCulture.

Plants taken to the cellar should
have air, lest the foliage decay and
breed fungi on the ripened wood.
Cut off the dry leaves and any de-
caying matter there may be about
them.
Four or five vigorous raspberry
canes in each hill are sufficient for
best results. Remove not only the
old canes, but the weak and unthrif-
ty ones.
Try TO have a perfect growth of
fruit rather than enormous crop !;
then it is not at all unlikely that a
large crop will be obtained also.
Thin too much rather than have
them too thick. TO reach the high
est perfection they must not be over
crowded.
If you have bit of spare ground
plant fruit tree there; after while
IL will produce something. Meantime
it is adding something to the value
of the farm.
From 25 to 80 large wagon loads of
manure to the acre each year are
none too much for the garden. To
stint plot in this regard is to be
disappointed. Use all you can buy
or beg
Some farmers will tell us that they
consider their apple orchards the
best paying part of their farms. One
of the first things buyer will ask is
whether or not the place is well
stocked with fruit. Is your orchard
old and not good for much? Would
you not be better starting one in a
new spot? Do you not regret that
you did not start one five years ago?
We should not take it for granted
that by crowding the ground we can
make up for bad culture. 1t is bet
ter to have plants thinned out too
much than to have them too thick.

DEATH PENALTIES OF THE WAR.
Crimes Which May Bring Ingominious
Punishment.

Crimes Which May Bring IngOminiOus
Punishment.
Martial law" is vague term to
the great body of our citizens; in
deed not one in a thousand of those
who have recently donned uniforms
and marched away to fight for their
country have any just conception of
what it means. Not only does the
soldier face death at the hands of
the enemy, but he stands in danger
of meeting it, attended with eternal
disgrace at the hands of his friends,
if he violates any one of several arti-
cles of war.
The impetuous volunteer, burning
with hatred of Spain, who fails to
respect flag of truce borne by an
approaching enemy, to whom it
vOuchsafes protection, merits and
generally receives death. A court
martial has no discretion in the
matter. Breaking a safeguard" is
regarded as one of the most serious
crimes known to military law.
Sleeping on post" figures as No.

dlers are familiar with the provisions

this statute it is open to a senior Of
ficer to insult or humiliate juniO",
or for the junior officer to gOad a

death. Following are a few of the
other offenses for which death is
provided:

Dairy.

If grain is fed to cows while on
pasture, let it be with the view of
making bone, muscle and strength.
So far as its influence will be shown
upon milk and butter, it is very
doubtful if grain directly pays when
fed to mich cows which receive all
the fine grass they need. There is
no food which will take the place
of good, rich grass. The finest
grain mixture ever devised will not
answer so well.
The average farmer studies i'm
provement in all other lines before
he takes an interest in the business
of making butter; yet the dairy
brings a revenue which is always
cash, and almost continuous. Its
product has seldom to seek buyer,
ana it exhibits a vitality in time of
depression greater than almost any
other product that the farmer sells.
There is no profit in unscientific
work in this progressive day. 1t
will be a safer plan to sell your COWS
than to go ahead without a good
thermometer, a trustworthy tester,
or if you are unwilling to school
your intelligence to the utmost
within your power. While your
pasture is good test your handsomest
cows, for they may not be paying
for their keeping, You may con.
clude it wiser to let some one else
have them,
Four good Jerseys should bring
you at least 20 pounds of butter a
week, worth, in most markets, %

with digestion, and consequently
with the laying on of fat; it makes
horses bad tempered and wear them
selves out, to say nothing of their
stable floors.
A man will look after good stock
more carefully than after a lot of
scrubs, every time. Good stock,
therefore, has an added value in
that it increases the owners interest
in his possessions.
One may be busy and yet do moth
ing. 1t is certainly waste time when
a farmer loses a half hour day
doing his feeding because he lacks a
few conveniences.
A good cistern, made with a filter,
and large enough to hold all the
water from the barn, will furnish
drink of the right temperature for
the stock, both summer and winter.
Even If it does not make much of
a show, strand IF barbed wire on
top OF the fence will often restrain
breechy or unruly cattle and horses
better than an additional board or
rail.
If oats straw is clean and bright it
makes good food for horses and
saves just so much hay. 1t is not
much more work to run the bundles
of oats through the hay cutter than
to thrash them.
In feeding stock, remember that
every crop fed on the farm has two
values-its feeding value and it's
manural value. The man who gives
no heed to the second will tind in
time that he has been neglecting the
more important of the two.
The grade animal is bound to
breed your herd down instead of up.
He has but little power to transmit
his finer qualities to his progeny,
from whatever thoroughbred an
cestor he may have come. The
animal he begets will have his APP
pearance, style and qualities in a
lesser degree than his own.
Keep a record of every animal
bred upon the farm. The date of
breeding being known, better at
tention is assured to the animal. II
you are grading up, the pedigree
becomes important with each pure
does not exact much time nor
trouble, ana is for this reason, per-
haps, neglected.
Oil meal mixed with chopped hay,
straw or fodder doubles its value.
1t not only adds to its natural
properties, but will also improve
the appetite, health and vigor of all
kinds of stock. 1t will show in
their appearance and in their move
ments.
While the raising of stock will en-
rich our soil and renew its produc-
tiveness, it will market the farm
products better than to ship the
feed away.
To get manure we must have cat
tie; to raise cattle we must have
grass; to grow the grass we must
have manure. Agriculture is one
endless rotation.

POULTRY.


If you expect to preserve the
vigor of your fowls put new blood
into your flock every year.
Filth is the bane of your hennery.
Clean up the houses and yards fire.
quently, and you will have but little
trouble from diseases.
Whether chicks are Matched I'M
der hens or in incubators, any diff
ference which appear as they grow
up is due to feed and management.
1t seems evident that many of the
diseases among fowls are due to the
lack of hard, sharp grit. When
they have bowel disorders change
the fooo for few days, and change
the grit.
1t is better to have several sails
drawing than to depend upon one
for financial navigation. Though
we find our hens paying better than
our cows, it would be unwise to sell
our cows aud put all our money in
hens.
There is no easy road to success
in anything. We cannot begin even
poultry keeping with the vague no.
tion that it is an easy way to make a
living, and that the hens do all the
work There will be failure. To
keep fowls free from disease and
vermin needs constant attention,
and a good deal of very dirty and
very disagreeable manual labor.
Charcoal for the hens can be pre-
pared at home, out of corn. The
drier the corn the better it will char.
Put the ears in baking pan in the
oven and let them remain until they
are burnt black and crisp. The
fowls will eat it greedily, and should
have it at least once week. 1t is
especially good for overfed hens and
for chicks which have any tendency
to bowel troubles. OF course, for the
little ones it should be broken up be-
fore feeding. Charcoal is one of the
little essentials" and must not be
forgotten. We forget too many
things in raising poultry.

stock.

Sheep will fill the bill better on
the rough, billy farm, for it may not
be the place for the heavier breed of
cattle, the largest draft horses or
good hogs; but if you do not have
large beeves, fine dairy stock, heavy
draft horses and the best of hogs on
your rich, level farm, you have no
business with it.
Have the meals for the stock on
time; irregularitv interferes with
secretion of milking dairy cows !;

What is the use of making a better
article than your competitor if you can
not get better price for it?
Ans.-As there is no difference in the
price the public viii buy only the bette
so that while our profits may he small
er OH a single sale they will be much
greater in the aggregate.
How can you get the public to know
your make is the best?
If both articles are brought prominent
ly before the public both are certain to
be tried and the public will very quick
ly pass judgment on them and use only
the better one.
