outside temperature has little effect
on them. There are others, however,
that seem to be greatly affected by
the general state of the weather. This
is of great moment, as, if it be found
that an incubator responds too quick
ly to outside influences it will be nee
essary to place it in the cellar OF
some other place where the tempera'
ture is uniform, or at least changes
but slowly.
We believe there is less danger Of
the eggs being injured by too little
heat than by too much. We have
seen hens leave their nests in the
early spring and stay away till il
seemed that the eggs must all be
chilled, and yet the same biddies
would bring out full brood OF
chicks from the eggs so treated.
AS to the thermometer, be sure that
it is correct. There will be no gain
in saving money on cheap ther.
mometer and losing it in whole
drawer of eggs. If cheap thermom.
eter can be obtained that is reliable,
it will be as good as one that is ex.
pensive, but see to it that it is in
every way reliable, no matter what il
costs. FARMERS Review.

The Population of Palestine.

The promulgation of an order of the
Turkish Government restricting i'm.
migration into Palestine has led to in.
quiry as to what is the cause of such o
measure. By the census taken
previous to the last one-the census
Of 1S56--there were 100000 in.
habitants Of Palestine, and the popu.
lation at that time was considered
stationary. By the last estimate the
population of Palestine was 2, III, 900,
and this increase was shown in the
large cities as we'll as in the country
districts. Ten years ago there were
$4,000 residents in Jaffa; to-day there
are nearly 10000. The present popu
lation of Damascus is $50, 900, and OF
Jerusalem Al, 900. Since the Russian
prosecutions of the Jews there has
been large immigration into Pales.
tine from Russia, and the increase OF
population has been further augmented
by the agitation of Zionism. New

1t is encouraging to read the report oi
The Government committee appointed to
consider the advisability OF doing away
with the sale Of beer at immigrant stations.
The committee is emphatic In favor OF

immigrants to be very much the worse fol

which they landed, though they had not
been out Of the immigrant station. The
parties having the monopoly OF the sale OF

City, 1t is said, In spite of the promises
which they have made again and again,
are selling no tea, coffee or milk, though
women and children are kept there for
hours. The sale of beer is the profitable
traffic, and nothing but beer Is to be had.
Every prominent official at the New York
Barge Office agrees that "it would be far
better" II this sale we're stopped. DR.. Sen.
ner, the Chief Commissioner, Alderman and
not total abstainer, declares that all the
trouble he had with his employees there

sugar-Bcet Leaves and Tops.

The beet leaves and that part of the
beet cut off in topping" are consid-
cred very valuable for feeding. 1t
has been discovered, however, as
stated in the special Government re-
port on the sugar beet industry, that
this course has tendency to exhaust
the soil, and it is better to allow the
tops and leaves to remain on the field
to act as fertilizer and thus preserve
the soil. Much of the more valuable
part of the elements contained in the
sugar beet which the soil needs for
recuperation is the top and leaves.
This fact has become so thoroughly
well known to the factories of this
country that some of them even stipu-
late in the contracts with the farmer
that the leaves and tops shall remain
on the ground, which seems to be a
wise provision. Connecticut Farmer.

Treatment of Trees After FEELING.

If timber is to remain in the log as
export timber, etc, peel, cover the
the ends with cheap paint and always
place on skids. Work up any kind of
timber as soon as possible. Never
leave any wood, not even cordwood,
piled on the ground. Raise it on
crosspieces, and, if it is valuable mate
rial, such as wagon or other stock,
pile with care, give to all parts of the
pile chance for circulation of air, and
if possible cover the pile to shut out
the direct sun. Thick material must
have thick crosspieces, and all sawed
material given to warping must be
piled with special care. The cross
pieces must be ample in thickness as
we'll as in number, and must be regu-
larly placed.
In ordinary yard seasoning, zone
year for every inch in thickness" is an
old rule. Inch stuff of hard woods
can be seasoned well by air drying six
months and then placing them in dry
kiln or hot room. Conifers of all kinds
can be dried very well by placing in
dry kiln fresh from the saw. Dry.kiln
seasoning disinfects lumber and
thereby does much to increase dura-
bility (E. B. Fernow, Circular 20 for

old custom. 1t also improves the sap

drates to be removed by fermentation

stroying fungi. Boiling and steam
ing, it is claimed, serve a similar pur-
pose, and that all water treatments
facilitate seasoning. Experiments on
large scale have not proven encour-
aging in this respect. The common
assertion that rafting and hot-water

its strength is entirely unsubstantia-

Berry Culture.

Every farmer should raise enough
berries to supply the family all the
year. There is nothing more delicious
and healthy than strawberries, rasp-
berries and blackberries, and no other
crop ON the farm pays as we'll for the
small outlay and the land they re-
quire. September is the month to
plant them, and when this is properly
done a good crop eau be grown the
first year.
A northern slope that will drain
we'll is best. A great many make the
mistake of getting the soil too rich for
strawberries, and get big crop of
vines with very little fruit. Land that
will grow a good crop of corn is just
right, and when properly planted and
cultivated will always produce plenty
of fine berries. The soil should be
cleared of all weeds and rubbish, we'll
pulverlzed with disk or cultivator and
harrow, and then plowed deep and
thoroughly pulverized after plowing.
Mark rows three feet apart, and set
the plants in deep, putting half pint
of water with each plant, and packing
the dirt firmly around the roots. Late
in the fall they should be mulched
with clean straw, marsh hay or corn
stalks. In the spring hoe or cultivate
shallow, but not after the plants be-
gin blooming, as it will cause them to
rust.
For raspberries the soil cannot be
made too rich, and should be plowed
or spaded to q depth of at least four
teen inches. Set the plants four feet
each way, and keep the young canes
pinched back to three feet, which will
make them branch out. In the fail
mulch with manure.
/ have tried both spring and fall
planting in different States, and ]
much prefer the latter. Farmers are
not pushed with work as they are in
the spring, and are thus able to devote
more time to preparing the soil and
getting the plants. Then, too, the
plants get nicely settled, and will nine
times out Of ten produce a good crop
the following season. Don't neglect
the berry patch; it will pay, and pay
well. r. T. Patterson, in New York
Tribune.
