Planting Black Raspberries.

Ny method of planting the black
raspberry is somewhat peculiar.
Owing to my ability to get stakes very
cheaply, prefer to stake. The az
rangements for planting all kinds of
berry plants are made at least one
year in advance, the ground being de-
voted to some hoed crop which is kept
thoroughly free of weeds. The ground
is plowed in the fall, then disked in
spring. The field is marked out both
ways, the rows being four and one
half feet apart. They are opened up
one way by means of n single shoveled
plow and the plants nre set in this
furrow where the cross mark inter
sects.
In sett ng, care must be taken not
to get tn crowns too deep. One inch
or less below the surface is su uficient.
The roots, however, should be set as
deep as possible and the ground packed
firmly about them. l usually plant
nurse crop with the raspberries, pre-
ferring potatoes, cabbages or tomatoes
to corn, as the latter crop shades the
plants and is detrimental to the rasp-
berries in consuming large quantities
of water. Cultivate the young rasp.
berries both ways, keeping the grouno
thoroughly clean until about Aug. /,
then SOW the field to turnips, using
garden drill for the purpose and put
ting in two or three rows of turnips
between each two rows of raspberries.
1t sometimes happens that the rasp-
berries make such rapid growth dur
ing the first season that it is difficult
to SOW the turnips. If full stand of
plants is not secured it is best to set
the entire field anew the next spring.
have seldom had any success in re-
planting missed places. If fone-fourth
of the plants fail to grow, replan. the
entire field
During the first summer the canes
are allowed to grow as they please.
The following spring they are trimmed
back to about IL or 20 inches and
staked and tied up. The second sum-
mer and each season thereafter the
vines are pinched off at about three
feet i'll height, and in the spring the
side branches are cut to within one
foot of the main stem. All the old
wood is then cut out and raked off
with horse rake and burned. By my
method of tying am enabled to work
close up to the hills and thus save a
great deal of hoeing. By cross work
ing 1 get rid of tire ridges which are
the result of working one way. 1 now
have berry fields six and seven years
old and they are nearly level. The
past season they made splendid
growth. w. S. Fultz in American

Banished Tor Life by Spain.

Colonel San Martin OF the Spanish
army doubtless wishes that he had
never seen an American soldier, for
his first and final troubles began
when he laid eyes on the manly figure
of General Miles. When that Yankee
commander arrived at Ponce, in Porto
Rico, San Martin commanded force
of 1000 men in the town, but was so
surprised that he made no attempt at
resistance and fell back through the
island to San Juan. When he
reached the Porto Rican capital he
was court-martialed by order of Cap
tain General Macias and condemned
to be shot. The unfortunate colonel
