endeavored TO take her home. Is was
finally decided that she must be re-

avoid trouble, consented to accompany
the party. Under this arrangement,
Miss Rhodes went willingly TO the
asylum, and after violent love scene,
Frego was able to make his escape and
return to his home On his arrival az

was released from the asylum Frego's

The Law 10 Not Good.

The law providing for s1O0 bounty
for the arrest and conviction of a horse
thief has become imperative through
what appears to have been an error In
printing the bill The law Of 1895 read
THAT the sum of 500 be paid to any
person or persons for the arrest and
conviction of each and every person
that steals a horse or horses from any
person or persons In this state" This
was amended in 1897 to read THAT
the sum of s180 be paid to any person
or persons for the arrest and eonvie-
ton OF any person or persons in this
state" which means nothing. Judge
Kelley, of St. Paul, in passing sem
tence upon the application of Thomas
E. West and August volk for a bounty
for the arrest of Joseph Smith, called
attention to this reading and denied
the application, there being no author
ity permitting him to grant it.

Coal Ashes for Fruit Trees.

Coal ashes certainly is a valuable
article for fruit trees, especially the
peach. I have tried it and find no
insects will stay where coal ashes
are applied, not even ants. Apply
by scraping away a little of the
earth around base of tree, and make
little mound of ashes around the
trunk. When the tree is affected
with borers make the mound higher
than when the ruinous worms are
at work. Throw some ashes up
against the trunk of the tree also,
and the borers and other insect
pests will leave. OF course / don't
claim that this will protect the fruit
on the tree; you should use the poi
son spray for that. | am satisfied,
however, that coal ashes will pro-
tect all plants from insects, so don't
throw them away any more, but
try them and you will be convinced,

Even a small head of lettuce may
be made to produce good supply
for the family, if, after it is pulled
and the leaves are trimmed off for
use, the root is carefully set out in
a rich place and shaded until it
has stablished itself. 1t is a sur
prise how readily the transplanted
lettuce will grow, When it starts
from the seed, which is very small,
the lettuce grows slowly, and it
seems as if it never will get large
enough to USE But in transplant
ing a great number of new roots
put forth, and these make tender
and succulent lettuce leaves, which
are much better than those growing
slowly. Often have we seen heads
of lettuce that have been transplant
ed once or twice that will on
a single plant produce enough for a
small family, and most of this
growth is made within two or three
weeks from the previous cutting
and transplanting. In fact, so sue
cessful is this method that we have
known housewives to take up let
tuce plants in the Fall and try to
grow them in tubs filled with rich
soil in the house. But the con-
ditions can not be kept in most farm
houses like those OF Summer out Of
doors. In greenhouse with bot
tom heat lettuce can be grown in
Winter as we'll as in Summer. 1t
needs less heat than most other hot
house plants, and can be grown
farthest from the FIRE, but must al
ways be we'll supplied with water.

FOR THE FARMER.
The blowing under of green

The blowing under of a green
growth of any kind adds humus to
the soil and helps materially to
make it more friable and easier
worked. This, at least, is one ad-
vantage. Then plant just attain
ed full growth and in full bloom, if
tnrned under, adds more or less
plant food to the soil as it decays.
OF the different kinds of plants
usually turned under as fertilizer,
clover stands at the head. One rea-
son for this is that the plant when
in full bloom, contains a consider
able amount of plant food, d valu-
able, or rather essential, element of
plant growth. 1t is, however, be-
coming question whether it is not
best to allow a growth made during
the Summer and Fall to die down
and mulch the soil during the Win
ter, rather than to pillow under the
latter part of Summer and Fall,
and then allow the ground to re-
main bare through the Winter.
Certain it is that the plants, where
in full bloom, contain a larger per
cent of fertilizing elements than at
any other stage. But some soils are
damaged if plowed and left bare all
through the Winter. This is espec-
tally the case with light sandy
loan.
One of the best plans of rotation
is to follow clover with wheat, pillow.
ing under the second crop as soon
as good growth is secured-the
nearest full bloom--and where
wheat is grown this plan can in
nearly all cases be followed with
good results.
Another good plan is TO follow
clover with corn, and when this il
done, and especially with a loamy
soil, many prefer to allow the clover
to mature and mulch the soil dur
ing the Winter, turning under rea
sonably early in the Spring.
1t is always best to use a chair
or drag on the pillow in either case

point where the vine has been grid
led. 1t stops there and goes to feed
ing the bunch of grapes growing at
that point. OF course ringing is a
thing that can only be done to a
limited extent, and the experiment
can only be tried on scattering
branches. 1t is evident that all
that part of the vine below the cut
will suffer the following year, and
that the entire vine itself would be
permanently injured and perhaps
destroyed if the practice were made
at all general. AS an interesting
experiment, however, to be made on
branches that one thinks of remOv-
ing anyhow, a trial of ringing will
furnish an interesting study to
those curious in such matters.

in order to turn the growth COM
pletely under. With green growth
it can be made to decay faster if
dressing of lime is scattered over it
just before blowing under. While
it is not desirable to permit a growth
of weeds simply to get to pillow it
under, yet where the growth is made
it is an item to make the most out
of tn. J. Shepherd, in Farmers

Girdling Grapes.

Among the many artificial ex-
pedients for making plants do as
one wishes, that of girdling or ring
ing the grape, which is now and
then practiced by horticulturists, is
not the least curious and interest
ing, says the Homestead. 1t consists
of the entire removal of the bark
just below the fruit cluster about a
month before the time of ripening.
It's effect is to hasten the ripening
by week or two and to increase
the size of the fruit. The sap as
cends through the pores of the wood
and sustains growth, but on desceed-
ing the elaborated sap, which passes
down between the wood and the
bark, can go no lower than the

Pear trees usually need but little
pruning.
All grain crops are injurious to
the orchard.
Strawberries produce the best
crop the first year of bearing.
In nearly all cases cultivation in
the orchard should be shallow.
Generally it is best to plan to set
out raspberry plants in the Fall.
Now is a good time to examine
the apple trees carefully for borers.
Strawberry plants that make a
bushy growth are best for hill plant
ing.
So far as possible avoid cutting
off large limbs unless they are dis
eased.
With currents the best fruit grows
on wood of the previous seasons
growth.
So far as is possible, extremes of
temperature for plants are to be
avoided.
Never prune the short spurs from
pear trees; all the fruit is borne
upon them.
Slow-growing grape vines like
the Delaware, should not be pruned
in Summer.
With roses the thriftiest wood of
recent growth is the best for max
ing cuttings.
At the first sign of root formations
all cutting should be promptly and
firmly potted.
One of the principal items with
the pear tree is to secure a slow,
sturdy growth.
Pear blight, apple scab and rust
are caused by blight. If left alone
they spread rapidly.
Any kind of loan, from sandy
to clayey or gravel, resting on por-
GUS subsoil will grow tree fruits.
With currants the removal of the
old canes in the thrifty growing
plonts is all the pruning needed.
