Care of the Sick.

When a patient has been confined to
the bed for some time it will often be
found a great relief to backache to
tuck smooth pad Of cotton under the
small Of the back. A pillow under the
knees at times will also rest one u
great deal.
"To turn patient easily on a
drawn sheet a yard wide says train
ed nurse, 'loosen the drawn sheet at
each side of the bed, then draw the
sheet gently in whichever direction
preferred. It is better to have two
people to do this"

Pear and Apple Blight.

This species Og blight is due to very
minute germ which finds access to the
tender cells and juices inside the pro-
jecting bark of the tree. There 1t
multiplies into untold billions, turning
the healthy sap into poisonous fluid,
and causing serious injury or death to
a part Of the tree and i'll extreme cases
to the entire tree. What will stop it!
When the blight is rampant in the
orchard very little, if anything, can
be done to stop it. The dead and dy-
ing leaves and branches are but the
natural result of the disease that has
long been ravaging the vital parts
within. It is the sickly portion of a
blighted leaf or branch that contains
the elements of danger.
Fighting fire blight can only be done
effectively by preventive measures.
Nothing will cure it, so far as is
known, short of fire. Nor will spray
ing even check it. The disease is too
deeply seated to be reached by outside
treatment 1t will go from apple to
pear or ounce trees, or from them to
the apple. The wild red haw and
some other pomaceous trees are slight
~ affected by it. The germs will not
multiply when the temperature is cool.
They. lie dormant during the winter
time. and under the warming intlu-
ences of spring they begin to grow.
A LIQUID ooZes out of the diseased
branches, which contains millions of
these deadly germs. This is carried
on the feets of insects and in other
ways to neighbOring trees, where the
germs find Judgment They are often
introduced through the delicate floral
organs, where they find easy access
to the circulating sap. From there the
disease soon spreads into the tWigs
and then into the larger branches.
They also enter through the tender
growth of the new wood. 1t is there
that the disease most commonly ap-
pears, especially on apple and ounce
trees, during the warm sultry weather
in June and July, when the shoots are
very tender Where thunder showers
are very frequent in midsummer, the
conditions are just right for the intro
duction and propagation of the dis
ease. which has caused some to think
that electricity did the damage.
AS has already been said, preventive
measures are the only kind to use. The
sources of infection must be destroyed.
If the sick1y. half-matured twigs are
cut off below where any disease exists
there can be little opportunity for its
spread. The great difficulty is, to
know when we are below the disease
No one can tell absolutely how far
down it may extend, except the most
skillful scientist, and with a COM
pound microscope. 1t is usually safe,
however, to cut foot or little more
below where there is the least out
ward sign of any affection. If the cut
is not made below the diseased part
there is great danger, if not certainty,
of carrying the germs on the knife, or
saw to healthy wood i'll cutting off
other branches The trees should be
carefully gone over in late fall OF
early winter. but any time before the
trees bloom will do.-H. E. Van De-
man in New England Homestead.

AlSike Clover.

1t seemed few years ago as IL req
clover growing must be abandoned
because of insect midges that de-
stroyed the seed in the BLOSSOM, and
the worm that ate both blossom and
leaf. Both these have in most clover
growing districts found parasitic enc
mics that keep the destroyer in check.
If there is any place where red clover
is still hard to grow alsike or SWed-
ish clover is a good substitute. 1t is
a true clover. and intermediate in size
between white and red clover, and
making in it's first crop a fine, sweet
hay. Unfortunately, when this crop
is cut the plant dies out, as it is a
true biennial, dying after bearing it's
seed the second year Alsil1e clover is
often sown with timothy, which it will
so OvershadOw that scarcely spear OF
timothy can be seen among the alslkH.
The alsike needs to be cut so early
that what timothy there is has not got
to the heading-out stage. Hence it
sprouts readily, and makes an aston
ishing growth, feeding on the alslke
roots that have persisted a few weeks
before A good crop Of timothy hay
can be cut in August on land that has
borne alsike hay two months before,
and that then only showed very little
struggling timothy among the clover.

CRASHED Pigs.

A few years ago many writer's on
agriculture were enthusiastic over
what they supposed were the advan-
tages of keeping hogs and pigs on
grass and clover, as being so much
less expensive than grain, besides max
ing better quality of pork. We do
not hear much about this cheapness
of grass for pigs now. Considering
their nutrition. grass ana clover are
far dearer foods than grain, especially
for the pig, which has a smaller stom-
ach in proportion to it's size than any
other domestic animal. In this fact
of it's small stomach lies the principal
value of the hog as cheap producer
of meat. for it has more meat with less
waste matter than in any rumlnant an
imal If we could oblige the hog to
eat enough grass to maintain good con-
dition. that would enlarge the stomach
beyond all proportions for hog, and
vet the animal would be but half
nourished What feeding hogs on
grass results in is seen in the half
wild hogs of the South, which are
eaunt and so fleet that no negro thief
in search of juicy pig can catch them.
They only fatten when nuts ripen in
the fall Nuts are about the most con-
centrated nutriment that can be found.
The pig needs mainly concentrated
food. What else he requires is best
fed to him in small quantities, clover
in it's season But the best food to aid
digestion in pigs is beets, which even
hogs that are highly fed on corn or
other grains will eat greedily. Mangel
wurtZel or some coarse-g growing beets
are usually recommended, but we
should advise growing sugar beets for
this use, and then not give the pigs
all they eat of beets, lest they lessen
their grain ration too much. Hogs
are so fond of beets that if allowed
all they will eat they will surfeit them
selves with a food that is not as nutri-
tious as it should be for the owners
