The June bug is on hand in force this
year, but he is much put out at the con-
dition Of things. There are no peaches
nor figs for him to Feast upon SO he will
have to starve or go further.
The complaint is very general that the
house flies are more abundant this year
than they have been in many years
Steady warfare should be kept on them
by every householder, else they may be-
come the pest they once were in Egypt
1t is easy to keep a house clear of them
by judicious use of pyrethrum powder
The tomato s infested to an unusual
extent with insects this year. Besides
serious injury from the bollworm and
some from the tomato sphinx, the stem
borer"e is doing considerable damage This
insect. If not the same, resembles the
borer that infests the ragweed. 1t bores
into the stem and destroys The vine so
promptly as to prevent any further form
alton of fruit upon il. These influences
a.ong with drought and blight will cause
a very short crop Of this desirable fruit.

Forage Crops-save Hay.

From all accounts the hay crop of 9e

First-ciass fodder corn, even. win probably
be worth from $12 to $50 per ton before
February. Let every farmer THAI has the
land put in several acres OF it at least
and let the cultivation be rapid and when
the corn is about to tassel cut and cure It
properly. Use good land, if possible 1t
will not make on wornout land. And then
II there are any vacant acres, sow them
down in peas and convert into hay, and
make hay of everything that stock will
eat. Few farmers know what a good hay
ragweed makes. Make hay of all the
crabgrass possible. II is not at all i'm
probable that first-class hay will be
worth $50 a ton before May.

Keep the Garden Agoing.

The last of June will find great many
gardens bare of vegetables. Many, of
course, will allow the weeds to take COM
pete possession. and when the rains do
come, they will come only for benefit of
the weeds.
It certainly would be the part of wisdom
not to allow this to be the case. There
are good many things that can be plant
ed in July and there is no reason for the
garden being perfect waste and furnish
ing nothing for the table.
Beans, okra, squashes, lady peas,
corn, tomatoes can all be plant
ed during the month. 1t is
quite true drought and insects may
do for these what they did for the first
crop, but il is possible also that these in
fiuences may not be near so bad with the
later as with the first paintings. Anyhow
IL is well worth the trouble of trying again.

For a long time there has been talk OF
an electric railway between Augusta and
Aiken and intermediate points. That talk

few days, and ID looks now very much

from Augusta, and is on the crest of the
plateau and when the South Carolina Raj
road was first built trains were pulled up
the steep incline by a stationary engine
on the top Of the hill. Between Aiken and
Augusta there are FIVE thriving manufac-
turing villages, Bath Langley, GRANTEE
vile, Vaucluse and Warrenville. at each
of which there Is a large cotton mill. and
1t cannot be doubted that the travel be-
tween these points and Augusta, should

How to rake Care of Grapes.

The following instructions as to The
care of grape vines are from Prof. Henry
of the Wisconsin experiment station, aud
are worth careful observance:
l. Keep the vine limited to the post;
Cont let It spread far enough to be in
the way of the cultivator.
2. Prure in the fall or very early in the
spring. For the farmer fall pruning is
the safest
g. Aim to grow at least four canes or
vines to each post. You cannot always
get 50 many by the third or fourth year.
but aim 10 get them
4. Cut out the Oldest cane close to the
ground each season, letting one new
strong cane succeed the old one.
). The three or four canes left must
bear The frutwood. Leave at pruning
time three or four spurs of new wood to
each of three canes, and cut these spurs
back to two or three buds. From these
buds como the new fruit wood which VIII
bear fruit.
G. Guard jealousy to keep the vine from
getting top-heavy Keep the fruit WOOD
low down on the plant. Grapes grown
near the ground are the sweetest ana
best favored. 1t will be seen that by cut
ting out one of the canes each season
there is no opportunity to grow "old
snags." which become a puzzle to the
grower, who does not know what 10 do
next with them. All the summer pruning
we do is to go with head shears through
the vineyard and clip the great leafy Gus
ter of vines on all sides into a rather
compact form.
Grapes grow anywhere with very little
care Trained to a garden fence, 20 the
side of the house, or anywhere else where
they can bask in the sun, good crop
may be expected every year. Even Won
a late frost kills the blossoms the VINE
will make a new start and put forth
new blossoms and bear a crop

SOFIA means oompared with cowpeas.

II. NJ c. writes, Does the sofa bean
make as good hay as the common cow pea
and is the meal of the one any richer than
the meal of the other? How many pounds
of beans can be raised on an acre of good
land. and, finally. will beans sown as
late as first week in July ripen before
killing frost?"
First-class sofa bean hay is a first
class forage, and is richer than the same
quality of hay made from the COW pea.
1t is richer in ash, in protein, in carbohy-
drates and in fat.
Comparing the meal of the two, sofa
bean meal has "a per cent. protein, while
COW pea meal has only 20 per cent.-a
vast difference. The sofa bean meal has
only 20 per cent carbohydrates, while pea
meal has Sc per cent. The sofa bean meal
has II per cent. fat, while pea meal has
only ia per cent. There Is AZ per cent.
of mineral matter in sofa bean meal while
there is only per cent. in pea meal. II
will be seen that the pea mea. has twice
as much starchy matter as the sofa bean
meal. but the latter has nearly double the
quantity of protein or nitrogenous mat
ter.
on good land twenty bushels Of sofa
beans are easily produced and il is posi-
BILE to make twice this quantity on very
rich land, They weight sixty pounds to
the bushel.
II the soil was in a good state of prepa-
ration with sufficient moisture in it to
cause prompt termination we believe SOW
ings the first week in July would mature
the larger proportion of beans befoNe
killing frost, which in your section is not
likely to occur before the second week in
November. But, as a rule, it would not
be safe to make sowings that late. 1t Is
best to sow early in June. When sown
in April or May they will mature In time
to allow grain to follow in October. The
vines are easily turned under after the
