Fighting the Plants Enemies.

No one should attempt to garden
these days without a good syringe and
a supply of various Insecticides. Not
only do we have to make continuous
and determined fight to secure good
fruits and vegetables, but the plant
enemies have also invaded our flower
gardens, and many of our most popu-
lar and once easily grown flowers are
now rarely seen in perfection. The
rose, especially, is favOrite victim Of
many insects and fungOus diseases
But with me the most dreaded of all is
the fungus known as the black spot
which not only ruins the crop of flow
ers by causing the foliage to drop, but
greatly lessons the vitality Of the
plants, making them much more liable
to wintcr-kill, and to start weak
puny growth the next spring, thus fall
ing ready victim to the disease again.
To successfully combat this plague re-
Quires prompt and thorough treatment.
Bordeaux mixture is the remedy, and
the plants should be thoroughly
sprayed with it before the leaves start
in the spring, and once or twice every
week thereafter during the entire
growing season, using care to destroy
all diseased leaves.
The cosmos bOrer is very destructive
to cosmos, dablias and asterS, fire.
Quently destroying all the plants, or
so damaging them as to cause them to
produce very inferior flowers. | was
at loss to know how to deal with this
pest for some time, but finally found
the following to be q complete rem
edy, If used in time: Take one level
teaspoonful paris green to three gal
lans Of water, and pour around the
base Of the stalk so as to soak the
ground for two or three inches deep,
beginning when the plants are only
about foot high and repeating the
application once every week until the
plant is about grown.
The black flower beetle is a most dis
gushing and troublesome pest, and
seems to be spreading over the coun-
try. 1t resembles the common blister
beetle Indeed, is species of blister
beetle), but 1t is smaller and jet black
in color. 1t feeds on the open flowers
Of the hollyhock, aster and few 9TH
ers, but those mentioned are their ia
vOrte food. One bug will in a little
while disfgure and utterly ruin tie
finest flower. When disturbed they
drop to the ground, and the best way
to get rid of them is to take shallow
pan Of water, into which little kero-
sene has been poured, and gather the
bugs into it by shaking the flowers
gently over the pan. The kerosene will
kill them instantly. One should look
the plants over twice each day, while
any bugs are to be found.-Vick's Mag
aZine.

The Culture Of Carrots.

Generally, when some sow carrots
they get them in early, often the last
days Of April or the first of May, and
the seed will be long time germinat-
ing, so that before one can see the
rows and be able to cultivate them the
weeds have got q good start and very
little can be done in the way of cult
walton except to get right down on
ones knees and do the whole of the
work with the hands.
l have grown them for years In this
manner: Take piece of good sod
ground, top-dress freely with well-rot-
ted manure, plough at any time it may
be convenient; if plOughed very early
and weeds start, put the harrow on
and kill the growth of weeds as many
times as they may put in an appear
Fance.' Have the soil thoroughly pull
verified by using the harrow. About
June I, when the soil Is warm and In
the best of condition, SOW your seed,
and in q very few days the plants will
be up SO that the rows can readily be
seen, and you can put cultivator
through to keep weeds out Of the way,
If there be any.
AS soon as the plants get well start
r. take a narrow-bladed hoe and cut
naI So the plants will stand at least
:our Inches apart. Later on, when
telose left have more than one in a
place, thin them out by hand. When
this Is done very little more is neces-
sary in the way Of cultivation that
cannot be done with q horse and cult
VatOr.
When the time comes to harvest
take sharp hoes and cut the tops from
the carrots gathering them to feel to
the cows, and with n horse and a
plough that can be run at a good depth
plough alongside Of row of carrots
and lay them out on the furrow. Pick
up all you can see, and when you
have gone over the plat in this way
put on your harrow and you will find
any that may have been covered as
you ploughed them out.
The great mistake in growing car
rots is that of sowing too early, wait
Ing so long for the plant to get in
sight to be cultivated. Another error
is gathering them with n spading fork
and cutting the tops by hand, one at
q time.-H. S. Matteson, in Country
Gentleman.

WIDOWS MITE.
Curious Custom Observed In an Old
London Churchyard.

Curious Custom Observed in an Old
London Churchyard.
There is still observed in an out-of-
the-way Londea churchyard one OF
those ancient customs, the observance
of which gave so much delight to
Charles Dickens, and whose descrip-
ton Of which has done so much to
endear to all who read the right little,
tight little island. Twenty-one ladies,
either past the age Of se!f-support or
unable by reason OF disease to make
living for themselves, have gathered
Tor centuries In this same churchyard,
on the same day, to receive the same
gifts from the benefcence Of the same
lady, now, Of course, long since dead.
Priory Church Of st. Bartholomew the
Great is well worth O visit from the
tourist In search Of that which Is an
Client. Hidden away behind the sreat
postofice building Of st. Martin's-le-
Grand, next door to the old hosplta!
that bears its patrons name, and
within few yards Of the quaint court
yard where the bluecoat boys, hatless
and In yellow stockings, play their
games. Founded in 1923, it still re-
tains its heavy Norman pillars and
rounded arches, which have been care
FULLY restored where the stone has
crunbled through centuries of decay.
Its narrow churchyard Is bordered on
TWO Sides by houses which have exag-
gerated their architectural tendency to
overhang. The gravestones ere so old
that most Of the inscriptions are worn
OF, and they are only to be reached by
climbing sort Of portable stage coach
LADDER from the pathway. Here gather
on the appointed morning the twenty
one Old ladies, for, as a rule, they are
old, and very old. The distribution Of
slxpences, hotcross buns, shawls and
two-shillins pieces takes place in ac-
cordance with legendary custom after
morning service. It is not quite GER
tain to a few centuries when the thing
was first started, but 1t has been 60
Ing on now for several hundred years.
The 'Lhlookers, as rule, are a few
fresh-complexioned nurses in pretty
Donnets and cloaks, and half dozen
residents Of Little Britain. After Rev.
Sir Borradaile Savory, the present rec
tor OF st. Bart" has conducted morn
Ing prayers, the twenty-one aged
danes mount the stage coach ladder
and make their way to the particular
grayestone on which the twenty-one
new sixpences lie, and each old lady,
having picked up her sixpence, Is then
presented with the form, the bun

Growing Ounces.

Ounces do not, as rule, DO well
everywhere; but there are very few
places where they will not fruit. They
occupy but little room and their fruit
is always in demand. 1t Is especially
fine when canned. The peculiar flavor
of the fruit is strong enough to flavor
many times it's own weight of other
fruit preserve when used for that pur-
pose. The ounce and the asparagus
plant enjoy the popularity Of being
able to asSimilate more salt than any
other two members Of the vegetable
family thus far brought under cult
Walton. If manure from the pigsty IS
used about ounce trees they seem to
do very we'll, but one of the best fer
tilizers is common salt, about one
quart for each tree, worked we'll into
the soil. They need fertilizing every
year. They should also be pruned.

Poultry Notes.

Rolled oats or coarse oat meal is q
muscle and bone builder.
Chicks should have animal protein.
Chicks must always have 4 good sup
ply of water and grit.
If your chicks have diarrhoea a feed
or two of middlings will oft-times stop
it. If constipated feed few feeds Of
bran.
Grease the heads Of chicks with lard,
dust the chickens under the wings
with insect powder, clean their feed
and water troughs with scalding water
twice a week.
Onions chopped fine make q desir-
able relish for chicks.
AS the chicks mature, separate the
males from the females.
Watch for lice in the hen house.
Kerosene will kill them Il. e. lice. Use
plenty of lime Stacked or in the FORM
Of whitewash in the hen house.
Feed plenty Of grass, green weeds or
anything green to mature, penned
fowls.
If your hens have formed the egg
eating habit, take a lot of egg shells,
crush them up fine and feed them all
they will eat. They can usually lie
found in quantities at bakeries.
Salt bacon cut into small pieces,
rolled in corn meal, fed every two
weeks, will usually stop cholera.
If q hen becomes broody, let her sit
on a nest prepared for her out of your
hen house for a week or so. She will
then be in better laying condition.
Market your eggs clean. They will
sell better. If you candle them before
marketing in hot weather it will save
you many curses which will be heaped
upon your head if the rotS are found
by the consumer. You can also obtain
better prices.

CrovIing the Chicks.

One Of the most serious mistakes
into which bcGinncrs-and for that
matter, the older breedcrs-fall into, is
allowing the flOCkS to become crowded.
Often the season is begun with only q
limited number of hens, which are cas-
lily accommodated, but the Matching Of
young chicks soon increases that num-
Der, until before the owner is aware
Of the fact he has perhaps almost q
hundred in the flock. The little fell
lows thrive nicely for q time and show
no Ill effects Of the CroWding for per-
haps six weeks or two months, but the
trouble is sure to come, and before dis
covered will often carry off the entire
lot. Chicks as they grow should be
allowed more room gradually, until
given propOrtiOnately as much room as
the original flock of old fowls had. Do
not start with the expectation of kill
Ing off the young fowls before they
show the effects Of overcrOwding, as
they will invariably cause trouble be-
fore large enough for the table.

SERIOUS HINTS ON DRESS.
With Some rlippant Comments by {
Boston Man.

With Some rl,ppant Comments by q
Boston Man.
We have received a little pamphlet
which we hope has been distributed
widely among our readers. The care
full study of 1t may put an end to
doubts that have embittered house
holds and poisoned the wells of domes-
tic happiness. This little book-we
dislike the term booklet in
simple language how to dress your
coachman, groom, butler, doorman and
page. Thus, for instance, the coach
man should wear six buttons on his
coat-two in the back at waist and two
at the bottom Of skirt. He shold also
have fats on his pockets. Otherwise
he might be mistaken for the groom,
who has no flaps on his pockets, and
has five buttons in front and six be-
hind. These buttons should always
match the metal trimmings on the har-
ness. Ardent Bryanites will, of course,
use silver. The hat must be silk. There
Is no alternative. SLOUGH hats are no
longer worn by the coachmen Of our
more exclusive citizens, and the more
fastidious insist that the hat should be
new one, not a cast-off dicer of the
muster. The coachman, when on du-
ty, should smoke only cigars. They
should cost at least at the rate Of three
for a quarter. Green baize cloth
aprons should match your billiard ia
bic. Crest buttons, worn by your SER
wants, should be ducal. There are
several dukes in England, so there may
be variety in the device. BY paying
attention to these details and the ad-
vice as to other matters given by this
pamphlet, you will be Obliged to be
more scrupulous as to your own dress;
for it is a sad sight when the groom is
mistaken for the master.-Boston Jour
nal.

A Spectator, who had made large
fortune out Of medicine for a disease
common among sheep, thought that a
fine market for his patent would be
found in Australia. He knew there
was an enormous number OF sheep In
that country, so he sent out his son
to open out this most promising con-
nection. The young man wrote to his
father as follows: This Is a splendid
place. The sheep are as plentiful as
reported. and / have no doubt we could
do a glorious business If we had the
chance. But before sending me cut
here you should have sent the sheep
disease. They haven't got 1t, and,
unless you can let me have a box OF
microbes, had better come homs." -

Permanent Pastures.

The more permanent pastures should
be grown in our low lands, and where
possible these should be drained by
open bitches before they are laid down
to permanent pasture. Where this can
be done they can then be ploughed. at
least in many instances they can.
Some kind of crop should then be sown
to subdue the sod. Flax is good, but
it is bad for the grass sown the next
year. Rape is also excellent. The next
best crop would be mixed grains pas
tUred off. When the land is thus sub
dued and smoothed with drag plank
lcvelcr, it is ready for the seed. This
should be sown in the spring. The fol-
lowing IS a good mixture to SOW: Three
pounds als,ke clover, three pounds
timothy. three pounds red top and
three to five pounds Of frst-class blue

EMERsoN'S WICKEDNEss,
Julia Ward Howe Warned Him Abou
the Devil.

JULIA Ward Howe Warned Him About
the Devil
In her benighted New York girl
hood Julia Ward Howe was taught to
regard Ralph Waldo Emerson as O
wicked man and she would have de-
clined his acquaintance II he had not
been introduced to her in q way which
made that impossible, says the Boston
Transcript. But having once been in
troduced, in the course Of trip be-
tween Boston and New York some ff-
ty-nine years ago, and then having had
her hard judgment Of this wicked man
softened little by seeing him carry
ing a poor child on his shoulders, she
consented to make him the object Of a
little missionary work. So she said to
him earnestly: "You seem to forget,
MIR. Emerson, that the devil is going
around all the time, seeking whom he
may deyour!" "Oh, no, Miss Ward"
he said, II don't think forget it, but
don't you think the angel ought to be
stronger than the demon?" This ques-
ton seems to have been in the nature
Of "sticker" to the young lady from
New York and she discontinued her
missionary work for that trip.

The wedding cake In this country
does not play such an important part
as 1t does abroad. In England at a
large wedding, the cake Is of colossal
proportions and it's adornment Is q
work of art. At the recent wedding
of the daughter OF the Earl Of Rose
berry, Lady Margaret Primrose, to tn,
Earl Of Crewe, the wedding cake was
six feet high and decorated with prim-
roses, wild heather and the Rossbery
and the Crewe coat Of arms. In New
York the sake Is arranged with an idea
OF convenience
