Only An Incident In Every Day Life

A laughable incident took place
in the western part of the city a
few weeks before moving day. The
door bell of a well known gentle
mans residence jingled merrily
and the lady of the house promptly
responded The caller was lady
who asked if she could look through
the house, the supposition being that
she wanted to rent the residence.
The lady replied that she would
show her through with pleasure.
She first took her visitor into the
cellar and pointed out the defects
in the heating apparatus, which the
landlord had promised repeatedly
to have repaired. She then took the
house hunter into every room in the
dwelling, even up tothe third story.
After vingthoroughly examined
the premises, the lady, on being
shown the door, turned and asked
the tenant what kind of a man the
landlord was. The tenant replied
that he was not man of his word,
as he had promised tohave the heat
err put in proper condition, but as
yet had failed to do so,
Then the visitor said, ~ am his
wife," (meaning the landlord 81.
Then the tenant gave her such a
lecturing as she will remember to
her dying day. The landlord had
thought, being a man Of small soul.
that the tenant would not show per-
sons through, who might call to rent
the dwelling.

Bucket shops In Wilmington.

Proprietors of ''bucket shops"
doing business in Philadelphia,
wore worried looks yesterday.
They had heard-or at least the
majority of them had-of the decis.
ion by New York Judge the day
before, under which one OF their
colleagues in the latter city was
mulcted in the sum Of $500, with the
alternative of spending year in
seclusion behind the bars as PEN
atty for non-payment of the fine.
The Philadelphia Inquirer says:
"Bucket shop keepers have been the
central figures in court rooms be-
fore. Sometimes they have been
convicted of conducting gambling
establishments. There are not so
many of them now as there were
five or six months ago. The lessen-
ing of the number is due, not to the
law, however, so much as to the
''margin" having gone against the
"bucket shops on several momen-
tous occasions, to an extent that
wiped out the bank rolls and put
the establishments out of business.
There are to-day fifty places in
Philadelphia.
Wilmington has two of these So
called "bucket shops doing BUSH
ness here on Market street, one
above Sixth and one above Eighth.
and do flourishing business with
small spectators and with others
who have good sized bank rolls.

Agricultural BrevitieA.

Curries' rustproof wax bean Is
claimed to he one of the earliest large
podded varieties and the most profitable
for the New England market.
OF tent caterpillars there are two
species, the apple tree tent caterpillar
and the forest tent caterpillar. The lat
ter often works with the former in APP
pie orchards but it Is chiefly confined
to woods, often defoliating sugar
bushes.
"Having found the fruit inferior.
we shall destroy our several trees of the
Japan plums, Satsuma and Willard.
All that may fairly be said in their ia.
vor is that they are nearly curculio
proof, says the writer of "Ruralisms"
in The Rural New Yorker.
Ordinary garden fertilizers are adapt
ed for the production of lettuce, but
two or three times as much of them
should be applied as is necessary for the
growth of beets, cabbages and most
other garden vegetables.
Tho Rhode Island station has found
that on very acid soil sulphate of am
monia has worked like a poison instead
Of an effective fertilizer.
According to New Hampshire cor
respondnt Of The New England Home
stead, many farmers say they will not
make maple sugar this year, help being
high and sugar low.

Best Time to Seed Redtop.

Redtop can be prottably seeded in
spring. more so than ut any other time.
according to Orange Judd Farmer. 1t
can be sown on fall wheat and slightly
narrowed in with a slant tooth harrow
ahe same as timothy OF clover. or the
seed bed can be prepared especially for
this crop In the event of dry season
the latter method would probably give
the best results. II sown alone, apply
about 30 to "a pounds of seed per acre.
This grass may be sown with timothy,
in which case 10 pounds per acre is
sufficient.
