3 For THE FARMER. 1

We have found out, or, rather, it has
been found out for us, that of all the
70 elements which make up the soil
only about IA enter into the compost
ton of plants, and of these IA 1t Is
only necessary for the farmer to con-
Germ himself with three and sometimes
four. So says Bryan Tyson In The
New England Farmer. These are phos-
phoric acid, nitrogen, potash and occa-
sionally lime. Therefore when we
speak Of an exhausted soil we simply
mean soil which has been deprived
or denuded of it's contents of phos-
phoric acid, nitrogen and potash. Hence
when we speak about restoring the fer
tility of our soil we mean simply the
renewal of the four ingredients men
toned. Here in this process nature
comes to our rescue through her wise
provision of a certain species of plants
known as "legumes," among which are
clovers, beans, peas and vetches, hav
ing given these the property of getting
nitrogen (Which, by the way, costs
about three times as much as phos-
phoric acid and potash from the air.
Therefore in fertilizing these crops the
farmer has only to buy two fertilizer
ingredients instead of three. Then the
judicious application of some good
phosphate and potash fertilizer, like
phosphoric acid and muriate of potash,
will greatly nourish the peas or clover,
as the case may be, which in turn will
absorb vast quantity of nitrogen from
the air. At maturity the whole mass
can be turned under, thus enriching
the soil in the three essential plant
food ingredients and at the same time
supplying the much needed humus.

Handy For Housewives.

Among the most recent and helpful
of labor saving devices may be reckon
ed the pictorial label which is destin-
ed to take the place of the hand writ
ten labels which used to distinguish
the different preserves and jellies stor-
ed in the fruit closet from each other
and which took SO long to prepare.
The pictorial label is simplicity IT.
self The colored representation Of the
fruit indicated explains it's object and
purpose. There is nothing to confuse
the eye of the housekeeper as she runs
it over the shelves of her preserve
closet In search of d particular fruit.
Some of the designs show evidence of
a high degree of artistic merit as well.
The labels can be used but once, but
they can be purchased very cheaply
and come all gummed and ready to at
tach.-Boston Journal.

ARTISTIC Curtain Hanging.

In hanging the colored silk or cotton
curtains a better result is got with
small plaits than with the old fashion
ed box plaits. A cluster of five small
side plaits is sewed together where the
plat is formed, so that they stand out
the depth of the plaits. Along the sides
the fringe is then sewed close to the
edge or across the bottom. The edge of
the fringe should fall just above the
edge of the curtain. The loops to hold
back the curtains are usually of the
cable cord, about half an inch in di-
ameter. When 1t is preferred not to
use rings with white sash curtains,
they may be made with three-fourths
of an inch heading, below which is
shirring to slip the brass through. To
hang the curtains across in French
style they must first be Tapped to cross
as far as is desired and then a cotton
tape is sewed on, through which the
rod is passed. This method of draping
calls for curtain fully two yards long,
in order to allow for the droop where

A writer In the Michigan Farmer
urges an objection to the plan of Sc
lecting the heaviest and plumpest
grain Of seed that is new to u.s. and yet
1t is a reasonable one, says the Boston
Cultivator. He says that often the
very plumpest grains of wheat are
found upon the very smallest heads
and shortest straw, and he thinks tile
selection of such seed would have
tendency to run out the wheat into
short straw and short heads. In fact,
he thinks it has done SO many times in
the hands of those who have been most
careful to obtain large seed for SOW
ing. In regard to selecting the heads
and saving them for seed, he says 1t
takes a great many heads to obtain
even one quart of grain, and to save
enough to SOW large area would be
long task. He suggests that better
field where the grain stands best, with
the most uniform heads and strongest
straw, and reserve that expressly for
seed. This would be some extra trou-
BILE, but he thinks it would pay While
we have advocated saving the large
grain, we are not so fixed in our opin-
ion as to have any prejudice against
his plan. And we would suggest
modification of that or OF the two
plans. If he can select good heads
enough to save quart of seed grain,
he might SOW that upon some of his
best soil, give it an extra amount of
fertilizer and extra care and try to
save seed enough from that to SOW
much larger field or perhaps all the
wheatf1elds.

Never Out of Fashion.

A correspondent of The Review of
Reviews, in discussing the future of
the horse in competition with mechan-
ical power, says: 1T is well, however,
to consider what is the wisest thing to
be done. The most foolish thing 10 do
is for a farmer to stop breeding. He
should probably breed fewer colts, but
he should breed better. That is the
whole secret in nutshell Hereafter
In it's horses the world will require
quality rather than quantity, and get
ting quality the world will be willing to
pay the price, just as it is paying today.
Today any horse for which there is a
demand-and there is a demand for ev
cry horse of superior excellence-the
price is as high as 1t has been at any
time In 20 years. The fine horse for
driving and riding is never going out
of fashion, and just at this moment in
the great marts in New York this horse
is in very active demand for home and
for foreign use"

ARISToCRATS.

According to writer In the Chicago
Times Herald, it is no longer consider

of the nobility shows that some of
them are not above making the con-

rives the greater portion of his income
from his ribbon manufactures in and
around Coventry. Lord Masham is

sends weekly articles to the London
Graphic. The Marquis of Lorne, SON
in-law of the queen, adds to his income
by his work as designer and partner

many other peers, not only mine COAL

streets of London in carts bearing
their names and coronets. 1t is in We

Rosebery, Lord Rayleigh and the Mar

metropolitan customers. On several
occasions have these noble lords been
found suing petty dealers in the Lon
don courts for having encroached upon
their milk routes. Lord Portsmouth

Dewey's Temperance Loving Cup.
The admiral has very beautiful low
ing cup, presented by the people of
western city. AS a work of art it is as
fine as anything possibly could be. 1t
has the customary three handles and
capacity to satisfy the combined thirsts
of half a dozen men. Upon one side
of the cup, carved in relief, is the fig
ure of a woman probably Fame, which
extends to and above the edge of the
cup and to such an extent as to inter-
fere seriously with the practical use of
the vessel. The admiral showed us the
cup and then said, Suppose we take
drink out of it." The first unsuspect-
ing man tried it and found that the
projecting figure and one Of Pame's
outstretched arms tried to penetrate
his forehead and cheek. After several
unsuccessful attempts the cup was
passed on to another would be drinker,
with the same result. Then came the
