BAKED BEANS EXPRESS TRAIN.
It Brings Tons of This Food to Exiled
B~ostonians.


Your true BOstonian who is forced
to exist in New York has little to COM
fort him in his exile. There is only
one solace to his cup of bitterness, and
that is his Sunday morning breakfast.
And as he sits down complacently to
this one meal of all the week which
reminds him of home he offers up a fer
vent prayer of thanksgiving for two
mercies. One is that he is still a Bos-
tonian, and the other is for the baked
beans train.
The baked beans train rolling
into the Grand Central Depot in New
York every Sunday morning at about
6 O'Clock. 1t comes In every other
morning, to be sure, but only on Sun
days does it possess any special sig
~nificance. There is always an express
car attached, but on week days it is
filled with a miscellaneous cargo. Not
So on Sunday mornings. Then there
is a penetrating aroma, which comes
from stacks and stacks of freshly
baked beans in pots. They are consign-
ed to an enterprising purveyor in New
York, who covers a regular route with
a number of delivery wagons. Within
two hours after the train ONE in the
contents of the express car have been
distributed. The Saturday night run
out of Boston is known among the
train hands as the baked beans un.

THE BOSTON MASSACRE.
An Important Event in the Nationt
History.

On the evening of March 5, 1910, oc
Cured a riot between the people, exas'
perated and irritated, says Godey'e
Magazine, beyond control, and a guard
of soldiers under Captain Preston,
which Is known as the Boston massa'
ere. A sentinel was first assaulted, 9
small file of soldiers came to his sup
port, a large crowd soon assembled and
the soldiers were pelted with stones
missiles of wood and pieces Of ice and
were dared to fire. The soldiers stood
their ground for some time with rea
sonable patience, but finally, pressed
too far, they fred upon the crowd, kill
ing three men instantly and mortaly
wounding two others. The effect OF
this encounter was electric; the people
assembled in thousands from all parts

excitement was intense and the people
could hardly be restrained from falling
F.. upon the regiments and w~reaking their
vengeance upon them.
Samuel Adams again came to the
front as a great popular leader, and
one of the most dramatic scenes In his
life was his personal demand upon
Governor Hutchinson, at the head of
a deputation of citizens, to remove the
regiments from Boston. These deter
mined citizens went in a body to the
governors house and demanded the re
moval of the troops. Governor Hutch.
inson, with his usual policy, offered to
remove one regiment. This was not
satisfactory, and Samuel Adams ad.
dressed the Governor as follows: I'll

charter, commandments of the mil
itary forces within it; and as such the
troops now in the capital are subject
to your orders. If you, or Colonel
Dalrymple under you, have the power
to remove n regiment, you have the
power to remove both, and nothing
short of their total removal will satisfy
the people or preserve the peace of the
province. A multitude, highly in.
censed, now wait the result of this ap-
plication. The voice of 10000 freemer
demands that both regiments be re-
moved. Their voice must be respect
ed, their demand obeyed. Fail not,
then, at your peril, to comply with this
requisition. On you alone rests the
responsibility of this decision, and If
the just expectations of the people are
disappointed, you must be answerable
to God and your country for the fatal
consequences that must ensue. The
committee have discharged their duty,
and 1t is for you to discharge yours.
They wait your final determination"
The result Of this impassioned and
peremptory appeal was a compliance
with the demand, and both regiments
were removed to Castle William in Bos-
ton Harbor.

of a Pet Fox Terrier.
A nicely groomed young woman was
walking down 10Th street, near G. a
few days ago, leading a fox terrier dog
by a chain. 1t was a pretty, shapely
log, with all the mannerisms of a lady's
pet, and rugged out in a pretty harness,
with a pretty bow of purple ribbon on
his back. The fox terrier paid a good
deal of attention to the exclusive job
Of minding his own business, and he
looked as If his environment was such
that he'd run a thousand miles to keep

Just as the boy and the lady passed

and the fox terrier was the one dog.
The black and tan was outclassed be-

bite, whereas there wasn't a square
inch on the black and tan's hide that
the pet" fox terrier didn't have a chew
at ia the two-minute mix-up.
The black and tan took it all out in
yelping and trying to break away,
while the beribboned dog didn't emit a
growl, but just stuck to his job of do
ing up his antagonist in detail. The
urchin looked full of worry when he
saw the small show his dog had, and
/ ried desperately to grab the black and

FOR THE FARMER.


In nearly all cases when the
Spring pigs are carried through the
Summer on grass alone they are in
poor condition to begin feeding corn
early. Grass and clover are valu-
able aids in maintaining a good
growth at low cost, but to secure
the best results some kind of good
Stops or grain should be fed in con-
nection with it. Not only will the
hogs fail to grow as they should,
but the pork will be of the poorest
and leanest kind Kept too long
on grass the digestive organs are
weak and not able to stand the
strain required when the hogs are
brought to a full grain diet.
Of animals on the farm it is more
necessary with hogs to secure a
quick growth and early maturity
than with any other. In no way
can this he done so easily or SO
economically, a. by giving the run
of good pasture during the Sum.
mer and in addition, a good feed of
mill-feed slops or some grain. One
decided advantage in keeping grow
ing pigs in thrifty condition, espec-
tally at this time, is that much
better opportunity is afforded in
every way of taking advantage of
the market.
If there is a sudden rise in the
market it often becomes necessary
to finish in a short time and it is
essential that the pigs be in thrifty
condition, if this is done. Then
hogs that have been well fed and
kept thrifty, can be brought to full
feeding in less time and with less
danger of checking than pigs that
have been stinted during the Sum-
mer.
To make the most out of good
pasturage with pigs some slop or
grain feeding is necessary and dur,
ing the Summer, at least, a better
gain in feeding can be secured if
the pigs can have the run of good
clover pasture.

Protect the Barn sparrows.

These birds were formerly very
numerous about farm buildings,
and great destroyers of insects. In
some parts of England they were
on by hop growers to de-
stroy hop flies. They subsist Who'll
ly upon insects, which they catch
on the wing, aud are fond of all
kinds of gnats, moths, beetles and
many other kinds. During recent
years the swallow has been driven

There is a gradual growth Of pref

pork, and the breed of hogs-the

the MERIT of which is that, while
they grow rapidly and increase in
weight like other breeds, they excel
in lean meat. Farmers who have
used boiled potatoes, crushed oats,
peas, are of the opinion that hogs
receiving the varied diet will make
more weight than when fed only on

If the strawberry bed, set last
Spring, has got the start of you,
cultivate between the rows until
the ground is as mellow as an ash
heap and every weed dead. File
your hoe and go at the weeds in the
rows between the plants. Limit
the runners to four or five to the
hill, or if you want big berries, cut
off and keep off every runner. Let
no weeds grow, and manure with
wood ashes, hen manure Tin moder-
alton pig manure, or sheep ma
nure, as close to the hill as you
dare. Remember that the straw
berry plants d. not root deep or
wide. The plant food you supply
must be close and near the top. If
you cut off all runners and depend
on the main plant to bear fruit, you
will get fine, big fruit, easily pick
ed, and there will be nothing to
prevent clean culture. In fact, the
LATEST way to grow strawberries is
to plant three feet apart each way,
cut off all runners, keep bed clean
by horse power, make it rich and
let it bear as long as plants are
thrifty, four or five years, probably.
Too many runners and too much
grass make small berries and weak
plants.

Continuous Farming.

There is no period on well regu-
lated farm during which idleness
should exist. Stock raising COM
bines many occupations. The dairy
man who has large herd must rise
early and work until darkness re-
turns. The many little details will
keep him busy, and there is always
something to be done; yet there are
hundreds of farmers who have but
few animals because they object to
the work that necessarily follows
the keeping of stock, but such far
mers lose just ST. much time in the
whole year and also deprive them
selves of that portion of the profits
which are made by utilizing the
homegrown products that are not
salabIe in any form unless consum-
ed by stock. They overlook the
fact that every pound of material
grown on the farm that can be used
for the production of some higher
priced product increases the profits
by cheapening the cost, as we'll as
the saving in labor in hauling and
shipping bulky products to market.
One operation on the farm leads to
another in regular rotation, and
just the same as Spring seeding
leads to harvest, so does the storing
of the products in the barn lead to
the employment OF the best methods
of disposing of those products at a
season of the year when the farmer
is not called to the fields to give his
entire attention to work away from
the barnyard. The care of the ma
nure heap after the Fall is gone is
alone worth the time and labor of
the farmer, while the machinery
and implements may be overhauled.
Farm work has no ending, and the
labor that can be bestowed after
harvest will return a satisfactory
proit.-Phitadelphio Record.

when to Sow Bluegrass seed.

This seed can be sown at almost
any season of the year when there
is enough moisture to cause it TO
terminate. The best time, how
ever, is in Autumn, say about the
middle of Septumber, or in early
Spring when the frost is coming
out of the ground. Possibly the
best way to SOW it is with timothy
or some other grass. If bluegrass
only is wanted, sow it alone in a
well-prepared seedbed. Keep the
weeds down until good sod has
been formed. 1t soon crowds out
the other grass, so that sowing with
timothy may be more satisfactory
in that a catch is often more easily
secured than if sown alone.

when to set Out straw berries.

When the conditions will admit
August is one of the best months
in which to set ont straw berry
plants. II a good, vigorous growth
can be secured at this time a fair
crop of fruit may be secured next
Spring. AS with all crops, the soil
should be prepared in good filth
and care taken in setting out the
plants in order that good growth
may be secured. On this account
it rarely pays to attempt to grow
the plants if the soil is very dry,
as there is not sufficient supply
OF moisture.
Then if the soil is dry, more work
is necessary to secure fine filth.
But with the soil in a good filth
and sufficient moisture in the soil
to induce good growth, setting in
August will give good results.
