A correspondent desires to know the
best method of eXterminating plantain
from her lawn of about an acre. This
troublesome weed is liable to appear in
great numbers On new lawns and can
only be kept in check by frequent
moving and the stimulation of the
grass by the use Of fertiliZerS-prefera-
bly, those prepared for If
baIuyard manure is used, many weeds
seeds will be introduced among the
grass roots 1t should be used, there
fore. only in the liquid form. On small
lawns the p~lantain may be removed
with a sharp 'spud,' by which it is
easily cut off below the surface of the
ground. During the season in which
there are frequent showers, grass Will
not he injured by cutting every two
weeks. and this will suffice to kill out
most weeds in the course of a couple
of months.
The same lady inquiries about the
formation of Il bed of cannaS. All
thai the latter require is rich. deep soil
and liberal watering during dry wealth
or.
The garden or lawn soil should be
dug out to a depth of y or II inches
and replaced with rich compost. In
this plant the roots about w feet
apart. placing the tall, or standard,
varieties. which grow to a height of 6
to $ feet. in the center, and the dwarf
sorts toward the outer edge of the
bed. The CoZy cannas are extremely
varied and fine and seldom attain Il
height of more than three feet. 1t is
scarcely worth Willie to attempt to
"roW cannaS from seed. as the roots
can be obtained from all seedSmen ut

latest novelties and with good care
they multiply with exceeding rapidity,

There is actual value in the beauty
Of farm homes n well as in the beauty
of other property. There is value in
the beauty of a horse or other animal
and there is value in the beauty of a
flower. Shrub or tree. Handsome
fruits always sell for the most money
where the quality is equal and in
souie cases where the quality is infer
ior.
y beautiful farm home not only adds
to the value of its own farm but TO
the value of all the farms in the inn
mediate nri@hhorhood. Farm build
ingS kept in good repair and neatly
painted add much to the beauty and
actual value Of the farm. \ nice
lawn around the dwelling with a few
evergreen and ornamental trees and
shrubs add not only to the value of the
place. hut also to the comfort of the
family. Walks made to the front and
back doors of the house add to the
convenience and good looks of the
premises. The yard around the house
should not he used as Il pasture for
stock nor as Il runway for pigs and
calves. \ small orchard of large and
small fruits will add greatly to the
beauty and comfort of the home. The
expense in adding these things to the
home need not he great and they will
increase the actual value of the farm
much more than their cost, besides
happiness of the family.-Advocate

PLANTING Nut E
WIN. Saunders of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture Gives Some
Good Advice.

There Is no doubt that by a contin-
ual selection of hardy sorts, saving
n sowing the nuts from the most
n%ortherly trees, little by little the
hardness would increase, carrying the
northern limit further and further
along. This has occurred in the case
of the evergreen magnolia and the
sweet gun of the South, also of other
Southern trees. 1t has been found
that when a tree is doubtfully hardy
the Northern planter should get his
seedlings as near home as possible.
The peach from the far South if raised
from trees native to the locality for
years, will not do as well in the far
North as trees from nearer home. And
this holds good with the English wal
nut. This is proved in this way. There
are in Germantown, Philadelphia, trees
of the English walnut, perhaps fifty
feet high. which were planted by those
who first settled the town. These trees
besides that they are entirely hardy
produce nuts which give a race of
hardy seedlings, hardy from the start,
which is not the case with imported
seed. The nuts imported from abroad
produce seedlings which are liable to
have their terminal buds killed in win
ter. This will occur for two, three or
four years, making the trees have a
crooked main stem. After these first
years have passed. the trees are not in
jured. This proves that in time trees
adapt themselves to conditions sur
rounding them. as these old German
town trees were probably brought di-
rect from Germany or raised from
nuts brought from there. The farmer
of to-day thinks he cannot wait for
such a slow tree as the walnut. He
wants something like the apple and
the pear. which will give him fruit in
quicker time. Those old-gOing German
settlers could wait longer han their
children can, as even here. in Pennsyl-
vania. Their are but few of the trees
planted to-day. There is man. an
acre lot bringing nc revenue to-day
which could he planted with profit
with these trees. When they COM
mence to bear. which is when they are
about ten years old, they rarely miss
n crop. and keep on thriving and bear
ing for 100 years or more. The plant
ing distance for these trees should be
about fifty feet. utilizing the space be-
tween them viii plum or peach trees,
until the walnuts require the space.
But besides the orchard culture. there
is room for single trees about the
farm. which may as well he of some
thing profitable. as the English walnut
certainly would be.-Wm. Saunders,

TREATMENT
Good Tillage Increases the Available Food
supply of the Soil and Conserves
Moisture.

Good drainage, natural or artificial,
Is essential to success. Trees are i'm
patient of wet feet.
Good tillage increases the available
food supply of the soil and also con
serves its moisture.
Tillage should be begun just as soon
rs the ground is dry enough in the
spring, and should be repeated as Of
ten as once in ten days throughout the
growing season, which extends from
spring until July or August.
Only cultivated crops should be al
lowed in orchards early in the season.
Grain and hay should never be grown.
Even hoed or cultivated crops may
rob the trees of moisture and fertility
If they are allowed to stand above the
tree roots.
Watch a sod orchard. 1t will begin
to fail before you know it.
Probably nine-tenths of the apple
orchards are in sod. and many of them
are meadows. OF course they are fail
ing.
The remedy for these apple failures
is to cut down many of the orchards.
For the remainder. the treatment in
cultivation, fertilizing, sp%raying-the
trinity of orthodox apple growing.
Potash is the chief fertilizer to lie
applied to fruit trees. particularly after
they come into bearing.
Potash may be had in wood ashes
and muriate of potash. 1t is most com
monty used in the latter form. An IN
nual application of potash should be
made upon bearing orchards, 800
pounds to the acre.
Phosphoric acid is the second i'm
portant fertilizer to he applied a%rtifici-
ally to orchards. OF the plain super
phosphates from 3O0 to 800 pounds
may be applied to the acre.
Nitrogen can be obtained cheapest
by means of thorough tillage Ito pro-
mote nitritication) and heterogeneous
green manures.
Barn manures are generally more
economically used when applied to
farm crops than when applied to or
chards; vet they can he used with good
results. particularly when %rejuvenat-
ing the old orchards.
Cultivation may be stopped late in
the season. and a crop can then be
sown upon the land. The crop may
serve as a cover or protection to the
soil and as a green manurp.-Profes-
sor Bailey, Cornell University.

TESTS PATIENCE.
The Most Patient People Must
Show Annoyance at Times.

Nothing spoils a good constitution
quicker.
Nothing taxes a mans patience.
Like any itchiness of the skin.
Itching piles almost drive you crazy.
All day it makes you miserable.
All night it keeps you awake.
Itch. Itch. Itch. With no relief.
Just the same with Eczema.
Can hardly keep from scratching it.
You would do so, but you know II
makes it worse.
Such miseries are daily decreasing.
People are learning they can be
cured.
Learning the merit of Doan's Oint-
ment.
Plenty Of proof that Doan's Ointment
will cure piles, eczema, or any itchiness
OF the skin.
Mr.. H. X. Hamor. of ~ Hancock
street, a respected citizen Of Ellsworth,
Me, says: Il used everything econ
mended to me by friends and acquaint-
ances, and bought innumerable RENE
dies said to be sure cures for itching
piles, but for three year nothing | OBJ
tanned made the least impression upon
them. In the evening and at night the
never ceasing annoyance simply meant
torture, and many a night, unable to
sleep, | was almost driven crazy. With
very little faith in the preparation, but
suffering annoyance which amounted to
torture, | procured Doan's Ointment. A
part OF a 5o-cent box cured me. l could
not believe it. 1t is hard to understand
how a couple of weeks treatment OF any
ointment will bring about the results
obtained, and it is much harder to ex-
press my appreciation of that fact. l
feel SO grateful that | recommend Doan's
Ointment to everyone requiring such a
preparation"

Too much importance cannot be
given to the placing of the paint upon
a dry surface. If the pores are filled
with moisture, every paint will come
off. If your house is worth painting,
have it well painted. Obtain the best
painters and those who have a reputa-
ton for honesty. If you are going
to paint your house well, get the Chill
ton Paint, for it takes less of it to cover
a given amount of surface than any
other kind of paint, and it looks better
and wears longer.

TW ENTY-FIRST YEAR.
From Ogallah.

ED. WORLD: Two incidents we have
this week which we think worthy of
note.
First, the Sabbath School conven-
tion held last Sunday.
Second, the social gathering at G.
J. Anderson's Monday evening last.
The convention was quite largely
attended and mostly conducted by
local talent, all of whom did well with
the subjects assigned them. Rev.
Brown addressed the meeting in u
very entertaining way. The house
was over crowded as is always the case
whed we have something promising
for the public. We are hoping that
our people may ere long see the need
of more cOmmodious building at
this place than we now have. a
number of the Wa-Keeney people did
US the honor to attend. Come again,
we are always glad to see you.
The social gathering at G. J. Ander-
sons was in the nature of a surprise
to Mr.. Anderson and wife. May, the
Sth, being the goth year since their
marriage. 1t was also an old fashion
ed house warming. a double observ
ance affair. All came with filled
baskets, and at p. III. sat down to a
bounteous supper served by the lady
surprisers. Those present were: Mr..
and Mrs. George Mckinley. MIR. and
Mrs. John Harrison, Mr.. and Mrs.
Sanford Powers, Mr.. and Mrs. p. Il.
Linberg, Mr.. and Mrs. G. G. Yetter,
Mr.. and Mrs. Elias Burns, Mr. and
Mrs. Swan LOtstedU, and Il host of
children and youngsters that with
their hilarity and sports made ''od
Rome fairly how'll The new home
was tastefully arranged and nicely
decorated for the occasion, an evil
dence to us that some one had given
the tip of the approaching hosts. At
ter couple hours of social enjoyment
all repaired to the parlor where Il huge
set of handsome dishes seemed to be
waiting TO be presented. G. q. Yet
ter was chosen to present the tokens
of regard which he did in a creditable
manner and plain enough to be thor
oughIy understood. Mr. Anderson's
response was well worded and showed
a full appreciation of the kindly at
tention shown him by neIghborS and
friends This was genuinely enjoy
able and TO all Il most profitable occa-
sion which will be a pleasure to think
about for many days to come.
