NEW FRUIT VARIETIES.

scribed by Prof. Beach of the
New York Experiment station.

At the meeting of the Eastern New
York horticultural society Prof. S. 4.
Beach. of the New York experiment.
al station. gave an address on New
Varieties of Fruits Not Yet Intro
duced." Among the new and desir-
able varieties of apples he spoke OF
the Arctic, which is now being plant
ed in the Champlain valley in small
way. 1t is one of the hardest of the
American apples. 1t somewhat re-
sembles the Baldwin in appearance.
The quality is good and the tree is
productive. Another apple now being
introduced is the Bismarck. 1t is an
early bearer. good size and fair quail
ty, but is not a dessert apple. The
Greenville is very handsome apple,
and seems to be worth trying. The
Ingham is new apple that is sue
cess in the west. 1t is being largely
planted for the export trade. The
Ontario is n seeding of the Northern
Spy and WAGNER It has proved to
be good apple for northern lati-
tudes. The Rome Beauty can be safe
ly recommended for gcrcp1hplantinG
where spraying is practiced.J bears
annually and has an established repu-
tation in market. It is not strong
grower. and should be top-worked on
other varieties. II IS Q good dessert
apple. The New York Imperial is in
demand as an export apple. 1t is an
early and abundant bearer and eX-
ccllent keeper. Among the Japan
plums the Burbank, abundance and
Red June have proved the best for the
market. The Wicksnn is the largest,
but the flavor is not high. It is not
an early bearer, but is more produc-
tive as it gets older. Campbell's Early
grape ripens between Moore's Early
and the Worlen. The flavor is bet
ter when left on vines for some time
after ripening; it is worthy Of trial.
The Nergennes grape is winning ia
vor; it is edible in October and keeps
until Christmas. 1t is not n strong
grower.--Nick's Magazine.

HOW TO HANDLE GRAVEL.
Ing Country Roads Better at
Small Expense.

Wherever gravel abounds, no other
material can compete with it in quail
ity and cheapness for building first
class roads. If, now, methods may be
devised for handling this somewhat
difficult and clumsy material, at less
expense, an impetus will be given to
the cause of good roads. want to show
an idea or two in use in this town, and
elsewhere, for loading and distributing
gravel rapidly and easily. Anything
that will save human muscle and econ
omize time is worth trying.
Let us back up our carts TO the-ba
chosen and begin to open it. This must
be, done right and with purpose in
view. A few boards or planks seven
feet long should be cleated together,
After shoyeling into the bank on a
level until an upright wall of gravel
one to two feet high is left, lay down
the platform of planks, and with bar
keep it with one edge close to the bank

HOW TO LOAD GRAVEL.

so all gravel will fall upon it. The
shovcing on this fiat surface is so
much more speedy and easy. that two
men will handle as much gravel in day
as three will when striking the edges Of
their shovels constantly against OBJ
structions.
Let this shoyeling continue, keep
ing the bottom level, and the planks
close to the bank right back eight or
nine feet. leaving the upright walls
on either side. Next set up four or
five posts on either side, five feet out
of the ground, bind them together with
4x6 crosspieces and lay down three
inch planks, as cover. Then have II
pair of horses and scraper draw the
gravel upon this raised platform.
Carts TO be loaded are backed under
it. and the drivers upset the floor, let
ting the gravel fall into the cart. This
arrangement is next in speed to n
steam shovel. and will load gravel four
times as fast as by hand.
Wagons are superior. even 10 carts.

the work. Their preparation is easy.
however. Planks one foot wide are
fixed on edge and attached to the
stakes. Other narrower ones are fitted
, closely for the bottom, and the ends
OF these planks are rounded for handles
so they may be turned up. letting the
gravel fall through upon the roadbed.
This is as easy as dumping cart. and.
besides. il saves spreading heap. for
il MAY be placed in this way Just where
il Is wanted. These simple. homemade
contrivances may mean increasing the
stretch of good roads at no added eN-
pense, in other towns as web US here,
if adopted.
An eXcelent tool to save s'rength
and time is the six or eight-tiDed fork.
when coarse gravel is being handled
and nowhere does ii work 80 easily
as upon the plank platform Another
good thing is a stone-boat built with
six-inch sides. il the gravel is being
hauled but a few rods. 1t must be
rugged to dump. by hanging n strong
ring al the exact middle of one side.
When the road is reached, unlock the
team anu NTINt tiouhb w INV F'N' h"'
ing no ring. Put the chain across the
boat and into the ring. Next stand MP
four-foot piece of plank under the
chain. back of the horses. When they
start over goes the load. The boat Is
loaded in one minute by the scraper.
after being drawn alongside of an
eight-inch plank that is kept on edge
by stout pins of wood or iron driven
into the gravel. The boat, pla ed just

over. catches the load TIL, wheel
shovel or wheel scraper is valuable
adjunct where tie gravel and roadbed
are near neighbors, also.
Sometimes where piece of road is
so far from a gravel deposit as to be
deemed impossible of improvement, be-
cause of the expense of teaming. II may
be profitably worked when employing
these simple time and labor savers. Re-
member that gravel is never tied up
by frost in winter, when men and teams
are idle. II is always accessible. and
may be sledded during the coolest
lays.-Farm Journal.

CONSERVING MOISTURE.
This Is One of the Most Important
Problems Presented to the
Market Gardener.

Natures method of conserving moist
decaying vegetable matter. Thus to
the soil is added humus, which is the
great storehouse for nitrogen and
moisture.
The conservation of soil moisture is
ne ofthe most important pro lems pre-
scented to the gardener. If the supply of
moisture is deficient all the labor OF
cultivation and expense in the form
of fertilizers count for little or moth
ing. The Importance of water to the
growing plant can only be appreciated
when we understand how large part
of its structure is composed of water.
The quantity of water in plants varies
from GO to as high as % per cent. of
their total weight. There is thus a
constant giving off of moisture by the
foliage during the entire period of
growth, and il must be made good by
that which is taken up by the roots.
The movement of the soil moisture
brings to the roots soluble plant food,
and nitrifcation-or the conversion Of
nitrogen compounds into the form OF
nitrates-can only precede in the pres
ence of moisture. Moisture may be
conserved as follows: BY (D blowing
or tilling; (2) mulches; (3) rotation OF
crops to increase humus; az under.
drainage; (5) lessening the influence
of winds; (6) applications of lime, salt
etc

ORCHARD AND GARDEN.

One of the best washes for fruit trees
is made by taking two gallons of water
and one of soft soap; boil well and then
add one gallon of crude carbolic acid,
mixing thoroughly.
AS general rule an Old orchard
should not be filed with young trees.
The soil is too often exhausted by the
growth of the former occupants. Bet
ter start new orchard.
Generally apples and peaches grown
commercially must be planted on a
sufficiently large scale to be shipped
in carload lots. Then buyers will be
on hand to take the crop as soon as
matured.
One of the best ways of protecting
trees from borers and other pests is
to apply the modern tree protectors
when the tree is planted out, See that
they fit close to the ground and not
too close around the stem.

quest at an early date and evident desire
to reimburse the county for the amount
tso unaccounted for, has acted in inanne
calculated to impress the board with hi
