THE SAN JOSE SCALE.
Been Found Effective in De-
strOying the Fest.

Prof. John H. Smith reports to the
association for the advancement of
science that he has found spraying
with crude petroleum to be sure
method of destroying the San Jose
scale. lie first tried it on Duchess
pear tree, which was badly infested.
In the carly part of January, 1898, he
painted the tree thoroughly from the
tops of the twigs to the ground. Long
before spring opened it was easy to
see that there was not q living scale
remaining on the tree. As it started
well in the spring, about q dozen trees
were sprayed with a nozzle to cover
them as completely as possible. As
they had begun to make leaf growth,
he found in some cases foliage in
jured, and when an extra heavy dose
of oil was put on the fruit buds were
killed. The tree treated in winter
not only blossomed and bore we'll, but
it made rank and vigorous growth,
and the foliage bad color that en-
they could see it. 1t was as if an
application OF nitrate OF soda hcd
been made around it. This increase
in vigor and growth continues up TO
the present time.
The next winter many trees were
treated, including apple, peach, plum
and cherry, and by his advice many
others tested it, SO that probably 1000
to 1900 trees were treated that win
ter. In no case has any tree been
injured, and in all cases the scale was
destroyed and the tree appeared Wig
orous and healthy during the summer.
In one case where there were three
rows of apple trees 30 to 40 years old,
the middle row alone was sprayed,
and in June it was sight to behold.
The other rows looked sick!y by the
side of that, and on that the fruit SET
full and fair.-American Cultivator:

To Master q Kicking Cow.

There are few things around farm
that are more exasperating than a
balky horse or kicking cow. No
trouble will be had with the latter if
this plan is tried: Take two straps
with buckle on the end of each.
Buckle one of them about the animals
hind legs just above the big joint and
back of the udder. This should not be
loose enough to slip over the joint. and
not tight enough to prevent slipping
the other strap through it. Slip the
second strap through the first and
then buckle around the other leg the
same as the first, and draw up until the
legs are held close together. You can
then proceed in safety with the milk
ing. Your COW will neither kick nor
run away. L. Irwin, in Ohio Farmer.

Parts of Trees Bearing.

There are many apple trees that bear
from one-third to one-half a crop every
year, the portions being barren al
ternately, so that the tree is never en-
tirely barren. This is apt to be the case
where different varieties are grated on
the same tree, and especially if the
grating is done in alternate years. In
other cases cold storms or frost in the
early life of the tree destroyed the fruit
at poisoning time on the exposed side
of the tree, and as in the years that a
full crop is produced on the limbs in
bearing there is little chance. for fruit
buds to be formed on those parts of the
tree and the habit of bearing alternate
years formed by accident becomes full
ly established.

MAKING AN ORCHARD.
Best Plan for Beginners L. to seleIi
Varieties That Have Been Tried
with Success.

AS an orchard, especially the apple
and pear orchard, will, after it has
1nadeae good growth and become estab-
Gshed, last an ordinary lifetime, if
given proper care, the selection of va
rieties should be made very carefully.
TO set out and care for an orchard
until it comes into bearing requires
considerable labor and expense, and
to find out after working four or five
years to secure good growth that a
mistake in the selection of varieties
has been made will prove costly ex-
perience.
OF course there is always chance
OF being imposed upon by the nursery
man. The farmer may make good
selection and order them, and re-
ceive them properly labeled according
to his order only to find out that he
has been swindled when the trees
commence to bear-too late to avoid
the loss.
The only safe plan is to buy only
from responsible nurserymen, who
will not substitute after accepting the
order. There are plenty such so that
there is not much excuse for buying
of irresponsible dealers.
The best plan is to select for the
principal dependence varieties that
already have been tried and proved.
There is an abundance of these with
out risking too much on untried OF
unknown sorts. Because some trav.
cling agent who is interested in sell.
ing some high-sounding variety at a
big price recommends them is not a
sufficient reason for investing.
Difference in soil and cultivation Of
growth make a difference in the
growth and quality Of the fruit, and
the only safe guide is to take old and
tried varieties for the main crop and
then if desired a few trees Of fancy
sorts of unknown quality may be Sc
lected to try.
On the farm plan first to have a full
supply all through the year. Then
if more is wanted plant good winter
varieties that are strong in appear
ance, as in a market apple appear
ance is an important factor-N. J.

Virden. Manitoba. 18th Nov, 1899.
Hon.. Clifford Sifton, Minister Of the In
terror, Ottawa, Canada.
Sir-Thinking that my experience
in Manitoba might be both useful and
interesting to my fellow-countrymen
in the United States who may be look
ing to Manitoba and the Northwest
with the intention of settling there,
I have much pleasure in stating that
through information received from
Mr.. w. F. McCreary, immigration
Commissioner at Winnipeg, 1 was in
duced to visit Manitoba in February,
1898. When I called upon Mr.. McCreary
he spared no pains to give me all
the information, &C., in his possession,
the result of which was that l came
here with letter of introduction from
him TO the Secretary of the Virden
Board of Trade. That gentleman pro-
vided me with competent land guide
and altho' there was considerable
snow on the ground, had no diff
Guilty in selecting three homesteads
for myself and sons. Having made the
necessary homestead entries at the
Land Office in Brandon, returned to
my home in Lyon County, Minnesota,
and came back here in May following
accompanied by enc of my boys, bring
ing with US two teams of horses, i'm
plements, &c. Our first work was to
erect d temporary shanty and stable,
after which we broke and levelled IS
acres and put up 80 tons of hay.
went back to Minnesota about goth
July, leaving my son here. I returned
in October bringing my family with
me. I found that the land we had
acquired was of good quality being
strong clay loam with clay subsoil.
Last Spring I sowed 100 acres in
wheat, so acres in oats & barley as
acres of this grain was sowed on
"goback' plowed last SPRING. My
crop was threshed in October, the re-
suit being over 27oO bu. of grain in
all. Wheat averaged 10 bu. p. &C. and
graded No. hard but that which was
sown on land other than sod ("go-
back") went 24H bu. p. &C.
To say that am we'll pleased with
tine result of my first years farming

quately express my feelings, and l
have no hesitation in advising those
who are living in districts where land
is high in price to come out here, if
they are willing to do fair amount
OF work. l am 10 miles from Virden,
which is good market town, and
miles from Hargrave where there are
/ two elevators. This summer l erected
q dwelling house of native stone and
bought half-section of land adjoin-
ing our homesteads for which I paid
a very moderate price. There are still
some homesteads in this district, and
land of fine quality can be purchased
from the Canadian Pacific Ry. Co. at
$3.50 p. &C. on liberal terms. Good
water is generally found at depth Of
from Is to 20 #. I have IT'S &C. ready
for crop next year.
The cost of living here is about the
same as in Southern Minnesota. Some
commodities are higher and others
lower in price, but the average is
about the same.

supposed to be incurable For great many
years doctors pronounced it local disease,

pronounced it incurable. Science has proven
catarrh to be constitutional disease. and
therefore requires constitutional treatment.
