III the first place, Tie tomatoes ar"
planted III rows three aa1 one half feet
apart and three feet apart in the rows,
which would be close for ordinary field
work, where the plants lie on the
ground. Tie plants are cared for In
the usual manner until they begin to
bend over with their own weight Then
six foot stakes rived out Of pine are
pushed firmly or driven Into the
ground after Il sOftcning rain and the
plants tied closely to them with a
piece of ordinary white wrapping
string ten inches long. Next every
plant is pruncd, and every sucker is
pulled out. leaving only single stems
with no limbs In n short time. with
rapid growth, another tying is necc$-
sary. care being taken to tie the fruit
bunch on the outside, 50 rs not to rub

plenty of light and air. and there is no
rotting and practically no sun scald-

With tomatoes bringing from -

OUR FARMERS.
ECONOMICAL HANDLING OF
MANURE.

About thirty years ago most of the
then modern barns had a manure cell
lar to hold all manure made during or
through the greater part of the win
ter. This was a good plan if well
carried out, as it held all of the liquids.
But some hold to the old theory of
throwing the manure out behind the
barn, and letting it lie until so me con-
venient time, if that ever comes, to
haul it out and place it in small heaps
in the field, to be re-handled after
blowing season commenced, either
blowing through these piles or poking
them around little, SO they will not
obstruct the pillow too much. Others
haul it out durine the winter and place
it in large piles ready to re-haul in
the spring, spreading it upon the sur
face just before blowing commences,
thinking that the manure is better
for re-handling and mixing. Manure
decomposes very slowly in winter, and
very little is gained in this way, with
the exception of what little one may
get away from leakage when placed
uponsteep Or sloping grounds.
Much manure on the average farm
is allowed to go to waste, especially
in liquid forms that could be saved by
tight trenches in the stables, They
need not necessarily be made deep.
Scatter all horse manure oats and
clover chaff, or any dry material to
take up this liquid, then haul daily
from stable direct to the field and
spread upon the soil intended for the
the ground that is to be MANFRED in
the fall, then there will be very little,
if any, waste by the liquid washing
away. AS the thawing of plowed
ground will open it and the tendencies
of liquid manure are downwards and
not upwards, rains and thaws are
benefit. Good stable manure is per-
feet fertilizer, supplying humus and
the mechanical texture of
most soils. Commercial fertilizers do
not justify any farmer in neglecting
or wasting the home supply, and he
cannot afford to do so. Every farmer
should study the wants of his soils, so
that he can supply the manure more
economically than his ancestors. Prof.
Roberts of Cornell says that ten loads
of manure are plenty for one acre of
land for any ordinary purpose, as the
growing crop cannot take up more
plant food than this amount of man
ure can supply. I fully agree with
top dressing. If the farmers
would take more interest in trying to
make more, and also take better care
of what manure they make, they
could produce better crops.-Rural
NeaU Yorker.

DOMESTIC LESSONS.

1t is we'll to keep lamps about two
thirds full of oil.
A very hot iron should never be
used for fannels Or woolens.
Calicoes, ginghams and chintzes
should be ironed on the wrong side.
The cost of maintaining lamp is
one eighth that of any other luminant.
Flannel should be ironed as little as
possible with a moderately hot iron.
A lamp chimney should be as large
in diameter as the brackets will per-
NIT.
Oranges are refreshing and feeding,
but are not good if the liver is out Of
order.
Thirst may be more quickly and
safely allayed by eating Clipped ice
than by any cold beverage.
Clothes lines are made much more
durable by boiling for ten minutes be-
fore they are used.
Cellars under kitchens and living
rooms are usually COO warm for the
perfect keeping of vegetables.
Bread pans should never be heated
before putting in the bread or the
loaf will have a raw, doughty taste
when baked.
Try wrapping a baked potato in
napkin as soon as it is done and press
ing slightly until it bursts open and
it will be sure to be mealy.
Oatmeal water favored with lemon
juice, cold cocoa, chocolate, cream, or
cold bouillon is not only meat as we'll
as drink, but is even more cooling
than ices.

To the innumerable objects of in
terest that await the tourist of the
golden state-the Yosemite Valley,
the big trees, the vast orange orchards
must be added the butcher bird.
There he sits on yonder telegraph
wire, shy, watchful and solitary, look
ing innocent enough in his coat of
blush gray. One might almost mis-
take the bird for a robin, expecting
him to burst forth into song, when
suddenly he leaves his perch and
dashes with amazing ferocity at some
insect, mouse, lizard, or small bird
that may have come in sight. This
"feudal baron and brigand bold" is
armed with rapier-like bill, sharp
claws, and has broad black band
suggestive of a mask, passing from
the forehead to the ear coverts. Its
disposition is savage and daring in
the extreme. Not content with kill
ing and devouring what is necessary
to satisfy hunger, the butcher bird,
so called from it's curious habit of
killing more than it imm ediately eats,
impales its victims on thorns or fixes
them in a forked branch the more
conveniently to tear them to pieces
and eat them in the future, as a
butcher hangs meat on the hooks.
It is very common for farmers to find
a long array of impaled victims of the
butcher bird in some sequestered nook,
where they remained forgotten. All
small birds have an antipathy to the
butcher bird, betray anger and utter
the moan of danger when it ap
proaches their nest. They will mob,
attack and drive it away as they do
the owl, as if fully acquainted with
its plunderiDg propensities, which
lead it to pursue and attack cage
birds with all the ferocity Of hawk
and to catch wounded robin larger
than itself.
