POISON IN CELLARS.
ROttinG Vegetables and Fruits Pro-
duce Carbonic Gas, Deadly
Disease Breeder.

Says j. j. H. Gregory, the well-known
scotsman and vegetable grower: "a
cellar may be more valuable than the
building which stands on it when the
farmer has learned just how to control
it's temperature and dryness for the
best keeping of his vegetables"
Cellars have generally been found to
be unhealthy. Vegetables are frequent
~ left over to rot. While rotting, car
bonic acid gas is formed. This gas is
heavier than common air, and settles
to the bottom of the cellar. 1t is very
unhealthy, and people when entering
the cellar are liable to breathe it. If
sufficiently pure and breathed alone it
would soon cause death. In a section
much affected with malignant fever
it was found that in every case where
the fever prevailed there was a cellar,
while the houses where there were
no cellars were generally exempt.
Where cellars are thus used COW
cred drain of proper size leading out
ward from the bottom of the cellar
should be constructed. The construc-
ton should be such that the drain can
be opened and closed at pleasure. By
opening occasionally the foul air can
be drained off. 1t is, however, believed
that the better plan will be to abandon
the cellar altogether. A house of prop
Ell size can be constructed with a
double floor and double walls from
to IL feet apart. Fill between
the walls with sawdust or fine earth.
Double doors should be constructed,
one in either end, say, 5X2h feet. The
inner door may be constructed to slide.
Houses constructed as above gave en-
tire satisfaction and were free from
the deleterious effects of carbonic acid
gas.-Bryan Tyson, in Farm and Home.

but turns his attention to beef when
butter fat is low, says: profits

SIDE VIEW OF STALL.

changes, as any deviation will result
in running the whole plan. The plat
form is made of inch oak doubled
with broken joints and two-inch fall
at ditch. This platform may be made
of cement instead of plank or boards.
The ditch should be made watertight.
| have found that where consider
able quantity of absorbents are used
ditch 16 inches wide, 9 inches deep
at platform and Z inches at walk has
given us the greatest satisfaction.
We Ind that platform feet 6
inches from ditch to the piece across
the front of the stall is just right for
cow weighing 1000 pounds. For
shorter COWS decrease the length. the
idea being to fence the COW oacl1 to
the ditch so that all her weddings will
fallinto the latter which insures a clean
animal. For the managers [ use two
three by three studd.ng, and lay them
full length of stalls, SO that the feed
trough will be IS inches wide and four
inches above platform after placing a
tight bottom of either an 1S-inch
board or matched flooring. The fange
board next to cow is seven inches
wide, being just ten inches from top
to floor.
The opening of the manger at top
ought to be IS inches wide. At this
point all feed, grain, silage, hay or
fodder is fed. The last slat at bot
tom should be only six or seven inches
wide from the slanting back of man
ger, so that nothing but grain or cut
feed will pass into the 1S-inch trough.
The COWS are tied with the common
swivel tie chain. The partitions for
the stalls are three feet six inches long
and four feet high; width of stall, three
feet two inches from center to center.
The partitions do not follow through
past the fvefoot post to the slanting
back of the manger higher than one
foot above the fed trough. This is
done so that green corn or corn stover
can be fed more easily, which to many
farmers is an item. The feed bin is
an adjunct which many have attached
and run the full length of the feed
alley with door to door, as shown.
This feature saves many steps in a
whole winters feeding and holds a
large quantity of feed.-George T..
Scott, in Orange Judd Farmer.

THE WILD PERSIMMON.
1t Is a Fine Fruit Whose Improve
ment Is Being Urged by South
ern HOrticulturists.

If indica tons are of value, the per-
simmon is to receive more attention
in the future than it has in the past
The American wild persimmon has
long been we'll known and talked and
written about, but no systematic at
tempt has been made to develop it.
The introduction of japanese persim-
mons has perhaps stimulated interest
in this fruit and has led to an investi-
cation being started by the Tennessee
experiment station as 10 the possibili-
ties locked up in both the foreign and
native persimmons. The persimmon
has wide range of growth. 1t is
found as far north as southern Hi
nois, Indiana and Ohio, as we'll as in
Pennsylvania. 1t also grows at least
SO miles north of New York city.
Southwark it grows anywhere on
American soil and is raised from Flor
ida to Texas. That the tree is hardy
is we'll known. Within the last two
seasons the fruit has begun to appear
in the Chicago markets and is not in
frequently met with now in the exhi-
billions of our horticultural societies,
and it also appears at some of our
state fairs. The interest in it is on the
increase.-Farmers' Review.

The potato has been in cultivation in
civilized countries for less than 400
years, says recent writer. 1t was
brought over to Europe by the Spanish
when they We're colonizing America, in
1858. 1t was introduced into Ireland
in 1886 or 1886 by Sir Walter Raleigh,
when some of his colonists were return
ing to Ireland from California or Vir-
ginia, after which it was used by the
poorer class of the Irish as one of their
articles of diet. But it was not until
the latter part Of the eighteenth cen
fury that the potato came into gen
eral use; that is. about $50 years ago.
and the great acreage devoted to this
crop to-day has been developed since
that time. 1t appears that during the
latter part of the eighteenth century
famine in Scotland caused the potato
to be very largely grown there, and
this made it's use become more general.

out of line. Setting out stakes before
hand will not answer since each stake
must be taken up in order to dig hole.
An excellent plan is shown in the cut.
Set out small stakes in the exact spot
where each tree is to stand Make a
light tripod, as is shown in the cut,
with a cord and weight, arranged as
shown. Set the tripod over the stake
SO that the weight at the end of the
cord will be exactly over the stake.
Now pull up the stake and dig the hole
for the tree, without moving the tri-
pod Set the tree so that when the
weight is lowered it will touch the
trunk. In this way every tree will
stand finally in the exact position of
the row of stakes first set out.-Amer-

SETTING APPLE TREES.
Unless They Are Placed in GeOmetric
Order the Orchard Never Pre-

In setting out young orchard it is
highly important that the trees be set
exactly in geometric order, exactly in
line with each other in two directions.
An orchard presents much more at
tractive appearance if care is exercised
in this direction, and the looks of an
orchard prove to be an important fac
tor if time comes when it is desired to
sell the orchard
Now one cannot set trees in a per-
feet line by sighting along the line of
trees as they are set out. The tops OBJ
scure the view. and when the row is
