A SCIENCE.
All of Our Agricultural Colleges Are
Now Teaching How to Do the
Work Right.

The time has gone by when spray
ing of fruit trees is considered a task
that can be successfully performed
by any novice. When fruit growers
first realized that their trees must be
sprayed 1t was currently supposed
that any hired man could take a spray
pump of any make and cover the
trees with a spray solution destruc-
tive to the insects and fungi, but
harmless to the tree itself. This be-
lief was the cause of the many fail
ures that were early recorded against
the operators. Spraying is now
recognized as a science, and all Of
our agricultural colleges are teaching
how to do the work correctly. The
advice Is now given: DO not trust
an inexperienced man behind the noz-
zle of a sprayer." Most of the men
that spray are mere bunglers at the
business, having no complete concep-
ton of the great principles underly-
ing the operation. Spraying is rapid
ly becoming a profession, and we pre-
dict that it will not be long before
men skillful in spraying trees will be
in demand both in the city and coun-
try. 1t is becoming evident that the
owner of a small orchard can better
pay an expert owning his own appa-
ratus to do the work than to himself
invest in an outfit and trust his own
experience.-Farmers' Review.

SCRATCH!
SCRATCH!
SCRATCH

From morning till night. Hot! Itch
ing! Sore Ashamed to be seen! Face
covered with pimples. Hair falling
out! Who isn't sorry for the sufferer
from eczema?
And it's so unnecessary There's
a cure for eczema as sure as tomorrow
will follow to-day. YAGER'S SAR-
SAPARILLA WITH CELERY gets
right down to the source of the dis
ease-the blood. It draws out the im-
purities, which otherwise would come
through the skin. 1t puts functional
activity in such perfect orderthat each
part of the system does its work and
does it well.
A. A. Wilson, of Portsmouth, Va,
was afflicted with eczema and itching
sores. He writes: Permit me to
thank YOU for the great benefit l have
derived from the taking of YAGER'S
SARSAPARILLA WITH CELERY.
NV BODY was broken out all over
with pimples and sores; and my
flesh constantly itched. l heard of
YAGER'S SARSAPARILLA WITH
CELERY, and the wonderful cure it
had made for others, and concluded
to give it a trial. The results are most
satisfactory. MY face is becoming as
smooth as an infantS."
If you are troubled in any way with
any disease resulting from impure
blood, you can absolutely rely on
YAGER'S SARSAPARILLA to eff
feet a cure. Try it. You can get it at
any drug store, soc. a bottle. Made

WINTER VEGETABLES.
Suggestions fer Constructing Cold
Frames Which Will Answer All
Ordinary Purposes.

The frames should be in the warm.
est possible situation, facing south,
or In that general direction. I con.
struct my hotbeds On a different plan
from most others. I build a more
permanent frame. First 1 set cedar
posts the width of the bed, then nail
on boards with an elevation Of about
eight inches on the back. The soil is
dug out to a depth of IS to 80 inches
from the glass, to suit the crop to be
grown. The earth is banked around
the frame for protection.
I construct frames as near alright
as possible. It requires less protec-
ton during the severe freezing
weather. The sash are thoroughly
glazed and every crack is puttied.
The crack across the glass is run with
mastica. My sash are mostly Axe
foot, with four rows of ten-inch glass.
A bar 2x4 inches is placed between
each sash. 1t is put down a little be-
low the edge of the top board, but
even with the top of the lower edge
of frame. I use a strip one inch thick
the depth of the sash; 1t is nailed on
top of the 2x4-inch bar, ~overjets the
bottom of frame and is ever with the
top edge. I put on a cap board eight
inches wide along the top. It is
nailed to the back board of frame and
the bars between the sash. This
forms a perfect shelter for the sash
to slide under, the frame being built
about four inches wider than the
length of the sash. I find this a great
protection, as much heat escapes and
much cold enters the crack between
the back board and the sash if con-
structed in the ordinary way. 1 find
there is very little necessity for mats
OF straw for a bed so constructed.
Frames built after this plan will
cost about five dollars per sash. With
care they will last for years. I think
every farmer ought to have a frame,
If only a few sash. He can have let
tuce, green parsley, celery, etc, all
winter. It any surplus he can al
ways dispose of 1t at a good price. 1
DO not think a farmer is, half living
who does not have a few fresh vege-
tables on his table from his own
frame at all times. We do not use
as much manure in our beds as some
other growers. I use leaves, as they
retain h heat much longer than the
pure straw manure. Ny mixture is
n load OF manure and two loads of
new oak leaves.-R. Vincent, Jr., in
American Agriculturist.

Australian Fruit in Europe.

Consul General Guenther writes
from Frankfort that, according to
German papers, South Australian ap-
Piles are now sold in the Vienna mar
ket at from five to ten cents each;
choice ones even higher. The apples
are juicy and Of fine taste; they are
packed and shipped in small, long
boxes containing each 100 apples.
Each apple is wrapped in tissue pa
per, and they are packed in wood
wool (excelsior) and the leaves of
corn husks. They stand the sea
transportation well and also the
transport by rail from Hamburg to
Vienna, which takes from five to six
days. The apples are well-selected
ones, and show no spots or damage
from pressure.

U FOR MARKET.
There Are Hundreds of Varieties, But
Only q Few Are Adapted for
General Cultivation,

The number of known species of
plums runs up into the hundreds, but
among those hundreds there are only
. few that it will pay to do much
with. But it requires a great deal of
experimentation to find out the best
that is in each species. Each species
In turn is made to produce innumer-
able varieties, which may be in turn
crossed with the seedlings of other
species. If all the new varieties were
named we would soon have chaos in
the nomenclature. In addition the
number of varie1As would become so
great that the longest life would not
suffice to become acquainted with
them. It is, therefore, fortunate that
cutting out of varieties is continually
going on. Recently In walking
through a block of 500 Seeding plum
trees with Prof. Golf, of the Wiscon-
sin experiment station, he made the
remark that of those 500 trees, ell
fruiting and bearing fairly good
plums, not more than . dozen trees
would be saved. The rest were to go
INTO the brush heap. He says we have
too many varieties now, and that
most of the varieties men are at
tempting to grow should be discard
ed. This phase of the subject is of
interest to the PLAN student and is
an encouragement, for it justifes the
course of passing lightly over most
of the varieties or forgetting them
altogether and fixing the attention
on the few varieties that have been
proven to be good. For all practical
purposes therefore, it is possible for
a man to become a plum expert with
out devoting an entire life to the
study.-Farmers' Review.
