ORCHARD AND GARDEN

The pretty green worm with black,
velvety spots on his back is now enjoy
ing his feed of celery leaves. Give
him a pinch in passing.
If our choice varieties are not to run
out the seed must be saved from plants
in their prime, unfertilized by any in
ferior plant standing near.
Kerosene emulsion is the great lice
killer. Have the sprayer ready and use
it on the cabbage louise, the pea louise,
the melon louise and give the green cab
bage worm a dose of the same.
Are the young trees dying? Per-
haps they are too dry. Don't water
them on the surface. Put down a
crow-bar in two or three places and
soak in two pailfuls of water deeply.
Then it will not dry out quickly.
1t is not a good policy to allow the
dead limbs of trees to decay, or to
leave blighted parts of trees to re-
main in the orchard. All dead and
blighted wood should be kept cut out
and destroyed as soon as possible.
There should be no harbors for insects
and disease about.-Farm Journal.

grown by our own people, and a
great part of it upon lands which
have not been good food producers.
We are also importing finer bread
wheats and distributing them
throughout the wheat growing re-
gion.
1.-THE Smyrna fig industry is well es-
tablished in California. Fifteen tons
of figs will be raised this year. Date
palms from Tripoli are being success
fully grown at Phoenix, Ariz. These
two industries are of great value and
will increase from year to year.
"Dr. Knapp, of this department., will
soon be on the way to the China sea
to study the forage crops of
those countries, in order that sim
liar crops may be produced on
our southern farms; also to as
certain what plant in the Philip
pine islands will save the expense of
sending hay from this country for 49,
600 horses and mules; also TO find soft
rice for our stock feeding. His work
will be of vast Importance and value to
our people.
"In like manner we are studying for
estry in all ATTITUDES. We are intro
ducing new grasses and legumes for
every American latitude. Our object
is to enable the United States to pro-
duce everything that is necessary for
our necessities, not merely for the
continued prosperity of our whole
people, but in order that the whole
world may see that we are ready to
meet any combinations, trade or
otherwise, which may be formed
against US, as suggested in many quar-
tiers, and threatened in a few local
tiles"
Secretary Wilson then reverted to
the work of his department in the
scientific branches which include the
weather bureau, the division of sta
t~istics, section of foreign markets, bu-
reau of animal industry, division Of
chemistry, office of experiment sta
tions, biological survey, divisions of
entomology, forestry, botany, agros-
tology, p~omology, soils, seeds, gardens
and grounds, and public roads. There
is a veritable department of lifetime
| study in each of these divisions. The
men of science working under the di-
rection of the secretary make ~investi-
d 1Llbo OhS VI L ' SbOSnS
and make Investigations and expert
ments for the prevention or extirpa-
ton of those diseases.
They make special studies of the
pest means of extending our agricu1-
tural export trade, by cooperating
with consuls of this country in for
eign ports. They study soils, fertiliz-
ers, authorizations of foods, their pre-
vention and detection. They collect
and disseminate information by pub
fishing accounts Of agricultural in
vestigations at home and abroad.
They are doing invaluable work in
studying soils in their relation to
crops, the mapping of soils, the in
vestigation and mapping of alkali
lands; also the Investigations and pub
locations concerning the growth, cur
ing and fermentation of tobacco. The
seed division alone, which is particu-
larly of interest to individual farm
ers, performs an amount of work the
publication of which, in detail, would
fill a volume.
The secretary says: "All of the
wealth of the world is in the soil. We
have it. 1t is our duty to develop it.
We are fully aware of the situation
and are confronting it."

first took up this work the United
States produced 25 per ent of the
amour used. This years rice crop
will supply all demands.
you know that the department of
agriculture has been encouraging the
sugar beet industry. We have been
importing 20 tons of seed from
France and Germany. In 1898 We
produced $4,000 tons of sugar from
beets; in 1899, 5000 tons; in 1890,
$4,000 tons. This year we will pro-
duce upwards of 100, 900 tons of sugar
from beets. There will also be about
40 factories at work this year mag
ing beet sugar. 1t is a great indus
try.
Heretofore the United States has
never succeeded in manufacturing
first-class macaroni. We began inn
porting macaroni wheats from the
Russian empire, and this year there
will be grown in our country about
100, 900 bushels of this wheat in the
semi-arid regions. Very soon it will
be unnecessary for US to import
100000 pounds of macaroni annual

1. Dorothy, the only daughter of . prom
nent western minister, possesses . will
that, If it increases with her years, viii be
Q most formidable thing to encounter by
and by. As it is her father and mother
are constantly being shocked by her un-
cody ways and general incorrigibility.
Not long ago she was playing with her kit
ten, which objected IN frantic jumps to be
ing dressed in a dolls golf cape; and in
her sudden desperation and evaporation
her mother was Mortified to hear her tx
claim:
You d. little cat!"
Of course a vigorous chastisement fol-
lowed and the usual penitent tears were
shed and promises made, but alas, for baby
resolutionsi The next day the kitten
again proved intractable, and childish i'm
patience was about to express itself when
she caught sight of her mothers warning
eye and uplifted finger. Then with an air
of resignation she said:
Chats all right, mamma, but she's the
same kind of a cat that she was yesterday"

Neatness Has Money Value.

Two s0-acre farms located not far
from where I live were offered for
sale last spring. The soil of both
is. good. Both have very fair houses
on them, medium-sized barns, with
hedge and other. fences in good re-
pair. On one the house is about 80
feet from the highway, and on the
other it is so. The first has two cot
tonwood shade trees, no lawn, no
shrubbery, no fruit trees. The other
has five white ash shade trees, a neat
little lawn ornamented with a few
spruces and Towering shrubs, and
about 80 apple, cherry and plum
trees. The first was offered for SOS
an acre, and the other for $40 an
acre. Quite a number of people want
ing farms visited the two, and the
one having the lawn and fruit was
taken two months before a buyer
for the other was found.-Farm and

NEW HAT FROM PORTO RICO.
Summer HeRdgenr Made of Grass and
Is Light and Cool But Won't
Stand Wetting.

One OF the things our new island pos
sessions have brought us is a new
kind of summe hat. 1t comes from
Porto Rico and is made of woven grass,
says the New York Sun.
The color is a bright tan, the shape
OF the Fedora, and the cost is small.
The hat has not become very popular
yet, but a few are seen in New York
streets and many more in the sub
urbs.
In its simplest form the hat has a
wide band of the same material and
the same color wound around the
crown, but some of the bands are dyed
red and blue, and the hats ornamented
with these are very gay indeed. A
variation from the usual form is a
sombrero shape with an extra wide
brim.
The advantages of the hats are
lightness and GOODNESS. The slightest
breeze penetrates the woven grass.
The principal disadvantage is that if
once wet they shrink, and to counter
act this as far as possible each hat
contains q strong leather swaziland.

They Help Dairymen to Build Up q
Retail Milk Trade Mt Profit
able Prices.

The scrupulous neatness shown in
the II of cows; the cleanliness of
the stalls and the milk vessels; the
practice of milking with clean, dry
hands, and discarding the first
streams drawn from each teat; the
removal of milk from the stable to
a clean milk room for weighing,
straining and aeration as soon as it
is drawn; keeping the milk at a low
temperature in summer, and insuring
careful delivery of the milk or cream
in fine condition at the factory; care
full attention to the comfort of the
COW in summer as well as in winter;
to the quality, quantity and compost
ton of the cows feed and the water
supply; forethought and preparation
for an abundant supply of pasture or
soiling crops, such as will keep up the
milk flow summer and winter with
out interruption during the entire
period of lactation-these are some
of the finishing touches which dis
tinguish the work of a dairyman
from that of a cow-keeper-the prac-
tice of the thoroughbred from hat
of the scrub dairyman. A well-kept
horse and an attractive wagon and
harness; a neat, intelligent and oblig-
ing delivery man; shining cans and
measures; sterilized, sweet-smelling
well-flled bottles, with the intelligent
care of the milk from cow to Gus
toner, are some of the finishing
touches that build up a retail milk
trade at paying prices and distinguish
a thoroughbred dairyman from a
scrub cow-keeper and milk-peddler.
In every branch of dairy work the
profit and satisfaction is realized
from careful attention to the finish
ing touches.-Dairy and Creamery.

sowing orchard. to Rye.

Orchards that T kept to advantage
receive attention at all seasons. It is
the custom with experienced fruit
to sow the orchard land to
rye in August and turn the growing
rye under before the stalks become
hard. Lime is then broadcasted over
the plowed ground. Some growers use
crimson clover as a winter crop.
The point to observe is to SOW the
clover seed early, not later than the
Uiddle of August.
