DISCRIMINATING Garlic.

To eXterminate garlic in small
patches of ground such as lawns, a
good plan is to put few drops of
carbolic acid on each bunch by means
of machine oil can. Often single
drop will kill garlic plant. Some
say the acid will kill the plant when
applied in winter, when the ground
is frozen. When was in Washington
city two years ago last spring, not
plant of garlic did / see in the White
House lawn, and | have since learned
that the pest was destroyed there
with this acid in the manner above
stated. When it has become estab-
lished in a pasture it is thought the
only sure and feasible way to destroy
it is to turn the sod over and rid the
land of il by cultivation and the
smothering process. Lime the up
turned sod and sow field peas and
oats. After this crop is off keep the
land worked with cut harrow until
time comes to SOW crimson clover,
which is about JAY or August. Then
seed the ground with clover or, pre-
ferably, rye. This twin crop may be
plowed under for late crop of corn
or cut for fodder in time for potatoes.
BY the end of the second season the
garlic will show signs of final decay,
and land may again be seeded in Oc-
tober to bluegrass or pasture grasses
of some hnd.-T. r. Richey, in Epi-
tomist.

ABLACKSMITH'S STRANGE Elk.
PERIENCE.

Goodland, Kan, June 3.-N. Il. AL
bertson, our leading blacksmith, has
been great sufferer from Rheuma-
tism. He was so bad that he could not
sleep for the great pain in his arms
and shoulders. He had been afflicted
for years, but lately he was so much
worse, that he thought he would have
to give up his shop altogether.
Then a strange thing happened. A
friend of his recommended new med
icine called Dodd's Kidney Pills, said
to be cure for rheumatism. lie
commenced to use them and at once
began to recover. His pain has all left
him, and he is well man to-day, and
entirely free from any symptom OF
Rheumatism.
TO say he is thankful, is putting 1t
very mildly. He is delighted.
Dodd's Kidney Pills deserve great
credit for having cured this very Sc
we're and almost hopeless case. -''3a
From recent reports, there does not
seem to be anything that they will not
cure, as very bad cases of Brigh rs Dis
ease, Diabetes, Dropsy, Rheumatism,
and Heart Trouble, have been cured by
Dodds Kidney Pills, even after hav-
ing been given up by the best doctors.

year. IL may be that the war OF lsoA
developed the art of horseback riding.
1t may be that the sedentary lives OF
the jewellers of our growing cities has
created the more general desire for
this healthful form of exercise. 10
may be that the invitation of English
fashions has had something TO do
with the new tendency. Whatever
the cause, the fact remains that the
popularity of this amusement is con-
stantly gaining among our people,
and that every year sees more riders
in nearly all he cities of the United
States. For time bicycle riding
seemed to threaten Craftsmanship,
and the value of good saddle horse
went down nearly a third. But with
in the last ye,r.ynlurs have advanced
to the old stan6nfd, and there is as
good demand for saddle horses as
ever. That riding is one of the best
forms of physical exercise is n fact,
proved by common sense, experience,
and the testimony of the best physi-
clans. This form of exercise takes
place in the open air; it expands the
chest, quickens the circulation,
strengthens nearly all the muscles,
increases the healthy action of the
liver, awakens the mind, calls the rid
ers attention away from himself and
his business cares, and gives him
while in the saddle feeling of power
and an eXhilration of the spirits
which have no evil reaction and which
are especially captivating to every
one who loves to be out doors. In q
way the bicycle does all this; but
there is an eXhiliration in horseback
riding to which the bicycle rider
never attains.-F. II. s., in Agricul
tural Epitomist.

THE HORSE FOR RIDING.
Every Year in Showing Greater
Demand for the High Glass
Saddle Horse.

In the days Of Washington, the best
horseman of his time, travelling in
land was n serious matter. The water
courses were used as far as possible,
but they gave access only to limited
region, and the moment the traveller
with roads, stretching away through
deep forests, full of mire in the shad-
ed spots and rough in the open coun-
try. Streams were crossed by wad-
ing through the current. Journeys,
therefore, were more comfortably
and rapidly performed in the saddle
than by wagon. The settlers were in
the habit of riding to town on week
days, with their bags of grain to be
ground and on general marketing err
rands, and to church on Sundays, on
the backs of the plodding horses,
which at other times, were engaged
in the work of cultivating the farms.
The longer journeys were always per-
formed on horseback, when comfort
and comparative speed were demand
ed. The mails were carried in the
saddle also. In these later days of
high civilization, the farmer drives to
carriage over smooth and hard roads.
The mails are carried at lightning
speed by railroad trains, and travel
crs are transported by steam convey
anccs to every part of the land. Horse
back or carriage riding from necessi-
ty, for purely unitarian purposes,
has come nearly to an end, at least in
the northern states; and the little
there is left of it is substantially con
fined to the minister and doctor visit
ing their country clients and the re-
mote farm boys who go down every
day to the railroad station for the
newspapers and letters.
In the south there is more general
riding than in the north, but it is
growing less yearly. 1t is in the army
and among the cowboys on the plains
that, in this period, the principal APP
plications of Craftsmanship on an ex-
tended scale to purely practical pur-
poses are found. Once a leading re-
source for rapid locomotion over long
| distances among an active people, en-
gagged in clearing up a vast wilder
ness, the art is now no longer of gen
eral practical utility in the new re-
| public; and it has become, instead, so
far as the majority of the population
| are concerned, merely an elegant ac-
complishment, and means to the ac-
QUESTION of health and the enjoyment
of exciting open air recreation.
Thirty years ago there was very lit
tie riding even for recreation in the
northern tates. +. II is the new fea-
ture of Workmanship in America that
the number of horses employed under
the saddle is now growing rapidly,
the demand for them increasing every

A Kentucky Industry.

Kentucky has more than one great
industry. Ninety per cent. of all the
blue grass seed of the world is grown
in six Kentucky counties. Between
10000 and 10000 acres of the best blue
grass land in the great blue grass
state are devoted to this purpose.
Many large farms of 500 to 1000 acres
are used for seed crops year after
year, and about $4,000 bushels is the
output. When the seeds are stripped
off, cleaned and taken to market, the
farmer gets about $1,4O per bushel for
it. The stripper is large machine
that passes over the field, with fine
toothed combs, that literally COM
the seeds out.-Farm and Ranch.

FARMER ANDPLANTER
THE CULTURE OF PECANS.
A Most Profitable Product for Farm
ers 10 Invest In for Flu
ture Results.

The pecan is one of the most profit
able nuts that can be grown in the
southern and western states where
the soil and climate are both adapted
to such trees. The tree begins bear
ing at an early age, and continues
for an indefinite period without re-
quiring much care in pruning. Paying
crops may be harvested when the
trees are from eight to ten years old.
The trees will yield from one bushei
TO twenty every year during the me
time of the planter. The nuts are
always in demand at prices ranging
about one dollar per bushel when
sacked or barreled for the market.
AS the trees may be set as closely
as an apple orchard, there is certain
ly money in the planting of such Il
grove, in addition to the value OF the
timber, which is equal to almost any
of the hard woods Tor commercial
uses.
The trees are native to the coun-
try south of parallel 40 in the United
States, and are rapidly coming to the
front as commercial productions.
Texas, Kentucky and Missouri are
noted for wild pecan growth, but the
commercial world is supplied almost
entirely from Texas, Louisiana and
California.
The soil best adapted to pecan cul-
ture is probably the sandy loan of
river and creek beds, where there is
plenty of leaf mold, and the plant
food necessary for hard wood trees.
Experienced men report sandy loan
with clay subsoil the best, while the
black lands of swamps comes next
in Importance, The clay soils give
earlier crops, but the nuts are small
and unstable.
Pecans may be propagated from
seed, which can be planted the same
rs other nuts. Probably the quickest
and cheapest plan is to transplant
nursery grown trees. They may be
purchased at reasonable prices from
those having nut trees for sale.
Small ones are the most preferable,
as they will live better. Forty feet
apart is wide enough to plant the
trees. This will give 40 trees to the
acre, and insure from 200 to 1000
bushels of salable nuts ever year
after the trees come into good bear
ing. Clean cultivation is necessary for
the first few years after planting a
grove. If the space between trees is
planted to COW peas, velvet beans
melons or similar crops, and com
plete fertilizer used on the cover
crops, the trees will hasten to ma.
turity and become profitable in a few
years. AS the trees develop the cul.
tivation between rows may cease, but
it is necessary to continue feeding
the old trees with plant foods.
There are several varieties of pc.
cans coming from improving the old
native trees. The Stuart, Van Deman
Centennial and Frotches are the most
popular. The points to be consid
cred in planting any varieties are the
quality in favor, plumpness of kernc
and soft shell. Trees should be plant.
ed so as to assist in fertlizing the
blossoms OF those that otherwise
would not bear fruits. Sometimes
grating of superior varieties is sue
cessfully accomplished, but it is bet
ter to get only first class trees in the
start and care for them properly, an,
thus be insured good profits wher
they bear.-Joel Shoemaker, in Farm
ers' Home Journal.
