Making of Watch alaa,es

Watch glasses ought not to be ex- Densive, and are not. In the produce tion of common watch glasses, the glass is blown into sphere about a meter in diameter, sufficient material being taken to give the desired thick. ness. as the Case may be. Disks are then cut out from the sphere with the aid of pair of compasses, having 8 diamond at the extremity of one lea. There is a knack of detaching the disc after it has been cut A good work man will, 1t is said. cut 5000 glasses in day.

THE sOUTH'S ADVANTAGE.

Tn twenty years the number ot .hales of cotton raised in the South has increased from 5,761 ,252 to 10,- 300 900. The capital invested m cotton mills has risen from S21,91b,- 900 to $150,0Oo,000. The amount Of cotton consumed in southern mills has jumped from 188, ,744 bales of l. 567112 bales, while the spindles have increased from 667.854 to 6,200,o0o.
 The United States treasury report says. the advantages in favor of the South for the growth of the cotton trade are prepondefating. Some one has said that iii the great stretch ot mountain country which runs from Wheeling to Birmingham there is forty times as much coal as Great Britain had before the first pick was stuck in the ground. West Virginia alone has 16,000 square miles of coal to Great Britain's 12,000. Now that oil has been struck in Texas-the greatest cotton producing state in the world-the fuel question has been further removed from doubt.
 
 Cheap fuel not only favors the South, but recent developments have made freights to the Orient cheaper than ever before With the consoli dations of the railroads, shorter routes to the seaboard have been made. Direct connection by steamer is now possible The cotton, as the report says, is indigenous, thus eff fecting a second saving in the cost of transportation. At the present time, the South has practical monopoly of the produc- tion of cotton, furnishing three l fourths of the cotton for the 100000 l 900 spindles in the world. Instead of | S,000,000 spindles, there should be 75,000, 900. It is hardly too much to believe that some day this will come to pass Instead of $15O, 900 900 in- vested in cotton mills there should be s1,S00,000,000, controlling the cot ton manufacture of the world What a possibility-What probability,

HOW TO PRUNE TREES.
The Longer the Stubs Are Left the
Longer They Are in Healing
Over and Recovering.

All persons familiar with birches
and naples know that if any limbs
are taken from them in the late win
ter or spring time, the stubs will bleed
freely for number of weeks; and if
such limbs are large ones, they seldom
heal over before decay has COM
menced in them.
Apple and pear trees will bleed more
or less when pruned at the same sea-
sons of the year; and for that reason
no pruning, when large limbs are to be
taken off, should be done at that time
of the year. When pruning is done
during the three midsummer months,
the stubs commence to heal over quite
soon, and they can be painted within
few days after pruning, if the
weather is warm and dry, which cam
not be done, and have the paint hold,
if the pruning is done before the
bleeding has ceased to flow. During
the summer months the sap is thick
ening for the making of new wood,
and is largely near the bark and not
in the older wood of the trees. Trees
that are pruned in the spring are from
one to two years longer in healing
than if pruned in summer, and that
fact is of great Importance when the
life and health of the trees are taken
into consideration.
Now, how should tree be pruned?
Should the stubs be left long or short,
or with as little wood as the circum-
stances will permit. Any person who
has taken much notice of how others
have pruned, as well as his own work,
has noticed that the longer the stubs
are left the longer they are in healing
over and in many cases they never
heal over, but dry up or decay, which
in many cases is the beginning of the
decay and death of the tree.
One other error in pruning is often
made in not saving the limbs off as
nearly as possible perpendicular with
the body of the trees or the larger
limbs from which they are taken. By
taking off the limbs perpendicular
rather than horizontal, more or less,
the lower parts of the stub or wound
will heal over nearly or quite as soon
as the upper part.-Jonas H. Priest,
| in Country Gentleman.

MANAGING THE CALF.
A Lot of Valuable Information Con-
densed for the Benefit of Busy
Farm Readers

To make him pay, the calf requires
careful handling. He starts life with
baby stomach. To overfeed him is
to invite failure. 1t usually makes
him scour. This stops growth and
perhaps kills him, making loss IN
either case. If he doesn't scour ne
bloats with poisonous gas generated
by the surplus food he cannot di-
gest, and the 'pot-bellied' calf with
staring coat ia long time recover
ing from untkrifty conditions and
starting to grow.
Don't let calf drink daily until
he can drink no more. Find out his
capacity and then give a quarter less
than his limit. If he can be forced
to drink it slowly, thus mixing the
saliva with it, SO much the better.
For this reason a calf feeder is a
good thing. Food is eaten to be di-
gested. The saliva well distributed
in the food while in the mouth is
the great agent of digestion. A pail
hung up well above the calf, to which
the milk is brought through a small
hose partly stopped, so he can get
the milk but slowly, is an invaluab BILE
aid in successful feeding, either for
raising or the block. But such a
CONTINUANCE must be cleansed daily
in boiling water or it will prove a
death trap. The milk remaining in
the pail and tube will putrefy and
produce germ disease similar to
cholera infantum, which destroys so
many babies and originates in food
vessels and bottles imperfectly
cleansed.
The calf is valuable newcomer,
provided it is handled right. In the
calf, the dairy cow has her begin
ming To raise the best heifer calves
for the dairy or sale is polite. Every
other calf should be made into veal
or "baby beef" as soon as possible.
The man who destroys a calf for
it's pelt to-day is considered a poor
manager
Keep the calf pen dry and whole
odor about it carry in peck Of dry
earth and spread it on a few quarts
of land plaster. If sweet milk or
whey cannot be got for every days
feed accustom the calf to sour drink
and do not give any that is sweet.
Calves do just as we'll on sour milk
as on sweet. Uniform quality of food
is what is required. If butter or
cream is being sold one can easily
make veal at the same time by care
fully observing the above rules and
adding to skim milk slowly increas-
ing ration of whole faXseed jelly.
Thus one herd of cows may return
double profits by producing butter
and veal at the same time.
To teach the calf to drink, hold the
pail in one hand. AS soon as the calf
will suck your fingers turn your hand
under it's jaw, and its nose will fol-
low your fingers to the milk. Calves
should be treated to dry dust and
salt, as this regulates their digestive
organs and keeps them from scour-
ing.-Farm Journal.

Plant sweet corn every two weeks.
Rhubarb should have the flower
stalks broken out.
Persistent cutting off of the crowns
of docks will kill them.
The best time to pull next years
crop of weeds is this year.
Thin grapes by removing every al
ternate bunch where they are thickly
set.
Seeds sown broadcast are cheaply
planted, but to cultivate them is ex-
pensive. Sow in drills, the straighter
the better.
The currant borer is at work when
the tops of the canes begin to wither
and die. Look for black spot and
cut the cane off below this point and
burn it.
Grapevines frequently have to run
the gauntlet of late freeze If bad
ly injured, the right way to treat them
is to cut them back to the first or
second bud. This will throw al the
strength of the roots into the new
wood for next years bearing. It is
hoped, however, such casualty will
be spared US this year.-Farm Jour

WESTERN CANADA'S DECEM-
Der WEATHER EQUAL TO
THAT OF MAY IN MIN
NESOTA.
To the Editor:

To the Editor:
Thomas Regain and C. Collins, of
Eden Valley, Minnesota, went out to
Western Canada last December as dele
gates, to look over the grazing and
grain lands that are being offered at
such low prices and reasonable terms.
This is what they say:
"Wearrived in Calgary about the goth
December and although we had left
winter in Minnesota and Manitoba,
we were surprised to find beautiful
warm weather at this point, quite equal
to what we have in May in Minnesota.
There was no snow nor trace of winter
splendid. Horses, cattle and sheep
were running out, in prime condition,
with plenty of feed on the prairie, and
really better than that of ours stabbed
in the south. We are impressed with
this country as one of the finest mixed
farming countries we have ever seen.
The immense tracts of fertile lands,
well sheltered and abundantly wa
tered, leave nothing to be desired.
Leaving Alberta we returned east
and visited the Yorkton district in
Assiniboia. We drove out about ten
miles at this point and were highly
pleased with the splendid samples of
grain we were able to see, wheat yield
ing IS bushels, oats 60 bushels. Roots
were also good specimens. From what
we have seen, we have decided to
throw in our lot with the Yorktoners
satisfied that this part of the coun-
try will furnish good opportunities
for anyone anxious to make the best
of a really good country. Any agent
of the Canadian Government, whose
advertisement appears elsewhere in
the columns of your paper will give
you full particulars of the new dis
tricts being opened out this year in
Assiniboia and Saskatchewan.
Yours truly,
