Two Pasaengers' Dislikes

A lady Of truly masculine spirit, nc.
cempaned by small poodle, is said to
have failed sadly the other day in an at.
tempted reformatory movement. She en-.
tered the smoking car OF a suburban train
and sternly refused when approached by
the conductor to go into another car. OBJ
serving that her presence would keep the
other occupants from smoking.
One thick skinned wretch, however, In.
sensible to the claims Of refinement and
reform, began to enjoy his accustomed
cigar, which was suddenly snatched from
his lips, with the remark in a high treble:
IF there is anything do hate. It lie
tobacco smoking"
For time the offender was motionless;
then, gravely rising amid the curiosity OF
the assembled smokers, he took that lit
tie poodle out Of the lady's lap and gently
threw him through the window, signing.
IF there is anything | do hate, 1t is a
poodle. "-Chicago Tribune.

Deep Planting of Potatoes.

Some fear that deep planting of po-
tatocs will make the harvesting more
difficult. Its advocates say that if
coupled with the deep planting the cul-
tlyation Of the crop is continued late in
the season the mellowness Of the soil
and the freedom from late summer
weeds compensate for the tubers lying
n little deeper in the soil
Again, some claim that If they do
not hill up" the plants many tubers
will be damaged by exposure to the
sun. If, however, the land has been
deeply and thoroughly prepared and
the planting is sufficiently deep so that
there is plenty of room In the mellow
soil for the tubers to develop beneath
the surface, there will be few "sun-
burns" but If the fitting and planting
are shallow killing is necessary to pro-
eant tho tuhor1

MONEY OUT OF DROUGHT.
Irrigation as Good as Gold Mine In
Dry Season.

Recently we passed through fifteen
acre potato field situated alongside L
stream of water. The potato tops were
yellowing and shgivellng from the
want Of water and the tubers We're
small and few in number. Yet enough
water flowed by that field in an hour
or SO to wet the soil down to the roots.
\ few rods Of iron pipe and small
pump and gasoline engine would have
made that field produce at least 1000
bushels, whereas, trusting to the elc-
ments. ii viii not produce POO bushels,
says the Ohio Farmer 1t is not every
farmer who can irrigatc his crops. at
least to any great extent, but many
can do 50 at comparatively small OK
pense, because they are fortunately
situated. The many will not or cannot
lrrigate The profit to the few who
can and do is all the greater There are
few seasons in which irrigation can
not he made profitable anywhere and
there comes a season every once in
awhile when the profit is large, as this
year, for instance.
Some successful irrigation plants
from wells are described by the jour
nal mentioned. Two brothers. who do
a general gardening business, have
sunk wells, getting water at a depth of
twenty five feet, and to pump the wa
ter out they use windmills, which
pump it into large tanks holding about
100 barrels of water each The tank
is placed on stand or platform about
fifteen feet from the ground so as to
give pressure ON the pipes laid around
through the garden The pipes have

hose or sprinkler can he applied and
the plants Watcred at amy time This
can lie done 10y hand or the sprinkler
can be set UP 50 @ TO run itself aud
can he moved from time to time Whpr-
ever needed. The farmer who had to
sit helpless and see his crop burned
up during the recent dry spell viii
surely soc the great advantage of such
an irwigating plant. The wndmills
cost 800 and the tanks ana platforms
about $50 each. The cost Of the pipe
is small These men make celery their
main crop, and they find that their ir-
rigatuS plant enables them to raise
larger crops and, by forcing it to grow
at the proper time. to improve it in
flavor.
The Ohio Farmer urges the adyan-
tage of this system in gardening and
small truck farming in any location:
Where land lies along a stream of wa
ter that never fails lrrigating may be
done on a large scale, and where the
water supply comes from higher ground
and only needs piping or bitches the
opportunity should never be lost. Such
a location is as good as a gold mine in
dry seasons when prices are high.

Perhaps Your Pastures Need Help.

Perhaps Your Pastures Need Help.
The severe drought has been hard on
pastures, both on account of lack Of
moisture and on account of livestock
ing. The sod Is killed out In places,
and weeds will come in. The lifetime
OF these pastures could be prolonged
by some attention right now. The best
way to control weeds is to crowd them
out, and there is no better plant than
timothy to do this with until better
pasture grasses can get new foothold.
In September, no matter If the wealth
er Is dry, grain drill with sharp hoes
should be run over all thin patches in
the pasture, distributing one-fourth to
one-third of bushel Of timothy seed
an acre in connection with 200 pounds
an acre of a high grade acid phosphate.
The drill holes will cut the thin sod so
that some of the seed will find fresh
soil for starting when the fall rains
come, and the trash of the old sod will
furnish some winter protection to the
new plants. If some stable manure can
be spared for a light top dressing, it
will pay well in making a sod that win
choke out the weeds. We expect too
much of our pastures and help them
too little, says Farm and Fireside
writer.

POINTS FOR THE TRUCKER.
"A Reputation For Good Packing II
an Asset of Big Value.

The kind of packages used in ham
ding the different truck crops varies
greatly in the different trucking re-
glons, and the packages are now in
many cases very different from those
that were used in the early days of
the business.
After many trials the cheap gift
package made of thin veneer was de-
vised which in some of its forms is
now so universally used. In the east
it would be utterly impossible to han
die the present volume of business in
any but gift packages. For berries a
quart or sometimes pint box or bas-
ket is used, and these are packed in
crates for shipment.
In the west the popular package for
most tree fruits tomatoes and many
other vegetables was for many years a
rectangular box holding one-third of a
bushcl with sawed ends or heads, a
middle piece ) by 8 inches and veneer
sides - inches long. This package
finally became discredited through
the pernicious practice of placing the
best specimens at the cracks and fill
ing the middle of the box with culls.
1t is now comparatively but little
used.
There has been no greater drawback
to the trucking industry than the va
riOuS forms of dishonest or false pack
ing, and it is indeed remarkable that
growers will still be so shortsighted
as to continue the practice when its
evil effects are so we'll understood
In the east, particularly in the PENN
sula region, an open slat basket hold
ing about five-elghths Of a bushel has
long been a popular package for tree
fruits and many vegetables. 1t is a
cheap package and one in which the Ia
Dor of packing is reduced to q mini
mum. In many ways 1t is very salts
factory, but for long shipments Of the
more delicate products 1t would be
better If made broader and shallower.
These open baskets require the cars
to be shelved. In Michigan some form
Of fat handled basket is largely used.
In the south light six quart veneer
basket packed In four basket or six
basket crates is most used for toma-
toes, peaches, etc. Beans, peas, Gu
cumbers and many other vegetables
are packed in bushel crates.
In adopting a package 1t is always
best to study the taste of the market
It is proposed to supply and to con-
form to the prevailing usage. Buyers
always prefer the package to which
they are accustomed, and In most cases
they will pay more for goods In what
is considered a standard package than
In one that is unusual.
Whatever the package. the greatest
care should always be used In selecting
and packing to make the goods as neat
and attractive as possible and at the
same time Of uniform quality through
out the package.
Only good, sound, honestly packed
goods should be sent to market, and all
culls should be vigorously thrown out
and kept at home for stock feed. The
average prices realized for truck prod
ucts would thus be greatly improved,
and one of the most annoying features
of the business would be eliminated.

asset of the greatest value to the truck
shipper.-F. S. Earle, Alabama Station.

A DUCK FOR THE FARM.
The PeISin Popular For All Practical
Purposes and Easily Raised.

The Pekin Popular For All Practical
Purposes and Easily Raised.
OF all ducks for farm and practical
purposes none stand higher in popular
esteem than the White Pekin. 1t is
valuable for raising on a large scale
and is the most easily raised of any.
1t is a very timid bird and must be
handled quite carefully.
The Pekin duck has distinct type
of its own and differs from all others
in the shape and carriage OF its body,
owing TO the full growth Of feathers
under the rump and the singular turn
ed up tail. The legs are set far back,
which causes the bird TO walk in an
upright position.
In size these ducks are very large,
some reaching as high as twenty
pounds to the pair. Their flesh is very
delicate and free from grossness. ana
they are considered among the best Of
table fowls.
They are excellent layers, averaging
from 100 to 100 eggs each in a season.
They are nonsetters, hardy, easily
raised and the earliest In maturing Of
any ducks.
The standard bred Pekin has a long,
finely formed head, a bill OF medium
size of a deep yellow color that is per-
fectly free from any mark or color
other than yellow The wings are
short, carried closely and smoothly
against the body. The birds cannot

The Newly Planted Trees - Latest
Sweet Corn-AsparnRus Plants.
Here are some breezy hints from The
Farm Journal:
Hoe around newly planted trees
water them and mulch with strawy
manure
Cut off the suckers from newly graft
ed trees.
Get the borers punched out during
this month. Make q thorough job Of
It,
Now look out for the yellows in the
peach orchard. a sure sign is pre-
mature fruit Is there limb contain
Ing highly colored fruit ripening away
ahead Of the others? Then that tree
has the yellows and ought to be
grubbed out
Please be vigilant now In looking for
San Jose scale louise. If the tree is in
tested, the insects will appear on the
fruit. Look for circular, purplish
blotches-then you have it.
As soon as the pods of cabbage seed
show dark red seed inside when
broken open it is time to harvest Most
people wait until tile pods are ripe
and brown and the seeds black This
is mistake
When frosts seem imminent, cut
stalks Of sweet corn which still have
ears suitable for table use ana store
them in a building. The husks will
protect the ears, they will ripen no
further on account Of the loss Of sap
and often remain In perfect condition
for two weeks.
Use only male asparagus plants

nent bed. They make stronger roots.
larger stalks and are more productive.
Cut out those plants when seed begins
TO form, and when seedlings are old
enough to bear seed they can also be
destroyed.

method says Orange Judd Farmer,
