MANAGING A GARDEN.
Ohio Farmer Describes n Method
Which, He Thinks, Saves Com
siderable Time and Labor.

There are doubtless many who, like
myself, do not find much time to de-
vote to the garden. I know two farm
ers who have discontinued their gar
dens, saying that they do not pay for
the work they require, and there are
many who would not have any worth
mentioning if the women folks did not
volunteer to lend hand. Take the
consnon form of garden with every
thing in beds and paths between; there
is connected with it vast amount of

ter Of a pound of it to ten or twelve
quarts of water. Shave it up fine, cover
with warm water, and set it on the
stove to melt. When liquid add it to
the water, and then dip your plants in
it. Leave them in it for half a min
