Walks and Drives Through Lawns.

Walks and subsidiary drives must be
provided where people want to walk
or where they expect to drive. Neither
Is artistic in itself. Every foot OF
walk or drive is a trouble, an expense
and usually a distinct detraction from
the artistic beauty of the place. They
should, then. be designed to fit the
actual demands of traffic about the
place. The most practicable thing Is
often to await the most explicit call
for walk. When a path begins to
appear through the grass. the need of
walk is manifest and It's general di.
rection pretty accurately indicated.
Gentle curves are better than
straight lines for walks, except upon
small places or in a geometrical plan.
These curves must be determined by
the exercise Of good taste and judg
ment, on the ground. A design mac3
on paper is apt to be very unsatisfac-
tory when transferred to the soil, I'M
less 1t is made by an experienced hanf
from an accurate typographical sur
vey. Even then it may not fit. Curve
made up of arcs Of circles are not very
satisfactory, unless the arcs are COM
paratively short and judiciously com.
bined. If road is properly made, only
very short arc will be visible from
any point; and this enables the de-
signer when working on the grounL
Greene County herald. (Leakesville, Miss.) 1898-current, 1901-02-08

to make many curves and combina
lions Of curves which would be decid-
eddy unpleasing If accurately plated
on map.
When walk or drive branches, each
arm should take such a course as to
appear to be the proper continuation
Of the trunk. Imagine how one arm
would look with the other removed.
Would 1t still be complete? Would the
whole seem to be the perfectly natural
course for the walk? Such bifurca-
tons should not be at too obtuse an
angle; and yet this angle of divergence
Is of quite minor Importance If the
foregoing consideration is kept fully
In mind. The right and the faulty
way of laying out branching walks IL
clearly shown In the accompanying
diagram.-F. A. Waugh, In American
Agriculturist.

At a recent Farmers Institute In
Maine, Professor G. NJ. Gowell of the
University Of Maine, began by saying
that the general opinion had gone
abroad that the soil of the State OF
Maine was not fertile or productive,
but the chemist had proved that
this was not the case by ANALYSIS of
the soil from various average Maine
farms, and in every case it had been
found to contain enough Of the essen
tial plant foods to produce maximum
crops for an almost unlimited number
of years; the reason why good crops
were not produced lay in the fact that
these ingredients were in such COM
position that while the chemist could
easily find it the plant was unable TO
DO so; the farmer must, therefore. till
the soil in such a manner that these
plant foods would be available to the
plant; this must be done by turning
the soil and allowing the air to circu-
late freely through it. The same thing
might be said Of many of the worn out
farms elsewhere in New England, but
IN many there is need for returning to
the soil a supply of organic matter.
which was abundant when the land
was newly cleared This, by its decay
IN the soil, not only adds fertility, but
makes it more porous that air may
penetrate into it, and helps to make
available the mineral elements In it..
Where the farm is remote from large
cities and not much stock is kept the
easiest and cheapest way to obtain the
organic matter is to grow green crops
to piow under. For this purpose clover
stands at the head, where it will
grow but peas, buckwheat, rye and
other green crops may be used.

II the law bel Observed, women wiz

II the law be observed, women with
trailing skirts will soon be novelties
in Vienna, as the local council has d.
rected all women frequenting the pub
lie parks and gardens to hold up their
skirts If they would otherwise trail
them on the ground. The reason for
this measure - rather peurile. The
notice states that these Enclosures are
devoted to the recreation of persons
DESTROYS Of escaping from the dusty
town, and therefore the authorities
object to the dust being swept into
heaps by the trailing skirts.

Fall-Planted Trees.

Nhere one can oversee the digging
and transplantlng Of fruit trees in the
rail- there is less likelihood of tbei,
being set back by the change. It Is
crying shame in many parts of the
country to see the utter Indifference
with which nurserymen take I'D trees
sold to farmers and ship them to their
destination in q condition that Will
cause total or partial failure. The only
way to make them more careful is to
nave inserted in the purchasing con.
tracts a clause requiring the nursery
man to make good any trees that die
from exposure of roots or Door
packing when shipped. There are
plenty who will tell you that It
does not hurt young trees to be dug IN
IN the late fall, and even if the roots
are disturbed it matters little. That
sort of talk has just a little grain of
ruth in it. 1t does not hurt the young
trees to be disturbed nearly as much
as 1t does old ones; nor does it hurt
them so much in late fall when the
roots are frozen; but hurt them it does.
and 1t will put any tree back from one
to two seasons.
You can transplant a large, full
growing tree without checking its de-
yelopment in one way only, and that is
by digging up an enormous ball Gf
frozen earth with the sroots. The big
and small roots must not be disturbed.
and the ball of earth must be kept
closely clingiDg to them. If this is
done with great care gigantic elms.
oaks and naples can be trapsplanted
without causing them any apparent In
jury. A knowledge of this should
help us in the matter Of transplanting
fruit trees. We should follow exactly
the same directions / have time aud
again transplanted young trees from
the nursery in this way, and they
have absolutely not lost n months
growth. Alongside of them l have
planted other stock that has been
shipped in the ordinary way, where
the roots had been disturbed, although
there was an apology for ball of
earth wrapped around them. The
comparative results in the growth
were such as to convince me that there
Is only one true and successful way
to transplant young and old trees. Dig
them up in the fall Of the year when

Feeding Hens in Winter.

1t Is so easy, comparatively. to have
hens lay In winter, that 1t is an mex
cusable waste and bad management
not to have them lay. To have plenty
of fresh eggs upon our own table Is a
consideration that Is worthy Of all the
effort that Is required to stimulate the
hens to lay; but the profit on the eggs
we may have to sell In winter is far
greater than the profit we derive from
anything else that is produced on the
farm. 1t is unnecessary to say any
thing about warmth in this connec-
ton. for we all know that without
warmth, we cannot get eggs. 1t Is
equally unnecessary to mention the ne
cessity Of exercise or to mention the
fact that plenty of litter with grain
scattered through it is the proper
means for inducing hens to exercise.
Some other features of the business,
however, may probably receive notice.
Ii we expect the highest success In
winter egg production, we must feed q
variety. When the thermometer Is
low, we should feed plenty of whole
corn at night. Warm water twice a
day, in cold weather, is very beneficial.
In very cold or stormy weather the
fowls should be kept indoors. The
practice of feeding corn all the time
which Is common on the farm-is I'M
wise. Corn is not an egg producer.
1t is a fat former. and for the produc-
ton of eggs, heterogeneous foods are
used. Wheat is splendid food of this
character, and 1t may be fed from
January to December, with excellent
results, a statement that cannot be
made as to corn. Especially is much
corn harmful to the large. compare
lively inactive breeds. The small
breeds, which are always active, can
manage steady corn diet better. il
must always be remembered that q
confined hen cannot be fed large
quantities of corn as safely as can one
that is on the range. Yarded fowls
can be kept successfully the entire
year without a grain of corn, although
as already said, corn at night in cold
weather is excellent feed. The yollS
of the egg of the yarded fowls is Eof
as yellow as that of the eggs of the
fowls that are on the range. The
reason of this, is the lack of green
food and coloring matter. Yellow corn
will give the higher color, but it is
not advisable to feed 1t in sufficient
quantities to accomplish the purpose
especially as the average consumer
will be satisfied with lighter colored
yolk, If the egg is fresh. In the con
struction of houses, it may be said il
this connection, provision should be
made for the admission of plenty OF
sunshine in winter.-Horatio Wood, in
Agricultural Epitomist.
