A First- cIas. Dairyman.

| have in my minds eye a certain
man who is a living example of what
study and care will do for the dairy
man. This man was going along with
few cows of common stock, like the
most of his neighbors. He made ends
meet, but that was about all he did
do. One day he made up his mind
that life was too short and time 200
valuable to be spent in a slipsnod way
Then he turned over a new leaf, and
he turned it clear over, too He sold
every COW he had and began to Duild
up a dairy His choice happened %
fall on the Jerseys. At first he went
miles away from home to get a calf
from first class stock. If he heard
OF good cow of the breed he fancied
he went and bought her, no matter
if he did have to pay a good round
sum. This he kept up year after
year, until now he stands at the head
of his profession in the section where
he lives. Now men 90 to him for
stock. His COWS two years ago
brought him in s65 each for the sea
sen. | have not heard the figures
since. Now, what is the reason the
rest of us cannot do just as well?-

Sphinx brings the warning that that
wondrous marvel of the ancient world,
the Egyptian Sphinx, is rapidly de-

Egypt due to the irrigation of recent
years.
A few years ago an hours downfall
of rain once a year was a novelty in
Egypt. The natives regarded it as
some dire message of reproach from
the gods. The irrigation and the

changed this. Fifteen to eighteen

Anyone who persists in adhering
to the old idea of allowing tomato
vines to sprawl over the ground at
random can hardly expect to raise
such fruit as the thorough gardener
who ties them up to stakes and trains
them according TO system The for
mer is sure to lose tomatoes, since
those coming in contact with the
ground will rot more or less. 1t
Is true that when tomato vines are
trained upon stakes they may not
yield any more fruit in proportion to
the vine than when left upon the
ground, but they will generally pro-
duce larger and better fruit less like
ly to become defective before matur-
ing. Here are two points of vital i'm
Portance in favor of training tomato
vines upon stakes.
Whether one raises tomatoes on a
large or small scale, It is by all
means advisable to stake them in
some manner. BY SO Gcing the work
OF picking is simpliaed, and if they
are trained On a sort Of trelliswOrk
along the rows one can walk between
the hills and gather them quickly.
One can also watch the condition Of
the vines more readily than when
they are permitted TO sprawl all over
the ground. and it is less difficult to
keep The worms and grubs away.
Stalking is really far superior to the
old method in every respect, and
when it is done in time it is always
comparatively easy.
Wonderful to relate the longer the
tomato is grown on one kind Of soil
and in the same place with good care
the better it will thrive If possible,
therefore, ground suitable for tomato
culture should be selected and kept
for that purpose. The ground having
been well prepared in the spring. a
stake should be driven into the soil
at intervals of 10 feet and so arranged
as TO present long rows about two
and a half feet apart. The tomatoes
should then be planted in hills along
these rows, and as the vines begin
to spread strong Irvine should be run
on nails from one stake to another
like wire on fence posts. On this strong
twine the tomato vines can be trained
as grapes are trained on a trellis.
Trained in the manner described
the sun reaches all the tomatoes.
causing them to ripen evenly But
this is not all. New fruit will keep
coming on the vines when thus
trained longer than it otherwise
would, affording just as many green
tomatoes in autumn for picking as if
only few ripe ones had grown dur
ing the season.
Pruning the vines will make them
stocky, and in that case the vitality
of the plants will go into a fewer
number of tomatoes. Hence a.ivan-
tages can be derived by pruning if
large tomatoes are desired but for
general field culture | would not rec
ommend it. An ordinary plant prop
erly trained will usually produce to-
matoes large enough for market with
out any pruning. Cut off dead
branches, trim where the vines are
too thick, and where they have a ten
dency to go all to stem. The result
of such thoroughness will be plenty
OF good fruit, which will find ready
sale in any market.-Agriaultural En-
ZIONIST.

The great problem in running out
apiaries for comb honey is that of
managing swarming. 1t is too eX-
pensiye to go out each day or to send

honey, clips the queens wings during
willow or apple bloom and then equal

The value of tobacco dust as an aid
to successful truck growing is TOO
little appreciated, If there is one in

A jeweler says that valuable family
jewels are almost never worn by their
owners; they are kept in safe deposit
vaults and are not used more than
half a dozen times in half a century.
Ladies have them copied and always
appear wearing the imitation jewels,
which look quite as well. Why" he
added, "a lady would not dare to APP
pear always in the valuable gems she
is known to possess; she would be
robbed and perhaps murdered for
them"
