sleeping babies from the path of the
flames that followed the explosion. Six
other children, sleeping in another por-
ton of the house, were buried under
the roof and walls of the cottage, but
managed to extricate themselves be-
fore the fire reached them. A neigh
boring house was destroyed by the
flames and one of the occupants in
jured by a bit of the bomb.

the Cordeck household, is in the GUS
tody Of the police, suspected of being
responsible for the tragedy that reused
the residents of the town just as dawn
was breaking. He denies his guilt
but the police see a possible double
motive for his interest in the affair
in that he Quarreled with Cordeck
over the loss of some money and In
his attentions to the eldest daughter
suit but was about to marry another
man.

How fo Eurn Suiplln-.

Sulphur is an excellent disenfectant
when burned in the poultry house; but
as sulphur melts and smothers the
fame it is difficult to burn it satisfac-
torily. One way to do so is TO dissolve
one-half pint of pine-tar and one-half
pint of turpertine IN oae-half gallon
OF kerosene in an open vessel. Soak
in this solution large corn-cobs until
they are well saturated. Then take
them from the solution and dust on
them all of the powdered sulphur that
will stick to them. Use nails or pieces
of wire, and insert the pointed enc into
the lerge ends of the cob and then
stick them on the floor. Remove all
the combus,ible matter from the poul-
try house. permitting the fumes to
enter every crack and crevice. all over
the surface. and the lice will be de-
stroyed. This should be done once a
month in warm weathe:.-Garden and

Some of my neighbcrs say that M
eleven-acre farm produces more than
IN adjoining 50-acre farm. II is not
only the little farm well titled" that
comes out ahead: that little farm must
also be filled with growing crops in
their season in order that it may bring
the best results. To illustrate | will
give short chapter from my OWE ex-
perience. Some time in April | planted
early peas on well prepared, fertile
soil. drilling the seed in rows five feet
apart. After the peas were up the
ground was kept free of weeds and
thoroughly cultivated. About May is
I marked the ground out for muskmel-
ons, planting a row of melons half way
between the rows of peas. The peas
were picked green fo- market and the
vines pulled and fed 10 the Jersey COW.
Now, fol- a time. the cultivator had
fair play on the melon patch. After
going over the ground for the last
time before the vines reached Oft to
take full possession. tn-nip seed was
sown over the entire ground. After
the melons had been harvested and the
frost had killed The vines the
rround was covered WIN turnips. which
mad ample time to produce a good crop
before winter set in. This is only one
way of Keeping the ground fully oc-
cupied and not waste the fertility of
the soil in growing a crop of Weeds

The cabbage worms of several kinds
and with several different methods of
operation have already begun there
work on the plants. These pests are,
however, easily destroyed if the matter
is looked after cary. Among the
many remedies which have proved
stiicacious are: Tobacco finely pulver-
lied and busted on when the dew is
on the plants. being careful to do it
thoroughly; cayenne pepper used in
the same manner as the tobacco; one
teaspoonful of saltpeter to a gallon of
water. sprinkled on with a watering

Coal ashes saturated with either coal
oil or gasoline is cheap and effec-
tive way TO rid the patch of the vermin
if thoroughly applied. Another cheap
plan, which is said 10 give good results.
although we have never tried it. is to
fill sprinkling pot with boiling water
and literally soak the worms with it.
a successful cabbage raiser of the
writer's acquaintance insists that the
best plan to deal with worms is by de-
stroying the moths that produce them.
This he accomplished by a modified
form of the much-advertised moth trap.
AS soon as his plants are set out. he
takes small gasoline stove and sets
ii in the middle of the cabbage patch
in tub of water. He then ignites
gasoline and allows it to blaze, instead
of merely generating. The moths are
attracted to the flame. SINCE their
