A small but very important indus
trial army is hard at work near the
corner of Broadway and Center SITS.
The army is working in two diviss
ions, and their attacks are made on
heaps of rough stone which have been
left there for preparation for their
positions in the new st. Bernard's
Catholic church, and the county Jail.
These buildings will be close together,
on Broadway. Slowly but surely the
countless clippings of stone are re-
moved from the rough blocks, and the
finished product. squared and smooth
ed. is placed in position by the rnasons,
and with each stone, the buildings
are nearer completion.
The great front which will make
the Jail an object OF beauty now oc-
cupies the attention Of one division
of the masons, and the big blocks are
being cut into shapes which make
them look very strange, by themselves,
though they will later form part Of
very harmonious whole. Under a
shed near the Broadway sidewalk,
the clinking of mallets and chisels goes
steadily on and the jail which will
later take care OF the county's bad
men, is rising from the ground slow
ly, but accurately and very surely.
Part of the form to be assumed by
the new st. Bernard's church is out
lined by lengths Of structural iron

The Late Garden.

The average farmer IS always
anxious in the spring to have an
earlier garden than his neighbors
and his efforts in this direc tion
often exhausts his garden en-
thusiasm. AS a result, late in
the season, when harvest is on,
and a good table is necessary, it
is found that the early garden
is gone and there is nothing to
take it's place. There is more
profit and more satisfaction to be
gotten out of late garden than
in an earlier one. If the matter
is attended to al the proper sea-
son. the family can have a sue
cessiop of v>gt ia bles for the Ia
BILE and. tor the marketall through
the entire season. More sugar
corn should be planted now, not
only far table use, but for can
ming and drying purposes. The
late potatoes are proba bly, Guilt
waited sufficiently in manly places,
and the space between the rows
can be utilized with other plants
without injury to the crop of
tubers. Tomatoes set out the
last of June or early in July will
come in nicely when the early
ones are gone. The lettuce beds
which have been depleted of their
crops. should be MANFRED and
eseeded, as there is no time of
the year when lettuce is not ac-
ceptahle. The same can be said
vi rAdi>hes, onions and many of
the vegetables which make their
appearance early in the season.
Cabbage, cucumbers and SO uash-
es can be planted for many weeks
yet and very good results secur-
ed.

Strawberry Enemies.

There is considera BILE com
plant among strawberry grow
ers this season OF the prevalence
of destructive insects in their
beds In number of instances
the crop has oeen ruiued. The
cut worm which does much dam
age to the corn, also feeds on the
roots of this berry, and is re-
sponsible in many cases for the
death of the plants. Another
pest is the worm Matched from
the larvae of the ordinary Nav
beetle. This insect, like the cut
worm, feeds on the roots. In
fact, all of the more important
insect enemies OF the straw berry
do their damage to the roots and
crown of the plants.
One of these, when seen on the
peach, i, called the peach twig
borer, but when seed on berry
plants is called the strawberry
root borer, When it attacks the
plant 1T bores dOwninto the crown
and from there makes it's wav
down into those roots that are
large enough to admit it's body.
When this pest attacks a plant
its fruitfulness is at an end.
There has been no remedy sug-
gested that will effectually dis
pose of them. Those plants
which are known to be infested
with them should be pulled up
and burned. The grouno where
the Strawberries are growing
should be plowed up at
the end of the fruiting season and
the patch relocated some distance
from the infested spot, so as to
be secured from healthy and 10.
sect-free sources.

this variety.
There are single berries that,
had they been lost, would keep
hundreds of farmers from pay
ing off mortgages ontheirhomes.
Take the Kansas raspberry, the

other Strawberries, and estimate
the money these plants have put
into the pockets of growers.

Taking Honey.

The one great drawback to
bees on the farm and the one that
prevents many from engaging in
the business is the fear of taking
the honey from the hive. Old
beekeepers have no fears on this
score and will work among them
for several days without being
harmed. In taking the honey
from the hives, as in handling
bees for any purpose, the opera
tor must be calm and deliberate
and not allow himself to become
excited. He should always wear
a veil and light gloves. This
veil may be made from silk tulle
and built on frame of small wire
so that it will fit the face some
what like a baseball catcher S
mask, and will give one room to
breath in. Have the veil provid-
ed with straps and buckles or
strong elastic, and be sure that
the veil is so thoroughly construc-
ted that it will protect the head,
face and neck from the attacks
Of the swarm. The exercise of
little enginuity will enable one
to make himself entirely be proof.
In approaching the hive do so
quietly from the rear. Give the
bees a good smoking, remove
the comb and retire before they
recover. In case any one should
be stung, the following prepara-
ton should be kept in readiness
to apply to the wound: Hydro
clorate cocaine, 2 drains, tincture
opium l ounce, tiucture aconite
l ounce, spirits chloroform,
ounce, spirits ammonia, l ounce.
Mix we'll, and it will be found to
stop the pam and neutralize the
poison almost Immediately.

Value of a Single Plant.

The value of a single plant is
well illustrated by the Con-

that the original Concord grape
vine was worth million dollars

the value of the product of Con-

was the foundation of an intere st

Clean Up.

The sanitary regulations of the
farm has much to do with the
health of the herd. A man who
always looks out for the cleanli-
ness OF his pens, housesandfeed-
ing places is more apt to have a
healthy herd thar the farmer
who habitually fails to observe
these precautions. The hog
quarters and and pens should be
thoroughly cleaned and the re-
fuse manure hauled into the corn
tlelc, where it do service to the
growing corn crop. Some air
siaked lime should be thrown
around the feeding troughs, and
the inside of the pens thoroughly
whltewashed. 1t will contribute
to the health of thegrow pigs.

1t IS a pleasure to pass by field

painstaking and has a very good

1t to luck. There is no telling
how much better such farmers
could do if they would attend to
the details and do the work in
season. Some them would be so
surprised at the result that they
would retire from the farm after
growing one or two crops.
