ono Fruit Growor's Metbod.

A strawberry grower found that by
removing one-third OF the berries from
the vines, allowing only the best to
grow, he got one-thrd more berries
by measure, and that when sold In
market they not only paid for the la
Dor, but increased the profit. This
fact demonstrates that II farmer or
fruit grower expects to secure good
prices he must give extra labor, which
viii be more than paid fer in the crop.
The experiment made with strawber-
ries may also be made with other
fruits.

The Use OF Grease.

Many thousand chickens are de-
stroyed each year by the too profuse
use Of grease. We have seen grease
and coal oil or kerosene smeared all
over the heads and bodies of small
chicks to kill the lice. Again, we have
seen the hens feathers covered with oil
TO kill the lice, and when she covers
the chicks she paints them full of the
oil, much to their injury. How would
you feel if smeared all over with oil
and turned loose, so to run with no re-
lief for days? Oil is not fit to put on
the hen to kill the lice; it is only good
to put on the head to kill the head lice,
and very little only should be used for
this.
When you must grease their heads
use either melted lard or sweet oil.
Paint it on with either a small, stiff
brush, or your finger; only put on
enough to grease the head we'll, and no
more. If your hens are infested with
lice use insect powder on them, the
kind you buy at the drug store by the
pound. Don't use OIL on them, for 1t
is not good for them nor the chicks

A cable dispatch has reported the
death in st. Petersburg of a Nine
Kafssavoff, whose passing fame rests
on the fact that she had collected a
library Of nearly $4,000 volumes, all
written by women. No book by male
author ever had place on her shelves
1t is momentarily astonishing to
read of such a library. One feels at
! first that the collection of books must
lack variety, since so many fields Of
literature seem to have been in the
particular and almost exclusive pos
session of masculine writer's. Woman
has popularized a number Of the
sciences. Even so dry and abstract
topic as political economy has found
its able exponent in Harriet Marti-
neau. But the search for woman his
torians, biographers, mathematicians
and theologians of distinction is diff
cult.
Great women poets-Elizabeth Bar
rett Browning Jean IngelOw and the
rest-are of fair number; novelists-
| George Eliot Miss Mulock, Charlotte
eBronte, Mrs. Stowe - their name is
more than legion; in belles-lettres Lady
My Montagu, Nine. de Sevigne,
Nine de Stael and a host are ready;
Louise Muhlbach stands at the fore
of historical povelists; George Sand
leads with the novel philosophical
When the collector starts on these
lines the places fill rapidly, and the
women writer's of the present day are
! steadily creating a demand for more
shelves.
1t is a unique and must be a thor
oughly interesting library that is be-
queathed in the Russian capital. The
expressed desire will be generally
echoed that it shall not be scattered,
but shall become the undivided pos
session Of some great college of wom-
,jen.-New York World.

Feeding the Garden.

How many hungry, non-productive,
half-barren, starving gardens there are.
Gardens that are thin in soil and pro
life in weeds. Gardens that are un.
worthy of the name, because they are
not gardens in the right sense of the
word. Because they have long since
been robbed of their fertilizer, for
which they received nothing in return
but Indifferent working. Just enough
to encourage the weeds to spring up to
overcome and dwarf the vegetables.
The strength of good, productive gar
den rests in its soil; and the soil cannot
be good, continuously good, unless it
has a period of rest and recuperation,
with the addition of food that will re-
store to it the virtue and strength that
the products it has produced have
taken from it.
The wastage Of the premises may be
utilized in feeding the garden. There
are the rakings and sweepings of the
back yard, that should be scattered
over it. The fertilizer from the hen
roosts during the winter should be dis
posed of likewise, as well as manure
from the cow stable and the horse
stalls where such stock is kept The
loose trash, the old papers that are
scattered about, the dead leaves from
the trees, all of these should be piled
up in the garden and burned. Then
all the vegetable stalks, the dead weeds
and every thing else containing fertil-
ity about the premises, that is value
less, should be reduced to ashes on the
garden site If all this is not enough
to maintain its fertility, then procure
some manure from the livery stable,
or from your neighbors who keep
much stock, and scatter it over the
garden in January or February.-H. B.
Geer in the Agricultural Epitomist.

Profitable OrchnrCr,

The Maine Farmer tells of a man
In that State who raised forty-four
barrels of apples last year and sold
them for S22. This year he had TWEEN
ty-two barrels and sold them for $44.
This would be an indication that the
short crop was the most profitable,
but such instances happen only to the
skilful or careful cultivator. The other
sort had no apples to sell this year, and
thus did not do as we'll as he did last
year when the favorable season caused
even the orchards that had been neg
lected and i'll treated to produce large
crop. And this experience is not linn
tied to the orchards alone. Some have
been so careful or timed their work so
well that they have produced good
crops when the prices have ruled high,
and the element of luck is not without
its effect in farming either. A hot
and dry season may give good crops
when a man uses moist land, or a wet
season when his land is naturally dry,
get we cannot foresee the weather when
planting, and must do our best with
such land as we have, and take orr
chances Of the seasons. But the man
who takes the best care of his orchards
Is the one most sure of a crop, let the
season be what it viii, and the most
sure of having his fruit salable at a
good price, because it will be large if
he Trims it properly, and free from
worms or scab as a result Of spraying

Many farmers have their corn stand.
Ing I'm shocks In the field to be exposed
to winds, frosts, snow and rain. Pro.
eressiye farmers are learning that It Is
better to put their corn under some
kind Of shelter so as to preserve IT,
The fact that cornstalks are bulky
makes the matter Of protection and
stacking somewhat expensive, but the
cornstalks can be hauled and stacked
near the barn, as well as covered with
coarse duck or boards at less expense
than the loss In the fields The labor
Of husking the corn IN the fields Is
tedious. With a shredder the corn
is husked and the stalks reduced to a
