IN THE GARDENS.
Timely and Practical Hints For the
vegetable Growers.

Timely and Practical Hints FOR tno
Vegetable Growers.
Celery.-Now is tie time to apply
fertilizer ON each side Of the rows and
draw an inch or so OF earth over It
with the hoe. This applies to early
and late paintings. If celery is wanted
for exhibiting in the early part OF Sep
tember, 1t will want all the pushing
along it can possibly get.
Endive will require plenty Of atten-
ton in transplanting and watering.
Lettuce will need close attention too.
Seed can yet be sown in the open in
this section, although we are getting
close to our time limit. Sow a little
of forcing kinds In frames or outside
and transplant to frames. Such kinds
as Belmont Forcing and Glasshouse
answer well.
Parsley.-Where an early supply In
spring is required seed should be sown
now in frames and wintered over.
Tomatoes.-Give prompt attention to
them now in thinning out growth and
tying In. Some of the large lower
leaves may be removed to let in light
and sun.
Onions-Where they are ripe and tit
for pulling no time should be lost. l
notice If left in the ground but a short
time after they are ripe and a shower
comes they quickly make new root
again, which is evidently detrimental
to their keeping qualities. When once
pulled, keep as dry as possible and
thoroughly ripen them II required for
late keeping.
Seed Of Tripoli varieties, such as
Giant Rocca, can be sown In frames
now and wintered over if large bulbs
are wanted for special purposes next
season.
Turnips-It is now about the last
call In many sections for the last SOW
ing Of white turnips.
Splnach.-A sowing Of the broad
leaved kinds may be made now for
fall use.-E. P. Meredith, Massachu-
setts, in American Gardening.

A Unioue Home.

In Sweden and Norway there are
several homes for spinsters. One of
these at least is as attractive as 1t is
unique. 1t is a monument to the mem-
ory Of an exceedingly wealthy old
man. who, dying more than 200 years
ago, left the major part of his fortune
to the old maids among his descend
ants. A superb home was built. fur
nished and managed by salaried trus-
tees. 1T flourished and has continued.
Any unmarried woman who can prove
blood relationship to the founder of
the institution is entitled to admission
to the home. She is given suit Of
rooms. servant. private meals and is
subject to no rules save such rs ordi-
nary good behavior demands.

A Lucky Escape.

An elephant hunt on the Muar river
is described in the Straits Times Of
Singapore. The beast turned hunter,
and the man, fleeing. caught his foot in
a rattan creeper and fell. He dis
charged his rifle, however, and that
fortunately frightened the animal
away. The Times continues: 1T is
not every man who has the good luck
when pursued by an elephant to be
crossing a swamp, so that when the
animal has carefully kneaded his pros
trate foe and passed along thinking
him completely pulverized the said
man should come up smiling behind
the elephant none the worse for his
massage treatment. This actually hap
pened to a well known man in the
Straits Settlements"

Get After the Borers.

In August we get after the borers in
the orchard. We find them by the
wood dust around the stem Of the tree.
We go after them with sharp knife
and a smah wire. II we do not get the
job done in August, we do it in Sep
tember, says Farm Journal.

PIums In Cold storage.

Plums differ much in their behavior
In cold storage. Robinson and Weay-
er, very juicy varieties, were kept
from three to four weeks. With such
varieties decay proceeds very rapidly
when once it has begun. Less watery
sorts, as Golden Beauty and Moreman,
were kept in the Kansas station cool
ing room, which had an irregular tenn
perature averaging about 80 degrees
F., for more than a month. Weizerka,
n meaty, prunelike variety, kept for a
still longer time.

Doubling the Nitrogen In Grass.

Doubling the Nitrogen In Grass.
Experiments at the Storrs station for
increasing protein show that by the
use Of nitrogenous fertilizers one can
not only get an increase in quantity.
but an increase in the proportion Of
nitrogen in grasses, wheat, oats and
corn. This is very important to dairy
men and helps to solve the problem Of
now to produce the protein which they
need. The use Of 250 to 300 pounds
nitrate Of soda per acre on grass land
has been found to almost double the
amount of nitrogen in the plant

POULTRY POINTS.

stray Dits of Experience In Feeding
From Various Experimenters.
A test of wheat versus corn gave re-
suits in favor of wheat for egg produc-
ton. In the case Of Leghorn pullets
the addition of dried blood to the ra-
ton considerably increased the egg
yield, With Plymouth Rock pullets
no effect was noticed on the yearly egg
record. With both breeds the lots re-
cefying dried blood began laying ear
lier than those to which It was not fed.
An unlimited supply of sweet skim
milk can apparently be given to chick
ems with advantage, but sour milk
mus be fed with caution.
1t is very important that the dishes
from which milk is fed should be
cleaned often and scalded occasionally.
Close confinement and lack Of varie-
ty of food, especially such as Is rich
In nitrogen, are conditions likely to
bring on feather eating.
No advantage was derived in using
hot water for moistening food for
chicks.
In comparative trial Of animal meal
and fresh bone the better results were
obtained by the use Of bone. In two
following tests the result was exactly
reversed.
Wild onions impaired odor to the
eggs.
Skimmilk Is especially valuable for
young chicks in hot, dry weather.
By the comparison Of a nitrogenous
and a carbonaceous ration for laying
hens 1t was found that the fowls were
heavier and the eggs more fertile by
the use OF the nitrogenous and, al
though this cost more, 1t resulted the
more profltably.
Dried blood used with grain and
green food gave better results than
either OK liver or green cut bone.
Finely ground grain gave better re-
suits than coarse cracked grain for
young chicks.
A highly nttrogenous ration during
the summer or molting season is rec
commended.

A brake shoe on one of the elevated trains may be depended upon to last a distance of 3000O miles. Owing to the frequent stopping of trains, this is 10,- 900 miles less than the shoe would live attached to a passenger train on one of the big continental railroads, In sandy countries, where sand gets between the shoes and the wheel tires, shoe will not last more than 25.000 miles.
 The ferry companies running in and out of Manhattan to Brooklyn and New Jersey have tales of hardship on materials to tell A ferryboat which comes out brand new must expect with in about nine months to begin replank- ing it's wagon way, Not all the plank ing will be worn out then, but from then on patching will have to begin un- til at the end of another nine months a new covering for the driveway will have to be. put in.
 Tho lines of spilea at ferry slips, known as guides, give frequent trouble by wearing out unexpectedly At the Jersey City end of the Pennsyl vania railroad ferry guides have been in place for five years and apparently are as good as ever. At the Cortlandt street end, however, where there is but seven feet of mud before solid rock is reached, the guides must be repaired every six or eight months. and at that every once in while ferryboat comes in and knocks them galley west.
