THE CORONATION.

London, July 23.-Fears are now
expressed that the coronation will be
so shiny attended hat it will almost
approach a tiZZle. One-fifth of the
members of the House of Commons
who applied for tickets and many
peers are scattered over the country
at the various summer resorts and do
not want to return. The Duke of Nor
folk has been obliged to write per-
sonal letters in order to get enough
persons of note present to make a de-
cen showing. There also will be O
total absence of special embassies as
Whitelaw Reid, last of these special
ambassadors, will leave a week before
the ceremony occurs, o having re-
ceived an invitation to remain. The
Duke of Norfolk may invite outsiders
in order that the abbey may be filled.
Only by having the ceremony before
the grouse shooting season opens, Au-
gust II, will it be possible get half of
the original audience.
London, July 23.-The weather was
less wintry at Cowes this morning,
and the reports from the royal yacht
Victoria and Albert continue to
chronicle King Edwards improve
ment.
The King will hold his first council
since A. j. Balfour became premier,
on board the yacht, in a few days. 1t
is expected that. the name of the new
lord lieutenant Of Ireland, TO succeed
Earl Cadogan, will then be announced.
London, July 23. High court otfic-
ials who have seen the King many
times since the operation was perform
ed today give the Publishers Press
representative the following careful
statement THE reason for having
the coronation so soon is a grave me-,
as the Kings physicians think he new
er will be 81 we'll again. The opera
ton, which vas far more serious and
complicated than any one was led to
believe, revealed diseased conditions
involving a large portion of the intesti-
nal cavity. The operation removed
the immediate danger and gave chance
for a rally, but conditions are still
such that a second operation is only a
question of time. This will probably
be performed in the fall. OF the
Kings chances of recovery from this
operation the doctors are unwilling to
predict

LET THE GIRLS STICK TO THE
FARM.

Farmers daughters who leave COM
Portable homes to seek uncertain en-
ployment in town often make a mis-
take. There are few cases where the
same amount of energy and industry
expended at home would not bring
equal returns, besides the comforts
and safeguards that are retained.
Most girls could obtain the use of
an acre or two of land, and on this
they might produce something profit
Fable, Eggs guaranteed strictly fresh,
pure honey, fat squads, plump and
tender c~hickens-all of these are de-
sired by city people, and many of
them are willing to pay a good price
for articles that are always kept up to
the mark in quality. The raising of
these may mean some hard work, but
not so hard or combining as standing
all day behind a counter or sitting
at a sewing machine or typewriter.
A New Jersey woman some years
ago planted ~one-fourth of an acre of
Tom Thumb cucumbers, tended them
with care, and picked them according
t o an old family recipe. She sold
them first by a retail grocer, but when
they became known she was able to
sell them to the best wholesale trade,
and makes a tidy sum. The Farm

FOR POULTRY KEEPERS.

Cleanliness is an enemy of disease.
Keep the water-vessels in the shade.
Filthy drinking vessels introduce
disease.
Better have the poultry hungry than
overfed.

Fowls soon become accustomed to
regular hours of feeding.
If you are feeding green cut bone in
summer be sure that the meat is
not tainted.
The garden affords green stuff that
is needed and will be relished by the
shut-in fowls.

provide suitable shade for his fowls

their yards when the thermometer
registers from ninety-five degrees tc

c~aretakers will not only give q less
quantity of milk and be injured for
future productiveness, but the quality
of the milk itself and the products
resulting from it are likewise injured

proven by repeated tests for butter

Another source of loss often to be
observed among careless dairymen is
the allowing of exposure to sever

MILK AND MILK.

Thousands of dairymen are con-
stsntly studying and experimenting
with the problem of increasing the
milk product from their herds by
means of changes and combinations
of feed r%ations, that they may get the
greatest value in dairy products at the
least outlay of expense. There is no
small proportion of these careful and
~up-to-date feeders, however, who
largely overlook another quite as i'm

ROADSIDES IN JULY.

Following the old pasture road away
from the dust of the highways, little
side excursions may result in any
number of finds of wild flowers, says
Country Life in America. There are
the pearly everlasting and its close
cousin, the clammy everlasting, the
bright yellow tansy escaped from
some garden, the wild %teasel, the
common bright-hued pink knotweed,
or p~ersicaria, the burr or spear thistle
and its two near relatives, the Cana
da and pasture or fragrant thistles,
the acrid Indian or wild tobacco. the
sensitive pea, the common burdock,
the chicory which so often passes
muster in your morning cup, and the
whorled or green-howered milkweed.
Where the ground is a bit rocky look
for the stiff or savory .leaved aster
and the upland white aster. Dry open

DRAWING THE LINE.

In the section of which l write it is
time for many n farmer to draw the
line between his profitable and un-
profitable land. Where fields are unfit
for the plow, and cannot be made to
keep a sod of grass, a crop of the
right kind of trees should be started,
either by some planting of seeds or
usually only by some cutting out of
undesirable kinds. An effort should
be made to subdue thoroughly the
land that a be kept in grass, either
by such stock as sheep and goats, or
on small farms by the soythe and hoe.
The intractable land should have its
desirable underground protected by
keeping stock off it and by cutting
out the less desirable varieties of
young stuff. The half way course
means little feed, less soil and small
income, with constant decrease in the
valuation of the farm. Concentration
of effort on the fields really fitted for
tillage and permanent pasture and
some attention to tree growing on the
land would probably add to the value
of ones investment. The sooner a
considerable percentage of the very
broken lands of our eastern states is
resigned to the production of timber,
the better it will be for our owners
who now see the soil on steep hillsides
washed away by dashing rains -

AGRICULTURAL.
POTATOES ARE BLIGHTIG.

The late blight or rust" has APP
mont experiment station, Burlington.
This date, July 10, is the earliest rec
ord of its appearance there for the
past thirteen years during which it
has been a matter of critical study by
the station officers. They consider
that the chances favor even more Sc
rious development Of the disease than
last year-and possibly, if weather
favors, the worst scourge of the last
decade. The reasons for this fear are
threefold First, this remarkably
early beginning of the blight-which
means that whatever the weathercon-
ditions it will spread insidiously from
this time on second, the large amount
of rot occurring last autumn means
that the germs of the disease, which
are carried in the seed potatoes, are
present in most potato fields third,
the weather conditions so far this
season have prepared the crop for seri-
Gus blighting since planting was de-
layed unusually late and the growth
made by the plants recently has been
very rank.
The rapid spread of blight depends
upon weather conditins. If the rest
of the season should be continuously
dry there might be little trouble from
it. The chances are, however, that
there will be an unusual development
of the disease.
Pieces promise to be high again
this autumn and it is recommended
by the Experiment station officers
that spraying with bordeaux mixture,
to preserve the plants from blight, be
made earlier and more thoroughly
then usual. Their specific recommend
ations are as follows;
Spray early potatoes as early as pos
first of August. Probably it will be
profitable in either case to spray q
second time about two weeks after the
first application is made. Thorough
spraying requires lIOlu wv W Apul
barrels Of the mixture to the acre.
Most people do not use enough. There
is no danger of injuring the vine:
from an overdose providing the mix
ture is properly made.
The mixture consists of l pound
of stone lime, IL pounds blue vitrio
"copper" s%ulphate), 10 gallons of water
q lbs. lime, G lbs. %vitriol, l barre
water. Shake the lime and dissolve
the vitrol in separate vessels and mi,
just before using, Add paris green

not a cure, and must be applied be
