SHOOTING the Old Year Out.

The practice of shooting out the
old year has obtained in this town

morning the shooters did not confne
their arm to the passing year. Some
of the more reckless Of the marks
men turned their guns upon the arc
and i~ncandescent lamps Of the electric
light plant and shot them all out with
the dead year. They also shot the
power away, too, leaving the town in
darkness and helplessness, and thus
for the space of an hour or two every.
thing was brought to a %standstill.
All this happened at an unfortunate
time for a newspaper Office; which
cannot wait on light Or power. The

obstacle which the New Year revel,
ers had put In its way by restoring to
commission that old reliable and

Rorers in Fruit Trees.

"What a be done for borers in ap-
pie and peach trees?' is often asked
and in every section. There have
been some thirty Or more remedies
tried, but non of them are absolutely
efectual. When the trunk of the
tree is wound with fine wire netting
the fly lays her eggs in the branches.
Painting the trunk does little good.
The fly usually crawls in between the
bark and grass roots where the soil
has pushed away from the tree. Hoe
ing away all the loose dirt, bark and
grass down to the hard soil does not
make it an inviting place, and she may
go on to a neighbours tree. Work
should be done in spring, IS the eggs
are laid soon after warm weather
comes. Every tree should be exam
ined carefully, and wherever the
brown sawdust shows at the surface
dig them out. Scraping the bark of
the peach tree at the proper time will
kill the newly Matched worms before
they penetrate to the inner bark. They
are very small and white, and lie close
to the outside of the bark, being only
just .covered.-New York Tribune

Pasturaue and Quality.

The breeds of cattle used for pro
ducing milk from which choice BUTTE
is made are but the agents for con
verting the different foods into the
commodity desired, and the skill ant
labor applied render the products o:
better finish in appearance, but the
quality is also Influenced by the food
and especially by the pasturage. Pas
lures differ greatly, some varieties oi
grasses being better adapted to e
tain locations than others, and, as the
animals also differ individually, the
made where there is the greatest uni
formity of pasture, breeds and meth
DDS of manipulation. Land being
cheaper in America than in England
our farmers rely principally upon nat
ural pasturage, probably induced by
the better adaptability of the grasses
to the soil, and their greater hardness
under favorable conditions; but the
European farmer gives his attention tc
the cultivation of the pasture, using
manures and fertilizers, and selecting
those varieties Of grasses that assist
in adding quality to the product. There
is a certain effect impaired to milk
butter, cheese and meat by the sweet
heritage of certain sections, and, there
fore, the European pastures are more
varied, combining not only the most
nutritious grasses, but also those that

Many years ago attention was callej
to the fact that the Parmesan and
other Italian cheeses, which are widely
known, derive their excellent quality
from the grasses upon which the ami,
mails feed, and that the famous Cor
gonzola cheese is due to the sweet
heritage of the region in which it is
manufactured, which fact is cited tc
show that the flavor and v of the
food permeates the flesh, the fat and
the milk, affecting the quality more
than the skill and care given. There
are seasons, however, when the pas.
ture is useless. and when the sever
winters demand other methods Of

Cash Holdings Of Russell Sage Must

It Is q common saying that Russell
Sage owns more ready cash than any
other man in America Few people
know the reason. Conservative bank
ers estimate that he has loaned out on
collateral at most time cash to the
extent Of $25, 0o0, 900, while in times
when rates are tempting he adds from
100000 to 100000 to this inter
est-drawing principle. His income on
this alone amounts to over $1,260,OO0
per annum. His income from gilt.
edged investments is at least as great.
His one luxury Is a team OF fast
horses. He pays $4,000 ground rent
for the real estate on which his Fifth
avenue house is built, and his annual
expenses outside Of that amount TO
about $4,000. 1t will readily be seen
that he is not likely to die poor. Few
banks have more actual cash outstand'
ing than has Russell Sage. His total
fortune Is put at $4,000, 00o.

How to SET q Hen.


AS the season is now approaching
when we will begin to set hens, it may
not be amiss to give a few ways Of
handling them. A room apart from
the flock should be arranged, where
the hens will not be disturbed. It
should be large and dry, and some
what dark, with just a ray of sunlight
from a window.
Any number may be set in the same
room by arranging the nests side by
side around the edge of the floor. We
have seen two dozen faithfully per-
forming their task in a large room 40
by so feet-the feed box, water pot
and dust box occupying the centre Of
room.
The best box should be SO construct
ed that when a hen is brought from
the laying house and put in 1t she can
be confined for a day. Otherwise she
may possibly desert it in an effort to
return to her usual place.
Make the nests of clean straw or
hay, and put a few china eggs under
the hens until they have become en-
tirely reconci1ed to the change and
have learned to leave the nest for
food.
When they SOW that they intend to
sit faithfully, put the eggs under them,
not too many; dust them with insect
powder and leave them quietly alone.
IL possible set two or more at the
same, so that the broods of two can
be given to one hen, and the other hen
be rest or returned to the yard with
the layers.
Watch them closely for a few days,
after which only an occasional trip to
~replenish the supply of food and wat
en- and to clean up the floor will be re-
quired.
About the eighteenth day dust them
again with insect powder, after which
they will need no further care until
the chicks begin to hatch-and then
only to see that the shells r removed
from the nest. This should be care
fully done by reaching under the hen

to disturb her.

Root Grating.

The first requisite to a good, thrifty
tree is a good, healthy stock. Be sure
the stock is free from scab or aphis
After washing and trimming, cut in
pieces from five to seven inches long.
The scion should not be more than
four inches in length, after the scion
and stock are put together. The
gratis should be carefully wrapped
and tied in punches Of so and packed
in sand and placed where they will not
freeze. In early spring they should be
set so the root is completely hid be-
meath the surface. If the ground is
well pressed around each graft and
setting is done as early as the land
can be worked, the loss will not be
more than 10 percent.
Cultivate well with hoe and shallow
blowing until the first OF August, at
which time cultivation should cease in
order to let the wood harden for win.

I prefer transplanting at n year old.
If this cannot be done let them stand
in the nursery rows until they are two
years, as they will Withstand more
hardships and the rough handling that
most buyers give their young trees.
In setting at one year old you get all
the roots in perfect condition, which
goes a long way in helping a tree to
live through the first summer.
am often asked if there is any ad.
vantage in a whole root grated tree.
This question is asked from the fact
that the country is flooded with agents
who not only sell their goods at a high
price, but assert that the longevity OF
the whole root tree is twice that Of the
piece root. To answer this question
SO that the masses Of the people may
understand, is a little tedious, l admit,
but it can be answered in favor of the
piece root system, prices considered.
1t is argued by the whole root adVo'
Gates that a tree must have a tap root
and that this tap root must not be cut

without this misfortune? AS a rule
trees are dug by horse power, both
the whole and the piece root, and each
shares alike the same fate, that of the
roots being cut more or less by the
digger. This being true, each tres
comes up in the same condition, and
no one but a practical nurserymar
would be able to tell one from the
other. They go to the farmer and
each has to callus before much greWtf
is acquired.
If there is anything to be gained by
the whole root system, it is to plant
