where these drawbacks exist the man
who neglects spraying is the one who

more trees are planted throughout the
country, the diseases become more
and more numerous, and something
must be done to check them. The man
who wants fruit cannot afford to neg

who plants trees wants fruit. The

device IS a trap constructed about on
the same principle as the eel pot. The

woven that the terrapins easily enter,
but find Il impossible TO get out. The
trap is then filed with bait. for the

hunter states that he has seen twenty.
two drowned in this manner during
the present summer. A terrapin can
not live In one OF these traps over
three hours, and thus the hunter must
be on the move constantly If he would
preserve his game alive. Terrapins
are also being caught in purse nets,
but these cannot be used in shallow
streams successfully on account of
the numerous stumps of trees on the
bottom. One hunter made a large
haul with a fyke some weeks ago. He
saw a large number Of terrapin going
up asnarrow marsh stream and knew
that 1t was useless to follow them at
once on account Of the numerous deep
holes which rendered the ter.apin
practically safe from pursuit He
therefore stopped up the stream with
the exception of one narrow outlet, in
which he PLACED his fyke. Night after
night he waited patiently for the ter
rapin to come down. At length one
night there came q heavy rain, and
the terrapin came down with a rush,
so that he caught more of them then
he had caught at one time for many
years.-Baltimore Sun.

ROSE CUTTINGS.

Rose cuttings can be rooted at any
time when the wood is in proper con-
dition. Florists generally use one eye
cuttings. che wood is in condition
when the flower buds appears on the
shoot The joints are cut about one
quarter of an inch above the eye, snd
the stem on each cutting left about
one inch and a half long The leaf is
shortened somewhat and the cutting
put in sand upon sharp bottom heat
until the roots appear, when it is at
once ported off in thumb pots An
other way is to make cuttings with
three or four eyes just after the wood
is ripened enough to show the deveI-
opment Of the buds at the aXil of the
leaf. Such cuttings can be made any
time from October to January and
placed in cold frames, planting in
same way as cabbage or cauliiower
plants that are vintered over, and
subjecting them to the same winter
treatment of airing, yet keeping them
as free from severe freezing as can
be done during the winter Rose cut
tings placed in such frames about The
end of October will be rooted and
fit to pot in March. People not hay-
ing the convenience Of frames may do
it equally well.-Frank Sweet, in The

FRENCH METHOD OLE DRAINAGE

FRENCH METHOD OF DRAINAGE.
How to make a durable and cheap
drain for the garden or orchard is an
important matter with those who Go
not desire open bitches. The French
have a method which may be valuable
to some. A trench is dug and the bot
tom filed with cement mortar. On
this is placed a rubber tube covered
with canvas and inflated. The trench
is then filed with cement AS soon
as the cement sets air is let out and
the rubber tube which is then re-
moved and used in another location
or section. BY this method it is esti-
mated that siX-inch pipes can be made
at a cost OF not over eight cents per
foot.

HOW TO HAVE LARGE PUMPKINS

If you desire to utilize the entire
strength of a pumpkin vine in the pro-
duction Of only one Or two fruits, then
thinning out will be necessary. Wait
until there are three or five pumpkins
On the vine, then thin out leaving the
most promising. To check the growth
of the vine and concentrate its
strength, pinch off the end of the
main vine four to six feet beyond the
pumpkin. Side shoots may be treated
the same, only they need not be per-
mitted to grow any considerable length
unless they are to produce fruit. AS
great size is your only object, it will
be best to allow only one pumpkin
on a vine and only one plant to a
hill, and after the fruit is set and as
large as 4 mans head, mulch the hill
with coarse manure or old hay and
give water in liberal quantities in dry
Weather.-S. r. Cook.
