The Glover BURGLAR.

London News: The plain and simple
means of getting round' the finger
mark experts of Scotland Yard ha@ at
last commended itself 10 the burglar
mind. In evidence given in d case at
Windsor on Saturday it was made plain
that the Crackslnen who made a haul
Of jewelry at Lady Mary Currie's some
months ago had worn gloves all through
the operation. The panels and panes
of glass examined through the official
microscope showed no tell tale traces
Of the presence of n we'll known
practitioner, but merely a number OF
blurred marks. SO another detail is
added to the already large OUTFIT of the
modern burglar, who viii now carry his
gloves along with his list slippers, his
keys, his drills, his saws, his centerbjt
his glasscutter, his wrench, his dyna-
mite, his lantern, his revolver and sc
forth. 1t is a business that calls foi
some capital.

Feediru Poultry on the Range

Many who raise poultry seem to think
that there is no good reason h they
should not pick up their entire }iviftg dur
ing tho summer, II given plenty of range.
1t Is an exceptional ticld that viii fur
nish all the fowls require. Green food
and animal food arc about all the fowls
will get on the range SO tnat they should
be fed at least once y day. having the ra-
ton OF grain in about the same variety as
fed during the winter, but leaving out the
corn almost entirely. Look over the range
and see If Vt Is likely to provide enough
In the way OF sharp and small stones to
give the fowls the grit they need and II
not see that the grit box is placed where
they can get at 1t during Che day and have
another in the poultry house TO supply
their wants in this direction night and
morning. If It is necessary to feed some
corn do not make 1t more than onc-quar-
ter of the grain ration and give II to the
fowls In the morning before they are
aurned on the range. Don't forget water
in the summer both on the range and at
the houses, letting them nave ali the cool,
fresh water they want before they are
turned out in the morning and again at
night before they go to roost. Give the
fowls a little care along these lines and
the range will do much more good,

peetroyina CABBAGE Worms.

IF the worms appear while the plants
are very small the best thing to kill them
is white heIleborc (obtainable at any drug
st0ret, used either by dissolving one ounce
in each two gallons of water and spraying
or ~sprinkling the plants or by applying it
dry, busting it on. AS the plants get
older and larger the best rcmezy for tho
worm is the common insect powder known
as pyrcthrum, which is best applied by
mixing one pint of 1t with two quarts Of
common -four, keep it in a close box for a
day and then apply with an insect bel
lows. The louise found on cabbage Is best
destroyed by applications of tobacco wa
ter. which is made by using one pound Of
tobacco stems in four gallons of water
and adding enough hot water to make 1t
all hot. Let the mass stand until the wa
tor is cold, strain and add soft soap at the

The Season for Spraying.

The Bordeaux mixtures is recognized as
the most reliable of the mixtures user
for spraying fruit trees and pants as well
as vegetable plants and all rover are
now familiar with the formula The
causes OF failure in spraying are gener-
allv due to lack of thoroughness some
where in the work. The materials may
not be pure, the pump used may be faulty
or the spraying may not be thoroughly
done or not done at the right time, any
one of which faults makes the spraying
more or less ineffective. When poisons
are to be used 1t Is best to use them in
connection with the Bordeaux mixture.
Those who are experienced in spraying
have found that the three-eights inch
hose Is the best for use on trees; it is not
so hard work to handle it either attached
to a pole or from a ladder as the heavier
hose. In spraying see that the larger
branches OF the tree and the trunk as well
are covered thoroughly; In short, do the
work thoroughly, leaf and branch. and it
will be found that spraying pays.
Plant Foods for Fruits.

the soil must contain the three plant foods

or less Of one Of the three must be APP

Care CT Horses Necks.

SSiC Ci FtcISSo lNSCNS.
Nine out Of every ten farm horses suffer
from abrasions Of the skin on the neck
during the spring work and this is so So
we're in many cases as to keep the horse
from doing a full days work. Try this
plan of treating the farm horse during
the season of hard work. After feeding
the horse brush off all the perspiration
with Il soft brush or, better still. wipe 1T
off with n large cloth. Then, with tepid
water, sponge the head, neck and should
crs and wipe dry with a clean cloth. If
the shoulders show indications Of sore
ness rub over them a little Vaseline and
let II remain over night. See that the COL
lar worn fits we'll and after taking it off
wipe it thoroughly with a damp cloth and
hang it where it viii be thoroughly dry in
the morning. 1t will pay well to take
his little additional care of the horse dur
ing the working season If at no other time
Fruit Packages Of the Season.
Everything points TO q general adoption
of the box AS the package to be used by
OrChardistS the coming season and apples
of good quality will be packed In them to
the exclusion of barrels, especially where
a discriminating market is being catered
to. The berry basket Of the season Is
made o. naDcr and 1t is sold at q price
which greatly reduces the loss of the
grower which has been quite a sum on
this item. The crate OF paper is also
shown. but it looks too light and IS still
an experiment. y few grape baskets Of
paper are also on the market but offer the
same objection as the berry crates. A
start along the right read has been made,
however. and fruit growers will be glad to
encourage manufacturers a point which
all frui, growers should bear in mind Is
! that the city resident has little room for
! storage and hence will pay much higher
prices in proportion for good fruit in small
packages than ordinary fruit in large
packages. They will also pay more for a
dozen fresh eggs neatly packed in a clean
box than they will for the same number
more or less soiled taken from a bushel
basket. Try It and you'll see It Is SO.

Recently g ucighbor Of the writer asked
for some advice regarding the selection of

because he, the grower, dtd not fancy the

the thing to DO is to get the variety or
that fruit best suited 10 the market de-

for example. If the market pays a much
higher price for white eggs than for
brown ones we must either raise the hens
to lay the white eggs oT find a market

one Of the plant foods that must be eau
tiously handled when applied to fruit

good condition which require more thar
100 pounds OF nitrae Of soda yearly. Pot
ash, however, Is greatly needed by most
fruits and may be applied in large guam

Treating thrush in Horses

In nine cases out OF ten when thrush
occurs it is due TO the horse standing III
filth, 50 that tn" prevention of the trou-
BILE is plainly to he seen. Investigation
viii prove that the majority Of the horses
afflicted with thrush are heavily fed and
given little exercise and, as stated, stand
In filth. While there are many homes:
differences Of oninion as to what material
constitutes the best floor for a horse, i
Is certain that the floor must be kept Tca-
tonably c,can o. The animal will contract
disease or Some kind. The best treatment
for thrush is to cleanse tlc foot thorough
ly, soaking ii wei IN water as hot as the
horse viii stand if necessary end then
place Calonel in all The c~rcViccs Of III"
frog, covering II with oakum to held ii in
place. This dressing must b" changed
daily. Place the horse in a large box stall
and provide Il heavy bed uf straw so that
there Will be a sort Of cushion for the feet
at all times. While the horse is in the
stall and not fit TO exercise a great deaf
cut the ratioHs down. being careful that
the animal has sufficient variety to keep
the bowels IN good condition. As soon as
the animal can hc given @X"rcis" it should
be taken out OF doors several times a day.
| The dressing should he faithfully applied
until the discharge OF matter ceases.
