Do Not Fail to Spray.

All fruit trees should be sprayed,
without regard 10 whether they have
been attacked by insects or disease, or
escaped, as it is less labor to prevent
attacks than to remedy an evil after
it appears 1t costs more to repair
damage than to ward off danger. In
some states, such as California, spray
ing of trees and vines is enforced by
law. If the grower negTects his duty.
he is considered as one maintaining a
nuisance, and some official is ordered
to spray the orchard and add the cost
to the tax bill of the negligent owner.

Late Setting of Strawberries.

1t is certainly best to set strawberry
plants early, yet they can be set at
almost any time during the growing
season. j. L. Herbst tells the writer
that he has known strawberry plants
to be set even when they had fruit
on them. The fruit was, of course,
picked off before the plants were put
into the ground. 1t happened to be
a wet season, and the plants grew
all right. As good success would not
probably have been attained in dry
season. 1t shows, however, what can
be done when the plants are properly
taken care of, even when the trans
planting is done out of season. We
do not advise setting out strawberry
beds in the middle of the summer, yet
there may be exceptional cases where
good plants would be available at that
season, and at no other timo.-Farm-
ers' Review.

PlinY Was Too Slow.

Here is another case where the poets
have antedated the scientists, according
to the New York Tribune. DR.. Fran
colini, of Rome, Italy, has published a
statement to the effect that the source
of the Clitumnus, a small Umbrian
river sacred to the Romans, may con-
tain radium, basing his opinion on
a description of Pliny and on passages
in the works of many writer's and po-
cts, from Virgil to Byron. The wa
tiers at the source of TIE river are
the color of violet. The natter il

Feeding Cows in Summer.

For summer feeding, while COM
plete system of soiling would be profit
able, still with the present scarcity
inefficiency and high price of labor,
most of us will pasture our COWS IN
summer. We all ought 20 prepare for
a drought by having on hand plenty
of soilng crops to supplement the
pasture For this purpose nothing Is
as cheap as corn silage, but even with
this. a succession of other soiling
crops will pay well. Rye, clover, peas
and oats, sorghum. and corn make
good uccession.-Farmers Review.

Pigskin Grated on Woman.

By using the skin of a pig two
months old the life of Mary Grant, a
colored woman of Richmond, Va, has
been saved Some weeks ago the wom-
an was fearfully burned about the body
by the explosion of a lamp. Much of
her skin was destroyed, and could not
be replaced by nature. Efforts were
made to get her relatives to supply the
necessary cuticle for grating, but they
objected. The physician in charge then
procured a young white pig, which
was chloroformed, and enough of the
necessary hide removed and grated
on the woman.

DEAR Mrs. PINKHAM: - Life looks

THE CARNEGIE DIALECT.
When he Resorts to the "Brogue''
Andrew Can Get the Best of

Though Andrew Carnegie's English IS
singularly elegant and pure, he has at
his command weird Scotch dialect, says
the Minneapolis Tribune.
Mr.. Carnegie is a student OF Scotch
words and idioms. He likes to point out
the oddities and freaks of his native
tongue. Recently, at a dinner party in
New York, he said to young woman:
SO you think you can understand Scots,
Ell? Well, then, what do we mean in
Scotland when we say a person is just
fish,"
Il don't know. What do we mean? ?"
the young woman asked.
''We mean he is bit of a weed harum-
scarum," said Mr.. Carnegie.
"A weed harum- scarum? What is
that?"
1T is the same as wowf."
"But what is wowf?"
"Wowf is nook or SAL That is to say,
a bit by the east Havers, lassie, haze We
no Scots at all!"
Then Mr.. Carnegie laughed and ex-
planned that weed harum- scarum, and
fifsh, and wowf, and nook, and sal, and
by the east all signi1ed one thing, crazy"
