COMFORT FOR THE FAMILY.
Every Farmer Should Have a Garden
in Which to Raise Vegetables
and Fruits.

1t has been asserted that the farm
er is the most backward fellow in
the world, so far as looking after his
own comfort is concerned, and that
may be stretched to include the COM
fort of his family. There is no ques-
ton that the farmer and his family
should be the best fed people in the
world, but are they? Some are and
some are not. Some have gardens,
orchards, fiocks of poultry and every
thing that can add to the comfort of
the farm home. Most do not. Yet
at the back doo- Of every farmhouse
is a nice piece of land that, with a
little care, would yield many kinds
of comfort to his family through
every month of the year. The farmer
that does not care to go into fruit
raising unless he can make it a COM
mercial operation is losing sight of
one of the chief joys of raising fruit
that of having an abundant supply for
his own table. What pleasure it is
to see the children and the women of
the household reveling in their ripe
fruit, both at picking time and at
eating time!
But the things that would make a
commercial orchard and commercial
berry patch Improbable will not mill
tate with the establishing of such for
the supply of the family. Often the
commercial fruit enterprise is a ques-
ton of markets, but with the home
orchard there is no question of mar
ket. The fruit patch, whether it in
cludes vines or trees or both, is a
source of health to the whole family,
and a delight to the younger members
of the family that they will remem-
Der in their latest days.-Farmers' Re-
view.

WEEDS ARE BAD Enemies.
To Get Rid of Them Requires Hard
Work from Beginning to End
of the Season.

A North Dakota man who thinks
weeds the worst enemy tC be met with
in the production of a garden writes
the Farm, Stock and Home that they
must be fought early, late and all the
time. The best time to kill them is be-
fore they appear above ground. If the
garden, is large a good narrow is the
best of weed killers. Corn and pota'
toes can be narrowed once weeh
from the time they are planted until
four inches high. If the garden is
small the iron hand rake and vince
hoe are indispensable. PIow all tn;

ready to plant the first early vege.

planted ground, about an inch deep.
with hoe or rake, and thus destroy the
weeds while young and tender. Il
must be remembered that the secret
of good garden is constant and care
full cultivation.
Last summer was a very trying one,
no rain falling for over 60 days, so
that most field crops were failure:
yet my garden was good one; bus
the cultivator was kept going right
along, and the weeds were kept down,
so when at last the rain did come all
vegetables made phenomenal growth.
Cabbage especially delights in constant
cultivation, the surface of the soil
should be stirred at least once a week,
and if twice a week it's all the better.
Stir it even if not a weed is in sight,
and the surface is fine and dry as
ashes. 1t is impossible to keep weeds
out of a garden here, the strong win

Transplanting in the Night.

In Nature there is a practical article
of general interest on the transplanting
of plants in full foliage in the night
written by Prof. Maumene, and gives the
result of some experiments of M. Rou-
alt. 1t is customary to transplant de-
ciduous trees in the fall or winter. Rou.
alt has found that trees may be trans
planted in full foliage in May or June
with little or no injury, provided the
PROCESS is carried on at night. This has
been demonstrated to the entire salts
faction of some of the most prcmin ent
horticulturists of France.

Evergreens as Windbreaks.

There is no other wind-break equal
TO an evergreen. Everyone will admit
that. but the number of evergreens
planted in shelter belts is exceedingly
small The popular idea that an ever
green is very hard tree to make live
is all erroneous idea, as a number of
our stock farmers who have tried it, and
know what they are talking about. will
testify. The horses, the cows, the
hogs, the sheep, and even the chickens,
cry out for wind-break, ana there is
none other so good as belt of ever.

vic diseases have no idea that their
trouble is due to catarrh. The majority
of the people think that catarrh is dis
ease confined to the head alone.
This is not true. Catarrh is liable to
attack any organ of the body; throat,
bronchial tubes. lungs, stomach, kid
neys and especially the pelvic organs.
Many a woman has made this dis
covery a ftera long siege of useless treat
ment. She has made the discovery that
her disease is catarrh, and that Peruna
can be relied upon to cure catarrh
wherever located.

TREE PLANTING IN BLOCKS.
Important Facts Clearly Established
by Recent Scientific Tests
in Horticulture.

It is not advisable to plant any ona
variety of apples, pears or plums ir
blocks, even of a hundred, unless
there are other varieties on all sides
of the block. Within comparatively
recent years it has been discovered
that many of our varieties of the
above mentioned fruit are largely in
fertile to their own pollen, some more
so than others. This kind of plant
ing has caused many a good orchard
to be infertile, without the owner even
suspecting the true cause.
1t was first found that plums re
quired to be cross-pollenized to in.

covered that the Keifer pear was a
very uncertain quantity without some
other varieties near it. The investi.
CATION was continued, with the result
that several other varieties of pears
were found to be in need Of cross
fertilization. At last the scientist.
made some elaborate experiments tt
determine to what extent the apple
came under the same laws as to pol.
lenation. To the surprise of almost
everyone, it was proved that very few
of our varieties of apples do as well
fertilized by their own pollen, as by
the pollen of another variety, anC
some of the varieties are found to bt
almost sterile when fortified by the
pollen of that variety. 1t is, there.
fore, best to so set out apple, plum
and pear trees that the pollen of one
variety may be used on another va
riety. This will greatly increase the
probability of a crop.-Farmer's Re

as the root is of nearly if not quite
uniform size the smaller or lower end
is sharpened by a slanting cut. This
end is put down in planting. A small
iron bar is generally used making the
hole, about one and half inches
deeper than the cuttings, the crown
of which should be one and half to
two inches below the surface. Guilt
vate and hoe often as soon as the rows
can be seen through. A good fertilizer
of eight to ten per cent. of potash,
seven to eight available phosphorlc
acid and four per cent. of ammonia
scattered along the rows and hoed in
at second hoeing will greatly improve
the crop. The roots are dug the first
season late in the fall, and pitted for
winter and early spring sales. The
side roots should be removed and cut
in lengths of five to six inches for
planting; this can be done in the fall
before the roots are buried for winter.
The cuttings can be tied in punches
and buried until spring. as frost does
not injure them; they may be planted
as early in spring as the ground eau
be worked. The roots are generally
washed. The cut shows small root
taken from the ground this spring, to
show how the side roots appear. These
side roots are often one to one and
half foot in length, and 1 think some
times more. If the main roots are we'll

thing like barrel of small parsnips
