The cloth can be divided into three strips. each strip being tackled at one end to a reed, and at tho other end to 15-inch rod of wood. Stick the sides of the reel into the earth at one end of the row with wire supports at intervals along the row. and pull the cloth along over the plants, fastening the end at the lass wire sup port, as shown in the cut. Occasionally slip a wire support down over the cloth to keep the latter from blowing off the wire supports below it. Wind up the cloth on the reel when the plants To longer need cover. - Orange Judd Farmer.

PROTECTION FOR PLANTS. \ Simple System Which Wf1I Pay for Itself in the Course of
 Single Week,

Market gardeners, and even the maK- CT of kitchen garden, feel the need of some wholesale means of protecting newly set plants from the drying effects of sun or air. A cloudy day is usually taken for transplaDting, but the sun may come out with scorching heat at any moment. and much harm be done to unshaded plants. Make reel. as shown in the accompanying illustration, and . lot of wire supports. using No. IF wire. Make the reel roller and the wire sup ports about foot wide.

BERRIES FOR MARKET.
IL Pays to Raise Them, Provided the Crop Is Disposed Of fin the Right
 Way and Place.

Having been asked, by farmer sub scriber, if it will pay to grow berries for market, in reply I will say 'yes''-- if the business is managed right, and the crop disposed of in the right way and place. A good many of our towns are not properly supplied with berries; what they get. if any, are second class-the overflow or refuse from the cities, where the market is often glutted. The commission men send circulars out before the berries are ripe, giving prices of berries shipped from the south, inducing many home growers to ship. By the time their beF- ries get ripe the demand Is supplied. prices drop, and the berries being per what they will bring.
 My advice is to grow berries for local market towns that are not we'll supplied. Such places can be found in the west; land can be bought for less than half that close to large cities, pickers are cheap, and. as rule, more reliable. Berries that get too ripe on account of rain, and which will not do to ship, can be sold in the home market; all the rough handling of the railroad men, shipping expenses, commissions. etc.. are saved, also crates and boxes. Then when consumers get fresh, wholesome. home grown berries, they often get twice as many, and the growers in the local market often can regulate the price.
 It Is a mistake to plant too large an acreage. We have to pay two cents a quart for pickers; one cent for straw berries and blackberries and one and one-half to two cents for raspberries. The pickers can make good wages. have had boys and girls under 16 years old make dollar a day. I, IS years ago, sold as high as $40 worth of straw berries in day. I remember selling i've dollars worth of raspberries from one picking off one row the length of ten acres. Blackberries, 12 or more years Ago, were not profitable, as so many grew wild; but of late years, growing blackberries has become more profitable Jacob Faith, in Midland Farmer,

Servian Army's Big Drum.

A curious feature connected with tns servian army is the manner in which most of the regiments carry the big drum. It is not, as in most countries, slung in front of the man who plays t, but is placed upon two-wheeled cart drawn by a single dog, which has been SO trained that it keeps its place even through the longest and most tedious of marches. The drummer takes up po- sition behind the car and performs on the instrument as the animal pulls 1t Along

The question of suitable moorings is an I'M
portant to settle for Superintendent Wise of

berths for the three or four months that they are
In commission cost the city, in most instances,
from S400 TO $500 each, and they are difficult to
secure at those figures. Last season the Board
of Health made serious objections to some OF
the berths that had been used in former seasons
on the ground that the surroundings were not
sanitary. Finally the berths that are to be used
again this season, with the exception Of one.
were chosen Prior to last year the South
Brooklyn bath was moored at 89th-st That pier
had TO be given up, but Superintendent Wise
found that the pier at 52d-st, which was owned

used without cost. This year it was found neces-

The baths are open daily from {. to 8
D. m, and during particularly hot spells they are
kept open all night. Men and boys are accom-
modated Mondays Wednesdays and Satur-
days and women and girls Tuesdays, Thurs
days and Fridays. On Sundays the morning is
devoted to the men and boys and the afternoon
tendants are provided by the city, the former
for the mems days and the latter for the
women's days.
Charitable workers agree that these public
baths exercise q great influence for good among
the children of the streets Not only do they
promote cleanliness and health during the torrid
months, but at the same time they furnish a
harmless recreation. There is usually some one
among the women as well among the men
who is able to teach the others how to swim.

guard against is diving. which is a favorite

into commission of these places where they may
find relief from the sitting air of their homes
and the heated pavements Of the city. The
baths at Narth 1st-st, in the Eastern District
and Conover-st-, at Red Hook Point, were
thrown open Thursday. Some alterations are
necessary in connection with the baths at Dock
St, under the Brooklyn Bridge, and 5Sth-st., in
South Brooklyn, and they were not opened until
yesterday. The fifth bath, at Noble-str in
Greenpoint, will be ready. it is expected. to-
morrow.
These baths, which in reality are floating
houses with large inclosed space for bathing.
are kept in basin in South Brooklyn in winter,
as they would quickly go to pieces if exposed to
the floating ice during the stormy periods. AS
they were towed to their summer moorings last

The Bridge-st. pier. which prior to last season
had been used for a floating bath ever since the
baths had been established, was sold last year,
and considerable difficulty found in secur-
ing a new berth in that locality. The berth at
Dock-st. was finally chosen and is to be useo
again this season. In point of popularity TINS
bath ranks second in the list OF five. Inc totai
the baths were open last season reached a grand
total of 757ST2, divided as follows: Fifty
st, IO5. .2S6; North 1st-st., 248,1S Noble st.
III 442: Conover-st, 1O4, 465; Dock-st S2495
It is expected that these figures will be surpassed
this year, as the baths have been increasing In
popularity each season.

AS the pools in the baths only five feet deep,
this practice is exceedingly dangerous. Warn
diving but in the past many serious accidents
have occurred through the breaking of this rule.
Two years ago a killed by diving at
the Conover-st. bath. He struck his head
against the wooden bottom and broke his back,
dying in the hospital three days later. Last
year the attendants had orders to see that the
rule against diving was strictly observed. and to
cause the arrest of any one breaking it. This
proved effective, and no accidents were recorded
