Handsome Plants OF Easy Culture.
Care of Tubers.
Several new hybrid yellow lowering
eichardias. popularity known as calais.
have recently been put in commerce.
They have all been produced by inter-
crossing species native to South Africa
and are handsome decorative plants,
especially suitable for subtropical gar
den effects. While some of the species
are not overyigorous and generally
need glass protection, the hybrids are
of the easiest culture in the open. The
large tubers winter perfectly if kept
warm and dry, and may be planted out
any time after the ground warns up in
spring. They grow well in any sunny
situation, but are most effective in beds
or borders of deeply dug, well enriched
and If possible moist soil, such as the
elephants ear, colocasia, delights in,
and make a particularly satisfactory
appearance in groups of five to seven
plants spaced about ten inches apart
Blooms are produced from July to
August When the foliage begins to
yellow in September the tubers should
carefully be lifted, cured in shade and
stored like potatoes in a dry, frost free
cellar or other suitable place. Rural

Lear Pruning Of the Grape.

In order to allow the sun to pene-
tlate to and aid the ripening of late
grapes it is often advisable late in
the season to lessen the leafy shade of
the vine. l. H. Bailey recommends
that this should be done by removing
the leaves from the center of the vines.
and not by cutting away the canes.
III this way only those leaves are re-
moved which are injurious. and as
much leaf surface as possible is left
to perform the autumn duty Of laying
up food material for the spring. The
removal of leaves should not be ex-
cessiye, and il considerable. should be
gradual, otherwise there is danger of
sunburn 1t is best. first. to remove
the leaves from below the fruit. This
allows free circulation of the air and
penetration of the suns rays. which
warm Tie soil and are reflected upon
the fruit This is generally sufficient,
and in any case only the leaves in the
center of the vine. and especially those
which are beginning to turn yellow,
should be removed.

Trouble In Timothy meadows.

An insect commonly known as the
bill bug breeds in the dubious root Of
timothy grass in meadows of long
standing, sometimes in sufficient num-
bers to kill out the larger portion Of It.
The pest develops in the fall and re-
mains in the field over winter to begin
operations as usual the following
spring. Now, if the infested field were
to be 'plowed late in summer or early
in fall the insect would probably aban-
don it, or if not then certainly in the
spring, as it could neither feed nor
breed there, but if, as is frequently
the case, blowing is left until spring
and corn is planted soon afterward, the
insects transfer their attention to the
corn, frequently killing the plants out
right and in other cases causing what
is generally known as "franching.''

HOLIDAYS IN MEXICO.
They Are Numerous, but Are Not All
Local Celebrations.

The visitor in Mexico is apt to be
surprised at the number of holidays
celebrated here and made the occasion
of rejoicing, with accompanying music
and decoration. and is likely to think
that the Mexican does nothing but
celebrate.
With his religious and national feast
days, the Mexican does have many
Holidays of more or less general i'm
Dortance. and when he is not celebrat-
ing these he may be celebrating the
day of his patron saint or of that of
rome member Of his family, so that it
seems to require little inducement for
him to celebrate. If member of the
family goes out of town for a few
days or weeks, his return is celebrat-
ed in some mild way and his welcome
home made pleasant.
But not all of the celebrations which
take place in the capital are Mexican,
as the foreign colonies contribute their
share of feast days. The Americans
celebrate their day of independence on
the glorious Fourth of July, and ten
Gays later Inc ff0Hcu CtleUIdtC Tic
fall of the Bastille, and so it goes, the
British celebrating the birthday of
their king, the Italians the entry into
Rome of the troops Of united Italy, the
Germans the birthday of the kaiser,
the Swiss the day of the formation OF
the confederation The Spanish cele-
brate the birthday of their king. and
in September their feast Of Corvodon-
ga is important enough to last three
days. No doubt there are other cele-
brations not so public or prominent,
such as the Chinese New Year and
others. but the above goes to show
that not all the feasting in the capital
is done by natives. An interesting
point, however is that foreigners who
come to Mexico are soon the keenest
for the coming of the various holidays,
and Mexican. religious or their own,
are jealousy demanded as leisure days
from all houses of business or COM

L.
boarding the two rows together and
saving one-half the boards that are
generally used when it is boarded in
single rows.
The boards, which are from sixteen
to eighteen inches wide, are kept well
apart by driving stakes on either side,
also by placing notched boards over
the top, as shown in Fig. l, until the
plants have grown few inches above
them, when the boards are crowded
together, thus making dark place
for the celery to blanch in.
The principle of blanching is grow
ing in the dark. The boards must be
kept well apart, for if the wet leaves
of celery are not sufficiently exposed
to the sun to dry them they will rot
and the plant will cease to grow. 1t
will continue to grow while leaves are
exposed to sun and air. After board
ing up, celery begins to blanch, and
when Boards are crowded close togeth-
err at the top Gig. p the blanching is
completed in few days. Celery will
not keep long after it is blanched;
therefore board up little at time.
Some of the Golden Self Branching
can he put in the cellar without blanch-
ing for fall use.
After the celery is boarded up place
a mulch of manure in the eighteen inch
space ana keep irrigated, if possible,
until the celery is ready to use. Mulch
ing not only retains moisture, but
keeps the ground from baking, and the
water running through the manure dis
solves portions of it, which in the wa
Ter are carried to the roots of the
plants in a form that is available
for food. Celery sometimes becomes
stringy or has hollow stalks because
of growing too slowly or lack of pot
ash or phosphoric acid. &
Winter celery is not boarded up.
Cultivate until plants are six or eight
inches high, then mulch between rows,
and plants will not need any more care
except to be irrigated during dry
weather. In time to escape hard frost
or freezing, the plants should be taken
I'D with d spade fork, leaving as much
dirt as possible on the roots, and packed
in the cellar on the cellar bottom.
Place the first row next to the wall.

Emit Refrigeration.

Eastern grown pears for export are
refrigerated in cold storage ware
houses alongside the railroad before
shipping. The pears are generally
cooled after packing. as cold fruit con-
denses the moisture Of the air and be-
comes wet If packed in warm room.
Sometimes the fruit is refrigerated 10
open headed barrels or in picking box

Great Corn And Potato Contest.

In aid Of the monument fund,
q fancy fair has been proposed,
to take place in early Novem-
Der. Any article Of fancy work
Tor home u%se-for wear-or for
table purposes, will be respect
fully solicited from the women
OF the county. They will have
ample time to prepare for this
occasion, which we hope to
make the largest of the kind
ever held in the town.
We wish to make the agri
cultural feature o special attrac
ton of this fair. TO do this we
will need the aid and co-opera-
ton Of all the farmers in the
county. We therefore propose
to offer a prize Of $40, ii there
are as many as one hundred
competitors, for the best one
hundred ears Of corn produced
in the county.
A prize Of IS, for the best one
hundred sweet potatoes raised
in the caunty il there are as
many as one hundred compel
titors. No questions as to acre
age, fertilizers or process of cul-
tivation will be required. We
simply ask for the ears Of corn
and the potatoes. The condi-
tons imposed are, that all corn,
and potatoes offered in compe.
tltion for the prizes are to be-
come the property Of the fair
committee, to be sold with all
the other articles for the benefit
OF the monument fund. While
we think it commendable to en-,
courage the growing Of fine
corn and potatoes, it will be
readily seen, that we are offer
ing the prizes to secure the corn
and potatoes for sale, and we
want a lot Of it. Let every
farmer in the county grow one
hundred ears Of corn and one
hundred potatoes for this CON
test, and it will greatly in
crease our funds, and prove an
attraction at our fair.
We also offer two dollars for
the finest single flower Of chry,
santhemum, and two dollars for
the finest specimen Of blooming
chrysanthemum, pot plant.
We hope that our women
will give close attention to the
cultivation of this beautiful
flower, and make our chrysan-
themum show as good as the
best.
We urgently request all the
friends Of the monument to
kindly assist in this undertake
ing. 10 each individual it will
mean but little, but in the az
gregate a great deal.
