STORING CELERY.
Suggestions by Prof. w. r. Beattie of
U. S. Department of Agriculture.

Almost without exception the larger
northern growers have found it I'm.
profitable to store celery for late
keeping, and those who still adhere
to the practice do so in order that
they may control and supply spe.
cial trade. Even under special cir.
cumstances there. is only a moderate
nrofit in storing for late marketing.
The best form of storage house is
broad and long structure with low
,ide walls and roof coming almost
% the ground at the caves The walls
should be constructed of concrete or
brick and the roof made very tight
to keep out frost The roof portion
should also be ceiled to form a double
construction with air space between
Large doors should be provided at
both ends, and If so arranged that a
team of horses can be driven through
the work of unloading the celery will
be greatly facilitated.
The earth floor of the storage house
should have a covering consisting OF
four or FIVE inches Of loose soil, In
which to pack the roots of the celery
1t is desirable to have the storehouse
divided lengthwise into beds six OF
eight feet wide by six inch boards on
edge, raised three or four inches from
the soil and fastened to stakes. These
lines of raised boards assist in holding
the celery in an upright position and
increase the circulation of air
through It.

I Then Barnes and his party drive on
again and the Americans eyes rest ap-
pealingly ON his beautiful fiancee as
she sits opposite to him. but hers do
not answer the, tenderness of his

say: You had your golden oppor-
tunity, laggard. 1t will be a long time

Meantime they are approaching the
Mediterranean. The equipages grow
less numerous upon the avenue which
they had filed out half an hour ago.
DO you think it is too early to put
the girls on the yacht YETI" whispers
Edwin.
Yes, not dark enough" and Barnes
directs the coachman to take the mar
rover drive called the Mazargues and
go past the race course, reaching the
| Cornicse road.
AL the time the two horsemen jog
ON behind them at a discreet distance.
The sea breeze fresnens, the night
deepens and they reach the Corniche
road that skirts the sea. All other
equipages have left 1t. Here Barnes
changes their course and they return
in the direction of the city towards the
Roucas Blanc.

HOME REMEDY FOR A COLD.
A Good, Common Sense Treatment
Anybody Can Easily Apply.

The best time to doctor q cold "a

colds--so when you start to cure your
cold a0arm up.
Battle the feet in hot water-take
hot drinks Of lemonade or composition
tea--take good laxative quinine tab
let and go to bed and sweat. The most
important treatment in doctoring q
cold or sore throat is a good applica-
ton on the lungs to avoid any chance
of pneumonia. People used to apply
complicated oil, goose grease, ETC., but
the finest thing for this purpose il
Hoff's German Liniment. This is q

Ing, yet perfectly clean and does not
soil clothing or bedding. Il Ia q
simple household remedy, is sold
everywhere for twenty-five cents. Be
sure to rub 1t in well and Ii throat
Is sore use as a gargle. The above
treatment is inexpensive-in fact
costs a good deal less than a good
tombstone-and a neglected cold

1ARRELING APPLES.
System Is the Secret Of Successful
Marketing Of Crops.

A good barrel Is essential If you
wish to store your fruit, have 1t keep
well and sell well. A tight barrel Is
the best, and the better it is made the
better results you will have. There
will be smaller loss from shrinkage of
'ruit. from rats and mice and other
:auses
In my orchard, writes correspond
snt of Orange Judd Farmer, / have
eight pickers and six sorters and bar
refers in each gang. A strong sort
ing table, constructed of light, strong
material is provided. This table Is
set in the center of 16 trees. Some
times, if fruit is scarce and trees are
small. in the center of "a or 81 trees.
Four or six rows are carried forward
at once and the table is moved along
he center rows and set in the middle
Of the square at each move.
One man usually nails the hoops,
the headliners, and takes out the
heads of the barrels, preparing them
for filing. 1t is quite important to
have headliners, as it prevents loss
in shipping and facilitates in the ex-
animation and inspection of fruit in
storage. This man usually heads up
the barrels when filed.
A second man does the facing, and
a third, who should be a good apple
man and foreman of the gang, emp
ties the baskets and assists in the
"orting. He inspeets the fruit as
sorted and directs the work. This
caves three men who do nothing but
stand at the table and sort. If the
fickers are not able to keep the table
supplied, man from the table is put
INTO the trees to pick.

Martins, Revenue.

A correspondent tells the story Of
two house martins nests built against
an attic window of farm. to which
the birds came for several successive
years. Last spring, however. before
they arrived, a sparrow took np hes
abode in one of the nests.
Shortly after the martins returned
as usual, and one day the farm people
noticed that the hole Of the nest
which the sparrow occupied had been
blocked up. Next morning boy
climbed up to ascertain the meaning
of this, and not finding any outlet
broke away part of the nest. to find
the poor little sparrow dead on hen
eggs.

FLOWING THE ORCHARD.
Discussion Of Subject BY w. Paddock
OF Delaware Experiment Station.

That clean cultivation OF orchards
| has been the rule In Colorado has al
ready been referred to In publications
from the Colorado agricultural COL
lege. But the system of culture has
not general included the use of the
turning plow.
1t was thought that II the surface
was kept mellow and free from weeds,
| all requirements had been mot In fact
there seems to have been something
of prejudice against the use of the
pillow, as it was feared that the injury
to the tree roots would counterfeit any
/ beneficial effect.
The continued use Of shallow cult.
yators tends to form hard pan and
many orchards show the effects. Roots
need air, and lots of 1t, In order to
/ do their work effectively. The root
hairs are less abundant and many are
killed IL the tree is compelled to live
continuously in a hard, compact soil.
The effect on the .ree Is much the
same as though too much water had
been allowed to accumulate about the
to loosen such soils, and this can be
done best with a pillow, particularly II
supplemented by some growing crop
or stable manure which Is turned I'M
der
Peach growers in one Of the best
sections of Colorado, up to about three
years ago, would scarcely allow a
plov in the orchard; but since that
time its use has come to be nearly
universal. And we predict that 1t
will mot be long until a system of
green manuring will alss come into
general use.
The time of year to use the plow is
now agitating the minds of many. The
spring has been adopted in the east,
where for Is years a great deal OF
study has been devoted to the subject
of orchard culture. The orchard land
Is broken up as early as the weather
will permit, and clean culture Is given
when cover crop is sewn. Convenient
rains usually start this crop into
growth, when it helps mature tree
growth by using surplus moisture and
protects the soil in various ways until
the following spring. when it is turned
under to supply vegetable matter and
fertility to the soil.
We are now pretty well agreed that
the turning pillow should be used but
extended inquiries among orchardists
show that in general they have had
better results by turning the land over
in the fall The main reason advanced
for this preference Is that IL the land
is plowed in the spring, and particu-
larly if a green crop has been turned
under, it is nearly impossible to get
water over the ground without the
most of it getting much to wet The
result is yellow foliage and setback
to the trees, from which it takes them
some time to recover. This experience
will probably be found to be true OF
most soils.
We conclude then. that the use OF
the turning plow is very desirable, II
not essential, where clean cultivation
is given, and in the present state OF
our knowledge the fall Of the year
after the leaves are off, Is the best
time for its use.

The CABBAGE Stubs.

As soon as the heads have been re
moved from the cabbage stalks, the
latter should be carried from the
patch and thrown into the hog lot or
piled up where they can be burned.
Many of the fungous diseases, such
as club root, result from leaving the
roots or stubs in the patch too long. If
it Is thought that the ground needs q
covering, throw little manure on thu
surface. This can be removed III the
spring If 1t Is not necessary to pillow
1t under.
