CABBAGE WORMS

Nearly every one who grows cab
bage is troubled more or less with
these pests, and we are glad to note
every remedy which has been tried by
gardeners. We give two herewith
which can be recommended to do
what is claimed for them. Take a
pint of barrel salt and dissolve it in a
gallon Of water. After the salt is
thoroughly dissolved sprinkle it on
the cabbage with common garden
sprinkler. The result is no worm
eaten cabbage.
Take alum and dissolve it in water
and apply it to the cabbage with a
common sprinkler as often as there
are any worms to be seen. A few
applications are sufficient. This rem
edy is entirely harmless, not very ex-
pensive, and is sure destruction to the
worms. Make the solution quite
strong with alum. Weekly Witness.

STALKING ToMAToEs.

Years ago when living in North
Iowa we found tomatoes an uncertain
crop if the plants were left to grow
at will, but after we begun to prune
and stake them we(were sure of fruit
every year.
Our method was to prune all the
lateral branches after allowing two
off-shoots from the main stem and
driving strong stake by each plant
we tied automatic vine to this as it
grew at intervals Of a foot or so. The
ground being very rich the vines had
abundant foliage to protect the fruit
and the clusters of large red tomatoes
when the unpruned, unsupported
plants had barely begun to set fruit
were unmistakable evidence that We
were on the right track.
Later, since coming South, we have
used four-foot poultry netting, setting
the tomatoes in rows north and south.
Sometimes we have planted pole
beans on the west side of the netting
and tomatoes on the east, but when
doing this we need heavy supports OF
stakes every six feet.-Mrs. D. G.
CaTnman, in The Epitomist.

PURPLE-Top RuTARAGA-

Professor Rane, of the New Hamp-

baga for the reason that it is a fine
market sort, often selling in the mar
kets for double the price of the early
white turnip. 1t is also splendid

ed as late as the early turnips, it can
be used as follow crop after early

BLACKBERRIEs NATIVES.

Like the turkey and many other
things par excellence, the blackberry.
is strictly an American plant and we
owe Europe or,the Orient nothing on
its account. Moreover, it is difficult
to find anything in the fruit line
which surpasses in juiciness and
flavor the wild blackberry of the Mid
die States when it is full ripe. The
common wild blackberry Of Virginia,
when found growing in rich, moist
soil, or if cultivated produces fine and
large berries. The famous Lawton
berry was simply wild bush, found
growing by Mr.. Lawton on the road
side near New Rochelle, N. Y. 1t is
sometimes called the New Rochelle
Wilson's Early, which has largely dis
placed the Lawton in many markets,
was also found as wild plant. The

OF ANTHRACITE
ONE Kindred YEARS AGO JUDGE
Jesse FELL DEMONSTRATED
TO PUBLIC THAT COAL
STONE" WOULD BURN.

WILKES-BARRE, Pa, Feb Ii
With a program of addresses and fes
tivities and the striking of come
memorative medal, the centennial
anniversary of the first burning of
anthracite coal in "a domestic crate
was celebrated in Wilkes Barre to-
day. The observance was under the
auspices of the Wyoming Valley His
toricaI and Geological society, which
was founded on February H.. 1858,
the semi-centennial of the. event
which was celebrated today.
Before the experiment which was
made by Judge Jesse Fell in his tav-
ern in Willkes-Barre on the, old
Wilkes-B Barre and Eastern Turnpike,
now Northampton street, anthracite
coal was held as being of little value.
for it was thought that it would not
burn except under forced draft. Al
though there were millions of tons,
of it lying about and under the Wy
omfng, Lackawanna, Lehigh and
Schuylkill regions, little of it was
used for this reason, even the black
smiths claiming that when once ig-
! n ted it would not burn unless the
! bellows was kept continually in OPP.
! Grafton. Judge Jesse Fell did not
believe this and by disproving it by
burning the anthracite in an open
CRATE he opened the way to an in
dustry which now gives employment
to 10000 men, who produce TO-
| 100000 tons of anthracite coal an
nually, and which has given millions
Of dollars in royalties to the own
ers of the lands, and has made them
the social leaders in the communi-
ties in which Winkes-Barre and
Scranton are the centers.
The experiment of Judge Fell is
thus described in an old magazine:
1T was a bitterly cold winter
nfght, with a hard wind blowing
and there was a fine draught up the
chimney. 1t was not long before the
stones glowed in the open CRATE ant

of the experiment quickly spread

as Alva Edison, the wizard of the
age of electricity, today celebrated
his 61st birthday. Although he has
achieved financial independence by
his hundreds of inventions the aged
wizard is still busily engaged on
many projects that will be of the
greatest benefit to humanity. OF
late he has spent a considerable por-
tion of his time in investigating the
possibilities latent in concrete as
house building material, and has per
fected machinery whereby such
houses may be modelled quickly and
in an economical manner. Several
other ideas are revolving in the fer
the brain of the wizard and If his
life is spared foc another decade it
is likely that he will again startle
the world with some revolutionary
product of his genius.
Mr.. Edison was born at Milan,
Ohio, February IL, 1S47 He began
his business career at the age of
IL as a newsboy. When still in his
youth he became telegrapher and
was while engaged in this occupa-
tion that he became interested in the
marvels Of electricity and com.
menced the career as an inventor
which has made his name famous
throughout the world
The wizard attributes his Ions
life and the preservation of his &C.
tivities of his mental processes tc
the regularity of his habits. He re
tires at midnight and arises at $50
eats but little and works almost in
cessantly in his laboratory from s II
the morning until in the evening

some regulations for a long and use

some OF his fellow Americans:

thing upon your mind-that is tina
