An Unannreciated Plant.

Chives is a vegetable not widely
known in this country. It is native
along the northern borders of the
United States as well as in some parts
of Europe, where it is popular. The
plant belongs to the onion family, and
its leaves are used for seasoning in
soups, salads, ETC., and are preferred
to onions by many persons because
they are much milder and more ten
der. Europeans use chives for season
ing scrambled eggs and similar dishes.
The culture of chives is simple. The
plant will grow in any ordinary gar
den soil 1t is usually propagated by
division of the roots, because 1t does
not seed readily. The roots or clumps
of roots may be purchased at moderate
prices. The clumps should be planted
in beds about nine inches apart III
rows which are two feet apart. The
planting may be done in either spring
or autumn The chives may also be
planted in the border of the vegetable
garden and makes an excellent perma-
nent border. AS a border plant the
clumps should be planted about SIX
inches apart The leaves will grow
thickly and form a dense green mat.

Nature and the Barnacle.

In the barnacle we have a unique
and wonderful case Of IL creature that
can afford as age comes on to dispense
with the eyesight that was so useful
in youth. For the young and old
barnacle are as different one from the
other as fishes from seaweed. In the
heyday of life the barnacle swims
about the sea. seeking it's food with the
aid of its eyes and generally leading q
roaming existence. Later in life, how
ever, it grows tired of this aimless
wandering and settles down to worry
ships captains by attaching itself to
the keel of their craft and defying the
much advertised powers of various pre-
ventive paints. Once, then, the barna
Gle has become fixture, whether on
ships or sharks, it's eyesight is of no
more USE 1t cannot seek it's food, and
it cannot shun It's foes, for it never
more will move. Therefore its eyes
become superffuOus and according to
natures invariable rule in such cases,
disappear.

The Cankerworm Again.

The worm which devastated elm
trees and apple trees in Connecticut Is
the cankerworm, the same pest that
visited trees ten years ago. The worm
does it's work very rapidly, but, unlike
the elm tree beetle, does not have a
long life anC consequently the trees can
put forth new foliage, though at some
sacrifice of "itality. On the apple trees
it can be destroyed by arsenical spray
ing, but the trees must be treated when
the worm is very young If the work Is
to be effective. The banding OF the
trunks of the trees with vermicides is
the most effective method of proven
ton. The reports from the state re-
ceived at the Connecticut agricultural
experiment station indicate a very
great variation in the number of pests,
some towns suffering very seriously
and others being quite free from the
visitation

FARMING Notes.

Remember the importance Of the
kitchen garden.
When mustard is a serious pest the
fields are sprayed with a solution that
kills the weed. but does not harm the
crop.
Preaching economy doesn't amount
to much. You must practice 1t, but
there is such a thing as being too
economical.
In Holland they rotate the fertili-
zers as well as the crops. Each crop
has its particular coaXer. Perhaps
that's why they farm successfully on
land worth $1,000 per acre.
Read what people who know from
experience say about incubators.

THE UP TO DATE FARMER.
How He Makes Agriculture Paying
Business.

How He Makes Agriculture a Paying
Business.
The up to date farmer knows tie
value of being up to date. He knows
that new discoveries in the various sci
ences related to agriculture reveal new
relations and suggest better methods.
He knows that many Of the theories
held and many of the methods prac-
ticed years ago, and some even now,
are worthless. He knows that one
farmer cannot make as many expert
ments as can a thousand men.
He reads books on farming and does
not scott at the book farmer, nor does
he refuse to listen to the college pro
fessors, for, while he has great respect
for the students of agriculture, yet he
knows that the time has not come and
never can come when agriculture shall
be reduced TO a rigid science, which
shall be governed by code of rules
and laws, as are such sciences as chem
istry, physics and the like.
The up to date farmer has the latest
improved farming implements and tC
save horsepower and to do most eff
cient work always keeps them in per-
feet order. He does not use pillow that
will not scOur nor one that Is dull nor
one whose adjustment is such that
three horses must work hard to do the
work which two could easily do with a
pillow properly adjusted He under.
stands the application Of force to all
his farm machinery so that the great.
est amount of work is accomplished
with the least expenditure Of power.
When his farm implements are not in
use he keeps them we'll housed If it is
profitable to do so. A hundred dollar
wagon shed into which a twenty-five
dollar farm wagon is backed by hand
every time the team is unhitched is not
profitable.
The up to date farmer pays his debts.
Not the least important of these is the
one he owes to the soil. He knows that
each crop which the soil yields takes
from it something Of its fertility and
that unless this fertility is returned to
the soil it can soon yield only dimin-
ished crop. So he is very careful yeaI
by year to pay back to his land that
fertility which the crop has taken from
1t. He knows many ways of doing this,
and the one which he will adopt will
depend upon the neighborhood. He
knows that he can run a dairy, and
when he sells a ton of butter, worth
perhaps $500. it will impoverish his
farm no more than to sell five or six
hundred pounds of straw worth about
dollar.
He will keep his hired help all the
year, and year after year, for the longer
they are in his employ the more valu-
able they are to him and the more he
can afford to pay them. He will buy
more food than he SELLS will raise all
the feed he can for his stock and will
not hesitate to buy more when needed
If he is wise in the management of
the fertilizers from his barns and feed
lots and wise in their distribution up
on his meadows and pastures and wise
in sowing clovers for his corn land
and among the grasses of his farm he
will in time greatly increase its fer
tility.-Farm and Fireside.

said the other day about his cooking

French stuff the hotels all have, and
there is no one to give him what he

Mrs. Horton had nodded approvingly
upon her well preserved daughter, and
so the campaign was begun.
They were fortunate in the posses

Horizons had an income, small, but as

penniless they had permitted his
daughter, Dora, to enter their house

he must not remove from the hotel to
a boarding house where his simpler
needs could be suited, and it was only
at the Horizons that he could escape
that terrible menu card, with its res
taurant French and its overrich
sauces.
He did not always want steaks and
roasts, and the knowledge that there
were good things on the bill which he
could not translate only added to his
dissatisfaction.
It was after an especially trying
meal at the hotel that Dave armed
himself with box Of violets and sal
lied forth to propose to Nell. He had
slowly come to the conclusion that
Nell was no longer as young as she
pretended to be, but she offered escape
from the hotel, and he was sick of the
place-sick of its cuisine, its grinning
bellboys, its servile walters and its ar
rogant clerks.

Lived to Eioht Another Day.

Frederick the Great simply lost his
head at Molwitz, his first battle. Had
he not been a king it is safe to say
that he would have been shot at the
next sunrise. In the heat of the
carnage he got an idea that the army
under his command was being over
whelmed, SO he put the spurs to his
horse and dashed headlOng among his
soldiers. He rode many miles before
he stopped in his wild fight. Late at
night he was discovered hiding in an
old mill, awaiting. as he thought, cap
ture by the enemy. Then he discov-
cred that the army he deserted had
won the battle. AS Frederick was a

and after that, when the king went to
war, he was just as brave as any 9th
er Soldier.

Schools For Animals.

'You never heard Of schools for ami
mails? Well, that shows your igno-
rance" said the professor.
'"There is an elephants school in
SIAM" said he. young elephants are
taught in it to take up and carry in
their trunks great teakwood logs-no
easy task, for the logs require delicate
balancing. They are taught to kneel,
to answer to the various strokes Of the
ankus, or goad, and, like saddle horses,
they learn several gaits. Pets schools
abound the world over. There are
schools for white mice, for monkeys,
for song birds, not to mention the ia
nous photograph school for teaching
parrots to talk that is the pride Of
Philadelphia. The big dealers in wild
animals usually run small schools
where lions, tigers, bears and leopards
are taught simple tricks. Such schools
are very profitable. Where an I'M
