BAGG1NG GRAPES.

When grapes are bagged at an ear
ly stage there is hardly any work in
the fruit line that pays better than
it does. 1t practically assures per-
feet bunch to every one so treated.
The time to bag them is just as soon
as the Towering is over. Many in
sects and blights are not long in find
ing out bunch of grapes, and
though week or two after Towering
would be soon enough, in all proba-
bility, it is better to do the work as
soon as the flowers fade. Almost
everyone is familiar with the length
of bunch of grapes, and in bagging,
all one has to do is to pace the
bunch inside of bag Of sufficient
length, give the mouth of the bag a
folding or twisting together and then
pinning the mouth and the work is
done, and the bunch is safe. With
the closing and fastening of ths
mouth of the bag it both excludes
fungous germs and all insects, both
of which pests destroy whole crops
often where not molested, says Prac-
teal Farmer.
When the fruit is taken from the
bags when ripe it presents a beau
tiful appearance. The berries are
covered with bloom, much more SO
than the best lunches which are
produced without them. In many
districts more grapes are destroyed
by an insect that lays its eggs on the
fruit, which later produce maggot
which destroys the berry. Usually
such an attack is not confined to a
berry or two, but takes every berry
on bunch. Bagging gets over all
such troubles, and unless to preserve
the foliage from blight, no spraying
of any kind is required. The com
mon paper bags, such as grocers use,
are quite good enough for bagging
purposes.

THE CARE OF cANNAs.

"A deniZen of the moist swamps OF
the tropics, the Gamma, in order to do
its best, needs not only sunshine and
water, but moist air. Without
lawn spray this cannot very well be
supplied and even when it is the pur-
pose is not always completely an
swered. 1t is possible, nevertheless,
for any one, who will take sufficient
pains with them, to grow cannas sat
isfactorily in almost any spot or place.
A good way, when the plants are TAX
en- up in the fall, is to topdress the
bed with well rotted manure to make
it rich for the next season. II no
manure, otherwise, is applied until
spring. it should be exceedingly fine.
While growing it is also beneficial
to use on the bed liberal mulch of
well rotted manure. This will keep
the roots cool, and at the same time
if watered daily be constant source
of moisture. to the air lying immedi-
ately over the bed. Planted with
other flowers in the centre of the bed
helps to keep the cannas more moist

NEW IDEA
Helped Wis. Couple.

It doesn't pay to stick too closely.
to old notions Of things. New ideas
often lead to better health, success
and happiness.
A Wis. couple examined an idea
new to them and stepped up several
rounds on the health ladder. The
husband writes:
Several years ago we suffered
from coffee drinking, were sleepless,
nervous, sallow, weak, and irritable.
My wife and both loved coffee and
thought 1t was bracer." (delusion).
Finally, after years of suffering
we read of Postum and the harmful
ness Of coffee, and believing that to
grow we should give some attention
to new ideas, we decided to test Pos
tum.
when we made it right we liked
it and were relieved Of ills caused by
coffee. Our friends noticed the
change fresher skin, sturdier nerves,
better temper, etc.
"These changes were not sudden,
but relief increased as we continued
to drink and enjoy Postum, and we
lost the desire for coffee.
MANY of our friends did not like
Postum at first, because they did not
make it right. But when they boiled
Postum according to directions on
pkg, until it was dark and rich they
liked it better than coffee and were
benefited by the change" There's
Reason"

one appears from time to time. They

The Undesirable Bachelor.

English bachelors should take warn
Ing and join the ranks OF the bene-
diets before the Government levies
a tax upon their single blessedness.
It is claimed that the unmarried man
does not bear his share of the bIr-
den of taxation because he pays only
the income tax and indirect taxation
for one person, while the average
married man pays both of these in
addition to an inhabited house duty"
local rates and indirect taxes for the
average family of four Obviously
the married man is at a disadvan-
tage.
The stability and power of state
are closely concerned with its mar
ried population, and baehelorhood was
discouraged even among the ancients,
often by a loss of certain political
rights. Statistics show that in Eng
land the number OF bachelors is in.
creasing. Unmarried men of 20 years
and upward have increased 20 more
per 1000 in the decade between 1891
nuu ISU1s 1uO ICpO4b Vi IAO
Regtstrar-G General recently issued
shows that the proportion Of bache.
lors per 1000 males of Is years and
upward was 1886 in 1871 and AL in
1901.
A tax upon bachelorhood is not al
together improbable, because we can
find precedents for il in English law
at times when the nations expendi-
lures were abEomnally great. During
the reign of William III. every unmar-
ried man above the age of 25 years
was compelled to pay special tax,
varying from Is, to 912 los, accord
ing to the persons income. This was
levied until 17O6. In 1885 bachelors
servants were taxed at higher rate
than were ordinary domestics, and
five years later Pitts graduated in
come tax was more severe upon the
unmarried than upon the married
men. Truly, the bachelor needs be-
are!-Harper's Weekly.

RATION FOR SHEEP.

Sheep which are being fattened re-
quire more heterogeneous ration
than other animals, the nutritfve ra-
ton varying from 1873 to 1:4.5 in
what may be termed the two fattening
periods. They fatten more rapidly
when shorn of their wool, more espe-
cially in warm weather, owing to the
more restful condition in which they
may be kept, and for the production
of wool all that seems to be necessary
is to keep the animals in good con-
dition of thrift. Farmers Home

A NEW SULPHUR WASH.

During the past season the Depart
ment of Agriculture has made an i'm
portant discovery that the self-boiled
lime sulphur wash is not injurious to
peach foliage when properly made.
and will not produce russeting and
other injurious effects on apples.
Furthermore, it has been found to be
about as effective as fungicide as
the standard bordeaux mixture. Ex-
tensive experiments have been car.
ried on during the year by the De-
partment on nearly all Of the COM
mon fruit diseases which are pre-
.ventable by spraying and it has been
demonstrated that the above mixture
is very useful one.

APPLES WANTED IN EUROPE.

APPLES WANTED IN EUROPE.
Large receivers and distributors of
fruit in London, Liverpool and Ham
burg, in letters to the American Agri-
culturist, are unanimous in the opin-
ion that there is a good market
abroad for high class American APP
pies Fine looking red fruit is de-
manded by both English and German
consumers. The English crop, ac-
cording to all accounts, is not as sat
isfactory as early reports indicated.
there being a scarcity of choice APP
pies. Furthermore, these European
crops are always largely out of the
way by the time our winter season for
shipping is we'll on. Germany is in a
similar position, having large home
crop of common apples and offerings
from nearby countries. What is de-
manded is the finer grades of large
red apples, which make a good APP
pearance and also have the right fla
vor. With reference to further ship
ments of choice apples these dealers
are of the opinion that good market
will prevail.
