Branching Celery.

Blanch it in accordance with cir
cumstances. If you grow the self
blanching sorts. and especially If you
want them early and must blanch
them in hot weather, then use boards
eight to twelve inches wide and Of
any length. Also, if you have only
a small spot of ground available for
celery, and must plant close, the
board-blanching method is what you
want.
Any kind of inch boards will an
swer the purpose. Set two boards up
on long edge, one on each side of the
row of plants, slanting toward the
plants. and fasten them there by little
stakes driven into the ground outside
and inside. The space left between
the upper edges of the two boards
need not be more than two or three
inches. This gives room enough for
the stalks to come through. Some
times We just lean the boards against
the row of plants, one from each side

New Blood.

The mistaken ideas about intro
ducing new blood into a flock of poul-
try are something truly wonderful.
The popular notion is that one must
every year get a new rooster, no mat
ter of what breed. to keep the stock
from running OUT" when this is the
very thing to make it run out.
Proper mating and selection for vigor
In the same line and breed is what
builds up a strain. 1t gives fewer
conflicts of hereditary traits; fewer
introductions of undesirable tenden-
cies, and greater percentage of good
ones.-T. c. X, in the Industrious
Hen.

Stoppagc at the Poirt o: Tcat.

a very common trouble in the ordi-
nary dairy is 10 find an animal with
the point Of the teat closed, either
due to bruise of the tcat itself or
TO infection of the milk duct, which
causes little scab to form over the
point of the teat and unless this is
properly handled with care and clean
illness. the infection is apt to cause a
loss of the entire quarter.
The proper manner in which to
handle and treat such cases is to thor
oughly wash the teat in an antiseptic
solution. then dip q teat plug into a
healing ointment and insert it into
the point of the teat. allowing same
to remain from one milking to an
other. In this manner closure of the
point of the teats can be overcome in
very simple and satisfactory way
Never use d milking tube If it can
be possibly avoided. as there is much
danger of injecting the entire quarter
by the use of the tube.-Dr. David

Tomato Black Rot.

This is very prevalent rot of the
tomato, and attacks the fruit most
frequently. 1t is wound parasite,
the spores readily lodging and ger
minating in the style, the point of in
sertion of the stem or any other crack
or wound in the plant or fruit.
When infected, dark colored
mycelium penetrates the tissue, form
Ing rotten spot within the tomato,
and in consequence Of the rotting of
the tissues a sunken region appears
on the surface. Later on, blackish
olive colored spores are produced on
these spot. The spores are many
celled and germinate quickly under
damp conditions.
Thorough spraying with potassium
sulphide at frequent intervals will
control the disease. All infected
parts should be cut off and burned.
Fresh stable manure is said to be
harmful in that it aids the fungus ts
spread.

Dairy Thoughts.

No cow can supply blood for un-
limited numbers of ticks and give
lots of milk at the same time and
keep it up.
IL one cannot buy cows of the
recognized dairy breeds, one can at
least select cows of the breeds he can
get that have a peculiar fitness for
dairy work.
This Is particularly the time of
year that a separator has a decided
advantage over skimming milk, and
a separator is a good thing all the
time.
Do your cows wade in dirty water?
Their udders cannot be clean If they
do, and need cleaning before milking.
A lot of bother? Yes, and profitable.
Germs multiply much faster in
warm weather, and especial atten-
ton is necessary at this time to keep
filth from carrying germs into the
milk and doing it harm.
There is no section of the country
where dairying is carried on extern
sively and intelligently that fails to
prosper. Neither are there men who
w WHO ldll "
prosper at 1t.
Suppose you were SO disregardful
of your cows comfort that you did
not care whether ticks ate them half
up, it would still pay to paint them
occasionally with cottonseed oil to
kill the ticks and keep up the milk
fiow.
Sometimes we hear so much about
using only dairy breeds for milk pro-
duction that it is likely to discourage
the man who can use only a plain
cow" No one should be discour-
aged by any such means. He can do
the best with the cows he can get, and
later do better by the use of better
cows. All should encourage the man
who is making start in life or in
dairying, so he will develop. Later
he will make good patron of breed
ers Of we'll bred mixers.

Gumption on the Farm.

II you hoe your own row with dill
gence, you will have little leisure to
note how your neighbor is hoeing his.
Better have patches on your pants,
than a lot Of unpaid bills and threat
ening creditors.
How can any man sleep we'll at
night when he has scoldcd ard
whipped his horses all day?
Enough dry wood and chips to last
a week ahead is riches; fire out and
the last stick gone is poverty.
If you tell a boy, day after dag,
that he isn't earning his salt, he will
soon be likely to work down to that
estimate.
If the soil needs undertaking,
now is an excellent time to lay the
tiles. They should be at least two
and a half feet deep.
Don't give the cats and dogs stale,
dirty or soapy water to drink. See
that it is clean and fresh. You know
how it is yourself.
1t pays better to be behind every
body else in getting fall grain sowed,
and thus have the ground well
stirred, than to hog it over and have
it half done.
Money spent on booze is wasted,
spent on clothes is vanity, spent on
food is gone, and fooled away is
wicked; but money spent for seed
or a fruit tree is wisely invested.
The patrons along rural route a"e
apt to expect too much from the car
rier. 1t would be a great help to the
farmer to apply to the Government
for copy Of the postal laws in refer
ence to the regulation of rural car
riers.
Are you planning to build a new
house? Don't make it too large.
Many houses are so large that the
women folks are kept scrubbing a
good share of the time. Large
enough for all practical purposes,
but no larger, should be the rule.
In an address on the subject of
corn, Professor Beal remarked that
the topmost ear was the best for
seed; of two fields, one planted with
seed taken at random and the other
selected in the field, the latter yield
ed as much again as the former

Continuation Clover Cover Crop.

A. G. P, Jeffersonian, writes: How
would 1t do to SOW rye with crimson
clover for hay or green manure?
Would the rye overshadow the clover
too much? Would both crops be
ready for hay at the same time?
What do you think of sowing rye and
sapling clover, and moving the rye
early for hay, and later either NOW or
plow under the clover?
Answer: 1t will be good practice to
SOW crimson clover in your orchard
about the middle of July to the first
of August. Crimson clover makes an
excellent clover crop, and as a rule
does very well in this State II put in
early enough to make strong growth
before cold weather. Rye and GRIM
son clover do very we'll together II a
light seeding of rye is used. You
should not use over three pecks to
one bushel of rye. and at least fifteen

Farmers Who Don't Worry

The farmer who raises his own
bread and meat and fruit and vege-
tables, and makes cotton his surplus
money crop, is in position to hold
his cotton until the price suits him.
He is the farmer who isn't worried
by debts and mortgages.
