OF Interest to the Farmers
WHEN PLANTS ARE FROZEN.


Hints On Restoring Window Garden
Flowers TO Health.
During the winter the amateur IN
gardening has much to contend with.
and not the least OF the evils is frost.
especially where an endeavor Is made
to keep more or less tender plants
through the cold. dull months in 4
poorly heated greenhouse or frame.
Fortunately science has come to our
aid and taught us few things con-
corning the effects Of frost on tender
plants, and with these principles fully
grasped we are In position to combat
frost. Plants which are kept as dry
as possible during 4 spell of frosty
fer from this cause will withstand sue
cessfully far more frost than the same
kind of plants whose tissues are gorged
with liquid. and science has also taught
MS that the greatest mischief is caused
by rapid thawing.
To grasp the above facts 1t may be
as well before proceeding further to
just consider briefly what really hap
pens when plant gets frozen. It IS
now generally known that plant. like
the human body, Is made up OF tiny
cells, each OF which, Of course. has its
own walls. Under ordinary conditions
and when q plant has abundance of
moisture at its disposal these cells are
turgid with liquid. Now, when liquid
becomes frozen it Is one Of the laws
OF nature that expansion takes place,
and In the case Of that In the plant
cells no exception to this law is made.
This expansion, then. results in rup-
ture Of the plant cell wallis, which un-
der ordinary conditions OF thawing
causes the plant to collapse.
1t has been proved that when plant
is thawed very slowly the plant cells
are able to absorb the moisture which
has been forced by expansion through
the cell walls, and the rupture Is to q
great extent made good
Assuming that the plants have not
been watered more often than is abso-
lutely necessary and that one morning
we visit the greenhouse or frames to
know that II they are to be saved
thawing must be done very slowly.
First OF all, we must take care that
the heating apparatus, II any is used,
does not get into working order again,
and il there is any likelihood OF q
burst Of sunshine shade the structure
with thick mats or anything else that
can be quickly secured. Then procure
an abundant supply Of Ice cold water
and syringe or otherwise drench the
plants with this until frost is grad
ually removed from the tissues. This
will probably mean very cold hands
and chattering teeth, but It is either
this or losing the plants. For several
days subsequently the plants should
be kept as cool as possible without
allowing frost to reach them again.

Makes Two Bales 1t Time and Aver
ages Six Hundred Bales ! Day.
Theodule Guidry, a resident Of
Church Point. La, who for many years
has been interested In farming and
improving the devices used by farm
ers, has received patent on new
double baler hay press. This press Is
unique In it's construction, having done
away with the large springs ordinarily
in use on such balers and decreased
the draft to minimum. Experiments
with models have demonstrated q ca
pacity Of fifty or sixty bales IN hour.
It is constructed with baling cham
Der on both ends Of the press and COM
presses the hay by plunger working
on crank shaft past the feed box on
each end. The crank shaft II connect
ed to a beam to which one horse Is
hitched for power, and at each round
of the horse a stroke 10 made on two
different bales, one on each end. It is
possible with this model to get bale
Ut any desired weight, the same being
controlled by two springs attached to
. movable side Of the baler which reg
ulates the compression Of bales.
Mr.. Guidry says he thinks the baler
will beat anything on the market for
speed and simplicity. and he is now
negotiating with manufacturing COM
panies for Its construction and sale.

PLEA FOR THE. TOAD.


Eats Bad insects.
B. W. Douglass, state entomologist
for Indiana. who Is the bitter Toe Of
every insect that lives on the fruit and
foliage Of the state and the friend Of
every agent that tends to destroy such
pests. Is ont with a plea TO the farmers
and gardeners to protect the American
toad, or Mr.. Bufo Americana. to be
explicit. In making laws to protect
insect eating birds. observes Mr.. Doug
lass, no one has ever proposed to pre-
vent legally the enthusiastic small
boy from killing as many toads as he
cares to. The plea will appear In the
annual report from the chronological
department, which has gone to the
state printer and which Mr.. Douglass
hopes to have in the hands OF q large
number OF farmers and gardeners by
the time early spring preparations be
gin for the 1910 crops.
AS a matter OF fact" says Mr..
Douglass. "the common toad does more
to rid our fields and gardens Of noxious
insects than many of the feathered
songsters Of which we hear so much.
But simply that he Is ugly emphatic
ally and most Enthusiastically ugly-the
toad has all manner Of defamation and
libel heaped upon him.
EARLY superstitions have charged the
toad with about all the vicious quail
ties possible for one creature to pos
sess. Some OF these traditions, how
ever, are Of such nature as to render
the toad an individual to be avoided
rather than to be sought and killed.
But in spite Of his ugliness the little
animal is about as harmless as any we
can find I'm our woods and fields. and
as destroyer Of insects his value has
been established beyond a doubt.
Ninety-eight per cent Of the food OF
the toad consists OF animal matter,
and Of this the greater part is injuri-
GUS insects"
Mr.. Douglass advances the idea that
farmers and gardeners should provide
artificial ponds or water places In their
fields and gardens where the toad may
breed. The little animal possesses the
home instinct and when taken from
the ponds or creeks and placed in a
garden or field is likely to desert his
new quarters and return to the old.
To obviate this Mr.. Douglass believes
the gardeners and farmers should
provide breeding places in order to
make the fields and gardens the actual
home Of the toads.
In addition to the good which may
result from having the toads feel at
home in the fields and gardens, Mr..
Douglass sees another good in the
hatchery idea-that Of robbing the
children OF their propensity for STAY
ing the toads whenever they find them.
He believes that the average boy. by
watching the development OF the lit
tie animal through the tadpole stage
to that of the adult toad, will soon
have a scientific interest in the toad
which viii insure It life aud protec-
ton. This protection, the entomologist
observes, IS something the farmer and
gardener cannot afford to disregard In
these days Of constant and rapid In.
crease OF insects which prey upon farm
and garden products.
