MELONS ALL YEAR ROUND.

Delicious Fruit Can Be Produced by
Cultivation Under Glass.
In the summer melons are plentiful
on the market, but few there are who
know the delicious flavor, not to men,
ton size, of fully developed and well
ripened fruit grown under glass. Nor
is the season of such fruit limited, for
melons can be produced all the year
around. During the summer they can
be produced in fourteen weeks from
time of sowing, winter months taking
few weeks longer. To keep up
steady supply four small houses must
be devoted to them. These must have
adequate pipe heat to maintain the
temperature through the cold weather
and also to furnish bottom heat for
the plants. Raised benches with pipes
underneath answer both purposes well.
When sowing the seed use a good
open compost and place very lightly in
three inch pots, inserting one seed in
each pot and water in. Place the
whole in a house having temperature
Of 20 to IS degrees night and cover
with paper to maintain the moisture.
Good seed should terminate in about
four days. When seedlings are through
prepare bed for permanent planting.
Good, heavy loan with old lime rubble
mixed into it is all they require. Gov
er bottom of bench with sod, adding
more with lime srubble and ramming
as firm as possible until the whole is
four inches thick. Mix more of same
compost and also add little charcoal
for the mounds. These should be placed
on the bed twenty inches apart and
the seedlings planted in. Maintain
night temperature of 70 to Is degrees
and syringe twice daily. Take one
shoot up until the plants are three
quarters up trellis and then stop.
Laterals will now appear bearing fe
male flowers. Stop these one leaf be-
yond the flower. If possible three or
four of these should be fortified the
same day to insure an even crop. AS
the fruit swells it will need support.
Nets made for the purpose should be
used. During the time the fruit Is
swelling the plants will take lots of
water and feed. which can be given in
the form of light top dressing and
quick acting manures.
AS soon as fruit shows signs of rip
ening cease Swinging and keep drier
atmosphere and give all air possible.
Quality Is usually to be preferred to
size. especially as medium sized fruit
is easier to serve on table, being cut
through and cracked ice placed in
center.
Scarlet fleshed varieties usually are
of best flavor. but there are good green
and white fleshed varieties.-Horticul-
ture.

a BARGAIN.
Old Bill sackett Paid the Exact Price
He Offered.


He Offered.
Smith & Jones pride themselves or
being sharp dealers in wares. Having,
no competition in their little country
town, they sometimes tack on a little
more profit than the conditions justify.
The farmers know this, and they have
given the firm a reputation that is one
of the jokes of the county.
The other day old Bill Sackett came
to town to get four or five axes, hav-
ing decided to hurry up and cut lot
of cordwood to haul to pay taxes.
'"Them's putty fair axes" said Bill
after half dozen different kinds of
axes had been unwrapped and sub
nnitted to his critical examination.
''The best there is" said Smith &
Jones in concert.
A dozen men sitting on soap and
cracker boxes halted a debate on the
financial question TO watch the bar
gain.
whats the priceY' asked Bill.
"Sixty cents,' replied Smith & Jones
together.
"Ill tell you what I'll do" said Bill
refectively. "Ill give you fellers 80
cents apiece for five of 'em."
To sell five at one sale seemed a
good thing, and Smith & Jones nod
ded to each other, and in a moment
the axes were tied up and pushed over
the counter to Bill, who took the bun
die and laid down dollar bill.
Eye kin divide it between you, SO
cents apiece" advised Bill as he turn
ed and walked off, and the cracker
box audience shouted unanimously as
twelve brawny paws slapped twelve
legs with resounding whack.-Phila-

SELECTING SEED CORN.
Better Run Risk of Frost Than Pick
the Ears Too Early

Better Run Risk of Frost Than PICK
the Ears Too Early.
The first step toward better seed
corn for next year must be taken il
the fall by selecting the seed ears
from the stalks in the field. The corn
should be allowed to mature well on
the stalk. By selecting the earliest
maturing ears and picking them from
the stalk as soon as the husks begin tC
turn yellow, which is a common prac-
Of vitality, writes Professor Moore OF
the University of Wisconsin in the
American Agriculturist.
A slight frost will not injure corn If
it is well matured, and it is better to
run the risk of a frost than to pick the
ears too early. The latter part Of the
growing season seems to improve the
vitality of the. corn greatly.
Care should be taken in picking seed
to secure ears which are attached to
the stalk about three feet above the
ground. Those ears which grow either
very high or very low upon the stalk
should be rejected, as they are unde-
sirable. having characteristics which
we do not desire. For the same rea-
son we should avoid selecting ears
with very short or long shanks or
from deformed stalks.
Go into the field after the husks on
the ears have turned yellow and Sc
lect the well formed ears from good
stalks. Put them in sacks or baskets
and bring them to the side of the field
and husk 1t is we'll to follow definite
rows in securing seed corn, otherwise
a large number of good ears are
missed. After the corn is husked many
ears will be found imperfect and
should be discarded. Only those ears
should be retained for curing for seed
that are Of good form. Seed corn
should be put into the proper place for
curing the same day that it is taken
from the field

One summer | alighted from stage
