Ready for Young Trees.

While the stock is coming, prepare
the ground. 1t will not be necessary
to add new soil as the trees have been
selected with reference to the kind
found where they are to be planted.
Dig very large holes and fill them in.
The trees always do better in filled
ground than they do in that which has
not been broken up. If the land is
sod, 1t would be- well to plow the en-
tire strip, as grass is great enemy to
newly planted things. When the trees
arrive, take them at once to some
friable land near where they are to
be planted and heel them in. Nursery
stock Is often injured by being kept
too long In boxes. After the plants
are heeled in 1t will be safe to trans.
plant them to permanent places any
time within a week or ten days from
the Lme of their arrival.

TIPS FOR LOVER or FLOWERS


Plant the sweet peas early in
trenches fully six inches deep, cover
ing but lightly at first, drawing the
soil around the plants as they reach
up.
This will give better roots by which
to withstanding the dry heat by and
by. Plant as soon as possible.
Root room in fair soil is all the
beautiful white Day Lily asks. 1t is
perfectly hardy, likes moist situations,
but will do with little water. A plant
for the busy housewife.
Chrysanthemums may be raised
from seeds or from cuttings and
sprouts from old roots. If the seeds
are sown early in boxes and trans
planted the plants will bloom the first
year. There may be many poor ones
from seed.
Do not forget the hardy everbloom-
ing roses when ordering. Include
some hardy Towering vines for
screens for the porches, back fences
and summer arbors. Prairie roses,
evergreen honeysuckles, woodbines,
clenatis in variety, wistarias, bitter
sweet, trumpet vine and the harmless
wood ivies are all fine.

Garden Cart and WheeIbarrow.

On an average fully one-half of the
trees that die the first summer could
have been saved had they been prop
erly mulched and given a little water
when needed.
Young trees planted in exposed po-
sltions, where they are liable to heavy
wind and transforms, should be staked
and the trees tied to the stakes with
a rye straw or canvas band. An old
sail cut into strips makes excellent
bands. To keep the roots from being
loosened, where ground Is soft, place
four or five large stones on top OF the
mulch close up to the stem of tree.
Two of the most handy implements
on the farm for general, all-around
work, are the old-fashioned wheel
barrow and three-wheeled cart.

ATTENTION FOR YOUNG TREES
Ground Should Be Forked Up and Well
Mellowed and Then Covered Two
Inches with Manure.

Spring-planted fruit and ornamental
trees and bushes should have the
ground forked up and well mellowed
and then covered two inches deep
with long manure, straw, corn stalks,
rotted leaves, weeds or .reshly cut
grass. This mulch will keep the soil
cool and moist. II the summer is hot
and dry give to each tree one or two
buckets OF water. Apply the water
late in the evening, spread it slowly
around the trunk of tree 80 it can
reach the roots. If the water is
dashed against the stem most OF it
will run off the hard ground and it
will be of little benefit to the tree.

KILL OFF THE eRAssAoPPER
and Fear 1t Was Comparatively
Few Years Ago.
CBy F. L. wAsHBURN.)

Concerted action by government
and state authorities has had the eff
feet of changing the dreaded grass
hopper from a menace which was ma
tional In scope, to an insect which
while harmful enough in character, is
no looked upon with the horror and
fear it was comparatively few years
| ago.
There are many methods of CON-
batting these pests, but three methods
are especially practical in most local
tiles.
Fall Flowing is considered the most
stfiGient. Plow the eggpods under,
hurying some, and breaking open
others so that moisture can get in,
and exposing still others to the at
acks of their enemies-birds, shrews,
etc.
The second method is that of pois-
5ned bats. Use either poisoned bran
or the Criddle mixture. Poisoned
bran can be used only in situations
where stock and poultry are exclud-
d. Neither should it be used where
cartridge and quail are likely to feed.
t Is merely bran poisoned with paris
green or arsenic, two pounds of paris
green to 100 of bran, moistened with
water and a little molasses, SO that
he bran will just stick together when
taken up with spoon.
Criddle mixture is horse-manure
nlixed with arsenic and slightly salt
ed. 1t is to be distributed about the
fields in small masses. We all know
Of the fondness of grasshoppers for
anything containing salt They will
even roughen fork handles in their
efforts to get at the salt deposited on
them with the perspiration. This mix
ture is recommended in some of the
western states. The proportions are
about as follows: Paris green, one
pound; salt, two pounds; fresh horse
droppings, 100 pounds. The horse
droppings are usually measured out in
three-gallon pail. Five pailfulls be-
ing taken as the right amount for one
pound of the poison. The salt is dis

oats makes a most nutritious green
food.
1t pays to do right when you are
plowing corn.
Oats, peas and barley are sometimes
sown together.
Corn should not be planted until the
ground is warm and dry.
Leave no long nails sticking up out
OF fallen rails or posts in the pasture,
Corn planted in mellow soil will
terminate and make strong, healthy
growth.
Deep cultivation cuts off the side
roots OF the corn. and destroys part
of the crop.
Nearly every careful farmer has that
variety of corn best suited for his soil
and climate.
Two ounces of corrosive sublimate
to 16 gallons of water makes a solu-
ton that kills potato scab.
No use to, treat potatoes for scab IL
they are to be planted in ground in
which scabby potatoes grew last year.
Plant the first row or two of space
along the fence in the cornfelds ad-
Joining the pasture lands to potatoes.
Use slaked lime for the striped
squash or cucumber bug. An early
vine makes trap to catch the first
ones.
Corn that yields well in one locality
VIII often make an entire failure in
another locality where conditions are
different.
The keynote of success In corn
growing is frequent shallow cultiya-
tions rather than occasional deep cul-
tivafions.
For corn. cabbage and tomatoes.
piow down clover sod or clover and
grass sod. Harrow and roll until fine
and very mellow.
Land plaster is an excellent absor-
bent to use in the cutters and it's
use increases the value Of tho manure
to large extent.
Sweet clover is rapidly growing into
popularity. Is is one of tho best crops
that can be raised and 1t IL adapted
to wide variety OF soils.

: lHQNNOTES@Rsa

Evergreens ought to be planned as
early as possible
When buds begin to swell the time
Is right to top-graft.
Prune sparingly and little every
year, Is the best plan.
Just as soon now as frost Is out, the
ground will be ready for tree planting.
In that order for fruit trees, you
can't go wrong by putting in q few
Jonathan apples.
The era Of the haphazard and care
less horticulturist and agriculturist
has passed away.
For orchard spraying three-eighths
or half-inch hose is best, and in
lengths of 80 feet.
Soil for Strawberries should be a
deep, rich loan. capable of holding a
good deal of moisture.
1t Is not a good plan to plant trees
while the ground is wet and soggy.
Let It dry out little.
Don't get the idea that you cannot
obtain satisfactory results from spray
ing just because your neighbor failed.
Be sure that all of your hose COUP
lings are OF the same size SO that any
two lengths may be coupled together.
Any tendency to FANCY. shaped flower
beds and fancy flower stands and such
grimcracks should be firmly sup
pressed.
Do not expect satisfaction from
bordeaux mixture that has stood for
as much a. "a hours. II deterioratss
quickly.
When done spraying each day, run
some clean water through the pump,
70 wash out the spray mixture and
avoid oorrosion OF the working parts.

MORE GIRLS GO
BACK TO WORK

About 400 employees Of the Perth
Amboy Cigar Works returned today
at the old wage scale, according to
the police. About 800 were report
ed to be at work there yesterday and
officials at the plant say about 500
are working today. There was no
disorder when the employees went in
this morning, but several local labor
leaders were on hand to persuade
the strikers not to return. At the
same time factory officials were per-
suading girls to go In.
Mary Chesmar, the Polish woman
arrested early yesterday morning for
throwing stones and melting to riot
at the cigar works, was let go yes
terday afternoon by Chief Of Police
Burke with a warming to keep the
peace and remain away from the
cigar factory during the remainder
of the strike. She promised and vas
released. This action was taken fol-
lowing a conference between the
chief and Recorder Kehoe. Because
of her family affiliations the officials
decided it was perhaps best not to
send her to Jail.
Like Joseph Tylkoff, general or
ganizer for the American Federation
of Labor, she was warned that her
next appearance at the scene of the
strike would mean a jail sentence
without further hearing.

TROLLEY CAR
HIT A HORSE
Matawan Man Meets With
Loss Near Lawrence Harbor.
Special to the EVENING NEWs.

tpeCluI 10 the ENING NE We.
South Amboy, July 24:-Charles
Wood, of Matawan, had a narrow
escape from serious injury shortly
after noon yesterday when his rig
which he W. driving, was run down
by a work car of the Jersey Gen.
trail Traction Company on a cross
ing below Lawrence Harbor, near
Morgan. Wood was grabbed under
the arm, when the car and wagon
: c%ollided, by an Italian workman,
who was standing on the front steps
OF the trolley. The man was hauled
aboard and escaped even minor in
juries.
According to an official of the
company, Wood e~ndeavored to cross
the company's tracks without warn-
ing to the approaching trolley car,
at a private crossing. The rig and
car were going towards Matawan,
when Wood suddenly pulled his
horse to the right, and endeavored
to pass in front of the car. The
wagon was demolished and one Of
horses legs broken in two places.
The suffering animal was immedi-
ately shot. After the work car had
hit the rig, and the Italian had pull
ed Wood aboard, 1t jumped the
tracks and dashed into an iron pole.
No one was injured.
