PROFIT IN APPLES.
An Extensive Industry Along
the Border Line of Canada.
Foreign Markets Get the Pick
of This Wholesome Fruit.
Canada annually exports thousands
of barrels of apples, and farmers find
more profit in this industry than in
general farming. The line along the
border of Canada in the United States
is equally adapted to the growth of tho
fruit, and the larger part of our
apple crop comes from along this
northern tier of states. Nearly 400,000
barrels of apples were shipped from
this country abroad in 1891, and more
than that number several times over
is reserved for home consumption.
England is a great purchaser of
apples, and she takes all tho surplus
crop that Canada can produce, and of
late years Australia has been trying to
make up tho balance which Canada
fails to till. Nevertheless the markets
of the world are so broad, and the de¬
mand so general, that American farm¬
ers are increasing their apple orchards
rapidly.
Apples from this country generally
command from three to four times as
much as the English apples. English
horticulturists claim that this due to
the greater care in picking and pack¬
ing American apples, only the finer
varieties of which, known as dessert
apples, aro shipped to Europe. The
best apples from the Northern part of
our country command even better
prices than oranges in the English
markets. The vast majority of the
inferior apples are consumed in this
country, while tho foreign markets
get the pick of the fruit.
The soil best adapted to the cultiva¬
tion of the apple tree is tho deep loam
of the old red sandstone, and for this
reason the greater part of the North¬
ern States and southern Canada are
well adapted to their growth, The
rich soil of the "Western Stales pro¬
duces apples of a larger size tliau
those of New England, but they are
inferior in flavor. Tho apple is one
of the hardiest fruits that wo have,
and it will flourish as far North as the
isotherm of 65 degrees, and even far¬
ther. In the Sothern States the apples
decrease in quantity and quality, as
the winters are too short and the sum¬
mers too long. It has been a pioblem,
however, for some time to introduce
4 * iron-clad” varieties of apples, which
will stand the severe winters winch
will occasionally sweep across north¬
ern Maine, Vermont and Canada. Tho
ordinary varieties are often killed by
the cold, and only produce crops occa¬
sionally. The Russian iron-clad varie¬
ties have been introduced hore, and
when crossed with tho native stock
they produce a flue tree, uniting tho
hardy qualities of the Russian apples
with the sweetness and flavor of tho
American fruit. The Red Astrakhan,
which is so celebrated in all our mar¬
kets, is one of these imported varieties,
while the Spitzenberg comes from
some part of northern Europe, also.
Altogether there are more than 2000
varieties of apples raised in the United
States, and all shades of quality and
6ize arc represented in this long list.
They also represent different times of
the season for ripening, beginning
with the early harvest applos and end¬
ing with (he iale winter varieties.
Some of the excellent winter apples
will keep two years or more, whilo
many of the summer apples decay
inside of a month after ma¬
turity. Tho Newtown pippins sells
the best iai New York, and it is a
favorite brand in thiscouutry. Ollier
varieties that sell well in all the mar¬
kets are familiar to every lover of ap.
pies, sucli as the bell flower, russet,
Baldwin, gravcn9tein, Vandevere,
nonesuch and the greening. Through
grafting and cultivation, the apple
crop lias been improved aud increased
in quantity almost as much as through
the setting-out of additional orchards.
Good large trees now yield from two
to five barrels of salable apples. An
old tree of a good variety that will
produce such a crop nearly every sea¬
son pays the owner a large profit.—

The Cat Nature.
The cat’s spirit of independence,
indeed, is tbo most distinct character¬
istic of her nature. As Mine, de Cus
tine rightly said, the cat’s great differ¬
ence from, and, according to her sen¬
timents, superiority to, the dog lies in
her calm insistence on selection which
invariably accompanies her apparent
docility. To the dog proprietorship
is mastership; lie knows his home,and
lie recognizes without question the
matt who has paid for, feeds, and, on
occasion, kicks him with all the easy
familiarity of ownership. He follows
that man undoubting and unnoticed,
grateful for a word, even thankful
for an oath. But the cat is a creature
of a very different stamp. She will
not eveu stoop to conquer, nor be
tempted out of her nature by offers of
reward. She absolutely declines in.
struction; nay, even persuasion is lost
upon her for any permanent effect it
may be designed to have, You may
be the legal possessor of a cat, but you
cannot govern her affections.— [Heu*

ENGORGED CROP.
Engorged crop in fowls is due to
tho packing of food in the crop, and
is to ho treated in this way: The
skin over the crop is slit for about two
inches, and tho crop then is opened by
a slit made upward and downward,
but not crosswise. The contents of
the crop are then carefully taken out,
and tho wounds closed by drawing the
edges together by thread passed
through in two or three places. These
stitches must be separate ones and tied
with a slip knot to each one, so that
when tho wound heals, the thread
may be drawn out easily, Each
wound is thus closed separately. The
fowl is fed on soft food for a week,
when the wounds will bo healed and
ordinary feeding may be resumed.—
[American Dairyman.
CARROTS FOR HORSES.
Carrots work an unlimitable amount
of good in horses during the winter,
and if yon have a supply on hand the
best way, or one of the best ways, to
dispose of them is to give them to the
horses. They regulate the animal’s
bowels and keep his system open.
They also make his coat shiny. When
any agent psrfovms these functions in
a horse, they cannot help but keep tho
animal in good condition. A queer
fact seems to he that they possess
qualities which no other root or vege¬
table has.
They may be what you would call
an expensive food, yet taking into
consideration the good which they do
they are not so. Of course, tho car¬
rots need not be fed to the horse the
same as you would give them a feed
of corn on the car. Give them two or
threo of the roots every day, or you
can give them this number every
other day if your supply is limited.
But if you have plenty of carrots give
some of them to the horse. — [Ameri¬
can Farmer.
WINTER CAKE OF LAWNS.
Many lawns are injured by being
cut too late or too closoly just before
winter begins, which causes the grass
to winter kill, and the medium be¬
tween leaving so much as to smother
out the finer grasses, or leaving too
little to protect the roots, must be ob¬
served. One way to do this is to con¬
tinue the cutting, but set the mower
so that it will leave tho grass about
two inches high or a little more.
Others protect the roots with a cover¬
ing of stable manure put on when the
ground was slightly frozen, but some
object to that because of its filthy ap¬
pearance whenever the ground is bare,
and its disagrceablo odor whcu first
put on.
They must be careful to leave grass
enough to protect the roots, and then
in the spring apply a top dressing of
some of tho special lawn fertilizers,
which are nearly odorless, and can be
bought in quantities small enougti for
a village lot, or largo enough for a
farm. The better way in using these
is to make one application as soon as
llie ground thaws, and another about
two weeks later, using eacli time
about the amount rccommed by the
manufacturer, and never putting it on
when the grass is wet, unless raining
at the time. — fBoston Culiivator.
Mr.Tiions ov improving SOIL.
When a soil refuses to respond to
the ordinary methods of cultivation
with a remunerative crop it is said to
be worn out or originally deficient in
the elements of plant food. While
either one of these statements may be
true, it is possible for a so-called poor
soil to contain one or more of theso
elements in sufficient quantity if they
were in a proper form to be taken up
aud used by the plants.
This statement suggests a solution
of the often-observed improved con¬
dition of soils arising from mechanical
measures, such asunder-draining, sub
soiling and fall ploughing, or from an
increased fertility through the appli¬
cation of lime, gypsum, salt, etc.,
substances that are commonly sup¬
posed to contribute but little plant
fo >d to the crop in a direct way when
artificially supplied.
In such cases soil fertility which
was inactive seems to be set free and
through ihese agencies made available
to an extent sometimes equalling that
which follows the application of com¬
plete fertilizers. Tims iiutlerdraining
assists by removing water when so
greatly in excess as to be hurtful, aud
at Hie same time lightens ami disinte¬
grates a heavy soil by admitting air to
circuiato through it more freely, de¬
composing It and better titling it for
cultivation,
Rotation of crops is anottier method
of improving a thin soil, for the wants
of crops are so varying that one may
succeed fairly well where another
would be an entire failure. So there
are some crops which, through their
superior ability to acquire sustenance
from the air or from the sub-soil
through their numerous and deeply
penetrating roots, not ouly find sup¬
port for themselves, but when plowed
under add to the fertility the soil nat¬
urally possessed.
It goes without saying that every¬
thing of a fertilizing character which
can be gathered from tho farm, the
stables and tho barnyard, should bo
returned to the cultivated land in its
best form and with the least possible
waste, to make good tho deficiency
caused by removing crops. With all
these and with good husbandry, where
a fifid is cultivated continually com¬
mercial fertilizers may often be re¬
quired and profitably used for certain
crops. — [New York World.
FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.
Store up green poultry food for
winter now.
Use liquid manure for growing
plants ouly.
For market, especially, it is easy to
have too many varieties.
An earth floor is the best for the
duck aud geese quarters.
Push the late chickens and turkeys
so as to market them soon.
In selecting strawberry plants get
none that have borne fruit.
More or less grain becomes a neces¬
sity to the fowls at this time.
A young tree set out in tho site of
an old one surely thrives well.
If well fed, early hatched pullets
should be laying regularly new.
Warmth and a variety of food will
make a considerable difference iu lay¬
ing.
When feeding to fatten it will be
best to feed regularly five times every
day.
Guiueas are great foragers and will
destroy many insects that hens will not
touch.
Any sudden increase in the fertility
of pear trees is almost sure to cause
blight.
Ducks usually lay very early iu the
morning and hence should not be let
out too early.
Nipping the caucs of blackberries
and raspberries should be done now
to ensure a stocky growth.
The Seneca pear ripens soon after
tho Bartlett. It is large and of fine
quality,though not so highly flavored.
Root pruning is good for a thrifty
tree which refuses to bear. It checks
growth and develops fruit buds,which
is needed in such a case.
When picking and packing for mar¬
ket is done carelessly tho results are
rarely satisfacto-y. Care iu these two
rospects is necessary to have the fruit
present a neat appearance.
Whcu the early potatoes are dug se¬
lect out seed for next year’s planting
from tho hills that yield the largest
and best tubers. This is necessary to
keep the seed from running out.
For Hie Love of a Child.
A florist planted a bed of geraniums
in Mr. John Warrington's yard. Ilis
little five-year-old was so delighted
with their beauty that she sat among
them all day, pulling up the plants
and breaking oil' the flowers. She
was supremely happy. She desisted
only when her father caine home to
lake her on a drive. Seeing the flow¬
ers uprooted, lie told the florist to re¬
plant them. Tiiis occurred daily for
a week, when the florist said it was of
no use to koopon planting them if the
child continued to pull them up.
“Well,” said Mr. John Warrington,
quietly, “I propose to pay you for all
tiiis trouble, so what difference does
it make to you? After a while siie
will tire of it, and then they will
grow. But it is the sweetest thing
the world to me to see my baby in the
midst of those flowers and looking so
supremely happy. Why, I wouldn’t
let a thousand dollars stand in Hie
way. And, remarkable to say, the
dear little girl has tended those gera¬
niums and lias a beautiful bed of
them, in spite of ail the florist said.—

world is said to be one at Leeds, Eng¬
land, which is used in tho manufac¬
ture of cotton belting, for machinery.
Its weight is fivo and a quarter
tons, and it will sew through three
incites of the toughest and hardest
materials used in manufacturing
belts. In this monster machine the
needles are each thirteen inches long
and Hie shuttles as large almost as a
small rowboat. The machine has a
double set of works(eo as to sew both
sides of the belt at one “feediug”),
two needles and two shuttles being in
constaut use whenever the machine is
at woik Au attachment similar to
that on the ordinary sewing machine
makes it possible for the operator to
instantly lengthen the stitch from one
eight of an inch to a full three inches,

Syrup *5
Judge J. B. Hill, of the Superior
Court, Walker county, Georgia,
thinks enough of German Syrup to
send us voluntarily a strong letter
endorsing it. When men of rank
and education thus use aud recom¬
mend an article, what they say Is
worth the attention of the public.
It is above suspicion. “ I have used
your German Syrup,” he says, “for
my Coughs and Colds on the Throat
and Lungs. I can recommend it for
them as" a first-class medicine.”—
Take no substitute.
