will pro luce a strain that will give a cab

cabbage seed in a haphazard way from
different seed growers or dealers it is a mat

what he wants or thinks he is getting. In

IN FIELD AND GARDEN.
Thoughts i pDropriate to the Season
Successful gardening cannot be carried
on in a ireadmill rotation, said E. P. Roe.
Cast iron rules cannot be successfully laid
down. Tnere are a multitude of varying
circumstances to alter cases. The labor of
the year is, t-> a great extent, a game of

facilitate the early farm oporatio . And
then, too, what a time for thought and
reading in the seas n of winter. Many
co tend that the labors of the farmer dur
ing the working seasons are too arduous
and exhausting for ineptal activity—f r
study and profound, Continued thought.
This is probably true< f some kirwtsnf iaoor,
but there is much of the labor now per
formed by farmers thmu h the aid of
machinery that is not very exhausting, ad
affords only nr derate exercise which is con
ducive to thought. While the fßranr
should employ a portion of the winter season

calling, eepec ally, still be should, not for
get to direct his "intellect to planning and
contriving for his business so that every
thing will be in apple-pie order for the
labor of the coming y ar.
A recent writer remirks that In view o f
the progres. and developments in agricult
ure it has now become absolutely necessary
for the intelligent farmer to keep himself
posted thoroughly therein.
We know that the co6t of a well-supplied
agricultural library, or even of the larger
publications separately, is an impediment if
not a barrier in t o way of a great muny,
but, happily for all, many valuable periodi
cals a e published weekly and monthly in
all sections of the country especially de
voted to the interests of the firmers and
gardeners, and at such modern e rates that
few, if any, engaged in t ie cultivat.on of
the soil can honestly declare iheir inability
to meet the sma.l outlay necessary to secure
the decided lienefi.sthat sucn jour ah bnug
to them so eng .ge l.

gestion hereaud t ere that will be wortu to

adapted to his drcunis.aaces.
Many believe that commercial fertilizers
are only stimulants, says Prof. Jordan.
Nothing can be more absurd than such a
notion. Such fertilizers turnish true plant
iood just as surely as does the best yard
manure ever hauled into tee field.
There are so no obvious reasons why this
statement can be confidently made:
1. The compounds in farm manures that
feed plants a. e the same comp unds that
commercial fertilizers furnish to the a ul.
Does it make any difiere ce to the plant
whether it gets phosphate of lime or potash
from commercial fertilizer or from sub.e
manure!
2. Plants have been grown to perfection
in water solutions aud in the most barren
quar.z sand by the use of compounds tha
enter into commercial fertilizers, the e com
pounds being the only sources of fcod the
piants had. Can a child grow on alcohol
alone! and can a plant teed on that wuich is
only a stimulant to the son! Still further, the
analysis of plant tissue shows tuat a com
plete commercial fertilizer is capable of
furnishing all the more important sub
stances found there excepting what the
plant takes from the air.
The late Dr. George Wood, President of
the Americau Phil isopbical Society, noticed
tnat his peach trees after producing a few
crops stopped bearing and died in a few
years. Believing that their and ath resulted
from the borers near the root of the tree he
put into operation apian for their destruc
tion. He dug holes five or six inches deep
at the base of the tree, scooped away all
the borers that could be found, and then
filled up the holes with unieached wood
asties which, of course, was very rich in
potash. TuiB was done during the winter,
ad the result next spring was astonishi g.
The trees appea ed to nave been restored 10
all their early vigor and freshness—put
toith bright green leaves and blossomed
freely ad bore a heavy crop of fruit.
This is an excellent plan, and the most
practical one to be followed in the orchard
for the destruction of the borers. YVnile
the trees are still young, the soil -hould be
drawn away from tne stem almost down tj
the roots, and this should be done as early
in the winter as practicable, so as to get the
benefit of the fn s.s and freezes. In January
or Febr a y bank tue ashes about the
stems, packing them into a cone six or
eig.it inches high. Later on throw the
soil back to the trees, filling up the holes
entirely. This is practical and profitable
work in the orchard, and sho id be more
generally followed by those who are at
tempting fruit growing. The borer must
be cii cum vented if success would be se
scured.
The Use of Land Plaster.
Land plaster is the cheapest and most
abundant of all our commercial fertilizers,
and on most lands, and for many crops, it
is the most effective, says the American
Cultivator. In many parts of the country
it is used extonsively by the farmers, where
its true value is appreciated, but in other
sections it is to be regretted that its merits
are not pro; erly uderstood by the farmers.
When land plaster can be had at first bad
it will pay the farmer to purchase it direct
from the quarry. The two leading vn ie
ties of laud plaster are known respectively
a3 the Cayuga and the Nova Scotia. B th
of these have their virtues, and, while the
one is black and the other light, there is no
doubt that the question to be decided by
the farmer is one of purity rather than that
of color.
Land plaster, called also gypsum, isabun
dant in different parts of this country, and
it is sent here from Nova So tia often as
ballast for the vessels. It can thus be ob
tained very cheaply. The pilaster is a sul
phate of lime, which is quite common in
certain sections of the cou try, would thus
not be much benefited by on application of
gypsum, while on the contrary those soils
deficient in these mineral elements would
be greatly improved. Like wise a great deal
depends on the pla its, some plants requir
ing more of these elements than others for
thi-ir proper growth.
Taking the soils first we find that gypsum,
or land pilaster, does the greatest amount of
good on soils which are naturally deficient
in mineral elements. In lowland meadow
soil, where the vegetable material c mposes
a large part of the soil, land plaster would
perform wo; dors. Such soils are naturally
crying for mineral elerneuis so essential to
the gro w to of plants; but on heavy clay
soils, coal, s ate or sandstone gravel the de
mand for gypsum is n t so great. But gyp
sum has a peculiar prdperty about it which
makes it beneficial to soils independent of
its fertilizing qualities. It is a great ab
sorbent of water and ammonia, which
makes it an almost indispensaole article for
soils during dry season.-. It bus the power
of storing up the water Instead of letting it
leach thi ough and escape, ad during ex
tremely dry seas ms it will bold, this mois
ture iu readiness for the plants to take. In
this way land plaster benefits every kind of
soil to which it is applied.
The plants that derive profit from gypsum
include all known to the agi iculturist, but
some more tnan others profit by the fertil
izer. Clover stands at the head of the list
as one responding quickly to the application,
and it will often make all the difference be
tween a good and a bad c op of clover
whether t..e gypsum hAs been applied. Gvp
sum will thus be f u id to be the founda
tion of all good farming, for the agricult
urist that can grow go and crops of clover
cannot fail to improve bis farm and raise
gi oi crops of other plants. Clover makes
the rich soil, and the rich soil produces e <od
cropxi of grains and other p.ant-. Fertilizers

plowed under will do more good than arti
ficial fertilizers. One bm.dred pounds cf
land plaster to the acre, sown broadcast,
will prevent a clover patch from being
burnt up by a dry spell, and 200 pounds
spire ad ovir the fields beforehand will give
the clover a spilendid start. It mav be sown
at seedn g-time, or she i the plants are up,
but the former method, seems preferable,
for It will then enable the plants to get a
good catch. Gypsum is thus mad ■ the
foundation of a g od crop of clover, and if
the you g crop is threatened by a dr< ught
gyp uni can come in as a top-dressing.
Even dui ing ve. y severe and < ughts laud plas
ter wiil avert direful calamity in tha clover
field if applied early enough.
Next to cl iver come the other grass, tim
othy. blue gra-s nd alfalfa, all of ■ hich
are grea ly benefited by an application of
lad plaster, either at the timj of see '.lug
or later as a top-dressing. Rye never
fails to respo and qu.ckly to an application of
plaster. The plater also holds forth is
water reservo.rs to these pilants as well dur
ing dry seasons, ad it thus becomes a great
prevention to failure of crops.
O rn is greatly improved by land plaster,
whether it is applied as a top-dressing, sc it
tered broadcast over the fields at seeding
time, or when placed in the hils. But in
this latter way it will some imes burn up
the corn or iot it. For this reason, if it is
desired to put it in the bills, it is better to
wait until the corn is up, and then apply it
around the plants on top of the hills. It
may be used in the same way for potatoes,
aud the same rules apply for this crop.
Land plaster does not enter directly into
the composition of plants to any great ex
tent, but it i as mechanical and chemical
! roperties which make it invalu ble. It
prepares the vegetable matter already in
the soil f r the plants to take up, and in ad
dition absorbs and holds m listure dui ing
dry seasons. Probablv the best use to which
laud plaster can be put is to mix large
quantities of it with the stable manure
heap. It will make the manure ready for
use in early spring, and it will be so well
rotted that the i.eap can be aim st pene
trated to the bottom with a shovel. In local
ities w here gyusum can be obtained for a
fe-v dollars per tou, this work shou and not
be neglected. It wll prove a great buiefit
to the manure heap, and convert many
farmers to a stronger belief in the effl acy
of land plaster. W. E. Farmer.
Manuring the Orchard.
A. D. 8., in Rural Home, offers the fol
lowing thoughts oa the subject: It is
claimed by some that placing fertilizers near
a tree, young or old, is injurious to it. We
think that in planting trees a g od sized ex
cavation should be filled with soil having
manure well incorporated with it; and that
the tree should be planted In tuts the follow
ing spring. We do not think it proper to
pile up manure, as some do, on top of the
ground about the body of the tree. What
fertilizers are u ed after plan ing eh uld be
kept away from the body of tbe tr e. This
cau-es the l oots t. spread in search of food,
and the tree is thus invigorated, ad
same as the mind is invigorated and
strengths ed by sea c dug for that which is
not to be Lad without searching. The
orchard should be cultivated as long as it
lives, and in doing this tbe soil is kept in
such a condition t at there is not tbe dan
ger of losing the manure after application
by washing that thers is when tne laud is
not cultivated.
Probably early in the spring is the best
time to apply manure to the orchard. The
tree then begins consuming it when it be
gins growing in tbe spring, and therefore
has has an advantage of those manured
later. The question of what kind of fertil
izers to use now confronts us. Wnen there
is an abundance of manure about tbe farm
:t seldom pays to buy commercial fertilizers
for any crop, but the o are css s w. en re
sort must be made to commercial fertilizers;
therefore, the average i hetnical composi
tion of tbe most avai able of the f rtilize.s
is of importance to you aud will be given.
Those containing a large percentage of pot
ash s.tou dbe chosen. Potash is tne most
valuable elemrnt that can be anplied to ihe
orchard. Varieties cau be brought up by
tho use of potash as a fertilizer. The use
of potash ii creases the acid. The Massa
chusetts station says tbar ihe application of
potash was followed by an inc ease of the

Sugar largely adds to the vaiue of the fruit

it has a chemical value of about $63 per ton.

has a chemical value of about SIOO per ton.
Saltpetre waste from gunpowder works is
composed of 2.45 per cent, of nitrogen and
18 per cent, of potash, and it has a chemical
value of about $29 per ton. Doubles ilphate

Kainit is about 13.50 per cent, potash, and
its chemical value is sl2 per ton. Tobacco

worth one-fifth as much as unleached

Caro of Pigs.
When pigs are very young, says Western
Rural, they need a deal of care and atten
tention as well as the sow. The sow should
be fed very epariugly for the first we-k, and
the fcod increased acc rding to the de
mands made upon her by the ucklu gs,
which at the nge of two weeks may ba
taught to eat light food and drink sweet
milk. It is usually c>’ sideredthat the first
four weeks of the pig’s life is the time to
make it develop its natural form. If stunted
at this time it will likely show it, or at least
it will be behind its mates. The e are
many things to be considered a pig-feedirg.
At this age, stuffing on concentrated or
heavy food is dangerous, as the pigs are
tender and liab e to many ailments; while
we desire to obtain fast growth, excessive
fat is not desirable, but rather injurious to
health. For this reason I prefer light food,
such as g ound oats, shorts, bran aud but
little maze, a lot of grass or other green
food, with plenty of exercise. Never give
the food s ur. Feed at regular hours. A
little practice w ilt soon tell you just how
much to give. Never give more at a time
than the pigs eat up clean, and allow plenty
of fresh water at all times. Provide
shade as well as dry sleeping placis lu sum
mer.
Extra Liability to Malarial Infection.
Persons whose blood is thin, digestion weak
and liver sluggish, are extra-liable to tbe at
tacks of malarial disease. The most trifling
exposure may, under such conditions, infect a
system which, if healthy, would resist tbe
miasmatic taint. T only way to secure
immunity from malaria in localities where it is
prevalent is to ton ad regu ate the system
by improviug weakened digestion, enriching
tne blood, and giving a who esome impetus to
biliary sec etion. these results are accom
plished by nothing so effectively as Hostetler's
StornacT Bitters, which long experience has
proven to be the most reliable-afegua and against
lever and ague and kindred diaord rs as well as
the best remedy for them. The Bitters are,
moreover, an excellent invigorant of the organs
of urination, and an ac.ive and -parent, eliminat
ing from the blood those ac.d impurities which !
originate rheumatic ailments. — Adv.
