FARM AND GARDEN. TIMELY TOPICS CONSIDERED IN A PRACTICAL MANNER. Homemade Devices for Tying Com Shocks Which Many Farmers Have Found Use¬ ful, a <1 Which Are Within the Reach of All. Numbered with old time devices for tying corn shocks, still used, however, by many is the one shown in tho cut.

The cord is drawn taut from both ends, and a few turns of the crank suffice. Thrust a small stick into tho shock to hold the crank while twine is tied round the shock, and the work is done. Turn the crank backward, remove the cord from the hook, pull out the rod and proceed to tho next shock. In Rural New Yorker a correspondent tells how to use the tie shown in Fig. 2, which is employed in some sections for binding fodder Ider corn corn at at shucking time. ■ X 3? FIG. 2—FODDER CORN TIE.

Binder twine from is used tlie ties, and old ties tho straw stack tied two together with a loop in one end and a buckle in tho other form a band of convenient length. In tho Fruit Garden/ 1 Plant the strawberry on a perfect level with the surface of the ground, or a little below, never on a ridge or hiU, says Mark W. Johnson, the practical horticulturist aud well known fruit grower. The plant has a tendency to rise up out of the ground. He advises planting eighteen inches apart each way for a small patch. For field culture plant in rows three feet apart and twelve inches apart in the rows. Following are the distances apart for planting the various small fruits, recommended by Mr. Johnson. Plant grape vines eight to sixteen feet apart. Raspberries soil should protected be four feet apart the In mellow and from southwestern sun. Blackberries should be planted four feet apart. Gooseberries thre’o feet apart. Currants three feet apart. Use no fresh manure around the Toots of vines; apply it on the surface. Weevil in Grain. Weevil may be almost if not wholly prevented by thorough cleanliness of the premises where the grain is stored and by occasionally stirring it and exposing it to the light. When possiblo avoid storing grain in bins that have been infested. When it is inconvenient to change the place of storage, fumigate tho granary thoroughly with burning sulphur, or use hot water in places where it can Le ap¬ plied, until the pests ai'e destroyed. If such bins must be used, stir the wheat occasionally and expose it to tho light. For places where fumigation or hot water cannot bo used, dissolve half and a pound of insect powder in alcohol stir it into six gallons of water, and apply in a fine spray. No danger need be appre¬ hended, as it is not poisonous, except to Insects. __ Pyrethvum for Caterpillars. Several years of experience seems to warrant the statement that pyre thrum, or, better still, buliach, is most beneficial for smooth bodied caterpillars, such as cabbage worms and others like them. On the woolly caterpillars it has little or no effect, and is not a sure remedy for beetles, although in confinement there is no trouble about killing them. When worms are secreted in the leaves, or in any difficult place to reach by spray, the bellows, powder, will if strongly applied them with by floating a the usually reach among leaves! Pyrethrum loses its strength by exposure to the air. Buhach is preferable to it when it can be obtained. Digestibility of Corn Fodder. Experiments at the Pennsylvania station, Professor Agri¬ cultural Experiment the digestibility of Armsby, director, on stalks of field corn fodder, that is, the com after the ears are removed, showed that taking the whole growth, cars and all, tho stalks alone contained 37 per cent, of the total digestible matter. The prac tical meaning of this Is that the farmer who grows a field of corn, husks it on tho hill and lets the stalks go to waste, leaves over 87 per cent, of the food value of his crop in the field and contents himself with only 63 per cent, of its whole value A farmers’ institute is to bo held once each month at the North Louisiana Ex¬ periment station, and free transportation railroads has been promised by the local i B Xn%^<^y. children ] X?a:& <»„" tlornea : On# of my was troubled with rheumatism her and bolls for kinds about two rear*.

The harvesting aud storing < t the po¬ tato crop is an important matter, hence hardly practical suggestions on the subject can fail to prove useful. A very com¬ mon mistake is the one of delaying the harvesting Tho of tho tubers dead until too late. copious tops havo been somo weeks, a tho growth of weeds has taken their place, ground has become muddy with autumn rains, aud tho potatoes when thrown out are more or less covered with nud. They are then, muddy as they are, thrown into tho cellar or piled in heaps out of doors, to be covered with straw aud earth as protection against tho freez¬ ing heres cold of winter. Tho mud which ad¬ to them tends to increase tho ten¬ by dency to rot, which is further hastened the warm temperature of the cellar during warm autumn days. A better plan, says Country Gentleman, is to dig tho crop before the full rains have reduced the soil to mud, and if pos¬ sible before tho rot has commenced its work of destruction. For this purpose early Ohio maturing sorts, as for instance tho and Hebron, havo tho advantage over later varieties. Being clean and dry, they may ho placed on a broad slatted floor on tho north or cool side of an out¬ house, so situated that tho air can circu¬ late freely from below and pass up through the .potatoes. They should not be placed in too large masses, so as to obstruct ven¬ tilation. Crops which would rot badly in wet ground, would not seriously suffer if properly treated in this way. In somo unfavorable seasons, when more than half tho crop was rained by rotting when dug, the selected and sound remainder, thor¬ oughly cleaned and placed on such slated floor, has nearly or entirely ceased from lias decay, so that not one bushel iu thirty suffered. It is very important, how- ever, tliat the work he done thoroughly and in the best manner, for if carelessly performed it would bo of comparatively little use. When cold weather approaches tho tubers aro either removed to the cellar intended for them or turned out of doors in heaps or pits. When buried, they must be protected from tho adverse influ¬ ences of light and frost and means of entilation supplied. To return to tho slatted floors. Their effect would he more perfect if tho apart¬ ments of which they form the floor were separate from tho rest of tho building by non-conducting walls, and access to tho outside controlled by shutters to tho win¬ dows. During the'heat of warm days these shutters would be closed, but opened on cool nights for tho admission of cold air. In this way the temperature may bo kept low all tho time, ana the danger of rotting lessened in autumn or winter, and prematura sprouting prevented in the warm weather of spring. These views naturally suggest a storage house such as When many largo growers build. small quantities of potatoes are kept in cellars, aud only for family use, tho authority quoted from suggests that tho vegetable apartment iu which they are stored must be kept separato from all the other apartments—from the one for fruit, or for dairy products, or for furnace coal—and bo so situated that by closing or opening windows a uniformly low tem¬ perature may be secured. A convenient place for storing in cellars is in largo ob¬ long boxes holding twenty bushels, more or less, having slatted bottoms, and raised several inches from the cement floor.* Potatoes do not dry and shrivel so readily should as apples, and the basement not be a wet apartment nor a dirty one. It fs hardly necessary to add that wherever they aro stored, they aro to bo kept from tho light with a thin covering of straw or coarse sacking. Those who would succeed with poto- toes should remember tho ossential requisites of harvesting early before the advent of mud and tho rot, handling care¬ fully to dean prevent and bruising, providing preserving sufficient tho tubers ven¬ tilation, whether In heaps out doors or in cellars or apartments. These remarks are mado rather in the way fixed of suggestion unalterable than rules, as laying down and and we trust they successful may aid young cultivators in the management of their crops. A Famous Prize Stallion. Tho stallion Escamillo, of which Tho illustration English Live Stock description Journal furnishes the and hero given, is a notable example of a fine horse and bred a winner of many premiums. He was in 1882 by Mr. Joseph Pickersgill, from Bonny Mary, sired Middleton. by Pero Gomez, and is owned by Lord 1 ENGLISU STALLION ESCAMILLO. Escamillo’s build is such as to refute the oughbreds objections for often urged Ho against know-n thor¬ farm use. is as one of the shortest legged blood stallions of England, and is so compact as to ap¬ pear smaller than he really is. He has plenty brown of bone, is Escamillo big in tho body 15.3J, and in color. stands and tapes 8J inches below the knee. Saving Seed Corn. The safest way of caring for seed corn is to be sure that it is thoroughly dried in the fall. Then store it in a dry place in a temperature above freezing during winter nud out of reach of mice. Wooden frames covered with wire netting and hung chimney in an attic is or other good place plan. kept warm by a one Here and There.

All through tha east It seems to be tacitly understood that everybody has s right to strike his inferiors, and that it would bo unpardonable presumption In the inferior to strike back or adopt any more self assertive mcasuro than edging away As a general thing in Persia blows aro given and taken with tho bland and childlike philosophy of Kismet. The person who knows himself to bo in the wrong on soaio trilling occasion re¬ ceives a proportionate amount of chas¬ tisement meekly, as being no more than his just desert, even though the party who assumes tlie role of executioner be a casual stranger, acting on the spur of prirna facie evidence. What is the con¬ cern of one seems to be the concern of all; not only the party directly aggrieved, but the onlookers also are very likely to take a band in culling an evil doer. Tlie person who is thus publicly cuffed feels no sense of disgrace. Tho whole matter is regarded most philosophically; having meted out punishment to nn offender, they hobnob with him again on equal terms at once. —Thomas Stevens in New York Sun. “Cycle.” for Army I'te. Tlie recent experiments in employment of “cycles” of various sorts for army use in the spring military exercises in Eng¬ land seem to demonstra'.” the futility of expecting that class of machinery to bo of much practical value for this service. The ascents of long hills had to be made by the cyclist volunteers slowly and with toil on foot, liecause tho machines could not bo ridden; a carriage to bo ridden and worked by four men, and to carry a Maxim gun, broke down utterly; the “Centipede," or flying sapper, a machine on eight wheels, carrying intrenching tool3, engineering appliances and men, broke in two and had to bo abandoned, and there were numerous minor acci¬ dents in only two days’ trials. So long as the operations of war cannot bo con¬ fined to nice, smooth asphalted tiieso floors, and conducted daintily, machines are not likoly to bo worth much among possiblo military a^alianc®. — Now York Sun.
