fc EJ a m r ifv) Lit feed the soil wit humus. A requisite of good preparation of the soil is to have plenty of vegetable matter in it. This is generally se¬ cured by turning under cowpeas, or green crops of any kind, or using leaf mold or barnyard manure. Veg table matter makes a soil porous, fri easily worked, resistant * of able, drouths. This vegetable matter called humus absorbs and retains the food prepared in the soil by the action of the air and heat, and gives jt off to the plants as required. It warms the soil, adding frequently several degrees of heat, and it facili¬ tates the condensation of moisture from the atmosphere in dry periods. More vegetable matter is especially important where the texture is so fine as to prevent the free circulation of water, and water stands upon the surface or in the soil so long that it is an injury to plants.—Progressive Farmer. DEUTZIA. Deutzia crenata candidissima is a splendid shrub, .which comes into flower when the syringas are on the wane. During severe winters it is sometimes killed back severely, but it soon recovers from this, and for shrubbery use or as an individual lawn specimen it is excellent. It is also well adapted for cutting and the double pure white flowers are service¬ able for design work. In fact, any florist doing a retail trade should cer¬ tainly have one or two plants in his shrubbery. This variety is of erect and more vigorous habit than Lem oinei or gracilis, attaining a height of eight to ten feet. It will thrive well in any good garden soil. The variety Pride of Rochester is double white, but has the back of the petals tinged with rose, while D. crenata florepleno rosea has one or two of the outer rows of petals rosy purple in ;olor.—Indianapolis News. GROWING BEANS. All varieties of the bean are sensi¬ tive to the cold, and should not be planted until ground has thoroughly warmed. The bean will usually thrive on any good corn land and may be successfully grown on soils not rich enough to produce t^e best growth of corn. They may be planted with an ordinary corn drill, the distance apart to be adjusted to suit the habit of growth of the plant, but usually from thirty inches to three feet between the rows, and from two to six inches in the drills. With the navy bean a fair yield is fifteen to twenty bushels to the acre, but some varieties will excel this yield. The cultivation is the same as that for corn, except that the vines should not be disturbed when wet with dew. In the bean districts of New York a spe¬ cial machine is now used for lifting the beans when mature. A fertilizer for beans should carry phosphorus and potassium. Nitrogen is usually not needed in any large quantity. A good proportion would he about one per cent, nitrogen, ten per cent, phos¬ phoric acid and four per cent, potash. —Charles FI. Thorne, Director Ohio Experiment Station. dwarfing standard trees. In response to an inquiry in the Country Gentleman on the subject of dwarfing standard apple trees George I- Powell, of New York, who has had experience with the process says: The old type of two and three story apple trees will have to give way to new and more modern meth¬ ods of propagation, culture and gen¬ eral management of orchards. This is forced upon fruit growers by the general spread of the San Jose scale, oy the high price of labor and by the Remand 1 or a for few high-grade at Orchard fruit.

It acts pleasantly and naturally and truly as a laxative, and its component parts are known to and approved by physicians, as it is free from all objection aide substances.

And what is the apparatus by which he produces his humorous effects? Stories about funny colored men, and the old, old device of applying scrip¬ tural phrases and references to our own modern conditions—these consti¬ tute his chief repertory in laughter producing devices, though sarcasm, an old weapon in his arsenal, and a modi¬ fication of his old trick in phrase¬ making, are occasionally employed. The stories about colored men are by no means mew, and the form of the biblical applications isn’t always a credit to the humorous sense, but the audience invariably roars.
