Strawberry Culture.
J. Henry Mitchell. Fl. Je.up, 1.a.-Please
tell me through your columns iiow to culti
vate strawberries.
1. What kind of soil suits them best.
2. When and how should we begin to pre
pare the ground tor transplanting!
When should t ybe t ransplanted. and
how continue theit cultivation?
4. What \ariety or varieties wou.d be
best adapted to this section of country?
Inswer We cannot und. rial.- to give all
the details of strawberry culture in answer
to a new’spaper inquiry. \\ e could not do
the subject, justice in less than a column
1. Different soils require different varie
ties of strawberries.
2. As soon as jiossible fill the land intended
for si rawberries with vegetable matter in
abundance, such as stable manure or Is
mold, rotten leaves, etc., or sow it in cow
peas and turn under the vines.
3. November is probably the best time to
set them out in your latitude, but. it may
be done any time until March.
•I. For full deta Is of preparatio-a of soil,
varieties, eul: vation we b-g to refer you
to some of the manuals or books on the
subject. Th.- Heor.'ia experiment station,

wthich is almost immediaitcly after the egg
is laid, the .worm makes its way along tho
nasal passages beneath the skin. Some
times they even get into the horns. When
in considerable numbers, the worms cause
the disease among sheep known as ’’stag
gers,” wihilcih is sometimes extremely de
structive. There is no saitisOacitory preven
tative or remedy. Tar rubbed on tlhe noses
or smeared on the wait licks is t.he com
mon jireven’tive. There are always more
or less oif the hots or worms i.u the head
of sheep, but unless present in considerable
numlbens, little or no .harm results.

Irrigation.
J. D. I’.. N-w'ton. Alm. wishes to 'irrigate
six or seven acres by raising water to
the lheiig'ht of sixty to a hundred feet
and conducting it two hundred ami
flftv va.rds. He asks:
1. Hew much water will It take to Irri
gate one acre nine time?
2. ‘Would a br in-lh eighteen inches wide
and six n.ithis dee? furnish wit r enough
t .> run flic m ichine to lift the irrigating'
wat-r for six or seven acres.
Answer. —l. One inch of rainfall is con
sidered a good s-ison. where it falls only
moderately f:i-.t on plowed land. One inch
of ri’n.fall on one acre amounts to about
27. in id gallons- \Ve cannot says what it
would cost to raise water sixty to one hun

To Destroy Cabbage Worms.
T. F. Rowzee. Elberton, Ga.—l want you
to try my plan for destroying cabbage
worms, and if it proves a success you can
give it to the people as you sc- tit. I sent
ii to Tho ('onstitution once, but it was so
little- the people treated it with contempt.
<>n a still morning before .sun up. with
donl.lo-barreled shotgun shoot twice in op
posite directions, along the side of the cab
bage, then wait two or three days and
look for worms.
There is no morning so still that smoke
from a, gun will not drift. You will see
that tho smoke drifts across t.he cabbage.
Hold the gun near the ground on a level.
I can’t tel| the whys or wherefores, nev
ertheless it works w-H for me, and if it
does well for you, let me hear from you,
with the thing explained if possible. The
si’ooting must bo done from time to time
as Iho worms aj-pi ar.
Answer—Wo do not remember the pre
vious publication of tho plan, .and wo have
no worms <->f consequence on cur cabbage,
and. therefore, cannot make a satlsf.u-tory
experimental test of the < fii.-acy of tho
treatment. We have no doubt that one or
nmro of the gass-. g-n.rati-l in th' burn
ing of gunpowder would prove a go.id in
secticide. Th.? prim ip.il gaseous product
gem rate.) js potassium sulphide, which is
sometimes used as an insectielde, tho drug
stores selling it under the nam- of “liver
of sulphur.” We presume the firing of the
gun lias nothing to do with th- effect, • x
e-pt. ns a means of burning the guiqsjwder.
Will some one try it and report.

SOME STORIES OF THE WAR
An Old Cat and Her Exploits During
the Siege of Atlanta in the
Late War.
For Tho Constitution.
The organization of “relief societies” In
dicates that tim ladies are getting a little
enthused, and when they do then we may
look for a war sure enough.
The work on this line reminds us of tho
“Wayside Homes” in the days of the con
federacy. We had forgotten these homes
till tho organization of these relief socie
ties brought them to mind. Every old con
federate will remember these wayside
1:< nies and what, a blessing they were in
their day. There was a splendid one in
Atlanta and at all the great railroad points,
but the best one, according to the talk of
those days, was at Macon. The mission of
these homes was to receive the soldiers,
sick and wounded, and give them a place
to sle.p and something to cat when tho
bad schedules of those flays threw them to
lav over. But for these homes thousands
would hav.- suffered, but as tin y w- r.- run
every- old soldier felt at home there and
they proved one of the greatest blessings.
El.e.illy did th. “wayside hum” at
Macon do a great part. Tho trans-Missis-
Fppi <l. partment covered all the country
west of tho Mississippi river and there
vs rn. more communication between this
side ::nd tliat than there will bo between
us now and some country held by tho
gp t . . “homes” ma lc it a spe-
cial pl-asur. to take earn of soldiers on
this side who were entirely < ut off from
th<- r friends and home, and the people of
M.’ieon being < specially active on this line,
. ar. , d much praise to be given tile city,
and I v< nture that it is most lovingly Te
rn, inhered Dll y-t by thousands who re
ceived th.- kind attentions tor which these
bonus were instituted.
Besides these “homes” at every proml
n< nt railroad point, there w. re bands of
women that me: . very- train at almost all
th.- towns. When th, Haiti stopped at al
most any slation. provisions and water
was passed into the ears, and it was a g d-
s. n.l to tho soldier and a sacrifice by the
women w 1 < h has nevi r be< n forgot t< n
and never will 1... till the. last man that
wore the gray has passed over the river.
These a- ts of the noble confederate wonn tl
can n. v. r b>- appreciat. <1 by those who
never f. It the .str. ss of those .lays. All
through Georgia, 'l’i nnt-ssr-e. Alabama, and
the Carolinas these "homes" exist.-I and
the enstom of Hie women to tm. t the
trains was lo pt going, but Virginia sur
passed t!" ni all and everything. Never
will an old confederate forget tho women
of Virginia. They nev.-r tire I, and from
the I" ginning to the end tin y never saw
the day that they would not share taeir
last crust with Hm .soldier. 1 verily believe
that there n<v-r v is such people in any
land as the people of \ irginia during that
w T -and every confederate sold - r will
b-.ir me out. When the battle raged
around Richmond Hi- women crowd-.i tho
Streets doing Whatsoever th.-v could. All
their Im-n was I rn up for bandages, they
till. .1 bu.-ki Is With Water that the soldier
might dip a cup as he marelied. sausages
v.’eie handed to men as they double-quicked
through the town, th s- and many, many
other good deeds w.-r<- performed and never
lagged tliroiigli all the war. At that tim ■
there was not so n: ;. h organization as
t!-r- is now, but th-- work ,f the "sisters
oi . hariiy” through those years shoiwed us
what organization can do and I am glad to
sc.- it begin, though I have >-v- r claimed
that there v. , to., many societies.
As " ’ along preparing :o ake care,
oi th- soldiers there Is especially one other
class th:' "hott’J be r- in.-tuber, d. I mean
tl..- poor moth, is with little children.
It 1.., not com- to th. point tha- many of
tl ■ poox women with little children are
comp. llvd to b. KT; al.me, but th.- time m ly
come, ami jierhaps you could find a few
nun if ymt v, ill took- no doubt there are
some in Atl.nn i, and they should be given
your most lu\,:ig attention. I .at. tell vou
that war is i.ai.l on poor wom.-n left : lone,
■ : ...... .... : ; lever Will
r.ceive th.- attention that Choy should.
Tin re is no excitement for these w..ni. r -
they mm t remain at their ho .ml take
.are of the children, and it Is they that
will need v.mr attention much more than
does the soldi, r ’ll .10 held. This is a
pr.at governm.m:, and It will f.’.d and
re of its soldiers; but the poor wo
rn n will <lraw no rations, tti.-re will lie
t. hospitals for them, ami there will be
n ichtj 1 '.tie honors lor metii in the
wind up.
1 . in i. .k most intelligently on the hard
sl.!;.- of women left alone in war times,
f .r I knew mil. 11 of their home lite in the
■ lai s of th d- ti< ;,. I call to me d
a I Ight 1 spent in tim heat of July, 1V,3.
’I 'I" hot u was blow a from tii.- h.ms.- of my
m-.irest neighbor, and this was a signal
i hat help was m . del. There w« re m g
fen whit im II al home, ami I kn-w this
born lias I • ii.g ; ound. d by a lorn- woman.
Ml. n 1 i.rriv.d I found th- mother weep
ing and a |.r. tty little girl very near to
death. I ■ it would not have been so
hard upon ihe moth-r bo: for the memories
that the little girl st.irted by her apeals:
".Mamma, do tell p I pa to come to ids
little Amm -he b so si.-k. so sick.”
So it went for all t night, the mother
lie.-ping and ti.e little ..ill
“Do come, papa, do come, your little
Anna is so siek.”
Th- do.-t >r eame and said that Anna had
ty| . aid fever, and would linger for a iong
■ nn-. Tlie mother wrote to the soldier
f.i Iter, then in Virginia, and told him nil
the -tori how the little girl was so siek
and ..f how she called for him. Th" father
tr;.-d hard for a furlough but tt could not
I- bad, .iml his little Anna di.-.1. nev.-r
understanding why her papa did not come.
\\ ha’ tb it poor mo her suffer--d .ann- v. r
l>. nn -.sured by words, but she was but
little thought of in the great bustle and
excitement of tiie war. Let the poor wo
men of this war have inueh of our consid
eration she cannot got too much.
Wail.' I was reading about Hi.- advance
upon Santi.'.go, a thousand memories rush
ed upon m. to recall th- advance of the
army upon Atlanta. It was a little strange,
Im a.- 1 cont.-mp! ted Hie tie- ng of the
m irds IT- in the Cuban elty, tile blazing
of hou."'-s and th.- tumbling of walls, at
every turn there came to me as fresh as

Th.? fire had driven this old cat

through Hie crowds with a k tin in her
mouth, then to return and appear again
with another kitten, that tlie fire-fighters

km-ii what became of them, but 1 am sure
there was never a braver tight than the
tight she made to save her young.

INTERESTING DATA
ON POISONOUS PLANTS.
The division of botany of the i.-mtional de
partment of agriculture lias just issued a
iH-at little pamphlet by -Mr. V. K. ('hesnut,
dealing with the various poison plants ot
the United States.
One of tin- species treated of. poison sumac,
i.s of particular interest to the readers of
The Constitution. On February 22d Inst
The Constitution published a report of the
poisoning of the family of one B. S. .Mc.Mul
b-n at Tucker, Ga. The local experts at
tributed the poisoning to a substance - ailed
t-hunderwood, which is ol rare occuri• ne-
In this state. The accounts of the unusual
nature of the poisoning induced the botani
cal division to send on cne of its assistants,
V. K. Chesnut, who, after a. thorough in
vestigation and conversation with Mr. Mc-
Mullen and the people who have been liv
ing in the neighborhood of Tucker for j i-ars,
announces that thunderwood Is identical
with the poison sumac (or rhus vernix) of
tho north. The plant is thus described:
“A shrub or small tree, six to cighte-n
feet In height, with long pinnate leaves,
having from sei ■ n to thirteen smoothly pol
ished It atlets. It is also commonly known
as 'poison dogwood.’ poison ash’ and 'poi
son elder.’ The. other poisonous sumac,
rhus mlchntixii, is a rare shrub, recently
rediscovered In North Carolina.”
The remainder of tho treat se. Is fully as
interesting. Poison Ivy or oak Is enumerat
ed as one of t-he most common and best
recognized forms of injurious shrub. Ju
speaking of the history of this plant and the
b.-st m.-ans for relief from its poison. .Mr.
Chesnut says:
“Poison ivy has long been regarded by th”
ignorant with a degree of aw. ik n to s 1
perstltlon. No one was able to tell how
it produced its .-ff.-ts n-i why it attack
ed some people and not ot ur, . Mysterious
principles were relied upon to .-xpl .ln tho
phenomena and up to the present time the
common belief has been tliat the pc-isonous
t uen t wa: ri ■ ‘ - m from
the plant. In the latter part of the last
century it was so regarded by tho expert;
then, as our knowledge of plant ch- nnstry '
advanced step by step. It was attributed
mor.- cc.ncretely to a speclllc. gas. 11 volatile
alkaloid and a volatile a. id like formic i
a- id. Mor" recently still ba-’leri t hav.- been
accused of causing t:e affection. Experi
ments have seemed to verify these ld< is in I
turn, but the falsity of all has at last b- - 11 I
proved bv the discovery of a more tangible 1
compound. In January, is: ’., Dr. Franz j
Pfaff, of Harvard university, announced j
that the poison is in r- ili'y a no:i-volatile ,
ell. Numerous experiments line lie.-n per- I
formed with th-- ; urifi> -1 oil .ind it lias b> eil ,
shown to produce exactly the satn.- . lle-ets
as the plant itself. Dr. Pfaff has called this |
gubstam ■ ‘toxii o lendrol? It is so ind in all '
parts of t-he plant, even in the wood after |
long drying. Bike all oils, it Is Insoluble I
in water and therefore cannot be washed
from the .-kin with water alone. Al.-uiiol
di >lves it readily. Alkalies saponify It,
and thus render it inert, but this result is I
mor< easily obtained by xun alcoholic solu
tion of the sugar of lead (lead acetate). |
Num- rous experiments show that v. lien the
smallest amount of this oil is atqdied to
Die skin it is v- ry gradually absorbed in the
coin se of a few days and that within eer- '
tain limits the longer it remains upon Do
skin the greater will be the effect pro
duced”
