BUNCHING BY DRAIN TILES SEND POTATOES TO MARKET Crop Should Be Graded and Packed In Barrel* as Soon aa Possible After Dug. Potatoes, although one of the most Important of our truck crops, are usually badly handled by the average grower. Instead of being sent to market In bulk by the wagon load, po­ tatoes should be graded and packed In barrels. The packing should be done as soon as posible after they are dug, for if exposed too much to the sun they will become soft and the skin will tturn green. N It is a very good plan to grade and pack potatoes in the field as they are lifted, although when very large crops Are grown and it is desirable to grade thera more carefully, this can be done better by first sending them to the packing shed, where they can be run through graders and the work done score rapidly. It is Just as important to grade potatoes as fruit or any other vegetables. Early potatoes should be shipped in barrels with holes cut in them for ventilation, and covered with burlap. Poorly Packed Potatoes. The barrels should be frequently •haken while being packed, in order to settle the contents firmly, beeause feeing heavy, otherwise they will be «ure to arrive at market, after long­ distance hauling, in very bad condi­ tion. SOIL SICKNESS IN GARDENS •Liberal Dressings of Freshly Ground or Slaked Lime W!H Prove an Excellent Tonic. (By W, R. GILBERT:) Complaints are common from com­ paratively small and constantly crop­ ped gardens anent the poorness of the produce. Even such a thing as a cab­ bage is so faint-hearted as to run away on lanky legs as no well-behaved cabbage should. * All this is very annoying to those iwho take infinite pains with their gar- fdens and go to some expense in get­ ting reliable seeds. All this may occur, and does occur, where ample tnanure of the barnyard is applied to keep the soil in fertile condition. It Is in fact a kind of soil sickness pwhich ordinary manure cannot over­ come, but actually aggravates. One sees far less of this In large gardens for the simple reason that the larger area gives a much wider range and rotation of cropping, yet even here comparisons may often be drawn be­ tween the produce of the large areas and vegetables under field cultivation to the distinct advantage of the latter. There is fortunately an antidote, for freshly ground or freshly slaked lime Is an antidote for this. In liberal -dressings it will prove a quick and lasting tonic to the sick soil, and not only should this be administered when spring opens, but as far as possible dressed through crops of cabbage and similar things during a dry day and lightly hoed In. When lime can be readily obtained In the best condition there Is really no «xcuse for the bad state of things de­ picted, and even if an extra price has to be paid it is still the cheapest be­ cause the only satisfactory thing for the purpose, and whatever may be spent in ordinary manure, if expended on time for several seasons would -work wonders. Doctors differ over the value of freshly ground lime, and the virtue of the newly slaked article, the ultra caustic properties of the former being by many considered an advantage. With that I agree, but consider the advantage is only temporary as with exposure to the air the slaking is thoroughly in evidence. iVlsst Important Part of Producing Good Celery Is to Have Plants -Firm and Tender. Blanching Is a very Important part of producing good celery; because, un­ less the plants are white, firm and tender, they are not only unpalatable for the farmer's family, but are, of course, unsalable. Excluding the light induces a solid growth in the heart of the plant and this growth' is very rapid. It also turns a plant from green to pure white. Some growers blanch their celery by placing over the plants a section of ' 6IRL IN MAN'S CLOTHINS FOUND WORKING AS BARB Blanching by Drain T!lea. iiaiB tile and COvefiQg up the top Witi a coarse cloth or litter. Persons contemplating growing cel­ ery for the market should not attempt to do so until they have visited one of the large commercial celery gardens and learned from observation exactly how the work of seeding, transplant­ ing, cultivating and marketing Is done. But the farmer who simply desires to grow enough celery for his family use, may, if he follows instructions, grow good crops, always providing that his soil is very rich and well drained. PROTECTING THE HAY STACK Excellent Method la Shown by Acconv . panylng Illustration--Is Quite Inexpensive. A little wire fence, as shown in the illustration will save its cost 50 times «very season and allow stock to run In lnclosure where hay or other grain Is stacked. Use strong wire fence Saving Hay Stack. netting and fasten to posts of 2 by 4 and put these securely in the ground. When not in use the fence can be rolled If sad put away. Shelling Beans. After beans reach the stage for shelling they mature quickly. Keep a sharp lookout that some are not wasted before you ar^ aware. The little white field beaUjure especially prone to scatter th«?!r%eeds as soon sa the pods become dry. LIGHTNING RODS ARE CHEAP It Is Mistaken Idea to Think That They Do Not Protect Buildings --Wire Fence Danger. It Is a mistake to believe that lightning rods do not protect build* ings. They do when properly put up and no farmer can afford to go with­ out tueui unless he chooses to carry his own Insurance. In any case the cost of lightning rods is so small com­ pared to the protection they give that it Is doubtful whether it is good poll- cy to take any risks without them. Of course we cannot put lightning rods on hay and grain stacks but we can put the hay and grain In our barns aM protect the buildings with lightning rods. Speaking of lightning, all danger of death' to farm animals coming in contact with fence wires heavily charged may be avoided by attaching a wire to the strands of the fence for two or three hundred feet, running one end of It into the ground about four feet deep. This will afford an outlet for the electricity and render the wire fences as safe as any other. KNOWN AS J1MMIE, SHE WON PRAISE FOR HER 4KfLL ( WITH RAZOR. " -- r*' Newark, N. J.--Persons who have been going regularly for the last few weeks to the barber shop of Sebastian Salano, In No. 615 Springfield avenue, this city, to get shaved and sham­ pooed, got a surprise the other day when they learned the young man known to them as "Jlmmle," whose chair they all sought because his touch with the razor was so light, was Mary de Marco, an Italian girl. Her hair had been cut short and she wore a natty blue serge suit with such grace that her disguise was perfect and none suspected she w as a vomtiQ masquerading in a man's clothes. The young woman might have kept up her disguise for many weeks more NEWS NUGGETS FROM ILLINOIS Guard Against Lightning. It is a mistake to believe that light­ ning rods do not protect buildings. They do when properly put up, and no farmer can afford to go without them unless he chooses to carry his own insurance. In any case, the cost of lightning rods is so small compared to the protection they give that it is doubtful whether it is good policy to take any risks without them. Of course, we cannot put lightning rods on hay and grain stacks, but we can put the hay and grain in our barns and protect the buildings wl)h light­ ning rods. Speaking of lightning, all danger of, death to farm animals coming in con-; tact with fence wires heavily charged may be avoided by attaching a wire to the strands of the fence for 200 or 300 feet, running ons Gud of it into the ground about four feet deep. Thjs will afford an outlet for the electricity and render the wire fences as safe as any other. Gathering Tomatoes. Pick the tomatoes before soft. Han­ dle carefully. See that they are not bruised. Clean with care, and wash if necessary. Remove stems which will Injure other tomatoes by punctur­ ing. Make two or three grades Throw away, feed to chickens or make catsup of the culls. Pack in clean packages, well filled and not topped off. Honest packing pays. W-4 ii wi%.^ I ^• X Let posterity nelp pay for the roads. The log drag Is the best dirt road maker. For successful rotation clover should be one of the crops. Careful breeding is the foundation of the best results In bee keeping. Ott the farm, the best time to do a thing is Just before It Is needed. Letting weeds go to seed means that you are laying up trouble for next year. If dry weather sets In do not neglect to stir the soil and mulch. This is Im­ portant. Curing honey simply means a proper evaporation of the water it contains. Adjust the knives of the lawn mow­ er to cut within two inches of the roots of the grass. Although the watermelon is a suc­ culent fruit, wet is more damaging to it than drought Half the plants which refuse to grow for amateurs are starved to death or killed by kindness. Manure will not waste as much fertility In the field as It wil> in the iveiage farm barnyard. Cabbage and all other planU of th* cabbage family require a very fertile and cool, moist soil for good growth. Carrots are splendid for folks who need iron in their blood. One of th* best ways to get it Is to eat these nice roots. - Sunshine, rainfall and temperature are three Important factors in canta­ loupe culture beyond the control of the grower. 1 If your beet rows are too thick, pull out some and boll them for greens. Nothing better la tks warl* (or this our pose. Working ss a Man. without ll&lano's customers being any the wiser had not the police got wind of the case and exposed the trick by arresting the barber and his girl as­ sistant, whose skill with the razor was increasing his business dally. The police also arrested Albert Rosso, an­ other barber, of No. 318 Sixteenth avenue, who was Implicated by the young woman. The trio were arraigned before Magistrate Yuill In the Fourth pre­ cinct court and there the story came out of how the young woman had been forced to work in the barber shops of both men. She told the magistrate she lived in Irvlngton, and made the acquaintance of Rosso through Sa­ lano. Two months ago Rosso invited her to go with him to Maplewood, she asserted. The young woman al­ leges she was drugged and when she regained her senses she discovered her hair had been cut off and she was dressed in a man's suit of clothes. She found herself in Rosso's barber shop, and when she asked him what had happened to her she alleges he told her be had cut off her hair and bad burned her clothing. She said she obeyed Rosso's Instruc­ tions to work In the barber shop, and as she was familiar with the use of a razor she had little trouble in keep­ ing up the disguise. She got tired of the job and fled to Salano's place and begged him to help her. Meantime she still wore her disguise and shaved the men who came to Salano's place. Magistrate Yuill held Rosso in de­ fault of $1,500 ball and Salano In $500 ball. The young woman was held as a witness. LOST YELLOW COW LOCATED Owner's Suspicion is Aroused Be­ cause of Variation In Size of Neighbor's Herd. Oreen Lake, Pa.--An application of lampblack had so changed the color of a yellow cow belonging to Frank O. Lauer that It took two weeks before the owner and two constables empow­ ered with search warrants could lo­ cate and Identify the animal under most peculiar circumstances. Lauer's blooded Jersey cow had wandered from her moorings several weeks ago and despite all efforts to find her no trace of the missing ani­ mal could be found. A herd of five cows on a farm, clost: by, occupied by a tenant, numbered six on clear days, and only five on rainy ones. This aroused suspicion, and, accompanied by Constable John Bitting of Red Hill, the owner of the lost cow examined the strange animal, for whose presence Mr. Bracey could not account. After a rigid examina­ tion Mr. Lauer gave it up, saying: "She has the size, the missing tooth, and one hoof is chipped, but my cow was a yellow color." Just then the constable stroked the cow gently, when the color of both his palm and the cow s coat of hair changed slightly, and after repeating the operation with Increased pressure a bright yellow streak was revealed and the yellow cow was found and taken home.
