In districts where the conservation of moisture is import. ant the cover crop should be turned un- der as soon as pt nible in the spring and in some parts plants which wer killed by winter are preferred as there is no loss of moisture through them in spring. Leguminous plants are, on the whole. best for corn crops as they take ni- trogen from the air, but often oats and rape are used to good advantage. The seed for the cover er0p 'should be sown, if possible, when the ground is moist, as in the summer the seed will germinate quickly if there is moisture. After the seed is 'town the land should be rolled as this will bring the momture to the surface and about the seed and hasten germination. It is important to get growth started in good time, as there is sometimes a protracted drought in July and August, which prevents ger- mination and spoils the Prospect for n good cover crop. In districts where no injury from mice where cover croos were used, as their depredations'were prevented by using either ordinary build- ing paper or wood Veneers. No fruit grower should neglect having n. cover crop as a fine bearing orchard in bare soil might be destroyed which would have been saved had there been a (over crop. Proof of this was furniehd by the great "freeze" in Essex County in 1899. when and new to Bow-mo Beat Sorts. On May 17th, the Dominion Fruit In- spectors met in the orchard at the Cen- tral Experimental Farm and discussed cover crops. The subject was Intro- duced by Mr. W. T. Macoun, horticul- turist, who gave his experience with different plants used for this purpose, and told what he considered were the principal uses of cover crops. He said that the importance of a covering for the soil in winter was strongly impress- ed on him after the winter of 1895-96, when many trees were root killed at the Central Experimental Farm. Since that time the subject had received much at- tention by his department. 'the main uses of the cover crop are: To hold the snow in winter and thus protect the roots of the trees; to furnish vegc-l table matter to plough under in tho spring for the purpose of obtaining hu. mus and nitrogen; and to act as a catch er0p in autumn to prevent leaching of plant food made available during the summer. lie recommended, as the best‘ ( general practice tor growers, cultivating l the soil until near or about the middle of July when the trees have made most of their growth and do not need so much moisture, and then seeding Poum to Common or Mammoth Red clover, sown broadcast at the rate cf 12 lbs per acre, or with Hairy Veteh at the rate of 30 to 40 lbs per acre. Sewn at that time these plants usually make a good cover by autumn. At the Cen tral Experimental Farm, Hairy Yetch was sewn on June 18th, 1003, in drills 28 inches apart at the rate of 20 lbs per acre. These received two cultivation, and by the end of the first week in Aug- ust the plants were between the rows. By sowing eurlier,asin this case. a bet, ter stand may be obtained. and by cul- tivation moisture is conserved while the plants are getting established. Twenty pounds per acre sown in drills in this way were found quite sufficient to make a good cover. There was practically COVER CROPS FOR ORCHARDS.

There is no doubt that much of what ig called success in life depends upon "getting well into the groove" and keep- ing there. Some unlucky Englishman in responsible for the saying: "if my fa- ther had made me a hauer men would have been born without heads." but this can seareely he ealled original, as an unfortunate Arab, ages ago, de. elared, "If I were to trade in winding sheets no one would die." It is to men of _ this stamp the French apply the proverb, W‘Falls on his back and breaks hi. ‘ nose"; the Italians, "He would break hie neck over a straw." "Misfortunea sei. dom comes singly,” has many uiva- lents in all languages. The Spanning: any "Weleome, misfortune, if thou comet-t alone!" and "Whither goest thou, mia- fortune? To where there is more?" The [Italians have numerous proverbs in the same strain: "One ill ealla another," "One misfortune h the eve of an- other." "A misfortune and a friar an seldom alone." The name applies also to good fortune. "It never rains hut it pours." or, an the Arabs say. "If the wind blows it enters at every ereviee." "He that is down. down with him," baa its counterpart in all muntriea. "He that falls all the world runs over." in the German mode of saying it, and the. Por- tuguese proverb runs. "All bite the hit. ten dog," while the Prenrh equivalent in. "When a dog is drowning everybody brings him drink." The proverbs on luck are numerous and expressive in all languages. In Eng- lish we say, "rt is better to be born lucky than rich." The Arabs convey the same idea in the apt proverb: "Throw him into the Nile and he will come up with a fish in his mouth"; while the Germans bay: "If he flung a penny on the roof . dollar would come back to him." A Spanish proverb says: "God send you luck, my son, and little wit will serve you." There is a Latin adage, "Fortune favors fools," and it is to this Touchstone alludes in his reply to Jacques, "Ca0 me not fool till Heaven hath Bent me fortune." The Germans say: “Jack gets on by his stupidity,” and "Fortune and women are fond of fools." There is also a Latin pron-rt: which shows that the converse of this holds good. "Fortune makes a tool of him whom she too mach favors.” There is no doubt that mueh of what is called mum-em~ in life depends upon Greek original come-two French pro. , verbs: "Between the hand and the mouth I the soup is often 3 ilt," and "Wine pour- ed out is not 'i','d'l'ldtiu,e Neither in so near the original as our Engliah, "ThereU many a slip 'twirt cup and lip." It is curious, to trace how simi- lar ideas have taken root in dim-feat languages, and the various mode. of u. lustrating the some thought. To take, for instance, one or two familiar pro- verbs in our own language, We only. "A bird in the hand is worth two In the bush." The same idea in expreu‘sd by Italians when they say, "Better an egg to-day than n pullet to-morrow," and the French proverb is still more signitieant, "One here-ibis is hotter than two you-shall-hnve-its." “Better n Irv. eret in the kitchen than a wild hour in the forest," the Livoninn saying, con- veying the same meaning. Another well. known proverb, "Where there's a will thereutvwa.v," which signifies that if a man has but the resolution. he will make use of such means an come to hand to attain his object. The French counter- art of this says: "He that has n good Read does not want for hats." WHAT BECOMES or HAIRPINS. “VI-toga me Are Vitty " ttth. cruise. Many proverbs have come down to u: from remote ages and one com-on in all nations. It is said that a king ot Samoa worked his slave- nearly to death in making . vineyard; this provoked one of them to pmshecy that hit master would never rink of the wine, The King, being told of this, when the tinit grapes Were produced, took a handful, and, pressing the juid! into a cup in the presence of the slave. de- rided him as a false prophet. "Many things happen between the cup and the lip," the slave replied. Just then I shout was raised that a wild boar had broken into the vineyard; the King without tasting, set down the cup, ran to meet it, and was killed in the en- counter. lleneei'ortu the words of the slave passed into I proverb.
