THAT TKItHIKLE SCOl'ItGE. 14 Vfe li I'M'. Keep Wllk Can a Clean. In the cure of eiins. they ore to be kept elenn mid free from rust. They should be wnslit'd an soon ns possible after being used. Itlnse Unit with cold water, theu scrub thoroughly with a brush both Inside and outside, using warm water almost hot, or, better, a good soapsuds, which use often nny liow. (Jive particular oMeutluti to the Reams, nnd don't forget the outside. You know the Inside .'l often judged by the outside. Finish with scalding water. Turn your cans upside down long enough to ullow them to drain: then lenvu them right side up, or o their sides, iu the fresh nlr, and you will have clean, sweet cans. It Is a very common error to leave them over a stake o. a hoard. This Is a serious mistake, ns Invariably the cans will sour thereby. The hot air or steam rises, and having no escape, conse quently condenses in the cans and sours. Much milk otherwise, well cared for Is often tainted from no other reason. A rusty cau should not be used, as It Imparts a foreign flavor to milk. Genua mown Telegraph. Protecting Tomatoes. By exercising a little extra care, th" season for ripe tomatoes may be pro longed for two or three weeks beyond the usual period. As soon as there are indications of frost, cover the tomatoes in the evening with some kind of can vass or old blanket. Between the rows COVE It FOR TOMATO VIXR8. of tomatoes drive sticks about four feet apart and nail strips of boards on the top at the height of the tomato vines. I'laee the covers over these, letting the edges extend to the ground, where they must be fastened so that the wind will not blow them off. Leave no opening or the frost will get in. I prefer a heavy cover made of blankets, as this will often protect the vines when light canvass will full. If the work Is care fully done the tomatoes will stand a great deol of cold weather. New Eu gland Homestead. Keep Wood Under Cover. The wood cau be landed on a slight elevation near the shed (it sometimes happens It must be wheeled a distance of fifty yards or more). Stretch a wire say 3-16 inch diameter, from the pile into a window or door of the shed, and haul taut to a beam with a small tackle. Suspend a square basket or rack made for the purpose with a pul ley lashed to each end. Theu, with a small cord, Nos. 2 and 3, to draw back aud forth, attached to each ear of the basket, a man inside, -vith a boy to load the basket at the pile, can do more than four men with wheelbar rows, and do It easier. The loaded banket Is simply thrown up over the wire In the shed, and the wood falls out. The Inside man then plies the wood while the boy returns and fills the basket. I take my own wood through a second-story window In this way, and find it to be a great saving of labor over the old method. Port land Transcript. For HanlinT eitonea. On some fnrius the only time for hauling stones Is when tbe ground is dry and firm after harvest. A rigging may be made to aid In unloading by X QUICK DUMPING DEVICE. lengthening out the wagon so that a platform can be built upon two strong poles, as shown in the Illustration. The poles serve as bed pieces to which the platform should be hinged on one side and hooked on the other. When ready to onload the stones, unhook and dump. Blanching Celery. The old method of planting celery in trenches and blanching the stalks by piling soil around them is not much practised now. Various expedients have been devised to blanch celery cheaply. Much the best is to have the celery planted as nearly as possible on a level surface. When tbe stalks are large enough, place wide boards against the celery, holding tbem from falling by piling soil against the out side of the board protection. This will blanch the stalks and leaves without causing rust, as soil is sure to do In a rainy season. Mllklnz in Fir Time. It is very nnpleasant milking a rest less cow when tormented by flies. If he nses her natural means of defense, ber tali, It may quiet the cow at tbe ex it nee we ever saw to rid cows of tiles at milking time was some boughs of trees tied nlxive the cow, and coming down Just far enough to cover lior buck and a short distance down her sides. These leaves gently brush against the animal and protect her better thou she could do It herself. Cows used to this will seek such refuge during the hot summer days. Kxchnnge. Incnhatlnic Chicken. "I wonder If neighbor K. is baking eggs this year, as he did last," said one man to Another, as they met on the public, highway onu afternoon. "I suppose you know about his Incubator experience. He lnvicted In one that held about six hundred eggs, filled the trays with what he confidently hoped would prove to be broilers and roasters of the most delicious description. After watching the thermometer with the ut most cure for five or six days he got a little tired of It. as he seems to tire of everything, and, consoling himself with the reflection that the Incubator would probably get along nil right, he went out driving nnd stayed away for several hours. When he returned tin: bent had run up to a cooking point, nnd most of the poor little possibilities were beautifully cooked and done. And the most astonishing port of the en tire performance was that be treated the accident more like a huge joke than anything else. Three times lost spring he filled that Incubator, and each time the heat ran up until almost all of the eggs were spoiled. Out of eighteen hundred eggs there were less than one: hundred chickens that grew to broiler oge. It Is just such management as this that gives so many small industries n bad reputation. To succeed requires vigilance aud care." New York Led ger. Hnrvestln-r Machine While plows aud other agricultural Implements of American manufacture to a considerable amount In dollars are exported to many foreign coun tries, the value of the American har vesting machinery exported Is greater than that of any of them. American harvesting machines, mowjrs, rentiers and binders, and si on, are used all over the world, and In many countries extensively. American machines, like other American products, are copied by foreign manufacturers, but the for eigners are, of course, a year behind. The American machine placed on the market contemporaneously with the foreign copy. Is likely to contain Im provemeuts over the machine copied from one of a year before, and It Is sure to have some touch of superiority in detail or workmanship. American harvesting uiachlues are the best In the world, the lightest, the strongest aud the best adapted to their uses. New -k Sun. The Cabbaee ticnne. In a bulletin devoted to Injurious plant lice. Issued from the Maryland station, attention Is attracted to the old time enemy, the cabbage louse. This pest appears early In the sea son, even attack ing young cab bage grown for transplanting. It also attacks turnips and radishes to a greater or less ex tent. The winged viviparous female Is a greenish gray In color nnd is a sub ject for illustration. Flight usually takes place during very Warm weather, atid it Is not an uncommon sight with us to see the air filled with them In Au gust. The complete life history of this pest Is still unknown. The same rem edies suggested for tbe melon plant louse can be used for this Insect. They congregate on the underside of the leaves in great numbers, where they can be reached to best advantage by a spray directed with the bent brass ex tension. Propagation, To propngte from puny plants is as fatal to success as to breed animals from scrub stock. A plant never re fuses to bear fruit without a cause, and that cause Is often barrenness that no system of cultivation will remove. CAHIIAGB I.Ol 8K.
