FARft NOTES.
Currant and enrsenorry boshes may
be set in the fall, if desired, and well
mnloliod.
Save the best shaped and colored
tomatoes lor deed every year, aud
the strain will be much improved.
If the cabbage heads show signs of
bursting, pail eaoh bond a 1 ttle so as
to break a few of the roots and thus
check the rapid growth.
Look out for weak anil broken
ronnds in the ladder. Bad accidents
have happened by going through bucIi
ladders. Pat iu new rounds before
anything occurs.
Last mouth we told you to "tip"
the blackcap raspberries an to cut
out the old wood that has fruited.
Not too late to do this now. Blin k
berries too, should have fie old wood
cat not.
Look out tor frost Into this mouth.
Tomato vines, etc, may be protected
cold uights by a covering of straw,
newspapers, cloths otn. On largo
fields, smudge fires will often save
a srop from frost damage.
Winter onion sets should go into
the ground early this month. They
are quite hardy, but a light muloh of
leaves, straw or litter won't hurt
theni in the north ; they'll be ready
for nse early in the spring.
Pears are best when ripened in
doors instead of on the trees. The
time to pick pear is determined,
first, by their known season of ripen
ing ; and, second, by the ease with
which the stem parts from the branch
when the frnit is slightly lifted.
Does your neighbor know that the
Htrawberry plants are now forming
dormant fruit buds for next year's
crop, and that the corp thon depends
largoly opon the care now? Perhaps
you"ll be doing him a favor if you
show him this paper and ask him to
subsoribe.
It is important to piok vegetables
at Uie right time. If picked while
the sou is at its height, they are more
or leia wilted aud do not kep so
well. This does not apply to beans
they should never be handled while
wet or they will rust. Nearly all
vegetables are juicier aud sweeter
if picked before they are qaite full
si zed.
