STILL TIME TO PLANT BULBS.
Dealers report bulb stocks going
rapidly. Sorr.o have dlposcd ot thelr
ontlro stocks without issuing a cat
alogue, aarduners who have not pur
chased their bulbs should do so be
fore It Is too late to obtain them. It
is also advisable to get tho bulbs in
tho ground while tho soil Is In good
workable condition.
HOME SEED SAVING.
Good results from home seed savins
aro sometimes obtained, but without
the most intelligent selection ami care
tho experiment is rarely repeated.
All cultivated plants have been Im
proved from inferior forms and have a
pronounced tendency to deteriorate or
revert to tho original form. 8eed
growers malntkin constant watchful
ness and exercise tho greatest care to
see that no retrograde or untrue speci

its seods. The growing crops are
arefully watchtd and all Imperfect
.limits are destroyed.
Dealers now employ men to grow
heir seeds who mnke a specialty ot

A'ork constantly to Improve the btrain
Another consideration is that to get
pure needs tho work ot bees must be
considered. If seeds are wanted true
not more than one variety of squash
may begrown In any one year. When
neighboring gardens abound with dif
ferent varieties of cabbage, squash.
cucumbers and otjier plants -mixture?
tiro uunuai ueniuii iu rumm.
The seedsmen keep related crops far
apart, such as squash; pumpkins and
melons; onions and leeks; cabbage.
kale and Brussels sprouts; turnips
and swedes, &c. Peas are an excep
tion, being 6elf-ferttllzed, and if the
seed is picked over by hand the seed
should give good results whero several
varieties are grown together.
Of course, different families will
not cross, such as onions with carrots.
parsnips, beets. 4c.
To make seed saving a success evpry
nfurlor plant must be weeded out and
ho seed taken from well grown, per
'ect spedi lens. If seeds are saved
'rom Infer! r plants the result will be
backwards.

'LIME IN OLD PLASTER.
When a celling falls, as they some
times do, thero is tho slight consola
tion that the old plaster' can be usod
to advantage In the garden.
Tho Idea of using old plastor In
gardens was suggested In tlicso
columns some time ago. It was
promptly challenged by a writer in
an agricultural Journal, who said that
plaster was largely composed of sand.

not niter the fact that old plnster

A year ago it was necessary to'have
tho plaster removed from the .ceilings
of three large rooms. Tho plaster

this trouble was promptly accepted.
Tho plaster was old and hard as

It except large pieces. The plaster.
was spread over the garden and' the
large lumps wero broken with a blow
of the spade. The wholo was then
spaded under. In tho spring the land
was xpadod a second time.
After a yenr most of the lumps aro

Crushed limestone spread over the

If old plaster Is to bo had do not
neglect to work it into tho garden,
breaking up the lumps as fine as pos

been limed with the -old plaster a lot
of decayed leaves will bo worked In.
Sheep manure will be applied liberally
to tho growing crops and the abun
dant crops will more than pay for the
trouble.
SAVE WOOD ASHES.
Save the ashes from wood fires.
Store them In boxes or barrels In a dry
placountil spring, when they should
be spread over tho garden for their
high fertilizing value.

BLACKBIRDS VALUABLE.
This spring while ploughing for po

by. a flock of blackbirds, and out of cu
riosity I watched them to see what
they were after and found that, they
wero gathering up every grub in sight,
and there were lota of them. A neigh
bor's boy came over whero I was at
work, and on seeing tho birds started
to drive them off. I stopped him and
showed him what they were doing. He
thought that it would pay me to feed
the birds so aa to keep them on the
Job. There were enough grubs lp

CURING MEAT.
The principal preservatives used In
curing meat are salt, sugar and
molasses. Suit preserves the meat
through its astringent nnd slightly
germicidal action. It hardens the
muscle fibres and draws tho moisture
from the meat. Sugar nnd molasses
have almost the opposite effect; they
cause the retention of the moUture
of tho meat nnd keep the mubclo fibre
rot and tender. Salt and sugar are
commonly used together bocnuso of
this opposite action. Chemical pre
servatives aro to bo avoided. Even
saltpeter must be.uscd with caution.
Pork Is toy no means tho only meat
j Which may bo successfully preserved.
uiuut'ii it is wie ono usually preserved.
Beef may bo successfully dried and

palatable when .pickled.

NEW CYCLOPEDIA OF FARMING
AND GARDENING.

Not so many years ago, when Chl
rago was further away from New York
than It is now in travelling time, Rich
ard SeiirK, a young man, came East
from one of the moro distant States of
the plains and opened a small ofllce In
Chicago. He advertised to send
watches and revolvers by express,
with the privilege of examination bo
fe paying for them.
Seara worked rapidly all day and
frequently Into tho night. Ills noods
wero good value and tho business
prosperod. To-djy Sear, Roebuck &
Co. occupy many large buildings
grouped for convonlenco In handling
a lurge volume of business. Ono
building Is occupied exclusively by tho
pnniipg ana DnoKOlnding plant. The
employees of the ooncom If residing
in one locality would mako a fair sized
city.
One ot the recent efforts of Scars.
Roebuck ,& Co. is a new cyclopedia of
farming anfl'girdenlng that, following
the original plan on which the business
was founded, Is sent for examination
without 'expense to those considering
purchasing. If found satisfactory easy
terms or;, payment can be arranged.

MARKET COCKERELS AT
WEIGHT OF TWO POUNDS
Farmers or poultrymen will And It
moro proutable to marKet young
cockerels when they reach a weight
of two pounds rather than to feed
tne birds until lato fall or early
winter, nccordlng to results secured In
feeding tests at the Ohio Experiment
Station. The experiments show that
at leaBt ten pounds of grain must be
fed to produce a pound of gain and it
is doubtful whether grain should bo
utilized for meat production through
poultry.
On tho average 4ho feed necessary
to grow tho birds to maturity will coat
4 cents a pound; thus unless tho poul
try producer has a special market for
the heavier birds tho price secured
next fall may not pay for the feed
given the fowls.
Toung cockerols markotod now as
broilers generally bring an attraotlvo

egg producers, tho poultry specialists
