Farm Notes.
—The very small potatoes are just
the thing for the hens in winter, and
will be worth as much for feeding as
those that are larger.
—A bee keeper says that should a
colony become queenless from ap)
cause, three weeks may be gained by
having an extra queen to give it at
once.
—Pear trees that are blighted should
be cut down, rooted and burned, or the
disease may spread. The sacrifice of
a few trees may save many others la-
ter on.
—Those who ridicule the “razor-
back” hog of the South are guilty of
keeping cows that compare as unfavor-
ably with the pure breeds as the razor-
back hog does with- the Berkshire or
Chester White.
—Account books at this season
would be of assistance. They enable
the farmer to know how much each
crop cost and in estimating the results
he will partially be guided in his next
season’s operations.
—A very fat hog in summer is a suf-
ferer and especially so if there is not a
plentiful supply of pure water. Slop
is not sufficient. Pure water is essen-
tial, and a grass diet is much better
than feeding grass.
—It is well to always mix a little
chopped hay, straw or corn fodder with
ground feed. This gives the finer food
proper bulk, and keeps it from pack-
ing inthe animal’s stomach. It also
adds variety to the ration.
—Apple trees should be so pruned
- that all parts may be reached by a
spray ; well-pruned trees allow free ac-
cess of light and air among the
branches, and this prevents fungi from
obtaining so strong a hold.
—There are two matters connected
with dairying which demand attention.
First always wash the udders of the
cows ; rinse, and wipe with a clean
towel. Second, the hands of the milk-
ershould be washed just before milk-
ing. ; >
—Tomatoes in this section should
make rapid progress during this month
and August. The green worm must
be guarded againet, as it strips the
leaves and may destroy the entire plant
if thore is neglect in examination ot
the plants,
—Coareer soil in the bottom of flow-
er pots provides good drainage. The
kind of soil is not so essential to their
growth as is generally supposed. Any
ordinary garden soil is good, and it
can be improved by the addition of a
little well-rotted manure.
—To give good plants for winter
blooming pansy seed should be sown
now. Sow ina pot or shallow box,
and place in a cool, shady place until
the seedlings are well up. Pot them
and still keep where it is cool. They
should be nice plants by fall.
—The striped cucumber beetle at-
tacks cucumbers, melons, squash and
puwmpkine, and is not easily destroyed.
Spray the vines with a solution made
by dissolving a gill of saltpetre in a
gallon of water, and then apply fine
tobacco dust around the base of the
vines.
—The quality of corn fodder is al-
most unlimited, but it is criminal to
waste any of it, as has been the woeful
fashion. Cut up, shredded and baled,
1t keeps green and sweet, and is a rich,
nutritious food ; it in this shape, pro-
mises to be an important item of food
in the future.
—The deeper the soil is plowed, the
greater its capacity for holding water
and deriving the most benefit from
rains. If the land is subsoiled, and
underlaid with drain tile, it will not
only be warmer and more penetrable
by the roots of plants, and will also be
in better condition for withstanding a
drought than land not so treated.
— Whale oil soap is omething that
should be kept in a convenient place
for use on house plants. The well-
known mealy bug is destroyed by a so:
lution of whale oil soap, if it is sprink-
led on the plants, and it is also an ex-
cellent preventive of lice on animals.
Being cheap as well as harmless to
plants and animals it should be used
as often as desirable.
—Two or three years of city life un-
der right conditions will polish up a
young man and teach him something
of business ways. Many of our most
skilled and influential farmers have
lived awhile in the city. Such men
are better contented in the country
than many of those who have always
lived onthe farm, bécause they better
understand the drawbacks as well ag
the pleasures of city life.
—The poorest farm can be made fer-
tile without manure or fertilizer, if
time is no objection, for nature slowly
recuperates all soils, as has been dem-
onstrated by the fallow system of
resting the land. This can be done
more speedily, however, by growing
something to turn under. Of course,
the true remedy is manure and fertil-
izers, but if they are insufficient, keep
the land covered with something, if
only scant herbage.
—Many farmers this year have so
much more land in cultivation, owing
to the failute of seeding a year ago that
any way of getting it into grass or
clover again will be acceptable: It is
not generally known that timothy can
be seeded with buckwheat very suc-
cessfully, by sowing when the buck.
wheat is sown or as soon after
ward as possible, The young grain
has a broad leaf which protects the
grass from injury by the sun.
148 People Drowned.
Horrible Fate of Excursionists Near Spezia,
Ttaly.— Two Steamers in Collision—The Mar-
riap Sinks With Nearly All on Board—The
Vessels Met in the Dark, and Struck Each
Other Nard. :
GENO4, July 22.—The Italian steam-
ers Ortegia and Mariap collided off |
Isla del Pinto, at the entrance of the |
Gulf of Genoa to-day. 7 |
The latter sank, and 148 persons
were drowned.
The Marlap was bouad from Naples
to La Plata. There was a crew of 17,
and the passengers numbered 173. She
was entering the Gulf of Genoa at 1:30
o'clock this morning when she met the
Ortegla outward bound. They came
toward each other, and a collision was
800n seen to be inevitable.
DROWNED IN THEIR BERTHS.
The bow of the Ortegia crashed into
the starboard side of the Mariap, pene-
trating six yards and ripping up the
steamer like matchwood.
The water rushed in through the
hole, and the Mariap sank in three
minutes.
The majority of the passengers were
asleep at the time of the accident and
had no time to escape after the alarm
wag given, They were engulfed with
the vessel. The Ortegia remained on
the spot until 6 o'clock in order to pick
up the survivors. She rescued fourteen
of the crew and twenty-eight of the
passengers of the Mariap.
Other steamers were diepatched to
the scene of the disaster ‘and are now
searching for further survivors.
The Ortegia’s bow was smashed for a
Jane of twelve feet along the water
ine,
TO MAKE AN INQUIRY.
There is some comment upon the
fact, brought to mind by the disaster,
that the Ortegia once collided on the
same spot with the French steamer
Oncle Jesep.
At the conclusion of the sitting of
the Chamber to-day at Rome the
Minister of Marine announced the
news of the disaster in the midst of a
profound sensation, adding that an
officer, two seamen, a stoker and. one
hundred and forty-four passengers of
the Mariap had perished. The Cham-
ber has ordered an inquiry. The Orte-
gia had twenty-five passengers on
board. The Mariap captain was
named Ferrara.
