Farm Notes.
Hundreds of acres of -land are de-
voted to small fruits, which are annu-
ally cropped with no return to the soil
of the elements taken from it. Strong
competition . has forced strawberry
growers to go to some expense for fer-
tilizers in order to produce large ber-
ries, but the raspberries and black-
berries receive but little manure or
fertilizers. In the fruit growing sec-
tions dairying is given but little or no
attention; hence manure is not plentiful,
reliance being placed upon commercial
fertilizers. There is one point regard-*
ing raspberries and blackberries, and
that is the large production of canes
every year. This growth of new canes
takes from the soil a much larger pro-
portion of plant food than do the ber-
ries, and as fields may bear successive
crops for ten or more years, the im-
portance of an annual application of
fertilizer cannot be too strongly urged.
The early spring is usually the period,
of the year when fertilizers are applied,
but there is a heavy growth of canes
until late in the fall. In fact, the
plants get ready during the summer
and fall for next year’s crop of berries.
WHEN TO APPLY FERTILIZERS.
The spring application of fertilizers
will always -give excellent results, but
they should be very soluble, in order
that the canes, which grow very rap-
idly, may be plentifully supplied, but
after the crop is picked an application
of potash and finely-ground bone
should then be used. Nitrogen should
not be applied very liberally in the
fall, as it is liable to be carried away
by the excessive rains during the
winter, owing to its ready solubility;
but mineral matter will assist in the
production of larger and healthier
canes and aid them in resisting the at-
tacks of insects and diseases: It is
claimed that plants possess a ‘‘storage
capacity’’—that is, the ability to hold
within themselves the substances from
which the fruit is produced the next
year—which claim is not fully accept-
ed, however, but it is well known that
when plants have been well cultivated
and liberally supplied with plant food
in the summer and fall they respond
to the good treatment and yield more
than a sufficiency of fruit to compen-
sate for the expense incurred in push-
ing the plants forward and enriching
the land.
CULTIVATION NECESSARY.
Outside-of au-effort to kill off the
largest seeds between the rows, the
canes of blackberries and raspberries
receive but little cultivation, and in
the rows among the plants, weeds and
grass contend for supremacy. The
field is usually given up until spring,
except to cut out the old canes during
the winter, and the 13nd is compelled
to grow to crops—canes and weeds—
and the canes are kept down, being
unable to resist drought, because much
of the plant food and moisture is taken
by the weeds. Not only should deep
and clean cultivation be given between
the rows, but it will be an advantage
to give the canes more room, so as to
cultivate them under the “check row"
system, if possible. in order to avoid
using the hoe. Canes are allowed to
become too thick in the rows, and by
giving more room, with clean cultiva-
tion, larger and better berries will be
By burn-
ing the old canes in winter and apply-
ing fertilizer at this season, thinning
out the canes, keeping the rows clean
and allowing no weeds or grass to
grow among the canes, the grower will
secure 8 much larger profit from his
fruit next year.
—Leaving the hogs in the clover
field to be tattened on corn in the fall
pays well when they are not ready for
sale, but there is nothing to gain by
keeping a hog until fall or winter if it
is of a weight sufficient to bring a fair
price. The time to sell is_when the
hog is ready for market, without re-
gard to the season of the year. It isa
waste of time, food and labor to keep
it over the summer if it is salable. —
—White clover is a plant that will
grow almost anywhere it the land is
not too poor, and it is the best of all
foods for sheep, as it does not grow to
as great a height as the red variety.
Sheep prefer the short grasses, and will
select white clover as its favorite. ~ A
pasture composed of white clover and
blue graes will provide excellent graz-
ing for all kinds of sheep.
—The hog pen should not be a
breeding piace for flies. ~ If the pen is
kept clean and also well littered the
pigs will be less annoyed bv insects
and will thrive, but at this season,
when flies are so severe on all kinds of
stock, the pigs will remain at a stand-
still, waking butlittle growth if the
pen is filthy and wet.
—Any farmer can get his stock up
in quality at a small expense by the
use of selected pure-bred males. It re-
quires but a few years to obliterate the
scrub blood, and the large gain result-
ing from the improvement will make
ig pay that have never done so be-
ore.
—The artichoke is frequently rec-
ommended for hogs. It depends on
whether the land can be used for some-
thing else or not. Artichokes become
pests and weeds if they are allowed to
take possession of the land. The bet-
ter plan is to grow potatoes instead.

Thirteen Years Experience.
MiLLEr’S FALLs, Mass.—¢During
the past thirteen years,” said Mr. W.
A. Johnson of this place, ‘my wife has
been sick from kidney and liver com-
plaint and ulceration of the stomach.
At each time she has taken Dr. David
Kennedy’s Favorite Remedy, and it
cured her. It is a family medicine with
us and many of our neighbors.”
Several Reasons.
“No,” said the girl to the wrong
young man, ‘my new dress won't be
finished in time and mamma doesn’t
wanl me to go anyway. I'm sorry.
Besides, I am going with Mr. Jones.”
.——A big boom in wine making is
planned in some parts of California for
the coming season. In the northern
Sonoma district last year many tons of
fine grapes rotted on the vines, the sup-
ply being greatly in excess of the capac-
ity of the wireries. ~All the leading
wine makers of the district are now in-
creasing the capacity of their cellars,
the t al increase being about 700,000
gallons, and many wineries not operated
last season are being put in shape for a
heavy season’s run this year. Over four
hundred car loads of wine have been
shipped out of the district in the past
few months to make room for the new
vintage. Grapes are selling there for
from $10 to $15 a ton.
——Several bicycling girls at Cold-
water, Mich.,, have outgrown the
bloomer stage, according to a Detroit
newspaper, and now ride in the streets
and suburbs wearing complete mascu-
line - wheel costumes—knickerbockers,
golf stockings, and short jackets.
—— Blessings are not always sugar-
coated. No, neither are pills—but Dr.
Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets, are, and they
are genuine blessings in \(sugar-coated)
disguise to the sufferer from biliousness,
constipation,indigestion and all derange-
ments of the stomach, liver and bowels.
Buy them and try them,
You can't make a mistake,
They're powerful, yet painless,
And pleasant to take.

Happily in thousands of homes, such
