FARM NOTES.
—In these days of rush and scramble for
—no one knows what—many seem to have
discarded all things that do not produce
cash, and the home garden is the first to
suffer—on the plea that their owners can-
not afford the time ; while it really is the
most profitable acre on the farm.
A good garden will save very much in
groceries, meat ; and in many cases, doc-
tor’s bills; to say nothing of the better
culture and satisfaction in the home where
its fruits are to be had. Living on meat,
potatoes and bread differs very little from
the savages and is a very poor diet to
broaden the intellect of either young or
old.
The first important step toward a gar-
den is the selection of seed. One must |
have good seed, -else his labors are all for
naught. This does not mean simply seeds
that will grow, but fresh well selected seeds
that are purg'and true to name. The seed
of most varieties of vegetables will grow
when they are several years old, but none
of them are improved with age ; and sev-
eral varieties will not amount to anything
if the seed is two or three years old. The
seed usually sold in the grocery stores are
of this class and are not to be depended
upon. There are many reliable seed firms
and they all send their catalogues free.
Very cheap seeds, however, are seldom pro-
fitable to buy ; so my advices is to buy of
a seedsman who seems to give a fair and
impartial description of his seeds and
charges a fair price for them.
For the garden plot I prefer rather a
low, well drained piece of ground with a
slight south slope in preference to a south
hillside. Garden ground cannot be too
rich naturally, but if stable manure is used
it should be fine and plowed in as deeply
p | possible. Make and keep it mellow,
e and as clean as possible and do not
work it when it is wet and you will surely
have plenty of excellent vegetables the
year around. 2
A packet each of tomatoes and cabbage
is enough. The tomatoes at least should
be planted in a box in the house during
the month of March and transplanted May
1st so as to get deeper and give more room;
and the last of May the weather will be
safe to set them out in the garden—setting
four feet apart each way. Of peas, beans
and corn, get a pint to a quart of each va-
riety, according to the size and tastes of
the family ; of other seeds about an ounce
of each kind. It costs but little more and
as Mrs. Means told her husband, ‘‘While
you're gittin’ git a plenty.” Don’t be
stingy with the garden. The chickens and
stock can eat what you can’t if you don’t
sell it.
I will give a list of varieties I have tried
and have found best so far ; vet I am still
trying to find something better : Asparagus
Conover’s colossal, I think this is the most
desirable vegetable. Coming in as it does,
the first in the spring, it should be in
every garden. Grow it on low, rich, well
drained soil in a bed or in rows four feet
apart and plants two feet apart, dig outa
place two feet deep and fill in with all sorts
of old rubbish, as bones, rotten wood, old
shoes and well rotted manure ; cover with
soil and set the plants so that the crown
- will come about five inches helow the sur-
face. Keep the bed clean from grass and
weeds. Do not eut any of the asparagus
for two years; when it will do to use.
Never cut asparagus.above the surface as
many do, but cut it an inch below and keep
it all cut before it starts to bush out. This
will keep it in bearing as long as you
want it.
For beans I use Wardwell’s Kidney
Wax and Burpee's Dwarf Bush Lima;
beets,” Eclipse; cabbage, Early Jersey
Wakefield, for early and All Head Early
or Sure Head for main crop ; cauliflower,
Henderson’s Snowball ; celery, Golden Self
Blanching or White Plume ; sweet corn,
Cory, None Such, Country Gentlemen and
Evergreen, planted at the same time
These will give good corn all the sea-
' son.
For lettuce, Tomhanock, Grand Rapids,
and Denver market ; musk melon, Emereld
Gem and Jenny Lind for early and. Miller’s
Cream or Princess for late ; water melon’s
Phinney’s Eye ; onions, Red Wethersfield,
Yellow Danvers and White Globe’; pars-
nips, Hollow Crown ° peas, Alaska, Pre-
mium "Gem, Heroine: or Telephone and
Champion of England. These planted at
the same tine will give excellent peas for
six weeks. The last two named are tall
varieties and need to be brushed to do well.
For radishes, Scarlet Olive Shaped, planted
once a week ; spinach, Bloomsdale or Long
Standing ; squash, Summer Crookneck and
‘Winter Hubbard or Sibley ; tomatoes; Acme
fora good all around tomato ; turnip, Pur-
ple Top Strap: Leaf ; salsify. Sandwich Isl-
‘and, a fine winter root used for soups or
stews, and should be grown by all. In the
fall dig them and pack in sand in the
cellar. =e : .
I have found thoroughly air slacked
lime to be the best and cheapest thing to
keep the flee beetle and striped cucumber
‘or melon bug from destroying plants. It.
has to be put on after every rain or heavy.
dew as long as the enemies are around, but
they will not bother the plants as long as
it is on them and the lime does mot injure
-the plants asdoes the kerosene emulsion.
I am still looking for a reliable and practi-'
cal remedy for the cabbage worm. :
When properly conducted, the Kitchen’
garden should be the most profitable part
of the farm. Too often -its confined area
and the laborious methods employed in its
management make the labor of cultivating
it out of all proportion to the returns. In-
stead of confining the garden toa small
area, it is better to enclose one or two acres
of good rich land with a good windhbreak of
some kind, so that it will make a garden
plot twice as long as wide. Leave a head-
land in grass about fifteen feet wide around,
as good crops cannot be grown next to a
windbreak. The rows should run the long
way of theland. If the garden is surround-
ed by a fence, it will be found a good plan
to have the part at the ends “of the rows
made of movable panels, so they may be
removed when cultivating.
Onions need to be sown as early in the
spring as the land can be plowed. Select
a rich part of your garden, use plenty of
well rotted manure, pulverize the soil after
harrowing with a fine tooth garden rake,
putting- all the coarse litter to one side.
Take your radish seed and mix it with the
onion and sow with a seeder ; Use the rad-
* ishes till past their season, then go through
and pull up all that are left, thereby get-
ting two crops in one and saving extra care |
and weeding. For early use get ‘‘sets.”’
They are ready to use the last of May for
salad.—The Northwestern Agricutturist,

THE WHOLE STORY SO FAR.
The contest on the Greek frontier is the
last phase of a struggle that has existed for
centuries. The Roman Empire in the Au-
gustan age compassed the then civilized
world. India and China were cut off from
| the rest of the globe, and though they
reached a high stage of civilization after’
their own kind, they were not counted as
part of the civilized world. The decentra-
lizing process began soon after the death of
Augustus, and before long there were two
Roman emperors and the seat of power was
transferred to Byzantium, rechristened
Constantinople after the first Christian Em-
peror. A few more centuries rolled by and
the propaganda of Mahomet began with
the object of bringing the whole world un-
der the banner of the prophet. At one time
it seemed destined to succeed. Asia and
Africa fell before the Moslem invader, and
Europe drove back the rising tide after
herculean efforts. The fight was kept up ;
four hundred years ago Constantinople fell
into the hands of the Turk, and with it
Greece and the Balkan states:
The struggle for dominion has been car-
ried on ever since, but in the present cen-
tury, in the memory of many yet living,
the domains of the Sultan have been re-
stricted, and but for the powers there
would be no Turkish rule in Europe to-
day. The balance of power has demanded
that the Sultan control the Bosphorus and
the Dardanelles, and all efforts to drive
him out have so far failed.
The concert of the powers on its present
basis began after the Napoleonic wars.
With Napoleon safe in Saint Helena, the
monarchs sat down to make a new map of
Europe with guarantees for the future.
The powers were five at that time—Eng-
land, Russia, France, Austria and Prussia
—all the rest being of the second class, and
in a sense dependencies of the others. Time
has brought some changes. Prussia is now
the German Empire, and Italy is added to
the list. The basic principle of the agree-
ment was that no power should aggrandise
itself without compensation to the others
to maintain the balance of power. The
Crimean war broke the concert and Eng-
land and France joined with Turkey
against Russian ambition. At the conclu-
sion of that war certain promises were
made by the Sultan which were not kept.
The outrageous massacres of Christians
in Bulgaria brought on the Turco-Russian
war. The powers stood one side until the
war was over. The triumphant Russians
came in sight of Constantinople, and the
treaty of San Stefano was made, which
practically gave Russia control of the Bos-
phorus and would have resulted in the elim-
ination of the Turk from European po-
litics. Then the powers interfered. The
treaty of San Stefano was set aside, and
at the Congress of Berlin in 1878 a new ar-
rangement was made. Russia was given
new territory along the Black Sea and was
allowed to continue her conquests in Asia,
but she lost Constantinople. Turkey was
despoiled of much of her European terri-
tory. Some of the Balkan states became
independent, some were put under the
suzerainty of the Emperor of Austria, and
others received nominal autonomy, while
England received Cyprus as her share. The
Sultan agreed to carry out certain reforms
as to the Christians in his dominions and
Greece received the promise of a rectitied
frontier, which she did not get.
For a time there was a hope of better
things. The Sultan seemed to be progres-
sive. But Sultans have a way of dying
very suddenly, usually by request, and ere
long Abdul-Hamid gained the throne, and
the rest is recent history. The massacres
in Armenia exceeded anything known in
civilized history, and the powers at once
began to remonstrate. - ‘‘Identical notes’’
and threats have been served on the Sul-
tan from time to time without effect, hut
the powers were not agreed upon any
policy of coercion. The massacre of Christ-
ians in Crete brought about the crisis. The
Cretans are largely Greek in language, race
and religion. They asked the protection
of Greece, and that little nation rose as one
man in behalf of her neighbors. Then
came more ‘‘identical notes.” The pow-
ers were amazed that anything should be
done without their consent. The ‘‘peace-
ful blockade’ of Crete began and that of
Greece was threatened. The logic of events
soon made such measures useless. The
impatient Greeks have a patriotic organiza-
tion of a military character. These irre-
gulars swarmed over the border’ into that
portion of Turkey assigned them by the
Berlin Congress, which they had never
received. Now war is here in earnest.
In all the manoeuvering that has heen
going on for years it has been apparent
that the aim of Russia is to control the
Bosphorus and give an outlet for her navy
to the. Mediterraneon. The Baltic is closed:
in winter, and in any event the control of
the Danish Straits is easy in time of war.
The principal antagonist of Russian ambi-
tion is England, which fears the advance of
the Muscovite toward the Indian frontier.
The control of the Bosphorus would threaten
the Suez Canal, the key to the Indian situa-
tion. i :
‘The Russian diplomacy is not run on any
individual plan. Pan-Slavism is a prin-
ciple that depends on, no Czar. The pres-
ent youth may he well disposed toward the
Greeks for family reasons, but he cannot,
control the Russian spirit. In the far East
Russia is tightening her coils around China,
and she is moving steadily in the direction.
of the Bosphorus. Her restraining’ hand:
has been:apparent in all the last two years,
of fruitless negotiation, Whatever hap-
pens, Russia must be the gainer, and tinie’
i8' working to her advantage. The Russians!
are oriental and are the hatural allies of;
the Sultan ‘until the time comes to absorb,
Turkey into her own dominions." :
What the future of diplomacy will be no
man can foresee. It seems as if something
important must soon be done, and when
the contest comes Europe is threatened if,
the ambitions of Russia are not curbed. It
is the old fight of the East against the
West. Charles Martel liurled back the.
Turk in the seven days’ battle at Tours.

In the Flood Country.
People Twenty Miles from the River Find Th /
Drowned Out. -
“Too much cannot be said of the citi-
zens’ committee of Memphis. It is made
up of the very best people of that city,
who undertook the relief of their neigh-
bors across the river in Arkansas without
any idea of calling on the people outside
of the State for co-operation. It was only
after they had exhausted their means and
saw that the flood was to last longer than
had been at first feared that they were
compelled to accept assistance from other
cities,” said to a Louisville ‘‘Courier
Journal’ writer. :
‘‘The negroes are the greatest sufferers.
For the most part” they had a mule, a few
hogs and a dozen or more chickens, the
value of which measured the amount of
their credit. The water has swept away-
these small belongings and with them the
owners’ credit. They are, of course, thrown
upon the charity of the public. The white
people have suffered also, but they are.in
no ‘wise in such large numbers as the
negroes. Most of them still have credit,
and they are as a rule too proud to accept
charity and are living on their expectations
after the flood subsides. The committee
tries to be judicious in the distribution of
its supplies, and only those who are in
actual need and are poverty-stricken are
given assistance. The committee’s work
has resolved itself into keeping people from
starving.
‘‘The idea most people get from the news-
paper accounts of the flood is that when a
crevasse is made the water rushes over
miles of the country, carrying death and
destruction with it, much like the Johns-
town flood did. Of course, the property
immediately surrounding the break is
swept away, but the people 10 or 15 or 20
miles back in the country knew nothing of
the break until they awaken to find water
in their yards. They see the -water rise to
the level of their horses’ necks, and before
they can do anything to save their belong-
ings all their live stock has been drowned
and the people themselves are compelled to
seek safety on the tops of their cabins or on
floors built on stilts. Some have lived in
this way for weeks.
“I went out on a relief boat yesterday
and visited many of the cabins so situated.
Our boat went five miles back into the
woods, one of the country roads forming
the channel of the great yellow lake we
traversed. At certain points in this great
lake the committee has stations, barges an-
chored in the water. Irom these barges
innumerable skiffs radiate and carry the
supplies to the water-besieged people for
miles around. Tee
‘‘The opinion seems to prevail that sup-
plies will l@ve to be sent to the sufferers
The unfortunate
people have already fought against starva-
tion for three weeks. - The supplies that
have been sent consist of almost everything
edible ; pickles, crackers, fruits, vinegar,
cornmeal, bacon and so on. The commit-
tee much prefers the meal and bacon to the
other things, since articles to sustain life
are needed much more than anything else.
I found that the people about Memphis
were very fearful that the levee about New
Orleans would go, and if such should be
the case the calamity would be incalcu-
lable.
‘‘Frequently a boat can be seen bearing
the remains of some person who has died
of starvation or who has been drowned.
These are buried on the tops of Indian
mounds, when such can be found, but often
they must be .carried miles before dry
ground can be found in which to deposit
the hodies.”’ :
Mr. Allmond said the Memphis relief
committee is very much in need of assist-
ance at present.

SPINAL DISEASE.
And Painful Affections of Nearly all
Pink Pills.
Medical.
the Organs Cured by Dr. Willams
From the Journal, Detroit, Mich.
‘‘Disease of the spinal cord and nervous
prostration, was what the doctors called it
at first,”” Mis. Rosa Tapley, of No. 721
Harrison street, Ionia, Mich., said yester-
day to a reporter, ‘‘but it was not long be-
forf every organ and member of my body
wis affected. There was a confinuous beat-
ing at the pit of my stomach, my head
ached on until I thought I should grow
.insane. I felt as if I was smothering and
my legs would become so weak that I had
to'drop when I felt the spells coming on.
As for sleep, that was out of the question,
except little cat naps, for in addition to the
feelings I have attempted to describe, I had
neuralgia, and for six months I kept get-
ting worse, and at last was confined to my
bed in October, 1894. :
‘‘I have nearly always thought it was la
grippe, that I had,”’ Mrs. Tapley continu-
ed, ‘though the doctor never would say so,
but whatever it was it kept getting worse
and worse especially my head and nerves,
and I thought I should die, but I dragged
on a wretched existence until ahout one
year ago, when, while I was reading the
Detroit Journal and Saranac Weekly, I saw
a long account of a similar case to my own
being cured by the use of Dr. Williams’
Pink Pills for Pale People. I made up my
mind to try these pills, and so procured a
supply and began taking them according to
directions.
‘My experience has been most happy.
My heart’s action is normal, my back and
spine gave me very little trouble, all neu-
ralgic and rheumatic pains have left me. I
have no headache, whatever, and after the
hell that I suffered my life by comparison
is now like heaven.
‘I cannot say too much in praise of Pink
Pills. You may use all the adulatory lan-
guage of which you are capable,’’ Mrs. Tap-
ley said to the reporter, ‘‘and I will en-
dorse it. I havenever tired of recommend-
ing the pills to my neighbors, and my sis-
ter who is a school teacher, and had a ser-
ious time with her nerves and suffered from
loss of memory, at my suggestion is taking
Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills and is being rapid-
ly cured. ,
‘Read over what you have written,”
Mrs. Tapley requested, and after listening
attentively to what she had dictated, said :
“I can sign that statement with the great-
est” pleasure,” ‘and when the last’ remark
was entered the lady signed her name to the
reporter’swnotes thus :
(Signed) Mes. RosA TAPLEY,
721 Harrison street, Ionio, Mich.
“Dr. 'Williams’ Pink Pills contain, in a
condensed form, all the elements necessary
to give new life: and richness to the blood
and restore shattered nerves. They are an
unfailing specific for such diseases as loco-
motor ataxia, partial paralysis, St. Vitus’
dance, sciatica, neuralgia, rheumatism,
nervous headache, the after effect of la
grippe, palpitation of the heart, pale and
sallow complexions, all forms of weakness
either in male or female. Pink Pills are
sold by all dealers, or will be sent post paid

Felled by a Rabbit.
Animal Hits a Man From a Height of Sixty Feet.
An odd accident occurred Friday at the
stone quarry of Thomas Johnston, near
Clearfield. The men at the upper edge of
the pit drove a rabbit out of its lair, and
the frightened animal leaped over the edge
into the pit, falling 60 feet and striking John
Hanson, a laborer, on the neck. Hanson
was knocked down and so badly hurt that
he had to be carried home. The rabbit
was killed. .
—— “The man who brought this in,”’ re-
marked the editor’s assistant as he unrolled

dentially that he needed the money for it.”

almost invariably to be written by the
shortest poets.’’

recommend it as superior to any prescription
known to me.” _H. A. Arcuer, M. D.,
111 South Oxford St., Brooklyn, N. Y.
From personal knowledge and observation I
can say that Castoria is a excellent medicine for
children, acting as a laxative and relieving the
ent up bowels and general system very much.
any mothers have told me of its excellent ef-

a bad case of Catarrh accompanied by all the
usual symptoms attending the disease. Catching
cold continually. At last the eyes became afflict-
ed, they become weaker and weaker from in-
flammation,® then we became alarmed, and
brought her to Dr. Salm. After a course of treat-
ment, she is now, thanks to his skill, entirely
cured. Jaco B. MAURER.

A Fearful Case of Rheumatism
Salm.
Cured by Dr.
I have had a fearful case of rheumatism for
over 3 years, so bad that I could not lift my arms
to my head, and at every change of the weather
the pains were most excruciating. Any one hav-
ing suffered with rheumatism, can only a
preciate what I mean. I have only had 3 month's
treatment from Dr. Salm, you might almost say, I
am cured, and I am happy once more. Iwas 71
vears old at my last birthday. J. D. GARDNER.

After Having Tried Buffalo, Pittsburg, Greensburg
and Indiana Co., Physicians, Her Suffering
Grew Worse, but Dr. Salm Cured
"Her at Last.
For more than 10 years I have been leading a
miserable existence, on account of illness. I had
tried at least 10 doctors in Buffalo, Pittsburg,
Greensburg and surrounding towns. My suffer
ing grew worse and worse. I became thin, too
weak to work, and passed many sleepless nights.
Couldn't eat, my stomach was out of grder, and my
nerves seemed all unstrung. I don’@want to live
through another such a time, for anything in the
wide—wide world, and often [ have prayed to die.
After I had given up all hope of enjoying health
again, 1 to consult Dr. Salm, and, thank
the good Lord, that I did so. After a course ot
treatment, I once more enjoy fine health, eat,
sleep and work once more, as heretofore. Iam
truly grateful to Dr. Salm. He certainly under-
stands his business, as my case ‘is not the only
wonderful cure he has performed in this county.

After Having Tried 8 of the Best Doctors in the
Country, Without Avail, Dr. Salm Cured Her.
For more than 12 years I have suffered a good
deal of pain, in fact, I was in distress and misery
nearly all the time, partienlarly on sitting down.
The misery was in my left side, in the region of
my heart. It was’ very seldom ‘that I could at-
tend!to my, labors. Itried 8 different doctors, so
said, the best in our country, but I got worse in-
stead of better,” at last I went to Dr. Salm, who
makes regular visits to Sunbury, and thanks to
‘| his skillful treatment, I am now eatirely cured.

Every’ ‘Body Ought to Know What Dr. Salm did
Jor: Me. He..Cured Me of a Fearful Skin
Disease.
For more than 4 years I have had a most terri-
ble skin trouble. I seemed to be covered, like a
fish with scales all'over my body, even to my face
he pain was almost un-
endurable, and I walked the floor many a night,
on account of my ony. To work, was out of the
question, nor could I wash myself. I tried 5 of
! : = '|"our best doctors,’ spent money on patent medi-
Emit a purer sympathetic tone, proof against atmospheric action:
cines, such as Cuticura, Golden Medical Discov-
ery Ointments,’ etc., got treatment from Pierce
Medical Iustitute, Buffalo, but it went from worse
to worse. Then I heard of Dr. Salm’s wonderful
cures in this neighborhood, took his treatment,
and to-day, I am a new man. No more skin troub-
le. I am working again, and as well as ever.
Every body ought to know this.

Bad Case of Sore Eyes Cured by Dr. Salm.
Ever since I was a babe, I have suffered with
sore eyes. They became very painful, and with
every cold I took, and that was often enough,
they became worse and worse. Little scales had
to be removed from the lashes every morning,
and the margin of the lids began to look like
raw beef ; of course all this didn’t enhance my
eye-sight, nor.improve.myappearance. Thé doc-
tors around here didn’t do any good, my eyes got
worse and worse. Iam now 20 years oid, I went
to Dr. Salm, and he has done wonderful! work. No
more redness, no scales forming, soreness has al-
most entirely left, and my eye-sight is better.
I know I will be cured in a short time.
