    THE BASKET WORM.
The obnoxious basket worms, which
destroy evergreen hedges, must be
picked off by hand anda consigned to
the flames. The work must not be
delayed until spring, but should be
done now, and the hedges examined
again in a week or two, so as not to
everlook any of the pests. In April
spray the hedges once or twice with
Paris green and water.
A DESIRABLE SHADE TREE.
The maple is one of the most desir
able of shade trees, and of the varie
ties it is difficult to select, as some
thrive in certain climates better than
others. The rock maple (or sugar
maple) is one of the handsomest, hav:
ing deep foliage, and will bear consid
erable ill-usage, thriving where some
trees fail. As a shade tree it has no
superior, and where a residence is sur
rounded by them the value of the farm
is largely increased.

CULTIVATING AN ORCHARD.
Sod is a detriment to an orchard.
Trees require a cool, inoist, rich soil
Cut through bluegrass sod, even after
a heavy rain, and you will find the
ground hard and dry. An artificial
fertilizer would find little chance to
reach the roots of the trees. There
are several kinds of orchard grasses
that are widely advertised, but
clover. The roots keep the surface
mulching.
into the soil.
fertilizers.
But while clover probably possesses
the most good points of all grasses,
or root crop between the rows of trees
is doubtless the best care an orchard
can have. It keeps down the weeds,
benefit the crop and also the trees.
A friend who had an unfruitful orch-
ard stumbled upon this knowledge.
His potato fleld bordered the orchard,
and as he lacked room he ordered the
first three rows of trees plowed up.
The next season he was surprised to
find a fine crop of appies on the trees
that had been plowed around. The
reat of the orchard was as barren as
usual, He extended his experiment
and soon had the entire orchard under
cultivation, and one of the finest apple
orchards in the country. Of course
it is troublesome to raise potatoes In
an orchard, but it certainly pays to do

utilizes every foot of ground, and stud:
les how to get the greatest return
for the soil and labor.~J. L. Irwin in
The Epitomist.
RAPID GROWTH OF FOREST
TREES.
If it was not generally known how
quickly timber could be grown on land
that had been cleared of primeval for
est, there would be many waste places
planted with trees. Most people,
when measuring the diameter of a tree
and counting the growths of each year
to ascertain its age, get the impression
that is the average growth for all
trees of the same kind. This is a
mistaken idea, as trees will grow to
the size of one foot in dlameter on land
that has been cleared and laid to the
sun for a few years in one-third the
time they will among the large trees
of an original forest.
Thirty years ago, when pulling up
stumps on the homestead, an oak tree
was torn out by the roots that show.
ed thirteen years’ growth and meas
ured thirteeg ches in diameter close
to the ground. When visiting In
Susquehanna County, Pa., I happened
where a carpenter was finishing a
house with pine lumber, some of it
twelve inches wide. He informed me
the last crop on the land was potatoes
and the rows could be plainly seen
when the timber was cut.
During one of my rambles through
the forest many years ago, in search
of wild bees, a line led me on strange
ground. While searching the tree I
came across an old board fence that
was supported in position by small
trees. There was nothing to show
the land had ever been cleared, and 1
concluded the fence had inclosed for-
est for pasture when the pioneer had
only a little cleared. On making
inquiries I found several persons, not
old enough to be in their prime of life,
who had seen a fine crop of wheat |
growing on the land.~—J. H. Andre in |
New York Tribune.
RAW MATERIAL ON FARMS,
Crops are grown for use on the farm
as well as for market, hence the value
of a crop does not depend solely upon
what it will bring wheg sold, but also |
upon the uses to which it may be ap-
In fact, a crop
may be worth more in the barn than |
in the market, as it is 80 much raw ma

meat, milk, butter or other products,

Whom Kipling Called the Greatest.
In his capital blography of Cecil
Kipling was interview in 1898 as to
his opinion of Cecil Rhodes, he de
scribed the Prime Minister as “the
greatest of living men.” While every
one may not agree with this enthusias-
tic statement, it yet remains that thease
who know Mr. Rhodes best are those
who estimate him most highly, though
they admit not being able entirely to
understand him. Despite his vast
wealth and powerful influence, he is
the most democratic of men, brusque,
unconventional, his clothes designed f
for comfort rather than smartness. He
is an omnivorous reader, devouring
history, blography, and fiction with
gusto, his favorite novel being “Vanity
Falr.,” His mansion at Groot Schuur
is filled with antique furniture and
rare china and paintings.
In London there are, according to
the latest directory 1,500 families by
the name of Smith, 960 by the name
of Jones, 700 Browy families and 350
Robinson families.
CARDS A QUEEN'S FAD.
The principal hobby of the Queen
Regent of Spain is the collecting of
playing cards. She possesses a large
number of curious packs, many of
which have no little historical interest.
One set, made of ivory, is belleved to
have belonged to Prince Eugene, who
fought with the great Duke of Marl
borough, and to have accompanied
him In all his campaigns. Queen
Christina also owns some exceedingly
rare cards of Egyptian, Arabian
French and Spanish manufacture.
FOR WOMEN
ERS.
One of the latest occupations which
women have taken up is that of em-
balming. A training school for wom
en embalmers hase been established
by a French woman, who has taken
at several European institu-
tions and has had had an extensive ex
perience as a trained nurse The
{dea advanced by her is that the bodies
of women and children should be cared
for after death by women, and she is
supported in it by many
doctors and other persons of standing
in the community.

HOW THE TIRED WOMAN RESTS,

tip back and allow her to get her feet
on the mantelpiece, There she site

This seems more rational than the

more normal. Bo is the course of an:
other woman, who always, when she is
tired, gets out of a tight-fitting gown
and a corset, sits back in an easy
chair and eats an apple. If she is
very tired she takes two and in peri
ods of great distress she has been
known to consume three. Then she
arises, a giantess refreshed, assumes
conventional costume once more and
returns to work.
All these are comparatively harm
less ways of resting, and even the

room are not of necessity painful to

fesses with shame and confusion of

she always scolds the children.
“Nothing else seems to rest me,”
she laments. “1 know it is dreadful
but when I come home after a day's
shopping, tired out, I always scold the
infants. Luckily, they have come tc
the point when they don't mind it
especially.”
Fortunately for children at large
most mothers do not find rest in that

He Was Not Allowed to Draw on the
Tablecloth
A story Is going the rounds of New
York studios just now which deals
with the experience of a French artist
who is not unknown to fame in his
own country and who recently visited
New York. He has since returned to
Paris, and the story can be told,
though the artist must remain name
less.
He dined alone one evening in the
Holland House, and he was well
pleased with his dinner. While ling-
ering over a coraial he decided to
| show his approval of the meal and ser.
{ vice by drawing an elaborate sketch
on the immaculate linen cloth which
covered the table. A walter discoy-
ered him and protested mildly. The
Frenchman waved him to one side and
continued to draw. It was a Paris
cafe scene which he was doing, and he
was interested. The waiter went to
the head walter and complained that
the artist was spoiling the tablecloth.
