Stockman and Farmer Mistakes in Strawberry Growing Not subsoiling Planting too closely Growing small berries Planting too many varieties Using dirty second hand boxes Not cutting strawberry runners each week Placing too high an estimate on prob able profits Not keeping close watch on the leaf roller insect Using newly turned sod for strawber ry planting Allowing the small berries to go to market Not finely pulverizing the soil before planting Not studying and watching the needs of the market Not taking two or three good horti cultural journals Not cultivating at least once per week during drought Employing pickers who do too much talking while at work Not being strictly honest in the meas uring and grading of berries Allowing too many runners to grow when it is intended to grow the fruit For the Ice Harvest Farmers are more and more coming around to the plan of putting in a sum mers supply of ice during the winter season The cut shows a very conve nient way of loading the ice

requirements of his horse says Our Animal Friends He must also be ready to detect any ob ject by the roadside that would be like ly to annoy the horse and to compre hend in a glance the character of the road that lies ahead of him No quick tempered loud voiced man can expect to have a quiet obedient horse and the undue haste of the impatient driver to correct what seems to him misbehavior is one of time reasons why so many horses are dangerous to drive Much of the abuse however to which the horse is subjected arises more from ig norance and carelessness than from wanton cruelty Few persons give proper attention to the details of driv ing forgetting that it is attention to de tail which makes the difference be tween the expert driver and the un skilled The Cost of an Egg The cost of an egg in the Eastern States is estimated at one cent but this depends on the prices of grain If meat milk cut bone chopped clover and cooked potatoes are given the cost will be less not because the meat can be purchased at less than the grain but because the feeding of a variety and a balanced ration will induce the hens to lay more eggs The greater the num ber of eggs laid the lower the cost pro

Inaugurations for Sixty eight Ycara John Quincy Adams was President nntil March 1S20 and Henry Clay was his Secretary of State I frequently saw them both and have shaken hands tvith Adams at his levees as all well behaved persons were allowed to do I saw Gen Jackson inaugurated on his first term in March 1S29 and went to some of li is levees I wi l never forget the first levee Jackson held He came in as a Democrat and the doors were thrown open to all the people Adams the preceding President had been aris tocratic in his instincts and drew the line as to the people who were allowed to enter but Jackson threw down the bars I remember noticing the differ ence in the appearance of the crowd and noticed that Jacksons was rough er in appearance than Adams The great East Room was crowded and a servant was attempting to pass through with a big waiter piled up with cakes and delicacies which he held high over his head He had not gotten twenty feet in the room before his waiter and everything on it fell to the floor The crowd then seized the edibles and made away with them I was at several more of Jacksons levees after that but I noticed that he never tried again to have refreshments served at any of them I did not see another inauguration after Jacksons until last March when I went to see McKiuley inaugurated I had a seat right opposite McKinley and saw the whole proceedings I also went to lie inaugural ball and not be ing able to get a chair walked about for three hours which made me pretty tired Jicksons inauguration and Mc Kinleys inauguration were just
