PRINCE OF WALES
Who Bess for a laving and Docs It
Smoothly
The Prince of Wales is back at his
old haunts around 23d street His royal
appellation does not indicate his sta
tion in life for he is a professional beg
gar but his nationality for he is ex
tremely English The title was bestowed
upon him by his fellows in panhandle
craft of which he is an eminent expon
ent His method is to approach a pass
erby preferably one in evening dress
and say
Beg y pardon but I say sir could
you tell me of an English organization
in this city
If the other refers him to the St
George Society he says
Ah but they doirt meet until next
month giving the exact date
In case he is referred to the British
Consul he says he has been there but
could not see the Consul then launches
out a story of his misfortunes Its the
usual thing Son of a wealthy Man
chester manufacturer come here to see
life and buy a stock farm remittances
failed to come very haid up and no
friends in town would be glad of any
pecuniary assistance however trifling
Often he concludes by saying insinu
atingly
Youre an English gentleman your
self arent you sir
This is his trump card and with
youthful citizens is sometimes very suc
cessfully remunerative The Prince of
Wales is short plump neatly dressed
T suave and mild of manner and rather
nervous and jerky of speech It is more
than a year since his last previous cam
paign in this city New York Sun
More than laconic
Henrietta said Mr Meekton you
know you said almost two hours ago
you were going to tell me just how
much you thought the average man
amounted to

inquiry
You have said absolutely nothing

The Ox Warble Fly
The warble or swelling on the back
of cattle is caused by the larva of a
fly which attaches its eggs to the hair
on the legs flanks and neck of the ani
mal These hatch and the larvae estab
lish themselves under the skin usually
on either side of the backbone Here
they feed upon the animal juices until
ready to pupate causing the swelling
or warble When growth is completed
the grub leaves the warble drops to
the ground crawls under the most con
venient shelter such as a piece of
board log etc and there transforms
into the fly or adult stage There is a
difference of opinion as to how the
grub gets under the skin Some

SECTION OF AVAKBIE
mologists claim that the eggs are taken
into the stomach by the animals lick
ing themselves hatch there adhering
to the walls then the grubs gradually
work their way toward the surface
where they remain until fully grown
Others hold that the eggs hatch where
they are laid and the young larvae
bury themselves at- once under the
skin Whatever method is employed
the results are the same
The best way to get rid of the pest is
to kill the maggot This may be done
by squeezing them out Place the
thumbs near the base of the swelling
and press firmly until the grub is forc
ed out To prevent the attacks of the
fly in summer a mixture of four

To Destroy Weeds
The easiest and best way to destroy
all kinds of weeds is when they are just
beginning to appear above ground as
even a slight stirring of the soil will
then seriously cripple them in growth
or destroy them If weeds are permit
ted to grow however they make excel
lent green material for plowing under
but while they may nearly reach ma
turity before thus utilized under no
circumstances must they be permitted
to produce seed If no weeds are al
lowed to scatter seeds it will be but a
few years before the farm will be en
tirely clear of them It will pay the
farmer however to keep weeds down
by stirring the top soil when the weeds
are young
Holding Up the Wajjon Pole
Where two horses are driven the
weight of the wagon pole is often a
very considerable factor in making
the team tired or fretful Help the
horses all that is possible Put a light
pulley on the pole as shown in the il
lustration and carry a small piece of
jrope so as to attach to the load in the
way suggested whenever its possible
to do so The best farmers are most
thoughtful of the comfort of their ani
mals
Facts About TVasron Roads
Some one has estimated that we have
roads in this country 1500000 miles in
length over which are hauled every
year 500000000 tons of material the
average haul being eight miles at a
cost of 2 per ton which makes the to
tal cost of hauling reach the enormous
sum of 1000000000 It is urged that
with good roads the hauling would cost
only 80 cents per ton instead of 2 thus
making a saving of 000000000 per
year which is one fourth the value of
all the farm products of the country
used on the farms It is therefore
cheaper to expend a sufficient fund at
once to put roads in good condition than
to attempt to repair them every year
Varieties of Corn
Every year new varieties of seed corn
are offered which are claimed will give
extraordinary yields Farmers should
hesitate before investing in new seed
corn except with a small quantity for
experimental purposes Corn produces
only when the climatic conditions are
favorable and varieties that flourish
south of this section may fail when
brought North Frequently when the
frost has appeared late in spring and
delayed planting an early maturing va
riety may be required as an early frost
in the fall of the year may destroy a
variety that requires plenty of time for
maturing its seed Do not abandon the
old and tried varieties until experiment
demonstrates that newer kinds are
much better
Points in praying
When to spray apple trees depends
on the purposes desired Use Bordeaux
mixture when the buds are swelling
and if canker worms are abundant
spray also when the blossoms are about
to open After the blossoms fall spray
again with Bordeaux mixture and also
paris green repeating both applications
a week or ten days later In about ten
days or two weeks another application
may be made of Bordeaux mixture
These remedies or preventives are for
scab bud moth codling moth tent
caterpillar curculio and canker worm
Corn Planting
Before planting the corn crop be care
ful to have the land worked as fine as
possible Many farmers are satisfied
to plow the corn land harrow it and
plant the seed trusting to the corn
rots to spread and increase as the corn
is a gross feeder but while corn may
thrive under such conditions yet an in
creased yield over the average can only
be obtained when the ground is mane
as fine as that of a garden as then the
feedingcapacityof therootsis increased
and a larger available supply of plant
food can be obtained
Which KKgs Are Fertile
The statement is often made that
eggs from old hens are best for hatch
ing Recent experiments at the Utah
station indicate the contrary so far
at least as concerns the per cent of
fertile eggs The comparative size and
strength of the chicks is not stated
The percentage of fertility was highest
with the early hatched pullets and low
est with the old hens though the re
sults are not conclusive The fertility
of eggs averaging five days old was
300 per cent higher than of eggs aver
aging twenty two days old
Management of Hen Manure
The best method of handling hen ma
nure is to keep constantly some dry
muck earth soil or sand under the
roosts and clean it out at least once a
week Then mix all with three or four
times its bulk of dry soil or muck and
keep in a perfectly dry place1 Work
over whenever the heap commences to
heat until ready for use Such fertil
izer should not be plowed or spaded
under deeply but lightly raked or har
rowed in the ground at therthne of
planting Exchange
Melons and Tomatoes
To make hills for melons and toma
toes first dig out the earth at each lo
cation where the plants are desired
and fill with clean manure covering
the manure with earth hilling up Use
plenty of manure a wheelbarowful
not being too much and wlieu the time
for putting out the plants arrives
work the manure well into the soil
covering a space of four feet square
and dig the ground to the depth of a
foot or more
Sulphur for Potato Scab
After preparing my potato seed for
planting last season I sprinkled the
greater part of it with sulphur so that
each piece was thoroughly coated The
remainder I planted in the same field
and gave all like culture When dig
ging time came those treated with sul
phur were almost free from scab or
other disease while the untreated seed
produced tubers almost worthier be
cause of scab S F Deane
Grow Clover
In growing clover for enriching the
soil the only benefit derived in that di
rection is the nitrogen gained by the
clover The ground wil also require
potash lime and phosphoric acid
which must be supplied in some man
ner but potash and phosphoric acid
cost only about one third the sum re
quired for nitrogen and that is why
clover is so valuable in the system of
rotation of crops on the farm
Early Plants
Seeds for early plants may be sown
in boxes of rich earth and kept in a win
dow of the house where the warmth of
the sun will reach them Flower pots
old fruit cans small fruit boxes or egg
shells are also excellent For a garden
supply nearly all of the early plants
can be grown in the windows
