hat now a large variety of uroducts
:nown by the general term of bone
meal are made. The varieties consider
ed in this bulletin are raw bone-meal,
iroduced by simple grinding, steamed
one-meal by steaming and grinding,
md "glue-free" bone-meal, obtained
jy grinding what remains after the
jlue has been removed from the bones
jy cooking. These are each further
classified according to the fineness of
.heir particles. The fineness of a bone
seal is ascertained by passing the ma
terial through a series of sieves, with
meshes of regularly decreasing size,
md weighing the different sittings. It
las long been held that phosphoric
icid in bones and bone-meal is in such
orm, as to be quickly available to
plants, when applied to the soil. Bone-
gan all section line roads are, by law,
and most of the laid out roads are the
same. This width allows the row of
trees to be planted eight feet from the
fence, giving a nice sidewalk for school
children and calling neighbors, an im
portant matter on dirt roads. The rem
edy that suggests itself for narrow
roads Is to set the row close to the
fence, in the field or out, with walk
outside of it Jn the discussion of best
kinds I see that some recommend fruit
trees. Experience has repeatedly shown
that this is a mistake. Where tried, I
have seen long rows of cherry trees,
even Horelloes, dead or half dead.

The essential thing to do. and It Is of
prime importance, is to produce all the
food crops on the farm that are neces
sary to sustain the necessary laborers
and stock and a surplus for market.
On farms remote from market, farmers
cannot successfully diversify their ag
ricultural pursuits. With the establish
ment of good roads and manufacturing
enterprises throughout the country, the
demand will be increased and tho abil
ity to transport products enlarged. But
it will pay the farmer to rotate his
crops and diversify them sufficient to
meet his own wants at home. Let him
not only build up his nome, but his
land. No handsome residence with all
the evidences of thrift and happiness
looks in place on a farm whose soil is
depleted of humus and given over ts

Best plants -of the blackberry and

four or five Inches long and planting
about eight Inches apart In drills.
Good plants are thus made In one sea

the hill or between the rows, are also
used and make good plants If carefully

the currant, gooseberry and grape may
be made as soon as the leaves drop.
New growth should be selected and cut

cuttings may be set at once,eight inches
apart In rows, leaving one bud above
ground, or they may be tied In bundles,
buried in sand and kept from frost un

Good plants are also made by layering,

THE ILLUSTRATION SHOWS A RAM OF THE HERDWIC X SHEEP, ENGLAND.
meal has been considered profitable for
application to light, sandy soils, espe
cially to those low in phosphoric acid.
During the past decade many tests
save been made by various experiment
ers, to determine the actual availabil
ity of this form of phosphoric acid, as
compared with that in Apatite, South
Carolina phosphate, and other mineral
ihosphates, as well as superphosphates.
The summary of these experiments
may be given as follows:
1. The superior value which has
hitherto been accorded to undissolved
bone-meal as a fertilizer is due sole
ly to the nitrogen which it contains.
2. Undissolved bone-meal as a phos
phate fertilizer is no more valuable
than are the raw mineral phosphates.
3. Hereafter it must be classed with
the latter, rather than with high grade
phosphates containing available phos
phoric acid.
In such work it is well to look away
ahead a generation or so, to realize
that the trees we plant may not be in
their prime, under 20, SO, 50 or more
years. As to kinds, it is a pretty safe
rule to plant natives that flourish in
your own section. Maples are good
most anywhere sugar maple pre
ferred, but beware of too many of one
kind. Let us remember that we are
planting for the public as well as our
selves, and break the monotony by in
terspersing here and there a walnut,
tulip poplar, oak, hickory, elm, linden,
ash, hackberry, honey locust, box eld
er, etc.. or a whole row of any of the
best of these where easily obtained. It
will be noticed that contrary to the
common idea, a mixed row may be
beautiful. I have seen this verified
where, in clearing land, several kinds
were preserved without trying to have
the row straight, or by trimming up
4. As a phosphate fertilizer it yields a young growth that has sprung up
no better results than mineral phos
phates, whether tried alone or with
superphosphate, on loams or sandy
soils, on soils rich or very poor in phos
phoric acid, whether with grains or
with turnips, mustard, or other cru
ciferous plants; either in the first or in
succeeding crops.
5. The various kinds of bone-meal
show no essential difference in these
results.
6. The best form in which to apply
bone-meal is as "dissolved bone-meal,"
i. e., mixed with 60 degrees sulfuric
acid, at the rate of 20 per cent for raw,
and 40 per cent for glue-free bone
meal. 7. For stocking land with a supply
of phosphoric acid, "dissolved bone
meal" is better adapted than is super
phosphatet Protect the Trees. If an orchard is
worth planting it is worth protecting.
Some orchardists of course live in to
talities where there is no need of pro
tecting because there are no rodents
to be a menace. But in the thinly set
tled regions the ravages by rodents is
very great. The best protector is a
shield of wire and lath, the wire be
ing used to hold the lath together.
The cost is small and the benefit great.

Itre Moths and Swarm.
This subject has been written on be
fore but will bear repeating, as it is
aiostly amateur bee keepers, where
Sees are kept at all, that read only
tygricultural papers, as, if they would
ake regular bee journals, and espe
cially procure a bee book there would
be no necessity for them to write to
any one to know how to clear their
bees of the moth worms, says J. W.
Roase in Journal of Agriculture. In
the first place a good strong colony f
bees with a queen are practically moth
proof of themselves. We have seen
some so called moth proof hives, but
as moths can go wherever a bee can,
a moth proof hive is a humbug; but
if the bees are strong in numbers they
can protect themselves against the
moths. When moths do get in a hive
they can be removed by lifting the
frames containing the combs out of
the hive and with a pointed knife lift
them out of the comb. They can be
easily detected and found by the white
appearance in the conb where they
have buried themselves. Remove all
trash or webs that may be found, and
see that the bees have a laying queen.
If the bees are in a box-hive, or gum,
so that the combs cannot be removed
for examination, the case is hopeless,
as hive that cannot be looked Into
is bo good when moths get into It. A
question was asked by One "How
along the highway fence. Such was
the case .in front of our own little place
In Michigan.- Whatever others thought,
it was very pleasant to us to have in
plain view white oak, black and red
oak, linden, sassafras, butternut, shell
bark, pignut, three or four kinds, all
sweet, and one fine bitternut, and last
in a damp soil, one grand, native elm,
in whose drooping branches the hang
bird annually swung his purse. Where
there was room, I put in a maple or
chestnut, and in narrower spaces a
white pine or Norway spruce. I would
not, however, recommend chestnut in
most Indiana soils.
No doubt many are preparing to plant
this spring, and should be well In
formed as to distances, kinds, etc.
Would It not be possible to send a
little circular to the county societies,
giving the proper information? Be
ginners early always want to set too
close, often paying for or digging dou
ble the number needed.
New York, after her long experience,
has made 70 feet the legal distance,
and Michigan law says not less than 60
feet. These long openings may be
broken for a time with some small
tree or large shrub or evcrgreen.as dog
wood, service or Juneberry, mulberry,
papaw, red bud, blue beech, black haw,
Mountain Ash, purple fringe, etc. Nur
sery trees are generally the best root
ed. In any case, set small trees and
avoid tall poles. I have seen beautiful
rows of golden and weeping willows,
the latter not hardy enough here. Lorn
hardy poplar, also, should be avoided,
as short lived. There is a tree, how
ever, that grows like Lombardy that
might be substituted the Bolena pop
lar. It appears to be hardy as does
the Carolina poplar, a very rapid
spreading grower. Both are found in
the nurseries. I have not mentioned
the cucumber tree which is often beau
liiu, but I am not making a special
point of naming the kinds, I would
rather desire to press the point of not
planting too many of any one kind.
Take, for instance, a long stretch of
any one kind of maple. The monotony
of so many trees almost exactly alike
may become tiresome, but if the oppo
site side of the road has a different
tree, or the row of maples is sudden
ly broken by elms, walnuts, lindens or
any other kind, you are ready to throw
your bands and cry eureka! I have
seen this monotony wonderfully re
lieved by inserting an occasional ash,
elm, wild cherry, or most any other
kind, and you feel like thanking the
thoughtful planter for his care.
I will close by adding that, could pro

are hard to propagate from cuttings.
Ail cuttings should be placed in rich,
well prepared soil and thoroughly cul
tivated the following season. In severe
climates protect in winter with a mulch
of coarse manure or straw. There are
some advantages in propagating your
own plants. You can continue those
varieties that do best in your partic
ular locality and soil. You can trans
plant them as soon as your ground is
properly prepared. You can use more
care in transplanting and fill in the
missing hills at leisure. The care of
young and tender plants, as with young
and helpless animals, creates a per
sonal interest and love for them, which
insures better protection in the future.
If, however, you have not this natural
personal interest within you no affec
tion for the things cared for then
trust the work to other hands you

From tha Cakaao Past: "Tha
Uoa, sir," said tha chairman at tha
delegation, "Is aa important one, but

wagered a matter of three glasses ef
beer and two cigars oa it, also, so there'
Is a double reason why you should bo

"Fire away," said the query editor
shortly.
"Well, you see It's this way," ex
plained the spokesman. "Over In our
ward there were two mea named John
Jones, and they were father and son.
Is that clear?"
"Perfectly. Go ahead."
"Well, last night they were, both

to-day when we were making up a list

Insisted on putting down 'John Jones,
Sr..' and 'John Jones, Jr.' "
"Quite right," asserted the query edi
tor. "That's what we came to ask you
about," returned the spokesman. "Of
course, we all knew who was meant,
but technically"
"Technically it was exactly right,"
interrupted the query editor.
"Sure?"
"Sure! Of course, I'm sure. How
else would you refer to, them?"
"Oh, if you're so dead sure about it
we're not going to dispute you, but you
ought to take all the technicalities Into
consideration."
"I haver thundered the query editor.
"If you can advaace aay reason why
they should be referred to in any
other way, firs aheat If you can't, get
out and let me go on with my work."
"Well," said the spokesman slowly
and deferentially. "I'd figured it out a
little differently. You see, the old man
lived down stairs and the boy lived on
the floor above, and the fire started in
the basement Consequently, it stands
to reason that the old man died first."
"What of it?" demanded the query
editor.
"Why, when the old man died the
young man ceased to be 'junior,' didn't
he?"
"Um-ah "
"And if he did he was not John
Jones, Jr., when he died. Consequently
no John Jones, Jr., died at all. That Is
the way I figured It out, but, of course,
a query editor Is always right, and If
you say that"

walking with Mr. Evarts one day along
the banks of a stream that his atten

Washington, according to a tradition,
had thrown a dollar right across. The
water was wide, and Lord Russell
looked doubtful. "You know a dollar
went further In those days than It goes

insinuated. "Ah," said Lord Russell,
quite equal to the occasion, "and it

Symptoms of Anthrax and lilackleg.
Stockowners occasionally appear to
have difficulty in distinguishing be
tween anthrax or charlion and sympto
matic anthrax or blackleg, writes, the
veterinarian of the North British Agri
culturist. But the distinguishing char
acters are well marked. Anthrax is
readily communicable to man, horses,
sheep, and even occasionally to pigs,
and carnivora which have eaten the
flesh of cattle. Blackleg occurs spon
taneously only In cattle and sheep.
Anthrax occurs usually in adult cat
tle, blackleg in young animals and
adolescents, seldom before they are six
months, not commonly after two and
half years. The anthrax is more sud
den and rantd In Its course, death In
many Instances occurring In an hour
after the animal has been seen grazing
or ruminating. The spleen in cattle is
almost invariably greatly enlarged
with dark colored, imperfectly coagu
lated blood, but there are no notable
external swellings. The blackleg pa
tient is noticed to be dull for a few
hours, and even in acute cases the fatal
issue does not ensue until ten or twelve
hours after the characteristic symp
toms appear. The emphysematous
crepitating swellings about the back
lions or shoulders are eminently char
acteristic, but there is no enlargement
of the spleen as in anthrax. The bac
teriologist isolating the bacilli from
the spleen-pulp, the blood, or ear of
the anthrax patient, or from the local
ised muscular swellings of the black
leg subjects, has no difficulty in dis
tisguishing between them. They dif
fer in size, contour, and motility. Some
of the lower animals show notable dif
ferences when injected with the infec
tive products of these two diseases.
Rabbits and mice are not injured by

well as the guinea pig, are killed in a
few hours by inoculation of anthrax.
Putrefaction quickly destroys the bac
illus of anthrax, but not that of black
leg. The bacilli of both diseases find
entrance to the body by much the
same channels. They may be inhaled.
Most commonly they are swallowed
with the food, as occurs with cattle
grazing in Infected meadows, and
horses eating . contaminated, usually
foreign oats. They may be implanted
on abraded skin and mucous surfaces,
as in anthrax in its familiar form of
wool-sorters' disease in man, or in seiz
ures in sheep from scratches with dirty
scissors during shearing. Both disor
ders are liable to be spread by the dis

CAUSE AND CURE OF HEADACHE
Ah eminent physician says the best
treatment for headache is preventive,
and if we would all allot eight hours
for work, eight for play, and eight for
sleep, we would rarely suffer from this
cause.
The headache which comes from dis
eased eyes is most common and least
recognized. Its symptoms are pain in
the eyes, temples and over the brows.
Hot water is a very valuable stimulant
for the eyes.
For nervous- headache a hot bath, a
stroll in the cool air or a nap in a
cool, quiet room will often be found
successful. A headache from fatigue
may be helped by pressing a sponge
wet with hot water on the nape of the
neck and on the temple:?.
Bilious or sick headaches are com
mon to the first half of life, and some
times stop of their own accord when
one reaches middle age. They come
when a person has eaten food which
does not digest readily, and a careful
diet is imperative, sweetmeats and pas
try being especially dangerous.
Neuralgia is caused not only by coo
air, but by acidity of the stomach,
starved nerves or imperfect diet Heat
is the bes'. remedy aim mustard plas
ters applied to the Elci&ach and legs
will do more good than any medici&e.
Cold water applied to the nerve3 in
front of the ear has been knotTi to
work magic in chasing away uscralgic
pains.
Headache may be caused by diseased
conditions of the blood, by nervous
irritation and by inflammation of the
nerves of the head or adjacent tissues,
this last being Infrequent Liver tor
pidity and catarrhal troubles have
much to do with headaches, as they af
fect the blood. Nerve irritation comes
in many forms. The nerves terminate
throughout the body, in the muscles
aad oa mucous surfaces, ia delicate fil
aments and little round bodies. Con
tinued Irritation of' these terminals will
cause headache.
