In a bulletin on "Cabbage Experiments and Culture" Issued by the Maryland agricultural experiment station It Is asserted tbat the susceptibility to rot and disease of cabbage growing 011 very rich, highly cultivated laud seemed to be due more to somcthiug unsuitable lu the soil rnther than to the direct attacks of bacteria or fungi. During very rainy weather In the heat of summer young and apparently vigorous cabbage plants will wilt und die. If the weather is morerately dry and the soil loose and well cultivated, cabbage will grow vigorously and seemingly resist disease oven If the soil Is known to bo infected with germs. It was noticed that a patch of cabbage planted on a piece of land thut had been used to grow celery tor several years grew very well until heavy rains began to fall In > V' * - '? h-.<4 PATCH OP CULTIVATED OA13BAQE. August. In the bright sunshine which followed the plants wilted and died. The crop was a failure except a por tlon of the lower corner, which was on a poor clay knob, and there a few good heads matured. Due consideration was given to the fact of poor drainage and also to excessive amounts of water about the roots, to which might be attributed much of the failure. Still It seemed a plausible conjecture that there might be extraordinary amounts of soluble salts in the soil and that they would have a poisonous ana, one a ?an ~ acre in size, that had been manured and planted to truck crops for many years and upon which cabbage had rotted badly the preceding year was again treated with tea tons per acre of rotted manure. This was plowed down and the land was prepared for the crop. Plots were marked off and treated as follows: Plot 1?Complete fertilizer, 1,000 pounds per acre. Plot 2?Check, no fertilizer. , Plot 3? L.lme, sixty bushels per acre. Plot 4?Sulphate of potash, 300 pounds per acre. Plot 6?Muriate of potash, 300 pounds per acre. It had been noticed in some other fwork under similar conditions that muriato of potash seemed to have the effect of promoting the vigor of the plants. Fifteen varieties of cabbage were planted across tho plots, nine i varieties of French and six of American origin. The plants were set June , 28. They started off nicely and grew well until the first week of August, at which time there were incessant rains, followed by bright sunshine. All the plants on all tho plots wilted ' down and only a few recovered. Most i of those wilted died in a short time ( with black rot A few lingered on, but did not mako satisfactory heads. < <1 11 HINTS FOR BEEKEEPERS. | " ! If you expect to get a crop of t i1 honey take good care of your ? I! bees. ! ; Don't imagine that you know | " ' it all and cannot learn anything i by reading a bee Journal. | t In the production of extracted ? 1 honey give seven frames in tho I eight frame super and nine ( t frames in the ten frame. t 1 Don't put on your supers bof fore the bees are ready for them, ; | c i as you gain nothing by doing so, > * J but only render it harder for the ; J; bees to keep up the necessary <! heat ; r The necessity of having a neat 1 and attjpctive label with the | i name ah<i address of the pro- ( ; ducer on every package of honey Jj ; put upon the market is well un| derstood by the enterprising beej | keeper. n1 The long top bar is better for 0 use In old homemade hives, as ? the staple spaced frames require accurate Inside dimensions. in Fruit culture cannot be carried ! on successfully without bees to vn effect fertilization through carrying pollen from one blossom to 11 y] another. j? The disposition of an unproflt- ;; u able colony to store honey may ! H, be materially increased by giving hi tbem several combs of batching ! J brood from an industrious hive. I Um M i USEFUL CONTRIVANCE. Easily Constructed 8pace Saving Feed Box For the Horses. As tbe space on tbe first floor of the horse barn is often limited, any device that will enlarge it without expense Is worth by.ving. A farmer in Woodbury, Cona,, has put In a bnndy, Inexpensive fixture that is useful the year through. It is described thus in tbe Orange/Judd Farmer: He built his big oat bin in the loft, tinned it carefully to keep out mice and connected a galvanized iron lender pipe to the bottom of it, bringing this down to a place near the stable door, where a box was nauoo up wuq a cover. This cover can be opened, but will not atay open. The oats flow down, i' SPACE SAVINO FEED BOX. [From the Orange Judd Farmer.] partly fill this box and stop because the bottom of the chute Is covered. It is easy for the busy teamster to dip out what he desires to feed. This chuto will conduct oats, wheat, barley or any whole grain, but clogs with ground feed. To put up the leader Is a quick and easy job, for a three inch leader comes in two foot lengths that are Just right, and the elbowa are made with tight but movable Joints that may bo turned in any direction, permitting the worker to follow uround a post If necessary. As the Joints flt tightly Into one another, no soldering is needed.
