SPAIN'S IDEA OF US.
& Eernarkabt, Display of Ignorance
Over There.
' The ignorance of Spain passes under
standing, says the Chicago Times-Her
ald. The proud Castillians ho prate
about their "naticnds honor" have no
adequate conception of America or the
Alnericans. In a nation 68 per cent of
irhich is illiterate, it is net strange that
popular misapperbension should be en
tertained concerning a foreign hation
thousands of miles away; but it seems
queer that the press and the publio
leaders of Spain shonld be so woefully
in the dark concerning American mat
te;e. -

ter of War, recently said: "The war
will not be confined to Cuba. What is

. waiting for the 'ord to revolt. When

lender of a band of half-breeds, has
risen against the American government

Rations For Shee:.
For ground food a mixture of 100
pounds of corn meah 100 hnLds of
wheat brat and twenty-five pounds of
til nieal has been found very satisfac
tory. Oats may t"o substituted for the
bran with good results; if the quantity
of oil meal is slightly increased.
Ground corn and oats mixed in equal
proportions is not only a good fodd;
but-a fattening one. To produce the
best results in fattening sheep they
sl'ould be regularly dipped during the
period. Corn is a highly carbonaceous
food and can only be fed to sheep with
safety when given with bran or oil
neal. With sach a ration they may
be fed during the fattening period to
their full capacity, which would beun
safe with a ration wholly or mainly of
corn.
Washicu Trunks of Fruit Trees.
TY the trunks of orchard trees, and
es- cially young trees, show signs of
the work of insect enemies, or are cov
ered with a fungus growth, they should
be cleansed. The best wash for the
purpose is made by dissolving one
pound of concentrated lye or potash,
obtainable at any grocer's, in five gal
lons of water, and applying with a stil
broom. This solution is very strong;
and while it will not injure the trees;
it should not be allowed to come in
contact with y->ur flesh or clothiig.
The trunk of the hrae should be
trashed thoroughly downward, apply.
ing the wash also to the large branches
within reach. This solutiont will kill
borers and borers' eggs, which are apt
to be concealed near the. surface of
the ground. This wnshing of tree
trunks may not be necessary, but the
-ork-is .quickly and inexpensively
done, and will do no harm. If there
is the slightest suspicion of disease or
insects, be on th.e safe side ahid apply
this wash as directed.
Manure For Strawberries.
The strawberry plantation lequires
very heavy manuring to produce its
best yield. Every year on most plants
there is a succession of berries, the
first and second pickings being al
most always larger and finer than
those that ripen later. But if the
later season is very wet, as it some
times is. we have known the later
crop to ripen up and be very nearly
as good as the first. This suggests
that in addition to the top dressing
applied in winter there ought to be an
additional fertilization, while the crop
is formir.g, and this last ehould be al
ways dissolved in water, so as to be
readily available. Nitrate of p'otash
is the best manure to be thus applied.
This is saltpetre, and costs five to six
cents per pound.. But a very small
lump dissolved in warm water and ap
plied freely will keep the vines fresh
and vigorous to the last, and will
make a grecat increase in the size of the
fruit. The labor of applying liqjuid
manure is more than its cost, and is
gr-eater than can be generally afforded
for any other crop than the strawberry.
An Easy Way to Grow Tomnatoes.
The usual method of raising tomato
plants and fruit calls for mor-e worki
and attention than the ordinary r-un
of garden crops admjand. Sowing the
seed early in hot-beds. the formation
and care of which is a matter demand
ing much daily attention to details.
and the repeated transplanting of the
young plants to render them stocky
and vigorous. all this requires work.
perhaps more work than many very
busy people feel like attempting.
While this'care and labor may be need
ful for extr-a early tomato plants, which
are to give early crops. yet it is en
tirely unnecessary for r eguilar crops of
delicious fruit. One can sow the seed
directly in the open ground as scion as
weather is suitable. or- vhat is still
more easily done, throw all good
specimens o.f the tomato (that become
e!Teeted with rot or are br-uised in any
way, aud so nna itt ed for sale) upon the
ma.nur-e heap. These tomatoes fur-nish
p)lenity of seed in the n:anur-e to give i
v-olunteer crop of tomwato plants upon
the corn or potato field upon which
this same manure is used. Plenty of
good. ripe. late tomatoes, as well as
green ones, will thus be grown at
pract-ically no cxpense. -3L1 Sumner

As for ridding the premises of fleas,
unless we knew the exact surround

might not be r.greeable if used in the

N'en Facts About tin Old Foe.
The 'odling moth should. be ban
ished. This is not easy. Spraying
alonie, as geiierally recommeided, ivill
not do it. The moth is not easily
poisoned. Light,s in the orchard do
not attract it. Sticky fly paper will
not hold the larvie Only four-fifths
of the larvm eiter at the calyx. Late
spraying with paris green alone is not
effective. Spraying before the calyx
closes does much good. Three spray
ings At. Gibbon saved eighty per cent.
of the fruit. In laboratory trials, kero
sene emulsion, sprayed while un
hatched eggs are on the leaves, is
effective. Late spraying with paris
green and bordeaux mixture com
bined. -%ith whale-oil soap or with
lead acetate and sodium arsenite, is
safe and does some good. Scraping
the bark and tacking paper bands
arouud the trunk when the larve are
1pupating will catch many. Screens in
the cellar windows in spring will con
fine the moths which went in with the
apples as larvmr in the fall.
I suggest that you spray thoroughly
with paris green within a week after
the blossoms fall, before the calyx
closes. Try kerosene emulsion when
the eggs are being laid upon the
leaves, about the first week in June.
If this fails, use paris green combined
with bordeaux mixture instead. Keep
the trees smooth and use paper bands
'around the trunk v:hen the larvo are
ready ta. pn.pste, about the last week
- in June. Remove and kill the larvo
one or two weeks later. Place bands
on again the last week~ in August.
Leave them until the-apples are out of
the orchard, then gatheH-them up and
destroy t'.ie larvo. Get the balance in
spring by screens over the cellar doors
and windows. Observe for yourfl
how many of these precautions you

The Short Check Rein.
To keep a horse from puttinig his
heal down and eating or trying to
find something to cat--for, no difer
ence how well the horse is fed, when1
he is harnessed and taken oat he is
ready for a bite of grass if attainable,
and that is not always pleasant-the
check-rein is the resort, though many
times when using a team on the road
'the check-reins area dispensed with.
I prefer the side checks, as they are
far more agreeable to the horse and
will even better prevent the horse
from putting its bead to the ground
than the over-check when both are
loosely use d.
The over-check weaLrs off the mane,
presses down on the head and helps
to keen it hot and sometimes makes
sore places and m.ars the horse's face.
But the over-check may do if it is long
enough and does not have a separate
b:it for it.
Some horses are so physically con
stuted with the neck high up on the
shoulders that their head is high
enough without a check-rein, while
othecrs may have a low neck and not
carry the head well up, an.l no amount
of cheek-rein:s will add anly grace to
their miovem1ents or beauty to their
carrlage.
To see a horse's head dr-awn up out
of its natural position looks outlan
dish, at times the hot sun blazing
down in their eves so they cannot
well see where th-ey arec going, and
they travel high, so:nething after the
style of a blind hor-se, and they soon
ge to traveling heavy: then their
sp'ring. activity and elasticity are fast
leavingi them.
A horse with a short c.heck.-ein is
incariably a slow walker and doesn't
enre to trot unless urged-audl who
can blame hilm?--and yet~ J have
often noticoa that all the short check
reins don't belong to the ungodly.

Some of the Trials and Tribulations
of an Editor.
The editor of the humorous literature
department looked up wearily from his
work as he heard A foct fall on his

visitor who bore the unmistakable
evidence of whatrthe editor so greatly

thought could not have been possible;.
yet they continued to flow in upor him,
aud he was slowly but surely realizing
the horrors of war.
"Good morning, sir," said the
solemnn-faced visito., in such pro
foundlv .sorrowful tones that the editor
was sure of his man.
"Morning," responded the editor.
The visitor coughed nervously, drag
ged a small boy out of the shadow be

tated a moment, and spokd:
"Do we--' he began.
'No, sir,' enapped the editor-, 'we

A Bullet Set in Gold.
Perhaps one of the mtost peculier pres
ents ever made by a bridegroom to his
bride. says Lndon Sketch. was that of
Maurice Gifford to Miss Thorold on the
occasion of their marriage last week.
It was the bullet which was extracted
from the wound in his shoulder which
caused the less of his arm. The gold
in which the bullet was set was dug
from a graveyard in Matabeleland, and
was fashioned in the shape of a double
headed serplent. the heads supporting
the missil". the whole making a veryI
unique armlor.
Spain's Siublst itutes ror Telephaones.
In Spain. where the tels'phone is
largely used in place of the telegraph .
an ingenious application of the phono
graph to record the telephonic mes
sages has been made. The receiving
opeator repeats the message into a
phonograph, from which it can aefte'r
ward be transcribed at leisure. This
saves the delay caused by writing the
message during its reception and in
sures greater accuracy, because the
repetition of the message for the pho
nograph is heard simaultaneously by the7
o4gal sender et the qther en4d~
