FALL BEST TIME TO SET OUT GOOSEBERRY

Expert Tells How to Prune and Train the Vines. Lato fall, according to an expert gooseberry miser. Is the best time to set out, tho plant. "They start growth," he says, "very early In the spring, nad when spring planting Is successfully done it must be done very onrly. In fact, It usually needs to bo done earlier than tho ground Is In proper shape to be worked properly. I have tried some spring planting, but not with very good results; therefore, I have decided that it is best In this latitude especially, to plant thom in the fall of the year." Ho continues: In selecting a site, always select a well-drained site, and when tho ground Is In good condition to work prepare It deeply and thoroughly. When transplanting always cut back the dry or Injured roots to fresh sound wood, and avoid exposure to sun or drying wluds; cover tho roots with moist, mellow, surface soil and tann, firmly. I et my plants five feet apart each wa. so they can be worked out a little i-dch way. Do not allow the adjoinlug crop to encroach upon tho bushes. To insure good growth it is best to give dean, thorough cultivation from tho early spring after they are plantod In the fall till about midsummer. The fertility of the soil about the I'uehes may be most economically maintained by occasional applications of barnyard manure. They must have fertility if they grow and develop good marketable berries. I'nbleached wood ashes, spread

evenly over too grouud. are partial

The Yolks of Eggs.

The color of the yolk of the egg

seams often to be affected very notice

ably by a change In tho food. When

fowls are closely confined in winter

or summer, it often happens, especial

ly if a ration is deficient In green food, that the yolks are pale-colored. In oue Instance a much deeper orange

color in the yolk followed a change in

feeding to green clover und alfalfa.

One lot, where pale-colored yolks were

tho rule, laid oggs with orange-colored

yolks after thoy had been given the

run of a burn tloor covered with dry

clover chaff and loaves. A change In color of butter Is often noticeable in

tho same way when cows are turned to pasturo after dry feed.

Parasites on Sheep. Some writers claim that sheep ought not to be pastured on land more than

one year before It Is plowed and re-

sotfded, owing to parasites, but It has been show that sheep have been kept free from parasites by the use of tar, turpentine and salt. Rore two-Inch holes In a pine log. fill with salt and smear tar around the top, and sheep will tar their noses while eating snlL

Sheep soon learn to eat tar. One sheep raiser keeps It mixed with turpentine

and salt where it is accessible at all

times. About one-half pint of turpentine to one peck of salt Is the propor

tion.

Wood Ashes for Orchards. Tho ashes from apple, pear and

peach trees contain about 70 per cent

of lime, and tho crops of fruit borne

every year also contain lime. When orchards fall it Is always profitable to apply lime, and It should be done at least once in five years. Wood ashes are preferable to lime for orchards, but the lime Is much cheaper. Lime will also prove of benefit to grass that may be growing in an orchard, and it Is destructive to certain grubs and other orchard enemies. It is best applied by plowing the orchard land and broadcasting the lime over the surface.

Rubber Covered Roads. Experiments with rubber asphalt roadways coveriug a period of six years are reported to have shown very satisfactory results. Rubber asphalt Is claimed to be more plastic and more adhesive than pure asphalt and resists higher Umiporatures. This product, which Is manufactured under a patented process, ponnits cold applications of the asphalt, which are said to possess all the advantages of hot compressed asphalt without Its drawbacks.

again I havo learned that

pruning is better than spring for the

gooseberry. I now do all my planting

anu pruning in uie late rail after the sap has all gone down and I have mugh better success with thom than I did when I tried the spring planting and pruning. I have found thai a good plan Is to grow them in bush form with about alx bunches to the bush. Then by adopting a renewal method of pruning the oldest bunches and allowing two strong new ones to take their places, fresh vines can be kept at all times. I cut out all the other new canes that come from tho bottom and shorten back tho two loft to about two feet, to cause them to branch out at the proper height. Should the experimenter wish to increase his stock of any of the varieties he may roadlly do so by layering a few of the lower canes or making cuttings about eight Inches long of the new wood pnmed out and planting them about six Inches deep In moist, mellow soli.

Alfalfa Enriches the Soil. Alfalfa, like corn and cotton, demands certain conditions of the soil and certain constituents In that soil. Every crop demands certain foods. All crops except alfalfa and the other legumes obtain practically all their food, including nitrogen, from tho soil. The latter crops use nitrogen, but got It from the air. Alfalfa takes nltrogon from the soli only during the first few months of Its growth, and thoroaftor not only takes Its own necessary supply from the air. but a large surplus which It stores In the soil, available for whatever crop may follow. Other crops take murh nitrogen from the soil, but contribute nothing to Us enrichment. From Coburn's "The Hook of Alfalfa."

Profit In the Dairy Herd. An Ohio dairyman has kept an accurate record of the cost and production of his ton-cow dairy for one year, says the Homestead. The total cost for food and labor was $388.40, or an average of 138.81 per cow. There wore 6S, 333 pounds of milk produced, from which 2,024 pounds of butter were made, which sold for an average price of 2S cents per pound, or a total of 1731.72. The calves sold ns vnnl

A Kansas farmer makes a practice of hogging down corn by the use of a portable fence, and last year made his corn thus fed net him 41 conts a bushel. One man claims that for the cost of harvesting a 40-acre field of corn a hog-tight fence can be built around the field where a cattle fence, barbed wire, is already there. Raw farm land should have a dressing of long manure plowed under lu the fall, and a thick dressing of fine rotted manure spread broadcast In the spring and well harrowed In. The custom of hogging down corn In the fall or the year has been practiced for a great many years on American farms, but It Is only of recent years that farmers have come to know Its definite value. Tho value of humus Is emphasized where an old barn or house has been left standing In the middle of a field, as the crops are usually much superior to those on tho surrounding portions of the field. Feeding animals need exercise, but not so much as should be given breeding animals. It Is best to promote the tendency toward laziness, allowing just enough exercise to maintain the health of the body. If the pasture Is short In the fall the lambs may be turned In the cornfield to pasture. They will eat grass nlong the fence rows and the lower blades of the corn, but thoy will not Injure the corn In the least. Land Intended for fruit or vegetable garden should have a heavy dressing of long stable manure spread evenly over the ground and deeply plowed under. This should be done In October, or before the fall rains set In. Where there are bare spots in the lawn sod, sow a little new crop grass seed and rake It in. liefere winter sets in a thick dressing of fine, sifted, rich manure should be spread over the grass; rotted manure Is tho best fertilizer. In selecting Btock to bo bred for layers, the male blrdB are quite as Important. One must be careful that tho males are descondantB from prolific layers. The best layers are also obtained where tho sires and grandsires arc also from stock noted for their exceptional laying.

TOMMY WAS A MAN. A True Story of Self-Control Related By a Chicago Merchant. The following "really truo" Incident Is told about a little fellow still lu tho knlckorbockcr stage, who works for a Inrge Chicago paper houso. One day he was called to tho telephone and nfter listening a minute turned pale and hung up the receiver quietly and hurried to the manager's office. The manager, however, had gono out to lunch, so tho boy left a note reading, "I hav to go hoani. Tommy Barret." The manager found tho note when ho returned, but soon became busy with important matters and forgot all about the boc. Three days later, on Monday morning, Tommy Harret came back to work. To the other boys, queries of "Been sick, Tommy?" he maintained a rigid silence. Ho worked as hard as usual and finally the boys ceased to question him regarding his absence. Neither did thy insist again after

his second refusal to accompany them at noon for the usual 5-cent lunch of coffee and blsmnrcks, having come to the conclusion, as they expressed it, that "Tommy had a grouch." One day tho manager was called at noon to inspect a certain grado of paper in the storeroom on tho top floor. As he and his foreman wended their way through the huge rolls of paper they heard the sound of low

sobs. Silently they peered down the long aisles of paper rolls and finally In the center of ono narrow one they

saw the pathetic figure of a little boy. The aisle being too tubelike for tho

portly form o. the manager, he bade the boy come out

It was Tommy Barret, his face

flaming with embarrassment, his

cheeks tear-stained and dirty from

contact with the grimy little hanJs.

'Why, Tommy, what is it fight with

one of the boys?" questioned the manager.

"No sir, faltered Tommy, now

striving manfully to raise his voice above the threatening sobs.

"Then what was It?" ihe manager

laid his hand on tho boy's head reassuringly. Tommy bit his Hp for composure, then, dry-eyed, answered firmly, "My mudder died last week."

The manager turned away as the

chain of memory wafted him back to

to his own similar loss years ago, when it took the united efforts of a host of relatives and the entire community of a sympathizing small country town to comfort him with choco

late drops, "little pies," and miniat

ure express wagons; and here, ho

thought, was this little chap working in silence and controlling the misery

of his heart until ho could steal away

at noontime and sob it all out alone

among the paper rolls.

"Havo you come up here before to

cry?" the manager Inquired when he

felt sure of his own voice.

"Yes, sir,' Tommy answered, timidly,

adding apprehensively, "but don't fire me. sir I won't do It again."

"Fire you!" the manager ejaculated. Well, I guess not; a boy not as high

as a yardstick, and with a man's selfcontrol." Tommy lookeu up thankful

ly at this assurance.

"Now run and wash your face," the

manager continued kindly. "You're

going to lunch with me at 2 o'clock."

An hour later Tommy, with face

glossy from recent battle with pumice stone soap, was partaking of a substantial lunch with his employer, who waxed cheerful, confidential, even chummy, to put the boy at his ease.

As they finished the dessert he nominated, and elected Tommy "boss" of 24 boys at the envelope table, but not the slightest reference was made to the boy's bereavement for the manager understood the fineness of

Tommy's feelings and respected them. Chicago Tribune.

HALLOW-EVE IN IRELAND. With a Fiddler, a Fire and Feasting, Night is Spent In Merry-Making. Of the many festivities which we havo among the remote hills of Ireland Hallow-eve Is looked forward to with most pleasurable anticipation by the light-hearted youth, says Soumas MacManus In T-e Delineator. On that night the young people will Indulge In their merriest pranks and their greatest tricks nnd most facinatlng magical mysteries, and, not least, they will enjoy not merely apples and nuts, but the rarest disnes in all of the twelve months. Like Christmas, Hallow-eve is a home time for our people. The mountain kitchen, In which the family and friends of tho family are going to spend Hallow-eve, in all probability, occupies the whole width of the house and half the length of It. There Is a great open hearth from which the high-piled turf and bog fire sends up dancing flames with tho winsomest, dancing, yellow light, which makes shadows leap and bound like ghosts on the walls and nlong the bared rafters overhead, and glimmers and shimmers on tho patterned delft which, crowded In close rows, adorns the sand-whlted dresser. There are Band-whlted chairs of oldfashioned country pattern, and short forms, and three-legged stools, nnd stools yclept "creepy," In plenty. Emergency seats are to be had bypressing Into service the side of the "outshot" bed in the kltcuon corner, and tho half-emptied bags of meal that sit by the wall-side down the floor, nnd the vagabonds of the company would strive among themselves for these privileged bed-seats that particular position being tho unalienable privilege of the aforementioned vagabonds of the countryside, because, having all tho rest of tne gathering before them nnd under them, thoy can rake the company with arrows of sarcasm the night long. A local fiddler, with whom tho family is n favorite, honors the household, maybe, with his presence that night, or elso a wandering piper, who always finds his homo within tho first houso ho meets after night falls. Tho fiddler or tho piper, as tho caso may be, has tho seat of honor In tho chimney corner for in our mountains the musician Is prince. fireathlng.

Tho following seven points seem to have been sufllclontly proved to admit of no doubt: 1. The double skirt will be a featuro of nearly all tho now gowns for dress occasions this winter. 2. Soft, thick silks of the poplin description as well as moire antique and volvet, will be freely adopted. 3. Transparent scarf coats of tulle or chiffon will be general ravorltcs In alliance with tho evening or ultraelaborate afternoon toilets. 4. Numbers of the new gowns will be trimmed with fur, bands of chinchilla, skunk, fox or musquash forming a narrow or deep border, according to tho tnste of the wearer. 5. One of the popular furs of the season will be the gray opossum.

HINTS FOR REMODELING LAST YEAR'S MILLINERY Utilize Odds and Ends of Lace, Fabrics, Wings and Feathers. A celebrated milliner once remarked: "There is nothing to waste In millinery. No matter how old articles may be, If kept with care they may bo used again." And this state

been such that odds and ends of lace

and fabrics, ornaments, wings, feathers and similar decorations could all be utilized. Of course, if these various decorations have been packed away thoy probably will need renovating before they can be used. If a felt hat looks shabby after a vigorous brushing it should bo Tubbed thoroughly with a piece of crepe, provided the felt is dark. If the hat is light, white book muslin or thin crinoline must be used. Some milliners use suede kid for felt hats when the ravages are slight White nnd light color felts and beavers may bo cleaned by rubbing thoroughly with white commeal, but

Denver Society's "Polar Hunt." One of the most novel of this fan's social evenings was a "polar party," given at the home of Miss Edith Trog, ler, says the Denver News. The unique feature of the evening was a hunt for tho north pole. Girls clad In white were hidden In out-or-tho-wny corners of the yard, stable and house, and each young man, as an arctic explorer with chart In hand, set out In search of the polo. The path Indicated by the chart was often filled with difficulties and hardships, and placards along tho way told of frosted toes and fingers. When nt -last the polo was discovered, a cold shoulder and Icy glance in some cases sent him away without his prize. Tho hunt for candy poles was another entertaining featuro, and tho placing of an American flag on the polo, blindfolded, was an exciting one. Partners for the grand march in the
