The management of g est the Western Fair, London, Ontario, have this year made a number of changes regarding their Attractions and Midway perform- ance. They have entered into a con- tract with a reliable New York firm to fill up the entire Midway with good clean moral shows of different kinds, and the public may rest assured of plenty of entertainment and amuse- ment when visiting the Exhibition. The Attractions in front of the Grand Stand will be of a high order and well worth travelling miles to see.

On a fine evening just after nightfall, the rustle of their wings sounds like the rush of an ex- press train. The air seems full of them. At Clandeboye, the branches of the plum and cherry trees are loaded. Blossoms and leaves are swept clean from the plum and cherry trees and the apple blossoms are being attacked. Farmers are lighting fires and hanging out lanterns over•tubs in a vain attempt to stem the invasion. The bugs flying at present are only the vanguard of the main army, which fills the ground and which will continue coming out for a month. Prospects are for an entire destruction of the fruit crop in this district. Millions of eggs will be laid to hatch out into the destructive white grub that created such havoc in this district last year. The grub pest will be due two years from this spring.. So far, the only help in destroying both grubs and beetles is the blackbird. They feed on nothing else, while either grubs 8'F -beetles are obtainable. HOW'S THIS.

The plan he followed you will endorse! He used to walk like a bald-faced horse he swung the . axe and he plied the spade, and he knuckled down at the blacksmith's trade; where - ever he worked, in the field or town, a part of his roubles he salted down. He saw the folly of spendthrift men, and took to the bank a large brass yeu; ,they burned their money as though with fire; he took to the bank a big tin lire. And now he sits in his figtree's shade and eats ice cream with a wooden spade and people smile as they look at him; he's fat and sassy and full of vim and where are the fellows who drew their wage and blew it•in, in that lonesome age? Do they lean back in the rocking chairs, serene and happy and free from cares? Have they their figtrees and stuff to eat? Oh, ask the copper who walk your beat.—WALT MASON.

Contrary to somewhat general ex- pectation, there will not be a heavy crop of apples next fall, so the orchard- ists say. The blight that affected the trees last 'year has not yet bxpended its full effect, and the result is seen in some cases in an almost total absence of blossom. The Baldwins —one of the leading commercial varieties—make no showing at all, while Northern Spies have about one-third of the normal bloom. Some other varieties of winter apples make a better showing, especial- ly the Greening and Kings, which show a full bloom. The fall apples, as well as pears, plums and cherries, have blossomed heavily and will likely be a good crop. The weather has been favorable for the e lie i o n zati on of p the blossoms and those useful little crea- tures the bees have been working hard. While, therefore, the yield of 1911 will not be a phenomenal one, the prospects are that there will be a good many more apples in the country next fall than there were last year.---Goderich Signal. CELERY GROWING.. r Directions Given by Successful Culti• vator of. Veeetable in Pennsylvania. Last year's experience proves vary forcefully that celery needs conSalera- ble moisture as well as to be well ler- tiliaed. says a Pennsylvania grower to a letter to the American Agriculturist. Nearly all et our celery plants Are started in small greenhouses, sowing the seed front the last of February to the latter part ot Marek.. Our soil is red shale loam, sand, fine siftings from coal ashes, muck and quite wen rotted manure. The houses are cbeap affairs, heated with stoves, and used for growing a few vegetable plants each spring. Seed of Golden Self Blanching celery is sown In benches, sometimes in rows three inches apart and sometimes broadcast. if we have good men to thin we tike to broadcast. In sowing by this method we use a baking powder can with small holes in the cover. A small band seeder is used for sowing in rows, but with the plow and coverer off. because we want to sift fine dirt very lightlyto cover the seed, only about one -sixteenth of an inch. Before sowing the soil is made very fine and level, because we do not want water to run from higher parts, and bonemeal and wood ashes are used to fertilize this. We use 000 pounds of the former and about 300 of the latter, for 1,800 square feet of glass. Calico curtains are used to shade these benches until the plants are up. We generally try to plow our muck in the fall. In spring the land is well disked. then eight tons ot 14 per cent dissolved South Carolina rock is ap- plied to the three acres and well`work- ed in. Then we sow muriate of tiotash at the rate of about 1,300 pounds an acre, after which We plank the ground for setting, weighting the pianker enough to give us al snttirit'ntIv firm bed. We set by hand. using two rin- gers of one hand as (libber. being %Ory careful not to get plants set too deep or so soil is over the heart. 'Ibis would keep them from irr.,evine Rows are three ftpt apart wnere we expect to blench with boards and two and a halt when it is to go Into the celery house. Plants are Qet rout or five inches apart in the rows. tt rne soil is too dry when we wish to set eve have water poured alone the row, an •i little stream, being careful to rotlow the mark, made with a light wneelt ur- row frame, along the side of a fuse. After the plants are set we per on about 1,300 pounds of 12 per rent dried blood to the acre. running it right along the rows close to the plants. As soon as the plants are four inches high in the greenbouses we clip the tops and are sure to clip again before we set, taking about half of the tops off. Sometimes the plants are clipped three times. And we thin them there to about 100 to the square foot of bed. They are often thicker. As soon as the plants in the field get rooted a little •we commence giv- ing iving them nitrate of soda, putting it as close to the rows as possible or in reach of the roots and Butting on only, a very little while the plants are mat because we want it to feed them with- out out shocking or giving them a setback This nitrate of soda is given to them every ten days, adding to the amount each time as the plants grow, so we use about 1,300 pounds of this to the acre. We use about two tons each of muriate of potash, dried blood and nitrate of soda on the three acres. That is why it is about 1,300 of each an acre. We try to keep the soil stirred around the plants all the time, giving level culture, using a 'horse cultivator when the soil Is dry enough so we do not need to mud shoe the horse. After the celery has been set about two months it should be ready, to blanch, sometimes before. One Man Crosscut Saw. It is often convenient to have a crosscut saw that one man can use for • cutting indium sized logs. The one shown herewith, turned on its end, fills the bill very, well. It consists of a blade, a han- dle, set as shown, and a bow re -en- forced with wire ;wound around it at various points. Preferably thin bow should be of ;well seasoned hickory, ash or some other tough but not too heavy wood. It is not necessary to have very mach spring in the bow, al- though some spring adds rigid- ity and tension to the saw, which can thus be run more easily. The most important CROSSCUT saw. points for the winding aro toward the ends, where the pole 10 split by sawing to admit the blade. The pole should be Only a few inches longer than the saw when laid out straight.—New England Home. stead. 00000000000000A 00 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0000000( Good business Alen always carefully calculate the cost of an article before fixing the sell- ing price.

Nerves were un- strung, the heart bad and smothering feelings came on till I thought I would choke. Doctors' treatment failed me, so I began the use of Dr. Chase's Kid- ney -Liver Pills, which I thank for ray present good health. I am now doing my housework and have a family of ten."

On a fine evening just after nightfall, the rustle of their wings sounds like the rush of an ex- press train. The air seems full of them. At Clandeboye, the branches of the plum and cherry trees are loaded. Blossoms and leaves are swept clean from the plum and cherry trees and the apple blossoms are being attacked. Farmers are lighting fires and hanging out lanterns over•tubs in a vain attempt to stem the invasion. The bugs flying at present are only the vanguard of the main army, which fills the ground and which will continue coming out for a month. Prospects are for an entire destruction of the fruit crop in this district. Millions of eggs will be laid to hatch out into the destructive white grub that created such havoc in this district last year. The grub pest will be due two years from this spring.. So far, the only help in destroying both grubs and beetles is the blackbird. They feed on nothing else, while either grubs 8'F -beetles are obtainable. HOW'S THIS.

The old man sits in hisfigtree's shade, and fills himself with• pink lemonade, and he smokes his pipe as he glances o'er the thrilling facts of the baseball scofe. He has no grief and he, has no care, and he just leans back in his rock- ing chair, and views the world with a cheerful smile, for his larder's full, and he has his pipe. The plan he followed you will endorse! He used to walk like a bald-faced horse he swung the . axe and he plied the spade, and he knuckled down at the blacksmith's trade; where - ever he worked, in the field or town, a part of his roubles he salted down. He saw the folly of spendthrift men, and took to the bank a large brass yeu; ,they burned their money as though with fire; he took to the bank a big tin lire. And now he sits in his figtree's shade and eats ice cream with a wooden spade and people smile as they look at him; he's fat and sassy and full of vim and where are the fellows who drew their wage and blew it•in, in that lonesome age? Do they lean back in the rocking chairs, serene and happy and free from cares? Have they their figtrees and stuff to eat? Oh, ask the copper who walk your beat.—WALT MASON.

Contrary to somewhat general ex- pectation, there will not be a heavy crop of apples next fall, so the orchard- ists say. The blight that affected the trees last 'year has not yet bxpended its full effect, and the result is seen in some cases in an almost total absence of blossom. The Baldwins —one of the leading commercial varieties—make no showing at all, while Northern Spies have about one-third of the normal bloom. Some other varieties of winter apples make a better showing, especial- ly the Greening and Kings, which show a full bloom. The fall apples, as well as pears, plums and cherries, have blossomed heavily and will likely be a good crop. The weather has been favorable for the e lie i o n zati on of p the blossoms and those useful little crea- tures the bees have been working hard. While, therefore, the yield of 1911 will not be a phenomenal one, the prospects are that there will be a good many more apples in the country next fall than there were last year.---Goderich Signal. CELERY GROWING.. r Directions Given by Successful Culti• vator of. Veeetable in Pennsylvania. Last year's experience proves vary forcefully that celery needs conSalera- ble moisture as well as to be well ler- tiliaed. says a Pennsylvania grower to a letter to the American Agriculturist. Nearly all et our celery plants Are started in small greenhouses, sowing the seed front the last of February to the latter part ot Marek.. Our soil is red shale loam, sand, fine siftings from coal ashes, muck and quite wen rotted manure. The houses are cbeap affairs, heated with stoves, and used for growing a few vegetable plants each spring. Seed of Golden Self Blanching celery is sown In benches, sometimes in rows three inches apart and sometimes broadcast. if we have good men to thin we tike to broadcast. In sowing by this method we use a baking powder can with small holes in the cover. A small band seeder is used for sowing in rows, but with the plow and coverer off. because we want to sift fine dirt very lightlyto cover the seed, only about one -sixteenth of an inch. Before sowing the soil is made very fine and level, because we do not want water to run from higher parts, and bonemeal and wood ashes are used to fertilize this. We use 000 pounds of the former and about 300 of the latter, for 1,800 square feet of glass. Calico curtains are used to shade these benches until the plants are up. We generally try to plow our muck in the fall. In spring the land is well disked. then eight tons ot 14 per cent dissolved South Carolina rock is ap- plied to the three acres and well`work- ed in. Then we sow muriate of tiotash at the rate of about 1,300 pounds an acre, after which We plank the ground for setting, weighting the pianker enough to give us al snttirit'ntIv firm bed. We set by hand. using two rin- gers of one hand as (libber. being %Ory careful not to get plants set too deep or so soil is over the heart. 'Ibis would keep them from irr.,evine Rows are three ftpt apart wnere we expect to blench with boards and two and a halt when it is to go Into the celery house. Plants are Qet rout or five inches apart in the rows. tt rne soil is too dry when we wish to set eve have water poured alone the row, an •i little stream, being careful to rotlow the mark, made with a light wneelt ur- row frame, along the side of a fuse. After the plants are set we per on about 1,300 pounds of 12 per rent dried blood to the acre. running it right along the rows close to the plants. As soon as the plants are four inches high in the greenbouses we clip the tops and are sure to clip again before we set, taking about half of the tops off. Sometimes the plants are clipped three times. And we thin them there to about 100 to the square foot of bed. They are often thicker. As soon as the plants in the field get rooted a little •we commence giv- ing iving them nitrate of soda, putting it as close to the rows as possible or in reach of the roots and Butting on only, a very little while the plants are mat because we want it to feed them with- out out shocking or giving them a setback This nitrate of soda is given to them every ten days, adding to the amount each time as the plants grow, so we use about 1,300 pounds of this to the acre. We use about two tons each of muriate of potash, dried blood and nitrate of soda on the three acres. That is why it is about 1,300 of each an acre. We try to keep the soil stirred around the plants all the time, giving level culture, using a 'horse cultivator when the soil Is dry enough so we do not need to mud shoe the horse. After the celery has been set about two months it should be ready, to blanch, sometimes before. One Man Crosscut Saw. It is often convenient to have a crosscut saw that one man can use for • cutting indium sized logs. The one shown herewith, turned on its end, fills the bill very, well. It consists of a blade, a han- dle, set as shown, and a bow re -en- forced with wire ;wound around it at various points. Preferably thin bow should be of ;well seasoned hickory, ash or some other tough but not too heavy wood. It is not necessary to have very mach spring in the bow, al- though some spring adds rigid- ity and tension to the saw, which can thus be run more easily. The most important CROSSCUT saw. points for the winding aro toward the ends, where the pole 10 split by sawing to admit the blade. The pole should be Only a few inches longer than the saw when laid out straight.—New England Home. stead. 00000000000000A 00 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0000000( Good business Alen always carefully calculate the cost of an article before fixing the sell- ing price.
