Bede once established and well care for tbriVe for twenty reeve or more with- out renewing. But too frequently, after the (meson oyer, the aeparegna field is neg- lected during the sumuler Months. Often it is pernatea to grow up in grass Dna weeds, witich rob the aeparagus ot both moisture mid plant food. This causes the plants to be. eornerwealtened to some exteet, there- by lessening next seasoo's growth. As asparagus is usually planted In rows from six to eight feet wide, there Jo ample radii between thesrows to 'bleat seem other crop after the euttiag season is over. The fertiliza- tion and cultivation of this companion C01) will greatly benefit the aspara- gus as well aVgiving some returns. Ili the asparagds section fields are often found that ere absolutely neg- lected after the last aarrest, If it is continually neglected year after year it is only a question of a few years Were the plants wit! .become eo weakened that the field will cease to be profitable. If cultivated clean throughout tiee' year and leguminous crops planted between the rows to supply humus and nitrogen, the plants will improve rather than deteriorate. FERTILIZING THE VINEYARD It is impossible to expect the full reeults of good manuring if the vine- yard has not been well cultivated. The soil should be kept well looseaK and, where necessary, should be well drained in order that any surplus water may be removed epeedily. Spe- cial care should be taken that no grass grows in the vineyard. If this is at- tended to for several conseoutive years there will be very little trouble with grass in the future. Many vine farmers make deep holes between every four vines p or deep furrows be- tween the raitas of vines, and then bury the manure In these holes or fur- rows. This method falls short of reqUirements. The aim must always be to make the plant develop its root In every directihn la, the soil. It Is then able to feed eieenly over the soil and take the necessail moisture cut of it. Therefore, manure should be epread evenly over the soil and then, pldwed or dug under. It should be borne in mind that by ecnstaetealY atapliring raore manure the pi cductIon increases eordthg1y. Later on the increased productionds no nore In a favorable proportion to the in - Creased cost of manneing. Under the circumstance's certain manure for- mulae must be used which have been found out in praetite and whiCh can be altered as is found necessary. SAVE THE VINES. About this time of year the cum.'s- bee, cantaloupe and scsaask grower begins to think that life is hardly worth living. Tere are a thousand and one way* of fighting the Insect enemies, and each man is ant to thiak that his method With the striped bug in tire best e'er. They can be overenme, and the plant breught beyad their period, lefit in places where Many vines are grown, a much,. wdrse vet is the louse. When. °nee cetaliliehed, this: bas been gnowoll to dentroy gems et vines. 'Ilene pest is a diffiaotelt one to, ninnagss. Ordinary spreyfng with kerosene emulsions is of little use, for the louse Is found only neon the einderpede of the leaves. Some experienced gardeners practise and Tecommend*a heroic remedy. Temy destroy the affected :eines as soon as Lound, to pyevent the spread of Me peat. This is ' somethipg like °table; off e limb to save a life.The salve Plan is to be followed evitit the three - cornered squash bug. These pestle get a foothold and spread from. that point as a breeding centre. If you destroy totally the headquarter% you etop the invasion. Let the field be eareftaly swathed, and when the enemy appears dig a hole a foot deep Mose to the an •fected hill, Burr the vines, insects and all, and stamp it down as you fill Pp, Some say surface covering is just as good, but the deep burying Is gofer, toed in the case of the bug it would be better to burn then to bury. In small lots of vines you are not likely to field more than one point of attack, but in large fielee there may be several. This is prebaitly the cheap- est and surest method of proceeding against these enemies. FARM NEWS AND VIEWS. One of the greatest mistakes when shipping trees is that of allowing the roots to become exposed to sun mut wind, It is abeolutely necessary to keep the roots wet from the time the treeo are received from •the nursery until they are platted, All roots tliat are injured in digging should be tut with a keen knife on the under side, eo that the mote will grow straight down. If the trees are not ready to POMO the roots may be protected by "heeling them in." I3y this is meant to ebt the tree in a trench and cover the roots with loose earth. If the weether Is very windy and dry, throw a little straw over the trees and cover with barlap. Cows produce foe, but do not int- peverieli the soil.

The belief matt be faint hearted in some mewl, but it is there. There are some 3,000 (superstitions, and in e, recent statis- tical investigation conducted by Pro- feesor F. B. Dressler, et the University of Alabama, it was found that 45 pet sent. of ittelligent student e prepaeime to be teachers believe itt one or more df tOese 31000 superstitions. Is there any truth in these super,: etations? The scientific man is lately to laugh at them an answer: "No; they represent mdrely the relies oi ancient beads; they are superstitions pure and simple And yet, only latelYe Profeseor Sigmund Freud of Vie(amts (see of the rabst eminent esychelogists ot the eley, a:sserted that„ there is a leases qt truth it many of these be- liefs. le we spill tee salt or drop a ieniass this action le not the reeult of pure 'chance; we are entitled to be - neve that there is a psYchologleal fey the action Which caused us to drop it. The dispping of oljects or the fel:turning of the same are very fre- quently ut11lo as din exprossien of, onconseldue streamo of thought, but more often they serve to represent the superstitions or odd significances ccometted with popular 'sayings. , In efder to understand the sciena tide bests for matey of these' beliefs we must tomptehend that, besides' emir wake -a -day consciousness, there is another Mend constantly active Wrth- in us—the ettbermeeious mind — whieh le constantly trying to express; itself in veriOus wen. If it la gontrary to personi instinct or iontite belief to do a certain thieg he may try to -and indeed actually perforins the action, but the unconstioue mind is always tryirig to prevent it. It tries to pre- vent the action by checks, hesitations, error's, elips of speech, action or writ- ing, and in a thoesand ways tries to prevent the individual from carrYino out the intended action. These un- conselous impulses show thenaselvee in varlets errors on our part— care- less actions, forgetfalnees, etc., which Dorm the basis for 'neatly supersti- tion% Thus, it has always been considered "bad luck" for a wonean to lose or mislay her wedding ring oa her wed- ding tour.

Hence, the foundk- tion for this If a faarried woman . signs her niaiden name eonstaittly this also Mg- nifies thot she le subeonsciously dis- contented, and tkesb Mips of the pen betray that fact, theconsciously, the wishes that She Was not Married, tind this wish cameo out Iti the automatit writing.

As a matter of fact, I be- lieve that a large portion of the my- thological conceptious of the woild, evnich reaches far into the most mo- dern religious, is nothing but psyclio- logy projected into the outer world. The dim perception of psychic factors and relations of the uneonscious was taken as a Model in the construction of the transcendental reality, which is destined to be changed again by science into psychology of the un- conscious," Thus we are led Ono a purely sci- entific view of mythology, as well as of many superstitious beliefs. By believing that things exist as causes le the outer world, while, as a matter of fact, the true cause lies in the etten tal life, we are eaabled to explain all these facts ssientifienlly and settisfae- tbrily.—New York Herald. • In Tropical Countries liver Chill Very Common In northern latitudes also the liver is a very unruly organ and remlires careful watching.

This Alpine Gap is a Famous Path- way for Great Armies. The mighty Brenner peee is the Thermopylae of Tyrol. From times im- meneerlal the northern tribes have sought the refinements and culture of the south over this wonderful Alpine °addle, first in fame among MI the gaps in the rugged Alpiae defences against the aorth, and a way which has echoed to the dying crles of war- riors and clashing accoutrements of myriad Roman legicns and to the noisy disorder of the passage of neanY armies through more than 2,000 years of restless history. Innsbruck, the Tyrolean capital, le at the aorthern terminus of this way, while l3otden, the largely Latinided metropolis of the south, lies 3,600 feet below. Innsbruck is exclusively of the northland, surroentled by Plums, aro pies and fir trees, and Botzen, like Italy beyond the mountaine, is in the midst of a region of vines, /igs and olives, Historic points crowd .one another along the Brenner. Gnildestones of the time of Caracella and Septimies Seve- rus have been found 'buried here. Some of the world's greateet generale have traveled thie path, north and sonth, and here the Tyrolese peasant, An- dreas Hofer, the simple, untaught Aus- trian hero, proved himeelf greater than one of the beet officers of.Nape: lean—National Geographic 13ulletin.
