best. Being organic, it gives better re- 

 sults than inorganic ammonia for to- 

 mato culture. Potash can be applied 

 in the form of kelp from seaweed; 

 wood ashes in the form of kainit, 

 muriate of potash or sulphate of pot- 

 ash. Sulphate of potash is readily ap- 

 plied and easily obtained. It is in the 

 form of a salt. 



A Componnded Fertilizer. 



For those who have no intimate 

 knowledge of raw, artificial or organic 

 prepared manures, it is better to use 

 some good compounded manure. A good 

 potato fertilizer will answer the pur- 

 pose quite well. For the general dress- 

 ing of the tomato soil, a compounded 

 manure may contain: Phosphate, 

 twenty-eight per cent, fourteen per cent 

 soluble; ammonia, six per cent; potash, 

 five per cent. Apply at the rate of 

 three ounces to the square yard of 

 bench, once a month. 



In the open on the average tilled 

 ground a dressing of superphosphate 

 drilled into the rows where the toma- 

 toes are planted, at the rate of two 

 tons to the acre or about seven ounces 

 to every nine feet run of the rows, will 

 be sufficient. This will promote early 

 fruitfulness and maturity. F. E. B.

OONFIDENOE AND GOOD 

 JUDaMENT 



(Continued.) 



Well, this good hearted, sympathetic 

 friend who said he "mighta married" 

 me eighteen years ago, would have had 

 a slim chance to have dragged me out 

 of the school room; his sympathy went 

 the limit of a joke with me, as he 

 looked upon me as a lonesome "Bulb 

 Peddler," traveling around because it 

 was possibly the only thing I could do. 



Bless his good heart; this is the 

 kindness that is usually- wasted and is 

 far from sincerity. 



He is the kind of man who con- 

 siders a woman a weakling, and in a 

 million years he would not give me an 

 order. Why! Because he has the 

 wrong idea of a woman in business. 

 After I surveyed his character I sud- 

 denly had to catch a train and made a 

 speedy "get-away." 



Never would I want his order nor 

 from anyone else on the sympathy 

 platform; the foundation of the pat- 

 ronage is too weak to endure. 



Business is the same old thing for 

 the woman as for the man, and every 

 real business man knows it. QUALITY, 

 PBICE and SERVICE are roadways to 

 success; and any wise girl knows skirts 

 are not a good drawing card.

BAMBOO CANES 



Stake your tall plants, such as 

 Lilies, etc. It improves their 

 appearance and prevents injury 

 to the plants. A 3K ft. green 

 bamboo cane costs but a trifle 

 and adds considerable to the 

 value of the plant tied with it.

3 feet long, $10.00 per bale of 2000 

 3% ft. long, 11.00 per bale of 2000
