Wilcox, of Uxbridge, has for several years made a specialty of squashes. He says: "IulS'Jilthought I should not be able to attend to them, so did not send for seed until June, and did not finish plauting until July 1. On September 2o, after a light frost which killed the vines, I har vested from forty-eight hills of Hub bard and Essex Hybrid, threo one horse loads in bulk from one and one-half to two cords in all. Single Ilubbards weighed twenty-one pounds, and Hybrids as high as thirty-one pounds, in eighty-six days from seed. This crop was raised on old pasture, which had not beeu ploughed for thirty odd years, aud which I considered worn out. It was manured with fresh, coarse horse manure, broadcasted and ploughed under, and about a pint of high grade phosphate worked into each hill. I conrsider the Essex Hybrid the best main crop squash, although Borne consumers and some dealers wdl have nothing but Hubbard. The mar rows for fall ue, and the Fordhook, Cocoanut and Low's Fay State have been satisfactory. With me the Essex Hybrid is the best cropper, and tha Hubbard next. As most of this crop was retailed from a milk wagon at from two to three tents a pound, I found it profitable." Xew England Farmer. Grafting the Apple. Grafting the Apple is the subject of Bulletin 03 of Kansa3 station, which contains many photographs of trees, one, two and three years from the graft, taken up with a.l their root3 in tact, showing tho root systems anil unions resulting from various methods of grafting. The controversy which arose several years ago over the relative merits of whole roots aud piece roots, and long or short root pieces, long or short sci ons, aud grafting low or high on seed ling stock, etc., led the Kansas station to enter upon a series of elaborate ex periments, which have been carried through the intervening years. Judge Wellhouse, cf that State, the most ex tensive apple grower iu the world, has also experimented for many years ia the same line, and this bulletin gives the results readied by him also. The conclusions arrived at are as follows: Whole root grafts possess no advantage over piece roots. On the contrary, unless the whole root stock is very hardy, a severe winter freeze or drouth may kill it. Especially is this true where the graft is set above ground on the seedling stock. In. the colder, extreme Northwestern States the har.l.est trees are made by graft ing a hardy scion of ten inches long upon a short bud. The short root piece keeps the hardy scion alive until it throws out a good root system of iti. own, like a cutting, and these roots strike deeper than the lateral systems of whole roots. Judge Wellhouse finds the two-iueh root piece best, but at the station pieces five inches long gave slightly better results than those half that length. The longer the scion, up to two feet, the stronger the growln, probably be cause of a larger lent surface; but the difference is not sufficient to cover the extra expense on a largo scale. Prob ably tight to twelve inches arc best. I'oultry Note. Gather dry road dust aud put away iu barrels in a dry place for next winter's use. It is not luck, but pluck and persis tent, applie 1 concentration to all the minor details in the care of poultry that briugs success. Don't give vermin a chance, and the only way to prevent their getting a start is to ue remedies that are known to be beneficial in ridding n place of their presence. IJurn all old nesting material and replenish with clean, new hay. Then see that the nests are saturated with coal oil or whitewash that is strongly impregnated with carbolic acid. Put the brood coops you are through with in complete repair some rainy day, whitewash them or give a good soaking with kerosene oil, aud then store away under cover for use next season. Give the late broods a chance to ruu by themselves. They will not get their share of food, nor will -they amount to much if they are jostled around by the older and stronger chicks and fowls. If a poultryman docs not get the most good, the most profit, out of his market fowls, it is because he lacks knowledge- of feeding for best results. Fight feeding is a science. Poultry men should study how to feed for best results. Keep the turkeys and geese grow ing by not overfeeding them, and giv ing them plenty of exercise iu seeking after insects, grubs and worms. Iu another month begiu to feed corn meal dough mixed with milk and fat scraps and corn, and they will theu put on fat quickly. For a breeding pen of ten or twelve fowls, a room Sxl'2 will bo large enough for perching, and a laying room, at tached to which should be a yard the same width aud from twenty to thirty feet long; a number of these breeding pens may of course be ma le under the same roof of a poultry house, and for the most successful treatment of this breeding stock, the grounds should be so arrauged, with a grass plot adjacent, that each yard may alternately be turned upon it for xercise, green food and the search for insects. The supposition that common fowls re hardier than pure breeds is not borne out by the facts. Those who hatch chicks of the common kinds lost a large number of them, only the strongest surviving, and every year they are more and more inbred. The pure breeds suffer from being pam pered by their owners in many in stances, in which case3 they do not compare favorably with common fowls, but common are of but little value compared with the pure breeds, which have been found to be more profitable iu every respect. To prevent roup is something not very easily done, as the fowls are af fected by the wtather. In cold, dry seasons, the roup does not prevail as much as in the fall, when the rains are frequent, the ground wet, aud discom fort exists in tbe poultry Louse. To guard agaiust the disease, the win dows should be so arranged as to per mit plenty of sunshine in order that the floor and walls may be warmed and moisture evaporated. While the pure air may be admitted when desired through the doors and windows, it should not be overlooked that draughts of air on the birds are liable to hasten an outbreak of the disease. Dy keep ing the floor well dustel with fine air slaked lime, the disease may be check ed ia the beginning and the room made dry. Poultry Keeper.

'T'housands of women are troubled at monthly inter nals with pains in the head, back, breasts, shoulders, 6ides hips aud limbs. But they need not suffer. These pains are symptoms of dangerous derangements that can be corrected. The men strual function 6hould operate painlessly. makes menstruation painless, and regular. It puts the deli cate menstrual organs in condi tion to do their work properly. And that stops all this pain. Why will any woman suffer month after month when Wine cf Cardui will relieve her?
