American Walnut. So beautiful and durable a wood aa walnut never would have gone out of favor If It had been rightly handled.

It was a victim of raachine-mado "decoration;" It was done to death by ithe meaningless curlycues with which jjt was "adorned." If the artisans of today will eschew such mistakes, abjure tholr effort to make wood glitter like glass and treat walnut as they do oak or mahogany, there is no Reason why this peculiarly American Jroduct should not keep a high and place In cablnetmaklng.

This will not run like oil, and it is a sura preventive against rust up (By W. MIETON KELLY') The one great secret of having suc cess with the family vegetable garden is to provide an abundance of plant- rood in a readily available form. Sta ble or barnyard manures aro tho best fertilisers at all times. Commercial lare excel lent In their places, especially when It is desired to force some of tho early varieties of vegetables, but their use requires that, the "teoll be in a high state of tilth and that the gardener have an expert knowledge of their uses and functions. To properly prepare a garden I be lieve In plowing under a heavy application of manure In tho fall, and then in the spring harrowing In another heavy coat of well-rotted manure.

After putting on what wo think Is enough we double the amount and the chances are we will have it about right Constant cultivation should be tho rule, for this will keep tho soil In an ideal condition, physically, for the roots to grow in, besides keeping the weeds in check. Allowing the weed seeds to germinato and quickly destroying them early in the season will save a large amount of work during the summer, besides conserving much needed moisture Eliminate all of the old-fashioned teds and plant everything In Ions' rows, so that most of thei cultivation-can be done with a horse. There need not be an unpleasant amount of hand work if properly worked with a horse and cultivator. Leave plenty of room. at the ends for turning around with the while cultivating.

Pig feeding and pig care is mostly made up of common sense matters like seeing that the mother Is proper ly fed, the youngsters sheltered as they ought to be, and that they do not get chilled during the first few days of their lives. This takes considerable, caro and watching, but there is nothing about it that anyone cannot do.

Feeding the little pigs is a Job that falls to tho mother for the first two or three" weeks of their lives. If she is in vigorous health prior to the coming of the pigs, this part of the job will take care of itself. When the pigs show an inclination to try to eat when tho sow Is fed then the -hog grower will haveto bestir Imself and make ready to take care of their growing appetites. During the first days of tho pig's Ufo he will have to be watched ta see that he does not get the life crushed out of him against the sides of tho pen and that he does not wander outside and freeze to death. Properly built pens and hog houses will take care of this part of the Job.

Where tho sow is kept in a big hoghouso her pen should be so tightly built that the littlo fellows cannot slip out into tho other pens. Thero ought to bo a sort of a fender around the walls of the pen, so the pig cannot be caught against the wall by the sow. When the weather is very cold, some sort of an arrangement whoro-by the litters can come In a reasonably warm house should bo made. A great many pigs are lost every winter through exposure in bitterly cold weather. Some hog raisers put artificial heat In their houses and keep them warmed up for tho first four or flvo days after the littor comes.

This cannot be done on the average farm, but a good warm place can be provided. dance of vegetables for a largo family. After tho soil has been well enriched and well fitted we are ready to plant It the plan has been well-worked out all that Is necessary is to plant each variety at the proper time in the right place. The family garden should be planned to suit the needs of the family, and no two families will agree as to tho amount of each kind of vege tables to grow. The time to plant varies so largely with tho locality that I will offer no advice as to dates of planting.

The date also varies with tho season. If wo will study out tho time it requires each crop to mature wo may be able to plan other crops to take their place as soon as they aro con' sumed. A few crops like blood beets, egg plant, melons, onions, peppers, toma toes, and winter squash, require a whole season to mature. Other crops like lettuce, radishes, early beets, summer squash and string beans will ma ture early enough to allow other crops to be grown on tho same soil after they are gone. The great object in doing this tn the farmer's garden is to keep the soil from Erowinjr a rank crowtn it weeds later in the season.

it is not my purpose to aavise wmcn varieties to grow. Study the seed catalogues, talk with' successful deners In your own locality, and form your own conclusions. I should do more harm than good by commending varieties for all local Itfes. Get interested fa the garden early by sending for the various seed catalogues and garden implement cat aiogaes. Good seed means success, and good garden Implements are a pleasuro to handle.
