The Cry of Fire.
Early in the afternoon last Friday
our village had the appearance of a
holiday or'rather that everybody had
left town, but this was soon proven incorrect, at about 2:30 the ring of the
fire bell brought?out a good crowd in a
few minutes, the alarm having been
turned in from box three on Ann Arbor
street. The Harmon House was the
scene of excitement, and for a few
minutes looked as though a hot time
was near at hand. Flames were then
pouring out of the north side windows
of the observatory and were lashing
around between the brackets, up and
over the cornice. Everything was dry
and ignited quickly, the flames ran
high and spread with fury. Help responded quickly, tbe engine and hose
were soon in readiness and Eire Marshal Kelsey seized the hose, rushed up
the ladders to the then hot and furious
spot when he turned in a stream that
at once showed evidence of being overpowering, thus he held steady at his
post until the flames were down sufficient for others to get nearer and search
for and find the places further in that
were burning. The fire was soon out,
the black and dirty water had found its
way through to the lower floor soaking
walls,paper and carpets until they bore
anything but their natural appearance.
The origin of the scorch is not fully
known, it is believed however that it
came from a burning chimney which
was near and quite hot. A neighbor
stated that but a short time before he
had seen flames coming from it. The
fire first burned its -way through the
floor in the observatory creeping along
the window casing until it reached a
broken window light which gave it
draft and it tben require but a few
minutes to spread. It was then, that
our little fire engine again paid for
itself, as buckets and palls could never
have gained oontrol or conquered with
the start it had, besides with; the
strong nor-th-west wind that was then
blowing the*town would doubtless have
experienced a hot time. Damages to
the Harmon House will reach about $50.

TRANSPLANTING.
Conditions of Success—Puddling—Firming
the Roots—Shortening* Tops.
In a wet season setting ont plants in
the open ground is an an easy matter,
in which even amateurs may succeed.
During a prolonged spell of heat and
drought, such as is apt to come at the sea-

son for setting late cabbages and celery
plants, the gardener finds his skill put
to a severe test. The most essential requirement, according to Greiner, is that
the soil be moist—not wet and sticky,
bnt so that it will readily crumble between the hands. If the soil be dry, it
mnst be moistened by artificial watering, for planting in a dry soil, even if
afterward watered, is usually fatal to the
plants. A good rule is to always plant
in freshly stirred soil.
Many gardeners as well as fruit growers substitute for puddling dipping the
roots of plants or trees in clear water
just before setting them. This the
authority quoted has found in his large
experience to be superior to dipping in
thin mnd, or puddling, as it is called.
Another indispensable requisite in successful transplanting is the thorough
firming of the soil around the roots. It
should be packed closely and tightly.
Then draw a little loose soil over the'
firmed soil as a kind of mulch.
Another sensible precaution observed
in dry weather by Greiner and other
successful gardeners is the trimming or
shortening in of the tops of cabbage,
celery and other plants previous to setting ont. Celery plants with excessively
long roots should have the tips cut off
with a sharp knife.
The first cut, a reproduction from An-
nalsin Horticulture, shows a German invention in -way of receptacle for starting
early plants. This consists of long strips

of sacking or other cheap material, the
sides of which are sewed together. See
out. Pieces of suitable length are cut
from snch rolls, filled with earth, and in
them the seeds are sown.' When transplanted, pots and all are set in the soil.
The second cut shows the method of carrying or storing these cloth pots in flats
or trays.
Cultural Notes on Potatoes.
The subject of potatoes was thoroughly disenssed at one of the last of the
Wisconsin farmers'institutes. Here are
a few of the more important points
gleaned from a report of this meeting:
Superintendent Morrison said in re-
gavd \o cutting seed that it is a question
of;' chpipe "with %he grower whether he
\yo,vild feed the yonng plant with the
substance in a large seed piece or with
extra fertilizer in the hill. He thought
the fertilizer the cheaper. -Mr. Martin
said it was much easier to increase the
quantity of yield than to increase the
acres. He would never cut seed in advance of planting.
Mr. T. W. Terry increases the yield
per acre and decreases the cost of production of potatoes by making his land
very rich and by using tools and horsepower in cultivation. He can grow the
heaviest crop on any given area by hand
planting, but not enough extra to, pay
for the extra expense. He ^lake^'Jt^
rule neyer-p).' let i'ifeei sea Jdayligjit,'
&i<i'he i^ef er letg tlie surface crust. He
dp]es.'the most of the fitting of his potato
field after the crop has been planted.
This prepares the ground just as effectively and ao disturbs the surface that no
weeds can grow.
Professor Goff said there was no longer any more doubt that the bordeaux
mixture, properly applied, would prevent blight, or that paris green would
kill "bugs." He favored the use of §
more diluted mixture and^ ^ fftor4 *S>Ht"
