OF GARDEN VEGETABLES IN Auruxx-
Many things, which are usually sown
in the spring, would be better SOM in
the jalE and especially when we con-
slider how lille time there is Cor do
ing all things in the spring. Parsnip,
carrots, beets, onions, and many other
seeds, may be safely sown in autumn.
The seed will not perish, if covered BY
the earth, Cabbages, parsnips, carrots,
spinach and onions are sowed to the
best advantage in the fall, when it is
desirable to get them early the next
season. Miller's gardner's dictionary
says, s'to cultivate parsnips, sow TIE
seed n, autumn, soon after they are
ripe; by which means the seed will
come early in the following spring, and
let the plants get strong before the
weeds will grow to injure them. The
young plants never materially suffer
through the severity of the season"
Cobbct's American gardner asserts
that ssear!y peas would be best sown
in the fall, could you have an assur-
ance against mice.-We all know what
a hustle there is to gel. in early peas.
IL they were sown in, the fall they
would start up the moment the frost
was out Of the ground, and would be
ten days earlier in spite Of every effort
made by the spring sewers to overtake
them y

SHOOTING Most persons !,
will remember to have. seen or. heard
Of the splendid phenomenon Of those
brilliant meteors on the morning ofthc
18th Of November, 1888. Various
and discordant themes have been forus-
ed and published, to account far these.
shooting stars, as they are commonly
denominated.-one Of these theories
makes them Asteroids, and contends
for theirannual return. In New Or-
leans paper, "The Tines z public at-
tention Is called to the heavens on.the
night Of the ! eth and 9Th pfthis month. !,
"A look into the heavens on 4 clear
night is always rewarded, even i no.
thing else appears but "the eternal
lamps the steady members Of the up
per regions; therefore we add our r.
