with flower beds, and have had many vari-
eties say twenty kinds of roses, and nearly
one hundred kinds of other flowers. lhave
planted on the south side of my buildings,
next to the passage to the barn, pluns,
peaches, and grapes. The peaches have
not done well, nor the plums, so l cut the
plum trees of, and grated them with the
Green and Purple Gage, only three or four
years ago, so that have to prop the small
branches. My grapes began to bear last
year; l had about bushel; and | should
think about double that quantity this year.
I have set out some ounce trees, but they
do not bear yet.
Besides the trees and grape vines, l have
annually raised about ten or fifteen bushels
of potatoes, six or seven bushels of beets and
carrots, some English turnips and ruta ba-
gas, and few cabbages and onions, as many
our folks wanted to use. We also had
beans, peas and corn, what we wanted to
use green; l have annually about three or
four bushels of dry corn, one bushel Of pop
corn, and sweet corn enough to plant myself
and supply my neighbors. Also, l have
annually raised cucumbers, water and musk
melons, summer and winter squashes, one
or two hundred, or one thousand pounds Of
pumpkins. All this has been raised on less
than half an acre of ground, including build
ings and driveway-and have had more

Keeping boquets IS an important cousld
Grafton. Let two clusters Of fresh gathered
flowers be introduced into sitting-room
place the one in the mouth of a narrow
necked jar of water, and arrange the Other
over shallow dish Of water, and it will be
perfectly fresh, days after the former arc
faded. Ifa larger dish with water in it, Is
placed below, and bell glass set in the
water, so that no external air can enter, the
flowers may remain perfect say camelias,
etc, for a0hoIe 1Ceeks, because they are sur
rounded by air necessarily moistened by
vapor from the plates.
If you want to be successful in transplant
ing, don't be afraid of working in dull wealth
er. If you are shy of "Scotch mis-" buy
an India-rubber macintosh. Nothing is
SO cruel to many sorts of trees as to let their
tender ibres Parch up in dry wind, or a
bright sun. Such weather may be fun to
you, but It's death to them.
Hives, in which swarms of bees of the
previous year have died, should be kept
clean and dry, and out of the way of mice,
for the purpose of hiving new swarms in
them.
Some of the old gardeners have an idea
that old cucumber and melon seeds produce
plants more fruitful than those from new
seeds. The most luxuriant plant IS produc-
ed from the good, sound plump new seed.
STIRRING THE Son.-As soon as crops
appear above ground, the soil should be
carefully stirred around them. This is one
of the advantages derived from drill culture,
and very important one it is during dry
seasons. The deeper the ground is loosen
ed, the better it will support vegetation the
loose ground on the surface acts as a mulch
ing and prevents the rapid evaporation of
the moisture from below. The air is also
allowed unimpeded access to the roots, fac
ilitating those electro-chemical changes up
on which the growth of the plants so much
depends, Heavy summer showers more or
less consolidate the surface of all soils; sur
face stirring should therefore follow immedi-
ately after rains, and never allow weeds to
gain sufficient headway to suggest the use
of the hoe, but let the cleanliness and free
dom from weeds be a consequence of repeat |
ed surface cultivation.
Sweet corn, summer squash, and vegeta-
bic marrows, may be planted at intervals of
two or three weeks, if a constant supply of /
tender vegetables is anticipated
Peas, tomatoes, etc, may be hastened to
maturity by pinching out the points of the
plants. Checking growth will induce a
tendancy to early fruiting.
In transplanting, always puddle the roots
in mortar of soil and water, unless the
weather is dull and showery.
Lawns must be frequently mown to look
well; rake the cut grass quite clean. A
hard broom will answer for small plots. In
more extensive places, the patent grass or
daisy rake is indispensable Cut early in
the morning when there is copious dew
and clean up Immediately, if you wish to
economize labor. A smooth, green lawn

what Cam be Done in a Garden.

Thirty years ago purchased an estab-
hshment, consisting Of a dwelling house,
barn, carriage and wood-house, calculating
to make it a permanent residence. There
was attached little land for a garden,
on which were Just FIVE apple trees. and in
front three Balm Of Gilead; the trees were
all about six inches in diameterat that time !;
but two Of the apple trees were hollow, and
[ cut one of them down, after trying to
make it do something and finding 1 could
not.
Well, all the apple trees bore something
for fruit, and so Grabbed and sour they
would make pig squeal. At this time 1
