CULTURE OF CABBAGEs BY SLIPS The
slips when taken from the cabbage stalk,
are exposed sufficient time to the sun and
atmosphere to cauterize the wounded part.
In the summer, "a hours are sufficient.
and 2 or days in winter; rubbing a
little wood-ashes on the part, as recon-
mended by M. Lindley, greatly assists in
cautcrizing the wound, and prevents bleed
ing. Plant them and thcy require no
farther trouble. After cutting the cab
bages, the sprouts again afford a supply
of slips for plants, and thus a regular
succession of cabbages is secured through
out the whole year. with the certainty of
preserving the quality of the parent stock
unchanged, and of doing away with the
necessity of raising plants from seed

SWEET POTATOES IN PLACE OF HYA-
CINTHS.

Messrs. Editors A curious as well as
simple and interesting experiment may be
performed in the following manner:
Take sweet potato, place it in the mouth
of transparent jar SO that it fits loosely
uud keep it in it place by putting pins in
it. Fill the jar with water, and set it
where the sun can shine on it, or in a
place where the temperature is quite even.
Almost any place in the house will do,
as III window where it gets the light.
The progress will at first be slow; replen-
ish the jar with water as the potato alb
serbs it, keep the water up to the middle
of the potato, and soon roots will appear
from the part in the water. From this
point its growth is quite rapid. the roots
striking downward finally it begins to
sprout from the top, green leaves appear
and it continues to grow like climbing
vine, attaining yard in length, and
making a fine plant. have started sew
eral in this manner and now have one

wiNTERING BEES.


Let the bees stand out until about the
time it freezes up for winter, then select
o dry spot of ground that will rise about
one foot in fifteen, take wide, dry board
and lay it fat on the ground or al inch
or two from the ground, drive short
post at each end of the board for pole
to rest on, high enough to clear the tops
of the hives; put braces each side of the
pole, at each end and centre, slanting out
at the bottom, the tops resting on the
pole; get dry boards enough to gil up
both sides from the ground to the top
resting on the braces put the boards on
one side; take dry straw and put on 8
or 4 inches thick, then begin to store
away the bees.
Begin with the strongest stocks; set
them on the board, raise each corner half
an inch. open every ventilator at the top
of the hive !; set them one foot apart I'M.
til you get the length of the board, then
put on boards and straw the same as the
other side Cover the straw with three
or four inches Of earth. Should there be
stocks enough for another length of boards
continue it on just the same. Put the
lightest stock near the centre. Make a
tube 6, 8, or 10 inches long, 8 or 4 inches
square Oh the inside; insert this tube at
the end, at the bottom, where the strong.
est stocks were placed, the outer end to
run out to the weather with wire screen
over it to prevent rats and mice entering
if possible. Make an elbow Of foot
or 80, at the end to keep the light
from the bees; keep the end clear from
snow that constant current of air may
enter. This is the bottom ventilation.
Make q tube three feet or so in length,
the same size, to insert in the top at the
upper end of the house, and thus secure
q current of pure air at all times. and at
the same time keep the temperature above
freezing.
Should the Aparian have stocks enough
to reach 60 feet, have another tube enter
at the bottom as we'll as at the top-and
and also at the top at the upper end.
The boards and straw being all dry, alb
sorb the moisture so that but little mold
accumulates, while the current of air keeps
them healthy. The Aparian may 60 out
in the morning when the thermometer is
below zero and put his ear at the end Of
one of those tubes, and hear the bees
plain and distinct. Whenever the wri-
ter has wintered bees in the above man.
uer they have come out stronger and
with more honey than when kept in any
other way.
N. B. When the bees are put up for
winter, do it all in one day if possible,
SO that no rats or mice will enter the
straw; and should it not freeze up imme-
diately keep close watch every day un-
It'll it does, that no rat holes are made
any where about it.-Rurai New Yorker.
