who practise on the meadows. AS space

OF the game the score given below must suffice to
show the way In which the work was done. The
sudden squirt which the Champions put on In the

We are often asked by inexperienced persons
W hat are the best kinds of flowers to cult
vate, where to be Obtained &C.? And as now
IS the time to get them ready for the coming
season, we will give them our experience OF
that subject.
There are two kinds Of Aowers perennial,
those which are hardy and live in the groun(
for many years, as the rose, peony, tulips, &c.
and annuals--those which all but their see(

The former is autumn; for the latter, spring
However we speak now only of the ANNALS

which contain list of near 2000 annuals-all
very fair; but after many years trial, we have
settled down to about half dozen-Astors
Balsams, Pinks, Petunias, Geranum Stocks,
and Zinnias.
There are three great dealers in these things
Hovey & Co, Boston, Mass, Washburn Co.,

whom are reliable men, prompt aud correct in

Of their articles, of about $50 pages; giving,
not only the names and properties of the things,
bat much valuable Information as to soil, mode
of cultivation, &c. By inclosing 25 cent scrip
to their address, you will obtain the book.
Yet, if you are inexperienced, even with the
