SAVING SEEDs.-1here are many seeds
that professional gardeners will not buy
Not that seedslnen do not furnish good
seeds, for as a rule those grown by them
are all that can be desired Still where
earliness and good quality are especial
objects, it would be impossible for them
to spend the time and care requisite in Sc
lections for the price, many times told,
that the purchaser would be willing to
pay; for the Improvement Of varieties Is
attended with extreme care and expense,
such as amateurs and professionals only
know. The Brassica tribe is good il
lustration of this. They easily degener-
ate and run back to original types, and arc
only kept in perfection by the most care
full selections. In saving cabbage seeds,
for instance, none but the most perfect
heads, not the largest, but the best formed
and earliest should be selected. These
should be carefully preserved through the
Winter, exempt from the frost. In the
Spring they should be set in rich SOIL the
head having first been cut, so that the
central stalk may easily burst through.
All side sprouts should be carefully taken
off, letting only the main shoot seed, and
of this the central or top portion should
be saved separate. This is the secret by
which some gardenerers are so successful
in leading the markets. So with other
seeds. Save the finest, not the largest,
specimens. in flowers seeds also of the
most perfect blooms should be saved. 1t
is the practice of the best growers, both
in this country and Europe: hence the
high price asked and obtained for such
Il has got to be a fine art, and as such is
worthy the attention of the amateur as
well as the professional. Therefore if
you have anything you want to preserve
or improve, YOU may do SO by paying at
tention to these suggestions and the die
t4tes of common sense, and you will also
profit by the knowledge that you are con-
stantly gaining thereby.

A Cheap Ice House.

Let me ask through the columns of
your valuable paper what would be the
cheapest mode of constructing an ice
house suitable for an ordinary sized fami-
ly. and about how much it would REQUIRE.
Celomo, Mo. go G. W. N.
1t is well understood that ice keeps bet
ter in large bodies, yet the majority of in
quiries of this character contemplate cheap
houses in which to preserve ice for family
USE This luxury need not be denied any,
where the winters are cold enough to form
the ice, as cheap house may be provided
to supply all demands of the family, if
properly constructed. A few dollars ex-
pended at the outset for lumber willmake
house that will last for years and but
little labor in winter-when there is COM
parative leisure-will replenish the stock
Office Persons accustomed to an ample
supply during the heat of Summer, would
rather deny themselves Of any other lux
ury than the invigorating influence of
this refreshing commodity. When ice
cannot be had, snow is sometimes used by
being packed, and water poured on and
allowed to freeze.
For cheap house we give the follow
ing plan: Draw one large load of saw
dust and spread on the ground on the
north side of your horse barn; then draw
the ice Sawed in square cakes), and build
up square pile, some eight by ten feet
and seven or eight feet high. Then sci
no scantling and build board house
around it, two feet longer each way thar
the ice, then fill in saw -dust around, ant
two to three feet on top, and cover will
boards and slabs. We have used freely
during the season, sold to picnic parties
given away to sick neighbors, and have
plenty of ice yet"
Here is plan for more permanent
house: Make frame ten feet square, o
studding two by ten inches, and eigh
feet high. Board up on each side, and FL
in with saw-dust. Single the roof. witt
ventilator on top; put three or four inch
es of saw-dust on the ground, and twice
as much on top, when the ice is put in
Bank up around with dirt, which not onl,
forms drain, but cuts off all chance of
draft of air from below If saw-dust can
not be hau, chaff or fine straw will answe
the purpose-W. Rurdl.
