Raising Turnips and tSeets.

BrGeSlca rapa, the common turnip.-
Prime seed aud rich land. kept clean and
mellow by thorough cultivation, constitute
the essential requisites III successful tur-
nip culture. Transplant few of the best
beets and turnips early in the growing
season and save the seed. Prepare the
soil, drill in or plant by hand. The seed
of certain Varities of turnips should be
planted soon after Indian corn is put in.
The seed Of other varieties should not be
sowed until the middle of Summer in the
latitude of New York city and Buffalo.
The finest crops of field turnips that we
have ever met with were produced from
seed sowed about the 1st of August
In many instances farmers clear the
forest from a piece of ground free from
grass, burn the surface over about the
middle of Summer, sow the seed of some
such variety as the early white fat" or
the " early white six weeks . turnip, and
"bush it in" If the soil is not deep and
mellow, our own practice he's been to SOW
the seed prior to narrowing the ground.
When seed is sown broadcast, there is
much danger OF scattering 1t too thick.
When there are no stumps or roots to OBJ.
struct seed drill, it is always better to
SOW the seed 10 rows about thirty inches
apart, SO that the young plants can be
| thinned without injury to the crop by the

THE GRAND PACIFIC HOTEL.

One of the most marked institutions of the
out growth of life IN our larger centers OF pop
uatlon Is the great hotel, and no feature Is
more notable and RENAL kabe in New Chicago
than the vast caravansaries that are to make
her the hotel city of the continent. The larg-
est of these, and the largest hotel structure in
the world, is the Grand Pacific, cut of which
we give in this issue, at once the pride and the
marvel of the Garden City. Its immense size
and elegance are well Indicated III the eDgrav-
ing, and very reliable in suggestvencss as to
the appointments and adornments of the inte-
rior. The Grand Pacific covers an area OF
ga 00O square feet. an entire block, bounded
by Clark, Jackson, LaSale and Quincy streets.
Opposite, on Clark street is rapidly rising the
vast government building, also occupying an
entire square. The material of the fronts OF
the great hotel is the beautiful olive tinted
Ohio sand stone. The structure cost over one
million dollars, aud its furnishing BY tAe less
ees, Messrs. George w. Gage, David A. Gage,
and John A. Rice, nearly four hundred thous-
and dollars, an expenditure warranted by
their twenty years lease, and securing
throughout a richness elegance, and soidity
that will give enduring attractIveness to the
hotel, and carry its fame among travellers all
over the globe The carpets of the house,
ADMINISTER, AubissOn, Wilton and English Brus-
sells, are all III new styles, and largely IN spe-
cal designs, and aggregate over Sir acres. The
beautiful carpets of the corridors, eleven feet
wide. amount to Orer q mile I'D length. The
features of the hotel that most strike the WIS.,
itor and guest are the two immense interior
courts, used respectively for the grand office
and the Office arcade. The principal Dining

FARM, AND HOUSEHOLD.
CUitiyating the White Ash.

The value of white ash for timber is so
well known that it may seem almost SUI
pertiuous TO name it. There is scarcely
farm implement, from rake-handle up to
Il reaper or mower, of which the tough
white cak does not form a part. But the
cultivation of this tree has been. and Is
stlll, sadly neglected in regions where
good timber for the purposes named is
and ever Will be needed. The time must
soon come when the implements required
for agricultural purposes on the far West
ern prairies Will be manufactured there,
anG good timber must be had therefore
II requires no great stretch of ima gination
to see that II profitable market will soon

OF supply. The cultivation Of such tim

grown from seed, which may be obtained
Ia unlimited quantities and very cheaply.
The seeding may be easily transplanted
without fear of loss, and they will succeed
in any good rich soil At first the seed
lngs appear to make slow progress in
comparison with cottonwoods and willows,
but, When fairly established, their growth
is rapid and in every way satisfactory.
As soon as the trees are a few inches in
diameter the timber is ready for use, and
henceforward continues to increase with
age. Farmers who are in need, or likely
to be, of good timber should net neglecl

sum mer-Pruning the Grape.


Many persons who indulge In the habit
of pinching the ends of the new growth
beyond the second or third cluster, to
induce more perfect ripening, imagine
| that this results from the arrest of the
sap which enters the fruit instead of being
expended in making new wood This
mlsapprehension is due to a misunder-
standing of the true theory Of the sap in
vegetable growth.
In Summer pruning the vine, we should
allow one or two leaves beyond the first
cluster of grapes, according to the vigor
of the cane, for if the vine be allowed
| such extension of growth as is natural the
shoots are sometimes indefinitely length
ened, and the leaves are correspondingly
small. But if properly pruned, the re
and consequently capable of celebrating a
proportlonate quantity of sap to be ex-
pended exactly where we want IL, In the
fruit and its connecting shoots.
All that is necessary to observe is the
habit of the vine, In order to estimate the
amount of pruning necessary; since, if
pruned too severely and warm wet wealth
erensue, enlargement and disease are apt
to follow: Above all. do not pluck or
mutilute the leaves in Juxtaposition to the
fruit, fer the leaves are the lungs of the
plant, and as the Leaf surface is destroyed
so will the health of the plant and its con-
sequent ability to perform its functions be
impaired; but, as before stated, if the
pincbing back be performed as soon as the
shoot has made one and sometimes two
leaves beyond the last bunch, those left
are correspondingly developed
For the same reason In rearing bear
ing cane, the aterals are pinched to GER
tain proportions to induce the formation of
stout, healthy canes.--1he Western Ru-
