HORTICULTURAL.

OF late years the people of this re-
giOn have taken so much more inter
est in the cultivation Of flowers and
ornamental plants than was formerly
thought suitable or attainable, that
the difference is very manifest as one
passes along the roads. This is an
evidence of civilization and taste far
more than of pecuniary ability, for
we often find the most abundant and
beautiful flowers where there is every
indication of narrow finances and
humble ways s-of living.
This is perhaps owing in great
measure to the faculties afforded by
the great florists and seedsmen who
furnish rare and beautiful plants and
seeds at very trifling cost, whose ad-
vertisements reach almost every one
and whose goods are sent by mail in
ever so small quantities, to suit the
means or wishes OF purchasers.
But We are glad to know that the
old-fashioned way Of gathering seeds
in neighbor's garden. and sharing
roots with each other, is still some
what in vogue; both because there is
real delight in sharing these lovely
out growths of Natures hidden

There are startling rumors afioat
with regard to the building of new
line of railroad from Wellsville to
Olean by way of the Honeoye. If
built, it is to be double tracked; the
old line to remain only for the pur-
pose of local traffic. A corps of en-
gineers have been over the route and
appro, ed it. There still remains a
question, however, whether it will
not, instead of coming here, run from
the McDougall stand south and de
bOuche near Corning. In the alb
sence of reliable information, no opin-
ion can be formed as to how Wells

that the road is to be double tracked

A BUTTER maker in Ulysses, who
sold nine hundred dollars worth last
year, says lie is making preparations
to double the amount this year. We
commend this mans example to
every farmer in the County. : There
may not be many who can double
the amount Of last years product,
but there are very few who cannot
produce some more this year than
last-one and all can try to do 50.
The way to try effectually is to be-
gin now. Take better care Of your
COWS than you did the latter part OF
last winter and you will be amply
compensated for the care and feed by
an increase of milk and butter.
