the route leading from Hunter toward
the eastern portion Of White Pine Coun-
ty has noticed during the summer
months the well cultivated garden on
Murray Greek, which beautiful stream
flows into Steptoe Valley. Generally a

was allowed to cultivate his garden year

after he had seen number Of excited

"Can l gain any thing by growing
grass seed, for a lawn, In the autumn?
II so, state the best time" Thus writes
a gentleman who feels disappointed be-
cause he did not get ready 10 make q
lawn in the spring, and who hardly felt
satisfied at the advice we gave, not 70
attempt to sow grass seed, for lawn,
late in May. Grass seed needs mois-
ture, and will hardly terminate in hot,
dry weather, while the weeds will get
such start o, er the slow-growing grass
seed that even tnat which terminates
will be choked. Our soils are thickly
seeded with coarse, hardy weeds, and
we must give the grass seed good
chance and a fair start, or they will lose
the game. We have known some peo-
pie get the land designated for lawn
raked off nicely before they obtain grass
seed, causing n delay Of several days,
and during all this time the weeds were
getting a good start. One Of the quick
est and best lawns we have ever known
made, was on the estate Of Thomas
Leighton, Of this city. The grass seed
was sown about the LIST Of September, and
made full growth. A light dressing Of
well-rotted manure was thrown over
for winter protection, and by the mid
die Of the next May the grass was a.
nearly perfect as could be desired. On
account Of the occupation of the ground
we were unable TO sow grass on what we
designed for lawn until November Of
last year, but thought we would try H.

from Chattanooga, which resulted in
victory for the "Plugs"" by a score of
Is to z. The Chattanooga CONNER
cial, speaking of the game, says:
"Ihe nine that went up was one
which was gathered together in Il
short tine, with no practice, but was
composed of fair average players, and
did az well as could have been expcc-
ted under the circumstances.
The boys took the 6 o'clock freight
train, arriving at Cleveland about 8
O'Clock. The were met by the Plug
Uglies, in uniform, and escorted to
the Oceec HOUSES where rooms had
been provided f8fstham. After get
ting in good trim the parties went to
the beautiful ball grounds, and the
fun commenced. The Chattanooga
were short three men but took in
some of the juniors. At first the
game was contested, but the want of
practice was shown plainly by our
boys, some very bad errors being
made in the field while the batting
was far below the average of the
Lookouts last year. The game was
played with ten men.
Our boys are greatly pleased by the
way in which they were treated at
Cleveland, and are full of praise Of
the Plug Ugly nine, and of the Cleve-
land young ladies. They desire TO
publicly express their high apprecia-
ton of the courtesy paid them, as
well as the base ball skill of the
Plugs.
After the game the two clubs re-
turned to the Ococe House where the
Chattanooga were entertained by
their Cleveland conquerers in the
good style of that hotel"
