Watts built in cellar around the walls,

The following details of management
for securing quickly bearing plants, are
given by William Parry
A full crop of strawberries may be had
next June from plants rooted in flower
pots, so as to set them out in August or
September; they then will require but
little cultivation, and that in October,
when grass and weeds make but feeble
growth. Our plan of Fzeparing petted
plants after strawberry picking is over,
is to cultivate and pulverize thoroughly
between the rows, put on five hundred
pounds of guano per acre, and when the
plants send out runners, place small 2
inch pots, filled with earth and plunged
into the soil the whole depth, under the
runners to receive the roots, which will
be confined in the pot aud can then be
transplanted without injury, and will
continue to grow in their new situa-
ton the same as though they
had not been moved. Not one
in a hundred should fail, and if
the nners are cut off so as 10 throw
the whole strength of the roots into the
main crown, it will enlarge and develop
fruit stalks and buds, and bear full
crop, say from one to two pints per hill,
of the finest fruit, the following June, or
within two months from the time fplant-
ing in the September previous. By this
method there is no loss of a crop from
the ground during the summer the straw
berries are growing. One hundred
plants, so prepared, will give more fruit
the first season than 1000 planted in the
usual way. The plant forms stool
quicker, and much less time is expended
in keeping them clean. We planted
about 5000 potted plants for ourselves
in September on ground from which veg
etables had been removed they were
quite as large and well-developed at the
approach OF winter as plants set in the
spring of the same year and cultivated
at great expense all summer, and occu-
plying the ground to the exclusion of
other crops. From plants treated a
above described we got our largest berrie
and greatest yield.

The Evils of Hot Bread.

There is no law in this country to pre-
vent the consumption of hot bread but
the law of common sense, and unfortu-
nateIy that is dead letter as a govern
ing principle in the lives of great many
people. That hot bread in nine cases
out of ten will produce dyspepsia is no
newly discovered fact, and especially is
this terrible result sure to follow a per-
sistent indulgence on the part of those
whose pursuits are quiet, in doors and
sedentary. And yet the 1eformers, or
! those who call themselves such-thc men
and women who work themselves into a
white hest over the sale of a glass of
cider-will go on year after year, not
only making no cutlery against this per-
nicious indulgence, but actually filling
themselves up day by day with the hot
and poisonous gases of the oven. This
servant of the housewife can be made as
terrible stomach destroyer as the dis
tillery, and the sworn foes of the latter
are apt to be its best patrons. Dyspep-
STA paints the nose and sours the temper
as surely as dram drinking, and many
sufferers from the former, though by their
own williul acts, inveigh the most loudly
against the latter. A well-defned case
of Jim jams is the climax to course of
;ntemperance and warns the victim that
his alternative is death or immediate re-
formation. But the dyspepsia that hot
bread, mince pie and kindred abomina-
tons cause has no sudden warnings. The
man who uses them goes on making both
himself and those around him wretched,
and refuses to acknowledge that he is
sinner above those whose lighter faults he
fiercely condemns. Boston Post

ers, such as dahlias, pansies, pinks. ger
aniums, sweet williams, carnations,
gladioli, which may be preserved 80 as to
retain their colors for years. White
flowers will not answer as well for this
purpose nor any succulent plant as
hyacinthe or cactus. Take deep dishes,
of sufficient depth to allow the flowers to
be covered an inch deep with sand; get
the common white sand, such as is used
for securing purposes; cover the bottom
of the dish with layer half an inch
deep, and then lay in the flowers, with
the stems downward, holding them
firmly in place while you sprinkle more
sand over them. until all the places be-
tween the petals are filed and the
flowers are buried out of sight. A
broad dish will accommodate quite a
large number, and allow sufficient sand
between. Set the dish in a dry, warm
place, where they will dry gradually,
and at the end of a week pour off the
sand and examine them; it there is any
moisture in the sand it must be dried
before using again, or fresh sand may be
poured over them the same as before.
Some flowers will require weeks to dry,
while others will become sufficiently dry
TO put away in week or ten DAYS. By
this simple process flowers, ferns, etc,
are preserved in their proper shape, as
well as their proper color, which is far
better way than to press then, in books.

THE DEAD DEYIL-FISH.
%prawIcd i'm IIis Enormous PrOPOrtiOi
on the Aqua. iUHn Floor.


Architenthis princeps was taken out OF
his cask of brine yesterday morning and
spread out at full length on I. floor OF
the aquarium.
As the monster lay on the floor of the
aquarium its proportions could Tor the
fist time he accurately measured. Its
two long tentacIes each stretch out more
than twenty-four feet, and the length of
the body from head to tail is nine ieet, so
that the total length of the creature Is
rather more than thirty-three feet. The
furthest spread of its tentacles Is nearly
fifty feet. The breadth of the body Is
about four feet, and it is nearly foot IN
thickness The eight short arms vary In
length from seven to nine feet.
The beak of the squid resembles that
of a parrot. 1t is of a dark bOny sub
stance, and is placed on the under side OF
the head equi-distant from the roots OF
the tentacles The beak OF this specimen
Is broken, but it has been 80 replaced
that its original position and structure
are readily seen. The tongue is like that
of a snail, perhaps three inches in length,
and coated with fine teeth. The stomach
can be seen through the vents in the
pulpv bag which covers it and few bits
of thin brown bone. the remnants Of the
gills, can be pulled out to view by any
body who cares to introduce his hand
into the cavity of the head.

of the devil-fish is drawn under water by

Agricultural lettings.

Watch well your pastures, and keep
up the feed by extra fodder if needed,
since no amount of after feeding the COWS
will restore lost production.
New York state formerly supplied
Canada with cheese, and finally educated
her English neighbor to take the medal
at the centennial for the best cheese
Now Canada sends 100000 pounds
annually to England.
The marked contrasts so frequently
seen in adjoining farms is due rather to
the occupants, who differ in skill and
management far more than the land does
in quality. Enterprise and brains will
soon outweigh differences in soil.
Small hogs from two hundred to three
hundred pounds weight commanded a
better price in English markets than
larger ones, which certainly shows that
the pork eaters on the other side of the
Atlantic know the difference between
coarse and fine graded articles.
The hay crop was never better through
out the west than it is the present
season. The grass in the pastures are
very fine, which causes an abundant flow
of milk. The low price of dairy products
is partly due to the great amount of but
ter and cheese produced.
Scotch farmers are thirsty set they
have great faith in agriculture. 1t is no
uncommon thing to see a tenant at the
commencement of a lease of nineteen
years, investing $50 to so per acre on
drainage, lining and other Improvements,
and this, too, on another mans land.
Our American farmers lack faith in the
soil.
The Tobacco association of St. Louis
have resolved TO make arrangements with
known and reliable planters in the states
where the best qualities of tobacco are
grown, with a view of improving the
tobacco raised in Missouri. 1t is gene
rally agreed among the tobacco men that
the state production has been seriously
falling off of late years.

she added softly, "that a body forgets all

The little old woman's breath began
to come with labor, and Jacob made her
stop talking that Janey might read to
her instead Their the baby awakened,
and seemed to find great deal too much
solemnitv in the air, for it laughed and
chatted and spun about with most in
sabbatical levity. Jacob wondered at it,
and as he gazed the wonder grew"
with wonder came admiration; with
that softness in his blue eyes. Anybody
might have seen that before many days
that tiny foot whose shoe he so tercely
flung away would have trodden little
path straight to the warmest corner of
his heart.

Dorothy, after while. Let 1t lie in

SO Jacob lifted the child and carried
it to her. The baby was charmed by the
soft radiance, shifting rainbOwlike over
its white dress. 1t waved its small hand
back and forth in the blue and crimson
rays, and watched them wonderiDgly as
they PLAYED over DOrothy's snowy locks
Without, they heard her grooming softly
to the child, and it, in response, cooling
like dove. By and by, when the air
grew chill, Jacob and his daughter re-
turned to the room. The old head
rested back against the carved cherubs;
the little one lay quiet, having just dis

women Farmers.

The male sex has had the care and
management of farming industries 90
long and exclusively that it seems i'm
proper to speak of woman as a farmer.
Yet the farm to which the English
Royal Agricultural society has recently
awarded its first prize is managed by the
widow of tenant farmer. The family
have been thirty-six years tenants; the
farm contains 242 acres. The Judges
speak of it as "like a great market gar
den." The rotation is grass, potatoes
planted on sod, wheat, barley or oats
seeded to grass, which brings the course
to the beginning again. Fifteen men
and boys are constantly employed, and
what is unusual in these DAYS of ma
chimes, not one is used, not even a
thrashirg mschine. Labor is gheap in
England; and benevolence prompts this
weman to employ all the laboring people

GirdIinp the Earth.

The latest round the world railroad
connections talked of are as follows: A
tunnel under the Straits of Dover; the
passage of the Ural mountains; road
way on the steppes OF Asia and across
the rivers and mountains ; a tunnel or a
pontoon bridge at Behring's straits, and
then "home-stretch " through Alaska,
the Pacific States and across the CONT
nent, a matter of more than 10000
miles. Then a passenger may take
seat in London and never leave the car
till he reaches New York. All this
seems hardly more improbable than the
Pacific railroad did a generation ago.
