HANGING BASKETS.

There is nothing more beautiful among
floral ornaments for winter than a we'll filled
and cared for hanging basket, such as many
have been accustomed to see only miseraby
glled and more miserably cared for. Such
persons cannot be blamed for not having
any particular liking for them, for the really
beautital hanging gnrdcn,' as it might be
called is unknown to them.
A great many snppossta hanging basket
is merely a small. round receptacle Of some
kind. filled with aaeW common climbers
and dropping plants. These may be made
quite pretty, but the finest s.yle of hanging

PRODUCTIONS OF STATES.

Iowa now takes rank as the greatest wheat
producing State, Minnesota comes next,
then Illinois, Wisconsin taking the fourth
place. Ohio raises the most winter wheat
anlsWoo1, Illinois grows the most corn and
oats and produces the largest number of tat
cattle and hogs. Pennsylvania grows the
most rye, amounting to nearly one-tifth the
total production Of the cereal in the States
California produces the greatest barley crop,
New York gives US the greatest amount Of
hay, hops, potatoes, peas and beans. Sweet
potatoes are most largely produced in North
Carolina. South Carolina is the great rice
producing state; Georgia comes next, and
then Louisiana; these three states yielding
nearly the whole rice crop on the country.
Louisiana also produces nearly all the cane
sugar and inolasscs. Vermont, the most of
the maple sugar, or one-third OF the whole
product, New Norl1 coming next. Indiana
gives the most sorghum, one-eightl'. and
Ohio nearly as much. Kentucky produces
over 100000, 900 pounds OF tobacco, on con-
sielerably over one-third of the whole crop;
also oae-half of all hemp produced III the
Unitelsstates.
Thus. while we cannot fnrnish an entirely
correct idea of the crops OF our own coun-
try, it will be seen from the foregoing state
ment, which of our states produ'e more
largely of tho important crops OF the nation.
1t is to be hoped that before the next census
is taken. Congress will adopt means to do
this work each five years. Thus q great III

HORTICULTURE.
PRESERVING ROOTS AND BULBS.

Dahllas are easily kept through the Win
ter, Ii only proper care be taken. AS soon
as the stalks are killed by white frost. they
should be cut down to within three inches
of the ground, a,d.a mound Of earth raised
over the stubs toscover them. They may
thus ripen, OF unal there is danger of frost
sufficient to freeze the surface of the ground.
Select dry day tor lifting them. Dry them
thoroughly in the air, and pack in dry sand.
and place them in a cool closet where frost
never reaches, or in warm and d.y cellar
Thus they may be safely kept without dan
ger of damping off that is, deoa wing. at the
CROWNS.
Gladiolus bulbs may be left in the ground
until there is danger of pretty hard frosts
Then they should be lifted dried, and pre-
served in dry sand, or each bulb wrapped in
paper and kept dry, as recommended for
dahlias. The bulbs of young tuberosos, de-
signed abr planting next season, are saved
as arc gladiolus, except that they should be
taken up beypre they become chilled in the
ground.
Gamma and other roots of like nature,
should be taken ups dried and kept in dry
sand IN the cellar where they will not freeze
Geraniums should be heeled-in in light
cellar, in dry earth, or nearly dry sand, and
kept dry and entirely free from frost. Ten
der roses are preserved by planting in pits,
or a light CELLAR, where they will not freeze
severely They need not be taken from the
beds until :about the time that hard freezing
occurs. Carnation pinks from seed, intend
ed onblooming next year, must be protect
ed from severe frost by covering. This may
be done by placinga frame about them,
banking up with earth, and covering with
litter to secure from frost. II is not to be
denied, however, that they are difficult to
save out of doors in the West. If potted
and kept cool in the house they do better.
Pansfcs should be protected as advised for
pinks. They will stand considerable freez-

A Washington dispatch to the New York
Tribune says: The investigation now
in progress into the management of In
dian affairs is said to have disclosed a
new method invented by beef contractors
to swindle the Indians. Three years
ago Professor Marsh reported that the
Indians at Red Cloud were being cheated
in the weights of their meat the con-
tractors and inspectors simply guessing
at the weights of cattle by looking at
them instead of driving them upon the
scales. Since the investigation which
followed Professor Marsh's accusations,
system of weighing has been adopted
at all Indian agencies, and it is said to be
fair enough, but for the fact that the IN
spectors at one or two points have al
lowed themselves to be hoodwinked by
the contractor. A large corral, it is re-
ported, was surrounded by high board
fences. In the centre of one side Of this,
the scales were placed, the beam extend
ing outside, where the inspector stood
and made record OF the weights. A
little box was built upon the scales large
enough to hold twelve steers. 1t has
been discovered, SO it is reported, that
the contractors, by driving the same cat
tie twice on the scales, have secured
certificates for the delivery of much
larger amount of beef than was actually
furnished. 1t is reported to have been
discovered that the excess of beef paid
for over that actually delivered has been
millions of pounds.

The Programme Changed.

A curious piece of gossip, which is
well authenticated, comes here from
Newport in regard to q recent marriage
in high life at that aristocratic resort.
The facts are, according to those i'll a
position to know, that the groom who
was to have served, when the wedding
day was fixed and the bridesmaids in
vited to officiate, was almost at the last
moment replaced by another gentleman,
the bride having made up her mind just
before it was too late that she loved the
naval officer, whom she met in Europe
while on a tour around the world about
two years before, better than the WASH
ington gentleman, whom she met in Cal
fornia while nearing the conclusion of
the same journey. The latter was ON
his way to Newport to terminate in mar
riage an engagement which had lasted
year or more, and every preparation was
rapidly progressing for the wedding,
when suddenly the naval officer APP
peared and accidentally renewed the ac-
quaintance with the bride-elect. She
reconsidered her pledges to the other
and accepted the naval gentleman's
declaration of love, avowing that her
heart had only then betrayed its true
inclinations. The wedding took place
on the day originally fixed and exactly
as at first arranged in all respects save a
substitute for the groom first selected
took the leading masculine role on the
occasion. The rejected bridegroom re-
ceived telegram en- route of the change
in the cast, and returned to California
without the lady he had hoped to place
at the head of the establishment he had
made ready for his bride. 1t is soothing,
while CHANGING at his side of "the ro-
nance in real life" to remember Shake
speare's consolatory words Men have
died and worms have eaten them. but
not for love. "-NetO York Graphic.
