Geraniums and HeliOtrOpcS.

A French gardner thus describes
his method for getting geraniums to
to flower during the winte. Slips
arc taken at the beginning Of August
and planted out either in pots or in
cold frame. Later OH they are
twice repottel and constantly
pinched. In the first half of Octo-
her they are taken into the hothouse,
placed as near the light as possible
and allowed to grow without further
check. Under this treatment they
are found to flower freely all through
the winter.
Tim hcliotrope should have fire.
qucnt repotting and be allowed to
grow large specimens may be seen
in parlors, in large tubs on wheels,
which have reached tn" heigth Of eight
feet. Such plants are in themselves
bouquets of beauty, being always
covered with flowers, Train the
main stems of the plant to Il trellls,
and let the branches droop aturally
The plant bears the knife well and
breaks freely. hence it can be trained
into any shape.

Shall | Pasture or Soil !

If one raises soiling crops, lie is
much more Independent of the sea-
sons, and can feel sure Of keeping
his stock we'll all the time, whether
there comes drought or not. Par
tial soiling will enable one to increase
his stock, if, in his Judgment, the
condition of the markets appear fa-
vorablc to such increase. Soiling
helps to make farm grow rich, while
pas'uring tend to impoyerishment.
We would overstock the pasture in
the spring. and secure all the feed
that should be spared. and then,
when the dry weather Of midsummer
comes on, as it does nearly every
year, we would take the cattle to tie
stables and feed them there with
green crops, till the pastures are fit
to turn into again. 1t is a poor plan
to let cattle run in a pasture so poor
and short that they will be forced to
work all day for living. For soil.
ing. the most valuable crop to culti-
vate is sweet corn, grown especially
for feeding through July, August
and September. We have raised the
largest varieties, but arc no: certain
bat medium sized corn would be
quite as satisfactory. Oats. spring
rye and barley, may be sown for early
feeding, before corn becomes suffi"
ciently grown. and they nay each be
sown in the summer for late feeding,
after the frost has killed the corn.
We have >own nearly two bushels
Of corn per acre. but some successful
farmers believe that half the quan"
tity would produce crap of equal
value. If sown too thickiy, the lower
part of the stalks arc bare of leaves,
and the whole is quite apt to blow
down by heavy winds.
Winter rye is one of the most use
ful soiling crops. as it comes 81 early
in the spring and grows between the
seasons for other crops. thus requir@
ing no changes for land or time, but
YOU cannot have that this year.

How TO Test Seed.

Mr.. Bowick, the Enelish author
urges that where there is the light-
est reason for doubling The germinat,
Ing powers OF seed grain, It should
be tested before sowing much more
generally than is often done. His
directions, though too late for our
fall crops and much in advance of
spring seeding. may well be put on
record for future use. They are as
follows : Draw one hundred grains
promiscuously, lay them in two pieces
Of thick flannel well saturated with
rain water, place it in a warm tenn
pera;ure. always wet. and IN fifty CT
sixty hours you will fud it sproutci.
The general adoption ofsach Il handy
method would give certainty to
what a farmer was growlAa. Thus,
if he found the germinative percent
age low, he must add more seed 10
make up the deficiency.

The Sun Flower AS Protection
Against Malaria.

On this subject VIC have received
from correspondent a communlca-
ton which, containing no facts that
arc not already familiar to the public,
we deem unnecessary to publish.
However, for the benefit of those
persons who may be still culiiva;lng
the unsightly sunfower, under the
impression that it really possesses
some hidden power to ward off mala-
ria, We may state that this notion
was long ago exploded, and now
ranks only with such remedial absur-
dities as the carrying about in the
pockets horsechestnuts and potatoes
as frophylactics Of rheumatism, or
the equally ludicrous one of basklng
in light that streams through ''blue
glass"
Notwithstanding the romance att
tachcd to its origin by mythology. it
is about as coarse, ugly, and useless
a plant as we know. With nothing
about it to please the eye, with no
medicinal qualities whatever to give
it value, the only possible economic
use to which it can be put is that OF
cultivation for the sake of an oil that
its seeds yield. But whatever value
it might have for this purpose is more
than counterbalanccd by the positive
injury it does to the soil, for it is
we'll known as an Unsuitable consumer
of potash, and would rapidly exhaust
any land Of this already too scarce
salt, and hence render it unproduc"
tive. The proper place, then, for
this unpromising exotic is where we
chiefly find 1.-THE gardens of rural
districts, in which it is often planted
to hide objects that have the misfor-
tune to be still more unsightly.
As regards The eucalyptus, which
our correspondent incidentally mem
tions, NE believe it is not generally y
held by scientists that the mere pres
ence of the growing tree in any dis"
trict will prevent the occurrence OF
malaria, but that its value as re-
medal agent depends on the pres
ence in its leaves and bark of 4 resin
and alkaloid in considerable quantity
that have been found to possess all
the febrifuge qualities of cinchona
and its NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Amer

DRIFTING AWAY.

Drifting away from each other,
Silently drifting apart,
Nothing between but the world'scold screen
Nothing to lose but u heart.
Only two lives dividing
More and more. day by day.
Only one soul from another soul
Steadily drifting away.
Only man S heart striving
Bitterly hard with its doom.
Only hand tender and bland
Slipping away in the gloom,
Nothing OF doubt or wrong.
Nothing that either can cure.
Nothing 10 shame, nothing TO blame,
Nothing to do but endure.
The world cannot stand still,
Tides cbb--and women change.
Nothing here that is worth tear,
One love less nothing strange.
Drifting away from each other,
Sileatly drifting away,
No wrong TO each that the world can reach
Nothing lost--but heart.

as we'll as their own benefit. The

needs frequent and .iudioious feeding
