Varieties OfTea Roses,

The following list includes some of the
universal fayortes: Marechal Neil will
stand at the head of the list of tea roses,
although partaking OF the character of a
Noisette. 1t is probably the finest yellow
rose in existence. After this we may name
Marie Van Houtte, white variety, slightly
tinged with yellow; Sqfrano, a we'll. known
old sort; Bon Silene, another old variety {;
Isabella Sprunt, sulphur yellow rose,
originated from, and much resembling
Sairano; Catharine Mermet, large, bright
flesh color; Deooniensis, light cream color;
Belle Lyonnaise, large, yellow, a Seeding
from Gloirc de Dion Madame Camille
delicate rose color, large and full ; Gloire
de DIOn, very large, globular vigorous,
harder than most tea roses, and one of the
finest of all. These make ten excellent
sorts; if you wish ten more, add General
DesbOis, Marie Ducher, Souvenir Dun Am,,
7riomphe de luxembourg, 1iuJens, Madame
Maryottin, Marie Sisley, SomJreua, Nina
and Canary Every cultivator will vary
the list
The tea roses are more tender than most
other sorts, and it is often difficult to win
ter them in open ground. You may first
cover them with a smooth layer of ever
green branches to allow space and air, and
then with several inches of forest leaves,
held down again by evergreen branches. =
They are more successfully kept in pits,
properly covcred.-C Country Gentleman

with it gently crowd the headquarters of,
the cow against the partition on the left
side. The pole strikes the flank Just at the
top of the udder and then passes on behind
her and is fastened firmly to the side of the
barn back of the next COW on the left
She must be tied short or fastened by "A
stanchion. Now the mixer is master, and
no injury to the COW. She can't possibly
hit HIM, and can only raise her foot for
ward. II she is accustomed to gentleness,
n soothing word the first time she raises
her foot will quiet her, and she will soon
forget kicking. If she needs it, one firm
word of command may do. If she ia wild,
take a stick, pretty stiff, and for one kick
give one blow and one decided word; two
blows and two words will spoil ALL While
she stands quiet whistle or call her name
soothngly, and you will find her manners
aud disposition entirely changed, by lit
tie perseverance, unless she is very wicked.
After while, the pole may be omitted, and
she will not notice it lift is done with care.
The one great advantage of this method is
that the mixer feels perfectly at ease, and
is self confident, and this l consider the
great requisite in the management of any
animal. The pole does not interfere with
milking.
