the Greek asked to accompany the officers to

The example is one that might well be

torneys should be compelled To come To

quite enough To impose on the pro

When those expenses are doubled by

THE LAST sPIRITUALIsTIC SEN

The last and decidedly the most in

An AsparaRus Red.

He who lives in the country and has no
asparagus bed has at least one heavy sin of
omission on his conscience for which he
never can give an adequate excuse. If the
man who does ''not provide for his own
house is worse than an infdel," he that will
not "bothtr' with an asparagus bed IS any
thing but orthodox, and yet cannot call HIM
self nationalist. Some are under the delu-
sion that an asparagus bed is an abstruse
garden problem and an expensive luxury.
Far from it. The plants of Conover's Colos-
sal 1.-THE best VARIETY can be obtaind of any
seedman at slight cost. have one large
bed that yields almost daily supply from
the middle of April till late in June, and 1
shall make another bed next spring in this
simple way: As early in April as the ground
is dry enough-the sooner the better-I shall
choose some warm, early, but deep soil, Gu
rich it well, and then on one side OF the plot
open furrow or trench eight or ten inches
deep, Down this furrow l shall scatter a
heavy coat OF rotted compost, and then run
plough or pointed hoe through it again.
By this process the earth and compost are
mingled, and the furrow rendered about six
inches deep. Along the lowest size, one
foot apart, 1 will place one-year-old plants,
spreading out the roots, and taking care to
keep the crown or top Of the plant five inches
below the surface when level; then half fill
the furrow over the plants, and when the
young shoots are well up, fill the iurrow
even. shall make the burrows two feet
apart, and after planting as much space as 1
wish, the bed is made for the next fifty years.
In my fathers garden there was good bed
over fifty years old. The young shoots
should not be cut for the first two years, and
only sparingy the third year, on the same
principle that we do not put young colts at
work. The asparagus is a marine, plant,
and dustings of salt sufficient to kill the
weeds will promote its growth.-E. p. Roe,
