The comet. [volume] (Jackson, Miss.) 1877-1882, 1880-06-26

A pretty parlor ornament may be
had by growing English or other ivy
in vases in moss and water. The
vases should be long, opaque glass
ones, wide at the top, so that the
plants, after being properly rooted, can
be taken out, and the vases cleaned
when necessary. If English ivy is
used, the slips should, if possible,
already be provided with aerial roots.
Place three or four slips in each vase,
each piece being rolled up separately
in sphagnum moss. Before putting
them into the vase, bind the clumps
together, the ball of moss being so
large that it will not reach within
five or six inches of the bottom. The
roots will extend down into the water,
and the plants will thrive nicely with
an occasional change of water.

The wilson's Abbey strawberry.

In 1858, there resided near Brook
Ign, N. Y, Scotchman, named
Wilson-a plain, practical, unassum-
ing man-who was engaged in the
nursery business. In the year named
he raised a new variety of strawberry
on his premises-a Seeding. 1t fruited
and gave evidence of being a valuable
addition to the limited list of varieties
then known. Contrary to the usual
course in such cases, Mr.. Wilson eX-
hibited his unselfishness by dividing
them with his neighbors, and in a few
years afterwards they were making
thousands of dollars from the stock he
gave them, while he had less to plant
than any of them. Each year establish
ed the superior claims of the new vari-
ETY. and the demand was extraordinary
from every section of the country.
The new acquisition was named
Wilson's Albany, and it became at
once, and is now, the great berry for
commercial purposes. Mr.. Wilson,
some years later, sank into his grave
and was forgotten, but he left such a
legacy to the horticultural world that
he should go down to posterity in
marble bronze. This variety has,
through its eXcelleneies for CONNER
cial purposes, become more important
than all Others put together. 1t has
no equal and its place could not be
supplied. 1t has in consequence
added almost millions to the wealth
of the country. In great fruit pro-
ducing sections like southern IlloinOis
and elsewhere, where long experience
enables growers to determine what is
best, you find comparatively nothing
but the Wilson. The fruit growers of
the United States owe Mr.. Wilson
more than has ever been fittingly
acknowledged.

Mr. Halncs made Il point of order and
arguodthat the precise words for which
two members are held to answer must
be printed and recorded.
MIR. Bowman said the point was fruit
less, as the otfense was actions and not

The speaker overrnled the point.
Mr. Browns substitute, referring it to
select committee, was agreed to, 80 to

An opportunity was given Messrs.
Sparks and Weaver, on motion of Mr..
Conger, to make any statement they de-
sired.
Mr. Weaver stated his deep regret at
the occurrence of yesterday. and admit
ted that his language was wholly I'M
Justlfiable, and for it he made his apol-
ogy humbly to the house.
Mr.. Sparks said he used language yes
terday that contlicted with the rules of
the house, and he felt that he owed an
apology.
Mr. Singleton, of Illinois, then moved
to table the whole subject.
Mr.. Conger demanded the yeas and
nays, saying the country would be better
satisfied to have the matter investigated
than dropped entirely.
The yeas and nays resulted, yeas 104,

So the subject was laid on the table.
At2:35 the house adjourned till the 5th
