4 DANGER FOR JRAHPS.

monia cats stimulated by the emotions of spring to
raise their voices IN back-yards have their

most abundant spring crop that of the wayfarng

flower from the genial influences of March sun,
and of being ms suddenly cut down and cast into
almost any convenient receptacle II Is melan-

warm weather followed by the renewed severity of
inWgorated winter upon the buds and shoots that
Will form the crops are understood and frequently
commented upOn the possibility of the tramp's
emerging too suddenly from his winter miro and,
like the early shooting crOCus losing his delcacy
and bloom from the Bullets of the north wind, is
never remotely alluded to- But If this sad contln-

of its most distinctive and peculiar American crop
And that no voice OF warning has been raised must
arise from the fact that neither botani4t nor
naturalist has made a scientific study of the tramp
OF all the beet family this is the only left unn
vestgated. And the interesting position occupied
by the creature. midway between tho vegetable
aud the animal world should render his migratons
and hibernatons his slow uprisings and frequent
