How to Raise Strawberries.

One very important principle is often
overlooked by the cultivator. 1t is that
the production of the seed or fruit is a
very exhaust;ng process. When a man
buys a tree from the nursery and it
bears a half dozen samples of fruit
the first year, it stops its growth just
about one year. Hence, until tree
gets q good growth it should not be al
lowed to bear. Trees that are growing
rapidly do not bear, and if a tree is
bearing at all, it is to the detriment of
the growth.
A strawberry plant usually bears
crop or fruit and also produces new
vines. Now, if the blossoms of those
plants from which we want to raise new
plants are cut off in season, the whole
strength goes into the new plants, and
one thousand runners grown from plants
that are not allowed to fruit are worth
more than five thousand grown from
plants that bore fruit at the same time.
Old plants are worth nothing-new
plants from an old bed are worth moth
ing. The only plants worth using are
young plants grown from such as are
not allowed to fruit. The true way to
raise strawberries is to get young plants
of this description and not allow them
to fruit the first year. They viii throw
out plenty of strong, vigorous runners,
and the next season before bearing take
a part of these to make new bed. A
new bed should be made every year.
When we plantin the spring we should
get no fruit the same year. The next
year we get the largest crop we ever get.
The vines can stand and bear partial
crop the next season, or be plOwed I'M
der as soon as the crop is gathered.
7 l,,.r4 fT11l and
only one. 1t is less labor to make a new
bed than to clean up an old one. 1t is
very little labor to plant an acre of
Strawberries if properly done, and no
other crop pays so well. The only diff
Guilty is to get the right kind of plants.
but every man can raise the plants him
self in this way. Strawberries will do
well on any land that will raise good
corn.-CO7. Prairie Farmer.

Submarine Enterprise in Japan.

The Japan Weekly Mail notes that the
old method of searching for that valua-
BILE mollusc known as 'sBeche de mer,"
which was simply that of employing
naked divers, as in the pearl fisheries of
Ceylon, has almost entirely disappeared
since the Japanese fishermen have been
made acquainted with the European
system of diving. Diving dresses, we
learn, are now largely employed along
the shores, and the result is SO success
full that the Government has found it
necessary to issue circular ordering
the authorities to caution the fishermen
against wasteful courses threatening the
complete exhaustion of this staple of the
country. Officials along the coast are
also directed to advise the Government
as to the best means of protecting these
creatures from indiscriminate destruc-
ton. In their leisure hours the Japan
csc possessors of diving dresses appear
to turn their attention to the search for
submerged treasures. One man is re-
ported to have thus recovered from the
depths of the Sumidagawa, in the course
of two days only, old coin to the value
of $500.

Odd Bits Of Ignorance.

In spite of the advance of education,
everyone who has observed his fellow
creatures must be aware that even the
educated classes are grotesquely igno-
rant. We have known a clergyman,
and University man to boot, and a
grave fellow, too, and a pious, who,
when he visited the Riviera, expressed
peculiar interest in the prospect of visit
ing Nice. s'Here," said he, twas held
the famous Council of Nice, and in the
presence of that blue sea, within the
shade of those gray groves of olives, was
composed one of the creeds of the
Church" This was doubtless a SEN
tence from some future sermon; but we
regret to say that, in a thoughtless mo-
ment, and obeying pedantic impulse,
we dispelled the illusion and demon
strated that the Council of Nice was not
held in the fascinating neighborhood of
Monte Carlo.
1t is not every one who has heard of
Mr.. Darwin. At his recent funeral
distinguished naturalist, fond of CONVEX
SETON, began to chat with high official
of the police force who was helping peo-
pie TO move on in an orderly manner.
''Ah, SIR said the Inspector, sewe have
lost a great man--Darwin, the Laureate
poeti''
The public is peculiarly ignorant of
Bible history. We doubt if a fair per-
centage of the people you meet in the
course of an hours walk could get as
near the order of the names of the books
in The Old Testament as the little school
girl in Somerset. This West Country
blossom of the School Board system was
requested to name the earlier writings
of the Sacred Text, which she did thus,
and very f1uently: ''Devonshire, Exeter,
Liticus, Numbers, Astronomy, Jupiter,
Jumbo, Ruth" Here the higher criti-
cism dimly detects vague local render
ing of 'sGenesis, Exodus, LevitieHs,
Numbers, Deuteronomy, Joshua, j Judges,
Ruth. Taking of Ruth reminds US of
the ignorant lady at the picture gallery.
"Ruth and Boaz, = she read in the cata-
logue; ''who was RuthP'' Whereupon
her companion favored her with
sketch of the plot of Mrs. GaskelI's
Ruth, ending with the confession, ''but
l don't remember who Boaz Was.'' An
American lady was heard to ask in the
Pitt Galleries: "Who is that byP'' The
answer was stRayphael.' SIS he the
same as Rayphael SanzioP'' "No; don't
you know, there are three of them, Ray
phael, Sanzio, and Urbino. - London
