Many newspaper editors i'll writing
on the probability Of a religious war in
the, East assert that such war would
be fatal to the British possessions III
India. They seem to know little about
it, Tor in population of over 200,-
100000, in India there are only 25,-
100000 Mohammedans, 10000, 900
areHindoos, who hate Mohammedans
worse than the latter do the Christians,
and the rest of the population is made
up of several different religious sects.
There are no Mohammedan soldiers
in the British service, which can be
recruited to any extent with Others
opposed to them. In this lies the
safety of the British tenure in India.
Great Britain has never kept large
standing army, she has money enough
in time OF war to purchase the best
soldiers of all nations and thus save
the blood of her own citizens.
Should she get into war with any
foreign nations by opening recruiting
stations at Nassau and in Canada she
could in a short time draw thousands
of trained soldiers from the United
States, those who fought in the late
war, and who are, many OF them,
spelling for fight. Great Britain
also has recruiting stations, Heligo-
land on the coast of Germany, GibIal-
tar III Spain, Malta in the Mediter-
ranean and numbers OF others, where
in time OF war people flock to enlist.
She therefore has not necessarily TO 90

Vandalism,

One OF the most picturesque and
agreeable features OF the scenery OF
the upper St. Johns river, is the pro-
mlscuous natural groups of the Cab
bace Palmetto Palms, which fringe
the banks with canopy Of noble and
graceful tan.shaped tronds or leaves,
borne alott high from symmetrical
trunk. Ever grateful and pleasing to
the eye, the tree further fultils an
important mission in consolidating
and maintaining the banks OF the
river from the inroads of floods by
means of it's tenacious and anatomiz>
ing series OF roots, SO that in ordinary
times its presence denotes land sui>
fciently high aud dry and very Of
ten it is the means OF preventing the
water reaching places further inland.
We have noticed with much re-
aret and have previously alluded to
4be indiscriminate destruction ofnum>
hers of these fine trees, the parties
causing it being actuated by paltry
consideration of one dime each tree,
the purpose being brush making, the
mart used being the undeveloped bud
at the extremity of the trees growth.
The trunk and leaves are left to Its
ter The ground, and the stump to
mark the acts of these vandals and
trespassers on public property The

moved, like the pine, never spring

shoots of a redish color. When
about two inches high, they begin to
sucker and grow in large cfumps.
Guinea grass roots should be
planted in shallow burrows about
three feet apart, and one and a halt
feet in rows if planted too deep they
will not sucker SO quickly. The
plants should not be more than SIX
inches long, and laid in Sla'ating po-
sition. Always plant them when the
ground is wet-from February to
July, The grass should be cut just
before going to seed, or when the
stems are not too coarse. Para
grass seed does not germinate, 1T has
to be planted from cuttings in the
same manner as Guinea grass roots,
only the rows can be made six feet
apart, and the cuttings placed three
or four feet apart in rows. 1t quickly
covers the ground and gives an im>
mense amount of hay to the acre.
Mr.. E. H. Hart, of Federal Point,
Putnam county, has made a lawn
grass of it by planting thick and clip
ping close. In the tropics, both
these grasses are considered of great
value. Guinea grass is fed in a green
state to the horses kept in stables, all
The year round. 1t is planted all
around the large cities, cut and
carried in for sale by car loads. The
grass is tied up in bundles OF twenty
eight pounds each, and sold at the
rate of five bundles for twenty-five
cents. Why do not people living
near the cities, do it here }? The llv
cry stablemen would be glad to gel
green grass for their horses during
She summer instead OF having to senc
them out to grass with the risk o
getting them sanded. Northern hay
| is now so high in price that to feed

j. FL. Foster:
DEAR SIR: We do not bud
but graft the mulberry, which sue.
ceeds well here, and now is the time
for this locality; with you it should
be done just as your spring opens.
The graft and stocks seedlings OF
the white mulberry-should be taken
up and kept in cool place until the
trees in the open ground begin to
grow, then graft your trees and plant
them in nursery row for year or
two, when they can be planted where
they are to remain for bearing. We
graft them in common mode OF splice
grating. l send you by mail a spe-
cimen graft. The bass string rots
off when the tree has grown little.
| also put in few cuttings of the
Downing Mulberry for trial, be
cause think they will grow readily
in your locality by cuttings. x
We use the common white Italian
Mulberry for stocks, which is also
the kind used for silk culture, and is
also the best for poultry and hogs.
l enclose you a small package OF
seeds. & The Downing Mulber.
ry is black, and of rich acid flavor;
most mulberries are white, sweet,
and wanting in flavor. *
Very respectfully,
CHAs. DOWNING.

he did not receive the letter, hence
he understood the specimen graft as
an intimation thai the scions were to

way to obtain roots but by diggin :

procured limited supply, and cuts

On account Of our( proximity TO
Chicago and the Pullrban Car Comr
pany's works, land has come to be
valued at from $1,000 to $1,000 per
acre, and the taxes are becoming
most too high to raise truck upon it.
Consequently, many dt' them al sell
ing out and moving away. / am
we'll acquainted with the most influ.
entail men among them, some of
whom are immigration agents for
steamship lines.
l am thoroughly convinced if a
suitable place is found and proper
effort made, large emigration can
be directed your way, instead of 10
the cold northwest as now. Thous.
ands of them are coming over, and
nearly all with few hundred dollars
to invest.
They are the very best laborers on
the farm and garden. One is worVh
ten negroes. They nearly all be-
come independent by their industrl-
Gus and saving habits. Their chill
dren become better Americans than
any other foreign race.

duced by the proper effort.

much more freely than they would

When a cutting is fixed in the soil,
whether it be i'll pot or in the open
ground, the progress OF roofing is
concealed, and can only be conject-
ured by the appearance OF the part
that remains above the surface. To
an experienced eye the successful
completion is obvious enough, and
steps can be taken accordingly for
subsequent removal, but to beginners
this is not SO apparent; the rule to
go by is to observe the accession OF
growth and protruding shoots when
roots have formed.
A cutting when placed in a wide
mouthed bottle or phial of water,
may fail it may also decay, but If 1t
is to succeed eventually, two circum'
stances will become obvious; first il
will not flag or droop, and second, the
water however long the cutting re
main in it, will show little, if auy ten
dency to become f@tid or offensive
1t has long been an observed TAG
that the oIeander will emit roots
if young green shoot be placed IL

happens that a lively shoot with Til
flower buds becoming visible at it

weeks, and being transferred to
