PFOpagating Roses.

Parks Floral Magazine.
Take a young branch cut a slit just be-
low leaf-bud, put the branch through the
hole IN acommon fower-pot until the slit in
the bark is inside the pot, then fill the pot
with sandy soil, set it on the ground, bend
ing the branch and pinning it down without
breaking; keep the pot we'll watered and the
branch will root in a few weeks; then cut
outside the pot without disturbing the roots.
The large white rose and many Others that
do not root easily from slip can be propa-
gated in this way, can also most shrubs
and woody plants. OF course it will be m
derstood that the branch should be pushed
upward until several inches are above the
rim OF the pot, and the earth pressed tightly
around it, the same as though potting an or
binary plant The point to be observed is to
leave the branch unseyered, so that it may
draw strength from the parent root until its
own roots are started. Leave it undisturbed
in the pot in the cellar until the next spring,
then set where it is TO remain.

Spanish Revolutionary Methods.

Boston Advertisar
The Spanish rebel makes his public declar-
alton in the mldest possible manner, and
then smokes a cigarette When he finds
many supporters, they imagine that they
are greatly excited; but they do not forget
to play cards or dominoes, and they abstain
scrupulously from injuring property and de-
stroyng human lives or limbs. They remain
being pushed by events to making events
themselves Accordingly, Spain may have
a considerable rebellion without bloodshed
and without much destruction of property.
