pint of the juice add half pint of
good cream; make it very sweet;
freeze it in the usual way, and when be-
ginning to set, stir in lightly one pint of
whipped cream, and lastly handful of
whole Strawberries sweetened. Put it
into mold and imbed in ice. Or, when
fresh Strawberries cannot be obtained,
there is no more delicious cream than
that made with the French bottled straw
berries. Mix, the juice in the bottle with
the cream, and add the whipped cream
and the whole strawberries, when the

cream, sweetened and favored with va

Hons and How to Grow Them.

The average price of hops is from 15
to 25 cents pound. They have been as
low as six cents, and as high as $1.G5,
but both these cases were exceptional.
At rs cents the crop is considered a
profitable one. About the only consul
mers are beer brewers. The New Eng
land Farmer says soil suited to Indian
corn is adapted to hops. A deep, warm
mellow loan is what the crop delights
in, and if the field is partially protected
from winds by hills or trees, all the bet
ter, as exposure to severe winds is fatal
to success. The subsoil must not be
over wet. A hard pan, holding water
late in the spring is very detrimental.
Hop roots live in the soil many years if
the soil is suite to their growth, the
tops only being killed in the fall Prepare
the land as for corn only make it deeper
and richer. The hop has the male and
female blossoms on separate vines, and
setting with an understanding of this
fact. Eight male plants, distributed
equally through the field, will be suffici-
ent if they are trained on long poles.
The plant may be grown from seeds, but
the better way is to propagate by root
cuttings from well-known desirable va
rieties. A bushel or two of roots, cut
into-lengths of five or eight inches with
two or three good buds to each cutting,
will be enough for setting an acre. The
hills are usually made eight feet apart
each way, care being taken to mark the
rows out IL exact squares to facilitate
after cultivation. Four cuttings are
enough to each hill, placing. them in a
square, in the middle ofwhich the poles
are afterwards to be set, though some
| planners set the poles the first year, and
sometimes harvest small crop the same
season. The land should be as we'll
field; indeed, it is allowable to plant
corn in the intermediate spaces the first
year. as it will not materially injure the
growth of the vines. Vines that stray
from the poles will need tying till they
get good hold. Coarse, unfermen-
ted manure is unfit for putting in the
hills when the roots are planted, but
such manure thrown upon the hills in
the fall to lie through the winter, will
both enrich the soil and protect the
plants from too severe freezing. The
manure must be raked off in the spring
and the ground kept cultivated and free
from weeds as dnring the first year,
through the cultivator must not be run
deeply enough to cut and injure the
roots. The time to harvest will be indi-
Gated by the condition of the seed and
the color ofthe burr. If picking is be-
gun too early the vines will bleed like
grape vines cut in spring, and more or
| less to their injury,

HOnOred BY q CITY.

The city of New York presented an
extraordinary spectacle during the four
days that elapsed between the death
and the burial Of Peter Cooper.
He held no office and bore no title. It
was not usual even TO prefix the "Mr."
to his name when printed, buf no citi-
zen was so generally known and 80 deep
ly venerated. During the last two or
three years Of his life, although he re-
tanned his faculties almost unimpaired,
his hair had assumed the color and tex
ture of the finest white silk, SO that he
looked his ninety years without show
ing them in his walk or conversation.
Every one knew him,-men, boys,
children, drivers and all the host of
city wayfarers, thousands of whom had
been benefited by the noble institution
he had founded and personally watched

him the salutaton OF 4 smile. The rough

feet simplicity of character. No one
ever saw him unduly elated by applause,
or in the least altered by success. His
wealth could not initiate him, because
he held it but in trust for the good of
others. He was just the same plain,
kind, friendly Peter Cooper as he was
when he had his grocery store on the
site of his institute. and invited his
friends to a banquet of crackers and
cheese on the top of -four barrel.
And at length on that Tuesday morn
ing, after the newspapers had gone to
press, he breathed his last. The first
news Of the event WAS given to the in.

Tliackerny's domestic life, otherwise q
perfectly happy one probably, was over
clouded by one OF the worst lnisfortunes
that can befall q man, in the insanity Of
his wife. Perhaps his writings, besides
yielding him fame and fortune, served
as the happiest of distractions from a
grief whose intensity was increased
rather than diminished by time.
1t is we'll known that toward the latter
part Of his married life Dickens rela-
tons witt! his wife were fur from happy.
Predjudiced admirers of the great novel

will not be likely to agree as to the rights
and wrongs of the subject. Perhaps it is
too soon to pass an unbiased Judgment,
at least with the testimony so far offered.

5The FloWer,. Beds.

II Now is the time toSplant in the small
garden plot geraniums of every variety,
verbenas, sweet alyssnms, rose gerani-
ums, pelargonians Of Lady Washingtons.
and roses in every variety.
In gardens with southern exposure it
is safe to plant all kinds of annuals-ge-
raniums of every variety, roses of all
kinds, without exception, begonias of
the Towering order, verbenas, lantanas,
Madagascar periwinkles, which blossom
in two colors, white and pnrplish pink,
and in general, all plants which can bear
considerable heat.
AS warmer days grow frequent seed
sowing will be attended with Sgreat re-
suits. The best ANIMALS for selection are
the portulacca, mignonette, the China
aster, sweet alyssum, sweet pea, four
o'clock, the double balsam Cor as some
people call it, lady slipper, candy tuft,
double Jenna Cor youth and old age) and
phlox of various kinds, notably phlox
drummondi.
Very often plants purchased in pots
are unsatisfactory and soon fade away;
so, too, the gardeners finds himself face
10 face with similar experience in the
garden plot. Often this arises from the
prevalence of worms, and it is well to
know that lime water will often ex-
terminate such destructive parasites.
Ordinary lime should he placed in a pail
of water and allowed to settle, and if the
water is freely passed over the mould
,enanted by worms, it will destroy them
effectually.
| Creeping animals and climbing plants
Of every kind are always fascinating;
whether for the open garden, for
porches or for window gardening. The
best for present planting are the morn.
ing-glory (Which, although it will shut
up, IS always decorative by reason of its
extensive foliage!. the hyacinth bean,
scarlet runners of various kinds, nastur-
tiums (not the dwarf, Madeira vines
and hop vines, all of which, under fa-
vorable conditions, sufficient sunshine
and careful Watering, will appear above
ground within two weeks and grow pro-
lifically, They are all excellent for
porches walls and balconies, ifsufficiently

One Way to Make Strawberry
Bed

For the private garden I have found
the following plan about as desirable for
garden culture of the strawberry as any
I have ever tried
With turning pillow throw up bed
five feet wide (not widcr), pulverize thor
oughly and rake off smoothly. Lay off
rows with the point of a hoe across the
bed (not lengthwise), two feet apart and
set the plants one foot apart in the row.
When the plants throw out runners,
train them across the bed so as to form
matted row of plants one loot wide,
thus leaving one foot space between the
rows for cultivation. After the
first year the runners may be cut
off. Common sense and good judg-
ment must be consulted in training the
runners SO that the pants in the matted
rows are not allowed to set too thickly.
From three to five inches is thick
enough. If the bed is not wider than
f3e feet, it can be cultivated to the CEN
ter from either side, and the berries
can be picked to tbs center from either
side without mutilating the plants.
Oak boards an inch thick and six
inches wide Ordinary fencing plank
may be placed around the edges of the
beds and secured i'll position by slabs or
stakes. This prevents the soil from
washing from the bed during heavy
rains, and also assists in retaining the
moisture. In late. Fall or early Winter
the bed should be mulched with wheat,
oat or rye straw, pine leaves, decayed
tan-bark or wood-pile chips. This
mulch should be allowed to remain on
the bed until the following Spring, when
it may be removed or worked into the
soil.-Rural New Yorker.
