burdens, encourage productive in
tercsts at home, and afford
compensation to labor, but not

demanded radical revision Of the ex-
isting tariff, which overloads the coun-
try with unequal burdens and has
created and fostered numerous monop-
olies. These burdens OF the people
cannot be capitalized and these monop-
olics cannot be destroyed without a
considerable reduction of the tariff,
which Republicans so persistently de-
fend and are so unalterably resolved
to maintain. Time will develop these

Floral Hints.

The lily of the valley is quite hardy in all
parts of the country, but likes cool rather
than warm exposure, and if possible it
should have a slight shade. Naturally it
grows among shrubs and low trees, from
which it receives some shade and shelter
and in planting it we should, if possible
give 1t location initiating its natural site.
In preparing bed for it, if the material
were at hand, we should mix some leaf
mould with the soil. but it usually succeeds
on most soils without special preparation.
The Chinese wistaria is woody plant
with perennial stem, like the Virginia
creeper, that increases in size with age,
1t is hardy i'll the Northern States and the
southern portion of Ontario, receiving in
jury by the cold at the ends of its shoots
only in The most severe winters.
Perfectly double flowers cannot produce
seed, since all the productive organs are
converted into petals. Semi-double or part
Tally double flowers may prduce seed, and
these flowers possibly may be self-fertil-
lied or may be fertlized by other part
tally double or by single ones, and in either
case may form seed, a considerable portion
of which will produce flowers more or less
double. Or single flowers fretilized by
semi-double ones will produce seeds capa-
bic OF similar results. Unusually large and
vigorous plants are not particularly favor
able for the production Of seeds, but rather.
particularly unfavorable; plants of medium
vigor, neither stunted nor forced into rank
growth are best. The raising of seeds that
will produce double flowers is an art that
requires much experience to enable one to
practice it successfully, and nearly every
Bind of flower requires a peculiar and
special treatment.
Auratum lily does well under pot culture.
Use ten-inch pot; place in the bottom an
inch or more of drainage, and then fill in
about three inches of compost of equal
parts leaf-mould decayed sods and finely
pulverized, old, leached COW manure. over
this layer of sand about an inch thick.
and rest the bulb on it; then fill the compost
all around and within half an inch of the
top. Give light watering, and set the pot
away in the cellar to remain a number of
weeks. possibly two or three months, or un-
til a shoot appears, then it can be taken up
where it can have more heat and the full
light of the sun. While in the cellar do
not allew the soil to become dry, but be
careful to keep only gently moist. When
taken to the light increase the quantity of
water with the growth as demanded

HOW to optain Rggs in winter


There is no animal kept on the farm that
feels neglect so quick as laying hen.
Sometimes neglect of a few days will stop
hen from laying several weeks. In order
to obtain plentiful supply of eggs in win
ter, we must have young hens. Pullets
hatched in April or May prove the most sat
isfactory. The hens must be well cared
for; have a comfortable warm house, kept
clean aud well arranged. Provide plenti-
full supply of fresh moderately warm water
every day. If the water is not warm when
placed in the pen it win freeze so quickly
that only the stronger fowls will satisfy
their thirst while the weaker ones must 90
without. Give your poultry all the water
they want and you will be surprised at the
quantity they will drink. Variety and
plenty of food are absolutely necessary.
Deed regularly what the hens will eat with
Fut wasting Wheat or screenings is the
best for the principal feed; corn, oats and
buckwheat come in as variety. Corn
meal, middlings, or something of that sort
mixed stiff and warm, should be fed first
in the morning, but give no soft food after
midday. Whole grain should be the feed
after the mornings mess. Dry grain is
best to fill the hens, crops with at night.
Fresh meat in some form should be fed
daily, lard or tallow (chandler's) scraps are
good. Scraps broken up, soaked over night
and mixed with meal and bran, make a
good occasional feed mornings. Carrots,
turnips, boiled potatoes and cabbage are
all good. Oyster and clam shells, broken
fine, lime or lime mortar, fine gravel, coal
and ashes should be supplied to hens when
confined. They need light sprinkling of
red pepper in their food once week or
ofteuer in quite cold weather. Chopped hay
should be supplied to them occasionally.
Have box of sand or ashes where they
can use il at their pleasure. Any bones,
burned or broken fine, or warm scraps from
the table, are always acceptable 10 the hens.

cause depends of course on their numbers.
Twenty-Five hens would be of less harm than

seems to be about the right number for the
farmers to keep. Such number would be
