A Tidy institution Under Able Man
aGement.
Yesterday reporter of this paper Wis
tied the city and county hospital, pre-
sided over by Mrs. Wright, an estiu~
able lady who believes in keeping
everything around her looking as neat
as a pin and as cosy as possible. The
reporter was shown through the sry-
eral wards, the culinary department,
and in fact the entire surroundings.
On every hand the same neat appear
ance and comfortable arrangements
were to be seen. In the rooms
every thing was as white
and as clean as il is possible
to keep them, and they were In far
much cleaner than the floors of a
great many houses presided over by
tastidious people. Everything about
the house is conveniently arranged for
the wants OF the patients.
This institution is owned joiztly 10y
the city and the county. Since last
October there have been i56 patients
in the hospital, and most of them
have been sent from the doors
cured under the skillful treatment
of DIR. Burt, the attending
physician.
From DIR, Burt's report for August

superstition in Italy nowadays. The
peasants of Corano declared they saw
the Madonna appear from a bush
growing in place where, in the last
century, a statute OF her had been de-
stroyed. The place was soon crowded
with pilgrims, several of whom, ow-

disorder that they had to be placed

Orchard and Garden.
Firm the seed bed.

Firm the seed bed.
Plant some grape vines.
Use last years parsnip seed.
Cover peas two inches deep.
Grape cuttings may be set out.
Raspberry tips are often set too deep.
Deep culture in the orchard is not good
In planting have only moist ground
next to the roots.
A rich soil will grow tree larger in
one year than Il poor one will in three.
For early tomatoes. cucumbers or mel
ons, start the seeds in pots of soil, or on
inverted sods in the hot bed.
Mulching fruit trees with sand or coal
ashes to promote GOODNESS and moisture
about the roots, tends to cause produc-
tons and fine fluaity of the fruit. This
treatment would generally be found better
than cultivating the surface.
Farmers Plant Some Shrubs.-The on
ly way we can account for the prevailing
absence of the many beautiful and perfect
ly hardy towering shrubs from the house
surrounding of farmers. is that farmers are
unacquainted with their merits. This class
OF growth combine the qualities of flower
ing plants and trees. On the one hand
they are as hardy as oaks. once they are
planted. and endure for life time on the
other, they flower most profusely every
year, and their blooms are as sweet and
otherwise attractive as those of any other
flowers. Most hardy garden flowers I'M
der neglect get to be weedy in character,
or at any rate weeds mix up up with them.
a thing not so apt to happen with the bet
ter class of shrubs. A good selection set
about the home in clumps, coming in
flower in succession from April until
September, will add a great charm to the
farm house and relive it of much of that
monotony, which many claim exists on
the farm.
