KaisinH Lettuce.

ha1s1u8 L0ttuces
 Among the common salads there is none in such general demand for the table as lettuce. It is an easy grower and yet it needs for it's best development a good soil and careful culture. Lettuce is too often treated as subsidiary crop, and is sown too thickly in seed-beds and grown too thickly together. The lettuce bed should always, where possible, be set apart from the rest of the garden in some way so that it may be cultivated freely without disturbing other vegetables. Not only should the soil be mellow, deep and highly enriched with manure, but it should have full exposure to the air, with perfect draining. In the opinion of MT. William Barley, an authority on the kitchen garden, those who would secure a fine growth of lettuce should give their chief attention to its culture in the early summer or in the autumn months. The heat and aridity of moderately dry sum- mers too generally hurry its growth into towering and the seed form.
 To secure the autumn crop, sowing should be made during the second or third week in July, choosing cloudy or rainy weather if possible. For main crop the seed is usually sown by market gardeners in the open ground about the middle of September, and transplanted to cold frames as soon as large enough to handle, being wintered over in the same manner as early cabbage. Plants have been known to come out in the spring perfectly fresh, from seed sown in the open ground in the middle of September. Lettuce IS plant of comparatively ten der growth, and unless care is taken tc promptly destroy all weeds it may be quickly choked up so as to be worthless. The kinds best to use are those known as Black Seeded Simpson and Salamander the one is curled leaf variety; the othel ] is plain or smooth leayed, and forms { solid head.

Mind i'm FarmiI10'.

The idea has generally prevailed in the past, and possibly more by farmers than others, that for the business of farming but little intellectual trainin. g was neces- sary. A willingness to work on in the old routine, that has been transmitted from the practices of the pssst, was all that could be safely relied on for success. This narrow view, born and kept alive by ignorance only, is mistaken fallacy of the past, fast dying out, rather than the sentiment of intelligent, present thought. The agriculture of to-day is not based on manual labor alone. The education of the mental faculties, as we'll as the training of the hand to work skill fully, is recognized as an essential in it. | ting for the life work of the farm. Upon these, intelligence and labor combined, rest the hope of progress in agriculture. And yet it may be questioned if farmers fully appreciate the value to their chill dren of home training and education in the work and in the business of the farm. Each year there go out from the farms young men and women to assume the work of managing farms for them selves. Are these young men and women as we'll educated and trained in the work and business affairs of the farm as they, the sons and daughters of farmers, ought, with their opportunities, to be2 We fear there is yet too much of indifference in parents in teaching their children the business of farming, not only as a trade, but as profession.

LONDON, Sept. S.--Since the inter
view between the government and Par
nell has been abandoned, Lord Randolph
Churchill Is disposed to bargain with
MIR. ParnelI on the basis Of government
support Of single clause Of Parnelrs
bill relating to suspension Of evictions.
A majority Of the Cabinet are opposed
to any Irish legislation until next year.
Lord Harrington insisted that there
should be no tampering with the Parnell
bill, and proposed Lord Salisbury the
vote Of the UnionIsts II the government
absolutely opposed the bill. The Cham
bsrIain section will not vote on the bill.
Chamberlain, who has gone to the coun.
try, says be will take no part in the de-
bate. He adheres to his determination
to do nothing to embarrAss The govern
ment la dealing with Ireland.
Lord Randolph Churchill will offer
ParnelI facilities for . second read-
ing of his bill on the 10th inst.
on condition that the Parneliites offer
no obstrucsion to the passage of the
whole Of the estimates. The Parneil.
itss are aiming to retain control of the
Government and insist upon the oonsid-
Grafton Of Parnell's bill before the estl-
mates. The probable issue will be that
Parnell will accept Lord Randolph's Of
fer. knowing thar the defeat OF his bill
is certain. Parnell has sent q draft Of
bis measure to Gladstone. The first
clause provides that lease holders may
apply to the courts to FIX judie al rents;
second, that tenants whose rents were
liked year ago may apply to the courts
for revolution, end third, that the
coui ts, pending decision on applications,
may suspend ejsctment on payment Of
such proportion Of rent Is the court
may decide proper. Tie Government

short and that the House will adjourn on
