An Attractive Drawing. Room.


All our decorations should be chosen
with the view of making our drawing
rooms cheerful and pleasant to live
in; the display Of good taste should be
everywhere noticeable, but comfort
should be considered OF the first i'm
portance. Books, papers, music nnd
works baskets will be present, but the
latter should be natty in style. The
seats should be luxurious, for the
drawing room is a. place OF ease when
our work for the day is over. 6 Small
tables may be placed about in conven-
lent corners by the side of arm chairs
and sofas, and curtains hung at the
door. or screen placed in front of it
in winter time, If theSe is any draught
from beneath. We need ventilation
above our heads, not draughts
that chill our feet and drive us
to toast our feet upon the fender In
our leisure hours we are more fas-
tidious and notice all the little dis
comforts that in our busiest times we
treat with coutempt>cr sarce1y feel at
all. In winter let us have a splendid
fire that will look CHEEKY when our Wis
itors drop in of an evening; a pleasant
contrast to the cold winds and snowy
roads outside In summer let us keep
the windows shaded during the day
time, so that the room will be a cool
and refreshing retreat after the heat
of the day. All the year round let
there be an abundance Of flowers if
possible-both cut flowers and grow
ing plants and ferns. Nothing can vie
as O. decoration with the exquisite
tints and the graceful forms Of nature,
and the plainest furnished room pos
sesses in their presence a charm which
is wanting to the most magnificent
when their beauty is absent.-Cassell's
Family Magazine.

TomAio Plants.
Prof. E, S. Goff, of the New York Ex-
pertinent Station, states that tomato
plants from self-grown seed ripen into
fruit nearly as early as those started
early in the hot-bed.5 In order to dis
cover how much time is gained In Sc
curing ripe fruits by forcing the young
plants we planted a few seeds of the
Livingston's Favorite tomato in hills
in the open ground in the garden on
April "a, placing about ten seeds in
each hill. These had vegetated on
May -. No especial care was given
the young plants, and they were not
covered at any time to protect them
fromfrosts. AS they grew large enough
to crowd each other they were thinned
to one plant in hill, and afterwards
received the same treatment as the
plants that were transplanted from
the hot-bed. The plants from seeds
planted In the open ground, ripen-
ed in the first fruit August 81,
or 119 days from planting,
while plants of the same variety re-
moved from the hot-bed planted March
% ripened their first fruit August 10,
or la days from planting. In other
words, plants grown entirely in the
open ground matured fruit in twenty
five days shorter time than those
which were cared for in the hotbed the
first two months Of their existence.
The result is certainly striking and
suggests that the check given to the
plants at the time Of transplanting
may have been nearly sufficient to
over-balance all the time gained by
forcing. We were careful to harden
the plants in the hot-bed before re-
moving them them to the garden, and
in order that the shock Of transplant
ing might be telt as little as possible,
we potted the plants several days be-
fore replanting them in the garden,
carefully shading them until they were
rooted in the pots. Did the trans
planting check the growth so much Or
did the heat Of the hot-bed enfeeble
them? The subject merits further eS-
pertinent.

Alfalfa.

It is amusing to read in Eastern pa
pers about the mystery thought
to surround the culture of alfalfa Qu-
cern). A recent article directed to SOW
it in drills and pull out the weeds!
have been growing it five years, and
have some forty acres. Plant exactly
Us you would red clover and give the
same treatment. When we do not
SOW it with grain we let the.weeds
grow until they get pretty large (be-
fore they go to seed); then water it,
and as soon thereafter as possible to
get the mower over the ground we cut
it, weeds and all, and rake up and
haul off the crop. The alfalfa then
grows SO rapidly-more than an inch
a day-that it smothers all kinds of
weeds, and we are never troubled with
them thereafter. Alfalfa will Weld
from three to fourteen bushels OF seed
per acre, and at II cents per pound Is
an excellent paying crop. We save
the first growth for seed. l cut some
alfalfa four times last year and got q
good hay crop at each cutting. The
aggregate yield generally averages
from four to six tons per acre for the
season. Our main trouble is how to
eradicate it after it has possession of
the land. In a few years the stand
becomes thinner and then timo-
thy can be sown among the alfalfa and
will kill it out. We do not find it nee
essary to put it on very rich soil;
some of the poorest land I have yield
ed immense crops OF hay the past five
years.. J. McClellend, Lorimer Co.,

Too MANY Varietieg.

The experienced orchardist seldom
orders more than two or three sorts
OF pears, apples, grapes, or raspber-
ries to be planted largely for field cul-
ture. The novice feels as though he
must plant almost everything he ever
heard OF. This course is disastrous
to the best financial results. Take,
for instance, list of twenty o. thirty
pears and you will find few otthem de-
sirable for market. Many are too
small, though of fine quality. Others
are large and desirable for family, but
not attractive in appearance, and not
appreciated in market. Othere are
feeble growers, requiring the highest
cultivation and soil peculiarly adapt
ed to them. 1t is usually the SANG,
WITH apples, grapes and other fruits.
ny advice is, for the uninformed, not
to plant until he can find some person
in whom he has confidence, and who
can advise wisely. Experimental Or
chards and vineyards are often con-
Quoted at considerable expense instead
of profit, and yet the novice would
make his commercial orchard an ex-
perilnental orchard, embracing many
varieties that the experienced would
not think of planting.-N. Y. Tribune.
