IN THE CAPITOL GROUNDS
the work done during the year consisted in
grading, dressing, and planting the grounds
near the terrace as rapidly as the advance of
the masonry work would allow. 1t is complete
at the north and south ends and ON the west
face Of each of the corner pavilions The tun-
mel heretofore in use for conveying fresh air
from the ventilating tower to the House wing
OF the capitol has been replaced by one adapted
| TO the changes of grade resulting from the
introduction Of the terrace. Wrought-iron
lamp frames and ratings have been placed at
the Maryland avenue entrance to the grounds
Attention Is directed in the report to the con-
! dtion Of the carriageway on the east front of
the capitol, which requires frequent repairs,
| and an appropriation is recommended for re-
| laying this pavement.

| printing Office and to erect thereon under the
supervision of the architect of the capitol. a

| and the cost of the building, sl0, 955.62, leav-
| ing an unexpended balance of the appropria-
| ton Of S9l9.3S. The building has been COM

FREEDMENS HOSPITAL AND ASYLUM.
The whole number of patients treated in this
hospital during the year, as shown by the re-
port of the surgeon in charge, was 2,254, and
in addition 3,S41 received attention in the dis
pensary attached to the hospital. OF the num-
Der admitted for treatment $50 were persons
who had served in the army or navy and had
come to the city to look after their claims for
pension without the means of providing for
their maintenance while here, and 20 were ex-
soldiers who were permitted to enter the hos
pital while awaiting transportation to national
soldiers homes. The expense of providing for
the latter class is reimbursed to the hospital by
the directors of the homes.

WOOD PULP is rapidly being substituted
for plaster of Paris in tho manufacture OF

ONE of the great difficulties in printing on

It is reported that a remedy has been found
for this trouble, by saturating the fingers OF
the fly with glycerine diluted with water,

PLuMs IN PLENTY.

Varieties That Can Not Well BE Surpassed
In Productiveness.
Plum culture has not been q success
with every grower in recent years,
principally on account of the terrible
work OF the curculio, most clumsy
fellow generally. yet only too active
when bent on the perpetuation Of its
own race. This insect has effectually
prevented over-produc ton of plums,
and also deprived the majority of home
growers Of their home supply. With
our present knowledge, and number
of varieties of plums which are prac-
tically curoulio-proof to select from.
we see no reason why the amateur
should give up in despair. or let the
curculio have all its own way. Many
Of our native sorts will produce full
crops in spite of all insects. and so will
the newly-introduced Japan plums. of
which Ogon, Botan and Kelsey's have
been tested quite extensively and found
of great merit We have seen Ogon
trees loaded down with ripe fruit
every specimen of which bore the
scarcely visible traces of from three to
five of the ominous crescent marks,
proving to our satisfaction that the
fruit is able to outgrow the curculio
sting and to take care Of itself. The
same was our experience with the DE
Soto plum, one of the natives from
Minnesota. These two varieties can
not very well be surpassed in produc-
tivcness-
The Ogon is a round plum (the Cali
fornia growers, who describe it as oval
or cgg-shapcd. must have different
Variety, of good size. bright golden
yellow, fine, sweet but rather dry
flesh; excellent for canning; ripens here
toward the end of July; tree vigorous
grower; and apparently hardy.
De Soto is an American plum, Of
medium size. bright red color and good
quality. its productiveness is simply
wonderful Tree entirely hardy. As
blossom and pollen producer it is not
surpassed by any sort with which we
are acquainted, and this feature We
consider of greatest value. Trees OF
this sort should be planted scatteringly
among other varieties in every plum
orchard; and it will then 'bear ant
make bear" In abundance. The HON,
grower who wants to make sure of al
annual and abundant supply. SHOULD
plant several trees together. selecting
lmost any Of the best standard sorts
with at least one Ogon and one D.
Soto in the middle Of the cluster o
trees; or he may graft cions of variou
sorts, always including Ogon and ID
Soto, into limbs Of one or more larger
hardy plum trees--a native sort Away
preferred. = Orchard and Garden.
