GARDEN MANURE.

The best manure for either vegetables or
fruits is well decompOsed barn-yard ma
nure. 1t IS not advisable to use fresh
manure, as in such condition it is unfit
for plant food, and if it Is put into the soil
dry and fresh, It is long time before it
gets in condition so that the roots Of plants
derive nouriShment from il; better place it
in a seap and allow it to ierment and rot
before putting it into the ground A writer
in the Practical farmer says all vegetables
require well mauwed soil, some, of course,
much more than others. Cabbage, celery
sweet corn and ,caulidowers, especially, re-
quire rich soil. For peas, beans and toma-
toes, if the soil-is in tolerablv good condi-
tion, top dress Of wood ashes applied
after plowing and well narrowed in, is ex-
celIent in most kinds OF soil have often
raised better crops Of these vegetables when
an application Of. wood ashes was given
than when barn-yard manure was used:
there was less vine and more fruit Work
ing the ground at the proper time IS
another essential to be attended to, Clayey
land has TO be carefully worked, especially
when plowed in the spring. If wet when
plowed it remains in lumpy condition all
summer, and as p consequence poor crops
can only be expected. Thorough cultiva-
tion before the seeds are put into the
ground greatly accslerates the work dur
ing the entire season.

ORIGIN OF BLOOD ORANGES.

The blood orange is a mere variety Of
the sweet orange obtained by cultivation,
and appears first to have been raised by
Spanish gardeners in the Philippine
Islands, from the Capital of which MA
nila) it, together with the well-known
cigars, formed at one time one of the
chief articles of export. On its first ap-
pearance in Europe it excited a consider
able sensation, and, in the last century,
very high prices were demanded for the
tree which bore the wonderful fruit More,
however, now come from Malta, where
great pains are bestowed upon their culti-
vation. 1t was for long time supposed
and, indeed, the idea is not vet quite ex-
tinct-that blood oranges were produced
by the grating Of the orange with the
pomegranate; but there is not the slightest
foundation for the belief.-Er.

THE WHOLE STORY

OF Canadian aggression upon American
commerce may be told in few words
From the time when the Wellsnd and St
Lawrence canals were opened the United
States has adopted policy of perfect re-
ciprocity of transportation facilities toward
Canada, in what is commonly known as
"the transit trade Passage through either
country has been allowed without any i'm
pediment of customs duties, over lines
partly in one country and partly in the
other, and forming direct routes of trans
portation between the West and the sea-
board. II railroad construction in the
two countries had been left to the inter
action of commercial forces, that policy
might have been permitted to go on undis-
turbed. But the Dominion Government

Mind-Telegraphy.

From time to time there are Instances
recorded of ''presentiments" that have
been justified by the subsequent facts.
If, however, a person should compare
the number of presentiments which
have sounded false alarm with the
few that did announce an approaching
danger, he would be a skeptic as 70
their value as prophecies of impending
evil. Yet the few which really are
prophetic suggest that there may be a
mysterious connection between mind
and mind, so subtle as to elude our
philosophy. A writer in Chambers S
Journal mentions an instance OF '.pre-
sentiment" or. as he calls it, mind
telegraphy. He says:
The wife of the writer has a cousin,
lady of extremely nervous and ex-
citable nature, who many years ago
WAS staying with her husband for the
season in apartments near Hyde Park
The landlady Was a middle-aged
woman, apparently a widow; at any
rate, she dressed In black, and no one
who could In any way be regarded as a
landlord was ever visible
Indeed, except the husband of my
wife's cousin and a lad who did odd
Jobs about the house, there was not one
For some weeks, no untoward Incl
dent of any kind happened; the season
progressed merrily, and my wife's relI-

gayities without stint.
One evening. however, Mrs. W
was dressing to go the opera She was
alone IN the chamber-her husband
having, with the superior celerity that
pertains to the masculine toilet, CON-
pleted his attire and descended to the
drawing-r room.

sensation of terror came over me. For

Child's Love Of Nature.

There are many pieces Of sheer good
fortune for children of luck in this

or handsome, or TO have the talents
which command the price of life. But
it is perhaps no less happy and su-
preme a gilt TO have been born child
of the universe; 10 have known in early
childhood brooks, mountains, and seas,
to have felt the championship Of the sky,
and in listening to its thunder to have
heard deep calling unto to deep. There
Is often an incommulicAble and half
unconscious sense Of these things in the
heart of a child. wholly apart from any
training or habit Of observation. 1t Is
a seed which any sJil will quicken; the
commonest landscape will be food for
il as fine as the Alps. In fact, there IS
sometimes with the child as with the
artist a sort of instructive selection Of

Hans markart's Beautiful Models

Talking of pictures recalls an inter
esting bit of information regarding the
late VIennese master Hans Makart. IIi
comparing the works of the greal,
painter one cannot help being struck
with the recurrence of two stately fig
ures, usually the most important OF
the picture. In his DIANA" his
"Charles V. Entering Antwerp" and
many others these figures of surprising
beauty occur again and again. The
originals of the pictures are row living
in Vienna. They are the two daugu-
ters of Herr KlnkoSch, a leading gOl
and silver smith of the city. Kiln
kosch, the father, is an expert In his
profession. Most of his work consists IN
designing presents for the royal family
and the government, as gifts to for
eign ambassadors. Makdrt was his in
Innate friend, and, receiving permIs-
sion, painted his daughters as the hero
ines OF his great paintings. Instantly
they became the rage, and the Niennese
court, usually so puncUilious regarding
questions of birth, freely welcomed the
beauties immortalized by the brush Of
the painter. 1t is some years now since
MaEart died, but the beautiful Kiln
kosch sisters. although little passee,
are still seen in Vienna society, They
