Some one pithily says: ''We eat 1895
times in a year, and are often reluctant
about giving tree decent meal once a
year." Let us do better this
year. Nothing is better for nearly all
trees and vines than wood ashes and
bone-meal Two to four quarts of ashes

A writer in the Florida Times Union
suggests that the culture of sugar beets
may become a profitable industry in our
State, but do not think SO. Itrequires a
rich, deep, moist soil to grow the sugar beet
to advantage; and on all such soils, in
Florida, the true sugar-cane (saccharum
officinarum) can be raised and manu-
factured more easily and economically, !,
and it is needless to add that cane sugar
and syrup are far superior to anything
that the beet yields.

BRING ALONG THE CENSUS.

Mr.. Patterson, superintendent of the post
al district of Lawrenceville, makes a very
satisfactory report of the growth of that
part of Pittsburg. He says that last years
building operations in LawrenceVilIe were
equal to those of any five years previous
Over five hundred houses were built and the
population is still increasing at the same
rate. Undoubtedly Lawrenceville will
grow more rapidly than ever now that the
cable syitem brings it so much nearer the
center of the city. The country beyond
Lawrenceville is healthy and picturesque,
and with the extension Of rapid transit will
become one of our most desirable suburbs.
But Lawrenceville is not alone IN a
growth approaching the marvellous. Go
where you will in both cities and beyond
their limits the same general characteristics
of great but healthy enlargement present
themselves. The great East End is losing
its groves and meadows, and gaining in
their places houses of all sorts and sizes
from the stone mansion to the frame cottage.
Oakland, once 80 far from, though appar-
emily SO near to, the lower city, has been
brought within easy reach, and the same
transformation Of rural hills and wales into
comely residential streets is rapidly taking
place. So it is all over the uplands that
rise above the business portion of Pittsburg.
On the Southside the multiplication Of
the people and their homes is none the less
remarkable, though the process of change
In that region is not so generally observed,
because special expedition must be made
beyond the bluffs for the purpose. The in
fuence of Pittsburg's expansion is appar-
ent for thirty miles around the city. All
the towns, borOughs and hamlets in the
Ohio Valley are swelling prodigiously. The
heart of the builder is happy, and the real
estate agent can hardly contain himself for
low
