full variety has been much improved of
late, and a number Of very BEAUTIFUL
kinds have been produced by crossing.
The best effect is gained by planting
several varieties. a few of each together

be planted. The seeds should be
planted at once, and by continuous cut

For dietic purposes saccharin is sold
in the form of a white powder in small
bottles and also ia tabloids, each SON
timing half a grain, sufficient to
sweeten an ordinary cup of tea. The
small spoon lifts sufficient of the pow
der for a similar purpose. Estimating
by the sweetening properties, which is
about 80 10 /, the retail price works
out about equal with that of sugar. 1t
will thus be seen that saccharln has o
large field for its use, but it is not Co
extensive with that of sugar, and will
not supersede the product of the cane
and the beet for many purposes. 1t
cannot be used in the making of jam,
for instance, or for candied fruits. as it
will not crystalize, or for the brewing
of beer, as it will not ferment. Thus,
wi lie saccharin comes into competition
with sugar in some directions, it is not
the formidable rival that some people
have imagined.

SUPERIOR VALUE OF YOUNG
PLANTs.-Why, asks Josiah Hooker in
lie New York Tribune, divide old
bearing bushes of c~urrants, gooseber-
ritS, lowering shrubs, etc, to increase
ones stock of plants? This is neces-
ssry in the case of species difficult of
propagation, but for the great majority
Of shrubs a simple hardwood cutting
will emit roots readily in spring. These
rooted cuttings, If properly transplant
ed, rarely T receive any setback, but con-
time growing vigorously from the
start, and quickly arrive at the flower
ing and fruiting age. On the other
hand, old, matured plants, probably
stunted in growth, if taken up and di-
vided still retain a large portion of hard
Old wood and tough, useless roots.
Prune these as we may. the plants will
reluire'a long time to recover from
this treatment, and frequently
form attractive plants. Another point
too often overlooked is that young,
vigorous shoots, and consequently,
large. healthy foliage, 7 absolutely

No SULPHUR IN SAP.-ProfeSsor
Riley pronounces as fallacIous the idea
that insects may be driven from trees
by boring holes through the bark into
the wood, placing sulphur therein and
plugging the whole. The belief in their
eftacing, be says, is founded on the sup
position that the poison passes with the
sap into general circulation and with it
into the foliage, and is destructive to
Ielf feeding insects 1t is an entirely
untcunded idea, aud is based upon ig-
norance Of the fact that the substance
remains intact and is not taken up in
the circulation. Instances where it has
seemed to succeed have been accorded,
and i'll such cases its apparent efficacy
was due to a coincident disappearance
Of the insect from some other cause.

SALT FOR Cows.-If COWS were
forced to eat salt by it being put in their
food it might do them harm, but it is
extremely doubtful if cows will eat too
much salt if they are allowed free ae-
cess to it and free choice to take it or
not. Salt, being an apparent need for
the system, will help to keep the animal
healthy. This will increase the flow of
milk and improve the quality. 1t is
I've ieved that salt will do this directly,
and that its use will improve the churn-
ing quality of the milk. But salt should
lie given regularly. If not there will
be suffering-at one time from lack Of
it, and at another time from excess OF
it. Provide rock salt, and have a place
for it where the cows can always go to
it. Put a trough in the yard, Or a
box in the side of a building with
a roof or a box under the cattle shed.

COurtship In Recent Fiction.
A.lantA Constitution.

In the novels of the past genera
ton lovers were described as models
of devotion, gentleness and courtesy
when they were in the presence Of
their sweethearts.
We see nothing OF this in the
fiction of to-day, in our realistic
stories, and passionate society nov-
els. The typical lover is an ath-
letic young man, whose impudence
and brutality interest and fascinate
the young ladies until they are re-
duced to a state Of whimperipg help
lessness. A recent novel, written Of
course by young woman, has a
lover in it whose main points are
strength, length and a coal black
beard. He accidentally travels with
a girl to whom he has been intro
duced, but who has never seen him
but once On the trip the two talk
about the scenery and the weather,
but the tall man with the big black
beard suddenly goes into a fit Of de-
lirium tremens over his scompanion' s
beauty, and without any warning
gives her a tremendous hug aud
skips out. Later the man with the
beard behaves like a hero at a fire
and calls to see his fellow traveller.
The young lady, who is a society
belle, conducts herself in such a
manner that her visitor feels that il
is his duty to hug her again, with
effusion, as the French say. Th,
wedding follows.
flour young people read much oI
this sort Of stuff they will hav,
queer ideas Of life, and when the!
are turned loose they will cut som,
very astonishing capers.
