Water Lilies in Sulphur Water.
Editor Floral Department.:

Editor Floral Departments
Your favor of the 29th has been for
warded to me from Crescent City. My
collection of water lilies once included
most of the species and varieties sold by
Sturtevant, but found only two of them
succeeded in my pools of sulphur water
| had a year ago a surplus of plants of
Nelumbium Speciosum, Nymphaa Cyanaa
and N. DevOniensis, but during the sum-
mer of 1888 a disease appeared in my ar
tificial pools which killed all my plants OF
n. Devoniensis except a few dormant
buds. When / left my place last May
some of these were making good growth
in q pond of cooler water. but do not
know what they are doing now. I had
unnumbered thousands of n. Cyanaa,
but the plants became so crowded in my
small pond that they destroyed each
other, and I noticed only two or three
roots in bloom in May last.
A little duck weed has so covered the
the surface in my outside ponds that /
can raise only such aquatics as rise high
above the surface. | am getting rid of
the duck weed by letting the pond fiji up
solid with the water poppy.

sively fed upon the pods. The meat of
sheep and pigs is greatly improved in fla
vor by this food, while it's fattening quail
tiles are twice those of oil-cake. The pods
contain about sc per cent. of sugar and
gum. To horses and cattle six pounds
day are given of the crushed pods, raw or
boiled, with or without chaff The Span
ish conquerors took this plant early to
Central and South America.
If his tree will flourish in this State,
and we can see no reason to the con-
trary, we should Judge it to be of consid-
erable value to our farmers, and worthy
of theirattention. We iudgeitto be an or
namental tree and worthy Of a place
among our shade trees. If any of our
readers know how it fourishes in this
State we should be pleased to hear from
them on the subject.
The Florida agriculturist., 1889-07-31

AS TO national flower there are many
men of many minds The difficulty is to
find flower of a habitat sufficiently wide
to represent the whole country. New
England favors the Mayfower. The New
York Sun naturally advocates the claims
OF the sunfOwer, while the Herald, with
unaccustomed modesty. upholds the beau
ty of the violet. Pennsylvania, as Mid
die State, praises the water lily while
Southern people point with pride to the
gorgeous magnolia. In the midst of this
confusion the Boston Advertiser comes
boldly forward with the suggestion of In
dian corn as the national flower. Maize
is certainly an Indigenous plant, but is
more suggestive OF -four than flowers, of
food than beauty or fragrance. Not to
be mealy y-mouthed about it, it is little
too suggestive of hasty pudding. After
all the golden rod comes nearer to filling
the bill than any other flower as yetmen-
toned. 1t has as many varieties as there
are races in America, and a statelness
and brilliancy worthy to represent the
nation.
The Florida agriculturist., 1889-07-31
Old Fashioned Flowers.

There are two such old varieties, whose
ancestors were planted in our front yard
before was born.
When the shade trees grew large, the
flower beds were moved to another part
of the yard, leaving themt to take care for
themselves, and they have fiourished and
increased thousand fold; while Trailer
garden sisters, tenderly cared for and
watered, have faded and died after a brief
existence. One of them is known here by
the name of Old Maid Pink or Bouncing
Betty. It's habit of growth is very much
like the Perennial Phlox, but each indi-
vidual blossom of the spike is as large as
walnut, very double, the petals as fine
as course twine, the color is almost white
in the shade. varying to a pale pink in
the sun. 1t also has rich spicy fragrance
1t is i'll every way as refined looking as
any Perennial Phlox, and is so hardy and
cheerful under all circumstances that it
will flourish anywhere, in sod or by the
roadside, ifnot actually trampled on, ,and
age done to it's stalks and bloom bravely
in spite of a careless foot. With somany
good qualities it is thought of as weed,
not worthy of place in a modern gar
denis SO old-fashioned.
The other variety is the Tiger Lily, that
has massed itself by hundreds round the
trunk of lofty elm. Certainly Solomon
in "all his glory" was not arrayed as
grandly as our lilies; even if thought by
many too old-fashioned for a modern
door yard, | have counted the flowers by
the hundred and then given up the task,
there were still so many more During
their blooming season, in August, the
gorgeous salmon of our dear Tigers, and
the soft tints of Old Maid Pinks make
our yard as gay as a clipped section OF
sunset cloud, a mass of color that would
delight theeyes of any real lovers of flow
ers.-Vick's Magazine for July.

Hypocrite.

This is the not very euphOniOus name
commonly applied to a really beautiful
annual plant known botanically as
Euphorbia Heterophylla. DR.. Chapman
givesit, in his Flora of the Southern United
States, as f. Cyathophora, and says it
apparently was introduced into this
State, but others consider it a native
plant.
Being oneOf those plants which flourish
and multiply like weeds, without care and
in spite of adverse circumst ances, it's
claims to beauty are apt to be either en-
tirely overlooked or greatly under-esti-
mated. 1t soon obtains a fOot-hold
around dwellings,, self-sowing itself and
coming up thickly every year; but as it is
an annual, it is easily kept under control
or wholly exterminated. Until ready to
bloom it possesses no peculiar attraction,
being a very ordinary looking plant with
dark green leaves. But when ready to
bloom a sudden and beautiful transfor-
nation takes place. The bases of the
leaves or bracts, which surround the in
conspicuous flowers, are a brilliant red
and contrast in beautiful and striking
manner with the other leaves These
bracts or flower-heads are produced on
the top of the plant and at the end of

well known in Northern greenhouses,
where it produces it's great scarlet bracts

Carob Tree or St. Johns Bread.


A correspondent in Orange county has
recently sent us some pods OF this tree.
We find them to have an agreeable, sweet
ish taste, with flavor like dates, but a
rather repulsive odor. We find on re-
peated trials that they taste better each
time, and we can readily believe that the
poor of ct untries where it abounds resort
to it for food when grain is scarce. The
pods contain several fiat. brown seeds. in
shape and size much like Poinciana seeds.
1t fourishes under variety of common
names, such Bean tree, CarOb tree, St.
Johns Bread, Locust tree and Algaroba
bean, and is known botanically as Cera-
tOnia Siliqua and belongs to the natural
order of LeguminOsA or Pulse family
The generic name is derived from kera-
tion, horn or pod, in allusion to the
shape of the pods, while Siliqua means
pOdded. 1t is called Keronia by Theo-
phrastus, and Kerateia by DioscOrides
1t is a native of South Europe and was
introduced in 1870.
The Dictionary of Gardening says of it:
can evergreen tree with thick trunk,
and abruptly pinnate, cOriaceous, shining
leaves. ItthriveS we'll in the South of Eng

Height, thirty to fifty feet : X This
tree is much cultivated in the south of
Europe for the sake of the pods, the pulp
of which is eaten; these are four inches or
more in length and are, as we'll as the
seeds, of a dusky ferruginous color"
HendersOn's Hand Book of Plants con-
tains the following: sc. Siliqua, the
only species, is a tree of medium size,
growing extensively in the south of
Europe, particularly in some of the Span
ish provinces, and produces fruit known
as the Carob Bean, which is an import
ant article OF commerce. 1t is chiefly used
for the feeding of cattle, but is largely
used by the poor for food when there is
scarcity of grain. This is generally con-
sidered the locust tree of Scripture, and in
Spain, where the seeds are eaten, it is
called ST. Johns Bread. Under this name
the pods are often sold on the streets of
New York. 1t is now generally supposed
that the shells of the Carob pod were the
husks that the prodigal son desired to
partake of with the swine'

were not blindfolded, avoided collisions,
stopped to let street cars and cable cars
pass and drew up in front of the Mer-
chants hotel. Selling DR.. Murphy by
the arm, he dragged him through the
crowded corridor on dead run, rushed
up to the elevator, and, together with
the committee, mounted to the top.
Reaching the fifth floor he cried s'Stop!"
Holding DR.. Murphy's arm fast, he
rushed down one corridor and up an
other, stopping at room 135. He then
turned back, and, tapping the door of
ll34, said 'Quick, open the door, this
lis the roomn' DR.. Murphy had
the key in his pocket and
iOpened the door. The five COM
lmitteemen, accompanied by the blind
folded Bishop, entered, and the door
was relocked. Mr.. Bishop felt around
the window and bureau for few sec
ionds, and then made for big plush
armchair. Raising tidy, he drew the
pin from the cushion, and demanded to
be unblinded. DIR. Murphy felt his
pulse, which was beating at 1874. Gen.
Sturgis said afterwards that he was
perfectly convinced of Bishops won
derful power. There could be no sug-
gestion of collision, as not word was
spoken. Every member of the commit
tee expressed his entire satisfaction and
utter establishment at the complete sue
cess of the test, not the least marvellous
part of which was the driving pair of
horses blindfOld through four blocks of
crowded streets. Mr. Bishop was much
exhausted at the conclusion, but after
few hours rest and reStoratiYeS was all
right
