sow FALL SPINACH.

Spinach is a crop that can be obtained
for the table continuously all the SIM
mer by successional sowing. But spring
and fall are the times when one looks for
dish OF spinach. In the spring-tim it
IS especially valuable as among the first
green crOps~to come in. In localities
where the climate is not quite so severe
ms with us, it is easily kept out-of-doors
all winter and ready TO start into fresh
growth as soon as the frost leaves. In
the North, where the snow covers the
ground early, there is also no dihiulty.
For ordinary culture slight protection
Is easily applied with corn stalks. straw
and so on. This, however, does not nav
for the marketman.
The time TO SOW for fall use is August
If the growing weather continues late
some cuttings arc obtained rs soon as the
leaves arc large enough to handle even
up 10 November. If these leaves are
pIucked, Others continue TO grow, so that,
for fall or spring use, one sowing viii
furnish a good many dishes. When the
crop IS growing in the summer. It quick
~ goes into seed, and the whole plant is
then cut of and used.
An ounce OF seed contains some 24OO
and IS enough for family use. II to
stand all the winter, September is early
enough TO sow. The best winter spinach
IS the prickly or winter; for summer use.
the round-secdcd
Except the months Of January and
February, August is a month requiring
less labor in the vegetable garden than
any other. Usually all the planting has
been done in July. Such as may still bc
planted are late celery Radish and
other salads are always in season, and
may yet be sown.-Prajrie Farnier.

HOW TO GIVE CHICKS 4 FAIR SHOW.
When chicks of different ages are run

the food for the little ones should be
thrown under slated coops into which
only such can enter. This will save the

A complete service Of Fast Express Trains is
now in iull operation between New York, Phil
adelpha, Baltimore and Washington, via the
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad. The New York
outlet is furnished by the central r. r. OF New
Jersey. and passengers are landed at the station
Of the latter company at the foot Of Liberty
street, New York. two blocks from the Elevated
Railroad. All the trains are equipped with
handsome coaches and Pullman's Parlor and
Sleeping cars Two Of the trains are composed
exclusively Of Vestibuled cars, but, in accord
ance with its long-avowed policy, the B. q o.
exacts no extra fare for improved service. Pas

Of course, pay the ordinary Pullman charges
but no extra charge for Limited Express service
is imposed by the b. q o.
The B. Il q. still continues to operate the fast
est trains ever placed In service between Phila-
delphia, Baltimore and Washington, and the
remarkable record for punctualty achieved by
these trains indicates what the public may ex.
pect of their New York schedule.
1t is fact, now generally known, that the
fastest trainsin America are run on the g. & q
r. n, between Baltimore and Washington
There are eight trains in the schedule of "a eacl
way, that cover the dstauce of 40 miles in q
minutes, or at the rate OF So miles per hour

B. 81 o. trains do it every day, and have done u
every day for several years.
The line between New York and Washington
is double-tracked and laid with heavy stee
rails on oak ties, ballasted with broken stone
There is not better constructed, better main
tanned, better equipped, or better operated
road in the land, and with these conditions th'
new line is prepared to render efficient service
and thereby aims to secure public approval ant

He offered through the papers forty dollars
for the recovery of the cat, and It is said
that two of the smartest of Pinkerton's
detectives are on the job. In the mean
time the company lays still, and there are
forty of them, and to every effort of the
manager to arouse the sorrowing trage-
dienne from his lethargy he replies with
fearful eyes, no, no, no, no catee; no playee;
no catee; no playee; no, no, no. They

The assessment cases of the several coal
companies in the upper end, of which we
made note heretofore, will be heard in ar
gument court on Monday at Mauch Chunk
1t is not likely that there will be decision
against Carbon county from the very afct
that the assessment as levied is a credita-
Bile and just one to all parties concerned =
the assessors, the county, the people and
especially TO the corporations who have
been enjoying the benefits of an unequal
and unjust assessment for many Years.
The ''fu'l value" assessment as ordered to
he levied by the county commissioners
raised fufore of discomfort because the
order in effect was not correctly understood
by many people. 1t is understood now
and appreciated by taxpayers because it
has had tendency to equitably equalize
much of the inequality of taxation. 1t
worked correctly and the court should sus-
tain the county,
