Flower

81 am ready to testify under oath
that if it had not been for August
Flower should have died before
this. Eight years ago I was taken
sick, and suffered as no one but
a dyspeptic can. I employed three
of our best doctors and received
no benefit. They told me that l had
heart, kidney, and liver trouble.
Everything 1 ate distressed ME SO
that 1 had to throw it UP. August
Flower cured me. There is no med
icine equal to it." LORENZO r.

1t is not an easy task to be always
successful in making hotbeds, especial
" if they are to be made early IN the
season. I prefer for this purpose ma.
hure from highly-fed horses, and it
should be kept under shelter and not
allowed to freeze. 1t should also be
fresh and moderately moist.
In making hotbeds early in the sea-
son, plenty of manure should be used,
say a layer at least "a inches deep.
Mix it thoroughly with about one
fourth of its bulk of litter, such as for
est leaves or straw. 1t shonld be mod
erately and evenly packed and
tramped all over the bed, SO that it will
be level and heat evenly all through.
Leave the bed we'll covered and pro.
tected for few days, to sec if it heats
properly.
In the meantime, select in tho woods
a rich, loamy spot of ground, and burn
on it, to kill the weed seeds, a good
sized brushheap. Mix this soil and
ashes and spread it N an even laye.
six inches deep over the bed. This soil
should be loose and loamy, and full OF
decaying vegetable matter, so that it
will not bake or become solid. 1t will
apt to get too hot. 1t is much less Ia
Dor to burn the soil and kill the weed
seeds than to pull the weeds afterward,
and treated in this way the bed will
always be clean. This is especially
advisable if the bed is to be sown with
onion seeds, and the seedlings to be
| transplanted.

The roadbed through q wet and

of the road is below the land on each
side, will become vet from the mois-

will become impassable. The only
way to drain such road is longi-
tudinally, with three-inch drain tiles,
reaning the whole length of the road
to be drained; one line of tile beneath
the middle of the road, and one be-
meath each side; it should be of the
porous cheap tile, such as that used in
some sections for sub-soil irrigation,
which will freely admit the water;
the larger the pores the better. This
will carry off all the water, and the air
passing through the tiles will keep the
bottom of the road dry. Then select

Fashions in Orphans.

New York Herald
A fussy little woman went to an or
phan asylum to adopt an orphan. She
picked out little girl with red hair, and
after giving receipt for her, left.
She returned next day and said to the
uperintendent: My husband thinks
this orphan won't suit. Haven't you
got any with black hair and blues eyes?"
The superintendent hunted through
the institution and found nothing of the
color wanted. 1t is rather rare combi-
nation anyway, l have heard. Then the
woman got mad.
"Whv don't you keep proper assort-
ment of orphans?'' she demanded -
Whats the use of running place in
this one-horse way? Over in the Brook
ly home they've got orphans of all col
ors. You'll ruin the business if you act
like this. Don't you find your custom
ers are going elsewhere? When do you
think you'll have an orphan with black
hair and blue eyes?"
The colors aren't fashionable" said
the superintendent, "but L shall be
pleased to communicate with you and
fill your order when | am able to do So"
