It is with much pleasure that | note the
improved condition of the anthracite coal
trade, and also the fact that the miners and
business men of this vicinity will be greatly
benefited thereby. When the men at the
mines are receiving good pay and full time,
everything is prosperous and every branch Of
business isstimulated. Our merchants should
prepare for a lively fall trade. Within the
next two or three weeks fall and winter
goods will be in great demand, and the
merchant who informs the people through
the columns of a newspaper, what he has to
offer them will reap the greatest benefit
from the improved trade. Evidence is being

can't realize how it is that your soil
does not produce bulbs. thought they
would flourish anywhere that any root
crop would grow. There is not the least
trouble about them here. But perhaps
the reason may be that the expense OF
applying muck, as l understand it, is
necessary to do in order to succeed with
bulbs and roses, is greater than success
is worth. Ours is dark loamy soil with
clay subsoil and it is no trouble to have
anything grow that is planted.
I'VE do not understand the above ref
erence to our soil not producing bulbs,
for it does produce a great variety of
bulbs-nearly all the Amaryllis family
and many others. Such bulbs as Hya-
cinths and Tulips are failure here in
South Florida-but owing to the cli-
mate, not the soil. The application Of
muck is undoubtedly a good thing, but
few use it, and it is certainly not abso-
lutely necessary to the successful growth
of bulbs and roses. EDITOR FLORAL DE-.

Roses.

The South appears to be the home of
the rose. Under proper culture they
give very satisfactory results.
American Beauty, though not of the
best color. in every other respect is
very desirable rose. 1t blooms prOfusely,
and on account of the immense size of
it's blooms they are much sought after.
Meteor is in favor again, and de-
servedly so, as it is very fine rose. 1t
is lovely crimson.
La France and Duchess of Albany are
very desirable varieties. They bloom so
profusely that it is we'll to disbud them,
thus obtaining blooms of immense size.
They must not borrow roots, as they do
best on their own. Specimens of each
standing side by side and receiving the
same treatment prove the truth Of this
assertion.
Madame Caroline Yestout, with it's
lovely pink blooms, is grand acquisi-
ton. 1t is desirable bedding variety.
Its foliage is also very beautiful.
Pearle of the Garden; Sunset M. Mel
and Glorie de DIXON are all very desi-
rable varieties. Sunset, as it's name sug
gests, is a golden yellow with a CLEAN
of crimson. Glorie de Dion is of the
same color but of different form. This
is a general favorite in England and
every tiower-lover has his Glorie de
Dijon.
Clotilde Soupert, half Polyantha, is
one of the most desirable roses. 1t pos
sesses all good qualities. 1t should grace
every rose garden. 1t is fine as pot
plant. No matter where this favorite
is planted, it always responds to kind
treatment.
Gen. de Tartas has immense pink buds
and is very satisfactory in every respect.
Cornelia Cook, with it's long, pointed
buds and stems of almost any length,
does finely in this climate-that is under
proper culture, At the North it only
succeeds as greenhouse plant.
Marie Guillot is fine white rose but
is rather shy bloomer.
The Bride and Queen are among the
best whites.
leila Pradel, a climber, is a creamy
white, and blooms continuously and
profusely. It's good qualities are
stamped upon it's brow
There are so many old favorites that
give such satisfactory results, and so
many new beauties that a rose garden
needs to occupy considerable land.

LONELINESS OF THE PACIFIC
Four Thousand Mile Trips May Be Made
 Without Seeing a Sail.

Four Thousand Mile Trips May Be Made
 Without Seeing Sail.
 ''I notice an item in the press stating that the City of Picking in her recent trip sailed twelve hundred and forty miles without meeting a single sail, and this fact is cited as showing. the loneliness of the Pacific ocean," says a writer in the Washington Star. "In the summer of 1850 I left San Francis co on sail vessel (formerly from Bal timore) for Panama, distant four thou sand miles, and on the entire route, which lasted forty-three days, we never saw a sail! Loneliness is no word for it, especially when we lay becalmed in the tropics, with our vessel floating as helplessly about as chip on mill pond, the ground swells keeping up the monotonous roll of the vessel from side to side all day and night and day after day, each roll being accompanied by a flap of the sails and a creaking of the rigging that might have passed for the flap of the wings and the vail of lost spirits. When we read about Noah and his ark we are apt to think that he must have had rather a lonely time, but then he was out only forty days, and besides, with all the animals, etc., on board, he had plenty to occupy his time and attention, and if he wanted amusement to while away the time he had only to start sparring match be- tween the'monkeys and parrots. True, there is no report of any such proceed ing on his part, but that is doubtless because there was no modern news paper reporter on board. tell you, a man can't realize what loneliness is until he has made some such trip, and if he wants to complete his educa tion in that line he should preface it with a tramp of two thousand miles over the mountains and acr oss the deserts amid wolves and wild Indians, as thousands of '49-ers did.''
