THE New CELERY CULTURE.-In or
der to get celery in good shape for use
before August 1st, says -1mcricon Gm-
deaiag, we must have good plants early
in May, and set them in very rich
ground. Our present task is to get the
seed to start promptly. Pick out the
plants in other flats or in hotbeds or cold
frames where well protected, giving all
the space needed and stimulate a
strong and healthy growth by every
means in our power.
For home purposes we rather like
the system of close planting known as
''the new celery culture" and the bulk
of our plants, both of the early and the
late celery, is planted in rows ten
inches one way by five inches the 9TH
er. This takes good many plants for
small patch, and we must make our
calculations accordingly. At any rate,
readers are advised to give this method
trial.
White plume has been our main stay.
Golden self blanching is of better quail
ity and of rich golden yellow color, but
it is almost too dwarlish. A pink sort
of white plume has been introduced
under the name ''pink plume These
three varieties are the ones available
for the summer crop.

Ncbraska'S Ocean.

The best scientists of the land favor
the opinion that Nebraska, Kansas and
part Of the Indian Territory are situat-
ed over an immense underground lake
or sea. 1t is well-known fact that in
several places in Kansas whole sections
of land have suddenly disappeared,
leaving only fathomless lakelets TO
mark the spot where they were once
situated. Proof that there is something
peculiar with the foundation of the sec
ton of the country mentioned may be
found in the celebrated "tide wells of
Polk. Butler and Colfax counties in Ne
braska. Poll; county is best provided
with these curious wells, having be-
tween dozen and twenty, which roar
and ebb and flow with an unseen tide.
The roaring of these remarkable curios-
ities (they cannot be called natural
wonders, because they are the work of
man, at least so far as excavation is
concerned} is caused by the inhalation
and exhalation of immense quantities
of air. There are hours, regular and
uniform, in which the air will rush out
with loud, kissing sound, and again
an equal space of time in which it seems
that all the air of the Platte Valley will
be sucked into the cavernous depths of
these wonderful wells.
The period Of ebb and flow does not
seem to depend upon either the seasons
or the state of the weather, but it is
thought to have some mysterious con-
nection with the high and low tide pc
rods of the Atlantic and Pacific oceans.
4 meteorologist of national rep
utation, who sought to fathom the mys-
terry of the "Platte river tidewells, and
who issued little pamphlet with the
title Roaring Wells Of Nebraska"
gave it as his opinion that the roaring
phenomenon was in some way connect
ed with the prevailing direction of the
wind, being strongest in time of west or
southwest breezes. The farmers in the
three counties mentioned as being best
provided with these tide-regulated, air
expellng wells believe that the water
supply is connected with body large
enough to have regular ebb and flow
of tide. All the wells in the counties of
Polk and Butler which are tide-regu
lated are of about the same depth, those
of Cofax being deeper, but all extend
ing to a porous stratum having the
same general characteristics.

Observation-Disclosures pai-
ticularly respect it is the very hinge
of all virtues. On looking over the
world, the cause of nine parts in ten of
the lamentable failures which occur in
mems undertakings, and darken and
degrade so much of their history, lies
not in the want of talents, or the will
TO use them, but in the vacillatlng and
desultory mode of using them, in flying
from object to object, in starting away
at each little disgust, and thus apply
ing the force which might conquer any
one difficulty to series of difficulties
so large that no human force can con-
quer them.-Carlisle.
