Roadside Accommodation. for Travel

Roadside Recommendations for Travel
The ''rtst-house" is a governmental
system providing roadside accom-
modati9ps, carried in Ceylon to high
er standard of excellence possibly than
in any OF the eastern countries. En-
glish occupation has everywhere been
synonymous with the development of
resources, and it has ever been rec
ognized that the first step in this direc-
ton must be the opening of roads and
their maintenance in good condition.
1t was early found that the use of the
roads by Europeans and the better
class of natives depended to large ex-
tent upon the possibility of breaking
journey at convenient stages, especial
ly at night. In a newly-opened-
up country it could not be
that suitable places for the en-
tertainment of travellers would exist
at points where most required, and as
the natives themselves were not to be
depended upon to furnish adequate en-
tertainment, the government decided
to erect and furnish rest-houses as a
part of the general road system.
The result in Ceylon is that through
out the island, where means of COM
munication by roadways have been es-
tablished, there are at convenient
points neat and comfortably-f Furnished
stopping-places, managed by natives,
it is true, but under the close super
vision of the roadway officials who are
Europeans. The rest-houses. many of
them, compare favorably with the best
of the private bungalows in the Sec
tions where they are located; and not
infrequently the taste displayed in
the planting and training of flow
ers, foliage plants, vines, and
ferns together with the artistic arch
itecture, renders them pictures wor
thy Of a painters brush. These houses
are in charge of a native, who is
known as the butler, and who for the
care of the establishment has the
privilege of supplying the edibles, sub
stantial as well as liquid. All the
charges are fixed by the government,
and those for rooms, etc, become part
OF the government revenue, while those
for meals, ETC., are the buffers As a
rule the accommodations are limited to
such as are requisite for a half dozen
people, and the cost of entertainment
is very moderate indeed, especially to
those travelling with English letters of
credit, which insures Ceylon money at
the ratio of about two to one. Five to
six rupees per day, or from dollar and
a quarter to a dollar and half, meets
all requirements, including the indis-
pensable tips all around.-Harper's
Weekly.

ABOUT POTATOES.

In western grange there was re-
Gently an animated discussion on the
asserted fact that there are but few
potato blossoms compared with the
number seen half a score of years ago.
Many of those that open almost i'm
mediately fall off, and in some locali-
ties such thing as a potato seed is a
rarity.
1t has been questioned whether the
potato bug is responsible for this state
of things, number of farmers argu-
ing that this insect had exercised some
deleterious effect on the plant and in
terfered with its blessing capabilities.
While it is barely possible that the pc
tato beetle may have had a certain
amount of influence in the matter, it is
unquestionably the fact that potato
blossoms are growing fewer every
year. and are liable to cease almost al
together, and that for very good and
purely scientific reasons.
1t is an axiom of nature that what
ever is not required is gradually elm
mated. Having apparently no use
whatever for seed and having no at
tention paid to it, the potato has evil
IDENTIFY become of the opinion that it is
not worth while to waste any strength
!. in producing it The entire attention
of the farmer is concentrated on the
tuber and for this reason nature is
turning all her forces toward the
roots. In many localities potato tops
are not nearly as strong and rank
growing as they formerly were The
whole trend of nature is usually in
one direction, and, failing to have
seed product appreciated in the po-
tato, she bends her energies toward
the development and increase of the
roots.
This is much more plausible and
satisfactory way to account for the
disappearance of potato-blossoms, and
is, in addition, purely scientific one.

"Oh, why arc yor waiting, children,
And why are you watching the way?"
I'VE are watching because tho folks have said
The king comes homo today,
Tho king Oh his prancing charger,
III his shining golden crown.
Oh. the bclls WEI ring. the glad birds sing
When the king comes back to town."
Kun home 10 your mothers, children.
In tho land is pain and woe,
And the king, beyond tho forest
Fights with tho Paynim foe"
Gut said the little children,
'Thc fight will soon be past
We fam would watt though tho hour be lato.
He will surely como ut last"
So tho eager children waited
Till tho cloSin. OF the day,
Till their eyes wcrc tired of gazing
Along tho dusty way
But thcro came no sound of music,
No flashing golden crown,
And tears they shed us they crcpt to bod
When the round red sun went down.
But Mt the hour of midnight,
While the weary children slept
Was heard within the city
Tho voice of them that wcpt.
Along tho moonlit highway
Toward the sacred DOME
Dead on his shield from tho we'll fought field,
Twas thus the king came home.
