The Chorus club concert and ball at
the opera house last evening were both
highly successful and pleasing occasions.
The Chorus club showed the superior
results of long and efficient training and
the Nordraak gave some of it's best &C.

cheetra was highly appreciated both
during the concert and the ball. About
fifty couples attended the latter, and
financially the two affairs came out

Bush Lima Beans.

turist says: Henderson's, which is the
Dwarf Sieva, is always prolific, but the
beans are small and deficient in that deli.
cacy of flavor that is conspicuous in the
regular limas. But for a wet season it
is better, as it does not mildew as the
larger kinds are apt to do. Burpee's
dwarf lima, which is a true large lima
in every respect, excepting its dwarf
habit, behaved wonderfully, the drought
and heat having been to it's liking. The
plants branohed out widely and kept up
a continuous crop. With me in rainy
seasons the beans have mildewed badly,
as the running sorts always do, near the
ground. To be successful with this sort
it must have plenty Of root The rows
should be three feet apart, and the plants
at least foot apart in the rows. This
will afford plenty of air, and in a meas
ure prevent mildew. The Kumerle or
Dreer's lima, which is dwarf potato
lima, has dono remarkably we'll. al
though prefer the flavor of the largo
sort For general purposes this is the
most profitable because it is the most
prolific.

A st. Valentine FrolIc.

Saint Valentine, who for so many
years has been presiding over 4
very cold shrine, is about to be
brought back heartily into fashion
this month, and sniff the sweet sa-
vor of maidens' prayers and sacri-
fees on his altar. There are to be
dances in his honor, and rites OBJ
served appropriate to the day. Red
roses are to be worn by enthusi-
nstic girls for the full twenty. four
hours over which he has dominion,
and those who confidently expect
the kind saint to give them a
glimpse of their future husbands
must follow these curious processes:
They must HE them to bed one
hour before midnight, carrying Il
taper only, as light, and, never
casting glance to left or right, hut
looking straight before, put out the
taper on entering their bedrooms.
On the threshold they must unbind
their hair, wash their hands in rose
water, and standing before a mir
ror slowly eat a crisp seed cake In
the shape of heart. This done,
all in the dark and making sure
never to retrace a step, they get to
bed and to sleep, with all dispatch; j;
for If they can dream before mid.
night, the vision will present the
form and features of the future hus.
band. There are cotillions set for
st. Valentines Eve, when all the
favors will he emblems suitable To

The popularity of buff plumage IL

outh Rock. This popularity is in itself
something remarkable. For years and
years the Buff Cochin had the honor of
being the sole representative of this COL

which was but diamond edition of the
Bun Cochin. This was followed BIZ the
Bum Leghorn and the Argonaut, and
then appeared simultaneously the Buff
Wyandotte and Buff Plymouth Rock. In
some cases these two varieties were bred
from the Same yard Of fowls, those with
rose combs being called Wyandottes and
those with single combs Plymouth
Rocks.

fowl Of great practical value and Of re-

A Pertinent Question.

A Long Island correspondent thinks
he has solved the wheat problem. He
cut 1t when in blossom before the ker.
nels formed. 1t was success. Cows
and horses preferred it to clover hay.
Rural New Yorker, commenting on the
foregoing, asks:
Did it ever occur to you that the total
feeding value in the dry straw and hard
grain from an acre Of wheat might bs
less than that in the same crop when
out early and cured as hay9 There GER
tainly cannot be any'less, and we believe
the cow will find more actually digesti.

and the cost will be trifling.
But the main point is that nearly all
the cultivation in the garden ought to
be done BY horsepower and as little as
possible by hand. Lay off small plat
to be used for close planted crops and
tend them with some kind of wheel hoe.
But plant the main crops wide enough
to be cultivated with the horse hoe. And
let the plat Of ground devoted to garden
vegetables be liberal Thus home gar

than an irksome task. The health of the
family will be the better for the supply
