Growing Celery for Market.

Any person who grows celery can
easily produce large and white stalks,
but the main point is to have them
crisp. Good celery should break into
two or three pieces when bent, and
should be very brittle. The way to
secure the brittleness is to begin
blanching the stalks from the start,
and also grow them rapidly. II the
blanching is done later in the season,
as is usually the case, the stalks viii
be white and attractive, but will not
be as brittle as when the blanching il
done gradually during the whole sea-
son.

turier, who also brought the extremely
full skirts into vogue, now uses only
the four and one-half and five-yard

has also given up all use of curvalette

MAKING DRY WALKS,
A simple System OF Draining Produces
the Desired Result.

the Desired Result
The accompanying sketch shows the
proper way of making a dry walk
about ones premises The darker
shading shows where a trench has
been dug, al the bottom of which is
laid a line of tile. The earth is then
shoveled back into the trench, after
the joints of the tile have been care
fully covered with hay to prevent the
loose earth from getting into the
joints before it has become firmly
packed together, some eighteen inches
at the top being left open. A foot of
cobble or broken stones is then placed
upon the earth and well packed down;
over this is spread six inches of gravel,
slightly rounded from side to side.
The gravel and the rocks beneath
cause all water falling upon the sur
face to at once disappear, while very

made with a long slender bodice fitted
as closely as a jersey, reaching well
over the hips and fastened up the back.
This bodice is deliberately trimmed,
and sleeves of great size are added.
The skirt portion is either killed or
shirred to the lower edge of the bodice,
and has merely a very wide hem at the
bottom. Toilets of ecru batiste are
made with a yoke waist likewise fast
ened to the back, as are many of the
bodices of the season designed for both
day and evening wear. The bastie tbs
trimmed either with broad black vel
vet ribbon Overlaid with slightly mar
rover bands of ecru lace insertion, or
with insertion and frills of lace alone.
AS the season advances the taste
seems to increase for Norfolk and

MINT CULTURE.
An Important Industry Confined to a
Limited Area.

Limited Area.
Though the peppermint crop of this
country has a very small acreage COM
pared with many other crops, yet it is
of considerable Importance in some
sections of the country. The crop was
first introduced into New York from
Massachusetts aoout 1910, and fifteen
years later into Michigan. Wayne
county, n. Y, is the largest center of
peppermint growing, but large quanti-
ties are also raised in southern Michi-
gan and northern Indiana. The Wayne
county product commands a higher
price than any other kind of pepper
mint oil.
The cultivation of peppermint is SIM
pie, but a great deal of labor is re-
quired to keep the fields free from
weeds. The propagation is by roots
which are dug and planted in drills as
close together as is possible, allowing
room for cultivation. Weeds are the
great enemy and must be fought con-
stantly. There is one in particular
peppermint fields, is a continual e
ace to the purity of the oil product. 1t
is termed rag weed, but it is totally
unlike the weed commonly so called.
The oil yield varies from ten to thirty
pounds an acre. T~wo-thirds of that
produced is exported. Peppermint
growing is a crop that requires skill
and experience, and the necessary ap-
paratus for distilling is expensive, so
that it would not pay any individual
to go into the business unless on a
large scale.-N. Y. World.
