VALUABLE CATCH CROPS.

Each season, almost without excep-
tion, crops can be grown on fields from
which rye and wheat were harvested.
These catch crops must necessarily be
rapid growers and carly maturers.
While 1t is not advisable to tax the
land too severely, catch crops can Of
ten be grown with profit without in
jury to the soil. Especially is this
true when the wheat crop ripens early,
or has to be plowel up after corn
planting time. The hay crop will un-
doubtodly be short this season because
of the limited acreage, aud pastures
in many localities arc not doing we'll,
for lack Of moisture. Some sort of
supplementary feed will bo badly

A Costly Challenge.

A metropolitan sculptor and marble
worker of Reval, Russia, recently
thought to enhance the attraction OF
his advertisements in local journal
by the announcement that he would
pay $1,000 to any person who could
point out flaw in the marble monu.
ments and gravestones which he had
placed in the Reval Cemetery. An en-
graver named Poloroif replied that if
the sculptor would give security for
the payment he would point out q
lumber of flaws and faults. The lat
ter said that such security was unueces-
snry as he was q man OF his word.
Polorotoff then proved his contention,
showing tho rubbishy material and
faulty work in number of monu-
ments, and in suit to gain the $1,000
won his case.

Afler Thiriecn Hundred Yenrs.

European scholars have been very
much puzzled Of late over q discovery
IN Asia Minor ofNa handsome volume
Of the four gospole, dating as far back
as the sixth century.
After lapse OF nearly 1900 years
the volume ia still in o splendid State
of preservation. Not only is tho copy
complete In every detail, but such Is
the character OF its embellishment
that o moro expensive and unique vol
umo Is not to be found in existence.
Though gorgeously bound in stout
material and rendered proof against
the destructive agencies of time, at
least for q period beyond which few
relics have survived, the volume is
still more curious perhaps in the
character of it's written contents. Tho
pages, which ore made of tho finest
quality of vellum, contain two columns
each. Tho letters are written in gold
and silver. Proper names, including
those Of saints and holy places, are
written altogether in gold, while the
rest of tho text is in silver The
precious motuls uhcu III lho pEolluo-
tion of this quaint volume are rs
bright and FREQ from tarnish rs If tho
ingenious workmanship had just been
executed.
Several yenrs must have been con-
sumed by tho patient and lGborious
penman who undertook to accomplish
this stupendous tusk. Perhaps, MS
some one has suggested, tho volume is
:. labor of love and may represent the
long and tedious years of solitude
which its author spent behind the
walls Of some old monastery.
The volume was found am ong tho
recosses of an old library in one OF
tho deserted converts of Asia Miner.
The news OF the discovery reached
Constantinople only few days ago.
The Russian Government has secured
possession of the volume and will
place it in the Russian National
Museum for safe keeping among other
rare and valuable curios.-Atlanta

KEEPING A LAWN GREEN.

When person has kept his lawn
we'll clipped, and has devoted no little
time every evening during the dry,
warm weather of summer to watering
the grass, and has not spared an abun-
dance of fertilizing material when all
these things have been attended to
and still the lawn begins to look brown
and shabby when the season is but lit
tie more than half over, it is no won
der that disappointment is felt, writes
Webb Donnell. But the fault is usual
ly with the man rather than with his
lawn. 1t is impossible to have q con-
stantly green and vigorous turf, from
early spring until late fall, unless the
turf Is composed of O succession of
grasses, SO that after the "season" of
one is past, one or more others may
be coming on to take its place. 1t is
too much to expect that zone or two
kinds of grass will grow vigorously
from spring till fall. Most grasses are
comparatively short in the time OF
their most vigorous growth. Tho
secret, then, of a handsome lawn, is to
have succession of grasses that will
cover the whole season, and this sue.
cession can be secured by seeding o
lawn with some of the lawn grass mix
lures that can be obtained of reliable
seedsmen. Experience has shown what
mixtures are best adapted for this'pur.
pose, and those who have a pride in
the appearance OF their grounds can
not afford to neglect such mixtures,
for they afford not only a succession of
green growth. but are compounded on
definite idea of associatiug such
grasses that one may DO of u nature to
assist the growth of another. Thus q
vigorous kind may furnish just tho
shade that is required to start into
vigorous growth a grass that by itself
could never have gained q foothold.
There is nothing in nature much finer
than q we'll kept bit of turf, and where
one has secured satisfactory results in
this direction he may we'll feel proud
of his success. We can hardly hope in
this country to match the beautiful
turf that is seen in English country
places, since the warm, moist climate
of England is specially suited to the
luxuriant growth of grasses; but we
can still secure quite fair success il
the matter is taken hold of rightly,
and this, am convinced, is partfcu,
larly dependent upon the use OF. intel.

THINNING GRAPE PUNCHES.

Every bud of last year will make
this year q shoot, and by the first of
June will be set with two, three or four
buds for blossoming, thus showing
how many clusters may be expected
from IL. Tho quality Of the fruit will
be greatly benefited by removing from
each bud all the shoots except tho two
that are largest. These will grow to
larger size and ripon earlier if the full
strength of the shoot is concentrated
into them. It is the multiplication of
seeds that makes grape fruiting so cx.
haustive to the vine. 1t requires an
abundance Of potash TO form the seed
and to ripen and color the fruit. When
an overloaded vine mildews Just about
the time the grapes are half grown, it
is u certain indication that potash is
deficient But even where plenty of
potash has been provided, the thin
ming of the punches should not be
neglected. Boston Cultivator.
