The Best way of Planting Bulbs.

After ordering your bulbs set about
getting a compost really in which to
pot them. AS good a soil as any is one
composed of ordinary garden loan,
sands, and well-rotted cow mapure in
equal parts. 0ne-third sand may seem
like too much of n good thing, but it
isn't Nowhere in the world are bet
Ter bulbs grown than in Holland, whose
soil is nearly all sand. Better bulbs
can be grown in clear sand, properly
fortified, than in the richest of soil
without sand. Mix your compost well
and have il fine and mellow. 1t is very
important that the munure should be
old. Fresh is harmful to all
dubious plants, out or in doors j
should advise the growing of several
bulbs in the same pot-Ladies' Home

GINGERBREAD.


The secreto of making dark, "crackly'
gingerbread, shiny on top, is to bear
in mind that the shortening must be
poured boiling hot on the molasses,
and hat the mixture must be beaten
as little as possible. The flour should
be mixed in with a few deft turns of
the spoon. Pour one-half of a large
teacup of boiling hot shortening, lard
and butter mixed upon one-half pint
of New Orleans molasses, add two Ia
blespoonfuls OF milk ond one of ground
ginger, then sift in u generous half
pint of -four, to which a teaspoonful of
baking soda has been added, lastly,
on well beaten egg, then mix, with
out beating, and bake in one large tin
plate or small dripping pan. Serve
hot, and break, not cut, at the table.
Do not use baking powder as the ream
of tartar will spoil the cake, the molas-
ses neutralizes the effect of the soda
quite as effectually. If a chocolate
icing, such as is used on eauclaires is
liked, the glazed effect may be pro-
duced if this rule is strictly followed:
Crate two squares of ~unsweetened
chocolate, add a half cup of granulated
sugar, a tablespoonful of boiling wa
ter and a teaspoonful Of vanilla, boil
five minutes. While still warm, but
not hot, spread on the cake. This may
be eaten fresh, but not hot.

PRESIDENT WINSTON AND ATH
LETIC5.

We notice that President Winston Of
the University, was present with the
boys in Danyille, and took hearty in
terest in the game. The Varsity boys
all understand that the President is in
full sympathy with them in all inno-
cent pleasures and manly sports. In
his speech after the game ne gave the
keynote to college athletics as they
should be. What he said ought to be
given wide publicity. We quote:
"This team is made up Of better
scholars than any team ever sent from
the University. They stand for schol-
arship and manhood. They represent
the true athletic spirit Of the Uniyer-
sity, the spirit that says you can af-
ford to lose every game you play. but
you can't afford to lose your manhood
and self-respect."
Men Of character, intelligence and
manly spirit viii always beat profess
SIGNALS and rowdies, whether on the
battlefield or the background; for at
the critical moment they will not
warer and fail, but will rally with re
newed vigor and spirit"
These are golden words. The Presi-
dent is right. Athletics played by
scholars and gentlemen are strength
eniDg and eleyating; but played by
rowdies and blacklegs are degrading
and disgusting.
We are glad that this team has fairly
won the championship OF the South
and has beaten four Of the best teams
from large Northern Universities. We
are glad because the team does repre-
sent a very high grade Of scholarship,
intellect and character

down. and he is to add twelve millions
more in extending the system aud
putting in electricity as motive
power. This Is hut one single invest
ment of the hundreds and thousands
that Americans are making in Mexico,
Can there be better proof Of the bad
ness of our financial system than this
constant drain OF our capital aud
treasure into foreign country which
ought. under proper conditions 70
find employment in developing our own
country, especially in the South? BE
sides. the fact that one man can invest
twenty millions in one enterprise
proves how our financial system tends
to accumulate money in a few hands.
II Is not the per capita of circulation
50 much as It's distribution which
makes a country prosperous or de-
pressed. The doubling the value of our
dollar by doubling the burdens Of the
debtor class and halving the receipts
of the producers, and doubling the
weight of taxes has taken all the
money out of the hands of the masses
and put it in the hands Of the receiving
classes-the bondholders and great
corporations. The reconciliation of
silver BY restoring the former value of
our dollar, and enabling farmers, again
AS In Mexico--to receive Is cents for
cotton and SIPS for wheat and corn
will enable them after paying interest
and taxes, to have something left in
their hands out of the labor of the
year. This will restore prosperity
here and prevent all money being cen
tired IN a few hands. This fact is what
has kept Mexico so prosperous. When
the same condition of things is re-
stored here, we will not see $20.0J0,000
from this country invested in one en-
terprise in Mexico, The constant OUT
flow of capital to that country will
slacken up and profitable enterprises
can be opened up in the United States,
and especially in the South. The
steady appreciation Of the dollar no"
makes it pay a man better TO hold his
money invested in United States bonds
at 8 per cent. interest. Hence the
pressure that forced the late Issue Of
1862 100000 OF bonds in a time of pro-
found peace, and which would be
forcing a further issue right now, but
that the great tax-paying public
showed its teeth in such a manner that
it frightened the bondholding class to
hold mp for a while.
