The ground intended for cabbages
should be we'll prepared, and enriched,
else the cabbage will not form sound

planted, the ground should be marked
off in checks three feet apart. The
plants are set at the crossings with a

one to do the work expeditiously, but
care must be taken to press the soil
firmly about the roots, and then mulch
them slightly with loose earth. Fre-

try store. One of them bought anu drank
four glasses OF "harmiess cider" They then
went to country church. disturbed the con-
gregation, who were holding a social, aud,
starting home, overlook others.
The boy, only nineteen years old, who
had drank the cider, began quarrel with
another young man, and before the others
realized what was taking place, had killed
him; and he was the son OF a widow. The
boy, only nineteen years old, was sentenced
60 the penitentiary for twenty years. So two
homes are made desolate by four glasses OF
cider.

form of her boy, can be estimated can we
know the cost of four glasses Of cider
