A DINNER OF POSIES.
Buds and Blossoms That Are Used q
Articles of Diet.

Buds and Blossoms That Are Used as
Articles of Diet.
The buds and flowers of a very largo
! number of plants are used as articles
of food. Just how many OF these are
80 used we rarely stop TO consider, I'M
less our attention is particularly called
to the subject. Many persons have
! eaten salads of nasturtium flowers
| and leaves; a few have cultivated a
taste for a salad of chrysanthemum
flowers.
There are all over the world. trees
shrubs and plants that furnish nu-
;tritious and agreeable food in their
blossoms. One of the most impor-
tant of these grows in India. The tree
is the mahwa, and it's blossoms are an
extremely valuable article of food for
the natives. These blossoms are large
and abundant, and have sweet, some
what sictly odor and taste, and fall
during the night. In the morning they
are gathered as soon as daylight ap-
pears, and may be eaten raw or dried
in the sun. The natives store them al
staple article of food, and so largely
do they depend upon these trees that
when the outlying tribes become in
subordinate there is no punishment or
command that will so quickly subdue
them as the threat of cutting down
these trees
From the flowers of the mahwa
strong spirit is distilled, and this. Is
used in large quantities by the natives.
There are ways of cooking these dried
flowers, although they are frequently
eaten in the natural state. They are
also added to grains and other foods,
and dainties and sweetmeats are mace
of them. Four hundred pounds Of
flowers are often gathered from one
tree, and. as they are one of the leading
articles of diet, their Importance can
readily be seen. Another species of
the same tree grows malabar. TheSe
flowers and buds are eaten raw or may
be dried and roasted. Sometimes they
are made into jellies or rolled into balls,
and in this state form an article of
barter, being exchanged for goods and
edibles of all sorts.
z
made into salads and cooked in various
ways. The flower buds are sometimes
used as pickles. The French Canadians
use the flowers of the red bud for sad
ads and pickles. There is a variesy of
hbutilon, the flowers Of which are used
in Brazil as a vegetable. Pepper, cloves
and cassia are flower buds, and there
are buds and berries of many other
trees that enter largely in the prepare
ton of oriental delicacies. The cauh-
flower, as we eat it, is nothing more
nor less than an undeveloped flower,
and there is a plant in China that bears
a 1ower-stalk and bud which is greatly |
liked, and is said to resemble a very |
rich, ripe pear. These are but few of |
the bountiful provisions of nature, and
they are usually to be found in trop-
ical countries and in localities where |
the natives depend largely on the vege-
tation for their satisfactorily. Y.

ideal pasturage, left solely to the har-
vesting of wild bees and various species

A typical western apiary belongs to
the fOot-hill region of southern Califor-
MIA. Here the atmosphere has that de-
gree of heat and dryness essential To
an abundant saccharine flow, and the
high grayelly soil grows luxuriance
of notwithstanding plants, the chief OF
which are the numerous varieties of
sage. During the blossoming of these
aromatic spikes the amount of honey
stored by strong colonies is almost in
credible. A summers product will
often average rs to 200 pounds hive,
and instances are not uncommon where
q single Italian swarm has produced
1000 pounds of extracted honey in
one year. This sage honey has rare
virtues, and is said to be more defect
able than the famed nectar of Hymet-
tus or Chamouni, and whittier and finer
favored than the celebrated honey

Despite the many denials set fol

Despite the many d~enials set forth
by the Pettigrew journals of the
statements frequently made that
Senator Pettigrew is seeking to head
and control the delegation to the
national convention, there is little
doubt that overtures have been made
leading to that end. 1t may be that,
recognizing the futility of the effort,
negotiations have ended and the
Pickerel statesman has laid down,
but he isn't built that way, and the
protests of his friends that such
statements are false look suspicious
to say the least.
