just about the size of a quart cup. In fact, some small growers use cup of this kind to shape the punches and some use homemade wooden bunchers.
 The shoots should be assorted. the larger and smaller ones being put in separate punches. The latter are just as good for eating, but do not usually sell so we'll. The punches are tied with raf- fla or soft string. The tops of the bunch es are made even, and then the butts cut off square with the knife. The punches are a little smaller at the tops than at the butts. This enables growers to pack them so the tips will be pro- tected.
 The first cut shows crate containing two dozen lunches in two layers. The box is n little wider than the length of two punches, and these are packed in, tips and butts alternating. With the butts against the outside of the box the tips are kept from touching each other or the box and are thus protected from bruising. The box is of just the right size so that the punches fit in tight and cannot shake around. No packing ma terial is used for nearby market.
 The second cut shows q southern crate holding two dozen punches, but the lat ter stand on end. The crate is a little narrower at the top than at the bottom These punches stand on damp moss or other packing material, which keeps them fresh during their long journey.

PROFITABLE ASPARAGUS.

 Asparagus is generally considered a profitable crop. It is now grown so ex- tensively that special tools are used in its culture, and large growers in differ ent parts of the country have their fa-

 vorite and various methods of proce- dure. From an account by The Rural New Yorker of present practices in growing and marketing this vegetable the following information is gleaned, together with the illustrations: For the production of the white shoots so popular from the Oyster Bay (N. Y.) district deep planting is required. Some growers use for making the furrows special blow that makes furrow about IS inches deep. Some growers, especial ly on heavy land. make them 12 inches deep. The trenches are made from 1a to 4Ie or 5 feet apart. Each grower has his own ideas about depth, distances apart, fertilizers, etc.
 Some growers prefer 1-year-old roots and some 2-year-old. Whichever are used they should be strong and visor- GUS. The plants are put in the bottom of the trench l5 to Is inches apart and partially covered with soil. The trench es are filled gradually as the plants grow by frequent cultivations which keep the ground clean. Some growers use stable manure and consider it best, while others prefer commercial fertili- gers, and still others are governed by circumstances as to their choice. Some apply fertilizers always in the spring, while others fertiliZe the old beds im- mediately after the cutting season each year, claiming that this gives the plants a good, strong growth and fits them for sending up numerous large shoots the next season. The ordinary tillage tools are used for keeping the beds clean, though some large growers have special tools. The old tops are removed each spring, the surface thoroughly worked up and left in ridges over the rows. In fighting the new asparagus rust the New Jersey station recommends remov- ing and burning the tops in the fall.
 The most popular variety has always been the Conover's Colossal, though Barr's Mammoth is grown by some, and more recent additions have been Pal metto, Columbian White and others. At the New Jersey experiment station Palmetto was the least affected by the new and destructive asparagus rust of all the varieties tested.
 Cutting begins as suon as the shoots begin to show nicely above the surface. It is done by means of a special knife, requires great care and is hard work. Careless work would destroy many of the buds that are just starting. Tho beds are usually cut over every day. The shoots are put into punches weigh ing about three pounds each by means of some of the numerous punching ma chimes now on the market. The punches are about six to nine inches long and

Refuse Not.

Oh, ye who have been washed in the blood of Christ, ye who have been loos- ed from the hyssop branch, start heav- onward. It may be to some of you a long flight. Temptations may dispute your way, storms of bereavement and trouble may strike your soul, but God will see you through. Build not on the earth. Set your affections on things in heaven, not on things on earth. This is perishing world Its flowers fade. It's fountains dry up. Its promises cheat
 Set your affections upon Christ and heaven. I rejoice, my dear brethren and sisters in Christ, that the flight will after awhile be ended. Not always beat ell of the storm. Not always going on weary wings. There is 8 warm dovecot of eternal rest where we shall find a place of comfort, to the everlasting joy of our souls. Oh, they are going up all the time-going up from this church. going up from all the families and from all the churches of the land-the weary doves seeking rest i'll a dovecot Oh, that in that good land we may all meet when our trials are overl We cannot get into the glorious presence of our de- parted ones unless we have been cleans ed in the same blood that washed their sins away. I know this is true of all who have gone in, that they were plunged ill the blood, that they were unloosed from the hyssop branch. Then they went singing into glory. See that ye refuse not him that speaketh, for if they escaped not who refuse him that spake on earth how much more shall not we escape if we turn away from him that speaketh from heaven?

Deep Eyed Sweet Potatoes,

In selecting varieties of potatoes to plant, especially those whose reputa- tion is not established, American Culti- vator advises care in avoiding those marked with deep eyes. Nearly all po- tatoes have to be pared before being cooked, and the deep eye is almost all ways cut out without making hole in the potato. This is the more wasteful because the part of the potato which is thrown away with the peeling is more nutritious than that which grows near tho center Of the potato.
