The Winningstadt is an especially
desirable variety on light soils and
forms compact, hard head that is ex-
cellent for shipping long distances, says
the Denver Field and Farm. Some
strains of this seed are as early as the
Henderson. Fotlers Improved Bruins
wick is a very excellent variety to come
in after the Henderson and forms large
firm heads. If Wakefield, Henderson
and Fotler's Improved Brunswick are
sowed at the same time, they will come
into marketable condition in the order
named, and one will succeed the other
very closely. A very good variety for
late use is Fotler's Improved Bruins
wick, which natures fine large head
and is very certain to head. Winning
stadt in light soils is the most certain
to form heads, but ON good land some
larger heading variety is better.

Kale or German Creams.

We have had number of messes Of
kale green's, the young sprouts (this
years growth) cut off the plants of
kale or German green's that were raised
from seed last summer and wintered
over in the field. The plants are quite
hardy, and usually come through the
winter all right. Just as soon as the
ground thaws out in spring new growth
begins, and these sprouts are very ten
der and fine.
We sow seed in July right where we
want the plant to grow and remain dur
ing the winter, exactly in the same way
as we raise most of our late cabbage,
making the rows three feet apart, but
leaving the plants little closer in the
rows than late cabbages are usually
planted. When the plants have some
size, leave but one in place and Guilt

1t happened in the spring of 1860
when Garibaldi was pursuing his expo

Constitution and Liberty" were on ev,

the answer, because think we shall

THE ROSES OF SEATTLE.

o roses of Seattle,
That bloom in June and May,
You are perfect as the poets dream,
Fair as the golden day;
You scatter waves of fragrance
On the sleeping air of night
Your rainbow painted petals
Are the glory of the light
Fair is Niles storied lotus
And the rose of Gulistan,
And pleasant is the poppy seed
That lulls the soul of man,
Rare are the lights and shadows
In the pansy's purple eyes.
But the roses of Seattle
Are the flowers of paradise.
o roses of Seattle,
That bloom in May and June,
Deep hearts of gold and crimson
That light the summer noon,
The cottage of the lowly
You paint with Gods own plan;
In the mansion of the lordly
You shame the art of mani
1hold them fast in memory
Wherever l may roam,
These blossoms from the garden
OF the gods, dropped down from home
The cruel years take from us
What years cannot restore,
But the roses of Seattle
They bloom forevermorel

Mustard For Garnishinr.

Few people realize what treasure
the Giant Southern Curled mustard is
for garnishing when we'll grown. On
rich soil where moisture is plenty the
leaves grow to great size and are beau
tifully crimped and ruffled along the
edges One large leaf torn in two length
wise will often be sufficient for an or
binary sized platter of cold meat, as
only one layer of leaves can be used on
account of the edges being so full and
wide Many people like it as sort of
relish to the meat, and if young, tender
leaves are selected they are very tasty.
1t grows readily from seed, sowing
itself, so that when once planted it con-
tinues to come up year after year. 1t
does not kill easily with frost and can
often be found in good condition for use
as late as November. Wick s Magazine.

knife to cut off lRrge shoots, which must
have robbed the plants of much useful
vitality, which might, with a little
care, have been concentrated and put to
better use. We also too often see tolna-
toes allowed to run in a haphazard
manner over the trellises, few shoots
being tied in here and there and others
cut out with no regulation or system
But system always pays, and in these
1t will result not only in larger and
much better fruit, but will also consid-
erably increase the yield Our system is
to take up three shoots from the bottom
Of each plant, tying them up one foot
apart 1.-THE plants are set three feet apart
and keeping all side shoots pinched off
as they appear.
Lima beans, though taking care of
themselves once they get hold on the
poles, should have little assistance at
first, one or two ties being all that is
required. Too many plants should not
be left around each pole, as they only
crowd one another and result in great
many poorly filed pods. Three plants
to a pole is as general rule quite suffi-
oient, but it is well to make sure that
they are pretty well established before
thinning out to that number.
AS early crops such as peas, spinach,
lettuce, etc., are cleared off the ground
should be titled up and again utilized
with paintings of bush beans, celery,
beets, lettuce or whatever is most
wanted.
American Gardening is the source Of
the foregoing directions, and it also ad-
vises to keep an outlook for bugs of all
kinds and destroy them as quickly as
possible. Paris green is the most effec-
tual remedy where it can be used with
safety. The asparagus beetle can quick
ly be destroyed with this, but it must
never be applied until after cutting is
discontinued. The striped and spotted
beetles which attack melons and cucum-
bers may be kept In check by the lib
eral application of tobacco powder,
which should be we'll applied under the
plants, as it is on the underside of the
leaf that the pests usually harbor.

Hints For Handling Comb Honey

A clever suggestion originates with 6
correspondent of the Canadian Bee Jour.
nal; In every crate of honey to be ship
ped put slip 8 by inches, printed al
follows:
Comb honey; how to handle it,
You must not drop it. Hold it only by
the wood, and when removing it from
the crate, or at any other time, do not
break the delicate cappings covering the
cells, otherwise the honey will run out.
Where to keep it-in warm, dry room.
No place too warm in which a person
can live. Never put it in the cellar, as
honey will draw dampness and cause
the cappings to break and the honey to
leak -

TRAINING A WARHORsE.
How He Is Taught to Stand the Blaze
and Thunder of Battle.

and Thunder of Battle.
A warhorse is broken to be steady
under fire by tying ropes to his legs.
While the animal is down on the ground
the officer takes pistol and fires it
close to his ear Then i'll rapid order he
fires the weapon over his back, under
his neck, between his legs, anywhere
that an opening presents itself during
the horses futile struggles. Not until
he sinks back exhausted, all a-tremble
and showing the whites of his eyes, does
the pistol practice cease.
After two or three lessons of this kind
it is considered safe to mount him with
bride furnished with a curb bit Up
to this time the horse has never felt a
curb The light snaffle is still retained,
and the curb bride is only given gen
tie pressure at first, just enough to let
him know that it is there. Gradually
the strength of the pull is increased,
and with this safeguard the horse is
taught to stand fire from his riders pis-
toll or carbine
In carbine practice the horse must be
thoroughly broken, as both hands are
required in using this weapon, whereas
with the pistol the rider may retain the
bride with one hand.
Then comes saber practice, and that
is another trial to the horse. Again is
he thrown to the ground, and he proba-
bly, can't understand why he should
have to suffer this indignity all over
again, for he has learned that lesson
very we'll. But when the bright blade
of the saber. with quick thrusts flash
ing before his eyes and cutting the air
in close proximity to his ears appears
to him he is again terror stricken.
But the lesson he has learned from
the smell of gunpowder stands him in
good stead, and he soon gets over his
fear. And even with man on his back
and another mounted upon a seasoned
horse coming at him with saber raised
in the air or slashing left and right he
knows that it is all part Of his educa-
ton and something to be expected. So
he stands his ground or cavorts about
the other horse while the two troopers
indulge in their saber practice. New
