Fiftieth Anniversary.

Next year, 1899, James Nick's Sons will
celebrate the fiftieth Anniversary of the
establishment Oftheir flower and seed cat
alOgue. James Wick was the first man in
America to publish an illustrated seed

doubtless present a remarkable contrast
compared with the beautiful book of 100
pages presented to their patrons this
year. The present firm propose to pre-
sent to FL their patrons of 1898 a hand
some souvenir of their anniversary at the
opening of the year 1899. They offer
many bargains his season. Noticeable
is that of the Rambler roses.
Last season one of these plants sold for
fifty cents, but this year James Nick'S
Som of Rochester, n. Y, offer one each
of the white, yellow and crimson Ramb-
lers for only forty cents. Vick's Garden
and Floral Guide, an elegant work of 120
large pages, the best ever sent out by this
house. will be mailed free upon applica-
ton.

TO SCRATCH YOUR TICKET.
Instructions to Voters Which May

that requires only one cross opposite
the party name a, the head Of the ticket.
But IL a voter wants to scratch his ticket
he must use some care or he will cast only
half a vote, instead OF a whole vote. For
instance, on supreme court justice, where
two men are TO be elected. Suppose
Democrat or Populst wishes to vote the
straight fusion ticket. except that he
wants TO vote for Judge Anders. Ordinar-
lily he would put cross at the head OF
the ticket and then another cross oDpO.
site the name Of Anders. But this would
not accomplish his purpose. unless he
marked zone o. the other three candidates
for Supreme Judge also. because unless he
does this. there is no way OF knowing
which one ne wants 10 vote for, and he
could only he counted for one Of them.
Each voter II. Of course. entitled 10 vote
for TWO candidates for supreme Judge, ana
unless he IL going to vote the straight
ticket, tt is necessary to cross each candi-
date of his choice. This applies 10 con-
gressmen and legislative candidates a.

parties ought to 10 II that voters are
