WATER CREss IN GERMANY.
Fifty Thousand lunches Sold Tor
Snug Little Fortune.
Meehan's NIonthly.)


An interesting translation of an article
on water cress from the German Pracu-
cal Gardener, by Mrs Wilhelmine Seliger'
appears in the Hartford Daily Times
Erfurt is not only famous for seed-grow-
ing the world over, but has a territory IN
which market gardening is permanent
1t is known as the "Dreinbrunnen' dis
tricts. Deep bitches or canals are carried
over the territory through which cool
water fows-and the narrow beds De-
tween the bitches are where the vege-
tables grow. The streams grow the water
crosses. Fifty thousand punches nave
been sold from this one tract in one sea-
son. bringing in 5000 OF our money-a
little fortune in Germany. The water
cress business was started in 1868 by one
Hans Hartzau. who rented the ground
for a small sum- Two brothers, named
Matthew and Simon Engelhardt, took
up the start made. and in 1927 ran the
network Of bitches over the land.
Old plants produce too hot and tooth
less an article, as all know who have
had water cress in an American restau-
rant. In these Erfurt streams the plants
are torn out twice a year, and new
plantations made from the young tips.
The bottom Of the shallow streams are
heavily MANFRED, the tips planted, and
the plants kept down by boards till the
roots have taken hold. OF course, pro-
vision for keeping down the boards has
20 be made This boarding process Is one
OF the essentials OF culture. The crisp
Juicy product would not be secured with
out it, 1t bears the same relation to good
water cress as blanching does TO good
celery With the tough, peppery stun on
American tables, il is no wonder water
cross Is not nOnular.

A Clever Trick.



An ex-Colector Of Customs relates this
as among his experiences: Some years
ago, and shortly prior to the holidays,
man came into the Office and said that
he wanted to talk with me personally.
He looked like an unsophisticated fellow
who had come in from the country to try
his hand at business, though he had
sharp features and q nasal twang.
Mister he began when we were
alone, I'm in a kind Of a snarl, and I've
come TO you because 1 want 10 do the

ney cigars shipped 10 Windsor thinlin' L

troit fur the Chris mas trade. / had II

on, but he, not KNOWN nothin' about the
law, packs them cigars In boat and
brings 'em over here without payin no

honest as the sun, and | hurried right

Here's sample OF them cigars as he
held out box. and l want 20 say right
here that | never had a more delicious
smoke. He took me 20 the little room he
had rented and showed me hundreds OF
boxes on which he paid the duty, and |
let the matter drop, II got into the pa
pers. even 10 my verdict as 20 the quality
of the cigars.
"Then my honest Yankee made a special
Christmas sale, patronized chiefly by
women, who DID not care so much about
price as they did about tho credit for hay
ing once selected good goods. He was
closed out in no time. and disappeared.
There was a rank odor in the local atmos
