Intercropping In Small Gardens.

Where garden areas are limited, as
is the case in towns and their vicini
ties, American Gardening suggests that
intercropping can be practiced with ad
vantage by amateurs and others. Seeds
Of radishes, spinach, lettuce and onion
sets that are intended for use in half
grown state may be planted between
such crops as peas. Celery transplanted
between rows of corn will be benefited
by the shade afforded for time. OF
course this FAUST be done judiciously by
leaving room for the proper care and
cultivation Of the crops first planted
Then, again. seeds may be sown between
rows Of beets. beans cabbage, etc, that
are partly ussd up, and by the time they
are cleared away altogether the young
plants will be up and ready to take
their place.

For extraordinary, incredible. da-
bolical wickedness the name of Rosas
has become proverb in South Ameri-
ca. 1t is barely 20 years since he
died; yet when the people of the River
Platte speak of him, we seem to be
hearing of some half-mad Ethiopian
Sultan or hero of the Arabian
Nights; a creature of other clay than
ordinary men; Il being, half devilish,
half divine, slavishly worshiped by all,
capricious, vindictive, ruthless, slay
ing in the dark by some mysterious
power his enemies, his refractory
slaves and even those who dreaded
and hated in silence; not to be caught
unawares; proof against plots, free
from ordinary human intirmities;
knowing neither fatigue nor fear;
violent. too, and fantastic. striking
astonishment and kind of supersti-
tious dread by his mad freaks, his
dangerous banter, and his fits of saw
age generosity or cruelty.
Such is the Rosas of popular tradi-
ton; nor does the picture so drawn
seem exaggerated in the light of auth
entic records. But RoSas was more
than this; he it was who gave the first
real, solid government to n young
nation which numbers to-day 100000
souls. and has the largest city of the
southern hemisphere for its capital.
He practically secured internal peace
with brief interruptions-to country
torn by incessant revolution and civil
war. He was the creator of the
Argentine Confederation-by force,
perhaps; but force was the order of
the day: and he arose from among a
crowd of caudillos party chiefs, half
soldiers, half -brigands, mostly as des-
potic in spirit as regardless of law
and restraint, as cOntemptuous of hu-
man life as l.osas himself. To him
more than to anyone it is due that
Argentine is one country instead of
containing half IA dozen rival and dis
cordant republics.
