The experiments In regard 10 the

plants have been carried on for sever

investigations have now been again

magnificent, their height averaging six

Keeping Apples without Cellar.

An Illinois correspondent of the
Practical Farmer tells of n good
scheme for wintcring apples which
would benefit those who are not so for
tunate as to have a cellar or dislike to
winter apples that have been kept in
cellars. The plan is as follows:
Put your apples into barrels, cover
the top with a grain sack or other
heavy material. drive a hoop down
over ii. and nail in several places 10
hold it firm. Select n dry location in
which to bury them. Dig a trench
north and south some two feet wide
and four inches deep; fill this with
straw and roll your barrels into it,
placing the bottom of the second bar
rel against the head OF the first and so
on until all the barrels are in place.
Then cover well with straw and last
with earth to the depth of ten or
twelve inches. Apples kept in this
way are solid and are much cleaner
and easier TO get at than apples buried
in the old way. When n barrel is re-
moved and earth and straw thrown
back against the next barrel there is
no danger of the remainder being
more susceptible to frost, as is often
the case when large hill Of apples is
opened.

by reference to the notice Of State

Constitution are to be submitted to the

cities Of Columbia, Rock Hill, Charles

bonded debt beyond tie limitation now
set In the Constitution for municipal
interpretations. This debt can be in
creased under the proposed amendment
only for special purposes. This will
affect only the taxpayers of these cit
les, and If permission Is given, tho
question must be submitted to the free
holders of these interpretations before
1t can be increased. The other amend
