We are asked why it is that certain
spots in field OF corn will fire" dur
ing dry and hot time and others will
not The cause of this firing is usu-
ally found in the fact that the corn is
planted too thick, thus exhausting the
moisture from the soil. south side
hill or some spot fortified with coarse
manure will also be affected. but the
primary cause is the same in each case

1t seems like piece of foolishness to
make the statement that any person is
crazy when he attempts to beat a fast
train at railway crossing, but so
many fatalities result from just such
folly that the truth needs pounding in
to the public. 1t is a very poor way by
which to exhibit that spirit of bravado
which is SO very characteristic of the
American people.

There were 1862, 796 acres of public

the farm to give.

Bulb Growing In the House.

Bulbs can be grown IN cool rooms,
where the successful cultivation of ten
der house plants would be impossible.
They are sure to bloom and require
comparatively little care, surely an i'm
posing list of virtues.
Bulbs usually suggest tulips, hya-
cinths and Easter lilies. All these are
charming and should be in every collec-
ton, but there are other less known
bulbs that are equally deserving.
Tulips aud hyacinths should be pot
ted early, as they need from five to
eight weeks in the cellar or pit.
The Due Van Thol tulips are more
commonly forced and are charming.
The single earlies are also forced and
are larger and Shower, but somewhat
more difficult and uncertain.

orehias For cut Flowers.

The popularity of orchids gives ad-
ditional interest to a note originally
made by Meehan's Monthly: $50 many
beautiful flowers drop their petals soon
after cutting that they are out of favor
with purchasers. The efforts of fo-
rists are generally in the direction of
introducing such flowers as will hold
their own for some time after cutting.
1t is possibly one of the leading ad-
vantages of the carnation that it lasts
so long ON the parlor table; and this
is found to be true with many species
of orchids which are coming into favor
for cutting purposes, quite as much ON
account of this persistence as on &C
count Of their rarity and sweetness. In
this closely related family the cyprl-
pedium is found particularly valuable.
There are not only persistence. sweet
ness and curious features in the forms
and colors of the flowers, but they also
have the long stems which enable the
American florists to use them without
the necessity of lavishly stemming
them"

Rather curiously, farm land may be
said to be worth per acre in the corn
belt just as many dollars as it will one
year with another produce bushels of
corn per acre; thus if the land will
only grow twenty-five bushels of corn
to the acre such land is not worth over
$25, while if it will produce sixty-five,
seventy and eighty bushels per acre
such figures respectively represent in
dollars it's value per acre.

The Passing of the Bouquet.


A New York exchange says florists
of that city have one cause for regret
in the present fashions in flowers.
The bouquet has practically passed
out of use, and only at weddings is it
really the style. Women carry flowers
less than they ever did.
Even the debutante, who, next to
the bridesmaid, chung longest to the
made up bouquet, has now given it up.
The greater informality of the after
noon reception nowadays has had the
effect of diminishing the floral display
seen formerly.
1t is probable that the florists sell as
many flowers as they ever did, but the
making of bouquets threatens to be-
come lost art among them. Few
flowers are worn besides violets, and
the skill of the florist in arranging his
wares is now chiefly confined to table
decorations.

The difficulty of tanning and civiliz-

troll over them, and the general gov
eminent humors their whims. The

settled community of white farmers,
