In my opinion, the reason Tor cafna'
tons not keeping after they have
passed through the commission houses
and stores arises from the variety or
improper treatment which they re
ceive. | have many times seen deai'
ers take carnations from the box as
they arrive and plunge the stems i'm
mediately into ice-cold water, ana sci
the flowers into a cold ice box !
think that this alternate chilling ana
heating the flowers, such as piungins
the stems in ice water and chilling the
flowers. and then placing them In
highly heated rooms Is the reason Tor
the premature whitening away OF the
carnation flower.
The treatment that l would recon-
mend in order to keep carnations as
long as possible is to plunge the stems
in water that it feels just slightly
warm to the hand. Then place the
vase of flowers in a room not colder
than forty-ive to fifty degrees Fan
renheit, and allow the flowers and
water 10 COOl uUWH WIN Inv iDNAH'

By the indirect fertilizer is meant a
substance like lime, salt or lane plas-
ter which Is applied to the land not for
the purpose of furnishing food TO the
plant directly. but for the purpose of
releasing and making available some
elements of the soil present in a rather
unavailable form. These indirect fer
tilizers add nothing to the soil. and are
to be considered in the same light as
the slip of paper which we call a bank
check which W. use as a means OF
withdrawing funds from the bank.
Under certain circumstances it may
be right and proper to use indirect fer
t~ilizers, but the fact should be kept in
view that they are only a means or
using up the plant food more rapidly.
and that IL we expect to derive any
permanent benefit from them they
must be used in connection with the
system of fertilization where plant
foods are continually added to the soil.

Use of Pumpkins.

Pumpkins are a valuable food for
animals. They have been used for
many generations in America. They
serve as an appetizer and often aid
In fattening beef or hogs. In New
England it is the practice to boil the
pumpkins and mix more or less of
bran and cornnleal with them in feed
ing.
But the pumpkin can be fed with
safety and advantage without cooking.
A writer in the Epitomist says that a
hog will fill itself on pumpkins and
in an hour eat as much corn as 1t
would if it had not had the pumpkins.
In the first place every animal on the
farm is / in need of some %succulent food,
and the fattening animal is no exeep-
ton. The pumpkin is the cheapest
food of this character that can be ted
when there is no grass. In the second
place the pumpkin seems to act as an
appetizer, and in the third place II
adds to the weight of the hog. 1t Is
largely water, but there is sufficiently
dry material in 1t to make 1t worth
feeding outside the feature of succu-
lency.
"In feeding pumpkins to cattle they
must be fed with more care than Is
necessary i'll feeding them to swine
for they satisfy the appetite OF cattle
and they will refuse corn until after
the pumpkins are partially disposed of.
In feeding pumpkins to swine Of curse
they must be broken or cut up, and
the better way to cut them up Is to
use a corn knife or an axe. Feed
what the hogs will eat up clean, give
them a little rest and then feed The
corn. The practice with us is to feed
morning and night"
