a dip net and turkey call, with

to have them registered with the
city recorder, and were to receive
a copper tag Of Identification to be
fastened to the starboard scratch her

By this means, the turnkey
could discover from whence they

The AmaryIlis

From Farmers Review: OF all
dubious plants adapted to window
culture, we have nothing more beauti-
ful than the Amaryllis. when it Is
properly grown. But as ordinarily
grown it is generally a failure. We
come across plants very frequently
many years old, which the owners tell
US have never blossomed They grow
but that is all. The reason of failure
20 grow this plant well comes from
lack of knowledge of it's peculiar hab-
its and requirements. Unlike most
plants adapted to window culture, it
has very distinct periods of growth
and rest. 1t will send up several
leaves, and when these have fully de-
veloped 1t will cease to grow, and be
at a standstill for perhaps three
months Then all at once it will have
another period of growth, followed in
due season by a dormant spell. 1t is
pretty generally understood by anna
teur florists nowadays that most plants
require more or less rest, but among
them all we have none So insistent on
positive rest as this plant. Compare
tive rest will not satisfy it. Now, this
Is just what it generally gets. Most
cultfvators of it keep giving 1t more
or less water between it's periods of
growth. thus preventing it from MAX
ing its dormant period as complete In
character as it ought to be, and this
interference with the requirements of
the plant exerts depressing effect on
Its vitality, which is sufficient to pre-
vent 1T from Towering. In order to
secure flowers from 1t, we must feed
and water it well while growing. En-
courage 1T to make the most complete
possible at such periods,
but as soon as growth ceases withhold
water until the soil becomes quite dry
and keep 1t in that condition until I
there are signs of renewed growth.
As soon as these appear apply water
and begin the use of good fertilizer,

but increasing its strength as growth |
develops. This is important, as the |

The New HONyIOCk

From Farmers Review: It has not
seemed, for some years past, as If it
were possible to improve much on the
double hollyhocks which florists have
succeeded in developing from the old
fashioned single kinds. But an i'm
provement has been made, and last
season the new claimant for popular
favor was put on the general market
for the first time. A few plants had
been sent out to a good many garden
ers for trial. before the strain was Of
fered for sale. and the reports of these
trials are all unanimous, and are very
fattering to the plant under consider
alton.
The new hollyhock is called the Al
legheny. Its flowers are of good size,
often measuring nix inches across
They are double, but their doubleness
is quite different from that of the ordi-
nary double hollyhoek, which is rather
prim and formal. The petals are all
of about the same length. and are ar
ranged so loosely that the resuls is a
sort of fuffiness which makes the
flower graceful more after the fashion
of rose than the hollyhock as here
tofore grown. The petals have a sort
of ruf1ed, OF crimped effect, which
gives the entire flower an airiness
never before seen in this class of
plants The peculiarly graceful effect
of makeup is enhanced by the color
ing, which is light at the edge of the
petal, deepening toward the center of
the flower. The colors, SO far, range
through the various shades OF red and
pink, and pure white. Other colors
will doubtless follow in due time.
This variety is of a more continuous
blooming habit than the older kinds
My plants were still in full bloom
when heavy frosts came, and all the
branches were well set with buds in
various stages of development Those
who are fond OF hollyhocks, and want
the best, should procure a few plants
of this variety. this spring Such
plants will bloom this season. do

were read aloud in turn, each heart be-
