packers buy country butter for packing

One. firm, of packers that handled no

ABOUT ORCHIDS
Not Necessary to Go Further for
:. Them Than the Nearest Woods.

Not Necessary to Co Further for
f.. Them Than the Nearest Woods.
Rosalind Richards In June ST. Nicholas.
Ones first idea Of orchids is apt to be Of
brilliant, fantisticz flowers-solme of them
so strange in shape as scorcely to seem
flowers at all-blossoming in tropical for
ests or under glass in green houses. We
go to see "crchid shows" %at horticultural
exhibitions, and often: foget that there is
an orchid show, even in our very north
ern woods, ready and waiting for US every
spring. All of our native orchids are
beautiful, some Of them are wonderfully
and delicately so; but we have only few
that are as large or as brilliant in color
as those Of warmer countries, and of
these the "lady's slippers or moccasin
flowers, are the most striking. We have
several Of this family, the splendid Cypri-
pedium spectabile, purple, pink and white,
in all; hut, through New England, at
least, the best known is the pink, or
stemless. lady's-slipper (Cypripedeum
acaule, orchid family.)
It would be hard to find anything pleas
anter than hunting for lady s slippers on a
bright June day. Like most orchids, they
are very local In their habits; but when
once you know the right kind of place to
look, you are nearly sure to find them The
under evergreens,' but have happened
to come across them more often under
lighter growth-naaples or young beeches.
Look through light, open woods, and
along wooded ridges where the rock crops
out and gray moss crunches under your
feet. Sooner or later you will find the
lovely things, standing sometimes singly,
sometimes In groups of three or four to
ten or twelve. The whole plant is beauti-
full. The great. broad leaves are warm
green, and between them, as from a
sheath, the downy stem rises, with the
perfect blossom bending at the top. The
flowers vary greatly in color, from deep
rose pink with purple veinings to palest
rose color; and sometimes, If you are
lucky you will find one that Is pure white.
The whole family Of orchids has very
curious and interesting popularity. Prob
ably you all know that flower cannot
bear seed or fruit unless the fine powder
from the stamens, called pollen, falls upon
the pistil. In many flowers this happens
Of ITSELF, but the orchids have to depend
upon bees or other insects climbing IN
for honey, brushing against the pollen
masses, then rubbing of their dusty jack
