Ferns OF all kinds except seedlings
do best in coarse grained, not sifted,
soil.
Dipping the plants in warm water is
one of the best plans Of destroying the

One advantage Of good drainage is
that with it the fruits will come to ma

This cat story comes from Pont Ste.
Maxence tOise), and for such q small
place 1t is an extremely tall tale, says
the Paris Messenger. 1t would appear
that resident in the place. who is an
enthusiastic angler. used to keep live
bait In a small tank on his premises.
The angler also had cat who natu-
rally was fond of fish, raw or cooked.
This being so. his owner covered his
tank with wire netting to keep pussy
out Of temptation.
But the cat knew trick or two and
went to the nearest refuse heap for
some fowl giblets which were provi-
dentially lying there. These she took
to the tank, let them hang into the wa.
ter from the netting and began fishing
on her own account When the fish
nibbled at the bait. puss would catch II
with a nimble claw! The angler, no
ticing the trick. threw the bait away,
but half an hour later puss was at It
again.
We hardly know which to admire
most. the cats ingenuity or that of the
concocter Of the story.
