ASPARAGUS LONG A FAVORITE
Records Date Back Almost to Begin
nina of Authentic History.

OF all food plants there is none
which has been so long known or beer
possessed of so distinguished line
age as the asparagus. Its records
reach back almost to the beginning
Of authentic history, and it is men
toned by the comic poet Cratlnus,
who died about 425 B. c. The Ro'
mans held the vegetable in high es'
teen. The elder Cato wrote a worR
which is still eXtant, DE re Rustlca,
and it treats at length Of the virtues
and proper cultivation OF asparagus
Piiny, in his natural history, written
about 60 A. D.. has much to say about
it. He feelingly observes: "Of all
the products of your garden your chie1
care should be asparagus" and he de-
votes several chapters to its many
good qualities and the best methods
Of raising it, He asserts that the SOIL
about Ravenna was so favorable to
its production that three heads grown
in that district had been known to
weigh Roman pound. This pound
seems 10 have been about equal to
eleven ounces in our day, so it would
apparently have taken four Of the
stalks to have reached pound of our
weight.
The asparagus being essentially a
southern plant, it is possible that the
stock growing in Italy was OF a more
vigorous growth than that OF our
northern cline. 1t is found all around
the shores of the Mediterranean and
branches off into four or five distinct
species besides the one ordinarily
used for edible purposes.

Hens Victims of Old Fogy Notions.

MY son and myself, SAID DE- II.
F. Hodges, took an automobile run to
Martinsville. He was the chauffeur;
we did not return by the same road. |
don't know how many hens we ran
over going and coming. We did not
stop to count.
ut is a dry time and the roads are
dusty. SO much the worse for tho
hens. suppose it is different with
hens in the cities and towns, but
along the country roads they have not
yet learned to make proper calcula'
tons for escape from the automobile.
The hen is of mathematical turn OF
mind. She rolls in the dust OF the
highway and no horse-drawn vehicle
was ever known to run over one. She
figures closely, but always escapes
Now, it is different when she comes
to take the automobile into corsid'
Grafton. She expects to escape by the
length of a horse. The horse is not
there, and she falls under the wheels

The Antiuuity of Chairs.

Chairs were in use in Egypt 50 long
ago as 1899 B. C. The Chinese en-.

India they were used, and are men,
toned as dating from 100 B. c. House
chairs, with backs, were in use in
India A. D. 300. They are known to
have been employed in Rome so early
as A. D. 70, being mentioned by Pliny
at that date. Chairs with foot rests
were used in Rome A. D. $50.
