In spite OF the beauty of lilies and
the ease with which they may be
grown, few Of them are seen in private
gardens This lack may be remedied
BY following a few simple rules. There
is vast variety Of lilies and among
them may be found those suitable for
almost any kind of soil.
The first requisite for successful lily
culture is good drainage, not only on
the surface of the bed but at its bot
tom as We'll This may be obtained by
raising the bed several inches above
the surrounding level and placing
broken crockery, pots or stones IN the
bottom, spading the bed two feet deep.
The best soil is a 1oa m enriched with
thoroughly rotted manure. II the soil
Is heaNya liberal quantity of sand, mix
ed VOL will insure better drainage and
prevent decay. A little sand directly
beneath each bulb insures against de-
cay The beds should be kept free
from weeds and cultivated occasional
~ in dry weather. Moisture may also
be saved in dry, hot weather by null
ching the beds with straw or old ma
nure.
The bulb should be planted FIVE to
eight inches deep. This depth of earth
will enable the plants the better to
Withstand drouth and cold. A cover
ing of leaves. straw or manure should
be used to protect the bulbs from the
alternate freezing and thawing of the
ground in winter. This mulch should
be removed when the shoots appear in
the spring. AS the amateur gardener
PROCEEDS with lily gardening from year
to year he will learn needs of each va
riety, but in general the foregoing in
struction will suffice.

Defenses of the Channel Tunnel.


Sir Douglas Fox. who carried out the
work of the Simplon tunnel. is now in
Paris, actively engaged in the prepara-
ton OF plans which viii be deposited
in the private bill Office in November,
prior to the Introduction next session
of a measure seeking power for the
construction of the channel tunnel.
II legislative sanction be given to
the scheme, as far as the limits Of
British jurisdiction extend, the work
from each side of the channel would
begin imm ediately, a concession hav-
ing already been granted by the French
government for the making Of a sub
marine railway, which, starting from
Sangatte, shall form part Of the under
taking.
The promoters have already indi-
Gated their rea diness to place the con-
troll of the mouth of the tunnel at
Dover entirely in the hands Of the
local garrison, and on their Journey
from France the trains would emerge
under cover of the heavy guns mount
ed in the Drop Redoubt-
As an additional precaution, the pro-
moters are ready to provide, at their
own expense, means whereby the milf
tary authorities at Dover will also have
power either to food the tunnel or to
blow up its entrance, so as to make
trafic of any kind totally impossible.
Guarantees having like object in view
are being offered in regard TO the
French approach TO the tunnel.-Lon-

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local; Applications, as they can
not reach the diseased portion of
the ear. There is only one way
to cure DIZZINESS, and that is by
constitutional remedies. Deaf
ness is caused by an infamed
condition of the mucous lining of
the Eustachian Tube. When this
tube is inflamel you have rumb-
ling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed,
deafness is the result, and unless
the inflammation can be taken out
and this tube be restored to it's
normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever; nine cases out
of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an inaamed
condition of the m ucous surfaces.

Game Warden Rutledge: There
seems to be a misunderstanding
as to spearing fish. The law, as
now constituted, allows the spear
ing Of the rough fish (pickerel,
suckers, redhorse and carp) at
all times during the year, and
artificial lights may be used
while spearing. There is no limit
as to the mum Der of fish that may
be speared. No other fish but
those mentioned can be speared,
at any time. 1t might be we'll to
state that no ducks can be shot
until next fall.
