Nelson for this act OF patriotism.
The surrender itself was as pathetic
as il was memorable The French
troops were drawn up in a long line
on one side. the American troops on
the other. thus forming lane. through
which the conquered army marched.
The aspect OF the British was as sub
dued and detected as their thoughts.
CORVALLIS pleaded indisposltion and
did not appear. His sword was sent by
a subordinate.
Whether This was the reason that
Washington designated n subordinate

any rate General Lincoln was put for

VALUE OF A GOOD GARDEN
A Word Of Advice as to Devotins
Small Patch on Farm TO Rails
ing Vegetables.

Many people fail to realize the great
value OF a thrifty, we'll kept garden.
Even an inferior one is much better
than none. Vegetables are indispensa-
BILE to a family. sc far as health Ia
concerned to say nothing OF the money
saved by not having to buy TO much
Hour and 30 many groceries.
IL would seem that every man
should manage to obtain a piece OF
ground and see that II became well
tertilized and enriched and then put
under a thorough state of cultivation
before trying to plant the seeds. II
oply costs a little to buy enough seeds
Tor quite a good sized garden.
Radishes and early onions may be
made to grow In such a way as TO
keep the table well supplied nearly
the whole season. and, when taken
fresh and crisp from the garden. they
have proved TO be a fno aid to diges-
lion. Radishes soon grow too strong
and pithy, and are not At 70 use on
The table. To be good they must be
planted In rich and well prepared soil.
My way OF having a continual sup
ply, explains a eorresponi lent OF the
Orange Judd Farmer. Is to get two
packages OF radish seed, one OF the
small turnip-s shaped kind, the other
d the long kind, that are not quite so
Early, both OF the red variety. 4 then
plant n third OF each package. This
amount Is for a small family. but
where there lie a large family IL will be
necessary TO plant more.
When the early. little round rad
shes are about gone. plant again
about n third from each paper. BY
he time the third planting has been
neariy used other vegetables have
some on and are taking their places.
The ground. however. should be
cleared by removing NIL the waste
