Starting u Flower Garden.

Spring Is the time when the average
amateur flower gardener makes his
worst mistakes. Too often he buys
seed which he does not handle proper
ly, with the results that bare spots In
the garden show where he expected
beautiful blossoms The young plants
that he expected to flower are killed by
the hot sun or choked under heavy or
dry soil.
The amateur who would rival the
professional florist in the radiance Of
his garden, should make start now
by sowing the seed Of many kinds Of
snowy ANNALS in boxes or pots, to be
kept indoors for awhile. The boxes
should have holes for drainage in the
bottom, but should not be so open as
to keep the soil dry. Ordinary garden
soil may be used in the bottom, but Mt
the top there should be lighter soil.
we'll mixed. The small seed should be
sown on the surface; then fine soil
spread over them and pressed down,
but not so hard as to cause the soil to
bake. Coarse seed can best be planted
In little drills, or each seed pressed
down into the soil, and the whole COW
cred with thin layer Of earth, as
with the small seed. The soil should
be gently sprinkled with water imme-
diately after the planting. Only the
quantity Of water which the soil can
absorb without becoming soggy should
be given. The box should be watered
subsequently whenever the soil becomes
dry little below the surface
1t Is good practice to SOW the seed
In rows, as this enables the soil to be
stirred to prevent 1t from baking. The
box should be set by the window and
given plenty Of light, but at the same
time shielded from the hot sun. When
the plants have grown to fair size, It
will be warm enough outdoors to set
them out in the garden Only the
stronger plants should be chosen for
replanting. Agortums, sweet alyssum.
shapdragons, heliotropes, lobelias, mas
turtiums and verbenas can be treated
successfully this way.

A Maiden Speech.

Very few persons acquit themselves
nobly in their maiden speech. At a
wedding feast recently the bridegroom
was called upon. as usual, to respond to
the given toast.
Flushing to the roots Of his hair, he
rose to his feet. lie intended to imply
that he was unprepared for speechmak-

upon the brides shoulder, and looked
down at her as he stammered out his
openIng (and concluding) words:

rings an inch or more in diameter and
two straps with strong buckles are
needed.
The strap should be wide enough so
that it will not cut the legs of the hog.
Place one of the straps over the front
leg, after placing the ring in position,
and the other over the hind leg on the
same side. Be sure and buckle the
straps tight enough so that they will
not come off. Then take a strong rope
and tie in the rings as shown. being
careful that it Is long enough so that
the hog can walk comfortably.
After trying one or two jumps while
this attachment is on the hog will give
it up as bad job, but the device should
be kept on until the animal Is complete

fit closely against the back, as this will

of three-quarter inch lumber.
Churning When Weather Is Cold.
Let the milk stand thirty-slx hours {;
then skim. If 1t stands longer than
this, especially in cold room, the
cream is liable to be bitter, and con-
sequently you will have bitter butter.
Once day turn into the cream a quart
of new milk warm from the COW, then
stir thoroughly. If the cream does not
sour by the time the bucket Is nearly
full, set 1t on the stove reservoir or
warm, not hot, water, stirring frequent
ly until soured. Then add sweet cream,
or new milk enough for a churning.
Let this stand twelve hours; then warm
on the reservoir OF warm water, SUR
ring often, SO that the cream Will warm
all through.
AS soon as the right temperature Is
obtained the cream should be churned.
A little salt added to the cream after
it is In the churn Is great help In
separating the butter from the milk,
and it also aids in gathering the but
ter. If there are bubbles In the cream
after churning while, add a little
warm water frequently until the butter
is gathered. This Is a favorite method
In cold weather, and If followed you
will always have sweet. solid, salable

uauItpr Manure to Field.

While it is admittedly the better plan
70 get the manure to the fields as soon
after it is made as possible, the plan
has its greatest value when the manure
is spread as soon as placed on the soil
that is. do not put it in heaps to
spread at some later period. but, if pos
sible. load it from the stable directly
into a spreader, so that as soon as 1t
reaches the field it can be put on the
soil. where it will leach in during the
winter. The idea Of carting the manure
direct to the field is to have 1t i'm
proving the soil instead of letting n
portion of its virtue go into the air, as
is the case when 1t lays in the barnyard
all winter.

in tho United States for the first quarter
of 1906 amounted to 80. .0o0 600 pounds, in
round numbers. or at the rate of l.o00, 90 =

tion In the United States for 1905 was
estimated at 10000, 600 pounds. nn In

measure this amount OF production can
be realized through development. IL is
figured that with the American Smelling
and Refining company, with 250Co0.QI
pounds annual output. and the Amalga-
mated, owning similar output. these two
interests, with proper alliances, can come
pretty near to a regulation OF output and
