Ing made to save her. She had been
lonely and Respondent, it Is said, for

HoRsERADIsH CULTURE.

The little German village of Baiers-
dorf is famous for the fine quality of
its horseradish product. Over 1900
acres are devoted to the crop and the
average yield is over six million
pounds, selling at nearly 100000,
at price ranging from two and a
half to four cents per pound. The
land is moist valley soil which is
we'll fertilized, divided into beds
thirty inches wide and set with roots
in March in rows sixteen to twenty
inches apart, with plants eight to
ten inches apart in the row. OF the
shoots which start, all but the strong
est are taken off. The soil is fire.
quently cultivated and the weeds
kept out. From about the ehd Of
June to the middle of July, on cloudy
days, the soil should be uncovered
from the stem and the side roots
rubbed off with soft rags. Great
care must be taken that the lower
roots, which nourish the main root,
be not injured or broken off. In
heavy soil this uncovering is neces-
sary but once; in lighter soil it
should be repeated about four weeks
later. After the little fibers have
been removed, the soil should be
again pressed on the roots, and the
beds should be watered well-if pos
sible by rain water or light liquid
manure. Between the end of August
and the middle of September the
stalks are cut off by means of sickle
like knife, and the end roots remain
in the ground until the following
March to serve as plants for the next
crop. If change of crop is contem-
plated for a horseradish field, good
care must be taken to remove all the
roots carefully, for every fiber re-
manning will again sprout. Stable
manure is used mostly for fertilizing,
but some farmers have utilized arti-
hcial manure with very good results.

TO WINTER vERANDA PLANTS.

Certain potted plants add much to
che comfort and beauty of the sum-
mer veranda. They are especially
useful where vines are lacking, since
the taller varieties make excellent
screens, while the bushy ones serve
admirably for decorative purposes.
1t proves an expensive matter, how
ever, to buy new specimens each year
Such hard-wooded plants as lemon
verbena, oleander, fuschia and hy-
drangea may be carefully carried
over winter in the cellar; but the cell
lar must he exactly right for them;
not all cellars are adapted to the
needs of slumbering shrubs. 1t should
be cool, moderately damp and at the
same time absolutely frostproof Or
dinarily the cellars in furnace-heated
houses are much too dry and warm
for the safe storage of plants. Where
this is the case, however, It is often
possible to board off portion of the
basement to be used for this purpose.
Geraniums, too, may be kept in
this way. But in whatever way one
may preserve them 1t frequently hap
pens that these useful plants are de-
void of blossoms at setting-out time
in the spring. One may require scar
let geraniums for the window boxes,
salmon ones for the beds and white
ones for cemetery use, but without
blossoms the plants look 80 nearly
alike that the gardener is unable to
arrange them with any certainty of a
pleasing result later on. BY labelling
them while still in blossom and be-
fore putting them to bed for the win
ter, the planting will prove much
more satisfactory. = Indianapolis

WHITE BREAD

United States Stamns.

The government of the United
States has decided to give up printing
its postage stamps. The Bureau Of
Engraving and Printing in Washing
ton has done the work since 1894 at
>a.losS which has amounted to consid-
erableJ each year and has been made
up by deficiency appropriations by
Congress-. The American Bank Note
Co. has now secured the contract, and
its Iwork will be done in the same
maRner as that which this company
turIhed out before 1894. The main
feature Of the new printing will be

on them. This is done in order to
prevent postoffice robberies, as 1t
will be impossible to dispose of any
large number of stamps with the
name of the Office printed upon them
after a. robbery has been committed.
An interesting field for collection is
opened by this action on the part Of
our government. The attempt to
gather collection Of stamps issued
from every different postoffice in a
state or in the United States may be
made, and in many cases will un-
'doubtedly be successfully accomp-
hshed. This form Of stamp collect
ing will naturally take the place of
postmark collecting, and in many ways
is likely to be more interesting and
instructive, as it will be the stepping
stone to the general collection of the
stamps of the world.-St. Nicholas.

HOUSE PLANTS AND INSECTS.

II house plants are started free
from insects they are rarely much
troubled with them in winter, but
vigilance must be exercised to keep
them clean, as their health is greatly
dependent on this. Nearly all house
plants should, in early autumn, be
removed from their pots and set out
in rich soil in the open after being
pruned to half their original size.
Then, when the foliage begins to
grow vigorously, they should be re-
potted and returned to the house.
In this way nearly, or quite all of
the insects which flourish In the
house but perish in the open will be
gotten rid of and proper care will
prevent them from reappearing.
