In October they built their first
greenhouse. 1t was so by 20 feet, and
helping with. the work they managed
to reduce the cost of the first estimate
of $50 tc $65.
Early in November the plants were
lifted from the frame and set in beds
in this greenhouse. and SO well was
the work done that none of the plants
stopped blooming. At Christmas
nearly 1000 blossoms were picked and
were sold for ninety cents a hundred.
During May the young women be-
gan preparations for their second sea-
son by putting in second thousand
young plants. To save the trouble and
expense of moving them in the autumn
they marked out beds as they would
be when the'new greenhouse was COM
plete, and after setting up the posts
of the house, put out the violets. The
shades were stretched over these
posts, and aside from this and giving
them water when rain failed to come
often enough they received almost no
attention until September, when the
new house was completed.
The viclets bloomed so profusely
that the young women were advised
to have their violet beds photographed
ard samples of their flowers sent with
the pictures to some of the big florists
in New York. They did SO, with the
result that one of the largest con-
Germs in New York sent one of its
representatives to see the young wom-
en- and arrangements were made to
take all the blooms at the rate Of 81
hundred for all sent during Novem-
Der, So for December, and 81 for jan
uary and February, and rs cents for
the rest Of tho season. The offer was
accepted and the young women have
continued to ship their blooms to this
firm.

In the wrecking of a Berlin bridge
by water pressure, adopted to avoid
concussion, steel cylinder, fitted with
cement at the other end, was inserted
in holes about 80 inches deep bored
into the piers. A one-inch pressure
pipe connected the cylinder to a by
draulic pump weighing only about 60
pounds. AS pressure was raised in
the cylinder by the action of the pump
the pistons were gradually forced out
and the masonry blocks were split
away, one by one. The process is de-
scribed as rapid and almost noiseless,

A LIVING IN vlOLETs
BY /. M. BENNINGTON.

Two thousand dollars was the
amount netted two young women last
year who raised violets for the New
York market The girls started in
four years ago with capital of less
than $50 and about as little experience
as girls who have lived in the country
all their lives could have about any
thing growing.
Their first investment was IL un-
glazed hotbed sashes, 8 by 6 feet, at
10 cents sash. They glazed them
themselves at cost of $40.
They started their experiment in
the fall and devoted their evenings
to studying up varieties. They do
termined to choose the Marie Louise,
as it was Of the double varieties Eost
popular in the New York market, and
beside the Lady Hume Campbell, the
only double variety suited for com
mercial growing.
Early in March they invested $40 in
cuttings of the Marie Louise and be-
gan work in earnest.
Following the advice of a success
full grower Of violets they potted these
cuttings In Finch pots in mixture
of one welLrotted manure to three
parts garden soil. Besides mixing
thoroughly, the soil was sifted to free
it from Jumps. The pots we're then set
in frame in the garden and covered
with four of the sashes. There were
about thousand pots in all, but unl
fortunately the cuttings were very
poor,
While waiting for the cuttings to
root they built the frame into which
they were to be permanently set. This
frame was only a rough box, feet
wide by SO long, IL inches deep in the
back and half as much IN front.
The frame was placed in a fertile
spot il the garden. Over the surface
of the soil they spread well-rotted
stable manure to the depth of
or inches. 1t required all of their
spare tine for a month to get the soil
to their satisfaction. About the mid
die Of April they selected the largest
cuttings for planting first, leaving the
small plants for the last. Knocking
them carefully out Of the pots, they
set them in the frame 8 inches apart
in 6-inch rows. They soon discovered
that they had only room for about one
half the cuttings.
The young women built. another
frame and set the last Of their young
plants.
The first summer there was the red
spider to fight against. July and Au-
gust found ther very busy Swinging
the plants. It was a difficult task, as
the stream must be kept down low
enough to strike tho leaves under
meath and turn them completely over.
About the middle of September the
plants began to bloom, and although
they kept the blossoms closely picked
they did rot attempt ID sell them until
the first week in October They al
lowed the florist in their home town
to have all their blossoms at the rate
Of 40 cents a hundred in October

If You Want White Clover.

Most of the clovers are biennials or
perennials, but not so white clover.
1t is annual and propogates itself only
by seed. Therefore if one wishes
white clover in the lawn he must not
cut it so short that no ripe heads will
be formed to provide seed for the fol
lowing year. Some people are always
sowing white clover in their lawns
and wondering why they have to re-
peat the process every year.
