Mint and Rue.

In the eleventh chapter of st. Luke,
verse IL It states: "Woe unto you,
Pharisees. for We 1.-THE mint and rue,
and all name Of herbs" Mint IL
mentioned no other place in the Bible.
In this day and age, or M least In this
country, both mint and rue have run
Wild until In some places they are n
menace TO better plants. Both seek
only damp soils yet both are quite re-
sistant To drought as the root system
still lives long after tops are de-
stroyed and will put forth again and
again. H. Is evident that In olden
times these plants were of great eco
monte importance In both culinary and
medicinal departments. Today, while
mint Is widely used, largely In manu-.
facture of perfumes, the use Of rue
has practically ceased.
