WITH THE CHRISTMAS PLANTS
Trees and Flowers Are Believed to
Owe Peculiarlties 10 Connection
With Jesus.

HE legend OF the Glaston.
!. bury Thorn is that after the
death Of Jesus, Joseph Of
\s(I Arlmathea came over tc
England. Shortly before
Christmas, he rested on the summit
Of Weary-all hill, Glastonbury. There
he thrust into the ground his staff.
and on Christmas eve it was found to
be covered with white blossoms. The
bush Is said to have continued bloom.
ing thus each Christmas eve until dur.
ing the civil wars when it was cut
down. Cuttings from the original
thorn are said to bloom in this same
wonderful way even yet.
The Sllician children put penny.
royal in their cots on Christmas eve,
believing that at the exact hour and
minute when Jesus was born 1t will
blossom.
There is a cherished legend IN the
East that the Rose Of Jericho first
blossomed at the birth Of Jesus, closed
at the cruclfixlon, and opened again
at Easter, from which comes Its name
of Resurrection flower.
Many plants, trees and flowers are
believed to owe their peculiarities tc
their connection with the birth or the
childhood Of Jesus. "Thez Star OF
Bethlehem" Is SO called because Its
white starlIke flowers resemble the
pictures Of the Star of the East.
"Our Lady's Bedstraw" received Its
name because 1t was believed thnt the
nianger In which the Babe lay was
filled with this plant.
An old account tells the story in
this manner: "The broom and the
chick-peas began to rustic and crackle,
and by this noise betrayed the fugi.
tives. The flax bristled up. Happily
for her. Mary was near a juniper :, the
hospitable tree opened Its branches as
arms and inclosed the Virgin ana the
Child within their folds, affortling
them n secure hiding place. Then the
Virgin uttered maledic,ion against
the brcoms and the chick-peas. and
ever since that day they have always
rustled and cracked. But later the
Virgin pardoned the flax its weakness
and gave the juniper her blessing

81 learned there that rice could
be grown TO better advantage, at
less expense and with greater
profit in upper South Carolina
than in Georgetown, because in
the upcountry certain expenses,
aegreeating $40 to $50 the acre,
which were inseparable from the
low-county cultivation. would
not be incurred. These expenses
included maintenance of banks,
bitches and flood gates and the
minding of the rice at certain
seasons against blackbirds by day
and ducks by night. No such pro
lection is required here in New

There are both upland and

rice, in my opinion. can be grown
profitably on every farm where
