Seeds planted in boxes thus arrange (see the figure) and covered with a slight layer of soil should have plenty of water sprinkled over them daily and considerable heat applied from below, In this way the seeds can be made tc germinate in a fto* days, and if a few of the seeds from the different *pack ages are used the percentage of thos( that germinate can be noted.

I Is also advisable that each box be la. beled, so that the plants will not get vaixed. THE APPLE ORCHARD. .What J. H. Hale Would Do With It. "Culture" Is His Rule. Apropos of the new theory of keep Ing a grass mulch on the orchard J. II. Hale of Connecticut says in Rural New Yorker: If the orchard was ml e I should tackle It this coming 8)r 1 a broadcast applicat lo me g o ( fertilizer; stable m rn i f h ty of it; if not ne Ifoun had plen ~"~Ibne ground bone, pet at and most available form and a moderate amount of nitro gen. I would then put in a stiff, steady team and a good, strong plow and break it. up thoroughly to the depth of four or flye inches. I would have a man follow the plow with a good, sharp ax and give a smooth cut to all large roots that were broken. The trees themselves I should prune in a mioder aN way, no reckless cutting and slash ing. I should wvet the bodies and larger limbs and ,scrape them thoroughly if they were covered with rough bark that couid be thus got off. Spring .$nd Summer Care. Some time In March I should- spray the trees either with strong potash wa ter or sulphate of copper wash; later, as the buds were swelling, a good spraying of bordeaux and probably an other bordeaux spraying with some ar senilcal poisoni mixture along in May or early June. Assuming that the plowing has all been done in April, and the ear 11er the better, I should give thorough culture through May, June and July wvith most approved Implements at hand. A spring tooth harrow wvould serve the purpose best. A good liming of the land or a liberal dressing of hardwood ashes along the last of July and then seeding the whole to clovei grould be my wvay of finishing up the season. Th'Ie Winter Treatment. The following winter I should give whatever further pruning seemed desir able anad spray according to apparent nxeeds; a little fertilizer in the spring if my pocketbook wvould stand It, and then start the harrows the uminute frost and mnudiwould admit and keep up the cul tivation same as before. By the second year the orchard ought to begin to feel and showv the results of such treatment and p~erhapls to do some business on Its own account. Further annual treatment would continue along about the same lines, provided of course the results were such as to warrant it. Breaking anid tearing as many roots as would be likely in this first plowving up would be a great shockc to the trees and prob ably force a strong developmenmt of fruit buds the first year of cultivation, and so I should reasonably expect a fine crop of apples the second year, but It is one thing to expect results from an orchard arnd another to get them. A forty acre apple orchard rightly han died is worth a lot of money and ought to pay all the bills and leave ni splendid profit on top of it. I am a believer in culture and have mighty little symnpa thy with the general orchardists who expect to get success in any other way. Planting lPeau. Soil light and dry and not too rich suits the pea, which should be sown as soon as the ground can be worked and at Intervals of toun days for succession, Sprouting themi in a box of moist sand In a wvarm cellar before planting out, side ill give a considerable gain ir earliness. Peas grown cairelessly in th< garden for several solisonn deterioratt awl are not profitable seed. Sears'the I bs Kind You H3o AlWays Bougl Sinure 11ow to Cure Dietenaper.

How to Boil Water. "To boil water would seem to be a very simple thing," says a writer in the Boston Cooking School Magazine, "and yet the late Charles Dolmonico used to say that very few people know how to do It. 'The secret is,' he said, 'In putting good fresh water into a kettle, already quite warm, setting jm watef to boilin d., en tak ing it rlgld.9 for use in ten, coffee or o. 'drinks before it is spoiled. To et it steam and simmer and evaporate until the good watel is In the atmos phere and only the lime and iron and dregs left in the kettle is what makes a great many people sick, and it Is worse than no water at all.' For wa ter boiled like this and flavored with a fpw drops of lemon juice Mr. Delmon ico used to charge as much as for his best liquors, and he often recommend ed it to his customers and friends who complained of loss of appetite. It is worth trying." llow to DUe Beef Marrow. Beef marrow taken from the soul) bones and round steak Is excellent for cooking purposes. Cut it in small bits. put it In a covered small jar, set in a pan of water and place over the fire to simimer gently. When all melted, strain through a thin cloth into a clean pan, let settle for a few minutes, then press into small jars and tie securely. It wIll keep for months. hrow to Make Mayonnaise Dressing.

The cream may be omitted, if pre ferred. Have everything cold, and set the bowl into a pan of Ice water or chloppe)d ice. Add the oil very slowly at first.

Duffy Malt Whiskey Company, CORRECT BREATHING, How to Inhale and Exhale-Some Good Exercixen. The air in the bottom of many a pair of lungs is like the dead air in an un Ventilated celln. A .ongustor must be.JN e to expel the residual aht the base of the lungs for chest expansion, blood purification, radiant health and lasting beauty. Deep breathing exercises, through the Rostrils, never the month, should be practiced night and morning, says the New York News. Thorough respira tion increases the red corpuscles of the blood and purifles the entire circula. tory system. Thorough respiration frees the lungs of the noxious carbon gas and bodily impurities thrown off in the form of watery vapor of the breath. At least ten deep inhalations of fresh air should he takeni upon0 or before rising every morning and the suae be. fore going to bed every night. These may be taken either in an upright or recumbent p)osilln' If lying down, lie flat upon the back, arms extended, and1( slowly inhale through the nostrils. 'Try to fill every air cell of the lungs. The abdomen should rise first, then the ecest, as the lungs become inflated. After holding tihe breath a little expel it slowliy through the lips. Fill and empty the lungs as thoroughly as possible and try to realize that health, vitality, en. orgy and beauty are in each incoming breath an~d impurity, wveakness and disease are being discarded with every exhala tioni. The breath Is tihe life. Oriental View of Womuunhood. The oriental idea of the freedom which American women enjoy (does not accordl with that of Americans.
