AGRIOULTURA. As is well known, there are many plants which thrust their seed vessels into the ground, whore the seeds are subsequently matured. The peanut is a good xample of a plant which con Ptantly exhibits this phenomenon, Others again develop flowers aud seeds entirely underground, while many aquatic plants ripen their seeds under water. The Persians, who are exten sive cultivators of melons, have; the curIous practice of covering this fruit with earth at a certain stage. such a method is in vogue among Persians who live in the neighborhood of TlMis, in the Caticasus. Only the choicest tnd best keeping variety, the true Dut ,na, is grown. 1C Is a long, smooth kind, which attains a weightof filteen to twenty pounds, and will keep till C'hristuas. The deeply tilled ground is thrown up into beds a foot wide in prying, and the seeds sown In a drill along the center. Finally, the plants are left at a preat distance apart, and irrigatoni is ecI~oted through the chan nels between the beds so that no wa ter touches the plants. The fruit sets iY? June, and only one or two are left on each shoot. When the fruit rs at tained the size of a man's list the earthi is hollowed (jut, and the shoot (with the exception of the 111)), together with its fruit, is buried ther.n to a depth of one to one and a half Inches, where it ri mains until the fruit Is almost ripe. Consid ral practical experience is ne cessary in order to be able to deter. mine the exact moment when the mel ons should be unearihied. Wlhen the culiI vator thinks that the time has ar rived. 1 e withdraws4 the shoot and its fruit from the ground. This is done toward evening, and the fruit is left on the Furface of the grotund, attachied to the shool, and exi:o-e(l to the dew of one night; but care Is taken to cut the fruit the next moning before the sun can reach it. It is then luanr in a e oh, dark, dry place until reatldy for eating.

Our only aim has been to publish the finest cards yet r shown. Applications for them have come in so rapidly that nearly the whole edition is engaged before the receipt by us of the cards from the artist. We have therefore been obliged to adopt theafollowing plan for the dis tribution of the remainder: No more of the gilt Shakspeare cards, seven in the series, will be sent excepting upon the receipt of a statement from a grocer that the person applying for the eards has bought of him on that day at least seven bars of Dobbins' Electric Soap, with price paid for same. All apply. Ing in this manner will receive the full set of seven cards gratis by mail. This will Insure us that our friends and pa trons get their share of these beautiful designs, although It in no manner re pays us for the cost of the cards, Your grocer has the soap or will get It; and the purchase by you of seven bars of it at one time will secure for you gratis seven really beautiful cards. The soap improves with age, and is an article of necessity in your house every week. Therefore you are not asked to buy a useless article, but one that you must have any way. Please send us your - application at once, and tell your lady friends making "Card Collections," to do the same. Grocers do nos have the cards to deliver.
