It is doe:Mita If there its a month that offera better returns for labor spent in the small vegetable garden than does the Month of July'. The experiment is worth trying. The conditions in july are far (lifferent than those in April, anti it ie• there - fere important that the gardener fullY uuderatend them, BO as to be able to talte advantage of the opportunities offered, • The seed Boom iuu1y•rnuee. placed creep ist the soil—as ddrithe hake Month the weather is dry and lusted or the Seed will not proPeely develop. But this dem net imply thdt deep planting means deep covering. Deep planting and deep covering must not be confounded. A good rule to follow In this is "four times the diaraeter is the depth a seed should be covered." In deep plantiug the rows should. be opened at least four inches, the seed sown,on the bottom and covered lightly: As the plants grow earth elsould be filled le until the ground is "tte ht This method, which might be (*led "trench planting," a:timers several purposes in hbt weather that cannot be obtained in any other way. Being below the level erraporation is re- tarded in such rows to a considerable degree, and the dews of the •night settle mere readily in them, supply- ing tae seed wIth enough moisture to germinate them. The greatest advantage secured from trench -panting is the fact the Young, tender roots are placed far endegle away from the surface to prevent danger of a prolonged dry spell. d If the soil on. the surface is kept soft and free from weeds, the vege- tables planted In July will melee such headway that they will be fit for the table in from six to eight weeks. VEGETABLES THAT STAND HEAT. Bush beans will mature and glee a good crop; if planted any time during -duly. The extra early varieties of sweat corn will at thisseason usually be fit for the • table in about 50 days erne tho time the seed was planted. There is somewhat' of a risk in planting peas. They do not generally thrive in hot weather, end the crop would: hardly be worth the use of the land lit which is groats. Beets and carrots sown in july will give a crop of roots that will be tender the entire winter. But on the approach of frost they ',Inuit .be stored in and in a opol part of' the cellar. Cutabaga turnip seed can be gro.wu even �s late as the first of steguste but the earlier in July the seed A:put in the soil the better.

The rapidity with which watches are nowadays naanutactured has been made possible by the ingenious ma- chinery designed 'Within recent years for the making of all parts ot e. watch,. The speed with which these various parts are turned out is little short of •martelous. Great sheets of brass and steel are cut and rolled iuto ribbons and punched out tato wheels at the rate of 10,000 a day from each punching machines. Workers drill the thirty:one holes in the roof of the watch as fast as they can connt. Brass wire glides into a machine that measures oft the length of a part, turns it, puts a screw thread on each end and actually screws it in at the rate of 2,000 a day. The screws are of such tin', size that fifty gross of 'them may be put In a woman's thimble ,while of others there are a thouseeid gross to the pound. Balances are cut from the solid steel, ground down, worked up and drilled with their twenty•flve screw holes apiece, at the rate of 100 whedls a day trom each machine. , Wheels have their teeth cut, a cou.- ple of dozen at a time, some with from sixty to eighty teeth; at the rate at .1,20 wheels a day. from each ma- chine.—Harpers Weekly. • NOTES.'

UntU receatty but little one* mental work hes, been performed to, doternfine whether lasects have a true sense of taste, or gustiltory sense, es it is termed, in science, but the pre 110331 author has endeavored to show that bees have Mos and dialikes in regard to foods and has made a care- ful study of the structure of the sense (wpm on the mouth -parts oe the hond5r bee, in hIs experiments he used something like 5,O00 bees, meaty adults, all of which were kept In War normal state, Berme in the higher terms of life it is difficult to distingtlish the Belts° of tate from that of when, ad experiments Dr.. Melndoo has,discov- ,ered Plat in the bee these two (souses calmot be 'separated at all. In feet the sense of taste proves to be mere- ly One phase of the olfactory sense, or sense of smell. Iii hesting the (lenses of these insects the following esplo, stances were the most important ones Used: Vinegar, lime-suldhur, kero- sene, carbolic acid, Sammie acid, oil of peppermint, quinine and strychnine, and various other salts nixed with cane -sugar and honey, besides other candies made of various inignrs and honey. Dr. Melte:too began hy feed- ing the bees several •substances from which five classes weae chosen to study the effects; •repellent, sweet, bitter sour and salty substances, the four ;atter being representative of the attributes of human taste. The experiments 'glow that bees like honey best. of all foods and that they are able to distinguish the alit- ferences between various kihds at honey, that they have likes and dis- likes, and that they can distinguish In foods differences not perceptible to the writer, Oil of peppermint, whith is agreeable to man, is distasteful to bees, white, on the contrary, another substance which the experimenter did not like seemed to please the bees. It was also discovered that the bees must first eat more or less of certain foods before they can distinguish them, 'indicating that they have a true gustatory sense unless this. dis• crimination is made possible by means of the offactory sense. Silica tt was not poeeible to determine thle point by experiment, the author made a thorough study ot the sense el.gans on or near the Mouth of the bee. Af- ter studying the anatomy of the two general types of sense organs, inner- vated hairs and pores, the anther dee dided that the bees possess only a sense of smell, although, judgfng from the experiment to find the likes and dislikes of beeas regards foods, the indications were that bees also had a seise n -tore or less similar to Our sense of taste. During his experiments he also in- vestigated the tactile senseor the sense qf touch. a the honey bee, aud believes that with the organs for that purpose the bee is enabled tomould in uniform thickness the walls of all its cells. He also investigated the man- ner in which bees eat liquid foodby capillary.attraction and by a pumping force which they possess. Solid sub- stanCes, which they caanot eat at once, are dissolved by the application of saliva. He discovered that many solid substance. whiCh are not pre- viously smelled by the bees, releaee odors through the physical or chemi- cal changes brought about when they ' are dissolved by saliva. 'These odors are first received by the olfaetory or- gans of the mouth -parts which are the nearest, and for this' reason the so-called taste sense eeems to he only a phase of the sense of smell of begs. of the sides ad Is given a bamboo tube, in which is sealed the pleading of the person or persons whom he represents.

Prom this observation the other authors have concluded that in- sects can taste, although they• have not aseertalped whether they possese sense organs ardatomaticatly adapted ,for tasting, nor have they considered 'the role played by -the sense of smell in these responses.
