seed planted in the .soli very early in

moist and weir drained, but fresh
manure is not the beat to apply. The
seeds should be planted at a depth
of;; about one-half inch, and the rows
should be from twelve' to fourteen
inches apart. The seed should be
planted very thinly so that there
will be no needfor extra thinning of
the onions. Cultivation should cease
when the onion'' tops are such a size
as to prevent easy work. In the fall.
when the tops are about two-thirds
died down the onions should be pull-
ed and laid in windrows so arranged
that the bulbs are covered 'with the
tops of the onions. This prevents
any sunburn which causes ,consider
able trouble in storage. After they
have been kept in this position for
Sive or six,.days they may be gathered
up ' and placed in a :slat box or
basket and tied up some way so that
the rain will not get at them and the
wind will have plenty of chance to
circulate around the bulbs. The

may be left tn. Dutch` sets may be
planted as close together as they

be pulled as soon as they are ready.

In the apring of 186;x, Mr. Davids.
of Toronto, chartered the Sea Gull to
take out a consignment of lumber,
buggies, and sundries to a roan
named: Lysle, at Port Natal, South
Africa. ,Alterations were made in
her rig, to fit her better for her long
vo3'age,
and she was changed from a
se oozier to a brigantine, this rig
beim;°• considered handier for use on
malt water, She eaa.rried fifteen dif-
ferent `pieces of canvas, there being
six equare sails on her foremast. lier
crew alnountecl to tea men all'told.
Tiler° were. four meal and two boys
before the mast.
She left for Port Natal in June,
18G6.'and, nftor a three months' voy-
age without' Mishap, she reaebed, her
destination, She creased "`tine bar" At
Port Natal under canvas, witbout the
assistance of a tug, something ;quite
unusual. She excited considerable
colnmerlt in that port by too length
of her voyage and by the fact that
she was the. smallest vessel' whicb,
up to that time, had enter�edtthe har-
bor, and the only Great Lake trailer
which had. ever made the 'royago.
The Sea Gull started an her re-
turn, trip in January; 1866, her de-
stination being Boston. Her care
_
consisted of 'sugar, molasses, pepper
arrowroot, .ivory, and some ;37 pas
sengers, also two;monkeys', whit.
same of the ,alder citizens aright re
member afterwards being - on th_
steamer Bouquet, running to the; Is-
land. She arrived in Boston afte_
a voyage of 98 days.,: Here she dis-
charged her cargo and loaded Bou
for St. Johns, Newfoundland. Sh_
sailed from that port in ballast for
Sydney, Cape Breton, and there ; re
•
ceived a cargo of coal for Montreal
She came up light'from Montreal to'
Kingston, and there got a cargo of
cordwood for Toronto.
On her way back to Boston she
called` at St. Helena for fresh water,
where the crew and passengers visit-
ed the' grave of Napoleon.
In July, 1866, she` arrived in To-
ronto, after aivoyage of 13 `months.
She was placed on exhibition at
Yonge street wharf; and great crowds
flocked to see her. The Voyage had
been a 'very fortunate one, none of
the crew were,; lost, the vessel suf-
fered no dathege, and there were no
mishaps whatever, Frank Jackman,
sr., was. captain, and his nephew,
James „ Jackman, - mate. Captain
May, a salt water sailor, acted " as
navigator. James Jackman, now of
Toronto, is the'only surviving mem-
ber of the crew.
About $19,000 was paid for the
trip, and, after all bills were paid,
there was $12,000 profit. A sample
of South African rum was brought
baek and kept on tap in.the captain's
cabin. , Verily a little of it went a
long way—thousands: of miles -and
old mariners declare it was strong
enough to knock a man down.

brother of C rpiain Frank, took an-

of his own people, and he was taken
from them in a period .car social and

try, even Prance, has parsed through
for centuries, Perspective I s t ecic-

Other soldiers of note who died In
the coarse of the year included Field

fluence wee still strong in ,his ow*
land; Vice -Admiral 'Hikan000 Kama-
mura, of the Japanese navy, baron
Kalmar von der Gotta, commander-
in-chief of the Turkish army and a
man .whose work in shaping that
aroan- undoubtedly was a potent fac-
tor in the conduct of the European
war, and General <Gallieni, of
France. Two tragic and picturesque
figures in the necrology of the year
were, Sir Roger :Casement, Irish trai-
tor, who had his own countrymen
illtreated in German prisons when
they- refused to be disloyal; and the
mad King Otto of Bavaria, whose
life was sadly overshadowed to the

Professor Elie Metchnikoff, who
died last July, would have contri-

Professor Hugo Munster' erg, who
died most recently and who was at

strongly influential in a special ,field,
but died thoroughly discredited and

In the world of so-called ,material
