Plant one to three feet high; wide spread- ing branches ; small yellow flowers; pods awl -shaped, closely pressed to the stem, and erect, of about sa.me size as those of common mustard. A very common roadside weed, growing usually ceeee, close to the sidewalks in villages and small towns, but seldom proving a nuisance on the farm. ParAVERACEJE (Poppy Family). We are not troubled much with weeds from this order, of which the plants have a milky or colored juice, regular flowers, which soon fall to pieces and cover the ground where they have been in bloom. Paperer rheas (Field Poppy). This variety bears red flowers, which are exceedingly common in the fields of Eng- land, but as yet have not got such a foot- hold in Canada. The variety P. duliittm, with lighter red flow- ers, is also making its appearance. Hand - weeding is a good method to get rid of these annual weeds bearing showy flowers. Cheliclonium majus (Celancline). Fee. 12. This is sometimes found by the waysides, having escaped from gardens, where it has been grown. The flowers are small, of yel- low color, and arranged in a sort of umbel; the pods long and slender. The juice is a thick yellow fluid. It is not likely this plant will prove troublesome where thor- ough cultivation is carried on. HYPERic.acE.is (St. J ohn's-'wort Family). The only plant in this family that may be classed as a weed is: Hypericum perforatum (St. John's -wort). This has a shrubbery appearance, and is about 13. feet high. It is very common along the, railway track, where its yel- low flowers present an attractive appear- ance. In some places it becomes a nuisance, and. as rhe root is -re. et perennial, it is not easily destroyed. But where the land is thoroughly wprked it is not troublesome. The spatted appearance of the leaves, es- pecially when held between the observer and the light, together with the innumer- able etamens in its yellow flowers, serve to distinguish it from other flowers of the same calor. CARY0aHYLLACE.aa (Pink Family). Herbs, af which the stems are somewhat enlarged at the joints ; leaves mostly- oppo- site and entire; flowers terminal, consist- ing of four or five parts. Some very beau- tiEui flowers are found in this group, such as the Pinks, Carnations, Soapworts and. Sweet William. Lychnis Githago (Purple Cockle). Fre. 13. 8,4DOIN (414P C.v conductea awry. VVIU eaucation do tare The answer may be found in the fact that in every calling the more intelligence that is applied the more successful it is likely to. be, _other things being equal. The most auccessful dairies at the present time are those which aro conducted by thinking men and women -those who apply all the know- ledge within their power to the practical part of their- work. Not only in dairy edu- cation, but in all educational work, among those who must earn their daily bread, the demand is for something practical -some- thing that will help to acquire the neces- saries, and possibly some of the luxuries of life. The chief end in acquiring dairy edu- cation should be to apply the principles of dairying to practical every -day work, and thereby make profit; and at the same time there will be a pleasure about it which can- not be attained otherwise. -Prof. Dean, 0. A.C., Guelph. A beautiful flower, but, in the wheat field. it has lost its attractiveness, and is consid- ered. a pest. Its seeds are not so read- ily got rid of in clean- ing the wheat as some, so that it in- jures__ the quality of the flour. The plaht has a grayish look ; is about 2 to 3 feet high, and bears beautiful violet -purple flowers. The seeds are black and irregular in form. Tire bright flowers make it readily seen, so that it can be pulled before seeding, and being an annual, be checked in its distribu- tion. Silene inflate (Bladder Campion. Fre. 14. This plant bears a white flower; the calyx or outside floral cup is quite 'veiny and bladder -like in_ appearance. The pistil has three styles, whiie the cocklee have five. It is a perennial, and in some parts quite common, but is not difficult to sup- press by clean cultivation. Lychnis vespertine (White Cockle). This weed has a white flower, which, in general appearance, resembles the Cockle ; but an examination ot the flowers shows there are two kinds -those on oiae plant being all staminate, those on another pis- tillate, that is, each plant bearing one set of reproductive organs. This biennial plant is getting more common of late, but is not difficult to get rid of where thorough culti- vation is practiced. Cerastium arvense (Field Chickweed). This weed is usually found in dry fields, and is sometimes very common ; leaves hairy arid small; white flowers, with five - notched petals twice as long as the sepals; the stems are also hairy. Not a trouble- some weed. Stellaria media (Chickweed). Edging Plants. am often asked to give a list of good edging plants, by those who desire to have a , few beds on the lawn. Below I name and give a brief description of a few that 1 have found well adapted for this purpose. It will be necessary to. order them at the time the plants with which the ceuter of the bed is filled are ordered. They cannot be grown from seed and Made effective. Alteranthera. Often 'celled "Rainbow" plant, because of its varied and brillient colors. It is of easy culture. Plants should be set about six. inches apart. Achyranthes. One of the best because of its vivid crimson color. Should be treated like Alteranthera. Golden Pyrethrum, or Golden Feather, as popularly known. A good yellow. Ex- cellent for massingwhere this color is wanted: Not surpassed, I think, by Cokes Yellow Bird, which is the only other plant of this color which compares with it. Coleus Verschaffeltii. 0.ne of the first varieties of this plant to come into popu- larity, and still one of the best, if not the best, where a dark crimson or maroon is wanted. Geranium Madame Salleroi. If I could have but one plant for edging a bed, it should be this. It grows only eight or ten inches high, forms a compact, rounded mass of foliage and retains this form all through the season without any attention in the way of elite age. Its foliage is a light greet', edged with white, and a row of it, is very pies- a.g in connection with other plants, beea of contrast in color. All rile other ,t,IttoS haying a white variegation are anaarative failures for bedding- list', 1/::t is perfection in every way. .Anuing _e-iug plants of a habit of growth suitable Lids purpose, I consider the Dwarf Ageratum one of the best, because• of its thielt, low, con -pact form. Its layen- der-blue flowers are borne in such profuedon that thy -almost corer the plant, and by them we get a color for pattern or ribbon work that we can get from no other plant. Sweet Alyssum is useful for small bloom, if kept properlt clipped. order to succeed satisfactorily with any of these plants, they must be clipped frequently to prevent them from taking on a straggling or uneven form. Clipping not _only keeps thern in shape, but causes them to become thick and compaet, because it forces them to throw out Many more branches front the base or lower branches of the plant than they would be likely to do if not cut back. One of the chief beauties of these plants, when used as edging, consists in their neat, trim appear- ance. The Coleus is the rankest, grower of all named, but plants should not be set, more than eight inches apart.. Mignonette is not only pretty for edging bects of annuals wheFe a formal effect is not cared for, but it, is so fragrant, and so useful for cutting that I prefer it to anything else for this purpose, in this part of the garden. - E.

Penfield -',No; but he has stopped taking her to the theatre and goes to church with her now every Sun- day evening." -" Fine morning," said the baker to the butcher, "beau taking a walk?" " Yes ; just came from your shop with half a dozen loaves of bread. " Where are they, then?" "Under my kat. Plenty of room for them there." The baker did not forget this insult and-avheri the butcher next met him on the street and asked him where he had been, he promptly answered, "Been to your ter -house; bought a calf's head." "Where is it, then ?" " Under my hat," he retort- ed, and walked away, triumphant, as he thought. -A bright youth, undergoing examina- tion for admission to one of the departments at Washington, found himself confronted with the question "What is the distance from the earth to the sun ?" Not having the exact number of miles with him, he wrote in reply: "I am unable to state ac- curately, but I don't think the sun is near enough to interfere with a proper perform- ance of my duties if I get the clerkship." He got it. The stern of this annual is weak and spreading, with a line of hairs ; leaves somewhat oval and many small star -like white flowers, and is generally found grow- ing on damp ground. It is quite hardy, bue is readily checked by under -draining and frequent cultivation. Septet:trio, officinal is (Bouncing Bet). Fro. 15. A -strong, coarse plant in the Picric 'fa-mi- lv ; flowere somewhat pinkish, clustered itt corymbs ; leaves ribbed, 2-3 inches iong ; lower ovate ; upper more tapering ; stem 1-2 feet. Beitig a perennial and vigor- ous grower, this weed spreads rapidly. it is very common by the road -ides, Lundv'e Lane, Niagara, and otherpartei of Ontario. It does not _ appear ao -invade cultivated fields to any great exteut,• but is chiefly confined to the roadside. -Prof. Panton, 0. A. C., Guelph, in Farmers' ..ket6liirste. _ .

In making liquid manure to apply to plants in the garden, there is little danger of getting it .too strong when made from common stable -manure. A half bushel of, manure, soaked over night; or longer, in a 40 -gallon cask of water, will be about right. Fill up the cask with water, and use this the following day. Poultry. manure is stronger then stable manure, and a less quantity will answer, say one peck to 40 gallons ot water. Stable manure • will lose • much -of its strength, if left out and expos- ed to rains; in fact, if left long enough, it will all be washed away, or, at least, all of its soluble parts. The older and more thoroughly decomposed, if kept under cov- er, the more quickly does it act as.a nutri- ment to plants. But moisture is necessary in its decomposition ; consequently, it must not be allowed to become thoroughly dried when under cover, but just enough water added to keep the mass moist and prevent a too high temperature during fermenta tion.

We have had an object lesson on the ad- -vantages of wide -tired wagon wheels. When the East Jersy Water Co. were laying water pipes, a lame number of them were carted through the main street of our village. The street is macedamized, and, owing to imper- fect drainage, had to be. repaired. •, This left considerable loose stone (broken trap rock) on the surface. Now the large and very heavy trucks upon which the pipes were carted had very wide tires, and it, was a surprise to see that, instead of rutting, or in the least, injuring the road, as they cer- tainly wodd have done if the tires had been narrow, they actually improred the condi- tion of the road, and left it as smooth as a floor. It is a great pity that something cannot be done In induce the owners of heavy ,wagons and trucks to have wider tires upon their wheels. -American Agri- culturist. Poultry Manure. Poultry manure is worthless unless it is composted when fresh, owing to a large portion becoming hard and insoluble silicates being formed. It rarely contains over 2 per cent. of nitrogen or phosphoric _acid, and less than 1 per cent. of potash. Col- lected daily, however, and mixed with dry dirt and plaster, the mass being kept moist with soapsuds, it will be in a more avail- able form for plant food than if kept dry. ------- -------- -- Inoculation Experiments.

As they walked along the track they noticed a hotel at the foot of Tecumseh street, and decide 3 to go there, tell their story, and see if the proprietor would not give them something to eat and a night's lodging. As they proceeded on their way Clarke's foot caught in a frog of a switch and at that -moment the sound of an ap- proaching train was heard. The twolmen were almost frantic and very weak.
