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 same size as those of common mustard. A very common roadside weed, growing usually enans close to the sidewalks Catq." ill Villages and small -sae' towns, but seldom proving a nuisance on the farm. PIPAVERA.CEIE (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 rhreas (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. dubium, with fighter red flow- ers, is also making its appearance. Hand - weeding is a good method to get rid of these annual weeds bearing showy flowera. Chelidonium majus (Celandine). FIG. 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. HYPERICACEne (St, J ohne-wort Family). The only plant in this family that may be classedasa weed is: Hyperieum perforatum (St. John's -wort). This has a shrubbery appearance, and is about lat 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 the root is perennial, it is not easily destroyed. But where the land is thoroughly worked it is not troublesome. The spotted appearance of the leaves, es- pecially when held between the observer and the light, together with the innumer- able stamens in its yellow flowers, Berne to distinguish it from other flowers of the same color. CARY0PHYLLarease (Pink Family). Herbs, of which the stems are somewhat enlarged at the joints; leaves mostly oppo- site and entire ; flowers terminal, consist- ing of four or five parts. Soule very beau- tiful flowers are found in this group, such as the Pinks, Carnations, Soapworts and Sweet William. Lychnis Githago (Purple Cockle). FIG._ 13. • 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 Plant has a grayish look; is about 2 to 3 feet high, and bears beautiful violet -purple flowers. The seeds are black and irregular in farm. The bright flowers snake it readily seen, so that it can be pulled before seeding, and • being an annual, be checked in its distribu- tion. Silene inflata (Bladderkampion. Fm. 14. This plant bears a white flower; the calyx or outside floral cup is quite yeiny arid bladder -like in appearance. The pistil has three styles, while the cockles 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, itt general appearance, resembles the Cockle; but an examination of the flowers shows there are two kinds -those on one plant being all standnate, 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 and small ; white flowers, with five- notehed petaltwice as long as the sepals ; the stems are also hairy. Not a trouble- some weed. Staniar ia. media (Chickweed). The stem 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 Found. It is quite hardy, but is readily eheeked by under-drainiug and frequent cultivation. Sapouaris. oflicinalis (Bouncing Bet). FIG. 15. A strong, coarse plant in the Pink fami- ly ; flowers somewhat pinkish, clustered in corymbs ; leaves 3-5, ribbed, 2-3 inches • long ; lower ovate ; upper more tepering ; stem 1-'2 feet. Being a perennial and vigor- ous grower, this weed spreads rapidly. It LS very commen by the roadsides, Lundy's Lane, Niapaa, awl other parts of Ontario. ft does not appear to invade cultivated fields to anv great extent, but is chiefly cent -hied to the roadside. -Prof. Pantou, 0. A. C., Guelph, in Farmers' Advocate. - Education. What is education! Does it consist simp- ly in attending a. school, a course of lec- tures, a coL1-ge, or a university ? Not at all. These are but the means to attain the end. The end is the drawing cut, or lend - mg out, of dormant powers already poseess- ed. The means ate frequently used with- out or:quit-in!r of the end. Not all who attend a college, or attend lectures, or read books, acquire an edecation, for the reason that they do not digest, and assimilate the food placed before them. When we feed a horse, a sheep, a pig, or a cow, we do Bo for a purpose. in the case of the first, that we may obtain work from him, and in the others to obtaiu respective- ly wool or mutton, pork, millg or beef. So tJ education there should be some purpose in view, and that purpon: should be tog& prove and better the condition of mankind, thus making life more enjovable. In the particular line of Whiell Nve are treating the object should be to produce more dairy goods of better quality at less cost than heretofore. and to derconstr...t& ac.aoot.',1 teen cnere in pleas'ure and prolic in a weii conducted dairy. Will education do this? Tho 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 successful dairies at the present time are those which are conducted by thinking men and wemen-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 elin- not be attained otherwise. -Prof. Dean, O. A. C. , Guelph. Egging Plants. I 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 Lime the plants with which the center of the bed is filled are ordered. They cannot be grown from seed and made effective. Alteranthera. Often called "Rainbow" plant, because of its varied and brilliant colors. It- is of easy culture. Plants should be set. about six irches apart. Achyranthes. One of the best because of its vivid •crimson color. Should be treated. like Alterantriera. Golden Pp ethrum, or Golden Feather, as popularly known. A good yellow. Ex- cellent for massing where this color is wanted. Not surpassed, I think, by Coleus Yellow Bird, which is the only other plant of this color which compares with it. Coleus Verschaffeltii. One_ 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 wanted. Giranium 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 clippings. Its foliage is a light green, edged with white, and a row of it is very pleasing in- :.!onnection with other plants, because of contrast in color. All the other geraniums having a white variegation are comparative failures for beddiue use, but. this is perfection in every way. °Among flowering plants of a habit of growth suitable to this purpose, I consider the Dwarf Ageratum one of the best, because of its Linen; lowecoMpact form. Its laven- der -blue flowers are borne in :mini profusion that they almost cover 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 preperlte clipped. In order to succeed satisfactorily with any of these pitons, they must be clipped frequently to prevent them from taking on a straggling or uneven form. ClipPiug not . only keeps them in shape. but causes them to become thick and compact, because it forces them to throw ou.t many more branches from the base or lower branches of the plant than they would be likely to do if not out 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 planta should not be set more than eight inches apart. Mignonette is nob only pretty for edging beds of annuals where a formal effect is not eared for, but it is so fragrant,. and so useful for cutting that I prefer it to anything else for this purpose, in this part °Utile garden. - E.

Ginger Cookies. -,One oup sugar ; half cup shortening; haif cup molasses ; two- thirds cup warm water ; one-fourth tea- spoonful salt; one teaspoonful ginger; flour enough to roll ; dissolve one teaspoonful- of soda in the molasses. Apple Pudding. -Two cups bread crumbs; two cups chopped apples; one (rep sugar ; four eggs; 'one cup milk ; scald the milk and pour on the crumbs. Eat with warm sauce or sweet cream. Another pud- ding which is nice cold, we think, is made by beating the yolk e of six eggs with two tablespoonfuls of sugar, and stir in a quart of milk, when it oomts to a boil, put in two tableepoonfuls of cornstarch, dissolved in a little milk, stir hard. Beat the whites to a froth, add three tablespoonfuls of sugar, spread over the pudding and brown. Slimmer Chat. In looking over the trunks and cicsets this summer, see if you cannot weed out many things you have saved for years. Give away many things you have all out grown, even books and pictures. All the pretty dress skirts of your family that it ie possible to utilize, rip, wag' and tie up, to make comforts of in the late summer. This is pleasant work to sit out on the lawn and do. You can be out of doors and still be doing something for winter. Burn and destroy all old letters of no value; even clothing that has become soiled past cleaning. Nothing breeds moths faster. For packing away cloaks, nothing is nicer than the moth proof paper sacks, fifty cents each, that can be hung up, and no moth can enter. Cloaks with fur must be especially guarded. Get all the sweet summer you can; eat outdoors as often as possible. Sit out of doors; it will improve your health. Never mind the sun and tan -it is better than ill health. Have sonie kind of a hammock somewhere about the place, and rest in it some part of every day. A light frainework fixed around a tree and covered with cheap cotton will last one sea- son and serve to keep off draughts of wind and also to give a little more privacy from the scrutiny of the neighbors. Throw a blanket down on the grass and tie a little cap over baby's head, mit on a light wrap, and let her crawl all around on it and pull clover tops while you read or sew. On rainy days, give attention to in- door things and fix them tip to last till the next rainy day. Coax the children to sleep through the heated part of the day, then bathe and dress them, a,ud all go out for your fresh air time. Keep the house well aired from five to seven in the morning, and from sundown to bedtime in the evening, and closed the rust of the time, and you will find it very much cooler. Watch your early fruits during July and August, as they ere apt to, mold. Straw- berries and the early jellies, should be kept up -stairs, where itis warm and dry. Always keep some kind of disinfectant in the house to use. Air and watch your cellar, as much malaria and fever can be traced to that. A pleasant home is had only at the price of the eternal vigilance of the house- keeper. Everyone else enjoys it, but she must see that it islenjoyable. -CHRISTIE IRVING. Li nu id Manure. 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 ovennight, 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 than 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 moiature is necessary in its deecnnposition ; consequently, it must not be allowed to become thoroughly dried when under cover, but jest enough water added to keep the mass moist and prevent a too high temperature during fermenta- tion. Advantages of Wide -Tired Wheels. We have had an object lesson on the ad- vantages of wide -tired wagon wheels. When the East Jiirsy Water Co. were laying water pipes, a large number of them were carted through the main street of our village. The street is macatlaulized, 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 trite -kg upon which the pipes were carted had very wide tires, and it was a surprise to see that, instead of flitting, or in the least injuring the road, as they cer- tainly would have done if the tires had been - narrow, they actually improved the condi- tion of the road, and left it an smooth as a floor. It is great pity that something cannot be done to in -duce the owners of heavy wagons and trucks to have wider tires upon their wheelie -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 phosphoria- acid, and less :than 1 per cent. of potash. Col- lected daily, however, and mixed with dry dirt ancl 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 Ex.pertinents. • The Agricultural Department has been experimenting with the inoculation of swine as a preventative of ch-Olera.

It appears that Mrs. William Armstrong,when nearing the village on Wednesday afternoon, espied the bear a little west of our school, and at once reported her discovery in the village, but it seemed thcse to whom she spoke could not reallybelieve it was a bear, so entailed is _ such a sight in these parts. But, sure enough, Bruin was again seen when nearing the evening by Mr. Chesney, V. S., who pluckily gave chase after him into the woods belonging to Mr. McLaren, although he was unarmed. But by this time Mr. James Burns was on the war path also, son companied by a Mr. Patrick, and with their dogs treed the bear a little north in Mr. Reith's woods. The alarm was then given, and fires. built around the bottom of the large tree in which he had taken refuge, and in an exceedingly short time about fifty of our citizens were on the scene of action, well equipped with riflas, shot guns, re- volvers,axes,pitchforks and sticks. and with alook of determination that foreboded evil for the bear. But, by this time it had near- ed midnight, and it was decided to delay further action until the early inOrning light. In the meantime the army of watchers kept sentinel during the long hours of the night, .but during that time it was hard to restrain our veteran crack shots, Messrs. J. Caldwell and Richard Coad, from shooting, but yielding to the wish of the crowd, they held off until morning,but the delay and surprise so told on their nerves that when the order to shoot was given they were not, able to bring their usually unerring aim to bear on Bruin, and the honor of shooting him,which was effectually done, a number of shots being almost simultaneously fired, fell to the lot of the amateurs. It was found when measured that the bear was nearly six feet in length, and weighed nearly two hundred pounds. [It is hoped that no stroll- ing foreigner of Italian ancestry will turn up some of -these fine days and be making enquiries for his faithful trick bear that had by his antics earned many coppers for his lazy master. --En.] • News Notes. -The General Assembly of the Presbyter- ian Church, in Session at Montreal, have selected Brantford as the next place of meeting. -Mr. D.
