Blue is the highest color of the floral world, and is preferred by bees. Blue flowers are, as a rule, highly special- ized both in form and color, and often possess marvelous medial:num which aid in disserainating the pollee. This coloring is very COMMOn in the mint and pulse families, and in this district there are in the former 49 and in the latter 81 species of bluceflowers. Their structufe is such that fewtinsects be- sides the long -tongued bees can gain accees to the honey, and In Some. in- stances a single species of flower is visited by a single kind of bee, as one of the larkspurs by one of the bumble- bees. While this high speolaliza,tion of the flower may inaure. interorossing, it is yet open to many objections, such as scarcity of peeper guests, mechani- cal imperfections, perforation of • the flowers by bees'and development of the perianth at the expense of the es- sential organs, DOMFATIO RECIPES. Remarks on Griddle, Cakes -- First, and most important aafl, is a soap- stone griddle. It should never be greased. It should be bin enough to hiss when the batter Ouches it.
