The passion for acquisition is asign of ignobility. All those consumed with a lust to become rich, to own more than anyone else, are second rate men. No real noblemen could endure excessive wealth. Gen,ulne nobility accepts no unearn- ed privilege, but insists upon earning Ito money in a fair field and no favor, and, if it earne more than it can use in simplicity, delights to give it away. So far from nobility being connect- ed with inheritance, the inheritance of wealth has done more than. any- thing else to destroy' true nobleness and corrupt the world. What is called the aristocracy of the upper etass is as a rule an excellent Illustration of what aristocracy is not. For it is marked by pride, over -wealth, display, idleness and exclusiveness; and each one of these qualities is con- temptible, The 'very poor are also usually ig- noble because necessity and want 'tend to irebrute. But it is among the b.onest worts - men, among free and earnest profes- sional men, shopkeepers, clerks, ar- tists, and all who work for a living lit cheer and fidelity that are gener- ally to be found the true aristocrats of soul. --Dr. Prank Crane in Woman'ti World for April.

So long as asparagus is acknowledged to be one of the greatest health-impart- inc.; vegetables of all culinary deneacies there will be a big eall for it in market. It is a crop that -adopts itself to AN( soil that is kept in a good, rieh couli- tin. The eon should be well drained and porous-, a sandy loam being ideal. For field culture, place .out furrows in well-prepared soil five or six feet • apart; make the furrows 10 and 12 inehes deep, This is. eaeily 'accomplish- ed by the xtse of a team and large plow, going two or three times in the 'row un- til deep enough; then run the sub -soil plow. in the bottom of the trench, breaking up the elay bed and =king a porous suleeoil. This is &Most a neeez- say, for ht this operation appears the beeret of planting all permanent erops, and the more thoroughly this IS done the more profitable -the return*. .A. lib- eral application of well -rotted e Qin post and top -soil should be spread along in the furrows, the. more of this the bet - 1. ;iin. hel•los-et the plants one foot apart tho Two-year-old crowns are to be preferred: spreal the young roots out even on the confinxit, then eoVeY with one or two ittc1i of sesil, firming it well by the use of the feet. Ae the plants grow the furrows are gradually filled up at each cultivation. When the young plants have grown well ont of the treech the furrows should be made level with the eurface. Cultiva- tion elicenla be continued until the end of the Beeson. The following spring fertilizer sheuld be distributed on eith- er tilde of the row and then. kept well eultivated and free from weeds. The first season a crop of potatoes, beete, earrets, ole., can be grown between the rows:. No aeparague should be rut the first year, and but little the second. Etta year thereafter the yield should increase, but somewhat in proportion to the manure Itini fertilizers that are to he used! These slteuld be npplied every ;veal% early in the spring or fall.

When the tune for cutting draws nigh and the 6011 IS ill good condition for working, the rows should be nieely rig- ged up for elating. This ie neatly done witit a plow espeeially designed for the Purnese; en Email beds Ode can be accomplitqied With an ordinary plow and steel hand rate.

This gives the green grase so muchtalked of, alwa,y,s tender and rather pronounred in flavor. It should be remembered, however, that where grass is cut below the surface it is of the largest size attainable, but, when cut above ground it will diminish in size and in eousequence; it great differ - e1100 may be looked for in the yield of the entire crop. The green grass, how- ever,- usually sells for a higher priee in markets that demands it. The grow- er with long experienee and close obser- vation always eta* his grass fbelow the ground, thus avoiding any bees from overgrown stalks, which frequently hap- pens on warm days when allowed. to grow out • of the ground, For smail beds of asparagus for home WM the owner can well afford. to take a little extra pains in the prepara- tion of his bed, and it will make very little difference as to the nature of the soil, provided the trenches for planting are prepared with a fork that is thor- ough.
