An alluvial bottom land, properly drained, or free from standing moisture, will answer lest. Uno hundred barrels of onions to the acre is a fair crop, though it will sometimes go up to fifty more. The crop will of course depend upon the cultivation. Hie h land, well looked after, w ill produce twice as much as half tho farm gardens by the methods usually employed in them. The manure may be hauled on during the winter nnd plowed in the spring. The earlier the seed can bo got into the ground in the spring tho better, for if tho plants do not get a pood start before the hot, dry weather comes on, they do not do so well. The prouna must bo brought into fine tilth and then rolled Hat; the latter is of much importance in securing a good set of plants. Tho seed should, for field culture, bedritledin rows, one foot apart in the rows, for convenience of culti vation. The crop is often placed in beds of five rows each, eighteen inches being left for an alley. The covering of the seed is best accom phshed with a light roller, drawing it lengthwise of tho lines. This rolling is also beneficial to the crop. Four pounds of seed arc required for an nrre, and it must be sown by machine and known to be good. Union sots are sometimes used instead of seed to grow the crop of ripe, keeping onions. In this case, seed is first sown I as before but the rows nee.1 no i, i than six or nine inches apart and the seed i euuuiu uv mil in Ttcicn ti,i..i- I 1 f... . crop of market onions.

Tho soreness will disappear almost immediately. The White House Tables. The fare and table customs at the White II on so are" briefly described in the Washington Critie as "follows: "Break- fa-t is served at the White House at nine o'clock on week days, and a half hour later on Sundays. It is a big meal with the President and a hearty foundation for the day. Uenerallv tho nr-hM covers half dozen dishes three or four vari eties of meat, usually a iramo course. potatoes, etc., pretty much as anybody with a good nppctile would order in a first-class hotel. Tho President drinks coffee at these early feasts, but the pretty mistress of the mansion likes tea with her toast, chops. so:t boiled esrirs and other appetizing di.Jics. Very" rarely urs. v. leveiaini taKes any other beverage than the tea and milk. The President likes a glass of milk also in the morning, and between chatting over their second cups of tea and coffee they manage to while away say a half hour at the first meal of the day. "Luncheon is served promptly at half past one, and if there bo a guest, at two o'clock. It is a midday dinner to nil in tents and purposes, but little timo is wasted in its discussion. Tho tnen-t ouo day lately a fair -ample of the average was a pair "of pheasants, sweetbreads, Saratoga chips, cold ham, chocolate cake and rream and milk and tea. "Dinner is usually served in about six courses, with all the accompaniments of (lowers and lighted candles, and the President, while by no means a heavy eater, does entire justice to every dish he happens to like, from the soup to the walnuts. Mrs. Cleveland has a good appetite, and has few likes or dislikes, cujoying a bit of nearly everything which comes to tho table. They both like tho diuntr served promptly, anil are rarely over a half hour ut table. The President drinks wine at dinner, but very sparingly. Mrs. Cleveland does not touch a drop stronger than Apollinaris at table. Both of them are easy to please, nud neither ever knows beforehand what is to be served. The steward buys what ho pleases, and all the President cares is to gee the food put i'ii the table in generous quantities. Frequently two-thirds of the dishes will leave the table untouched, but he wants to have the usual number kept up right straight along. ".Mrs. Cleveland has aomo old fashioned notions about Sunday, and wants the servants' work for that, day lessened a much as possible. Sho al ways has a cold lunch, and has it served up in tho quickest, simplest way, so that the servants can have a long afternoon and evening to themselves." Decapitation of Chinese Rebels. Seventy-one rebels, belonging to a cer tain religious sect, were decapitated in the Prefecture of Chang Chou, in Ki nngsu province, says the Chinese 7'i'mcm. Oil the Itth of this moon seventeen more of the same class of men were captured in Soochow, and in their possession were found papers of plans for capturing a small city called Chang Shou on the loth of this moon. When the magis trate held trial none of tho culprit de nied the charges, and most of them con fessed that there are over ;l,000 men be longing to their society living in that neighborhood, and they hold themselves ready at a moment's notice from the chief to capture any city that will be easy to assa.l. hen these fact were known the magistrates telegraphed to the Viceroy for a battalion and a few small native war junks to protect the city. The Vic eroy dispatched a denutv with the battalion of soldiers and the war junks as requested. Before the execu tion of the seventeen rebels another trial was given to them by the deputy and the local oliic ials. The decapitation was ef fected on the execution ground outside of the city.
