One would suppose that baseball p'ayers would get enough of their fa- | Yorite sport from April to November, but they are not satisfied. Like the | eycler who rides in midwinter if he gots a chance, and the skater who de- | mands artificial ioe rinks in summer, | the baseball enthusiast has contrived | 8 way to play the game in winter. There is needed for the purpose a large, enclosed space with an arched [ roof, at least one hundred feet above the floor, and there should be very few pillars or other obstructions. The floor may be sanded or not, as suits the players, | The same rules that govern the na- | tional game apply in the indoor game. | There are some few modifications, however. The bal) is much larger and is softer, and the bat is smaller. This | is to avoid the smashing of windows | and the like. The bases on a regular | ball ground are ninety feet apart. In | the indoor game the distance is regu lated by the size of the building, but | forty-five is an average. Not only is | the shortening of the bases due to the | diminished space, but also to the diffi- | culty found in throwing the big ball any great distance. | While the length of the base line is | diminished, the distance between the ! | pitcher's box and the home plate is also correspondingly decreased. All | the other rules of the outdoor game | stand for the indoor game. There is | little advantage in the outdoor game {of a professional over the amatenr. | The handling of the big ball is about { as difficult for one as for the other, The pitcher cannot curve, and it is for this reason that the smaller bat is If a large bat was used there wonld be too much home-run getting. The game is played in the West—in Chicago principally | and is very pop- ular there, but has not found much favor in other sections.

It seems difficult for fruit-growers to understand that they gain little nothing by spraying the trees when they are in full bloom any harm is done at that stage. numerous enemies of the orchard work earlier and later, but for some reason, insects may be possessed of sentiment, ihe full bloom stage is much more free from their injurious attacks than peo- ple generally suppose. Some apicul- turists claim that the blossoms are at such times wholly given over to the bees and such claim is quite consistent with the usual benevolent methods of our ever watchin! moiher nature, who makes provision for all of her depend- ents. There have been many instances where most injurious effects have fol- lowed the use of honey made from nec. tar sipped from flowers that had been sprayed with poisonous compounds.

All the best varieties can be bought by the single vine for from five to ten cents each. Most deal- ers will let you have a dozen assorted varieties at the dozen rate, which is still low, If you root and this spring, you are likely not to get as well rooted a vine 2 year hence as you can buy now at less price than your own have then cost. It takes several years for a grape vine from cut- ting to get into bearing. Each of these years your culling vine started this spring will be a year behind in bearing as compared with the one bought now jut if you want to start the vines, the best way is to grepare the cutting sev. | eral weeks in advance of the time to plant. Cut each piece three buds long, leaving the bottom cut just at the bass of the bud, which should be removed, more other we one vines, those cut i to keep the bud back at the top.

A Modern Appian Way. Before long there is to be a magni ficent driveway or boulevard stretching along the shore of Lake Michigan from Chicago to Milwaukea., Most of the towns along the route to be followed have done something within their own limits to make easier the ascoomplish- ment of the great undertaking. Mil. waukee has built two miles of roadway like that at Chicago. and has given it the same name, Sheridan drive. Wau- kegan has done as much. When all the gaps in this road are filled it will rival the finest in Europe, both in con- struction and scenic beauty. § An immense Farm.

The bill to eacourage the artificial growth of spotiges within the walters of the state of Florida is viewed with ap- proval in that state. The sponge in- dustry is already one of some import. ance in Florida, its product amount. ing to nearly $300,000 per annum. At present any person, whether a citizen of Florida or not, or even if not a cit- izen of the United States, can engage in it. The bill, besides giving persons ihe right to cultivate sponges and pro- tecting them in thelr ownership under the conditions prescribed, also requires of persons not citizens of the United States the payment of a license of $35 before engaging in the business of sponge fishing.~-Jacksonville Times Union.
