AflordinK a JS"c»v Opportunity to Gardeners. The forcing of dwarf or brush beana under glass has boon ft favorite prac tice at certain seasons of the year with most gardeners, but it is believed that the experiments of I'rofessor F. W. Itane of the New Hampshire begun in 1800-7. In the forcing of the pole or running varieties are perhaps the first of their kind to claim atten tion. The pole bean, like cucumbers, tomatoes trained to one stem, sweet Corn, etc., must have plenty of head room or space above the bench or bed In which to develop. Doubtless this accounts for its not having been con sidered before. The modern lettuce and cucumber house, with the beds di rectly on the ground, are well adapted for this crop. rrofessor Kane's experience as sum med up by himself was very satisfac tory and appears to open up another new avenue for the energies of enter prising market gardeners. His conclu sions are: role beans should be included in the list of vegetables adapted for forcing under glass. The requisites for forcing pole beans under gln.ss are practically the same as for bush l oans, swivt corn, melons, cucumbers, etc.. a temperature of not less than «"•>) dejrrees. with 10 de grees or more higher during the day. The hwfee should be kept moist, and the soil likewise should never become very dry. The house adapted for forcing pole beans should have considerable space above the beds, ranging alnjut eight feet. Pole beans thrive well in almost any good fertile greenhouse soil. In this respect they resemble corn. The time from germination until ma turity varies with different varieties. The range for those tested was from 54 to 62 days. Much time is saved by starting the seed in pots, precaution being taken not to allow the plant to become pot bound before transplanting. The plants should be In their permanent positions before they begin to run. The varieties that were found to do well when tested were Mastiff (iolden Pod. Early Golden Cluster and Golden Champion, named In order of produc tiveness. A cord trellis is preferable to the or dinary beau i>ole for training up the POLE BEAN'S RCXXIXG UPON STRIXG TRELLIS. plants. They are more evenly distrib uted by the use of the cortl, and, too. the shade from the pole is avoided. Practically no trouble from insects or fungus attended the growing of this crop. One variety developed a slight tendency to pod rot at the last picking, lied spider and mite, which have been reported as troublesome In forcing dwnrf beans, are kept In check by maintaining a moist atmosphere. Where bush beans can be made u success as n main crop, with a house adapted for them, pole beans, we be lieve, will be found much more pro ductive, area for area, and hence more profitable. Winter Bee Notes. Amoug timely bee notes A. H. Puff advises In Farm, Field and Fireside as follows: If you And a good many dead bees outside the entrance of the hives after the bees have taken a fly during win ter, It is a good sign that they are strong euough to clean out their hives. If you find a colony that have no dead bees at the en trance, you may conclude it is dead or so weak It is unable to do business. Do not offer to feed liquid food in winter to your bees, for It is almost sure death to the colony. Begin feed ing liquid feed after the weather turns warm iu early spring and the bees arc flying dally. You can erect windbreaks at any time during winter without molesting the bees, and if not already done, do it now, as It will pay you for the time and expense. Make some candy from the best grades of sugar, and give It to the bees that you Uud scarce of stores about midwinter or a little later. CriiiiMon Clover. Tlila crop closely follows rj*e iu the feeding rotation and has proved very valuable In New Jersey. It lias been proved to be quite as hardy as the red clover and has yielded from S to 11 tons of green forage per acre, depend ing upou the method of seeding, wheth er on raw ground or as a cover crop. Experience In the growth of this crop indicates that July is the best month for seeding, though it may be seeded n " late as September and do well provided the autumn is moist and warm. The best crop results are obtained when tin soil is thoroughly prepared and the seed lightly covered witfc a harrow or other tool which does not cover ton deeply. The amount of seed may range from 10 to 15 pounds per acre. On freshly prepared soil the smaller quan tlty frequently answers quite as well as the larger, though when seeded in corn or other crop the larger quantity Is preferable. RKHUMATISM CUBED IN A DAY.

When Colonel Cartwell was military governor of Norfolk under the Confed eracy In IS<j2, he ordered the British consul to report for duty on the home guard. To this the Englishman object ed on the ground of being consul at Norfolk. "To what government?" asked Colo nel Cartwell. "To the t'Kited States government," was the reply. "But you are in the Confederate states, and rou must show papers ac crediting you to the Confederate States of America," said the colonel. "But my government doesn't recog nize you as a government," said the consul. "Very well, then; my government doesn't recognize you as consul," briskly retorted Colonel Cartwell. "Shoulder your musket and join your company." At this the peacefully disposed con sul threatened to have a gunboat come and bombard the place before he would serve. "That's Just what I'd like to see," returned the colonel cheerily, "for then the United States will fight you, as she claims that Norfolk is still part of the Union, and between England and the United States fighting we shall go free." At last the consul appealed to Mr. Benjamin, the Confederate secretary of war, who ordered his exemption from military duty, and the "three cornered war" so desired by Colonel Cartwell never came to pass.—Youth's Companion. Unique Weddin* Present. Most people know of the peculiar cir cumstances under which Robert Louis Stevenson won his wife. But even more romantic and astounding was the unique wedding gift he got with her. When Stevenson met his future fate at Barbizon. a famous artists' resort near Paris, she was the wife of Mr. Osborne, an Oakland gentleman. The friendship thus formed led Stevenson to pay a visit to California. lie arrived at Monterey in a dying condition, but the loving care of Mrs. Osborne and her sister. Nellie Van der Grift, gradu ally won him back to life. The nurs ing completed his lafatuation for the lady—nn infatuation which he did not pretend to conceal. Fortunately Os borne raised no objections. lie not only agreed to the divorce, but with a magnanimity rarely excelled actually attended the wedding breakfast. There he found his opportunity. Mrs. Stevenson's one source of regret was the positive loss of her sou. Lloyd Osborne, whom, of course, the father had the right to claim. Osborne made a happy speech, felicitating tin; newly married couide. and wound up by offer ing the most original of wedding pres ents. "To the bride." he said, "I give that which of :;li things is nearest and dearest to her h.-art. her own son."— Pittsburg l>lsp:.leb. One Me njiln'l Get. The foilov nig story of Ben Butler was told i.; a man who said lie was present 011 t!.e occasion: "Shortly after the war General But ler deliveied u lecture at I'ike's Opera Ilo'.v.e in Cincinnati. The general was well 011 to '.lie climax of liis speech when slowly from the flies overhead descended a large wooden spoon on the end of a Ktrin:?. Down and down it came until it reached a point two or three inches aliove the speaker's head, and then it - tupped. "The audience. of course, was con vulsed with mirth. but owing to his well known visual infirmity the gen eral was the last to discover the spoon, and indeed would probably not have noticed it at all except that in making an emphatic gesture to Italicize a i>oint his hand struck the suspended spoon. "Looking up. he recognized the ene my and took in the situation at a glance. Without any sign of embar rassment or confusion he detached it from the string and with the remark, 'Hello, there's one 1 didn't get,' laid it down on the stage and triumphantly finished his address." Army Flogrgrlnff. Soon after General Gataere was ap pointed an ensign in the Seventy-sev enth foot he turned out with the com pany to which he was attached to wit ness the flogging of a soldier. The man, who had been convicted of a seri ous offense and was later to be drum med out of the corps, took his punish ment badly, screaming a great deal. Ensign Gataere shut his eyes and turn ed white in the face, as though he would faint. When the punishment was over, he remarked to his color ser geant, "If I see much more of this. I'll sell out." The "noncom" responded, "You'll get used to It In time, sir." "Used to it? I'm sure 1 never shall!" responded the ensign. Flogging In the army was soon abolished, however, and the future general remained In the service. Wliat OfTenfled Her.
