Old Rye's Speech. T-wa mud to be estcn, ' And Wot to be drank t To be threshed In a bam, Not soaked In tank, il come a bleeeluK, Wheo put through a mill , Wt a blight and a cures When run through a (till. ' Make me up Into loaves, And your children are fed But If Into driuk, I wilt starve them Instead. In bread I'm a servant, The eater shall rule In drink I ntn master, . Tlietdrlnker a fool. Then remember the warning : My strength I'll employ, i( etiten, to strengthen j If drank, to destroy. Sowing Seeds. . The Hpring ia about on us, and seeil sowing In the garden and on the farm will soon be here. As myriads of seeds are wasted every year, a few hints may be seasonable and serviceable. The most successful sower we ever knew lets his garden ground get a little dry before sowing. Then he stretches the line along where the seeds are to go, sows the seeds on the surface, and then walks sideways along the line, pressing the seeds with his "flat foot." He says he never has a seed to miss, and so sows thflm thinly just where every plant Is to grow. Thereiis not only no waste of seed but no waste in thinning. There is no raking in of the seed and the whole is as simple as possible. His wife Is a good flower gardener. Her mignioneUe and phloxes always grow, and a ten oent paper is enough for the whole garden. She sows on the surface "pats" down, as she says, the earth with the back of her cast-steel trowel, puts the stick with the name in the centre of the little patch, and they sprout at, once. Now this ia Mil reasonable enough when we thiak of it. There are lots of peeple who believe that rag-weed and other rubbish will keep seed fresh for years wiien btt plowed down a few inches. Whether this lis so or not, ilwp sowing is known to be unfavorable to germination. Aeed like to be near the air, but near the moisture tcX), and all that is necoessary to this is that they be pressed firmly in the ground. Of course the seed need not be "tramped" in. There are ways enough of covering seed prerly with implements. We only refer to our friend's experience for the Ichsou it k-aehes.I A Small Flower Garden. A writer In the Wenlmi Farm Jour nal rccomiiM'nds for a small flower garden the following lit, as they do not require treatment, are good sturdy varieties, will staud neglect, yet do well: Asters,, balsamx. dianthus, petunias, phlox, calllophis, vwbenas, sweet peas, miginouette, cinnias, marigolds, and portulacas. The same writer again says : "The plants I have named will afl'ord a profusion of flowers from June to October. , Phlox will be the fint to blos som, -and then petunias will come on, and both of tliie flowers ewntinue to increase in beauty until hard frosts come. Asters will be in perfection- in August and .SeptemUr. Calliopsis be gins to blossom in July, and nearly all the others come on early in that month. If old flowers are removed and not allowed to go to seed, you will have a much greater profusion of bloom. 1 f you do not remove faded flowers, but allow them to perfect seed, you will soon see that your plants are losing a larje share of their former glory. You can't expect a plant to ripen seed and blossom profusely at the same time." Fruit Law. A bill has been presented to the Ver mont legislature, on petition of S W. Jewettand others, to protect fruit growers by compelling people to take proper care of their trees, on penalty of fine if found guilty of wanton neglect. We know of many cases where such a law, if enforced, would be of great benefit to rxmimuuitles. A single tree sometime becomes the pest distributor of a large neighborhood, which if attended to in season might be wholly prevented. - 3T ISetfsteuk may I covered w hile broiling, but should never be hacked while cooking, nor tided before cook ing; xiinply lay it upon the gridiron, and turn it but ouce, us ut every turn ing you lose thejulceof the meat ; wtVn done, lay upon the dish It Is to lie served in, sprinkle over It a little suit, and spread over it some good sweet butter, jud let Mttmd live minutes In the oven.
