All bulbous plants that have been at rest during the early summer should now be looked over. as it is time to pot most of them. It requires early potting and good culture to get freesias in bloom by Christmas. It is almost im- possible to have the soil too rich for these bulbs. and to have really good flowers liberal supplies of liquid food is necessary after they have begun to grow. To have Roman hyacinths early we must. plant early; in fact. as soon as it is possible to obtain the bulbs. The largest bulbs do not always produce the most flowers, but. preferably, those that are hard and well matured. It is the custom with some growers to rush the crop of bulbs on the market to secure early ales at the risk of ma- The practice of most. plant buyers is to get them of the florist in the Spring. plant them in the garden, and let them grow all summer. \Vhen the first frost comes they will lift the large plants. full of bull and bloom, out of the ground and pot them. In}: few days the plants begin to lose their foliage and wilt. The heat way to do is to cut away about two-thirds of the plant and make them start new roots and new growth, though it. puts off flower- ing for sometime. The test. v. ay to have good house plants is to buy what are wanted in May, put in goal-sized pots. and plunge the pots in the earth. Pee that good drainage is obtained, put a small board on the bottom, to keep out the worms, and about every two weeks turn around to keep the roots from go~ ing through the hottom of pot. Keep well watered through the summer and by fall you will have fine plants that will produce more flowers than half a dozen poor ones. The best plants for flowering in winter are geraniums. Chinese primrose. calla, cyclamens, cin- eraria, Carnations, Easter lilies, Iilium,; freesias, begonia.s,. and many others] The remains of a. cooked chicken may be made into a delicious dish suitable for a course luncheon. Free one pint of chicken from bone and skin and chop the meat fine. Put one ta- blespoonful of butter in afrying pan. and when it is melted add two table- spoonfuls of bread crumbs and half a cup of stock or boiling water. Stir until the mixture boils, then take from the fire and add the chicken. some salt and pepper .and a little nutmeg. Beat two eggs and add. mixing them in thoroughly. Butter pop over or custard cups and fill them two-thirds full with the mixture. Pla'e them in a baking pan half filled with boiling water and bake in a good oven twen- ty minutes. When they are baked, carefully turn them out upon :1 heat- ed platter and pour around themthe following sauce: Rub three tablespoom fuls of butter with two of flour until a paste is formed. Put this into a saucepan with half an onion. one bay leaf. a stalk of celery. one blade of mace, and half a dozen mppercorns. Cover with one, pint of white stock, put the pan over the hack of the fire and let the contents simmer twenty minutes. Draw the pan to a hotter part of the fire and stir in half apint of cream. Let the mixture come to the lzoiling point, and the sauce. is. ready to strain and use. CARING FOR HOUSE PLAN'JTS. in order to have the best success in growing house plants for the windows in winter, the first thing is good, heal- thy plants. free from insects, People often fail to revive a sickly plant. The aim should he to get good soil from the. florist or from a pasture. It mat- ters not whether it he a geranium or u balm, the best care is neverssary for success. Nothing is more beautiful than a window filled with fine flow- ering plants in midwinter, but to have a dot of plants three feet high. not a leaf on them. is not inviting. and they require as much care as the healthy plants.

Our summers are much too hot to favor the growth of goodspikes. and it is well to saw some seeds of an approved strain now to have it when flowers are most scarce. just when Chrysanthemums are past.

Norys writers that the more thirsty a plant is. the more, perhaps. does it need :1 clean pot. partly because it will have to be watered so frequent ly, and is thus likely to become clogged.

THE JOB : : DEPARTMENT Its Local News is Complete: A machine has been invented which is composed of exquisitely graduated wheels rubbing a tiny diamond point at the end of an almost equally tiny arm, whereby one is able to write upon glass the whole of the Lord's prayer within a space which measures the two hundred and ninety-fourth part of an inch in length by the four hundred and fortieth part of an inch in breadth. or about the measurement of the dot over the letter “i” in common print. With this machine anyone who under- stood operating it could write the whole 3,567,480 letters of the Bible eight times over in the space of an inchâ€"a square inch.
