Again we've listed the ten 

 best of everything for garden 

 use. 



Here is a list of just n few of the headings: 



considered valuable enough to warrant the 

 expense of protecting. With small plants 

 an inexpensive and satisfactory method is 

 to have a man beat the snow off before it 

 becomes frozen on or weighs down the 

 plants. Large Box Bushes are too valuable 

 to permit being disligured by heavy snow 

 or sleet and bracing the branches from 

 within with rope is recommended. In very 

 large specimens, where the character of the 

 branching is too weak to depend upon each 

 other for support, it may be necessary to 

 use poles — Cedar or otherwise — placed eitlier 

 within the bush or four placed around the 

 outside and connected by rope. — Florists'

The lettuce to me is a most interesting 

 study. 



Lettuce is like conversation; it must be 

 fresh and crisp; so sparkling that you 

 scarcely notice the bitter in it. 



For Spring Planting 



Lettuce, like most talkers, however, is i 



apt to run rapidly to seed. Blessed is I 



that sort which comes to a head, and so I 



remains, like a few people I know, grow- | 



ing more solid and satisfactory and ten- i 



der at the satne time, and white at the | 



center, and crisp in their maturity. | 



You can put anything (and the more I 

 things the better) into salad, as into a 

 conversation, but everything depends 

 upon the skill of mixing. I feel that I 

 am in the best society when 1 am with 

 lettuce. It is in the select circle of 

 vegetables. — Contributed. 



Lettuce, like conversation, requires a 

 great deal of oil to avoid friction and keep 



the company smooth; a pinch of attic | 



salt, a dash of pepper, a quantity of mus- | 



tard and vinegar by all means, but so I 



mixed that you will notice no sharp I 



contrasts, and a trifle of sugar. |,
