lie made nearly a score of trips 

 to this country. Then he spent a 

 couple of years in an American 

 seed house and nursery to gain a 

 closer acquaintance with the de- 

 mands of the trade here, and then a 

 short time ago stepped into the opening 

 offered by the resignation of Mr. Samp- 

 son, foreign traveler for Peignaux & 

 Lorin, Angers, France, successors to the 

 well-known firm of Andre Leroy & Co. 



Mr. Goeppinger had called upon prac- 

 tically every nurseryman, plantsman and 

 seedsman of consequence in this country, 

 and was held in high regard by all with 

 whom he had dealings. 



MOLES. 



An English exchange says that a fair- 

 ly light soil is one in which moles can 

 work freely. This being so, the Avarv 

 little animals easily work around the 

 traps set, or make fresh runs. They are 

 quick to detect and avoid danger, and 

 consequently few are caught in traps 

 where the latter are continually in use. 

 If one has sufficient patience it will pay 

 to carefully watch the ground, and de- 

 tect new runs. The latter is fairlv easy 

 work if the soil is studied a little. ' Hav- 

 ing found a new run, watch it closely at 

 the end most recently disturbed, and it 

 is probable that, ere long, a slight move- 

 ment of the soil will be noticed; it will, 

 however, be a very slight one, but di- 

 rectly it is seen stamp with all the 

 promptitude and force you possess on 

 the spot where the movement was ob- 

 served. This will consolidate the soil, 

 and prevent the mole escaping, but with 

 a spade ready at hand, the soil must be 

 dug out, and probably with the first 

 spadeful the little burrower will be 

 thrown out, when, of course, it can be 

 readily dispatched. A good time to 

 watch for moles working is after a 

 Bhower, or between 1 and 4 o'clock in 

 the afternoon. Patience, a quick eye, 

 and promptitude are essentials to suc- 

 cess in catching moles by this method, 

 but the method is a good one, neverthe- 

 less, especially where traps have failed. 



The Review will send Herrington's
