FLOWERS BRING MONEY. HERE IS AN INDUSTRY WORTH WHILE FOR WOMEN TO PURSUE. A Young Washington Woman Tells About Her Success in Cultivating Roses and Violets—They Require Little Labor and Bring Large Returns. "Flower culture in a small way can be made to pay even by an amateur who chooses to pursue it in a painstaking and intelligent way," said a young woman. "Five years ago I bought a little farm near Anacostia, called it 'Rose Acres,' and started in merely for amusement's sake with a few rose bushes and some other plants. I love flowers dearly, and the labor I expended upon them was well repaid by the pleasure of it, but after a while I found that it would produce money also. So I planted more and more, until at present I have between three and four thousand rose bushes of the choice varieties. A skilled gardener told me the other day that my collection of hybrid perpetuals is probably the finest in this country. On the day before Decoration Day I picked and sold 5,000 roses from my own place. "I am extravagantly fond of roses, but violets are more profitable. On the day before Christmas I picked and sold 3,200 violets at two cents apiece; that is $64 worth. They were worth the highest price then, but they never bring less than one cent apiece. To raise them is quite easy. I have $20 glass sashes under which the violets bloom all winter long. In May I have a lot of fresh ground plowed and prepared, and in it I plant all my violets, taken from beneath the sashes for the purpose. Then I simply take up the sashes and cover the newly-planted violets with them and the work is done. In October they begin to bloom, and continue all through the winter, so that I can pick them every day and send the flowers to market." ALWAYS A MARKET. All of my violet plants come from one little pot that I bought at the Center market five years ago. They are made to multiply by dividing the roots, so that a single plant takes up in the spring will supply a score or more. I sell my flowers by sending them to the florists in Washington or very often in New York. By the end of July the tiny tree, known on the islands as the fly tree, has attained its full size, being then about three inches high, but a perfect tree in every particular, much resembling a delicate coral branch. Pods appear on its branches as soon as it arrives at its full growth; these ripen and drop off in August. Instead of containing seeds, as one would naturally suppose, these pods have from three to six small, hard worms upon their interior. The pod soon shrivels up in the hot sun and bursts open on about the third day after becoming detached from the parent stem. The little worms roll out and bury themselves in the sand, and after undergoing the change incident to all caterpillars become flies, which, when the proper time comes, bury themselves in the ground to furnish nourishment for another ministure "fly tree." Dr. Martinisque, of the Royal institute, who has received several boxes of these flies upon which he has made repeated experiments, gives a long scientific explanation for the seeming impossibilities attributed to this insect, which is, at best, wholly unsatisfactory to the general reader, even though his coworkers in that branch of science may consider it explanatory and conclusive.—Cor. St. Louis Republic. Something About Coal. It makes the present generation smile to read the accounts which have come down to us concerning the prejudices which were formerly entertained against certain articles which are of every day consumption. For instance, it is said that when coal was first used in England the prejudice against it was so strong that the house of commons petitioned the king to prohibit the use of the "noxious" fuel. A royal proclamation having failed to abate the nuisance, a commission was issued to ascertain who burned coal within the city of London and its neighborhood, to punish them by force for the first offense, and by the demolition of their furnaces if they persisted in transgressing. A law was finally passed making it a capital offense to burn coal in the city, and only permitting it to be used by forges in the vicinity. It is stated that among the records in the tower of London a document was found according to which a man was hanged in... ply take up the sashes and cover the newly-planted violets with them and the work is done. In October they begin to bloom, and continue all through the winter, so that I can pick them every day and send the flowers to market. ALWAYS A MARKET. All of my violet plants come from one little pot that I bought at the Center market five years ago. They are made to multiply by dividing the roots, so that a single plant taken up in the spring will supply a score or more. I sell my flowers by sending them to the florists in Washington or very often in New York. Prices are higher in New York, so that it usually pays to express them on. “There is always a market for flowers and there is never any difficulty in disposing of them. Any florist is glad to buy them if they are good ones—and in prime condition. Those which I send to New York are delivered early the next morning. I expressed some thither originally on speculation and I got immediate replies praising their quality and asking for more. The violets must be picked always in the afternoon, because otherwise they lose their perfume. Then they must be brought into town in the evening for shipment. “My greatest success is with sweet pease, which most people do not get along very well with in this latitude. I get the very finest possible seed to begin with. From June to August I pick very nearly 4,000 sweet pea blossoms daily, and they sell for fifty cents a hundred, so that they are really the most profitable of my flowers. They require but little care. I plant the seeds in the spring in open ground, about four inches deep, and as the plants grow the earth is kept hilled up around them. Then posts are stuck in along the rows with strings arranged so that the vines are trained upon them. I had one-sixteenth of an acre set out with sweet pease, and it brought in a clear $200 from the sale of the blooms. GROWING DAHLIAS. “Another flower I am very successful with is the single dahlia, which is very much handsomer than the double dahlia, you know. I plant the bulbs, which I propagate myself, the last of May, and the plants begin to flower about the last of August, keeping on until frost. I manage to keep them going for some time later than would otherwise be possible by lighting fires on cold nights at the ends of the rows. In this way I get them over the first frosty spell, after which there is usually a season of quite warm weather, so that frequently my dahlias are blooming beautifully up to the end of November. I try to make the flowers I grow alternate, so that when one sort stops blooming another begins. My violets are flowering from the last of September to the end of April; then come the roses through the summer, and the sweet pease, with dahlias in the fall and violets again until spring. You can perceive that my way of growing flowers does not make necessary any large investment in green-hibit use of the “noxious” fuel. A royal proclamation having failed to abate the nuisance, a commission was issued to ascertain who burned coal within the city of London and its neighborhood, to punish them by force for the first offense, and by the demolition of their furnaces if they persisted in transgressing. A law was finally passed making it a capital offense to burn coal in the city, and only permitting it to be used by forges in the vicinity. It is stated that among the records in the tower of London a document was found according to which a man was hanged in the time of Edward I for no other crime than having been caught burning coal. It took three centuries to entirely efface the prejudice.—Texas Siftings. The Hand Kiss. The kiss of the hand is undoubtedly ancient, and therefore is not derived from that of the lips, but probably the converse is true. The hand kiss is loosely asserted to be developed from servile obeisances in which the earth, the foot and cheek succeeding in order of time and approach to equality of rank. But it is doubtful if that was the actual order, and it is certain that at the time when hand kissing began there were less numerous gradations of rank than at a later stage. Kissing of the hands between men is mentioned in the Old Testament, also by Homer, Pliny and Lucian. The kiss was applied reverentially to sacred objects, such as statues of the gods, as is shown by ancient works of art, and also among numerous etymologies by that of the Latin word “adoro,” and it was also metaphorically applied by the inferior or worshiper kissing his own hand and throwing the salute to the superior or statue.—Popular Science Monthly. California’s Gold Treasure. Never in any other country has a change in the political dominion been followed so promptly by so marvelous an increase of wealth and population, of productive industry and general intelligence. Never did a province repay new masters more liberally for their trouble in its acquisition, nor did any other conquered territory ever receive greater benefit from conquest. The most notable instances in history of triumphant invasions rewarded with great sums of precious metal were those of Babylonia by Cyrus, of Persia by Alexander, of Mexico by Cortez, and of Peru by Pizarro—all populous empires, with wealth accumulated through centuries of prosperity. Yet not one of them yielded to its conquerors, within a generation, so much treasure as did desolate California to the Americans. John S. Hittell in Century. The Fly Had the Nerve. Allan Forman, the publisher of The New York Journalist, went out one day not long ago to take lunch with a friend. This friend had a glass eye, a calamity Mr. Forman knew nothing about. When they had finished their meal they walked up to the cashier’s desk to settle. As she In this way I get them over the first frosty spell, after which there is usually a season of quite warm weather, so that frequently my dahlias are blooming beautifully up to the end of November. I try to make the flowers I grow alternate, so that when one sort stops blooming another begins. My violets are flowering from the last of September to the end of April; then come the roses through the summer, and the sweet peace, with dahlias in the fall and violets again until spring. You can perceive that my way of growing flowers does not make necessary any large investment in greenhouses or otherwise. Of course there are some expenses. I have two men to help me, though one of them I should have to keep anyway for other purposes. There is a great deal in the proper packing of flowers for market. "For example, violets must be placed in bunches in pasteboard boxes, with waxed paper folded loosely around them. They must not be touched with water, because to do so will take away their sweetness. I consider my own flower growing enterprise as only begun thus far; some day I hope to become a millionaire by selling violets and sweet peace. At all events there is money in the business, properly pursued, and more women ought to go into it."—Washington Star. Can This Be So? "Nothing wearies a railroad traveler more than a straight track," says an old railroad man. "Any road with fifty miles of straight track would be shunned for one with three or four curves in that distance. I know legions of people who put themselves out to go by roads which wind and curve and give a new bit of scenery every few minutes."—Detroit Free Press. It is a fact not generally known that Missouri furnishes better cavalry horses than any other state in the Union. The Missouri horse is sturdy and short backed, and is now much in demand by cavalry officers. A Vegetable Fly. One of the most curious natural productions of the West Indies is the famed vegetable fly, an insect about the size and color of a drone bee, but without wings. In the month of May it buries itself in the earth and begins to vegetate. By the beginning of June a sprout has issued from the creature's back andulous empires, with wealth accumulated through centuries of prosperity. Yet not one of them yielded to its conquerors, within a generation, so much treasure as did desolate California to the Americans. John S. Hittell in Century. The Fly Had the Nerve. Allan Forman, the publisher of The New York Journalist, went out one day not long ago to take lunch with a friend. This friend had a glass oye, a calamity Mr. Forman knew nothing about. When they had finished their meal they walked up to the cashier's desk to settle. As the gentleman was paying the checks the newspaper man noticed a fly calmly, coolly and deliberately walking across the ball of his friend's eye. That individual seemed not in the least disturbed, and when Forman spoke to him about it he said, "Oh, that's nothing." Forman naturally astonished, said in reply, "Well, by gracious, you must have a nerve." "Oh, no," answered his friend, "it's the fly that has the nerve."—Arkansaw Traveler. The waltz had its beginning in Germany, and thence was taken to France, shortly after which it was introduced into England. Hungary was the birthplace of the galopade or galop, and from Poland came the stately polonaise or polacca and mazourka. The little two storied house at Ansolo, Italy, where Robert Browning and his sister lived when the poet's last book, "Asolando," was written, has been marked with a white marble slab bearing a suitable inscription.
