Culture or Squash.
Squash requires rich soil with plenty
of well decayed manure. The manure is
plowed in six or eight inches deep and
the land is well burrowed. The hills are
tlx by seven feet apart and a shovelful of
fine manure and a light dusting of Peru
vian grass should be given to each hill.
Three viues arc left to grow in the hills.
The ground is well worked with the plow
while the plants arc young, and after
that with the cultivator and the hoc. As
the vines get to be four or five feet long
the ends are pinched to make the lateral
shoots grow vigorously. As these are the
bearing shoots this is very important. By
this culture 10,000 squashes averag
ing seven pounds each nave been grown
upon one acre. IX larger fruits are de
sired only three or four should be left to
each hill. One thousand hills are made
to the acre. Muskmcllons are grown in
precisely the same way, but the hills are
five feet apart only and the pinching is
done closely to make a compact growth,
which covers the ground.—N. Y. Timet.

Enormous snowflakes are recorded as

in one of the magazines publishes
measurements of single flakes two and a
half inches in length, two and three-
fourths of an inch in length, two and
three-fourths by two and a half and
three inches thick, and even three and a
half and four inches in length. When
melted the largest one yielded sixteen
drops of water, and many gave fourteen
or fifteen drops. The storm was only a
few minutes in duration. These unique
results can be accounted for by the fact
that the temperature was 32.6° Fahren
