•>tr«U. I hare mp notion* about oook-

“Iam glad tom eo fin* an asparagus
Id. Few of our people know anpthing

gtoald see a very sharp knife in eutting
il, ud always cut it on* ineh below the
lorim* of the gtonnd. Mow, as the
thoois an coming up ao thick all over the
btdyon cannot use the hoe, dreaa the bed
with nit or brine, which will kill the
mb and free*, without injury to the
ghat, n it ie a marine plant. There is
no farther culture needed thia season."
■Vow, please tell me how pou eook it.”
■When I want asparagus for itself,
with its peculiar rich flavor, I out it be
fore any part of the stem begins to hard-
on, wash it dean, and drop it into boiling
Thirty minute* will aufllee to boil
r. I And there ia no vegetable
that require* as much salt in oooking,
Whan the a talks are boiled tender, I drain
of th* water and spread them over soft
light-bread toast, previously pnpared in
a drallow dish, eni} season with bntter,
popper, and sometimes with a tittle wal
nut catlap, or aome of the savory sauoes
bat when I want pure asparagus, I use
■otking but pepper and aalt, and I make
a meet delicious soup of it. As you know,
the foundation of ail good soups most be
ueat of some kind. I prefer a good fat
ehickep to oook with aaparagna. Cnt the
chicken up, and to one good-si red chicken
add one quart of naparagus, out in halt
inch piece*; add blaok pepper, aalt, and
a tablespoonful of butter, with auoh Aa
ron as my family may like. Sometimes
I add catoupe, with a little pure wine.
You know I mak* my own wine, and know
it ii pure. Bat, to my taste, there can be
DO improve—sot cm th* asparagus flavor;
‘Tour beans are looking flat, consider
iag the chilly night* early ia the month.
What varieties have you 7”
"I have the large Lima and Carolina
pol* butter, th# aaparagna and hottteteift,
or u tba paopl* about bar* oall it th# fat
km polo a caps, and I assure you that
among th* naw beans introduced tba last
twenty year*, there is not a baaa to
pan with th* fat horu. It is immsusly
productive, tender and delicious. Th*
bah varieties, are th* turtle coup, end
th* black and whit* was. I find th* pods
of th* turtle soup bean oookad, make as
paragus soup very nioe. The pods of the
*u beam at* -nearly transparent, and
vhta boiled tender mak* a beautiful and
dalMensdiah. Uaathaprong ho*freely
between the row* of boons, and around
tha poles, and leave th* Ant pods
•ppoar for aaod. Do not allow any vines
or boahts to mature the bean, that you
*hh to (continue producing th* green
fruit; it will cheek their bearing. Jadg
iog from th* color of th#'leave*, yon
bare Hurd varieties of beets.”
“Yea, the beet is a gnat favorite of
toiea, and I am trying soma naw varieties.
Thera are the old long end turnip blood
