HISTfi FOB FIBH11BT. Cold frames need, except in settled cold weather, almost daily attention, especially as the warmth of tbe son increases, and the plants are in danger of being started into growth, if airing is neglected. Pruning omitted last fall, 6hoald be attended to now as soon as tbe winter will allow. Grape vines need the first care, and should be prunned long before the bads begin to swell. Currants and gooseberries start early, and ebould be pruned early. A share of tbe parsnips and salsify is usually left in the ground, to be dag in early spring The freezing they receive does not injure them, but makes them more sweet and tender. If thestored supply runs short, tbese may often be dug daring a thaw, and bring a good price. The varieties of strawberries and raspberries eo recently offered that they may be regnrled as new, are so many, that one may well be puzzled in making a selection. The claims made by those offering tbe new kinds, are presented in the catalogues, which should be studied by those intendirp to plant, whether for home use or market. The market and the neighborhood have both to be considered . It the market is a distant one, the fruit, whatever other quality it may have, must ba firm enough to reach its destination in good order. 1! there is a local or neighborhood trade a matter quite too often overlooked by growers then a very different class of fruits may be grown. The stored crops, whether in cellars or in trenches, may suffer from neglect. Those in the cellar must not be allowed to get too warm, or growth may start. Those in trenche3 may be invaded by field mice and rabbits, or the stock greatly injured by the runniDg in of surface water. Frequent inspection and timely care will prevent such losses. Preparatory work in theway of trellises and other supports may be attended to and. the materials got ready. In the family garden, the best support for raspberries, is a single wire strained - between posts at tbe end of the rows, and we think that the beat grape-vine treliis. is that with horizontal slats 4 feet apart, with upright wires where needed. If one is to set oat small fruit, whether for home nse or market, the sooner the preliminary work of selecting the kindj, and ordering the plants is done, the better. The present is one of those periods, that every now and then occur in fruit culture. There are a number of new varieties of great promise, but they have not been sufficiently tested to warrant planting tbem large. The safe way for tbo?e who grow fruit for sale, is to plant out trial-beds of tbe promising kind?. This will teit their adaptability to the soil, and it the result ia satisfactory, give a stock of plants for setting a plantation. Treatment of Balky Horses. Scientific Farmer. The bad habit of balking of horses generally arrises from an obstinate mind, or, in other words, selfishness, refusing to go from a headstrong disposition, and resolute to have their own way. This is one form of balklness. The second is one which refuses to pull from pure laziness, or stops when tired, and refuses to go any further. The third embraces such horses as are timorous, com bined with a stubborn disposition, and which frequently refuse to pull from fear as well as stubborness or want of courage. Tbese are the different forms of balkiness of horses. But not always is tbe animal so by nature, but very frequently becomes so by ill training and poor driving. Horses may be made balky very easily it too many words are spoken to them at one time; sucn as, "Get up there," "Whoa, back," and so forth, until tbe animal gets excited and fin aliy loses courage. There are many differ en t ways for breaking balky horses; but one thing must be borne in mind to speak kindly to the horse, and show him that he is in the control and power of man, and has to obey; but do not abnse him. Now, when you ara to commence to break a balky horse one that is sufficiently gentle to know what is wanted of him put on your harness and bitch him up to anything you desire, and give him the commanding word to go ahead. If he goes, you have nothing to do or say, but let him go ahead and do the desired work; bat if he refuses to go any further, unhitch him immediately, take all the harness oil except the bridle; take a rope the side of - a wash line and fasten it to the bit on the right hand side and pull it through the ring of the left under the chop; pull his head round to his left side and slip the rope under his tail like a crupper and fasten it, keeping his head rather close to his side. Now all is Teady, so let him go; he will of course travel like a dog after his tail, for he can travel no other way. Take a long whip and make him go if he refuses, but speak: kindly to him all the time. Never lose your temper but govern it. The horse will travel round in a circle until he begins to sweat and grow languid and finally falls down; now immediately loose the rops and let him up; talk kindly to him now ana caress him. Now, remember the work is only half dore. Reverse tbe position of the line the same as before, and start him oft again, and let him go till he falls down the second time; loosen the line immediately and let him get up; now hitch him up, and my word for it he will pull as he never pulled before. He now is convinced that he is entirely in the control and power of man, and baa to obey; his stubborn spirit is converted and his pride humbled, and you may de pend on it that he will bother you no more. Balba for the Wladowa. "Winter Greeneries at Home'' has the fol lowing on bulbs tor windows: Tbe hard v or "Holland Bulbs" hyacinths. narcissus, etc , are the common resort for winter bloom when everything else has been given up in despair. They are doubtless the best plants that can be selected for a cool room with windows to tbe north. Indeed, the beauty of their flowers Is more or less impaired by exposure to a high temperature and strong sunshine. As tbey have a great variety of colors and are so easily accommodated, vou will expect from me "the whata and the hows" of their special treatment. Hyacinths may be grown in wet sand, or crave!, or moss, or in water, out mucn oevter in pots of earth not less than six inches deep. In a pot eight inches deep and wide, several may be brought together say three of different colors. The single flowered var ieties are, in some respects, better than the double. For the soil, take a sandy loam. with one third of well rotted manure. For a succession of flowers through the winter. do the potting with intervals of a week or two, or pot all the bulbs at once' and bring them to the light at different times. Set the bulb so as to leave about half of it above the mil when pressed down, and nearly an inch between the surface of the soil and the rim of the pot. After saturating thoroughly with water, take the pots to a dark cellar, or cover .them outdoors with anything which will. without icjariog the buds, effectually exclude light and heat this being the condition necessary for the proceess of rotting. If the roots are found in the bsttom of the pots at tbe end of six or eight weeks the time ordinarily required the plants are ready to grow upward, and may be taken at once to tbe light. Another month will probably suffice for the appearance of the llowers. Aa the growth advances water Ireely, but not to the extent of soaking. When the flowers fade cut away the stalks, but let the leaves grow until they turn yellow, when you may allow the bulbs gradually to became entirely dry. Another season they may ba forced into bloom the same way, but with less st-

isfacrory results, and tbey may better be used in the outside garden. When two or more of tbe bulbs are to be 1 flowered in the same pot, it is important that they come into bloom together. To maEe su-e of this, all the bulcs that are to be used in this manner are sometimes set out in a box of sandy earth, and this box kept in the dark and treated just as directed for pits containing a .single bulb. When tbe bulbs have formed abundant roots, those may be selected that are equally advanced as to the bud, and carefully potted. Their cultivation in glasses is not commended, for the bulbs become quite worthless afterward, and the flowers can hardly be as perfect as by tbe more natural process; but perhaps you will like to try it for the sake of variety, if not fashion. Select colored glasses, keep the water barely in contact with tbe bottom of the bulb, changing it occasionally, and let the rooting be done in some dark and cool place. Or, first root tbe bulbs in clean sand in the manner described for pot culture, and then, having washed the sand from the roots, transfer them to the glass. For another expeiiment nearly fill a gluts jsr or other dish with clean pebbles, set the bulb on the top.pourin water.and give tbe came treatment as with the ordinary glass. A few drops of hartshorn (the aqua ammonia of the druggist), or other fertilizer added to the water, will be of some ad vantage. Hyacinths will grow and bloom even inm-rsi closely packed In a vase or barging la?ket and kept sufficiently wet. As, in all these cases tbe generous bulb must take tbe place of soil iu supplying" capital required, do you wonder that it is won forced into bankruptcy. .The olfcer Holland bulbs require the same kind of soil, the came preparatory process of rooting, and the same general c nd .lions and treatment as the hyscinth. 'i'uey need, however, much less pot-room, varying somewhat with the kinds. After rijweriue, the supply of water should be somewhat diminished." but not entirely witbdrawn until the leaves have bad time to ripen. Then the bulbs may be dried off and removed from tbe pots; but the rare'esns and crocus are (aid to do tetter if plunged in the garden beds, and allowed to remain in tbe same pots for two or three years, or until they have became so crowded as to need dividing and repotting. Ol tbe tulips only a few kinds are recommended as suitable, among which are the Due Von Thol and Tournesol. . A General J arable. ICinclnnatl Gazette.) Let us see.

To the Editor of the Sentinel: Sib I furnish herewith, on the important subject of s'awerage, one item from the Indl" anapolis Journal ot January 30, 1879, and another from the seventh annual report of the managers of the Indiana Reformatory Institution for Women and Girls, for the year ending October 31, 1S73, with a request that they be published for the information of both citizens and legislators. My home stead is in the immediate neighborhood of the proposed janction of the Reformatory tewerags with "Market street sewer." on the east end of Ohio street, at State avenue, where the Deaf and Damb Institution sew erage also connects, and from thence meanders through a poor cement pipe drain to Arsenal avenue, thence up hill on Arsenal avenue to Market street, and thence west on Market street to Pogne's run. where it debouches without any farther sewerage out of the city. Wm. Willabd. Following are the "items' referred to in Mr. Willard's communication: Indianapolis Journal. The case of tbe United States against the board of managers of tbe Indiana Female prison has been allowed to remain in statu quo, upon the understanding that the board, thn ugh the governor, would recommeud to the present Legislature, the making of a mi indent, appropriation to construct a sewer, which wonld relieve all cause of complaint. TheCnited States would, of course, pay its part of tbe expense. This is a mutter whlcu concern the resident of this city generally, almost as much as the board of managers or the prison, in thafrthe healthfulness of the city Is involved. All ep'demlcs start from tilth. Daring tbe cold weather the evil is not so perceptible. But summer is coming, aud tbe great nuisance ought to be at once remedied. If the board of managers will use their influence nod urge this matter, as t hey can and oughi, they can get relief. It is not known that tney have as yet taken any Blep in this direction. Un less the board does take action In the premises, the United States will prosecute the pending case promptly to a final determination. Extract From Report of Board of Manager. We have, however, caused a careful survey and estimate to be made1, as to the best line of connection and probable cost of constructing such a sewer, and believe that the best line can be made connecting with Market strret, and the cost Is estimated at about 14,000. We trust, with such a connection, satisfaction would be given to the neighborhood, and the convenience and comfort ot the family be promoted. . Ladles, Ielieai aad Feeble.

' COMMERCIAL There has been considerable activity notice able in the general markets since onr last weekly review, and prices, as a general rule, have been well raaiutalned. GROCERIES. Tills branch of trade has held its own during the entire week, the demand has not been heavy, but has been steady. Quotations, with but few exceptions, are about the same as last week. dry ooons. Merchants are preparing for heavy spring slocks, and the counters of our wholesale men will undoubtedly show the best selected stock cf goods that has been In the city for years past. Business during the past week has been only fair. The New York Bulletin or Saturday, in reviewing that market, says: The market was charactrii!"d by a fair degree of animation, and while staple goods were In continued request at first bands, there wusa further improvement in the demand for spring fabrics, in which printed calicoes, ginghams, dress goods, hosiery, etc., participated. The jobbing trade has, us a rule, oeen sliiKgish, but some of the larger Arms who cultivate a package business were enabled to report considerable sales of staple cotton goods, prints, department goods, etc. Cotton (foods. The cotton goods market has been fairly active, and plain and fancy cottons were distributed to a liberal aggregate amount by agents and package jobbers. Prloes are w'llhont material change, and firm, as a rule, at current quotations, many of which are lower than ever before. Brown and bleached goods are certainly remarkably cheap at present prices, and that some of the nn-t. popular makes will apnreclate in the near future hardly admits of a doubt. Agent' stocks are well In hand, and orders for goods to arrive re in many cases taken "at, value" only. Prints There has been a fair though irregular demand for medium and light fancy prints at agents' bands, and cambrics and other wide prints were moderately active. Shirtings coutinue in steady request, and staple prints pinks, etc..) are rather more sought for Dy interior buyers. tilnsbams.
