DAFFODIL CULTURE.

I The following interesting hints on daffodil culture are taken from a paptr read by Mr P Birr at the Royal Hortic ultural Society of Victoria : JI Very little need be said on the subject, although much has been written and directions in numerable given how to grow tho daffo dil, If you have a cool bottom to your soil you have the first requisite ; if yon have not this then y©u have t© watch, or you may have to renew your bulbs fre* quently. As an amateur, with soil hav ing a cool bottom, I would take all the enjoyment I could out of my daffodils with the least amount of labour. In other words, as long as I could get good floweis I would not disturb the bulbs. If tbe bottom was not cool, then I would lift the bulbs annually. Strong bulbi and good soil will give you large flowen and rapid increase. There is much diff ; erence of opinion as to the depth you | should plant. In a general way you I come at this by placing three bulbson top of each other, and the bottom bulb repre sents the d pth to plant; but this, while a safe general rule, is by no means hard and fast ; for example, you would plant deeper in a light soil than you would in a heavy soil ; but in a hot climate like Australia deeper planting may be better than in a colder climate, 'ibat you have to fin J out. Manure is decidedly objectionable, especially stable manure. Cow dung is found by tbe Dutch bulb growers the best manure on their sandy soils. You cannot, however, take the practice of ] utch bulb growers as « model: their sandy soil is full of water always in motion, and consequently al ways sweet. The safe&t manure is bone meal, fcuppose your ground to be poor and dry, I would advise to give, say, at the rate of 40 to 50 loads of manure to the acre, and then crop it with vegetables such as potatoes, cabbage, or, in email gardens, lettuce, several crops. Thfs w'll take the stimulus out of the soil, and the manure will remain as a holder of moisture. In England, for example, a man who manures his soi! poorly suffers in a dry season, and if very hot gets perhaps no crop at all. A farmer who manures freely seldom misses having a good crop. In the one case the soil is so dry thfre is no root action, in the other moisture keeps up growth. Thereiore a light soil for daffodils will need to be more sharply looked after than a heary or medium soil. In lifting daffodils, take them up when the leaves are still yellow, and before they are dried up. Y< v then catch them with the old roots still fresh ; these you cut off, as also the top leaves, and store the bulbs in a cool airy, and dry place, thinly spread out, and here they may remain till the ground is in condition to receive the bulbs. Never wrench the young bulbs off, but wsit till they drop from their mothers, cr till they can be removed without breaking either the base of the mother bulb or the child. "

THR FAIR RENT BILL.

The Otago Daily Times Wellington correspondent thus summarises the Gov ernment's Fair Rent Bill, which has the Hon. Mr Duncan's name attached to it, was circulated lately. Its provisions seem to ba of a far reaching nature. Fair Rent is defined as follows:—(1) In the case of Agricultural or pastoral land such a rent as a tenant asing or cultivate ing in a husbandry like manner, can fair. ly be expected to produce from the land over and above (») the necessary cost of cultivation and production, and also (b) a reasonable interest on the necessary capital invested in stock and working plant, and also (c) the reasonable main tenance of himself and his family, or of such of th m as are living and being maintained on the land ; (2) in the case of town and suburban or village land such a rent as a tenant can fairly be ex peeled to pay, having regard to its site, buildings, and business advantages, if let for business purposes, for which it is best adapted, and its site, buildings, and resi dential advantages it let for purposes o! residence. " Land" means land of every description, by whom so ever vested. Provision is made for the appointment of boards. In fixing the fair rent the board shall consider— (1) The quality and situation of the land ; (2) its acceßa to markets ; (3) the present and pro bable future cost of production and price of produce; (4) the state of (fid© and the price of commodities; (5) gene rally all such other considerations as the board deems equitable.

PLANTEKOA IT CLARES— T> KAD the following Testimonials, and Judge for yourself ? 11 THE DOCTOR SURPRISED AT THE IMPROVE MENT.'' Richmond Street, Peton -, September 28 5 1899 The Proprietors of •' Planfekoa.' Sire, —For some time past I have been a martyr to Indigestion, Chronic Liver j Trouble, and General Debility. For days at a time I used to be in agony with pain in the region of the stomach, and alt the medicines 1 tried gave me no relief. I was attended by the doctor for some timf, with no permanent result. Being advised to take your Botanic Remedy, I am pleased to say I acted on this advice, and One Bottle has made a complete change in me. My friends (the doctor included) are all remark ing about the wonderful improvement in my appearance, and I cm honestly recommend Planfekoa to all who suffer as I have done. Yours sincerely, MRS J. SMITH. Got his Thumb jammed in the door of the Guard's Van, but •• Plantekoa" Oint menb healed it in & Fortnight. Taita, October 15,1899 Proprietors " Plantekoa." Dear Sirs, —I am writing to inform you that I have used your Plantekoa Ointment with most gratifying results. About- fire months ago I had the misfortune to get my hand caught in the door of the guard's ran at the Lower Hutt Railway htation. My thumb was badly crushed, and in a few hours it was terribly swollen and as black as my hab. Seme of my friends stated that it> would be necessary to have my thumb taken off, and I thought nryself that I would require surgical aid. Having your Plantekoa Ointment in the House (we always keep it), I had my thumb bandaged with it, continu ing the application for several days. The retsvilt was astounding In a fortnight it was completely healed, and as Bound as it was before the accident. It is with pleasure I send you this note that other sufferers may be induced to try Plantekoa, Yours truly, WILLIAM WHITTINGTON Ask your Chemißt or Storekeeper for it* Agents—AUBT3ALBOTANICCO., East St. and Carson k Co, Tanored Street "Each Ingredient ÜBGdm » %£*£ -LANE'S"* 62^' GRcAiyIEO of God LiveivOil is of Perfect Quality.
