GARDENING

Useful Information.

KOTES FOR THE PRESENT MONTH, BY A PROFESSIONAL GARDENER. KITCHEN GARDEN. Sow during the month the last sowing of cabbage, cauliflower, lettuce, winter spinach, to stand in the seed beds over winter, to come in for transplanting in early spring. Onions should be sown as early this month as possible, as it often happens that they are sown too late, and hence dis appointment is suffered, as the first sharp frost lifts them out of the ground. But by sowing early they will have taken suffi cient hold to resist the action of frost. The best varieties are Brown Spanish, Giant Rocco, and Brown Globe. By sow ing in lines they can be thinned out, and transplanted in early spring. The Giant Rocco, treated in the above manner, pro duces immense bulbs, sometimes weighing from 31bs. to 41bs. One of the best for early use, Brown Spanish, also produces an excellent crop when transplanted in early spring. „ _ White Stone and Golden Ball Turnip * should also be sown as early this month as possible, which will keep up a supply of fine tender roots all through the winter and early spring months. Care should be taken not to cover the seeds too deep, as' in nearly all cases disappointment arises from their being covered too deep or not covered at all. Seeds, as a rule, should in no case be covered more than twice their own thickness, except peas, beans, and such large seeds—these from 2in. to 3in. Radish will do well sown this month. FLOWER GARDEN. The principal work will be to collect flower seeds of all the different annuals, &c. Stow them in a dry place. Cuttings should be taken of all flowering plants, uch as geraniums, verbenas, petunias, cupheas, Phlox, Drummoni, &c., and placed in pots or boxes. To ensure suc cess, place about two inches of well-rotted manure mixed with loam in the bottom of the pot or box. Mix good ordinary loam, three parts to sand one part, well together. Fill the balance of your pot or box, putting a light covering of pure sand on the top, in which insert the cuttings. Geraniums cuttings should have little or no water for a week, after being put in, as they are likely to damp off if kept too wet until they begin to color. Verbenas, fuchsia, petunius, &c., must be kept damp and shaded ; but geraniums will root more readily by being placed in the sun. To strike fuchsia cuttings, ver benas, &c., lay some pieces of glass over the top of the box, to keep it air tight, for a week or so after the cuttings are put in. Persons purposing to lay down new. lawns should embrace the first opportunity, as lawns laid , down this month do much bet * ter than when done in spring, as it has the double advantage from the autumn rains and spring showers to give the young grass a thorough hold of the ground be the summer drought set in.

Medical. Advice to mothers.—Are you broken in your rest by a sick child, suffering with the pain of cutting teeth ? Go at once to the chemist and get a bottle of Mrs. WINSLOW’S SOOTHING SYRUP. It will relieve the poor sufferer immediately. It is perfectly harmless ; it produces natural, quiet sleep by reliev ing the child from pain, and the little cherub awakes “ as bright as a button.. It has been in use in America, and is highly recommended by medical men. It is very pleasant to take ; it sooths the child ; it softens the gums, allays all pain, relieves wind, regulates the bowels, and is the best known remedy for dysentry and diarrhoea, whether arising from teething or other causes. Be sure and ask for Mrs. Winslow’s Soothing Syrup, and see that “Curtis and Perkins, New York and London,” is on the outside wrapper. No mother should be without it. Sold by all medicine dealers, at Is. lid.—Depot, 493, Oxford street. "VITTHO is Mrs. WINSLOW? As this VV question is frequently asked, we shall simply say that she is a lady who for upwards of thirty years has untireingly devoted her time and talents as a female physician and nurse, principally among children. She has especially studied the constitution and wants of this numerous class, and, as a result of this effort and practical knowledge obtained in a lifetime as nurse and physician, she has com pounded a SOOTHING SYRUP for Chil dren. It operates like magic, giving rest and health, and is, moreover, sure to regulate the bowels. In consequence of thTs article, Mrs. Winslow is becoming world-renouned as a benefactor of her race. Children certainly do rise up and bless her. Especially is this the case in this city. Vast quantities of the Soothing Syrup are daily sold and used here. We think Mrs Winslow has immortalised her name by this invaluable article, and we sincerely believe that thousands of chil dren have been saved from an early grave by its timely use, and that millions yet unborn will share its benefits and unite in calling her blessed. No mother has dis charged her duty to her suffering little .one, in our opinion, until she has given it the benefit of Mrs. Winslow’s Soothing Syrup. Try it mothors, try it now.— Ladies’ Visitor, New York City.

Business Notices. S3T THIS ADVERTISEMENT SHOULD BE CAREFULLY READ AND RE MEMBERED BY EVERYONE IN TERESTED IN FENCING. THE PATENT OVAL SAMSON FENCE WIRE Has now been before the publie for four years, and during that time 5,000 TONS HAVE BEEN SOLD, Giving very great satisfaction, in proof of which we hold numerous testimonials from well-known colonists ; and the demand is daily increasing to such an extent, that numerous spurious imitations have lately been introduced in the various markets of Australia and New Zealand, for the Bole purpose of damaging the reputation of the Patent Oval Samson Wire. The Samson Wire Was patented and introduced four years ago in Victoria, New South Wales, Queensland, and New Zealand ; and the principal claim set fourth was itsbeingmade Oval to prevent fraud. Yet, in the face of these patents, firms —many of respectable standing—have, for the sake of a paltry commission, lent themselves to the intro duction of various spurious imitations, which render them liable to actions at law, and annoyance and disappointment to the users. We would point out to intending pur chasers that any persen erecting Oval Wire Fences, other than the Patent Oval Sam son, renders himself liable for damages. The Patent Acts on this point are very explicit; therefore, after this notice no excuse can be made. We have had instances brought underour notice where some persons have been so un principled as to mix the Spurious Oval Wire amongst the Patent Oval Samson in order to make a sale, and damage the the reputation of the genuine article. We have a great aversion to take legal proceedings in this matter, but shall be compelled to, in self-defence, unless these practices are at once stopped.
