These baby planets are not al ways round, as planeta are generally supposed to be, bnt are known to be in all sorts of qneer shapes. Some are square, others octagonal; some irregu lar and many cornered, while one is oc casionally met with which is smooth as a brick or a cemeut paving stone. Probably you have never heard of a man (or woman either, for that matter) "meeting with" a shooting star in any. of his wanderings. Lei ns see how such a thing might be possible.

At a recent wedding the bride had retired to her dressing room ta don her traveling gown.- Her mother had been dead a. yean or more, 'and she bad had tbe constant care and companionship of her" little sister ever since their afflic tion. The 7-year-old entered the room and went to her sister's chair very thoughtfully. Drawing a letter from the little pocket, she said : . . "Alice, here is a letter to mamma. I have jus written, telling her all about the Wedding, , Will you send it to her?" ,,The elder sister,. a little shocked, re plied - as gently as possible that she couldn't send a letter to mother. . Then tho little due, looking quite bright, said promptly i "Oh, yes, you can, because now you are married, you will be getting a little airl. and when you send for her, ju'st give the - doctor this letter, and he cutf take it to mamma when ne goes lor tne baby." . , . . .

Probably no one variety of fruit has given rise to as much discussion as to Its merits, or wider divergencies of opinion as to Its quality, as the Kleffer pear, says the Orange Judd .Farmw.

The fruit is large and moderate ly long, round, full In the middle, and tapering to both ends. The skin Is a deep, brilliant yellow, and such speci mens as secure sunlight have a ruddy cheek. The stalk is stout and of mod crate length! the calyx open in a medi um, uneven basin. The flesh Is white, a little coarse, and at Its best very Juicy and sprightly, with a decided quince flavor. It. must be carefully ri pened In the dark to attain its best con dition ripening nt the north the last of October and' early In November.

A'sandy loam .will grow ear ly vegetables; a clay loam will not ripen the same vegetables as early by a week or ten days, but the vegetables will ue of better quality and more, of them, hud, the vines will continue, longer In bearing. A thin sandy soil Is best Improved by applying twelve cords of .cow manure' to the acre upon the plowed land and harrowing it. A clay soil on tbe other hand should be given the same amount of long horse ma nure. This mnnare should . be spread over the land and plowed down. After plowing, 'liorrow, then .spread six cords of street dirt and harrow it in. A few years of such treatment with deep plowing fall and spring will soon put the soil in a fine mellow tilth. All gar den land should be plowed, if possible, with three strong horses, in the fall, then cross-plowed m the spring. There Is a vast difference in the yield, of the same land shallow plowed and badly fertilized and deeply- plowed, mellowed: and manured properly.
