Bet out tho roots about a foot apart.
In tho fall cover with a layer of fer
tilizer at least bIx inches deep, and
in tho spring this is forkod into tho
soil. Tho difference bctwoen largo
and small asparagus Is In tho amount
of fertilizer used, A bed of asparagus
makes n nlco hedg between lota in

bo moved for years, but it muat bo cul
tivated. Salt Bhould bo used genorousJy in
tho spring, as it lo a marine plant nnd
needs salt to nourish It Tho water
from tho ico cream freezer may bo
usod with good effect If sprlnklod on
to tho asparagus bed.
During tho first year tho bed will
need cultivation several times; after
that only in tho spring boforo tho
shoots start and in the fall a thick
coat of fertilizer.
A hundrod roots will produce
onough asparagus to supply a family
of six with all tho asparagus needed.

Clumsy Compliment.
Ho was a flattoror, but a clumsy

"Dearest," ho whispered, leaning
over tho music rack, "your teeth aro
llko piano keys."
Freezing him with nn icy glance,
sho turnod on hor bool. "Sir, how
daro you Insult me."
"Insult you?"
"Yes. insinuate that my teeth nro

another word sho left tho parlor,
leaving him crostfallon and be
wildered. Amid a multitude of projects no

the president asked tho boy how ho
dared to troat tho court in such a
manner. Tho boy scorned as surprised
as tho president, and taking out the
citation from his pocket, read tho
formula inviting him, "Comparaltro
