GARDENING NOTES. By JAMES CARTER & CO. .MORE ABOUT PEAS. Til's Pea is a favourite vegetable in Eng- lish gardejif, from the smaueet to the J-irg- e»t, as a dish of green Fea-s is always wel- come. In attempting to m-ake a selection, tin buyer is often nonplussed, among 60 manv good va.riet.i.es. Once be determines oa the L-la.-m of Pea he is recommended, the cultivator wn pursue the even ienour of his way, and follow our advice. During the •past tw-enty-fiv-e years great strides have jjean made in the early Pea, end social ikinds are now available, for the first picking of the season having very large pods contain- ivug enormous Peas of the fiwaetest marrow- fat flavour. r Pea is one of the most popuiar of vegetables, -and is available in such great variety that the amateur is puzzled how to iEmks a choice. OanUlii Peas succeed bobt <La deeply-dug ground, made firm, aid e; sTiuhed with well-decayed manure, mixed with pieces of turfy soil; but on no account must fresit stable manure b? uved. The aroote readily penetrate into this compcst, ,'iijd the crop will lost much longer in -bear- ing than Trii^n the seed is sown on ground that has Iud no special preparation. It id <tiw Dovertv of the subsoil where the roots .•ire feeding, and when they most need sup- port at the time A.e plants are cropp.aig, tbat causes them to mildew, shrivel up, anti prematurely ripen. A good mefthod of pro- cedure ior «mateurs is as follows: Throw out. the soil to -a depth of 15 inches, and put ;n*o the trench the good material mentioned Ivoove to the depth of 5 inches, then replace 4 inches of soil, made firm. This will etill Jeave about 6 inches below the surface level. The seeds should be sow a in zigzag ,TS' from 2 inches deep in heavy soils to Q inchetj deep in light soils, the individual fc*eds being about 2 inches apart, and <XlN- fullv covered with soil, pressed down by treading with the foot. Too rows should ntn from north to south, so that the whole of the growth may receive full benefit from the sun otherwise nearly all the pods will ii:8 produced on one side. OVER-SOWING. Another cause of failure in Pea growing 0 arises from crowding by over-sowing. All giants thrive better whan they have ample boaee, light, and air in which to develop. With those conditions they give a heavy produce over 6 longer period; while low- growing crop«> placed between stand a bet* rcei' chance. When Peas are rowntod thickly the haulmer sprouting from the individual 600d have not room to expand into the liealthv growth necessary to produce sat*- fectory results. Nevertheless, owing to the depredations of vermin, above and below, it is absolutely needful to sow r-ather bouu- tifully. Peas that reach 2 feet high should be allowed at least 21 feat between rowo, and so on throughout. In proportion, 5 feet aorta* should have a distance of about 6 fe-et. These distances give abundance of .oom for hoeing and keeping tha surface clean; and permit the crope to be gathered i,mith a minimum of injury to the ooulm.. When the plants shoot up 2 inches above 'iie surface, a little earth should b? banker! in ridges near them, and again when they •jre another inch higher. Later on a dtes- aing of short dung laid on the surface—say to the thickness of 4 inches and width of 12 clies on each side of the row-will main- tain the root* in a more uniform condition of moisture than could be realized by any other meona. If water is applied in hot or cu'v weather, it will effectually wash the vi rtues of the manure down to the roots, and greatly «■■«* to extend the cropping period. There must be some'method th the mainer o? watering, iind a good soaK +r once a week :t. belter than a daily dribble.

HELPLESS SCHOONER PICKED UP. The schooner "Maud," bound from the Menai Straits to Belfast, when in the neighbourhood of the North and South Rock Light, off the Irish coast, during the recent stormy weather had her sails blown awav. her main boom smashed, and her bulwarks stove in. She became helpless, but was picked up shortly 'afterwards by the steamer "Dinorwic," bound from lra.rston to Glasgow, and was towed by the "Diuorwic" into Douglas harbour, where she now lies preparatory to undergoing the necessary repairs.

GWYRFAI DISTRICT COUNCIL. THE DRAINAGE OF RHYD-DDU. The monthly meeting of the Council was held on Saturday, Mr Robert Pritc-hard (chairman) presiding. THE ROE WEN PATH. With regard to defending the public rights in respect or the Roewen footpath, Port- dinorwic, it was resolved that any costs borne by the County Council in the matter should be borne by the parish of Llanfairisgaer. LOAN. The Local Government Board wrote sanc- tioning a loan of E780 towards th? cost of the proposed water supply works at Cesarea and Bwlchyllyn. SLAUGHTER-HOUSES. It was reported that nearly fifty buildings were being used as slaughter-houses in the district, and that only a small proportion of them were registered. Th matter was re- ferred to a committee which has already charge of the subject. THE DRAINAGE OF RHYD-DDU. The question of sewering the village of Rhyd-ddu came up for consideration, a dis. cussion taking place as to whether the Coun- cil should itself deal with the portion lying within its district, or participate in tha scheme in which the Carnarvon Town Coun- cil and the Glaslyn R'jral Council were also to join. Mr T. O. Jones (Waenfawr) advo- cated the former course, and said that it did not matter how much money was spent upon the sewering of Rhyd-ddu chey would not be able to prevent the water being polluted.—Mr T. J. Lloyd argued that it would be useless to incur any expense unless they succeeded in preventing the water being polluted.—Mr T. O. Jones: The position of the place is such that you cannot prevent the river being polluted.—Mr Richard Jones (Talysarn) moved that the surveyor should prepare plans with a view to carrying out the work on the lines suggested by Mr T. O. Jones.—The mo- tiou was seconded.—Mr Williams (Rhos- trvfan) took exception to the scheme, which, he argued, would mean throwing money away, so long as the source of the Carnarvon water supply remained where it was. He moved that the work be not done.—Mr Parry (Cesarea) adopted a similar view, contend- ing that the geographical position of Rhyd- ddu was such that to prevent a pollution of th? river was almost impossible.—The Clerk made it clear that the Council was obliged to take some action. The Local Government Board had held an inquiry, and all the facts mentioned that day had been submitted to the inspector.—Mr Richard Jones's proposal was carried by a majority.

HAVE YOU CATARRH? EVERY FOURTH PERSON YOU MEET HAS IT. AN INSIDIOUS AND DAN- GEROUS DISEASE. WORSE THAN BRONCHITIS. Catarrh commences frequently by running at he nose; jet; up inflammation of the mucus membrane of the nose and throat followed by a stopped up feeling in the nose and oropping of mucus in the threat. It partially stops up the air vesicles of the lungs, inflames the bronchial surface, sets up catarrhal bronchitis or catarrhal asthma, accompanied by a dry or loose cough, diffi- culty in breathing, with unpleasant hawk- ing and expectorating. The mucus thus secreted works its way down the alimentary canal to the stomach, catarrh of the stomach and intestines following. It then becomes a peraistent constitutional disease, both dan- gerous and disagreeable leaving the patient very susceptible to cold, and every addi- tional cold aggravates the symptoms until it affects the hearing and "gradually the. sense of smell and taste. VENO'S LIGHTNING COUGH CURE is the most efficient remedy for this disagreeable com- plaint. It acts directly upon the mucus surface, relieves the irritation, clears the bronchial tubes and air vesicles and relieves the stopped up feeling in the nose. It is infinitely superior to any local treatment. It acts constitutionally, clears catarrh thoroughly out of the system: you feel better the first day; you begin to breathe freely through the nose and rest comfortablv at night.

A QUARRYMAN'S DEATH. Mr J. Pentir Williams, the North Car- narvonshire coroner, on Friday, held' an inquest at Bethesda touching the death of Thomas Pritchard, 62 years of age, married. Pritchard was a quarryman at Pantdreiniog Co-operative Quarry. A week ago he. witn his partners, put six gelignite cartridges in a hole in the rock for blasting purposes, and the blast took place on Wed- nesday. He and his partners were drilling a hole for another blast, when the drill broke. The broken piece was removed, and as there were about a couple of hours to wait before the blast could be fired, Pritchard and his mates looked round for something to do. In the meantime Pritchard himself decided to commence clearing away the results of the former blast, and for tll-tt purpose inserted a drill into the old hole. In doing so he must have struck an unexpended cartridge, for there was a terrific explosion. Pritchard being blown six yards away and sustaining fractured limbs and injury to the abdomen, which developed into peritonitis, of which he died on Thursday. A verdict of "Acci- dental death" was returned. Messrs G. J. Williams (Government In- spector), D. G. Davies (solicitor on behalf of the Co-operative Quarries Company), and W. J. Parry (managing director of the quarries) were present at the inquest.

INFLUENZA INCREASING. The influenza epidemic is again spreading over the country. The visitation is of a very prostrating nattire, and the disease is eer- tainlv on the increase. The origin of the disease, or rather the circumstances which bring it about, is as much a mystery as ever. You cannot trifle with influenza. It undermines the nervous system to a greater extent than almost any other disease, and it is Pneumonia that kills, and Pneumonia strikes the man who imagines he has only a mild form of Influenza, and can go about the street as usual. It can hardly be doubted that the prevalence of Chest and Lung Complaints must be ascribed to the baneful influence of Influenza, whose after-effects so frequently take this form. It was a bad day for this country when this malignant scourge first visited our shores. Year after year it has never since failed to revive at its due time. and to extort its tribute of human life. Having observed its ravages, and its dread- ful effects upon the constitution on the occa- sion of ite former visits, we cannot but re- gard its recurrence with much fear, as a great many have not yet. if they ever will, regain their foritier health.

YOUNG WALES IN LONDON. NATIONALITY AND CITIZENSHIP. The annual meeting of the Federation of Welsh Literary Societies in London was held on Saturday evening at Jewin Chapel, Al- dersgate street. Mr Ellis J. Griffith, M.P., presided, and was accompanied by Major Seely, M.P., as well as Mr T. H. V. Idris, L.C.C. (Parliamentary candidate for the Flint Boroughs), and others. Mr Ellis Grnifth, in the course of his speech, said: Here we are, a community far from home, yet able to keep our language and religion and all our national characteristics. Not only have we kept our Nonconformity alive, but its many accessories, such as this Federation of Literary Societies. They ara an important accessory to the welfare of the churciies, and I am glad that you hera are not forgetting the traditions of the old societies at home. We do not merge our. selves in the English life, as is supposed, and every Englishman whose opinion is worth having will praise us for that. The other day I heard Lord Hugh Cecil in Parliament deny the very existence of such a thing as nationality. As far as I understood him he admitted that Britain was an aggregate of four different peoples, but there was no such thing as a nationality peculiar to any of them. I don't pretend to understand him. To me a gathering like this testifies very elo- quently whether we are a separate nationality or not. The critics are asking us, however— "Yes, but what have you Welsh people done?" Well, we have lived, and that is a great thing. They talk sometimes of the survival of the fittest. But whether we are the fittest or not, we have survived, and that is some- thing. For centuries we have lived side by side with the greatest nation and kept alive our language and our national spirit. That is something to be proud of Wuen we know what a great colonising power England is. Though we love our own country with an in- tense love, it only makes our love to the Em- pire the more perfect. That spirit of de- votion to one's own country is perfectly con- sistent with our allegiance to the greater love of an empire. The man who loves Wales best loves the Empire best, and I have always found that the best Welshman was the best citizen. Proceeding, the President said that what these literary societies aspired to was to keep the young people within safe sur- roundings. These societies kept the mind in touch with all that is best in Welsh litera- ture, history, and religion. Every Welsh- man'and Welshwoman there was as much a representative of Wales as any that might be at Westminster. They were looked upon as samples of the bulk of the nation. "The point is," he concluded, "how far in our lives do we give a better name to Wales?" (cheers). A rousing greeting was given Major Seely, M.P., on rising. He said that possibly he owed his invitation to the fact of his being half Welsh. He was proud to dispute Lord Hugh Cecil's opinions as to the spirit of nauonality. He believed that by sticking to local patriotism, if one might dare to call Wales local, they could be more useful to the Empire at large. Possibly Lord Hugh Cecil made the statement because he was wholly English (No, no). What? Was he Welsh too? (laughter and cries of "Yes"). Anv party that can boast of such eloquent speakers as Mr Lloyd George, Mr Ellis Griffith, and others must of necessity become a powerful force. Wales now filled a great controlling part in the destiny of this country, and its love of its own nationality would only enhancs its patriotism to the well-being of the greater Empire. The other day he was reading an account of some of the great bards in the time of Llewelyn ap Gruffydd. One of those writers said that Gruffydd attempted the impossible, and hence he failed. They were not attempting the impossible to-day, but rather following the words and prophecy of another of the bards, who exclaimed:- "Let. us stand firm together, my brethren, for if we are inseparable we shall also be in- superable." (cheers).

THE GREATEST SUCCESS OF MODERN TIMES GEOMKGES Pi LE RAVE P3LLS A MARVELLOUS STORY FROM THE PUBLISHERS OF "TYST A'R DYDD, MERTHYR TYDVIL. Dear Sir,-One of my Sons went out to Canada and settled down, in the neigh- bourhood of Oilsprings, Lambton, Ontario, Some three months ago he wrote home saying he had been on the sick list for several weeks, suffering painfully from Piles. Immediately after receiving his letter I had a supply of your Pills which I forwarded to him. Three weeks ago he wrote home saying that your Pills had done him immense good. Before he had finished one box he was able to start work again. Last night I had another letter from him stating that to all appearances the disease had left him and he was in his usual health again. Having accidentally heard that a man living in the same neighbourhood had been a great sufferer from Piles for over twenty years, my son sought him out, told him of the good he had received from your Pills, and gave him half of the box he had. Within four days the man was jumping with joy from the good effects o your Pills. Having received so much benefit personally, and witnessing their good effects on the man referred to, my son is very anxious that other sufferers may know and receive the same benefit from them as he did himself.
