HOWELL ACCEPTS.

LONDON, Aiis. 4. Howell has accepted a place in the cricket team for Australia.

The evei'-increasing scarcity and cost of firewood and coal has turned many land-owners' attention to th* feasibility of growing their own supplies. Nearly every farm has a certain amount of poor land. A go«<l idea is to plant this up with pintist insignis. The trees grow rapidly, and can be used for firewood aboiit the sixth year. /Ihe wood, if kepr, dry, makes splendid firewood, an<! burns brightly without sparks. If 1000 trees to the acre are planted, starting «t the sixth year these maybe thinned down to 100 to the aero by the twentieth year, and you will still'have an asset worth £200 per acre for timber.
