We have received from the publishers through Mr W. Park, the April number of the Windsor Magazine. It is chock full of interesting tales, articles and poetry, while the illustrations are as well done as usual, and we could wish for nothing better than that. On May 20th Abraham and Williams will hold the fifth sale of Mr E. D. Knight's horses on the farm, Pahiatua. Of all the flowers that bloom in the ?prmg, those of the "'bulb.family" are the most beautiful and most popular. The cultivation of bulbs has become quite a line art and it is not uncommon to hear that extravagant prices even up to £100 have been paid for a specially choice variety. The TJ.F.C. A. taking advantage of the expert kno wled ge of severa members of their staff have succeeded in securing one of the choicest assortments of Narcissi. Hyacinths, Crocus, lulips, Freesias, Ixias,"etc. ever offered m the colony. Gardeners who desire to replenish flower beds cannot do better <than inspect the stock on hand at the Uixlted FAmrEKs' Co-Op. Association, Palmer-stem North. Assortments made up from os and upwards, and sent post free to any address . - Every dog will have his day, And life its ups and downs, The face may wear a smile to-day. To-morrow perhaps a frown; When things run smooth we little guess What we may yet endure. As coughs and colds, 'tis then we bless Woods' Geeat Peppekmixt cure.
