THE GRANT HOUSE changes land
lords next Monday. N. !. Bliss &
Brother retire and Henry Watner takes
possession. The house will be the
gamer by the change. Mr.. Watner
comes from Depere where he took
charge of hotel Of only medium, and
raised it to high reputation. Here he
will take charge of a hotel Of fair rep
utation, and expects to raise it still
higher. And from his success in De-
pere, an account Of which has preced-
ed him through the press of that place,
he has good reason to believe he will
be equally successful in the Grant
House. A good public house is essen
tial to the good reputation of any place.
And the people of Kenosha will feel
to make Mr.. Watner welcome as one
of their number and the landlord of
the Grant House.

2. c. W. Co.-Owing to some dis
crepency between the old charter of
the Park City Water Co. and the new
articles of association it has been de-
cided by that organization to take a

is expected that an organization will
be completed this week and active op-

project seems to meet with the general
appreciation of the citizens, and shares
OF stock are readily taken by all classes.

down by the cold spell in March, o,
the strong blighting winds. We
nave seen some people throw fur.
row of earth over them on the an.
proach of frost, and afterwards re-
move the earth with the hands, but
it is laborious operation and only
high prices will repay the cost.
Tomatoes, melons, and cucumbers
can be fertilized in the bank and the
seed should beplanted on the south
side of the bank, which should be
raised on the north side for the pro-
lection of the young plants.
An Irishman will put pinch of
hogs hair with every potato cutting;
as we have no hogs hair handy, cover
the cuttings with pine straw, having
first scattered the fertilizer over them
and then bank up. 1t is too early
this month to plant Lima beans and
other pole beans, they are too suscep-
tlble to cold and damp.
Rotted leaf mould is a good ferti-
llzer for water melons. There is
money in growing water melons if
they arelwell handled and shipped at
the proper time. The northern peo-
pie do not appreciate this fruit until
hot weather. sets in and many of our
growers have lost heavily by getting
them in market during cold spell.
Inc most successful shippers have in
formed us that they sold best Just
before the 4th of July. Few people
have made money but many have
Iost it, by growing radishes, lettuce, +
egg plants and other small vegetables
SaSk tosthe standaru crops we
nave mentioned and if you want to
try others, plant lightly as trial
only.
Tomatoes can be protected on ap-
proach of cold by sticking a palmet
to leaf on the north side. Sugar
cane, cassava and corn can be plant
ed this month in South Florida. Sow
Guinea grass seed, but do not set
out plants of this grass before April.
Ii figs are starting to grow put
out cuttings as, also, cuttings OF
grapes, pomegranates and guavas.
The orange grove should be plowed
and tertilized, removing all dead and
decayed limbs from young trees
They will commence to put out
new growth and are more liable to
be injured between this and the 10th
of March than at any other time
during the season. 1t is good time
to set out orange trees. We do not
approve OF budding the trees the
same year they are set out. Allow
them to take firm hold and become
vigorous before budding. The buds
may be put in, however, in October
and allowed to remain dormant un-
til the following spring, when the
tree can be cut back to start the bud.
Tobacco seed should be sowed
this month.
