DEs MoISEs, June IS.
A tornado swept II DUH Central Iowa,
late last night, from the northwest to south
cas-, from 20 miles north of Des Moines.
The town of Grir Tell was struck by it and
half the town is ow in ruins
Account of the first appearance OF the
cyclone do not agree, but il appears that the
deep roaring sound first heard proceeded
from funnel shaped cloud coming from the
southwest and sweeping to the northwest
corne. of the town.
After wiping out the finest portion of the
city it swept towards the college. The
West building was dumped into heap of
faiths and plaster and broken timber.
Buried beneath ii were eight students, all of

injured and one died.

Sr. PAIL lime IL

Telegraphic reports from seventy-five
points in Minnesota, Dakota and Northern
Iowa show the frequent rains of the past three
days have revived the wheat plant, which vas
beginning to suffer for want of moisture in
some localities, while warm weather between
the rains caused the wheat to grow vigorous
,y, and brought corn, which was backward
by the cold spring, forward with wonderful
rapiiity. All small grains share the good
fortune of wheat Most enthusiastic reports
come from North Dakota and the Southern
part of this State, of promise of crop Of ex-
traordinary quality and unusual yield per
acre. Some alarm is caused, here by re-

Republican State Convention.

hCVuDlIChu StAUc NOuSCutsOn.
The republican State convention held in
Portland Tuesday. was a magnificent
gathering in point Of numbers and in char
acter, and the manner in which it con-
Quoted and accomplished its business was
in the highest degree creditable to its
ability and its spirit. We believe no pre-
vious convention has ever equaled this in
numbers, and we very much doubt if any
previous one ever was so completely and
truly representative in make up. From
center TO circumference Of the State, the
live, wide-awake men, the citizens who
make and manage the business affairs
not only the political, but the industrial.
commercial, mercantile and professional
business-were there in force to partici-
pate in the important action of the
assembly. The intelligent and substantial
aspect of the body was most striking and
impressive. Looking those men in the
face as they occupied their places. or
meeting and conversing with them on the
street, no one could fail to be inspired
with higher confidence in the future Sc
curity and prosperous destiny Of Maine.
In the hands of such citizens, whatever
temporary evils arise will be overcome
and good government and benefcent laws
will generally prevail.
The platform adopted is admirable, and
one which every republican may study as
anepitome of sound republican principles
"a free ballot, fairly counted; free schools
and universal education; protection to
domestic industry, including ship-buiding
currency redeemable in gold and silver,
and continuation of our present safe
banking system; the burden of taxation
upon luxuries and not on necessaries; no
reduction Of revenue tax on liquors econ
omy in public expenditure. but liberality
to the deserving pensioners an independ-
ent judiciary; opposition to polygamy;
opposition to liquor traffic as enduring
and solid foundation principles what bet
ter could be desirede
The contest between candidates for nom-
ination was sharp, but free from acrimony
or personal bitterness. The majority won
fairly and the minority submit gracefully.
The nominees are well known men of
public experience and reputation. They
will all be heartily supported and triumph
antly elected.

An Experiment With Tomatoes.
Rural Messenger.

Rural Messenger.
This season has been favorable
one for tomatoes, and, though the
time for setting them out has passed,
it is not out of place to give the re-
suit of several methods, by way OF
experiments, which may interest
those engaged in growing them.
Plants of the same age and height
were placed in parallel rows, one
row being heavily MANFRED and treat
ed in the usual manner, while the
other row was subjected to a differ
ent process. Before the plants were
set out square hole one foot in dis
ameter was dug for each plant, the
depth being about two feet. At the
bottom coal ashes were placed, and
the plant was set directly on the ash
es. A mixture OF manure and dirt
was then filed IN around the plant,
which wa, placed ct such depth as to
leave only few inches of the top
shoots remaining out of ground. The
manure used was less than for the
rows set with plants in the usual
manner. The effect is plainly per-
ceptible, as the plants in those rows
containing tina coal ashes have made
double growth, and tower high above
those in the other rows. II is not
claimed that the application OF coal
ashes was the cause OF such rapid
growth, as the experimenter used
them Tor convenience, but the prep.
aration made by their use admitted
OF good drainage, while the recepta-
cles OF the roots were deep and safe
from dryness, and the application of
the manure and dirt was such as to
allow the plauts good feeding room
and plenty of it. The extra prepA~
ration saved manure and gained
growth.
