Breaking a Corner.
Wall Street News.

In the early days of Michigan, when
one dealer was the source of supply
for a large territory, capitalist from
the East suddenly bought up all the to.
bacco and whisky to be got hold of in
the state. There was no railroad
communication; it was winter, and
there was no navigation, and every
thing promised big profit on the
speculation. Prices began to creep
up and settlers to inquire and protest,
and the capitalist was rubbing his
hands and holding on, when some
thing happened. He was on his way
to church one Sunday when he was
seized by a band of tough-looking pio-
neers and carried to the river, where
a hole already had been cut in the ice'
"What is the meaning Of this?" he
finally asked. ,
1T means old prices fur whisky and
terbacker!" replied the spokesman.
"How?"
They proceeded to enlighten him.
Two of the band gave him a duck into
the water, and he was plunged in and
hauled out three times before he got
his breath and said:
Gentlemen, tobacco has taken a
great drop!' =, :, H..
"Give him some more!" said the
leader, and into the freezing cola
water he went again. When theyy
hauled him out, blue with cold, and
teeth chattering, he observed:
"And whisky is ten cents a gallon
less than the old price!"

How Wheat is Raised in Belgium.


Belgium is the most carefully and
deliberately cultivated country IN Eu-
rope, and the Belgium farmers raise
larger crops per acre in their small,
unfenced and finely lined farms than
anywhere else. Farming there par
takes OF the nature of gardening; i'll
deed it would be called gardening else
where. Wheat is the most important
crop, and the management of it is
particular to what other people would
call an extreme. The seed is sown
in the fall-spread broadcast and
thick over well prepared plant beds
similar to those Missouri tobacco
raisers prepare for their tobacco seed.
The young wheat comes up thick,
rank and strong in the fall, and re-
mains so all the winter, forming a
mat on the ground. In the spring
the ground is thoroughly prepared by
deep blowing and narrowing, after
which it is marked off in drills ten
inches to one foot apart, one way.
The wheat plants are then pulled
up from tile bed in punches and care
fully picked apart, one at a time, and
dropped at distances of four to six
inches in the drills in the field. After
the dropper follows the planter, who,
with trowel or thin paddle, makes
holes in the drills at the proper dis
tances, and sets out the separate plants
in the same manner as strawberry, to-
mato or tobacco plants are set out.
When the work is done there is a
wheat field planted in drills one foot
apart, and with the plants six inches
apart in the drills. 1t is tedious and
particular process. But on the small
fve-acre Belgium farms, worth 5000
to $500 an acre, it amply pays for the
trouble. The Belgium wheat fields
after being planted are cultivated be-
tween the rows by hand until the
plants are too high to admit of further
work. The plants branch into stools,
from each of which shoot up stalks
bearing heavy heads of grain; and
when the harvest comes the yield is
100 to $50 bushels of grain to the acre.
The cultivation of broom corn
and the manufacture of brooms is
growing industry in Texas. 1t can
be successfully cultivated in all parts
of the state. One hand, with cult

dozen persons drowned. At Milwaukee
four vessels were beached and num-

Ar Denver, Colorado, the trial of
William II. Bush, ex-senator Tabor's
partner in the Windsor Hotel, and I'M
til recently manager of the Tabor OPP
era House, on the charge of having
embezzled $4,000 from the opera-house
while manager, resulted in a verdict OF
acuuittal, after five minutes absence of
the Jury. The suit was brought by
Mr.. Tabor as the result of quarrel
between himself and Bush, growing
out of the refusal of Mrs. Bush to as
sociate with the new Mrs. Tabor, and
has excited in Denver great deal of
feeling against Mr.. Tabor, it being the
general impression that the prosecution
was malicious and groundlesS. SO
high has the feeling run that the Den
yer Club, the most prominent organi-
cation of the kind in the city, has eX-
PEELED Mr.. Tabor from its membership,
adopting at the same time resolution
to the effect that the expulsion is due
to the fact that he married a woman
with whom members of their families
could not associate, and that the object
of the club was thereby set aside. -.
