BASE BALL.-The Virginia club, which was the
best one Richmond ever had, has disbanded, after
winning 81 out of tho 90 games played. 1t is
understood that members of the disbanded club
will sue the Board of Directors for the amount of
their salaries. The disbandment of the Virginas
leaves the Nationals in undisputed possession of
the championship of the Eastern League. Of the
clubs originally composing the league but three
remain in existence, viz: The Nationals, Tren-
tons and Newarks. At the beginning of the sea-
sea each club except the Wilmingtons, put up
$3.50, to be forfeited in case of failure to play
out the seasons schedule of games. One result of
the disbsndment of the Virginiss, Norfolks Jer-
sey City and Lancasters is that 81, 100 thus put
up will be divided equally among the three clubs
that still remain in the field. The disbandment
of the virginias puts some excellent players on
the market.

FREAK OF VEGETATION.

In the mountains of Venezuela grows o
remarkable tree. 1t is found in rocky places,
at heights of about halfa mile. 1t is stupid
looking tree enough at first sight. 1t is lofty
and slender, and has stiff leaves, that grow
d foot or more in length. 1t looks much Of
the time as if it were dead In those regions
there is wet and dry season and during
many months at time not shower washes
its leaves 1t bears very small, insigniti-
cant looking flowers.
What is it good for, this tall, slim trunk,
with the dull, deadlooking branches? 1t is
the milk tree, the famous "palo dc vaca,"
which Humboldt describes. He first brought
it into notice. 1t is an evergreen. It's sap
is delicious fluid resembling the finest Jer-
sey milk, only sweeter and richer than even
that. When the negroes are thirsty they
cut into the side of the trunk as one would
bore into maple for sugar water, and the
milk gushes forth in great stream. 1t Is
both food and drink, so rich is it. After
little time it grows thick and yellow, and
cream rises to the top. 1t has fragrant
odor. When cow tree is tapped the ma
tives hasten from all quarters with their
bowls to catch the flow of milk. The fluid
tree, for then the sap flows most abundant
ly. The tree gets its morning milking like
cow.
Humboldt was much surprised at dscov.
ering the cow tree and finding that its milk
was palatable and nutritious. His knowl-
edge OF botany had taught him that most
milky vegetable fluids are bitter and burn
ing to the taste Some of them are poison
GUS. But here was one milky sap that put
even his great learning at fault
Attempts have been made to cultivate the
COW tree and make it grow in other locali-
ties than where it is found naturally, out in
vain. As soon as it is removed from its ma.
tive mountains it dies. The Venezuelan
government experimental with it without
success But South American labor is pro-
verbally shiftless. Perhaps if some live
Yankee would try to acclimate the cow tree
in our southern States he might succeed f.
nally.

YOU w pun OilttoC llOWi Dtlt We
do say that prices will not be
lower.
Domestic cotton manufac-
turers have been running
their mills, if not at a posi-
tive loss, certainly without
profit for the past year. Take,
for instance, Pequot Sheet
ings. One year ago the
manufacturers reduced the
price to soc per yard. They
h ID b. en- held at 32Hc.
Along in the summer they
reduced the price to 27Hc.
Late in December they re-
duced the price again to 25c
per yard We believe that
these goods have never been
sold at this price but once be-
fore in fifteen years, and that
was directly after the panic
of 1873.
Our price to-day for 1914
Pequot Bleached Sheeting is
csc per yard.
We hope for a more pros
porous year in 1885 than we
had in 1884. But prosper
GUS times bring more custo-
mers, and as soon as the
manufacturers sell their sur
plus productions they want
to advance the price of their
goods. We also want pros
porous times, but we like the
low prices at which the over
crowded state of the goods
market enables us TO buy
merchandise. We h a v e
placed the matter plainly be-
fore you, and shall maintain
our price of 25c per yard as
long as possible.

How Farmers Can Work Their Horses
satisfactorily.

How Farmers Can Work Their Horses
satisfactorily.
1t is often a considerable advantage
to work three horses abreast, and when
you have the teams such a plan will be
often found quite profitable. More
work can be done in a day, and gen.
orally with more ease to the teams.
Three horses are no harder to
age than two, if properly hitched up,
and outside of the long doubletree
nothing extra is needed.
Any good farmer can make a first
rate evener with very little trouble.
You need one good pair of doubletrees
with singletrees attached and one
%singletree. Then take a good piece OF
timber two and one-half or three
inches thick by four wide. and long
enough for the singletrees to work we'll
without rubbing against each other
say three or four feet long. Bore a
hole in each end and fasten the double
tree at one end and the. single tree at
the other. Measure carefully the dis
lance between these hubs and then bore
the next hole by which the team is to
be fastened to the implement, one
third the distance from the doubletree
side. This will give two-thirds OF the
length to the single horse who having
the longest 1everagew will be able to keep
up his end as easily as the other two.
This can be used in a wagon. harrow,
blow or any other implement that the
farmer finds convenient to bitch three
horses to.
In arranging the lines a good pair OF
check lines with two extra straps is all
hat will be necessary. Put a line with
check in each outside horse, putting the
.,heck through the names and across to
the hit of inside holse, fasten the other
end in the same way. Then use a strap
from each side Of the middle horse to
the inside ring of each outside horse.
This viii! give you perfect control OF
the team and yet will only require n
pair of lines.
prefer this plan to using Jockey
St;cks or having an extra set OF lines

tho double-tree is very simple and can
be mado by any farmer in a few MIN
utos f viii do the work fully as well as
onv patented double-tree or three-horse
