CATALOGUES for the fall fair Of IN

CATALOGUES for the tall fair Of the
Cecil County Agricultural Society
are being rapidly sent out by the
Secretary. There is mistake in
one Of the purses offered for road
wagon. The premium is s75, and
the first horse receives $40, the
second $50 and the third SIS. The
types makes it read, "first $500,
second s35, third SO" Horsemen
Of course viii understand the error,
and will not think for moment
that out Of a purse Of s75, that the
first winner will get 800. Such a
thing would be prcpostcrous The
indications point to a most success
ful meeting in October for the man
agement. Never before were such
premiums offered in all the depart
Inents. The magnificent exhibition
building will give ample room for
exhibitors TO show their wares.
What makes the Cecil County Fair
emincntly successful is the untiring
interest taken by the ladies Of both
Maryland and Delaware. Many are
already preparing for the coming
event with keen relish. Just to
think Of the trotting program

country On either side, On Monday
afternoon and night. Such a storm
has not been known for years say
residents who witnessed the fury Of

Of q cyclone. The steamer Major
Reybold, that has successfully rid
den the waters Of the Delaware bay
and river for years, succumbcd 10
the fierce blasts, and was wrecked,
the pilot losing his life, and the Cap
tain made narrow escape from a
watery grave. Loss Of life and
property il reported from the track
Of the tornado. The Philadelphia

Of dollars. 1t is not clearly

The object Of mulching is to MAIN
tain more equable temperature and
condition Of moisture. While mulch
ing is considered Of Importance. and Is
practiced In summer, IL Is perhaps little
less 50 for winter. In winter the adj
vantage Of mulching comes chiefly
from is maintaining a uniform condi-
ton Of the soil. The simple condition
Of freezing does not cause injury 70
plants, IL n the alternate freezing and
thawing Of the surface which tends to
lacerate and destroy the tender roots.
One great object Of winter mulching Is
10 prevent this. and for which reason
the mulch may not be applied until the
ground Is frozen SO as to hold II In that
condition as much as can be There
Il an advantage In mulching IN that
manner newly set trees or small fruits.
For trees there Is probably nothing
better than sawdust firmly pressed
around the trees. Hcmlock or other
evergreen bonghs furnish the best kind
Of protection for strawberry plants
