and should this supply ever prove inadequate
TO this fas. growing City, the supply can

sources they distribute $4,000 monthly
throughout the immediate vicinity thus max
ing total disbursement of $50, 900 monthly,
all of which goes to the benefit Of this City.
The people Of the place, as a rule, are proud
ofthis institution, and they may we'll be, as
many cities much larger, wonld strain their
finances to ge: such an institution located in
their midst.
Next in order come the Zinc Shelters.
These enterprises were attracted to this place
by its coal fields, where they obtain the
very best fuel obtainable for their purposes.
The ore is obtained on the lines of the
"Frisco" and "Gulf'' Railways, about fifteen
or twenty miles from here, thus making very
light freights on their raw material, aud as
the coal is right in their midst, they are not
burdened to death with frieghts, and are con-
sequently so located as to have these extraor-
binary advantages over other similar enter
prises in the country.
Among the first of these manufactures i:
''The CRANKY Mining & Smelling Company"
with 100000 plant, consisting Of q Sic
mems furnace, and four Belgian furnaces, the
latter containing 9l2 retorts in the aggregate.
They smelt 600 lbs. of ore daily, consum-
ing four cars Of coal in the operation, and
producing 1000 lbs. of spelter, or zinc.
They employ l25 men, and their pay-rolls
amount to $1,000 monthly. The quality of
ore used by this Company issuperior to the
ordinary other American ores, the products
ofwhich are classed with imported zinc, thus
insuring them from fourty to fifty cents per
100 lbs. more for their spelter than is OBJ
tanned for the average American product.
Next, and ranking equal, to say the least
to this concern, come the SHELTERS Of Rober,
Lauycn s. Co, The works of this firm en-
brace eight Belgian furnaces of 100 retcrts
each, which daily smelt $4,000 lbs. Of ore,
1000 lbs. of spelter, and using
five car loads Of coal. They employ 120 men
and their pay-rolls average $4,000 monthly.
This concern also operates store in the City,
and while not being quite as extensive as the
one of the Kansas s. Texas Coal Co., it car

CAPITAL AND LABOR

Bob Ingersoll figures up the conflict be
tween labor and capital in this way, but
remember Bob is an iniide:
Here is a shoe shop. One man in the
shop is always at work-always industri-
Gus. In the evening he goes counting a
good, nice girl There are five other men
in the shop who don't do any such thing.
They spend half their working hours in
loafing and their evenings in dissipation.
The first Young man by-and-by cuts out
from these others, and gets boot and shoe
store OF his own Then he marries the girl.
Soon he is able to take his wife out 10 ride

Farmers often make mistakes in,
planting the same kind of grain on
the same ground two or more years
in succession. That is the reason
why they grow one stalk of corn
instead of three. The ground is
exhausted much quicker by this
system of planting than by rota-
ton In crops. The same kind of
grain as corn requires like food
each year, and this exhausts the
essentials for corn. A heavy
growth Of clover plowed under will
raise crop of wheat and then q
crop Of corn; then should come
clover again, or barnyard richness.
This will keep up the corn growing
properties and keep down weeds,
because of frequent cultivation.
Land can be brought up by clover
two years and wheat one, always
blowing the seed crop under for
wheat; this produces a good crop
the year after wheat harvest. More
grass and less grain is the thing in
this country.

excuses why il failed to support

candidate for Mayor. Now, when
the annual election takes place and

for him will commit an unpardona'
BILE sin. If the organ has right ia
bolt, or refuse to vote for Republic
can candidates, why should moi
little fish jump over the net occa'

can be seen? The reason assigned
is that the Journal wanted a differ

bolted and supported the Demo

reasons for being poor and defect
i've. First, the location Is bad. The
action of the sun and the water
that falls may be the reason, or the
poOrness of tie soil may be the
cause. Old orchards exhaust the
apple food; therefore, they are like
a mich cow fed only upon poor
hay, or weeds, the quantity and
quality of the milk is in accordance
with the food she eats. The heat of
the sun upon the roots of an apple
tree will ruin fruit, especially if
the land where itgrows is poor and
hard. Young apple trees never do
well set out in an old apple or
chard, as the growing plant food of
that kind is exhausted. An old
tree dies, you set new one in its
stead, but it never does any good,
as it lives u starved life. A new
orchard should be planted about
every ten years, but entirely away
from the old one. Young trees
should be mulched every summer;
this protects as we'll as supplies
food. The mulch ought to be re.
moved about the 18th or Goth OF
September. Where barn yard
richness is used, this should be
done about lst of March or a little
sooner, so that the growth of tree
and fruit may derive the benefit
from it,.
