THE MA ARKWICK RECEPTION.

A Rousing Welcome Extended to the Pastor of St. John Street Church. Last evening the members of the congre. gation attending the St. John street M. E. church rendered to their recently appointed pastor, Rev. w. F. Markwick, @ reception which was held in the lecture room of the church. MT. Fred Bostwiok, who presided, introduced Mir. William E. Camp, who in 6 pleasing manner referred to the work of the church and Sunday school.
 MT. Fred J. Betts, of the Wooster Place Baptist church, addressed the audience in a way calculated to promote the fraternal feels ing existing so pleasantly between the two congregations.
 Dr. M. c. White, who was present, made an interesting address and referred to the time when he was pastor of the church which was long ago when Rev. Heman Bangs was connected with the church.
 Rev. MT. Narkwick added much to the fe- licity of the occaison by his happy address. Dear brothers and sisters, said he, have been a little embarrassed by the kindness that prompts a gathering of this kind on such an evening as this. During my last pas- torate I used to think I could never be so nicely situated at Meriden, but since have been here and have been so cordially received, have come to the conclusion that this field is larger than the Silver City am here for Gods work, and am convinosd that the change is right one. The pastor re-- ferred to the Sunday school, stating that he intended to promote the interest in the school, and that he will be glad to meet the members at their homes. Dr. Chapman of the First M E. church made one of his hu- morous speeches. Refreshments were served and much enjoyed.

The open Horse Cars on She Fair Ha-
 ven Road-The Electric Sysfem-AR
 Examination Of she Various Systems
 President Ives Enspects the New One
 on Fulton Street, Now York.
 President Ives of the Fair Haven and Westville road said yesterday morning that he should place the open cars on the route from Fair Haven to Westville and the Belle dock section as soon as the weather was sui fcientIy warm. The company has eight of these cars and will add three or four more during the season. With this number he hopes to give full accommodation to the pub lie. These cars were very popular last year, especially for women and children who de- sired to take long rides in the open air.
 President Ives says that his company has examined every system of electricity for run ming cars that has beer brought out, but they have seen nothing practicable as yet He is opposed to the overhead system, and there is really no system that his company would adopt. He is quite sure, however, that the matter will yet be successfully solved in the ultimate working out of some system that will propel street cars satisfac- torily. Until that time comes his company would depend upon horses. It would cost at least $100, 900 to apply electricity to the company's cars, and they would not care to appropriate such sum until the best plan could be adopted.
 President Ives was in New York city Wed- nesday and examined new electric system for street cars now being introduced on Full ton street in that city. The route of the new road is through Fulton street, from Fulton market, East river, to the North river. The road is known as the North and East river road. It has the conduit system, the wires being laid underground on the con. duit plan, similar to the conduit plan begun on Court street, this city, by the Southern New England Telephone Go. The road was started two years ago, but owing to a colli- sion of interests with the Bleecker street road the cars are not running yet. The road was announced to begin running last December, .and then again last February. It is now ex- pected that it will be running shortly. Pres ident Ives enquf-ed thoroughly into the sys tenn adopted by this road, and especially the conduit plan with wires underground. The pavement was taken up while Nr. Ives was there. The conduit lays in a trench two feet wide under the tracks, and holds the system of wires from which the power is applied. The road has no overhead wires. But, as stated, no electric system yet adopted but is imperfect and capable of great improve ment.

Pecuniary Profits Of Science I'm AgrI
 cmiture.


 [James K. Reeves, in Harper's Magazine for A recent prize offered by an Eastern hor
 ticultural society for the largest money pro. duct from given area of email fruits was awarded to a strawberry grower whose sales from two acres amounted to more than $1 TOO; and MT. E. P. Roe, in Play and Profit in My Garden, has told us how he se- cured gross return of slightly more than $2, 900 from the same amount of land In the report of the last annual meeting of the New Jersey Horticultural Society the fol lowing are given as some of the yields ob- tained by it's members, although the sea- son has been uniformly bad" Early cab
 bage produced $435 per acre, early tomatoes, $5S5 per acre; asparagus, four acres returned $900; seven acres, $1 ,000; four acres, $2O0 per acre, and some instances as high as $500 per acre.
 MT. Peter Henderson tells of an aspara- gus grower near Atlanta whose crop gave for three successive years a net profit of $1, 800 per acre; and as instancing departures from old methods, cites the case of a farmer re- siding near Rochester, "who half-a-dozen years ago timidlY made the attempt of grow ing half-acre of his ffty-ac farm in vege- tables for village market. His venture was so satifactory that he gradually in- creased his area, so that he now uses thirty of his fifty acres mostly in growing cabbages for the Rochester market. He further in- formed me that the net profit from the cab- bage-garden last year was $6, 500, or little over $2O0 per acre, and that it was not 8 very good year for cabbages at that" And for the encouragement of those not ito the manor born," the same authority gives the following case as being within his personal observation: "A college-bred man of twen- ty-eight, failing in health from office work, purchased a farm of sixty acres at Northport, Long Island. The second year he tried few acres in vegetables and small fruits, which he found sale for in the village of Northport at most satifactory prices. was on his farm in the summer of 1883, and must say that for a man who had got his knowledge almost wholly from books, his venture looked as if it would be complete success. '' In the dairy region of southern central New
 York, where the writer's boyhood was passsd, and where the. chiefiagricultarsl at- fractions consist of Q gently undulating landscape and some most enticing trout streams, the general farming community have found themselves compelled to live "rather close to the bone." A rise or fall of half cent per quart in the wholesale milk market of New York city may be suf- icient to turn the balance from one side to the other of their profit and loss account.
 Yet among their number is 8 Princeton alumnus, the record of whose work have recently seen, who by the application of agricultural science to the growing of crops, the manufacture of ensilags, and the feeding of stock, is enabled to pursue the t'even tenor of his way" which is to harvest an annual profit many times in excess of the average 31a per cent of his State.
