there was q method In forcing all the
work OF the convention into one day,
the plan being 10 propose State ticket
and rush II through. The Oampbellites
are unquestionably endeavoring TO make
a dicker with Virgil Kline, evidences Of
which multiply every hour. Mike Null

for Lieutenant Governor will probably
be Kline, and Mullen Is sympathy with
the Campbell men, Notwithstanding
the reports that lie intends to lead

Kline will not accept nomination for

to make an arrangement with the Camp
bellites, II is likely that Hubbard WILDE

case the convention nominates Camp

uted circulars which denounce Campbell
for being out OF line with his party. One
which Is flying about the Phillips
House, Campbell's headquarters, com
tains this: "No Democrat has anything
against Mr.. Campbell, except his opposi-
tion to the cardinal principles Of the
Democratic party, his opposition to
Cleveland and his refusing To take the
stump for Mr.. Powell"
THE TICKET PREDICTED.
Cards bearing cuts Of the Democratic
rooster and the words, Campbell will

dreds Of hat bands. Unnumbered badges
have appeared on coat lapels and the
multifarious little scenes 10 stir up en-

Neal men are at work and have already

CATIONS. So have the Cambellites, how
ever. One OF the circulars put out late
last night by the Neal men was sup
pressed by order Of Neal when not a

II looks at this moment as though this

Though the parade was not to start
from Twenty.seventh street till 10

yantaveous positions from which to view

Let Nature Guide.

In trimming fruit trees. saws the New
orleans Ftcdy9ne, whatever may be their
kind, there are always certain character
istlcs of growth and habit which must. be
observed, and for the most part scrupulously
conformed to, or sooner or later the conse-
quences will be disastrous. Every variety
grows without variation after its peculiar
habit. and these natural tendencies cannot
be disreg arded. Nature will submit to
slight notifications and perhaps be the bet-
ter for it, but radical changes will not be
tolerated. No set Of rules can be laid down
for our proper guidance. An intimate ac-
quaintance with the varieties to be treated
is Imperative, and a proper regard for the
unframed effort of nature necessary if we
would have our orchards long lived and
tourishing. l do not mean to say our
orchards need no attention from the prun-
ing knife; but only that the perfect shape
displayed in the nursery catalogue is very
misleading and can have no counterpart in
healthy orchard of dozen varieties.
Summer pruning of young stock, by which
is meant rubbing off all weak and super
fiuous shoots, should be persisted in
throughout the growing season. Late in
November the seasons growth may be cut
back not more than one-third. The highest
bud left on the limb should point outward
and always in the direction in which you
wish to encourage the next growth. Be-
yond these general rules one cannot ad-

The Uses of Cultivation.

There are three indispensable requisites in
successful cultivation, says the New York
World First, the ground should be suf-
ficiently fertile and in suitable condition
for the reception of the seed; second, the
young plants must be protected from being
overshadowed and robbed of their neces-
sary sustenance by other plants; and third,
the best conditions for their development
into complete maturity should be furn ished
during their season Of growth. The neces-
sity of keeping cultivated crops free from
weeds goes without saying. A rich field,
planted with corn, if left uucultivated,
would soon be overrun aud swamped with
weeds and yield only the scantiest crop of
ears at the season of maturity. Clean Gull
tivation is, therefore, one of the prime
necessities of successful farming.
Exemption from weeds, however, will not
of itself insure profitable crop. By hoe
ing and cultivating the ground on which the
crop is growing not only are the plants
themselves protected from the presence of
hurtful weeds, but the soil in which they
grow is put into condition favorable for
their development. The intelligent farmer
does not use the hoe or cultivator simply to
keep down the weeds. Weeds are a nui-
sance anywhere but continued drought is
even more effective in hindering the
growth of crops.
Auother of the necessities of all plants,
whether useful or noxious, is moisture. In
seasons when the natural supply is limited
or cut off by climatic conditions we cam OF
control, the soil itself contains reserve
stores that can only be utilized by judicious
cultivation. Right here cultivation per-
forms two offices 1t kills the weeds that
would otherwise rob the plants and it ar
rests the moisture that without it would es-
cape into the air and leave the plants to
perish from drought The water that is
taken up by tho roots of a plant passes

ward exhaled through its leaves. But
where there is a drought and no cultiva-
tion the moisture from below is constantly
being brought to the surface by capillary
action, passing by the roots of the plants,
and is lost in the heated atmosphere.
Hence the necessity of SO stirring the soil

rlpens in August and September: but the
tree has blossoms and fruit on all the year

ing. They grow with less attention than
the peach, and sometimes begin to bear the

According to the New York World,
every effort is being made by the rulers of
high art fashions to bring forward the tea
jacket-a sort of nightgown, made of Grape
or velvet, lined with down and satin and
cut to fly open so as to reveal petticoat of
lace and embroidery. Strong as are the
efforts made in favor Of this really beauti-
full and luxurious robe, it will never entirely
replace the aesthetic tea-gown, which has a
firm hold on the affections of woman, for
the reason that it is a complete as well
as a graceful and charming toilet,
whereas the tea-jacket is garment
which should never degrade itself
by going downstairs. For invalids
confined to their couch OF bedchamber by
the treachery of health or the perfidy of an
inheritance, it is certainly an admirable
robe, as. it does away with superhuous
drapery, which must be uncomfortable
under the circumstances, but it is anything
but elegant for a lady to appear in her
drawing room and administer to the ease Of
her guests in a white petticoat and colored
dressing jacket-for what more is the tea
jacket than slightly elongated, much
bedecked relative to the humble sacque in
which lady would be Mortified at the mere
thought of appearing before her friends or
her own brother.

orehards ID cold valleys.

On this subject, which is one of no libtle
Importance to fruit and also grape growers,
the Country Gentleman gives some excel
lent hints as follows:
We furnished to the public, many years
ago, full statement OF many instances in
which crops of half-tender fruits, such as
peaches and nectarines, were destroyed BY
the frosts of winter when planted in she l.
tered valleys, while those on expo sed hills
escaped. The soil was rich in the valleys
and favorable to the free growth of the
trees; and sheltered from the bleak winds
of elevated grounds, they were enormously
supposed by some persons to be safer there
than on more exposed localities. The cold
air on sharp winter nights, made heavier
by the exposure, rolled down the sides of
the valleys, and filed the bottom with a
lake of cold air, while warmer air remained
above.
We have known a difference of sixty feet
in altitude to make all the difference be-
tween an uninjured crop of peaches on the
hill, and its entire destruction at the bottom
of the valley. This effect is Increased, and
the trees as we'll as the crop sometimes de-
stroyed on account of the rank and suceu-
lent growth in the richer soil below, render
ing them liable to winter killing, while the
well ripened and well hardened growth on
drier and more compact soil were proof
against the frost. 1t sometimes happens,
however, that trees growing low down on
a compact, weIl-arained, and moderately
fertile soil will succeed better than those
higher up, if on a mucky and water soaked
piece of ground.
In climate Of milder winters, and where
the peach crop is never killed by weather
below zero, a late English writer says: 81
do not believe in planting fruit trees IN the
bottom of valleys. This is often done to
secure the rich soil. But it is of little bene-
fit to the grower to realize strong growth
and an abundant towering if the crop is
destroyed in the Towering by the spring
frosts-which has repeatedly happened the
last few years in certain localities" This
further illustrates the same diff Gu ty-that
of frosts i'll valleys for tender growth.
In all cases, whether high or low in situa-
ton, thorough undertakings should be al
ways given to the ground where orchards
are to be planted, unless a drainage exists
III the soil. Those who are about setting
out new peach and other orchards the pros
ent autumn, or preparing the land and
trees for the next spring, win find it advan-
tageous to select situations least subject to
provide in advance ample drainage.
To the above may DO added that the same
facts hold good in regard to grapevines and

The Fruits of Florida.

The New York Vineyard says that there
is great interest manifested among the
people of this section of tie state of New
York. in common with those of all the
northern states of the union, in regard to
Florida, and they are learning that it is not
only land of flowers and oranges, but of
many other valuable and various products
of the farm, fruit-f1eld, orchard, garden
and vineyard.
Such being the case, we desire to name
most specifically the leading fruit produc-
tions of the state for the benefit OF such
readers as are engaged in fruit growing, or
take an interest in that branch of horti-
cultural industry. The following Is from
the best authority, though somewhat
changed in language:
The orange industry has excited the at
tention and admiration of the world,
though yet in its infancy. Every known
variety is grown to perfection. The fruit is
ripe and ready for market in October, and
the last of the crop is shipped in May. The
fruit is of better quality, richer flavor,
finer appearance, and greater variety than
can be produced in any other known part
of the world.
Besides the orange, many other fruits of
the citrus family, such as the lemon, lime,
citron, grapefruit and shaddock are pro-
duced in abundance-the citron furnishing
the famous article of commerce. known by
that name-and all these can be successfully
grown in large portion of the state. The
lime and lemon are about as widely used in
other parts Of this and other countries, as
the orange, though not 50 extensively; and
as not one-tenth as many growers are en-
gagged in raising them, it is thought that
