He Wanted a License.

A meek ana lowly son Of Italy blew into
the City Hall about o'clock yesterday
afternoon and indicated by signs sad bad
English that he wanted license to peddle
The paper was being made out, when he
interrupted the proceedings lorg enough
to beg for q six months license for the
price of one month. The officers couldn' u
see it, and the orgsn-grinder broke into
tears. For 1.-THE succeeding two hours be
wept and begged, bemoaned his hard luck
and wrupg his hands, and blew his garlic
laden breath over the books and papers at
rate which put stop to the usual rOu-
tine of work. Finally ne was fixed up for
six months license by the sympathetic
officials, but no sooner had he gained this
point than he took fresh hold and struck
his pew-found friends for Q license for a
year. To get this he duplicated his pre-
vious lachrymose performance, and raised
a general disturbance OF no mean order.
He was finally cut down to month and
fred out.

advantage of buying bankrupt

to thirty per cent. discount for cash.
Second, They have leased the
elegant Opera House building for Il
long time for almost nominal rent.
They have the most commodious
and best lighted store rooms in the
city. They carry a full and conf
plete stock of dry goods, clothing,
hats, boots and shoes, ladies' and
gents, furnishing goods, jewelry and
silverware, notions, stationery and
cutlery, groceries, in fact a general
variety such as are usually kept in "A

venture Co. is about the only firm
in Salem that tries to command the
farmers trade by buying all their
merchantable products, and they re-
tail the farmers products the same
prices they pay, thus saving to
the mechanics and laboreTs from
ten to twenty per cent. for the real
necessaries of life. Therefore the

only to say that during the last six years
| have grown it on a more and more ex-
tended scale, so that have several acres
of it. 1t is without doubt the most val
liable forage crop that has been intro
duced into agriculture for many years,
and all the letters which are occasionally
published to the effect that cattle will
not eat it are simply rubbish. The total
crop will amount to eighty orninety tons
per acre. All our dairy cattle here, forty
in number, and of every kind from Jerseys
to Ayrshires, including shorthorns and
mixed breeds, eat it greedily when they
come in from theevening milking. Pigs, of
course, will eat it, and it is invaluable for
pheasants, turkeys, and fowls, when
chopped up and mixed with little meal,
which it generally economies. Prickly
Camfrey is eminentIy the poor mans
crop"
The Camfrey is a hardy perennial and
when once firmly established in the soil it
is difficult to eradicate it. 1t is propaga-
ted from roots, shoots and seeds. Wedo
not know that it has ever been grown in
Florida, or the south If any of our read
ers have ever seen it, and are acquainted
with it's value, we would like to hear from
them We must make our own forage,
and the sooner we get at it the better.
If Prickly Camfrey will do us any good,
we must try it, Those who wish to know
more Of it, or get seeds or cuttings can

Nenagh, county Tipperary, Ireland.

Care of Sweet Potatoes.

The principal requisite in keeping sweet
potatoes is to store them away absolute
ly free from bruises or cuts. To accom-
plish this, plow out one side of the row
and throw out the bunch of tubers by
plunging the spading- fork in at the oppo-
site side. AS soon as they are dried, sort
carefully, rubbing them as free from dirt
as possible, and put such as are to be
stored away at once into the boxes or bar
rels where they are to remain. Lay tn I'm
in by hand do not pour them from has-
kets. Then lift the packages into the
wagon, and when arrived at destination
lift them out without tumbling or rolling
and set them down as carefully as if they
were barrel of eggs. This is less trOu-
BILE and expense than to pack them in
sand, shavings, or cottonseed NEAL and
serves thesame purpose. Thereason why
sweet potatoes are so difficult to keep is
that they are SO rich in sugar, containing
as compared with the common potato
nearly seven per cent of soluble sugar, in
place of a similar amount of starch, and
whenever the cuticle is broken the omni-
present spores of fungi take root and rap
idly produce discoloration and dry orwet
rot. The best place for storing is cool,
dry, well-ventilated room where the tenn
perature may be kept between forty and
fifty degrees Fahrenheit
Last year, having one sweet potato
ridge, about six hundred feet long, left
after setting the last plants, [ opened
drill along the top and sowed carrot seeds
in it. When harvest time came | plowed
down one side of the ridge and threw out
the carrots easily with the fork, instead
of searching for them deep in the bowels
of the earth. The long, smooth, we'll
shaped roots obtained determined me to
try the same method for the entire crop
this year, and present indications are
that shall not be disappointed at the
result-Southern Horticultural Journal.

For THE FLORIDA AGRICULTURIsT.
A Valuable Forage Crop.

1t appears to us that there are but few
things of more vital Importance at this
time than matter of forage.
Every farmer must of course own
stock and the man who attempts to
make an orange grove without horse
will find it quite an expensive undertak-
ing. But the expense OF keeping even one
horse in Florida at the present system is
enormous, and to keep more than one, to
the average man, would be simply ruin
Gus.
Now if the expenses could be reduced in
this matter, more stock could be kept,
and the farmer and grove maker would
receive increased benefit, but none more
pronounced, and that would be more ap-
preciated than in the increased amount
of manure-that all ESSENTIAL and always
expensive eIement-from his barns.
late number of an Edinburg exchange
contains long article upon the value of
the Prickly Camfrey as a forage plant.
This plant was introduced into the United
States from England several years ago,
but little attention was paid to it in the
North, because there were so many other
well known plants that answered every
purpose of the farmers that they were
not disposed to experiment with new
plants
A writer in the Farming World inior-
ses the plant follows: "Inreply oyour

Shipping Green Fruit.

We are now receiving our annual batch
of letters from the North complaining of
the shipment of green fruit.
The markets, SO our correspondents in
form us, are rapidly filing with fruit per-
fectly green and wholly unfit for use.
In the past we have said SO much on
this subject that to say more would ap-
pear superfuous, still we cannot refrain
from warning our growers against the
pernicious practice.
1t is possible that a few of the oranges
shipped North in a green condition will
bring better prices than those shipped
later in the season when thoroughly ripe
Still the number will be exceedingly small,
and the evil effect they will have upon the
market will be almost inestimable. A
few thousand boxes of green oranges
scattered through the North will give a
bad reputation to the Floridafruit. The
consumer when requested to purchase
Florida oranges during the height of the
season, when the fruit is full ripe and de-
licious, will naturally reply
''No thank you, | tried some Florida
oranges in October and do not want any
more of them"
Wait until your oranges are ripe, and
you will find it the most profitable plan
in the long run. Our people have more
than the present to look to, they have
the future, and whether the orange
business shall prove profitable or whether
it will prove a failure depends, to large
extent, upon the reputation we shall es-
tablish for our fruit. A manufacturer
who looks to the future OF his business,
attempts first to establish demand for
his goods by putting on the market a
superior article, and as a consequence his
reputation or the reputation of isgoods
becomes established, and the demand
with it. He is then, in measure, in a
position to make his own price and die
tate terms.
Florida orange growers must follow the
same plan.
