This may well be said to bo the

which is that IL was brought here from

In cold climate, not even in ST. Louis,
where IL has often been brought from
Louisiana in flower boxes and died out
the first winter. In 1929 we first saw
1t. On the public road in front of the
old Agricol Fusilier mansion, some old
negro men, unfit for field duty, were
spading up tae ground in the middle
of the road. Hating to look into so
strange proceeding, we found them
after digging up the earth, pulverizing

coarse sieve, from which they took out
grass roots or buttons, and put them
into covered pot. These same two
old negroes were kept at the same

Especial TO Times-Democrat.
Fort Smith, Ark, May 30.-Decora-
ton Day was duly observed here to-
day and the graves of the Blue and the
Grey over in the National Cemetery
were strewn with flowers. A large
crowd was in attendance. Col. Tbos.
Barnes delivered an eloquent address.
lie was followed by Harrison Kelly,
Congressman of Kansas, who made
very bitter and uncalled for political
speech. Probably no people assembled
on such an occasion amid such sur
roundings, such fraternity of feelings,
ever listened to such q speech. He
not only denounced Arkansas, but the
whole South.
This afternoon the citizens held an
Indignation meetings, which was COM
posed of Republicans and Democrats
alike. and passed the following rcsolu-
tons:
Whereas, Hon. Mr. Kelly, of Kansas,
an entire stranger, has this day dis
graced alike the Republican party and
insultod our people by desecrating the
graves of our national dead in a bitter
partisan speech, denouncing the people
of Arkansas as lawless people, inca
pablo of self government, and threat
ening them with his influence as a
member of Congress to put the State
under natal law; and
Whereas, Mr.. Kelly has son living
in this city who is a part owner of the
Republican paper of Fort Smith, and
who knows unless he Is non compos

PecuniarY Profits OF Science In AgrieaI-
ture.

A recent prize offered by an Eastern
horticultural society for the largest
money product from a given area of
small fruits was awarded to a straw
berry grower, whose sales from two
acres amounted to mole than $l700 ;
and Mr.. T. p Roe, in Play and Profit
in my Garden, has told us how he Sc
cured gross return of slightly more
than $4,000 from the same amount of
land. In the report of the last annual
meeting of the New Jersey Horticul-
tural Society the following are given
as some of the yields obtained by its
members, "although the season has
been uniformly bad" Early cabbage
produced S4S5 per acre; early toma-
toes, 1886 per acre asparagus, four
acres returned 5000; seven acres,
$1,000; four acres, $500 per acre, and
some instances as high as $500 per
acre.
Mr.. Peter Henderson tells of an as
paragus grower near Atlanta whose
crop gave for three successive years a
net profit of $1,000 per acre; and as
instancing departures from old meth
DDS, cites the case Of a farmer residing
near Rochester, "who half a dozen
years ago timidly made the attempt Of
growing half acre of his fifty acre
farm in vegetables for village market.
His venture was so satisfactory that he
, gradually increased his area, so that
, he now uses thirty of his fifty acres
mostly in growing cabbage for thu
. Rochester market. He further in
formed mo that the net profit from thu
5 cabbage garden last year was $4,000
: or little over 5000 per acre, and tina
d II was not a very good year for cab
bages at that" And for the encoul

How The Miners We're Fooled.

Eearly in the last presidential
campaign the coal miners of Clay
county, Ind, were notified by the
operators that it would be for their
interest to vote for the Republican
candidates. To bring the matter
home to them with greater force,
as the day of election drew near,
some of the mines were shut down
and the men reduced to idleness.
In announcing the closing the Off
GERS of the mining companies ex-
planned that is was due to the tar
if agitation. TO make this clear,
letters were published from O. B.
Potter and other iron manufac-
lures in Chicago, who are also
heavily interested in Clay county
mines, stating that the prospect
of Cleveland's election and the
passage of the Mills bill had COM
PEELED them to close their works
and hence to suspend their pur-
chases of coal and that the suspen-
sion would probably be indefinite
unless Harrison was elected, the
protective tariff saved and "public
confidence restored" The cores
pondence was published in the
Indianapolis Journal - Harrison's
home official organ-and other Re-
publican papers and was placed in
the hands of every miner in Indl-
ana and of thousands Of other work
ing men. 1t undoubtedly had its
desired effect in changing many
votes from Cleveland to Harrison,
and in Clay county the majority
for the Democratic candidates was
reduced to very low margin.
Mr.. Cleveland was not elected,
the Mills bill did not pass, Gen.
Harrison was elected, and high
protective tariff was saved, and, it
is to be presumed, public confidence
was restored. How was ii with
the Clay county miners? Were
they saved as well as the protec-
tive tariff? Having given their
votes as the bosses directed, did
the bosses keep faith with them
by reopening the. mines and en-
ploy ipgthem atoldratos ?Not much
