MR.. GOURLEY'S PLANS.

He Will Make n Personal Canvass, and
Hold Open Meetings.
The approach of the electio 4 has infused
activity into all the candidates. II. l.
Gourley will go into a personal canvass and
hold open meetings, taking the stump on a
municipal reform platform. Judge Bailey
was out on the streets yesterday, and was
met by Mayor McCallin, who inquired after
the health of the Democratic candidate for
Mayor. The Judge replied that he prob
able felt better than he has for years, and
was in the fight to a finish.
One of the hottest fights in progress is
that of Knowland against Bell for alderman
in the Eighth ward. It is pretty nearly a
drawn battle and no spectator can predict
the result.

Epoch.

The transition from long. lingering and
painful sickness to robust health marks
an epoch in the life of the individual.
Such a remarkable event is treasured in
my memory and the agency whereby the
good health has been attained is CRATE
fully blessed. Hence it is that so much
is heard in praise of Electric Bitters. So
many feel they owe their restoration to
health to the use of the Great Altera-
tive and Tonic. If you are troubled with
any disease of Kidneys, Liver or Stom-
,ach, of long or short standing you will
surely find relief by the use of Electric Bit
ters. Sold at so cents and 81 per bottle

| " 10 tdrller IMAM OCnerS. LII requires
exercise OF Judgement to pick the plumes
aC One proper time. They are generally
ready when they are exposed from the
husk, q few inches and have q fluffy look.
lt lss WeN to try few at this stage and il
tney cure well at the stem end when dry
they are all right, but if they do not
1u11 at the stem end, they have been
rlcke too young. If the plume looks
dark and seedy at the top when cured it
was to old when picked. Some varieties,
espe cially those producing very long
plm mes, should be allowed to remain
son tewhat longer on the plant than the
plu: mes of the short-producing varieties.
By trying few OF each variety that may
be- your planting, the time OF ripening
can soon be ascertained. AS the plumes
are. cut in the field, they are taken to the
hus king bench to have the husk or sheath
rem owed. This is done in several ways:
som e pull them out, but if this is not
clev erly done, much injury results The
best way is to set q knife sufficiently high
to isplit the husk, but not injure the
plum he; when the husk has been split,
quick jerk or strike on the table will ex-
tract the plume.
From here the plumes are carried to the
drying ground, and evenly spread in long
rows. This ground should be made
smooth and free from any trash liable to
adhere to the drying crop. 1t takes three
days and two nights for the pIums to
cure, and they should be shaken and
turned once each day while curing. They
are next packed away as broad ard
smooth as possible on wide shelves, in
airy buildings. They should lie there
from ten days to two weeks, or, until
the stems are thoroughly dried, at which
time they are ready for market. In pre.
pairing for shipment, one, two or three
grades should be made, according to the
market to which they go. If shipped by
express, they should bepacked in bales of
say 1000 plumes. A covering of canvas
or burlap and some light strips of wood
lat the corners will complete the package.
If shipping is done by freight, it does not
make much difference as to the size of the |
boxes used, provided they are not less
than four feet long. A good size box is
one four feet long, two feet two inches
wide and three feet two inches deep. A
box of this size Withhold about 5000 first |
class plumes If packed smooth and
straight there is no danger from tight |
packing, and very heavy weights can be
used. They can be easily restored to their |
original beauty by exposure to heat and |
a gentle shaking. The largest demand |
for the last few years has been from Eng |
Land and Germany.
The Pampas plume is used exclusively |
for decorative purposes, and when used |
on large scale makes q grand display. |
Many are used in the making OF dried |
grass bouquets, etc. Pretty dried grass
holiday cards, in which the Pampas is the
chief ingredient, are made in Germany
and sent to California to be sold as SOU
venirs.
