WHY Cabbage Fails.

In answering the query. Why cabbage
fails? a New Yorker tells in American
AgricUlturist that climatic conditions
have much TO do with Disappointing re-
suits He says: Take plants from the
same seedbed, of the same stock, set in q
field when the atmospheric conditions
We're favorable, say just before a heavy
rain, and an equal number of plants Just
after the rain, if it comes off very hot
and dry after the planting, the result
will show two crops so different in ap-
pearance that even an expert, not know
ing the facts, would say there We're two
distinct kinds of seed sown-the one
good, the other poor.
Cabbage, more than any other plant,
is injured by receiving a check in trans
planting. Plants set just before heavy
rain will not receive check, because
the earth becomes so thoroughly packed
about the roots that the air cannot reach
and destroy the feeding roots, while those
set in aftera rain may suffer because the
earth is not pressed firmly about the
roots. To guard against this the better
plan is to puddle the plants and to set
them in clear weather, when there is no
necessity for haste and the work can be
perfectly done. This plan l have never
known to fail. and believe more failures
are due to improper transplanting than
to all other causes combined.

CLEVELAND Plain Dealer:
Senator

CLEVELAND Plain Dealer: Senator
Sherman ignored the tariff and devoted
himself wholly to the silver question.
This is not surprising. Mr.. Sherman is
probably not prepared to indorse the
Mckinley tariff bill, either as it was
framed and put through the house by
Mckinley. or as it was transformed by
the insertion of the Blaine Harrison Blair
or some other mans reciprocity section.
Though Mckinley and his bill were both
to be whelmed beneath the flood of pop
ular disapproval in November, Mr.. Sher>
man would not greatly care, if Sherman
majority in the legislature should be
saved. The farmers are after Mr.. Sher-
mans scalp on the coinage question.
They attribute TO him all the evils that
followed the degradation of silver in the
coinage act of 1878, and in his Paulding
speech he was trying to save his hair
from their vengeful knives. He admitted
that upon the money question the repub-
licans "are somewhat divided" and he is
painfully alive to the fact that his sena,
torial seat may tumble into the rift unless
it is closed. The Psulding speech will
not save him. Mr.. Sherman has taken
great many positions on the currency
question, and some of them are wholly
inconsistent with that he now occupies.
He has fooled the farmers more than once
with his smooth talk on finance, but he
will find that he cannot fool them all the
time

There is more catsrrh IN this section of
the country than all other diseases put
together, and until the last few years was
supposed to be incurable. For great
many years doctors pronounced it local
disease. and prescribed local remedies, and
by constantly failing to cure with local
treatment, pronounced it incurable.
Science has proven catarrh to be con-
stitutional disease, and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure, manufactured by F. j. Cheney &
Co, Toledo, Ohio, is the ONLY constitu-
tionsl cure on the market. 1t is taken
internally in doses from 10 drops to a
teaspoonful. 1t acts directly upon the
blood and mucous surfaces of the system.

cure. Send for circulars ard testimon-
ials. Address,

Pinkeye.

This is not simply local disease con-
fined to one organ, as might be inferred
from the name commonly applied to it
on account Of the REDEEMED or infamed
condition of the mucous membranes of
the eye. Along with this there is usu-
ally much debility and loss of appetite
with high temperature and a feeble
pulse. The eyes are sensitive to the
light, the lids partly closed, with tears
running down the cheeks. There are
often complications involving other
parts Of the system that may require
special treatment, according to their
urgency. Animals affected with this
disease should be kept quiet and com
fortably stabbed, free from wet and
drafts of air, and should be blanketed if
the season is cold. The treatment in
general consists in maintaining the
strength of the animal by the use of nu-
tritious and easily digested food and the
administration of alcoholic stimulants
as the weakened condition may seem TO
require.

COttOn Coming West.

Chicago is good ways west of New

was stated in Chicago yesterday that 30, =

erect an immense cotton mill. OF this

manufacturers consider its erection of the
greatest importance to Chicas mechaui-
cal industries. They have been wonder
ing, indeed, why such an enterprise was
not planted here long ago Cotton and
wool are continually shipped through
Chicago to eastern cities and there made
into cloth which is shipped back and sold
here. The dealers claim that a saving of
40 or 80 per cent can be made by the
manufacture OF cotton goods here. So
preparations are being pushed rapidly
past q preliminary stage for the realiZs.

So cotton factories are coming. The
prejudice against their coming is being
rapidly removed. Once started in the
upper valley of the Mississippi we do not
see why they may not surpass IN number

The experiment there has been q won

tended that the climate of both the north

since exploded. When capital to the ex,

The coming OF a big cotton factory to

j. Z. Rawn stated that n nucleus for n

Crystal Spring, and it was hoped by
cooperation with tho Crystal Spring
Land Company IL considerable addition
might be made.
Col. Lewis thought that the only large
areas available for parks were between
Roanoke and Salem.
The principal subject discussed. how
ever, was the proposed boulevard be-

thought that for Si5, 900 q milo boulc-
ward could be constructed with two ten
foot walks, a double dirt road fifteen
fccu il width, with u macadamizcd
