boat and had moved out little way
from the wharf, when Sheahan said
something that aroused the sailors
wrath. He (the sailor jumped over

with the "Irish cop" but was pre-
vented by his shipmates. A by

Prospects are Frightening.

While the affairs of trade on the Allan
tic side still remain in the lethargic state,
affairs in the West seem to be frightening.
There is at present stopping at one of
our big uptown hotels prominent buyer
for aIarge Western House. who is making
affairs among our Wholesale Merchants
rather lively.
With the repeal Of the Silver Bill we
can look for considerable activity; until
then business will remain at a standstill.
The morning call., 1893-11-03

1t Is evident that the Wholesale Merchants who
have large stocks on hand are hurrying up the
sale Of them with great avidity, as many of them
say that with the advent of revised Tariff they
cannot anticipate what changes may be made,
and they have no desire to be caught mapping.
The season has been decidedly late and buyers
few. About the only life in trade this week was
the big purchase of big San Francisco house.
We doubt if at this extra session of Congress
whether there will be any legislation affecting the
Tariff, as Congress has its hands full with the
Silver Repeal Bill. 1t any rate our Wholesale
Merchants are taking wise course in unloading
their wares

PETER: Colorado has its bloody brides

Merchants that do things on large scale.
One of the features of the week in our
wholesale district. has been the purchase
of a bio San Francisco Clothing Merchant,
who has made affairs in the downtown
district rather lively, and a great deal of
shaking up IN that somewhat sleepy dis
trict would be welcome in the shape of

THEIR OWN FAULT.

From the October Clothing Gazette
"The World" CLEANS that the cause
of the manufacturers being over
stocked is great deal due to their own
fault. That Journal says they are
brought face to face with the condition
that they viii sooner or later be COM
PEELED to settle.
The manufacture of Clothing, ETC.,
for many years past has been conduc-
ted without any reference to the de-
mand. The consequence is that each
season sees an enormous surplus on
hand which must be cleared out at
ruinous prices in order to turn over
the capital necessary for the next sea-
sons business.

Still Dull.

The depression still continues and the
outlet for goods poor; especially so
among the big manufacturers.
In recent interview had with John
Claffiin of the house of Fl. B. Claffiln q
Co., that gentleman stated that through
the present depression in trade the busl-
ness of the Wholesale Merchant has
fallen off 40 per cent, and good, sound
merchants can now buy goods at prices,
that if they remain in business % years,
they will never see goods SO low in price
as they are now.

While the Silver Senators are delaying the re-
peal of that obnoxious Sherman Silver Bill our
business interests suffering.
The Manufacturers and Wholesalers through
out this State are loaded with goods and the Mer-
chants in the East timd to buy 1t is not the
question Of price that stops the Merchants from
making sales but it's the uneasness for the future
among the Retail Merchants that causes them not
to purchase, but sooner or later they will have to
stock up.
The west is coming to the aid of the East nobly
and the wholesale market this week has been
visited by big San Francisco House, who has
made the somewhat gloomy look of Broadway
much brighter.
The down town Merchants all report business
very dull, but with the repeal of the Sherman
Silver Bill, there will be resumption in all
lines of business but this will not be done in
day nor a week nor a month; it will take time

FROM THE FAR WEST.

In our manufacturing districts it ap
pears that they are taking no chances
upon waiting for an improvement, but
each and all of our prominent Manufac-
turers are taking time by the forelock and
unloading as fast as they can.
A prominent buyer from the West, the
extreme far West, has been one of the
largest buyers in our midst for some
months, and the talk among the Mer-
chants is that this firm had things pretty
near their own way.
We trust with the close of this year
that our Merchants will fare better in
seasons to come and with the repeal of
the Sherman Silver Bill, we can look for
brighter times.

In rich land we'll prepared and then such
cultivation as so valuable a crop deserves,
and cabbage growing is Il delightful occu-
patton and very profitable ore.
The Brunswick Shortstemn is an excel
lent variety for southern use. For a late
desirable kind. The "Sure Head and the
"All Seasons are all excellent. For fall
setting the Improved American Savoy is
unsurpassed and produces heads as hard as
a cannon ball almost. There are other ex-
cellent SORTS. Much Of the manure applied
to cabbages should be in the way of top
dressings applied judlciously after the
plants have grown six or eight weeks.
Ihls manure should be composed Of the
finest grade Of phosphate, with a proper
proportion OF nitrate Of soda and some pot
ash. 1t would be well TO mix it with some
Givirsor so that it will be applied evenly
without the risk Of applying too much,
making two applications II necessary. This
is the best way OF procedure with cabbages
as well as with some other crops. Over
feeding must be guarded against just as
much as undertaking. We have killed
cabbage by giving too much food. On
sandy land cabbages can be successfully
grown only by the Chinese plan, mAnuring
the plant instead OF manurinR the soil
This is the RATIONAL plan, some might
designate it as the "scientiflc" plan, but
AusAOboA 10 O bSlln bldb bulla US well
enough.
To those who grow cabbages by the acre
and have level land, we would offer this
advice plant in checks.
After thorough blowing and narrowing
lay off rows three feet apart and bed out
with a long scooter. When setting-out
time comes check off the other way either
three feet or two, according to the variety
used. For kinds like the Hinringstadt or
Early Drumhead 3x2 is ample distance but
for the large kinds like the "Brunswlck" or
Flat Dutch" 3x3 isibetter. A distance of
4x3 is frequently given where very large
heads is aimed for. Where 3x3 Is the al
lotted distance it will require 4, $40 plants
to set an acre, and an ounce of good seeds
we'll managed will furnish that number of
plants readily. Allowance must be made
for good many defective seeds. What
ever you do, buy your cabbage seeds OF a
reliable scotsman, aud do not gr Imble at
such a seedsman's price. If he charges you

great dignity. When protector is required
that has not been Matching, it is usual
to pluck some of the feathers from the
breast, give IL glass Of wine and put some
chickens under 1t. When they get over the
effects Of the wine they feel sudden change
has come over them, and as the chickens
keep warm the part where the feathers have
been taken from they take kindly to them.
Turkeys are taught to hatch whether they
are broOdy or not, at any time of the year
Some added eggs are emptied and filed
with plaster Of Paris and placed in a nest; a
turkey is then brought in and placed on the
nest, something being put over her to
prevent her getting out. For some time
she will try TO get out, but soon becomes
accustomed to it and fresh eggs are put I'M
der; the chickens are taken out as soon as
they are hatched and fresh eggs put in their
place; they will keep Oh this may six
months or more. On the third day the eggs
are examined aud the clear eggs are taken
out. You will often see 100 turkeys hatch

early spring in France, and from what l
can gather they are more used there for
Matching purposes and as mothers than in
our couatry.

Thinning Out Plants.

Many of our readers are actively engaged
in gardening operations To such we would
say that there is no more important work
than the thinning out Of plants in the seed
bed, from which they are to be trans
planted, or in permanent beds in the gar
den. This work is often seriously neg
looted, or too long deferred. The proper
time is as soon as the plants are fairly up.
Then the work can be done without injury
TO those that remain. When the plants
first show themselves they have no fbrous
roots; consequently when they are removed
they do not disturb the soil about those that
remain. But if the work is deferred until
the root is bunch of fibers their removal
breaksotf many from the other plants. besides
loosening the ground about the young plants
remaining, so that they wilt down and get
a check from which they do not recover.
Many a crop of beets, carrots. parsnips and
turnips has been materially injured il not
ruined. in this way. Fingered" carrots
and coarse-rooted beets are, in the main,
caused by deferring thinning too long.
Many gardeners leave the young beets until
they are large enough for greens" before
thinning. This IS all wrong. Beets fit for
table use can be obtained two weeks earlier
if the surplus plants are pulled out as soon
as they appear. If greens are wanted seed
should be sown expressly for that purpose

Sheen Notes.

Sheep husbandry can be made very
profitable on the average southern farm if
every one keeping sheep would feed the
dogs in the neighborhood freely on a
strychnine diet, says Edwin Montgomery in
Farm and FtreSide. II man is not willing
to resort to this he is not the proper person
to raise sheep probably in this country.
Few states In any section OF the south and
west have any effective law against the
hundreds Of thousands Of worthless ours
that infest the country, nor does it seem
that our state representative will ever give
US such laws as we need to protect the
sheep interest when they assemble in legis-
lative halls. SO we must get rid OF some
of these dogs in some way If we wish TO
have any great degree Of success with
sheep. In using strychnine let no one see
you prepare the medicine; conhde In no
one
The farmer who raises sheep should have
good fences. There is nothing more exas-
perating than for ones neighbours sheep or
hogs to break through into ones fields and
crops. This is the time when the injured
farmer feels that he is almost persuaded to
commit murder, and We tell you frankly.
you had better let him alone and stay out OF
his way until he somewhat cools off.
Sheep are hardly more valuable to the
average southern farmer for their wool
than they are as weed destroyers and ex
terminators of noxious plants generally.
Our southern pastures are largely overrun
with such class VI vegetation. We need
the aid of sheep to keep the weeds and
troublesome underground in subsection.
The sheep often bite off the tops Of weeds
and prevent their seeding. They will ex-
terminate cockleburs.
If farmer does decide to keep a small
flock of sheep on his farm, let him see to it
that they are securely penned at night and
the pen high enough and close enough to
keep out dogs, or else have the pen fence
slanuiDg toward the inside, so that a dog
jumping in will not be able to jump out
again.
The farmer who keeps sheep for pleasure
or profit should make up bis mind to feed
them we'll in winter. Don't starve the
sheep! A hAlf-starved sheep is a sight to
see, and its pitiful cry of hunger is a sad
voice to hear.
There are hundreds and thousands of
farmers in the United States who will tell
you that their small flocks of sheep are as
profitable 10 them as any class of live stock
on the farm, and they will tell you their
sheep will pay them well, tariff or no tariff.
Large fiocks OF sheep do not pay 80 we'll,
relatively, as small ones. Frequently farm
ers overstock themselves with sheep. Sheep
will not thrive so well If too much crowded
in numbers. The idea with the average
farmer should be to keep only small flock
of sheep Of good blood. give them good feed,
shelter well and give general good atten-
ton. By being divided up into small tiocks,
sheep will not only prove healthier, but will
develop larger size and. will doubtless fur
nish a greater amount of wool. The
Merino will bear closer crowding than any
other breed.

Growing Cotton on Level Land.
Planting in Checks.

Where one has level land there is consid-
cradle gained by planting in checks. When
80 planted there will be no necessity for
more than one hoeing, if it is done prop
erly and at the proper time. The seeding
of the crop may be considered as somewhat
more tedious, but this could not be- re-

A Machine for Cutting Potatoes.

Outside Of the section Of territory where
trucking is carried on extensively there are
comparatively few persons in the south who
plant 80 large an area Of Irish potatoes as
