Tomatoes Tor Home Use.

My method Of raising tomatoes Tor
family use have found quite successful.
The first requisite is good. strong, potted
plants, 80 far advanced AS to be ready TO
blossom. Last year some Of them at
planting time had fruit set. / have the
ground prepared beforehand, making the
hills about four feet apart and working
up the soil 10 the depth OF eight inches
where the plants are 10 go. / find good
soil works AZ well for tomatoes as for
other crops. After the middle Of May or
as soon as warm weather has fairly come
the plants are transferred from the pots,
the earth and roots adhering in such a
way that transplanting does not in the
least check their growth.
AS soon as the young plants attain suf-
ficient size 10 need IL, strong stakes about
feet in length are driven in the ground,
TO which they are tied. This was sug-
gested to me several years ago, and l
find it very satisfactory. II keeps them
off the ground, thus preventing rotting,
and gives free scope 20 sunshine and air
II the growth Of the plants is too strong,
the ends are clipped off from time to
time, AZ well as superhuous branches.
never plant two rows together, prefer
ring 10 give them the full benefit of the
sunshine ON all sides. The tomato Is en-
phatically n warm weather plant and
will not flourish in the shade. Thorough
cultivation and frequent stirring of the
soil, especially in dry weather, is impor-
tant. Country Gentleman.

"Prarinr Up One steps."

The Catholics Of Cincinnati gave q re-
markable demonstration Of the faith
that is in them when they prayed up
the steps" on Mount Adams. This pc
culiar custom has been in vogue for
about 80 years. and the Church of the
Holy Cross, standing on the brow of the
cliff on Mount Adams. has become cele-
brated far and near for the miracles per-
formed there. Fully 10000 men and
women prayed up the steps" on Good
Friday. There are 267 of the steps In
all and about 30 landings. The pilgrims
who visit the chapel must remain silent
for three hours.
The pilgrim upon reaching the stairs
on Third street repeats Hail, Mary"
Stepping upon the first step, she pauses
and repeats the prayer. That done. she
steps mp one and silently repeats Hail,
Mary" and thus step by step she prays
10 the top, pausing on the platform to
repeat the Lords Prayer. All this time
she keeps in mind certain wish she
hopes 10 have accomplished within the
year. Arriving at the church, the bare
footed monks bless them, and they go
about their business.
One of the fair penitents said most Of
the young ladies pray for husbands. The
married women pray for their wayward
children. Those having sick friends pray
for their recovery. 1t is said cases Of
rheumatism have been cured by the
patients praying up the steps" Every
Good Friday the steps are blocked with
penitents from noon to dark.-Cor. st.

The daily morning Astorian. [volume] (Astoria, Oregon) 1883-1899, 1893-02-26

Astoria papers kicked Mr. Laidlaw last
week, says the Skamokawa Eagle, be-
cause he said vessels were constantly
getting aground there" in reference to
the Astoria harbor. Now Astoria has an
excellent harbor, and few Of her citi-
zens are really aware Of the fact, but
there are another lot of her citizens
who are not and it Is this class who
have been waiting for Portland capitalists
to build a railroad down the river and
thrust business and greatness upon them
for the last forty years, Portland keeps
on her way, tows her great ships past
Astoria. If they are loaded too deep to
go up the river, lightens them In AS
toria's harbor, and snakes them along.
If the Columbia or willamette offers OBJ
structions, Portland secures government
aid and removes them. Portland is now
biding for a million dollar public build
ing, and will eventually get IL. Portland
governs the Columbia river. Biennally
she goes through the farce Of holding q
"ioint convention" with her powerful? SIS
ter on the north bank of the river, and
they talk fish, and when the entertain
ment is over, Portland controls the Co
lumbia for two years more. All the roads
lead to Portland. All the steamers anc
slips turn their bows in her direction
Portland will not build to Astoria, and
If we ever get road built down the
Washington shore, mark the prediction
Portland will control that road. True
! Astoria has a harbor now, nature looked
out for that matter. but Portland will I'll
1t with sand before she gets railroad Il
she don't watch out"
The daily morning Astorian. [volume] (Astoria, Oregon) 1883-1899, 1893-02-26

Truly, Astoria is gaining. The latest
arrival in the shape of semi public enter
prise is the new steam laundry lately es-
tablished here and situated in commo-
dious quarters south of the Clatsop Mill
Company's mess house. The most pleas
ing thing about the new industry is that
1t will put stop to the steady drain of
good American gold through the hands of
Chinese out of the country and keep 1t
at home to assist in supporting white men
who live and spend their earnings among
us. Such an innovation needs no begging
for favors. There is not any question
that it will live and thrive till its pro-
portions have grown to four times their
present size.

Last night three enterprising Celestials
in the little native restaurant opposite
Liberty Hall began to light firecrackers
One package of the explosives flew in off
the sidewalk and landed in the middle of
large basket of bombs and powder
jumpers" In few seconds matters got
very interesting and every Chinaman in
the store was outside in less time than
it takes to tell it. The bombs, fairly ig-
nited, started in on business and soon
filed the place with smoke and flames.
The fire bells were rung and the engines
quickly responded, but the damage was
quickly checked by the application of a
few buckets of water. A few feet away
behind the counter were bombs enough to
have blown up the building had the flames
reached them.

The patriotism of the teachers and
scholars of Alderbrook school is worthy
of remark. A holiday is dear to the heart
of the average scholar and seldom allowed
to escape, but when the celebration of
Washington's birthday was mentioned in
the school the vote for 1t was unanimous.
The rooms were handsomly decorated,
crowded with visitors, and the exercises
very successful. Nearly every child of
the sixty pupils had some event in the
life of Washington to chronicle. The con-
diton of the school reflects great credit
on Mr.. and Mrs. Williams, the teachers.
and matters in this respect are very sat

hood
