is being so extensively cultivated They
have been somewhat injured more than
once by cold, their iruitage and growth
possibly considerably retarded and
there has been serious loss among planters
of tomatoes and OF her early vegetables by
reason OF cold Yet this circumstance
has not hindpred planting again, and
even more extensive cultivation than was
at first engaged in.
It is a good idea to cultivate whatever
will grow in your section and pay you
for your work. Diversity is what we
must begin to think of and make ar
rangements for, but there are two East
Coast products that in all probability
will never be Outrivaled, nor will the
supply ever be above the demand-the
Indian River orange and the pineapple.
Their day is not in the past by any
means. They will be first and best al
ways, and there is no cal thly reason why
their cultivation should cease.-Juno

as they should be it is half tie battle TO
success for the next years crop.
All poultry men should now see that
their fowls are properly mated and pens
and coops looked after to insure cleanl-
ness and health. If your fowls are not
properly mated you will he disappointed
in having fine stock. Cleanliness, fresh
pure water and plenty OF green feed will
insure health, and properfeed and agood
breed plenty of eggs. AS the work OF
this month is about gone over all we can
do to insure success is to watch and work
and be ready to meet any emergency
that may arise. n. j. M. PORTER.

New Fruits

Our Federal Government is making ef-
forts t. introduce new and improvedfruits
from tropical lands, and messages are
being sent from the Agricultural Depart
ment to the farthest corners Of the earth,
requesting small consignments Of seed
and plants, such as are likely to make
luscious additions to Uncle Sans or
chards and plantations. Only two or
three weeks ago the first importation of
named varieties Of cOcOanuts ever re-
ceived in this country reached here from
the Philippine Islands: five distinct kinds
the Consul at Manila sent with their
proper designations attached, and four
teen more kinds unbiased.
From Turkestan and Bokhara, too,
seeds are shortly expected of certain SUI
perb varieties of peaches that shall be
proof against the destructive disease of
the fruit in this country, the "yelloWs."
GRATED trees have been ordered, also, Of
the famous mangosteen, from Southern
China-the finest of all tropical fruits,
as people in Asia think. Though grown
in India, it has never been brought hither,
nor even to England, owing to its perish
able quality, though frequent efforts had
been made to convey specimens to the
Queen.
Southern China is also being drawn
upon for grated trees OF the mango, and
a Japanese fruit called the "myrica ruby
"a" small and shaped like an olive, has
Just arrived. Six varie ties OF the banana,
from the Philippine Islands, should not
be forgotten, and most important OF all
is the persimmOn, desirable samples OF
which are to be brought from Japan and
particularly hardy ones from Corea, such
as may be able to stand the climate far
north on this continent.
Nearly all these fruits are strictly trop-
ical, and so they will be sent, or have
been sent already, to Lake Worth, which
is so far south in Florida that frost never
touches it, there to be prOpagated from,
so that it may be discovered how profit
able it will be to cultivate them on Amer
>ican soil.-PrOduce Trade Reporter.

Florida's Future.

An editor OF the West Coast rises to re-
mark that the day of the orange grower
and early vegetable raiser is in the past
and a doubt is expires sed that it will
ever again be present, and further sug-
gests that the unwise shipping OF oranges
has made Florida fruit thing TO be
Stunned in the market. In fact Floridi'
ans generally are warned against fur
Their investment in this particular line OF
business.
Discouragements in the shape OF frosts,
mismanagements, etc, are mentioned
and the golden opportunity that awaits
farmers on a larger scale in gene al is
pictured very graphically.
These untoward conditions may posi-
bly obtain on the West Coast, though the
TamLa J ournal does not discriminate, but
seemingly alludes to Florida in general,
but a candid view OF the situation on the
East Coast will reveal a very different
condition. Indian River fruit and veg
etable growers are very prosperous and
to all appearances q very we'll satisfied
set OF people, The frost has not been so
Injurious as to make them hesitate even
to try again, and in no case has the trial
resulted in utter failure. There is lots OF
money for the East Coaster in orange
and vegetable culture; he knows it, and
doubtless is not prepared to listen to a
proposal to discontinue his efforts to get
it.
A suggestion is made that the planters
discontinue the cultivation Of delicate
fruits and vegetables, that may be easily
Injured by cold, and devote their atten-
ton to more hardy, and possibly under
some circumstances better paying ones.
Whenever the cold makes fruit farming
in Florida Improbable, it would be the
part of wisdom in planters to act upon
this suggestion, but to those of our East
Coast we would say by all means not to
let 20 what they now have in hand-the
control of the tropical fruit output.
In some portions OF Florida extensive
and heavy farming is most successfully
carried on, and the longer it is engaged
in, the greater improvements are intro
duced, and the possibilities more generally
adapted to the benefit OF the farmers
There has been, all along, improvement
and advance in every line OF work
At the same time in the tropical fruit
producing sections progress in methods
of culture, improvement in fruit and the
rapid introduction of new fruits have
been profit to our people. The Indian
River orange is in just as great demand
to day as it ever was. The early vegeta
BILE raisers are not one whit discouraged
(they have had nothing to discourage
them) while efforts are being doubled to
secure the growth Of as rare and delicate
fruits as will possibly yield profit here.
To come further South into lower Bre
ward and throughout Dade counties it is
the cultivation of the most tropical fruit
of all that pays best, receives more atten'
ton and promises greater returns than
all Others. Wealludeto the pineapple that

the P. o. s. of A., and the committee having
immediate charge of the affair are working
diligently to make the celebration beftting
the largest town in the county.
Invitations have been issued to all societies
in the town, as well as camps and comman-
deries throughout the county, to participate.
So far the following societies have signifed
their willingness to take part in the parade;
Camps Nos. 112 2O6, 1873, sc and 80, and Com
mandery No. 3, P. o. S. of A.; Maj. Jennings
Council, No. 1867, Jr. o. U. A. NJ; Camps

Lithuanian Society, Camp 40, Sons of Vet
erans Post 146, G. A. R., Improved Order of

ough Council.
The committee has asked permission of the
School Board to allow them the privilege of
laying the corner stone of the new public
school building, which, if granted, will be
made one of the features of the day.
The programme adopted for the day by
the committee will undoubtedly attract a
large concourse of people from other sections
of the county, and will consist of ringing
of bells and firing of forty-four salutes at 6
o'clock in the morning. At 8 o'clock the
thirteen original states will be represented by
the ascension of thirteen balloons. The
parade will form in the afternoon, moving at
1:3O the chief marshal of which will be
David Morgan. The event of the day will
occur at $50 p. m., when a grand tableaux
parade will take place, accompanied by an
elaborate display of fireworks.
To defray the expense to be incurred by
the display of fireworks, and which will be
on scale never before equalled in this
county, the committee will hold an ice cream
festival on the 10th instant in Robbins opera
and several special and unique features will
be introduced.
The organization having the demonstration
in charge should be assisted by our citizens
as far as possible in order that the day may
be appropriately celebrated in this Columbian
year. The Select Council, of Philadelphia
has set an example which our Borough
Council would do well to follow. They have
appropriated $4,000 toward the celebration
in that city. IL has been suggested that {
donation of 500 by the Borough Council o
this town would not only be just recogni
tion of the efforts already put forth, bu
would also be the means of making the
tableaux display more elaborate.

between the red bridge and Yatesville. Carr
had just gone on duty when he observed a
man stoop over the rail and place some
thing on it. The man was about 300
yards from the watchman and retired
to the bush. Carr walked down to the place
and found that spike, such as is used TO
fasten the rails to the ties, had been placed
in the tongue of a frog which is used to
switch trains from the main line TO the
Kelley Run colliery track. Carr asked a
passer-by to notify the police and @. &. /.
Policeman Kreiger responded. Meantime
the man who placed the obstruction ON the
track and two companions proceeded to make
their escape.
Kreiger and James Dooling followed the
men to town, after which Constable TOOmey
shadowed them while Kreiger was swearing
out warrant before Squire Monaghan.
When arrested the men gave their names
as William Rakless, August weschula and
Joseph Lenofsky. The men are Poles. They
did not seem to appreciate the enormity Of
the act. In fact they treated it as a good
joke
| The men made no statements until after
the Justice fixed the amount of bail, when
one Of them said they were amusing them
selves tossing spikes from the bush to the
tracks Weschula was the man who placed
the spike in the frog. As he was unable to
! secure bail he was taken to the Pottsville
Jail yesterday. The others furnished bail in
the sum of $500 each.
Carr's discovery was timely one, as the
miners train, due here at p. m. from Maha-
noy City would have passed over the frog
within ten minutes and an engineer to whom
the obstruction was illustrated said the spike
would undoubtedly have thrown the train
from the track.
The act is considered one Of pure malicious
ness and the parties held for it will not
laugh when the court disposes of the case.
The law provides a severe penalty, fine not
exceeding $4,000 and Imprisonment not ex-
ceeding ten years. A few years ago a boy of
town who placed an obstruction on one of the
Lehigh tracks received a sentence of four
years.

feat was suffered at the hands of the Hazle-

its fielding was excellent. The uniforms are
