Werts' Great Veto.


Governor Werts so thoroughly de-
molished that Board of Finance con
frmation bill in his veto, yesterday,
that there does not remain a ghost or
a shadow of a pretext for placing it
upon the statute books. 1t is a prac-
tical certainty, as the Governor
says, that the measure is I'M
constitutional. Though he did
not 60 into detail on this
point, lawyers well know the
grounds on which his objection
rests. Even the counsel most inti-
mately associated with Bob Davis
have assured him that the bill would
be knocked out by the courts on half
dozen grounds; but the ignorance of
that great leader is as impervious as
his obstinacy is irresistible, and SO
the measure was dragooned through
both Houses.
After the Governor had exposed the
atrocity Of the bill, it would have
been a work of supererogation to go
into a discussion of it's validity. The
Governor showed that in its mere
operation on the Board of Finance
itself. it contemplated such an
anomaly as was neve before contem-
plated outside the kingdom of Titipu
or some similar realm of topsey-
~turveydom. He demonstrated in the
clearest terms that it made chat
body a perpetual and wholly ire
sponsible machine, which could never
be assailed by any force other than
that of some future Legisla ture. BE
it understood, We cast no reflection
upon our Board of Finance. 1t is
and we have always said so-by far
the most respectable board in our city
government. If powers of confirma-
ton were to be vested anywhere, they
were better placed with this board
than anywhere else. But a board
made up of saints and angels should
not be burdened with the deadly
powers which this abominably con-
ceived act of the Legislature contem-
plates.
The Governor further points out
that the bill practically wrecks the
Democratic ''home rule" idea. 1t
substitutes government by legislative
commission. 1t is a mere trick and
device to overthrow the will of the
people by an abuse of brute force.
After such a veto. there can be no
sort of justification for the passage OF
the bill. Such an act becomes an in
solent defiance of every propriety, of
every principle of honor, justice, NOR
ality, common decency. If it is
passed, the act is simply the crown
ing outrage by this outrageous Legis-
lature upon the people of the whole
State, and most especially upon the
Democratic party, whose confidence
the majority members have betrayed.

TIFT OFF FOR NEW YORK.
a Suspicion That He Expects to
Meet tho Actress There.


Brunswick, Ga, May 6.-There are
other developments in the Sam Hall Tiff
Cora Van Tasscu sensation, which has
stirred Albany from center to circum fer
ence for a week. The papers all reported
that since the departure of Miss Van
Tassell, the actress, from Hotel
Mayo, on account of the firta-
ton between herself and
young Tiff that he had left Albany and
his whereabouts were unknown Miss
Van Tasseu however, said in various
interviews that she knew where he was,
as she was in Geographic communication
with him. Mr.. Tiff arrived in Bruins
wick by an early train this morn
ing accompanied by his cousin, j.
Holmes of Albany, sedate looking young
gentleman who is studying for the minis
try. They at once went to the Offices of
the Mallory Steamship Company. There
they engaged tirst-class passage to
New York on the steamship Rio
Grande, which sailed at o'clock
this morning. To friend here Mr. Tiff
said he had been sent away from home
until the matter blew over and that he
was accompanied by Mr.. Holmes, who
was along to keep him quiet, but that he
had been on lark the night
previous and intended having a
good time. When the steamer sailed
Mr.. Tiff was standing leaning over
the rail and smiling. Miss Van Tassell
left Albany Thursday for New York
direct. In all of her interviews she said
Mr. Tiff was the only boy she liked, while
she gave Mayo and Bryant of Albany
pieces of her mind that were not pleasant.
1t is said that the friendship between
Miss Van Tassell and Mr.. Tiff is mutual

Prof S. NJ. Tracy of the Mississippi
experiment station, as well as Prof. Con-
nell, professor of agriculture of the Mis-
siSsippi Agricultural and Mechanical
College, are not favorably impressed with
the merits of this plant after experiment
ing with it. 1t seems that Prof. Massey
OF the North Carolina experiment station
has found unusual virtue in this clover,
and he has written up it's good points
largely for the press.
AT the Florida station one good crop
was secured to two rank failures
One serious objection to it seems to be
the difficulty in getting good stand and
the delicate, weak and sickly nature of
the plants for some time after the plant is
out of the ground.
The fact is the true merits of this plant
so far as the south is concerned is still in
serious doubt. If the season is unusually
favorable for the plants, the crop is usu-
ally good one and the grower is pleased
with the clover. If the season is more or
less unfavorable the crop is not good and
very often a miserable failure.
Most catalogues and writers say con-
corning this plant, it should be sown
in the fall with small grain. But
| say that very few grasses, or clovers
can be depended upon to afford a remner-
alive crop when thus sown in the south.
When the grain is harvested the
plants are likely to perish,
exposed without protection to
the hot sun at critical period,
too, of their growth. 1t is a fact that this
plan of. seeding is not reliable; in the
north and west, where this plan has been
pursued so long and continuously, the best
! class of farmers now see the disadvan-
tages of it and advise against it.
For two years past the agricultural
press of the south has been publishing a
great deal Of matter calculated to boom"
this clover. Behind it all have long ago
! discovered the cunning hand of the
/ shrewd professional scotsman.
10 those who have never yet made an
experiment with this clover l would ad-
wise caution.
Go slow. Let your experimental plants
be small and your cash outlay for seed
and labor small Personally, | know
nothing practically of this crimson clover.
but if had any idea of sowing it, would
first find out its true Tor approximately
so) comparative value with red clover. 1t
! seems to me that if one could successfully
raise red clover on his lands it would be
better to do so than an annual which
promises no more profits Red clover in
the southern country, when once sown
and a good stand assured, and a vigorous
growth attained toward the stage of
maturity-is likely to last continuously
for several years without any reseeding
This reseeding business is expensive. The
idea is not to grow so much of those plants
that yield the largest annual returns
gross, but those plants that yield the
largest returns net.

Peaches and Plums in Florida.

We are indebted to the Farmer and
Fruit Grower for the following report on
fruit culture in the form of an essay
read before the Florida Horticultural
Society atits recent meeting at Pensacola,
by J. x Cooley.
Mr. Godbey's objection to potash as a
fertilizer will be a surprise to old and ex-
perienced fruit growers but it may be
that Mr. Godbey's soil was not in need of
potash If there is enough potash in the
soil well and good, but if there is def
cheney of it it must be supplied.
Commenting on Mr.. Godbeys paper
George L. Taber of Glen ST. Mary said
he was surprised at the statement that
potash as applied to peaches did more
harm than good. This would not do for
his section, he considered it of special
value, particularly for bearing trees, as it
increased the size, improved the flavor
and heightened the colorlof the fruit, all
important points in the market value of
the crop. The color of the Kelsey plum,
often TOO green to sell well, was very
much improved by liberal applications.

Crimson Glover.

This plant is also known as scarlet
clover, annual clover, Italian clover and
perhaps other names. Its botanical
name is trifolium incarnatum, writes Ell
lison Montgomery in Southern Farm.
The very fact that it is an annual and
must be reseeded for each crop, is a very
serious objection 1t will not yield a salts
factory crop unless the soil is fairly rich.
Remember that DIR. Pharcs in his Farm
ers' Book of Grasses and Other Forage
Plants. " says of it only this: AN annual
maturing earlier than red, of which it is
perhaps a variety"
c. Nj. Howard in his Manual of the
Cultivation Of Grasses and Forage Plants
at the South" says of it: This is
an annual, and is liable TO the same obiec-
tions with all other ANIMALS. 1t may be
sowed with wheat in the fall, and after
the wheat is cut. will yield IA fair crop Of

They can also be set much deeper, rs the
plum root is not as easily injured by
water, and suffers less from drOuth
What l have said about planting trees on
top of the ground applies only to trees on
peach roots
CULTIVATION
Cultivation should be frequent and shall
low; no weeds or grass should be allowed
to grow when the ground is dry enough to
work. When the rainy season sets in, the
soil gets too wet and cultivation is out of
the question, and weeds and grasses have
full sway. As soon as the rains are over
the peach orchards should be cultivated
and kept clean. A good cultivator is about
the only implement required. The turn
pillow is seldom needed and should only be
used as a last resort Where the cultiva-
ton is properly done hoeing will not be
necessary.
THINNING. .......
Peaches usually set two or three times
as much fruit as they can bring to perfec-
ton. The beginner is almost sure to neg
lect thinning, which is very important.
PICKING AND PACKING.
The proper stage in which to pick
peach for market can only be ascertained
by experience; much depends on variety
and distance from market. A good plan is
to take one of the boxes ready for ship
ment and set it away, waiting until the
time has elapsed for those shipped to
reach destination, then open your box and
examine. If not ready for eating pick a
little ripper; if over ripe pick a little
greener. A person can soon tell just the
stage for market
l make about three grades, as to size
and ripeness, shipping the ripest ones to
nearest market and the greenest ones to
more distant markets. | have never lost
a shipment that went through to destina-
ton. l invariably ship by express, re
gardless of the rate.
PACKAGES.
After trying various packages for
peaches find a shallow box or tray hold
ing one or two layers of fruit to be the
best. These trays are used by all the
growers in my section. CpThey are gen
orally II inches wide, % inches long and
deep enough to hold one or two layers of
fruit That for near market is put in two
layer boxes; that for distant market in
one-layer boxes.
In packing first put in a thin layer of
excelsior, then spread over this a sheet
of fancy wrapping paper, then pack the
peaches in straight lines according to size.
When the box is full spread on another
sheet of fancy paper, light layer of eX
celsior, nail on the lid and the box is ready
for shipment.

The Weather and Crops in Middle
Georgia.

For the first four months of the year
the rainfall was as follows: In January
24O inches, in February 557 inches, in
March 40 inches, in April 1.79 inches.
The total for the first four months, it will
be seen, is little less than IA inches

for these four months; so it will appear
that at the close of April there was a de-
fcency of inches of rain, at which time

the absence of the necessary moisture to
