Protecting Vegetables In winter.

1t does not seem to be generally known
that light in the winter time is the chief
agent in the destruction of vegetables
otherwise hardy, and especially light
shining brightly on the plant when
frozen. y cabbage or turnip that is cx.
posed to the light rots readily, but will
keep perfectly sound if but slightly COW
cred with earth. This principle should DO
remembered when collecting vegetables
together in large masses for protection.
1t is often customary to cover such
sets of vegetables with some light ma
terial, such as leaves, hay or straw, the
result of which generally is simply to
form harbor for mice, which are much
more destructive than the frost itself.
Water has, of course, to be excluded
and if the vegetable plants are set close
~ together and covered with boards to
keep out the rain, it is generally all that
is required. Water must be excluded,
or else rotting may result. For this pur-
pose it is good practice to invert vege-
tables. The cabbage especially must re-
ceive this attention. They are almost
always inverted when placed together
under boards or covers for protection,
and, in fact, where no covering at all is
used they will keep perfectly well when
inverted. Monthly.

New YORK, June IA, 1898.

New YORK, June IA, 1898.
Undoubtedly most of the readers of The
Phoenix have seen or passed over the
Brooklyn bridge, but probably few have a
correct idea of the magnitude of this stu
pendous structure, and of its traffic and
operation. The bridge was begun Jan. ?,
1870, and was opened to the public May "a,
1888. The New York tower contains 49,
945 cubic yards of masonry, and the Brook
Ign tower 1924 cubic yards. The height
of the towers above high water mark is 278
feet. The weight of each anchor plate is
25 tons. The diameter of each cable is
154 inches, aud the length of each single
wire is 1878 feet. Each cable contains
5296 parallel mot twisted) galvanized steel,
oil-coated wires, closely wrapped to a solid
cylinder, as above noted, 154 inches in di-
ameter The original cost of the above
bridge was S15,OOO,OOO. Employees are:
Collectors, "a; gatemen, 10: conductors,
100; policemen, 100: Each train on the
cable road crossing the bridge has four
cars, and during the busy hours of morn
ing and night these trains run only A sec
onds apart. The number of passengers
carried since the opening of the bridge to
January, 1893, reaches the grand total of
262, 260, 1871; and the earnings, covering
the same period, ten millions of dollars
| Over $1,000 was received in 1892 from va
rious telegraph and telephone corporations
for the privilege of running their wires
across the bridge, the Metropolitan Tele-
| graph and Telephone company having the
greatest number of wires, sos.
The cotton acreage under cultivation
shows an increase for the year of 7.2H per
cent. and total of 10, 70l, 3Sj acres against
1882, 900 for 1892, and prospects of a
crop of $500, 100000 pounds. From the
above one can see very little hope of high
er prices for cotton. The full yield of 20C
pounds to the acre in 1890 and 1891 caused
over reproduction from which the cotton mar
ket has never recovered.
For the past eleven months our export,
of breadstuffs have decreased, in round
numbers, Sl00,000,000 This tremendOu,
decrease is caused very largely by the great
decline in the price of wheat, which alone
shows a loss of over thirty millions of dol
lars. The average price of wheat pei
bushe shipped from the port of New NorA
last month was 500 cents, compared with
90 cents for May, 1892, showing decreas,
of 49, cents per bushel.
The gross earnings of railroads for the
month of May show very gratifying results
Reports have been made by 1871 roads
whose totals show an aggregate gain o
50, 537 ,074, as compared with May yea

There was n large gathering OF the members Of

No. q West Forty-fourth-st. yesterday afternoon
when H. f.. Krehbiel gave his lecture on Folk
Song In America Mr. Krchbie explained the
growth of the folk song In America and showed
the difference between 1t and the popular ballad.
lie said that the folk composed Itself; 1t was
the product of the people. and came as an express
sion OF their sorrows and joys. The identity OF the
author Of the song always lost. Its creation
was a passing phenomenon; its music reflected the
inner feeling OF those among whom 1t found ut
;erance America. Mr.. Kr,nbel declared. could not
be said to have folk song OF It's own; such as
America had found in the South. where the
influences Of the plantation life the negro lfe OBJ
tanned The production OF the song required n
genuine naive disposition which was found 50
strongly In the negro The truest folk music was
an expression OF the Of people lament.
The lecture illustrated with songs which Mr..
Krehbiel had selected from original sources, and
which Miss Marie Van sang charmingly
