The Rad Rasnharrv-

There are several varieties of the red
raspberry, and while they are all good.
more or less, some are better adapted to
one locality and to different soils than
others But / believe, as a rule. that in
all of the mountainous or hill regions of
the south, and in fact, the greater part
Of the United States. the Cuthbert does
the best and generally gives better salts

large. and of deep red color, with good
flavor and it is a good shipping berry
l have, as yet, had only about four years
experience with the Cuthbert but allow
me to say that this same experience has
been great source of pleasure to me, be-
sides considerable profit. / first bought
one dozen plants from neighbor for
which | paid 10 cents. / set these out in
square checks, or hills, about five feet
apart each way. / have learned since
however, that this is not the best way
/ do not remember exactly how many
berries we got from the dozen vines the
first season, but at any rate, they supplied
our family Of four persons with a most
delicious dish, served with cream and
sugar nearly every day for almost a
month. The same season ! let a few of
the best suckers grow, and late in the
fan set out twenty-fOur new plants, in
hills. just as ! did in the first instance.
course | could have had many more by
letting more suckers grow, but ] did not
nave room 10 spare IN my garden. The
second season the crop from both old and
new vines amounted to about ten gallons
of as fine berries as you ever saw. The
third season, from the same vines, l got
about twenty gallons.
The third and fourth seasons are gen
orally the best After this period the
berries from old vines gradually decrease,
both in size and quantity. / think that
six or seven years is as long as a patch
of berries ought to remain on the same
ground. They are benefited by rotating,
as nearly all crops are. | sold a good

market and to private families at Is cents
per quart, but / could not supply the de-
mand / have made some pretty close cal
culations as to the profits to be derived
from the cultivation Of raspberries, and
l will venture to say that on very ordi-
nary soil they can, by proper treatment
and cultivation, be made to pay at least
5000 per acre. But at the rate my garden
patch produced, it would amount to much

gravelly ridges while most other varieties
succeed best in lower ground.
About the best way to keep the ground
moist is to keep il well mulched, and cot
ton seed hulls make the best mulch for
anything that l ever saw; they also act
as d very good fertilizer.
The demand is increasing every year for
good berries and fruit. Raspberries do
not do so well, or at least are not grown
TO any extent, in Florida and the low
land Of the south. Therefore, in the large
cities Ike Jacksonville. Savan-
nah, Charleston and others, they
are in demand, and bring
much higher prices than hete, sometimes
bringing as high as 30 cents per quart, so
! am told No doubt there is money In
raspberrfes.

Important Decision.

Judge Cheney in tho Case Of James
p. Winfrey vs. George Russell ct al.
at Reno has given the law on several
points Of interest to farmers and the
legal professiouy In substance:
First. The upper owner Of land
haS no right or easement in the land
of lower owners. That is the upper
owner has no right to turn his waste
water on the lower lands tn the injury
Of the lower owner; if he does 30 the
conrt will restrain him.
Second. Where several persons by
seperata acts commit injuries each is
liable for his Own acts.
Third. For injuries done by per-
colating water from irrigation bitches
in the usual and ordinary course OF
irrigation there isno remedy.
Forth. But in case of injury from
percolsting water from artificial res
,ervolrs or storage of water the rule
is different. In such case damages
will be awarded and the nuisance
Abated. ".
Fifth. The owner of intermediate
lands is not liable to lower owners
for the injury FROM surplus water
coming from the lands OF upper
= owners and passing over or through
the intermediate lands.
II the above rules are observed by
farmers trouble will be avoided and
lawyers not be over crowded with
business on the water question. -

The people of Alexandria
know a good thing when they
see it. They saw the prices
that we're put on the immense
stock Of
Dry Goods, Notions, Fancy Goods, &C.,
and they caught on at once.
They came in llocks, in crowds,
in troops, and when they saw
what we we're doing and real
lied the IMMENSE SACRI-
FICE that was being made,
they waded right into the good
things and every one secured
a prize. At this SLAUGHTER
SALE you can't SO wrong.
Whatever you buy is a bar
gain which cannot be dupli-
Gated for double the money.
YOU DRAW A PRIZE EV-
ERY TIME-THERE ARE
NO BLANKS.
Some good things are gone,
but there are many still here.
Those who couldn't get to see
us last week missed some
good opportunities. But we
are still going to give them a
chance to get even. We have
madeanother STUPENDOUS
REDUCTION in the prices Of
the goods left. This sounds
impossible, but it is true nev-
ertheless. We want every
thing cleared out from top to
bottom. and the way we are
going to do it is by giving to
each person three times as
much for his money as could
be gotten elsewhere for the
same sum. We have plenty
of choice fabrics yet on hand,
which, if the business had to be
wound up, would command
full price to-day from every
man, woman and child who
needs them. These very same
goods we reduce this week to
less than one-half Of their mar
ket value. Why, it would pay
you to lay in a stock for future
use.
It's like saving up so much money in bank
you will have to have the goods some time.
and you will have then to pay 100 cents on
the dollar for them Why not buy them now
and hus effect great saving? A PENNY

the spongy bones are attacked, and frequent
