TO PREVENT TRAIN ROBsERIES.
The United States railroad commits
sioner, Wade Hampton, has an article
in the North american on railroad bri-
gandage. Many suggestions have been
made to thwart the robbers of the road
in their designs upon railroad express
cars. One suggestion is to make bullet
proof express cars, with floor and roof
openings, in which armed guards NAV
be carried to protect the safes. Wade
Hampton's article. however, says it
would be impossible for the government
to guard every train with an armed
band. but he thinks that the railroad
companies could do something in this
direction. He would have every ex-
press car furnished with iron gratlngs
inside the ordinary doors, which
could be securely fastened. In each
car there should be, in addition to
the ordinary messenger, guards
man, and both of these should be
armed with repeating shotguns,
which would give two armed men to
each car. These men protected by the
iron door would be match for eight
robbers, and robbers are usually cow
ards. The first man to appear in front
of the grating would be shot dead, and
proba bly, few robbers would care to be-
gin an attack under such conditions.
He also proposes that dogs be used in
following brigands, and corrects the
common misapprebension that the dogs
ordinarily used for hunting men are
bloodhounds; they are foxhounds and
will follow a mans trail, but will not
attack him, and are, therefore, useful
only in discovering his whereabouts.
If trained dogs were kept at stations,
they could be telegraphed for and sent
hun lreds OF miles in few hours. As
they can follow a trail twenty-four
hours old they would always be on the
spot soon enough to be useful. II these

At last the North and South road is
almost completed. By February l the
northern part of the territory and Phe-
nix will be connected by rail.
For more than two years the people
have been watching and waiting for
this consdmmation of their hopes, and
now that the road is so nearly COM
pleted they can hardly realize that it is
true.
Only twelve miles OF grade remains
to be built; that is, there is only that
much gap between the grade built north
from Phoenix and south from Prescott,
and the rails are being laid as fast as
the graders work.
The road is practically here. Now let

YANKEE VILLAGERS

Deluded by Rascaily Travelling Dentists
Into Buying Sets OF False Molars.
''There is many New England vii
lage in which you will hardly find a
natural TOOTH" said dental surgeon
to a Washington Star writer. THAT
is to say, not an adult inha bitant will
possess any teeth of his own. All of
the grown-up people wear false teeth.
This rather odd state of affairs is due
to the operations of certain unscrupu-
lous persons who go about the country
with false teeth for sale. One of these
fellows will go through a village and
literally pull every tooth in the place.
To take the places of the teeth ex-
tracted he offers artificial sets at eight
dollars. In rural parts, for obvious
reasons, people very commonly suffer
from toothache. The malady is dis
tressing, and the customary way to get
rid of it is to have the tooth drawn.
No dentist is at hand to restore the af
flicted grinder to a healthy condition
by filling. The peripatetic quack comes
along with his forceps and offers to
give final and permanent relief from
all such suffering in future. For the
small sum Of eight dollars he will re-
move all the natural teeth from a Gus
TONER'S head and substitute fer them
an artificial set of much better appear
apce, which will never cause any pain
to the wearer. By this attractive offer
the people are deluded into parting
with the chewing apparatus with
which nature has furnished them, and
the result is a toothless population.
As you are probably aware, tooth pull
ing is rarely resorted to by good den
fist, inasmuch as it must be an ex-
traordinarily bad tooth that cannot be
fixed up so as to be better than any
false one"

THEY DESERVE WELL.

The officers who captured Price and
Young at the peril of their own lives
deserve we'll at the hands of the people.
The tragedy will be an example that
may deter other would-be evil doors
before they enter upon a career that
can have but one ending.
The officers deserve not only the
thanks of the people, but substantial
recognition as we'll. Two gentlemen
have volunteered 10 circulate paper
for this purpose and will tomorrow call
upon the citizens of Phoenix for such
amounts as they may feel disposed to
give. They should easily collect sum
sufficient to handsomely reward the
brave officers who SO efficiently main
tanned the dignity OF the law and the
good name of the territory.

SLIGHTLY DISCOUNTED.

That the Atlanta Constitution has no
use for the present Democratic admin
istration may perhaps be cleaned from
the following excerpt from its editorial
columns: 1.-The whole country knows
that congress has not carried out Demo
cratic principles. 1t has dallied and
delayed, anu has been purchased with
patronage and bulIdozed by the infu-
ence of the president. 1t has repudi-
ated the most vital pledge of the Chi
cago platform and has become in effect
the plant tool of Wall street. Look at
the situation" it continues, "Demo-
Gratis pretending to be paralyzed-con-
gress fddling with the most imperative
demands of the hour-the administra-
ton pretending to be helpless against
its own cherished financial policy Was
such a sickening spectacle ever seen be-
fore on the face of the earth? Was
there ever before such a CHASTITY display
of folly aud imbecility-to use no
harsher terms2 1t is discreditable to

FLASHED IN THE PAN.


The Democratic pow-wow has flashed
in the pan. The brilliant scheme
concocted to indict Governor Hughes
by the grand jury and thus Sc
cure his removal failed OF it's mission.
The REPUBLICAN has no interest in
Democratic family fights, but it does
object to the expenditure of large
sums of public money simply that
some ones dirty linen may be washed.
1t was not generally believed that
Governor Hughes was guilty of crime,
or that the grand jury would permit
itself to be used as political tool for
the purpose of ousting the governor
from office, hence there is no surprise
that the grand jury has ignored the
charges preferred against him by po-
litical enemies.
In the interest OF the reputation OF
the territory, however, we would like to
call the attention of the people to the
fact that indiscriminate charges of this
character only tend to bring Arizona
into bad repute.
No good has yet come from the oppo-
sition to Governor Hughes while much
harm has been done. He is making q
good officer, having the respect and con-
fdence of a majority of the people, and
there is no reason why he should not
serve out his term of office.

The Best Varieties of Oranges for General

Planting.
[The following discussion. which took place at
the 8th annual meeting of the Florida State
Horticultural Society Jacksonville. May z.
8, and 1852 is published, by permission, in
advance OF the forthcoming report by the Society:
the latter. a substantial volume. full of up to
date horticultural information is now in prepara-
tion and will be sent free to any one remitting

tary, Glen st. Mary. Fla
e. S. HUBBARD-The question of varie-
ties is a pretty wide subject to take hold
of. In other fruits, apples for instance,
the question Of varieties has been by
long experience settled down to the
growing of only few standard varieties.
In the culture of oranges, in Florida, we
have hardly reached that stage, as what
we nave done has been, comparatively
speaking, largely experimental.
In early varieties of oranges, know
Of no standard, all around sort. We
have a number OF early varieties, but
none hat fill the requirements satisfac-
torly Several Of the Mandarin tribe,
results; in other sections, they may not
make good growth, or the size of the
fruit is too small The Satsuma colors
and ripens very early In many localities,
but the tree is weak grower. The
Tangerona has been experimental with
somewhat, but hardly enough to recon-
mend this variety for general cultiva-
tion The Yellow Mandarin, in some
soils, rlpens early, being colored and
sweet enough to ship by the last Of
November. Throughout the orange belt
generally, the Red Tangerne is probably
the most satisfactory of the earlier rip
ening class of Mandarin oranges; it can
be shipped for the Christmas market
Among the round oranges, Contenial
Parson Brown and NonpareiI are the
most satisfactory of the early varieties:
they have sufficient acid to make them
palatable, and are sweet enough to eat
when colored enough for shipping.
For mid-season, the Jaffa may be con-
sidered the standby. There is quite a
long list of mid-season varieties that
have little advantage over each other,
such as Ruby, Knickerbocker and
Amory, among the bloods, and Prolific
and Paper Rlnd among the St. Michaels.
Among the late oranges, know of no
superior to Harts Late; the tree, in my
experience, stood the last cold, as well,
or better, than any other variety. The
Valencia Late is also desirable.
LYMAN PHELPs.-I have nothing to
add to what my friend has said. ap-
prove of everything in his very judicious
statement. There are many new oranges
which l think in time will prove satls-
factory and desirable, but until l have
heard from them for years, and their
good qualities are we'll determined, do
not recommend them to this Sociery.
There is one new variety, down at Fort
The Florida agriculturist. [volume] (DeLand, Fla.) 1878-1911, 1895-07-24

Myers, which originally came from
South America, which | think IS quite
the equal of Hart's Late; it is ready to
ship little earlier, and it is Of a little
finer texture; [ would add this variety to
the list of desirable late oranges; it has
no name, and 1T has been proposed that
the Executive Committee of this Society
name it. The Valencia Late, consider
a mostsuperior orange, and taking every
thing into account, | prefer it to any Of
the fully tested late varieties. The Malta
varieties, all Of them, will always pay.
With one exception, the variety known
as Gray's Mediterranean Sweet, which |
do not recommend, would say, cultivate
the Malta varieties.
I'll. B. STEvENs.-In our section we
prize the Pineapple orange very highly;
it is heavy, smooth fruit good bearer,
good shipper, and comes into bearing
early-that is to say, the trees bear
young-it ripens in mid-season. For an
all-round orange we like it best.
Mr.. MANvILLE.-I remember seeing a
foot-note by the Pomologist Of the Agri-
cultural Department, at Washington,
referring to the Pineapple orange as
shy bearer, and [ would like to ask Mr..
Stevens as to it's bearing qualities.
MR.. STEvENs.-It bears the best of
anything we have. The first tree of this
variety that ever bore, is in my vicinity,
and when the bud was eight months old,
1t bore two oranges. We have thirty
acres planted in this variety; the trees
when set out were two-year-old buds,
the first of them being planted in 1889.
| don't remember what the yield was
the first year or two, but last year we
shipped 1,7OO boxes from this thirty
acres, and we find this part of our Citra
grove pays us better than any grove we
have.
III. E. ANDERsON.-1 find the Pineap-
pie very profitable variety, and often
wish had more of them, With me they
are a very rapid grower. The Nonpareil,
which Mr.. Hubbard has referred to,
like very much, it makes large tree,
and is very prolific. And l am very
much In favor of Hart's Late, as [ al
ways get big price for this variety.
J. B. ANDERsON.-I am inclined to
think that Mr. Stevens, and his
neighbors, have monopoly of the Pine
apple orange. The aroma and other
distinctive qualities, that are developed
to such marked degree upon the soil
of the Citra district, are not in my ex-
perience, developed to anything like
this extent elsewhere. We have the
Pineapple variety upon both pine and
hammock land, and when the fruit is
ripe no one can tell that they are dis
tinctive variety, On the other hand,
the Pineapple orange from Orange Lake,
in season, and when ripe, has peculiar
pineapple flavor, and when placed along
side of ordinary oranges, the fruit is

readily distinguishable by it's aroma, as
we'll as it's appearance. lhave concluded,
therefore, that the Pineapple orange, as
known in market, by it's distinctive quail
tiles, will remain the exclusive product
of the Citra district.
A number OF members demurred from
Mr.. Anderson's s conclusion, maintaining
that the peculiar and desirable charac'
teristics of the Pineapple orange were
more inherent in the variety, and less at
trlbutable to the effect of soil than he
contended.
Mr.. PHELPs.-I would like to bear
testimony to Ghe fact that soil and air
play an important part in making fruit.
Atmospheric conditions are as important
to fruit production as to the handling OF
tobacco. The effect of climate in m ak
ing cigars is we'll known. A cigar is
made in the climate of Tampa that can
not be made in any other part OF the
State. These conditions effect oul
plants as they do the tobacco. There il
flavor about an orange grown in par
ticular locality, that you do not fine
elsewhere Men who look into these
things are finding this out. agree with
Mr.. Anderson, that Orange Lake has a
monopoly of the Pineapple orange.
W. S. HART-l would like little
more information about Boone's Early.
l have been given the impression that
the tree was poor grower l should
like to hear from those who have had
experience as to this.
w. H. I'll. HOLDRIDGE.-I have num-
Der OF Boone's Early trees, and find them
very strong growers. At one year from
the planting several of my trees bore,
but did not sustain their character for
earliness In that first bearing, they were
not fiji to eat early, and did not ripen
until mid-seasOn.
Mr.. HUBBARD. specimens OF
this variety, which | saw at Sanford
some years ago, at the time it was named
by the Executive Committee, gave evil
dence of being strong hybrid with the
grape fruit. The character of the fruit
was quite diverse, most of the specimens
were light colored with calyx quite dis
tinct Some of them resembled the
Maltas quite closely. Some had hardly
any seeds and were of fine texture. but
others were coarse and quite seedy.
The fruit, as examined at that time,
did not seem to be thoroughly estab-
lished. think it would take cdlture and
selection to establish the seedless and
early sweetening type of the fruit, before
the variety would become valuable.
The fact that the fruit on Mr.. Hold
ridges young trees was not early is not
significant, many early oranges, when
first budded, and when the tree Is grow
ing vigorously, will be coarse and acid;
they won't show very early ripening
qualities until the tree has got size and

Commercial Fertilizers and Electricity in
Il L. Ii
Relation to Soils.

Relation to Soils.
The commercial fertilizers as sold in
the market average to the ton about 24O
pounds of phosphoric acid, sixty pounds
of potash alkali, forty pounds of nitro
gen. Several observers have noticed
that when gypsum Gall acid phosphates
contain large quantities of it) is mixed
with decaying org ganic matter, it acts as
preservative, and that the loss of nitro
gen from the materials of free nitrogen
gas is leSsened.
! Morson has observed, moreover, in an
experiment where five per cent of gyp-
sum was added to blood, bone meal and
horn meal, that the decaying mat ters
remained slightly acid and lost consider
ably less of their nitrogen than when
they were allowed to ferment, either by
themselves or admixed with earth. In
the absence of gypsum the materials be-
came alkaline and evidently fermented
in different way. Gypsum speedily
comb bined with certain soluble organic
matter in the manure and made them
insoluble, and so tended to preserve the
manure and the nitrogen in it, or at the
least hinder decay.
Some of the matters thus fixed by the
gypsum are precisely those which would
naturally decay most readily if left to
themselves. Waste phosphate gypsum
from superphosphate works is even more
effective than ordinary gypsum manure.
In using acid phosphate, a certain
amount of care should be exercised lest
this substance injure the seed or the
growing crop.
1t may do positive harm to root crops
because the soluble phos-acid is not all
precipitated quickly enough Whenever
earthly phosphates exist with organic
matter, water will invariably dissolve
portion progressively with the decompo-
sition of the organic matter by fermen-
tation.
This fact is of the utmost importance
to agriculture No manure, no salt, no
com binatiOn of salts, gives full Vigor to
vegetation when nitrogen is absent. Nj
trogen not only measures but gives the
value to manure.
