patches of cold sweat cover the body.
In other cases the symptoms are less
urgent; the animal is dull and stands
with the head low aud limbs extended
the pulse may be very fast yet weak, the
nostrils are stretched to their utmost
and the breathing is very rapid, the
countenance betokens anxiety and the
eyes are bloodshot.
In a case of SunStrOke when the ami
NAL has fallen it should be Immediately
protected from the suns rays. When
the earlier symptoms are observed the
animal should be at once unhitched and
led to shady place and often, if allowed
to stand quietly, the attack will pass off.
When the animal has fallen apply cold
water to the head and neck or water
may be douched over the animal, but
should this cause commissions it must be
at once discontinued. Give drench of
whisky, nitrous ether, or turpentine.
Three teaspoonfuls of the strong solu-
tion of ammonia in quart of water is a
good remedy. Two tablespoonfuls of
aqua ammonia may be substituted for
the stronger solution. If the animal
cannot swallow weak solutions of either
OF the above stimulants should be given
per reCtum.
The limbs should be thoroughly hand
rubbed with mustard and water, spirits
Of camphor or a weak solution of ammo
mia water. If neither of the above are
handy use whisky.
In a case of overheating, when the
pulse is fast and weak, hot rugs applied
to head, neck and back will give the
best results. If in an hour the pulse
has not recovered more or less of it's
healthy tone, repeat the stimulant.
It must ever be borne in mind that
treatment is not satisfactory and that
should the patient recover 50 far as to
get upon it's legs it will be very weak
and shall struggle to retain the standing
position even to harming itself. Good
feeding with course of tonics will be
demanded for some time.
This disease is easier prevented than
cured. When the mules are at work, it
one of them is observed not to be sweating
as freely as it's fellows, it's instant re-
moval to the shade should be ordered
and drink of cool water may be al

Because Gno AGRICULTURIST mas re-
fused to condemn in wholesale measures
and without limit the transportat ion
companies of Florida it has often been
chided with being the "creature Of the
soulless corporations. Because it has
declined to fill It's columns week after
week with complaints and charges, abuse
and denunciation of the railroads of the
State some have been so mean as to think
that it was in sympathy with the oppres-
sion by the railroads of the people. OF
course these charges have not disturbed
us in the least, for they were made as a
rule by those who have not duly consid
cred the matter.
We have locked upon the railroads of
Florida as co-partners with the people
who were laboring for the development
of the State. 1t is patent to all that
with the present mileage in Florida the
transportation companies mustlook more
to the future than to the present for
their profit. The amount of material
produced in the State for transportation
would at the maximum price charged
hardly pay running expenses of the road,
hence it is evident that the roads must
depend on an increase of produc ton and
a continued development of the State
and it's resources for its profits.
This condition is especially true now
since the freeze has cut off the orange
crop of the State. At the very best and
under the most favorable conditions it
will be five or six years before the orange
crop of Florida will give the transporta-
tion companies much business, and even
after that time and for several years the
business will not equal that of the four
or five seasons Immediately preceding
the freeze of 1895.
The AGRICULTURIsT has not thought
that the transportation companies gave
all of the encouragement in their power
to the producers of the State, and espe-
cially was this true in reference to the
new industries struggling for footing.
But we do not think that the matter of
abusing the companies helped any or
caused them to give lower rates or more
encouragement. Railroads are in the
business for the money they can make,
and the way to proceed in the matter of
getting better rates is to demonstrate to
the companies that they can make more
money by giving lower rates, not by
abusing them and calling them thieves
and robbers and anything else that comes
to mind.
1t must be evident to all that the rail-
roads must do something to encourage
increased production during the next
five or ten years, and that unless the
products of the State are largely in
creased they will either have to go out
of business or lose money. We know of
but one way to encourage the raising of
more crops AMI that is by Offering the
raisers some cheap method of getting
them to market. At present With the
existing rates there are no inducements
to the farmer and gardener. After labor
ing for months to produce marketable
m aterial the producer is confronted with

PEOPLE do not say very much about
the phosphate industry at present, and one not
acquainted with the true condition would be in
clned to think that the phosphate interest of
the State had collapsed. This is not true by
any means. Thousands Of tons of the material
are being mined and shipped abroad and in re-
turn the golden dollars are coming this way.
Phosphate mining has reached business level;
all of the boom and wind has been taken out Of
it. but it is of the Industries of the State just
the same, and one that brings thousands upon
thousands of dollars into circulation here.

SOME of the counties of the State are
moving at lively rate in the matter of collect
ing an exhibit or the Southern Exposition. Els
pecialy is this true of the western counties, but
some of the South Florida counties are also in
the field and do themselves proud" OF course
they are laboring under disadvantages, but
they not in the least discouraged.

MARX W. HARRINGTON has been de.
posed as chief of the weather bureau Personally
the AGRICULTURIsT has nothing to say against
Mr. Harrington, but on general principles it
thinks Mr. Cleaveland did right, and we only re-
greet that the action was not taken before the
February freeze. Any weather clerk who would
infict people with such weather as Mr.. Har-
rington gave Florida last February deserves to
be decapitated.

The rainy season has now set in in
earnest and from the way it has started it is
evident that we will have one OF the old fash.
Toned rainy seasons the "oldest inhabitants''
talk about. 1t ia said by these "Oldest inhabi-
tants" that these rainy seasons have been get
ting shorter and shorter for several years, and
that the amount Of precipitation was smaller.

to Morstan's share as well rs to
my own. l wish you, therefore, to
make restitution. Put your ears down
to my mouth. The treasure is hidden
in At this instant n horrible change
came over his expression; his eyes
stared wildly, his jaw dropped, and he
yelled in n voice I can never forget:
Keep him out! For Christ's sake keep
him out" We both stared round at the
window behind US upon which his gaze
was fixed. face was looking in at us
out Of the darkness. We could see the
whitening Of the nose where it was
pressed against the glass. It was a
bearded, hairy face, with wild, cruel
eyes and an expression of concentrated
malevolence. My brother and I rushed
towards the window, but the man was
gone. When we returned to my father
his head had dropped and his pulse had
ceased TO beat.
but found no sign of the intruder, save
chat just under the window single
footmark was visible in the aower-bed.
But for that one trace, we might have
thought that our inaginations had con-
jured up that wild, fierce face. We
soon, however, had another and more
striking proof that there were secret
agencies at work all around us. The
window Of my fathers room wns found
open in the morning, his cupboards and
boxes had been rihed, and upon his
chest was fixed torn piece Of paper,
with the words The sign Of the four
scrawled across it. What the phrase
meant, or who our secret visitor may
have been, we never knew. As far as
we can judge, none of my fathers
property had been actually stolen,
though everything had been turned
out. My brother and naturally asso-
ciated this peculiar incident with the
fear which haunted my father during
his life; but it is still q complete mys-
terry to u.s."
The little man stopped to relight his
hoolsah, and puffed thoughtfully for
few moments. We had all sat n absorbed,
listening to his extraordinary narra-
tive. At the short account of her fa-
theirs death Miss Morstan had turned
deadly white, and for a moment !
fearc that she was about to faint. She
rallied, however, on drinking glass of
water which quietly poured out for
her from Venetian carafe upon the
side table. Sherlock Holmes leaned
back in his chair with an abstracted
expression and the lids drawn low
over his glittering cpcs. AS glanced
at him could not but think how on
that very day he had complained bit
tcrly of the comrnonplaceness Of life.
Here, at least, was problem which
would tax his sagacity to the utmost.
Mr.. Thaddeus Sholto looked from one to
the other Of us with an obvious pride
at the effect which his story had pro-
duccd, and then continued between
the puffs Of his overgrown pipe.
"My brother and l." said he, " were,
as you may imagine, much excited as
to the treasure which my father had
spoken Of For weeks and for months

we dug and delved in every part of the
garden, without discovering its where
abouts. 1t was maddening to think
that the hiding place was on his very
lips Mt the moment that he died. We
could judge the splendor of the missing
Siches by the chaplet which he bad
taken out. Over this chaplet my
brother Bartholomew and had some
little discussion. The pearls were evil
IDENTITY of great value, and he was
averse to part with them, for, between
friends, my brother was himself lit
tie inclined to my fathers fault. He
thought, too, that II we parted with
the chaplet it might give rise to gossip.
and finally bring us into trouble. It
was all that could do to persuade him
to let me find out Miss Morstan's ad-
dress and send her detached pearl at
fixed intervals, so that, ut least, she
might never feel destitute"
