WATERNELONS FOR SEED.
Are Raised by the Hundred Acres in
Western Kansas.

Samuel L. Howe. chairman of the State
Board Of Railroad Commissioners, who
has returned form trip through south
Western Kansas. reports new industry in
that section. 1t is melon raising.
Watermelons aud muskmelOns are raised
for the seed which is shipped to the
different states by the carload. Kearney
county seems to be the center Of the
melon growing country. A forty acre
field of melons out there is not an I'M
common site. Henry Downing, residing
near Deerfield has 100 acres. Mr.. Howe
heard Of man over in Stevens county
who had planted $40 acres in melons.
D. NJ. Ferry & Co.. the big seed people
of Detroit, bought the bulk of their
melon seeds last year from farmers in the
vicinity of Deertield. The land upon
which the melons are raised is irrigated
from the Arkansas river.

The heavy rains have taken the people
by surprise aud no one INDUCES in that
exultation of feeling Of prosperity so
characteristic of the people years ago
when good rains revived the hopes to a
high pitch of enthusiasn-sent up the
price of lands and enlarged the boom.
1t will require several good rains to re-
vive the hopes of the people to an extent
seemingly enjoyable. Perhaps the long
drouth stricken penitent will begin soon
to recover his surprise aud will put in
the ''burnt-out'' acreage such crops as
will mature during the season. Hicks
and other weather prophets have put
June in the calender of big rains; and the
heavy SHOWS in the mountains will no
doubt bear them out in this prognostica-
ten.

ACard to the Public.

The negotiations which have been
pending between N. B. Klaine and my
self for the past week or two culminat-
ed last Monday in sale of the GLOBE
REPUBLICAN establishment. In dispos-
ing of this concern we feel that we could
not have found man better fitted and
qualified to give universal satisfaction to
the patrons of the paper than Mr.. Klalne.
His return to the field of journalism here
in Dodge City where he is so we'll and
favorably known will be hailed with de-
light by hosts of old time friends, and
we can heartily recommend him to such
of our readers as have not already known
him. as newspaper man Of much more
than average ability, and deep thinker.
who will use his best efforts to advance
the interests of this region. In con-
we extend our heartfelt thanks
to the friends who have favored this
paper their patronage while under our
and assure them that their
continued good will to tile paper will be
a source of pleasure to the undersigned.

ORCHARD AND GARDEN.

TOBACCO water will destroy bugs and
worms in rosebushes.
SALT sprinkled on the ground around
them is good for ounce trees.
NEVER apply coarse, fresh manure
close around the stems of the trees.
In the orchard, as elsewhere, do not
try to spread over too much ground.
The plum does best when planted
clos ely, twelve to fifteen feet being q
good distance.
i RHUBARB plants can now be covered
with manure and the covering be left
on until spring.
ALL roots, such as beets, parsnips,
:etc.. will keep fresh all winter If
packed in sand in the cellar.
BY banking up all fall-planted trees
injury from the heaving during the
winter may be largely prevented.
ANY attempt to change the form of
tree after it commences to bear is
almost certain to damage the tree seri-
Iously.
GRAPES in open ground that are
pruned in the fall should be laid down
and kept down by weighing to hold
them in place.
MULcHINe greatly assists in pro-
tecting strawberry plants during the
winter. 1t should be applied as soon
as the ground freezes.
In the fall is good time to plant
rows of evergreens in such positions
that they will shelter the orchards and
buildings from cold winds
REPoTTINe of plants becomes neces-
sary at intervals for two reasons,
namely. the plant uses up the availa-
BILE fertility in the soil and fills the pot
with roots.
. Soor-wATER is a safe and efficient
fertilizer for all kinds of plants grow
ing in pots. Generally, the better plan
Is to put SCOT in water and use it in
watering the plants.

Civflization's PROGRESS.

| An English writer who has taken some
pains to look up the subject finds that
modern and ancient history furnishes no
comparison 10 the physical, mechanical
and intellectual development of the
United States.'' In the United States
workingman furnishes subsistence to
three or four times the number Of people
! that European does. With this state
ment before US we must consider that
these greater possibilities are developed
from brain and physical force. And
with such a magnificent equipment an
almost insurmountable barrier can be re-
moved. And this is what the Western
man is doing. Western thrift is proven
bal. Discouragements make little head
way in the march OF progress westward.
1t is true that many weary in the effort
and fall by the wayside but there are no
wheels of carnage to trample them to
death as the pilgrimage moves on.
When it is stated that the semi-arid
regions are unfit for man a disregard is
shown for the truth. The same energy
and will power that overcame all early
settlements will place the semi-arid
regions in possession of prosperity.
We have the English statstician to bear
out this statement. The same spirit
dominates every American, and in the
progress of civilization this spirit is i'm
bued with higher power as it encounters
obstacles.
In this western country necessity will
remove the hinderances to development.
Were there no means or resources man
might take backward course; but here
is the wind and here is the water. How
to utilize these means is the problem we
must deal with. The reverses of two
years were object lessons, and in these
experiences the ingenuity Of man is equal
to the emergency.
Il ought to make man in this western
country feel proud that he is the pioneer
in work that has no comparison to eX-
listing conditions in Europe, and that he
is the foreman in civilization that is un.
known in modern and ancient history.
The American is unmatched in inven-
tive genius; in his sublime character of
progression, in his energy and in his
thrift. With these consoling facts may
we not regard him as competent to meet
the emergencies which confront him in
the subjugation OF the barren soil:
In his economy he will harness the
wind and bring it to its highest utilizing
power in the spreading of the underflow
Of water that underlies this soil in mex
haustible quantities. And in his ex-
periences every experiment affords some
new device Of greater utility than the
preceding one. in carrying out his plans.

"Can an editor be chlistian:" This
was the topic Of discussion over Bible
lesson in the Dodge City Presby terrain
Bible class at the prayer meeting this
week. The question was left undecided,
with a view perhaps of giving the editor
chance. The GLOBE-REPUBLICAN is
laboring under the impression that all
editors are christlans-it requires chris
tian to be an editor. When a man be-
Genes SO much imbued with religious
conviction that he cannot edit country
newspaper. he ought, like Elijah Of old,
he translated to his fathers. and ornament
the christian dome in the heavens. Very
likely in Western Kansas, religious duty
and newspaper work when conducted to-
gether are inconsistent vacations in
life, but we believe every newspaper
man ought to be inbued with ti1ge of
religious conviction, enough, at any rate.
to keep him from becoming lOpsided, IN
both mind and body.
Next to the preacher, the newspapers
exert a moral force; but the preacher
would not do for an editor and the editor
would not do for preacher. Here is
where the difference exists, and yet they
both advocate morality-that is depend
ing on the kind Of preachers and the
kind of editors.
