Two Books that VIII Compare Favor
ably With Any.
The Fourth Reader of the State school
book series is now printed and in the
hands of the binder, and the Third Reader
will soon be finished. Both will be ready
for market about July 1st. They will
take the place of the cumbersome Third
Reader which the law at first un1ortu-
nately limited the series to.
Both readers will be finely illustrated
by appropriate engravings, which will
bear close omparison with those i'll any
set of readers published by private pub
fishing firms.
The ieading matter is new and carefully
selected. Many of the lessons are well
calculated to give the children good idea
OF the different parts of their native State
and the scenes and productions to be met
with. Many lessons bring before the pu-
pills the myths that are hoary with an
tiquity, and which, as general thing. are
familiar to classical students, but which
are here presented in such simple and
attractive form that the veriest child cam
not help understand and being interested
by them. They will not only interest,
but will arouse in the minds of pupils a
thirst for more knowledge of the fairy
land where such gems of story are to be
found, and thus will awaken a taste for
reading. The pages of biography and of
high-c class literature have not been ne
elected either. and taken all in all it will
be hard to find a set of readers in the
market with as many points of excellence
as those published by our State.

NOT LIKE THE CODES

The Copies of Laws of the Lnst Session
Which Were Ordered Printed.
At the last session of the Legislature
the following concurrent resolution was
passed:
"ResolUed, That the State Printer be
instructed 10 cause to be prepared and
printed an edition of $4,000 copies of the
general laws, amendments to the codes
and proposed constitutional amendments
passed at this session, the same to be
stitched, but not bound Or covered. and
to be distributed, under the direction of
the Secretary of State, to the County
Clerks OF the various counties in proper
ton to the population OF the different
counties, for free distribution to the elect
ors thereof"
AS the State Printer is in receipt of
many letters from attorneys and others
inquiring when they will be ready, he
desires to notify the public that the con-
templated publications are not such
books as lawyers would want, for tho rea-
son that they are to be simply pamphlets
and not fac-similes of the codes.
However, there was no money appro-
priated with which to have them printed
and it is not now apparent that they will
bo issued.

A MURDEROUS WEAPON.

Found on K Street, Where 1t Had
Been dropped.
Officer Bagley has in his possession q
unique and very effective weapon which
some thug dropped on X street on Tues
day night. 1t is in the nature of a slung-
shot, but constructed more on the sand
club order.
The weapon consists OF strip of cam
vas. apparently cut from wagon-cover,
in one end of which is a pocket just large
enough to hold tive-pound bag of shot.
1t was thus loaded and ready for use
when found. The canvas is about two
feet long, tapering in width from the
pocket.
With the small end twisted about a
mans hand a good blow from it would
probably fell horse. The bag of shot
bears the brand Of Schaw, Ingram 4
hatcher. and it was probably stolen from
their store or from one of their Gus
toners.
Evidently the thugs and crooks have
recovered from the scare of last January
and are again making their home with us.

Poor land cannot produce good crops,

There is no need of making butter at a

FARM AND ORCHARD.
The Commercial Importance of
the Tomato Considered.
It's Development and Future Cultiva-
ton Under Glass-Thotsands of
Acres In Various States Devoted to
the Crop-Formerly Regarded Only
as Ornamental - General Farm
Notes.

Tomatoes were the subject Of recent
discourse before the Massachusetts Hor-
ticultural Society by Prof. w. w. Mum
son. of the Maine State College Expert
ment Station, at Orono, Ne. He called
attention to the fact that next to the
potato stands the tomato among garden
vegetables, in commercial importance.
Thousands of acres in New jersey. Della
ware, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, and he
might have added Florida, are devoted
to the crop, and the canning establish
ments are very large. 1t seems that the
first introduction of canned tomatoes was
10 far back as lS4S. when Harrison w.
Crosby, Of Lafayette College, at Eaton,
Pa, placed them with wholesale grocers;
now there are nearly 100000 cases of
twenty-four cans each marketed from
canning factories in the United States.
Professor Munson's botanical state
ment of the varieties is of no practical
importance to those who wish to grow the
tomato. 1t may be simply SAID that the
currant or cherry tomato and the ordl-
nary apple tomato are both in their f1rst
forms natives of Peru and Brazil, bat the
latter grows wild as far north as Texas
tivated as ornamental plants in Europe
more than three centuries ago, and, in
deed, although the fruit was used as food
AS early as 1888 in Southern Europe, it
was not greatly regarded anywhere until
the last part of the eighteenth century.
In the days of our fethers-th1s is not a
part of Professor Munson's talk-the to-
nato was hardly recognized in New Eng
land as eatable; it had its place in gar
dens as the love APPLE" and was occa-
sionally eaten, but mainly regarded as
ornamental. Now it has become one of
the most widely cultivated of vegetable
crops though it is rather thought of as a
sauce to food than food itself The great
improvement of the tomato is due to the
patient scientific labors OF experlmenters
mot only at such stations as Professor
Munson manages, but by many private
persons who are devoted TO farming.
The Professor thinks that, notwithstand-
ing the merits OF the General Grant,
Trophy, Paragon and others, which he

ing variety, and the Professor made men
tion OF the work done to secure such and
the plans for crossing varieties. Among
other things he says: Many attempts
have been made to produce yellow fruit
with a distinctly blush cheek, but with
no satisfactory result. We have repeat
edly crossed the red and yellow varieties,
but always with red-fruited results. The
same plants produce much more highly
colored fruit in February and March
