With a better understanding of the
Wv transient nature of the many phys
ical ills, which vanish before proper eff
forts-gentle cfforts-pleasant efforts
rightly directed There is comfort in
the knowledge, that so many forms OF
sickness are not due to any actual dis
ease, but simply to n constipatedc onc.-
ton of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrupo of Figs. prompt
ly removes. That is why il is the only
remedy with millions of families. and "a
everywhere esteemed SO highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects are due to the fact, that it is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness without facilitating the
organs on which it acts. IL is therefore
ali important, in order to get its bene-

chase, that YOU have the genuine arti-
Gle, which is manufactured by the Cali

If in the enjoyment of good health,
and the system is regular, laxatlves or
other remedies are then not needed If
afflicted with any actual disease, one

physicians, but If in need of a laxative,
one should have the best, and with the

Discussion of the Resumption Of ReIa-

New YORK. Jan. ga special to the
World from Caracas. Venezuela, says:
George Jorge Uzlar has arrived from the
United States and delivered to President
Crespo message from President Cleve-
land asking the people of Venezuela to re-
frain from violence during the present
crisis.
In an interview Dr. Rojas, the minister
OF foreign affairs, authorizes the announce
ment that Venezuela will gladly assist the
United States commission, and will place
at its disposal the official records. Vene-
zuela has committee collecting data from
the Libraries in Caracas, and soon will be
ready to present its case.
Nicholas Biddle, the correspondent here
for the New York Herald, has made a
sworn complaint before the American
minister of his arrest. He was taking pho
tographs in the streets of La Guayara and
was thought 10 be an English spy seeking
information in regard to the Notifications.
The authorities of La Guayara refused to
accept his explanation, although he was
| identified by colonel in the Venezuelan
| army. He was taken to Machuteo, where
| President Crespo is, and there was re-
| leased.

Offering 81 100000 to aid Venezuela
against England, were true, the govern

mediately for political reasons.
The Diaro de Caracas, a semi-official or
gan, brands General Domingo Monagas AS
q traitor. 1t says the recent revolution was
organized with money paid him by the
present government.
Reports come from points on the western
coast that the revolutionists are still active
there and that General Recart is trying to
drive the guerillas into the swamp.
Editor Simon Barcelo, an American now
in prison, was formerly a warm personal
friend of President Crespo. He publishes

the government and asking for the reasons
why he is confined. He demands a lawful
trial.
The question of England treating direct
ly with Venezuela on the subject of the
Guiana boundary is discussed at length in
the press. The general impression is that
TO do so would be discourteous to the
American commission.
The official gazette credits DR.. Petrez as
minister to Germany and Spain. and is in
formed on good authority that there is to
he renewal of diplomatic relations with
France and Germany. which were severed
by President Crespo dismissing the min
listers of those countries last April for pro-
posing mixed tribunal to pass upon

This was Carmel's initial race over the
jumps and Judging by the manner in
which the money went in on him, it is evil
dent he had been carefully reserved for
this event, for he won with consummate
ease, Barney Schrieber's Janus at 80 to 4,
came from nowhere at the end and secured
the place from Col. Weigbtman.
Strathmeath, another of Green B. Norris
cracks, was thought to have the handicap
at his mercy, but the old horse went lame
and was beaten out by Logan, who won
pulling up.

Growing Tobacco

Director William Stowe Devol of the
experiment station, Tucson, Ariz., fur
nishes the following brief directions for
growing tobacco:
There is enough seed in one package
to produce over 500 plants, if properly
treated. Select good soil containing
about half sand and place in {: box about
by feet in area and or inches deep
and scatter the seed in narrow lines
across the box. Sprinkle fine soil and
sand over the seed until just covered
set in a moderately warm place and keep
the soil moist The seed may be started
out of doors under a shelter of brush,
lath or cloth. When the leaves attain
diameter of three fourths of an inch
give the plants the full sunlight, and
as soon as the leaves attain the size of
a silver dollar set the plants in the field
in rows. The rows should be about315
feet apart and the plants 21a to feet
apart in the rows. The soil should be
rich and well cultivated. Wet the plants
well before transp!anting and do not let
them dry and wither after planting in
the field. Keep the surface of the soil
well stirred and mellow about the plants,
cultivating with horse cultivator as
soon as the plants are large enough.
Pinch off the flower buds. as soon as
they appar and at the same time remove
four of five of the lower leaves, permit
ting about twelve leaves to remain upon
each plant to mature All branches or
suckers" appearing in the axils of the
leaves should be pinched out and care
should be taken to pick off and kilAall
worms as they appear. In about three
months the leaves will turn a greenish
yellow, and become thick and brittle,
breaking when bent between the fing
ers The tobacco is then ready for har
yeSting.

Smut in Grain

To get rid of smut in grain: "By the
latter weather treatment the seed is i'm
mersed for few minutes in scalding
water. The hot water kills the smut
spores without injury to the grain. The
water should be kept at temperature
of 1929 degrees, not rising above 1856
degrees. A ten to fifteen minutes i'm
mersion is recommended. In treating
large quantities of seed it is best to
first warm the grain by placing it for
a few minutes in warm water Q10 to
130 degrees), as this will enable one to
keep the first vessel of hot water at
more even temperature. The grain
when immersed in the large vessel of
hot water should be placed in a basket
or gunnysack or any convenient uten-
sill that will allow free and even access
to the hot water. After withdrawing
the seed from the hot water plunge it
into cold water and spread out to dry"

Tucson
