Tea in NorthD akota.

The Philadelphia Grocery World OF
May 25 says:
When asked what products are
grown from North Dakota soil, one
thinks readily of wheat, rye, oats and
flax, but who in the world would
name tea as one of the cultivatable
crops? Yet tea is grown, and grown
successfully, in North Dakota. State
Commissioner of Agriculture Laugh
lin has made the discovery that col
ony consisting of twenty Russian
families in Mercer county raised tea
last year from seed obtained from
Russia. The experiment is reported
to have been a decided success, and
tea culture will be tried on much
larger scale in that state this year.
It is known as the Asiatic-Russian
tea plant, and the quality is said to
be every way superior to the black
tea sold by merchants.

Grubs and Grubs.

White grubs are detested by straw
berry growers for they eat off the
roots before their presence can be
ascertained and the only satisfaction
obtained is to pull up the plant, dig
up and destroy the invader. Fred
Grundy originated the statement that
the grub originated in stable manure
and then cut off the strawberry root.
Here are two half truths but the two
do not make one whole. Round
bodied, plump, with pearly appear
ance, slow moving, either forward or
backward the white grubs are found
bv the hundreds in rotted manure,
under compost heaps and in ground
of high fertility In the richest cor
ner of my strawberry ground | found
fifty in two foot square but not

Mr.. Humphrey H. Lemons Narrow
Escape From Being Killed.
Mr.. Humphrey H. Lemon came near be-
Ing killed by cable car this morning. The
accident happened near the curve in the
Capital Traction Company's tracks in front
Of the Garfield statue, at the Maryland
avenue entrance to the Capitol grounds.
Several years ago Mr.. Lemon, who is now
about sixty, accidentally fell through coal
hole In the Capitol building where he was
employed as a member of the police force,
and was almost killed. So serious we're his
injuries that he lost his hearing and i'm
paired his eyesight. His congressional
friends passed an act in which he was
named as uatchman for duty III the dome
Of the big building.
He lives at SOB Maryland avenue south
west. and was on his way to work this
morning when he met with the accident
which may yet prove fatal.
The cable train was running around the
curve as the pedestrian neared the track.
and tie gripman rang his bell to warn him
of the danger. Being deaf. however, he
could not hear the sound of the bell. and
so he walked right in the way of the heavy
cars.
The gripman put down the brakes, but
Mr.. Lemon was struck and knocked down.
He was taken to the Emergency Hospital
where the doctors found that his nose ha d
been fractured and his face cut, in addition
to possible internal injuries.
After his injuries were dressed he was
sent home.

1t is doubtful If ever before was the capt.

this morning, after night OF terror they
found the streets covered with debris and
everywhere were evidences of a more gem
eral destruction by the wind than has ever
been known before. Fortunately, no lives
were lost. though several persons were
severely injured by falling walls and fly

The daily weather map in yesterdays
Star showed clearly that there was trouble
ahead for the people living on the At

closeness were shown in the area over
southern Georgia, and indicated the pres

ing what is popularity known as the equin-
octial season, the sun having crossed the
meridian on the 21st instant, heavy storms
are to be expected, and there was no sur

promised rain and dangerous gales for
