| of tho most profitable crops I ever
raised on my farm was crop OF goose
berries. Many think that 1t is haro
crop to grow to perfection. but l think
that with the assistance OF the spray
ing pump we can succeed. They DO
best on a cool, low. heavy soil, ana the
only instance where they have SUI
fered from mildew with me has been on
high sandy land. Now we Will nave
some trouble with blight as long as
we use the English gooseberry, ana the
English Is the best. OF course, there
are new and large gooseberries coming
out all the time, but all that are OF
good size have more or less Engllsn
blood in them. Nearly all OF those Ell
glish gooseberries make wood too SLOW
ly to please the Americans, for we want
to make money fast and want the
bushes to reach maturity at an early
date.
O.-What about the Red Jacket?
Mr., Willard.-It is pretty good, but !
think the best gooseberry is the Whlte
Smith. In this country It is not SO
much quality that we want as quantity.
The English, on the other hand, de-
mand a gooseberry Of good quality.
Q.-How do you like the Houghton!
Alt is too small.
Q.-How is the Downing?
Alt is a good berry, but the mar
ket wants the large English gooseberry.
Some OF our American nurseries have
tried to get large American berry, but
1t has not yet been done. They nave
succeeded in getting large berries oniy
by infusing the English strain, and with
1t the liability to mildew. bought
10000 White Smith gooseberry bushes
from England and put them on rich'
sandy soil. They cost $11 per hun
dred. and got only one crop OF berries
from them. They mildewed and had
to dig them up. had them on the
wrong kind OF land. Afterwards got
more and put them In clay soil.
Q.-What have you to say about the
practice of picking gooseberries by
stripping OF the berries, leaves and all
and running them through tanning
mill?
Al would not have any berries
picked In that manner. because It
takes away the foliage. which is needed
to ripen the wood and develop the buds
for the next year.
Q.-What is the quality Of the Colum-
bus?
Al can't say. for we do not allow
them to get ripe enough to tell vhnt
the quality would be. We pick them
green.

A careful investigation Of the public

lands in Oklahoma yet subject to home
stead entry and settlement
It has generally been understood that
all the lands In Oklahoma fit for asri-
cultural purposes are already occupied.
but such Is not the fact. Owing to the
method adopted for the opening Of these
lands to settlement. in many cases N
high as five or six persons would settle
on single track on the day Of the race
and rather than stand the expense of q

BILE. would. unknown to each other,
abandon the land. Again. the main
race for lands at those openings was for
tracts near the cities or proposed town
sites and along the lines Of railroads,
and thus many hundreds OF almost
equally Us good farms as are In Okla
homa were pasesd over in the mad rush
for homes.
It Is truc that n large portion Of tho
yet unclaimed public lands are more At
for stock-raising than for agricultural
purposes: yet there are still hundreds Of
good homes awaiting the taking In that

The policy of the government Of Chill Is
decidedly against arbitration as a method OF
settling international controversies. and the
tion adopted at the international American
conference were Of the delegates from that
country, acting under In 'tructions from their
government. Chill Is the only nation Of
conquest on the American continent. and
seeks to annex Bolivia and Peru and PET.
haps Ecuador to Its present territory. While
such a policy has never lecn formally de-
clareL, 1t Is nevertheless thn ambition OF the
people to enlarge their domains, and they
consider i the manifest destiny of that ng.

Chill also has n boundary dispute with the
Argentine Republic which might possibly re-
lulre adjustment within the next few years,
arc afraid tie principle OF arbitration might
not apply very well TO that case. At least,
they prefer to settle the controversy them
