Three well-directed shots from the OBJ

talent were no match for European troors,
and that despite their much-boasted gen.

crushed the Hovas in their own strong
mold. AT $50 flag of truce was hoisted
at the palace, and all firing ceased, and at
the same time two Malagasy officers were

down to meet them. A brief moment or

and proclaimed the unconditional surren-

After a short time French troops filed
down the hillsides and entered the city
from various parts, and took possession Of
the two palaces, the telegraph offices, the
residency, and other buildings throughout
the city. Guards were posted and every
precaution taken to enforce law and order.

THE OLIVE BRANCH.
England Appreciates Our Atti-

THE PAPERS SHOW GRATITUDE.
Concessions Can Be Made, Says the
Times-Favorable Official Letter on
Venezuela Sent to Bayard.

London, Jan. 1.-THE Globe says it thinks
the pacific complexion of the Venezuelan
situation is due to Emperor William, add
ing: 1.-THE moment the German sword
ratified Brother Jonathan ceased to finger
his revolver. Secretary Olney's appeal re-
garding the Transvaal, coming from the
author of the enlargement of the Monroe
doctrine, is an olive branch. Nor has the
reciprocity in friendship been lacking on
our side"
An editorial in the Times repeats that the
only point in the Venezuelan controversy
upon which England can concede nothing
is the retention of the bona fide settled dis
tricts under British sovereignty.
1t is learned that an official communica-
ton was sent to the United States embassy
today indicating a much better state Of
affairs regarding Venezuela.
Sir John Lubbock presided at meeting
IN London today, which passed resolu-
ton in favor of a permanent arbitration
court. The meeting appointed a commit

The Future of Prunes.
Northwest Horticulturist

u.
The prune crop of the Pacific coast has
now reached a stage when large share
Of the quantity of dried prunes as con-
sumed in the United States during past
years, can be supplied California prune
growers are becoming somewhat alarmed
as to what will become of the small French
prune ranging in size below the sos. As
the prune crop is now put on the market
according to grade, the small sized fruit
sells for prices almost below cost of nro
duction. 1t is the better quality Of the
fruit which the market demands and for
which the market may be greatly H.
creased.
But it now becomes our duty to give
more attention and care to the matters
of curing and packing. The sizes produced
in the Pacific Northwest are those in
greatest demand, viz: 30-40s, 4O-5Os. and
a few 50-6Gs, but results of last years on
erations show the need of more uniform
curing. The leading growers are REALIZING
the fact that evaporators, generally
should run at lower degree of heat and
have a stronger circulation of air The
fruit must be dried, not cooked. A driving
heat, ranging perhaps from 120 to 140 &C.

or more over the driers, are the principles

remuneration to the producer.
Besides the prospect of expanding the
dried fruit market, the green prunes NAV
find almost indefinite market as methods
for distribution are improved. On account
of the favorable conditions existing in the
Pacific Northwest for producing prunes Of

Big Steers Not Wantei.


Never before in the history Of the Amer
lean cattle trade has the big steer sold at
such discount as now. The simple fact
is that the great, tallowy bullocks repre-
sent pure waste of good feed. Repeated
tests at the fat stock show have demon
strated that a nicely ripened long yearling
or a fat two-year-old will cut up to in
finitely greater advantage on the block
than the 1,700-pound bullocks One thing
is sure, ripe, tidy, sappy young steers Of
the sort now preferred by the butchers
cannot be produced except by the use Of
good blood. The sooner American cattle
feeders abandon the big three and four
year-old cattle the better for all parties
concerned. Baby beef has come to stay;
and it can only be advantageously pro-
duced by securing well-bred calves to start
with and forcing them rapidly forward.
The older steer grows the more feed re-
quired to produce a pound of gain. Good
thrifty calves of the right type will make
wonderful weighers al an early age if the
"hey-dey of their youth" is not fritted
away around empty feed troughs on bar
rem pastures or in seeking shelter from
winter storms alongside a wire fence.

We grow almost 900 bushels of ,potaA Ines
sweet and Irish, each year. and after thew
are dug we keep them in a potato house
which is made by digging a cellar at some
convenient place in the field and building a
house over it, the latter being used fer
storing hay, etc. Our old potato house had
oeen keeping potatoes splendidly, and last
year we built a new one, which we linad
with brick, and built a new house over If
All known conveniences for rapid HANDLING
were included. The location chosen was
convenient from the roads and from Other
parts of the farm, but was badly drained
Imagine our surprise one cold morning
after a nights hard rain, upon finding four
feet OF water standing in our potato house
and several hundred bushels of POTATOES
ruined. We pumped the water out. re-
moved the potatoes to the old house. then
drained the new one and put in a cement
floor six inches thick.
