Breeders Gazette, is that the wide tire
passes over the ground, while the mar
row tire cuts into it. This is true to
even greater extent on soft roads and to
less extend on hard roads. And the mar
row tire not only Increases the draft,
but it destroys the road. The only rea-
sonable objection to wide tires is that
they find every unevenness in a rough
road and magnify the roughness. Most
of our roads are periodically level, so
that with the rolling effect of wide tires
they would soon become smooth enough
for carriage drives. But few rains,
followed by the cutting action of mar
row-tired wheels, reopen the ruts, and
furnish an excuse for continuing the
use of narrow tires. Such shameful
waste and destruction should be stopped
by laws which discriminate against the
wheels that destroy aud in favor of
those which pack the surface of our
roads.

Wide Tired Wagons.

The tendency of narrow tire on a
heavy wagon is to tear up a surface con-
structed of loose material packed to-
gether, while the tendency of wide tire
is to compress the material under it,
and thus serve, in large measure, as a
road maker and not road destroyer
The preference of farmers who have
used them on farm wagons is we'll known.
By careful test it has been found that
a two.horse team will haul $50 pounds
more across ordinary unplowed fields
with three inch tires than they will
haul with one and one half inch tires
and $50 pounds more than with one
inch tires. The reason, remarks the

Pineapple Cultivation.

L luodpp OulUlVdLlUu'
Since the cultivation OF pineapples
has become such an enormous industry
along the lower east coast, new begin
ners are anxious to obtain all of the
information possible as to the best
methods of preparing the land, planting
the slips, cultivating the soil, and other
features that are necessary to know in
order to make a success of the industry.
Mr. McCarty recently published letter
in the East Coast Homeseeker, giving
valuable information. E. r. Bradley
Of Lantana, who in many ways has
region, in letter to J. E. Ingraham,
land commissioner of the Florida East
Coast Railway, replies to Mr.. McCarty's
article, from which the following para
graphs are extracted:
"The very able article in the May
Homeseeker on the all-important pine.
apple question is almost perfect in it's
way, but it's expense account seems to
have been taken from the capital It's
standpoint. Let us see what the poor
nan must expend before he can claim
to have growing in good shape an acre
of pines. McCarty's estimate is, clear
ing, $780, $4,000 slips, at 81, $48; setting
out. at S1.25 per 1000, SIS; fertillzing,
$50; cultivation, $25; total, $l68. Brad
ley's estimate: Clearing, S35; 5000 slips,
at 81 per 1 ZOO, 1872; setting out, at rs
cents per 1,OOO Sc; fertilizing, $50;
cultivation, S15; total, S139.
The difficulty experienced in fertiliz-
ing and cultivating in the second and
third years is my reason for setting only
5000 slips per acre. Plenty of six
pound pines (Red Spanish) have been
raised by allowing lots of room and sup
plying the requisite plant food. Stakes
are cheap. and where plant and fruit
shall topple over, stake it, but very few
of them will show such tendency. 1t
is my opinion that crude cotton-seed
meal is curse to the pineapple indus
try. It breeds red spiders and thrift
lessness, but thoroughly incorporated
proper percentage of potash, nitrates.
ETC., it is most valuable Ingredient.
But we go on in the same old rut; pay
for a ton of so-caled fertilizer and get
what? Perhaps from 200 to 500 pounds
of plant food, the balance in Ieached
ashes, spent bone black. or any other
trash that is handiest to the factory;
therefore the moral is to make fertilizer
at home.
"From the estimate that have fur
nished, the man of small means can, of
course, eliminate the labor items. He
and his family can do all of the work
after the slips are landed in the field,
leaving only $82 cash expenditure per
acre. AS nearly every tract of suitable
pineapple land in Dade county does not
average more than one mile from water
transportation, the industrious and
econ omical planter can reduce the $50
fertilizer bill by more than one-half by
compromising his own fertilizer with
muck as base of body, and then his
field will increase in value yearly, instead
of running down and out about the
fourth or fifth year"

John B. Stetson University.


1t will doubtless be very gratifying to
the many friends of John B. Stetson
University to learn that this exceedingly
valuable factor in the intellectual life of
Florida is steadily increasing her posi-
bilities for usefulness.
During the past year President Forbes
has been travelling throughout the
length and breadth of Europe, engaged
in study of English and continental
methods of education, and will doubt
less bring back with him practical ideas
of great value.
Those who are familiar with the past
history of Stetson know that this means
the application to her work of the best
methods and thought the world affords.
Nothing has been spared heretofore to
prepare the university for it's ali-impor
tant work, and this determination on the
part of the Board CT Trustees to con-
stantly add to the usefulness of the
university is never lost sight of.
The past year has been year of sue
cessful growth. Students have been
registered from nearly one-half the
counties Of Florida, and from nearly a
score of states, together with two foreign
countries.
The university has proven to be the
right thing IN the right place for those
St1dants who find thoncoIvoc ,,no bIa ~
continue their work in the rigorous CHI
mate of the north, and each year shows
very gratifying increase in the number
OF those who come to Stetson for the
purpose of study in more congenial
latitude.
During the present summer all of the
college buildings are being thoroughly
renovated both inside and out, and will
be put in their usual excellent condition.
Stetson has reason to be proud of her
spacious, well kept dormitories and reci-
tation rooms. 1t is certain that their
equal cannot be found in Florida, and
one would have to travel hundreds of
AALOS III nuy O1EGCtIOu UcIOEc any GuIuk
superior could be found.
The young men and women of the
state are to be congratulated upon the
opportunity of acquiring a liberal educa-
ton, amid the most delightful surround
ings, and under the instruction of
Christian men and women who are
graduates of institutions of national
reputation, thus bringing home to their
very doors, at a nominal expense, posi-
bilitles which few years ago were not
to be found.
Letters are coming in each day asking
for terms and general information.
Rooms have been already engaged for
the next session, and most profitable
year is expected.
Catalogues of the university have
been placed in some of the larger towns
of the state for distribution, and all
those who are DESTROYS Of receiving
either catalogue or any information
will be promptly served by addressing

MINNEAPOLIS MARKETS.
Decidedly Flat During the Political
Excitement,

ALI markets were fiat again. The all alb
sorbing topic was the convention at Chicago,
and that market was about as quiet as 1t
could well be.
The surplus of wheat which has been car
ried on track here during the, past few days
is now just about absorbed, and the millers
came into the market with feeling of less
Indifference than was exhibited on any day
previous since last Thursday The improve
ment in the demand was not marked enough
to make any changes in the premiums paid
but 1t took the form of a better call for the
goods and it was found much easier to get
rid of the wheat on hand and the stock on
track offered was all taken early.
Receipts of wheat were 270 cars. Ship

ceipts of wheat were 1853 cars. Flour output

boys had some trouble at first In TAX
Ing In the acts of the three rings at
one time, but they soon overcame this
dlfhculty. When an event was on In
one ring which they wanted to see
they simply got up in q body, and de-
spite the mandates Of the circus at
tendants, piled down to the other end
OF the tent. Then-o Of them would
catch sight of a particularly daring
feat in the ring which they had just
left. and calling TO- his companions,
back the swarm of youngsters would
go again, darting under nets, and over
seats regardless Of all save gaining the
coveted position In their applause the
boys We're particularly generous. Every
performer was accorded an ovation and
when the clown sang his funny song
the lads yelled and Joined In the
chorus. They were q circus In them
selves to the audience who enjoyed
their presence as an additional attrac-
ton. To the peanut vender and leTno-
made man they. were a gold mine. No
one had more than a dime to spend but
he spent it like king.
Here, you, bring me and me pal two
OF dem glasses of dat red juice wild
straws in EN- too, d'y see," said one of
them and handed the waiter a bat
tered dime as though Senator Teller
had been already elected president and
free silver was an accomplished fact"
For three hours the crowd of gamins
had the best time of their lives. They
were interested in every event and kept
up continual running criticism which
would not all of it look well in print.
They went for good time and they
certainly had it after the way Of their
own particular fancies, and when the
performance was finally over, the boys
gave three long and loud cheers for
the G and then dispersed in
groups toward the city.
One youngster who fully appreciated
the afternoons entertainment was
heard to remark in talking to some of
his mates that "if youse fe1lers don't
hustle de G Il O b after dis blow out,
yer're lot of suckers, OATS what yer
are" The boys vocabulary did not
permit the use Of the word migrate or
unappreciative, but the emphasis which
he laid on suckers showed that he
at least was grateful.
