PROSPECTS OF FRUIT CROP.

Apples Indicate Better Yield and
Peaches Reduced One.
The Agricultural Departments August
report of fruit conditions is MS follows:
Apples-The general condition advanced
during July from GAG to 65.7, a crafty
ing indication of sustained crop prospects.
This general average covers all kinds of
apples in all sections of the country. Not
withstanding general condition of GAG
July l, which was low as far us the crop
of the country was concerned, it was
specifically stated that prospects for ex-
cellent crops" continued in States of the,
northern belt from Maine to Minnesota
and in Iowa, with fair but comparatively
smaller crops in Ohio, Illinois and In-
diana. In the present report very gen.
oral betterment is shown in that region,
The condition is very uneven in Ohio,i
Illinois and Indiana, many counties re-;
porting entire failure, while others report
abundant crops. which accounts for the
somewhat lower conditions of those,
States. In the past n final condition of 75'
per cent. or over has been followed by
:ln abundant supply of apples, so that the
excellence of the crops of the present sea-
son, in this particular and extensive re-
gion, is plainly evident. In other parts of
ihe country, with few exceptions, the
condition is low.
Peaches-Present returns show n gen.
orally reduced condition. OF the COM
mercial States the best prospects still
are found in Delaware, Michigan, Ohio
and Maryland, while in New Jersey, Vir-
.inia, Georgia and California percentages
indicate less than half crop. In Della
ware the early crop was nearly ruined by

The National Executive Committee of
the gold Democrats, in session at Chicago,

effect, the platform on which the National
Democratic party goes before the people.

of the case to ssy that in the main it can

declaration issued from Chicago.
The Indianapolis conference evolved
the call for the national convention and
no more. It was agreed there that the
members of the party throughout the ma
tion were entitled to a statement of the
seasons why certain leaders take issue
with the principles enunciated in the Chi
sago convention-a statement fuller and
more explicit than could be embodied In a
call for convention. Whereas the con-
vention call prepared at Indianapolis was

It was designed that the address to Be pre-

Arctic Adventures.
The story of DIR. Nansen's attempt to
reach the North Pole is interesting, like
the accounts of previous explorations of
the same kind, in the sense that the world
always likes to read about personal ad-
ventures in remote and mysterious re-
gions. There is certain charm in records
of courage and endurance even when the
results are not of any material import
ance: and the results of these successive
Arctic journeys can hardly be said to have
justified the expense and privation, the
suffering and fatality that they have in
volved. DIR. Nansen claims to have pro-

anything Of substantial Importance. The
tact that he got nearer to the pole than
any previous explorer counts only in q
comparative way, and not as decisive
triumph. 1t can be said, perhaps, that

of ultimate success in the case, and this

A CURIOUS OCCUPATION.


Men who Live In DARK Caverns In France
and Raise Mushrooms.
The cultivation of mushrooms is really
o matter Of "ancient history in France.
The people are 50 fond of them and
find them SO nutritious as well az profit
able that>very few Frenchmen are SO
poor as to be obliged to do without their
beloved vegetable.
Notwithstanding the antiquity Of the
mushroom 1t is, even in these days of
enlightenment, q mystery. Nobody,
save a few s~avants, knows much about
it, but everybody in France knows that
it can be made to grow in almost any
quantity desired.
The mushroom loves q place that ia
cool, damp and dark. and it is for this
reason that the mushroom Is almost in
variably cultivated in subterranean ex-
cavations throughout France.
In the department of the Seine Their
are over 8, 900 Of these caves, and H.
them live about 800 people-''ch .i!.-
pignonists, who rarely see the ui.y-
light. The descent into these CIV j.

One OF the most interest: g sights
around Paris is the subterrr hear ,x2:s-

Of them extending urder the st,,tts tf

their keeping and perfect preservation.
The temperature varies bit little in
summer, ard only climatic Influences,
that is q very wet or very dry season,
more than one of heat or cold, tends tc
affect the daily production of the beds.
AS nearly as possible a temperature OF
~ degrees F. Is maintained. 1t is
also considered Of great Importance that
the air currents move invariably in the
same direction. This should be from
north to south, and never more than
slightly arpreciable. The mushroom
beds are prepared by sprinkling a guam
tity Of dried and pulverized wild mush-
rooms over a layer of earth heavily en-.
riched; then, in alternate layers, the
mushroom powder and earth are put to.
