throw It's whole life and energy into
the formation Of seeds. which Is so
detrimental to plant life that Il soon
becomes unable to impart yigor to the
seeds, hence the failure In fruitage. II
the seeds are not vigorous the pulp. or
what we call fruit, will not develop.
Take an apple with a shrunken side
and cut into It and you win ind no
seeds on that side. A hard spot on a
strawberry, or monkey face, or button,
Is always caused by lack Of seed
growth. II q strawberry plant bears q
big crop Of extra large berries It would
bear good crop the coming year; but
II 1t bore the same number OF bushels
Of very small berries, 1t would be ex-
hausted, so that the second crop would
be very small one and very inferior,
because there are as many seeds In the
small berry as In q large one. In a
bushel Of small berries there would be
many times as many seeds as in a
bushel Of large ones. The pulp or
fruit part is not exhausting at all. You
can reach the limit Of production in
pulp or fruit and never run out or

the seeds to ripen year after year the
plant becomes unable to grow fruit, or,
as we term 1t, runs out True, they
@ay in the course of years recover in
= measure. but the better plan Is to
prevent than to cure. Visit the plan
tations of the neighborhood. Notice the
blanks, and those bearing a few have
partially recovered. Where the fruit
age is heavy the recovery has been
more complete. It costs as much to
cultivate the blanks and half fruiters
as 1t does those fruiting heavily.
The great secret, then. is to maintain
strong and vigorous plants that may
throw their whole life into producing
fruit instead of foliage. What is said
Of Strawberries holds good of all fruit
bearing plants. Pedigree plants may
be said to be plants that have been
bred up by careful selection and high
cultivation until 1t produces fruit true
to type and in the grandest perfection,
and transmits this ability to its on
spring or breeds. When it cannot
perform this Office it is said to have lost
its pedigree.

Me1Ioo ns 2 noe Market.


During the past few months Texans
in various portions Of the state, have
made shipments of hogs to Mexico
with very satisfactory results, says Cot
ton Ginners' Journal Shippers here
In Waco, where the Journal is pub
lished, say their experiments have paid
net profits. A recent shipment of 700
hogs 10 the City Of Mexico brought
$4,000 in round numbers. Harry L.
Anthony, of the Kansas City stock
yards, who has also shipped several
carloads of swine to the sister repub-
lie, says that the unusual demand there
for American hogs is caused by the
demand for lard. In a recent interview
he says: There are few hogs raised
in Mexico, and of course the demand is
far greater than the supply, making a
good price of rs cents per pound for
lard. The hogs for meat would be Of
little value, as the Mexicans are not
much ON eating pork. The way they
use an American hog is to butcher him
and render all Of him except his hams
and shoulders into lard. The hams and
shoulders are then sailed and turned
over to the meat market and sold
not cured" What is the reason that
hogs are imported into Mexico, then,
instead Of lard?" "The reason is that
the duty on lard in cans or tierces is
enormous. 1t would make the Eifel
tower look low and dumpy when stood
up beside It, whereas the duty on hogs
is low-$1.O3 in Mexican money, which
is a little over so cents in American
money. BY shipping In the hogs the
duty on lard is knocked out by q great
saving and profit to the slaughtering
houses In Mexico" There has been
a great deal OF money lost in shipping
hogs to Mexico from the fact that all
kinds OF animals are not good for ship
ment. The greatest mistake shippers
have made in the past was to get hogs
too large and fat and unwieldy animals
that could not stand the trip. In Kan
sas City we select In the stock yards
hogs that weigh from $50 to $50
pounds. Those that have good feet and
the best of health only are used for
shipment, and where others have lost
all OF their profits by having a heavy
percentage of their stock die, we come
out whole by having little or no death
loss"

a cuRrous CROWN.
Found Many Years Ago in the wIds Of
California.

California
A short time ago Prof. Van der Nail,
len Of San Francisco received from
Henry Buehler, Of Jacksonville, Ore, .
most strange and interesting curiosity
says an exchange. A letter came with
1t, stating that Mr.. Buehler believed the
object to be some sort of a crown, but
would like some positive information
on the subject. The letter went on to
say that the supposed crown was found
by the writer about thirty-five years
ago on his ranch In Tuoiumne county
in California At the time he had been
living on the ranch about three years
and 1t was wild land when he got it.
There is no record Of any one except
Indians ever living in the vicinity and
there is not the vaguest possibility that
the work was done by them. The place
where the crown was found was most
curious one, and the circumstances
connected with it are strange and in
teresting. Mr.. BuehleF states In his
letter that he was digging out large
sage brush that was in the way Of his
pillow. At the depth of about four feet
from the surface, his shovel struck
what appeared to be boulder about
the size of a mans head. AS the ground
about the roots was soft, he picked up
the lump and was astonished at its
lightness. A close examination showed
a piece Of shining metal sticking out
at one side. Taking his knife, Mr..
Buehler scraped away portion and
could hardly believe his eyes when a
perfectly formed grape leaf, made Of
bright yellow metal, came to view. The
work of removing that object from its
encasement was task that occupied
several days. The substance surround
ing it proved to be composition OF
clay and gypsum, and incessant boil
ing and scraping with bits of soft wood
was necessary to get it off. Great care
was necessary, as the intricate mass
was found to be very delicate. When
Mr.. Buehler at last had the object in
his hand he had not the least idea of
what 1t was, but his few ne4ghbors
agreed that it was crown of some
hLuu, dlJnOu61A AODUuy WOuAO 1bLCAAPb
to explain how it came to be buried
among the roots of a sage brush. Since
then hundreds of people have examined
it, but SO far no satisfactory explana-
tion of it's origin has been given.
Taken altogether, it is a most un>
usual object. 1t is hemispherical in
shape, about five inches in diameter
across the base, and made to appear of
interviewer leaves Of grapevine. The
leaves are most delicately and accurate
ly modelled, all the veins showing plain
ly on both sides. Little punches of
grapes are scattered over the surface.
These are, in fact, the most curious
part of it. They are purple in color
and made of a substance that looks
like Bohemian glass. Each grape is
fastened in the proper place by tiny
wire and all are bound together in a
perfect bunch. An analysis of the
metal forming the leaves shows it to
be composed Of gold, silver and copper,
gold being nearly One-half of the COM
position. There must be nearly 800
worth of the precious metal in it.

A new antiseptic has been discovered
in Germany. In general use it is called
aRtinounin. One part Of the substance
in from 1900 to 1000 parts Of soapsuds

Less Feneing.-A permanent pasture
makes it possible to reduce the amount
of fencing upon the farm. This is an
important item. Many are slow to
abandon the small fields surrounded by
high fences, although they have moth
ing to commend themselves to the man
who figures closely. We cannot control
prices Of what we raise, but we can con-
troll cost Of production to a certain en-.
tent. The taxes on the field, the cost
of the fence surrounding 1t and the
waste OF an area occupied BY the fence
go to reduce the income. The taxes
must be paid, but the heavier expense
due to the fence may be eliminated
from the cost Of the production of the
crops. Useless fences cost the farm
ers tens OF millions OF dollars each
wear. The little square field is not in
line with progress and cheap produo-
tion.-Ex.
