was inserted in the Charter Of the
Company by which shares could be
sold for non payment of assessments
made for improvement of the property.
Il was soon found the plant needed a
hundred thousand dollars worth Of
new machinery, the old having proven
worthless, or not up to date. The origi,
nal mine owner had nothing to pay his
assessments with. HIS shares were
sold for non-paymeut of dues, and the
last time he was seen, he was a beggar
on what was once his own premises.
So with such rare facilities for freez

the wreck OF the Noell Mall is due to
other causes as we'll as to hard times.
Incompetency and mismanagement on

plain the NOEL Mill sale.

cause for unsouEd ness.
When loaded let the team stop often
to get their breath. It pays.
Be especially careful in loading the
colEs-a little lack Of Judgment has
ruined many a fine horse.
If you find you have too much load
for the colt, throw part of it eff before
he is discouraged. Let his muscles be
come used to work by slow degrees.
If you have a man in your employ
that is timid and nervous, keep him
away from the colts. 1t requires q
level headed, cool, courageous man to
handle colts successfully.
Inspire their confidence by kindness
and f1rmness every time you go near
them, and the education will be easily
and successfully accomplished.
Drive only short distances first, not
far enough to tire them in the least.
Increase the distance a little every
day, and you will insure a prompt, free
driver.
Don't attempt to train the colt at all
until he is in good condition and full of
life, if you want him to develop style

Don't neglect to give every horse on

Every now and then give them some

In q recent issue of a paper / cav an

their value as a hog crop. 1 am quite
an extensive hog raiser and raise artI
chokes for my hogs. 1 am of the opln'
ion that the improved artichOke is n
of the most healthy crops we can raise
for hogs. I believe that If an ex r8

planted to artichokes and fenced to It.
self. s. that the hogs can be turned in
after the tubers r ripe in the fell,
that hog cholera will never visit that
farm Artichokes can be planted In
the fall or spring, cultivated the fret
season and then sufficient tubers will
be left IN the ground for the nextyear's

shoe factory question, and again at our
next meeting the matter was brought
up and freely discussed.
Our people r in full sympathy with
the Alliance manufacturing enterprise
and would be more than glad to con
tribute more money, for VIZ believe it
is the salvation of the Alliance, but
owing to our short crops and low
prices of farm products Of previous
year, IL Is impossible for us to contrib
ute anything more now. Viewing the
situation from a financial standpoint
with trading through the Agency, the
present year, we have come 20 the fol
lowing conclusions and resolutions:
ReSOtUed, That we, the members of
Justice Alliance, are in favor of taking
enough of the Business Agency fund to
start up the shoe factory, and operate

This ruin Of the great brings terrible
calemigtes and suffering upon those
beneath them. When a bank or bust
ness house falls, it is a public calamity
and genuine cause for general sym
pathy.
But it is a good time to consider bet
ter plans. Government institutions are
sound. No runs are made on the gov
eminent treasures o. postt hces in
times Of fright. When times are close,
the government Is not compelled to
make them closer by Withdrawing
funds from circulation or Fastening the
pas ment of claims.
The banks are a good thing for bust
ness under ordinary circumstances, be
cause the people have nothing better.
But they are founded on a false system
Of mathematics so far as safety is con

Of credits instead of cash. When they
are the most in debt and when they are
less able C pay their debts on demand,
they make the most profit. When they

the panic of 1898 their profits have
been cut in two.

THE SAN JOSE A

The Purdue University Agricultural
Experiment Station sends out the fol
lowing bulletin, January IA, 1897:
There are many species of scale in
sects which intest fruit and ornamental
plants to a greater or less extent; but
OF all those known 10 the chronological
et the present time, the San Jose scale
Is tbs most to be dreaded on account of
It's destructive character, the rapidity
with which it increases and the diff
Guilty with which it may be eradicated
when once it has become established.
Il has been only a few years since
this pest was introduced into some of
the nurseries Of the Eastern States
from California, through the careless
ness of q or two nurserymen in not
thoroughly d~isinfecting the stock sent
out, From these nurseries it has been
widely scattered, ard recensinvestiga
tions have shown that it is already
present in a number of orchards in
Ohio and Illinois, brought there by
shipments Of trees from these infested
nurseries; ard we have no reason to
suppose that these shipments Of trees
have been any less frequent in Indiana
than In these a. adjacent States, In fact
it has already been found in some Of
the Southern Indiana counties, and uu-
less vigorous measures are adopted
very soon the loss to the fruit growers
of this State from this cause must neces-
sarily be very great.
Judging from the many specimens of
sc8le-infested branches received by the
experiment station during the past sea-
son, it is very evident that but little is
known concerning this scale by the
fruit growers of Indiana in general.
The San Jose scale is much smaller
and Of a different shape, the female be-
ing nearly circular in outline, than the
oyster shell or bark louse, while the
others mentioned are readily distin-
guished by the naked eye.
AS already stated this pest becomes
dis tributed by means Of nursery stock
which is sent from one State or locality
TO another. It is also spread locally by
being carried by the wind and on the
feet Of birds, ETC., so that if q single
tree is infested at the time of planting,
so great is it's reproductive power it
may soon spread until the entire orch
ard is infested. It hes been ascertained
that the progeny of a single female,
during a single season, may amount to
more than 5000 600, 600 of individuals.
Thus it will be eeen that the greatest
care should be exercised in this matter,
not only by the nurserymen, but by
each Individual planter.
As a further preceurion and as a
matter Of selt-protectioo Indiana
should follow the example VI OHIO and
illinois in passing a law making the
sale or Offering for sale, or harboring
trees or plants infested with this or
other noXious insects, a misdemeanor
punishable by a suitable fine. 1t should
then be placed in the hanMs of q suit
able entomologiss who will see that the
law is enforced.
