The grain crop last year was almost a

contribute are so small, and the mum.

only those living along the waterways

General Garys daughter the other day,
in Baltimore, Mr.. Wilson sat beside
Baltimore man who exports grain. he
told the secretary he had rate OF 8
cents a bushel on corn from Baltimore

considerable quantities were exported
to that mardet.
What do the Danes do with the
corn - asked Secretary Wilson.
Feed it to their cows, and then send
their butter to London and Liverpool,
where they have big trade was the
answer.
This set Mr.. Wilson thinking.
An Abnormal Cond tion.
ut is not right that Western corn
should be shipped to Denmark and
then come back to England as butter,
and there crowd our own butter out OF
the Market" said he tohimself. So the
secretary of agriculture began an in.
vestigation of our export butter trade.
He found that until recently all our
exports were of cheap stuff, oleos and
butterine. OF late some good butter
| has been going abroad, but our people
did not know how to cater to the Eng
llsh taste.
1--WE are making the best butter il
the world, and more than our OWL
people can use,' said Mr.. Wilson t(
himself" land there must be some
way to meet those Danes in London.
A couple of days after his return t
Washington, Mr.. Wilson was at tn,
office of the comptroller of the treasury
Have the legal right to buy a 10
of butter with the funds of the agricul
tural department, and send it to Eng

troller.
That gentleman looked up the Law
and said the secretary of agricultur
had that right.

As soon as he returned to his office
the secretary called up some Of hi

clearer.
Official feeling in St Petersburg is
strongly against Greece. A dispatch
from that city says that the Turkish
attitude is regarded there as correct
and irreproachable, while on the other
hand, the Greek raid is condemned by
the Russians as being fresh violation
of international law, as completely
alternating European sympathy and as
exposing Greece to the dangerous con .
sequences of disregarding the warning
note of the powers. This note is still
unanswered.
Awaiting the Outcome.
! While Greece is relying on the warn.
ing she gave that raiding bands were
likely to cross the frontier, she dis
claims responsibility for their actions,
and is probably waiting to see whether
a chance victory for the insurgents
will provoke the Macedonians into a
rising against the Turks. In the mean.
time Turkey is neglecting nothing
which will give her an advantage in
the coming struggle. The sultan ha:
just issued an trade accepting the
Turkish -Roumanian treaty of com
merce, which the Turkish government
had hitherto rejected as being disad
! vantageOus. Its acceptance was III
fuenced by political motives.

The Perfection to Which Fruits and Flow
ers Are Developing.
The limit of Improvement is not
found in producing fruits of great size,
beauty and sweetness There are other
desirable qualities that the horticulture
list is anxious TO obtain, and toward
this end he is devoting his energies.
One of the most noticeable trends of the
science of fruit culture is toward the
elimination Of undesirable organs The
thorns Of some Of the citrus fruit trees
and the prickles of sach small berry
bushes as the gooseberry, blackberry
and raspberry are protuberances that
have outlived their usefulness and are
highly unpleasant They not only pune
ture the ripening fruits, but they often
make harvesting exceedingly inconven-
lent. Gardeners have long wished to
do away with these thorns and prickles,
but it is only comparatively recently
that systematic efforts have been made
to eliminate them.
The thorns are conspicuous organs of
our cultivated plants that have ceased
to be of any value, for their original
purpose Of protecting the plants from
animals has no force today in the gar.
dens and fields. They should have been
exterminated long ago Through the
careful selection of plants that happen
to be thornless, stocks are obtained for
new race of thornless plants Others
are noted for the few thorns that grow
on them, and 10y judicious selection of
seeds and gratis from these the same
work Is continued Already gardeners
have cultivated raspberry and blackber.
ry canes that are entirely thornless, and
by grating improved varieties ON these
