knowledge. The profit of this mining
company is 63 cents on every 90 %
grains Of it's product-a profit as large
as a many silver mine owners would
make if silver were coined into dollars
at the expense of the United States
government. Now one of the things
decided by the last election was that it
was wicked for a silver mine owner to
make a profitthe inference being that
he could only save himself from a
charge of dishonesty by mining ore so
refractory that 9714 grains of 1.-THE
number in a dollar-would cost just a
gold dollar.
But now comes the Baltimore Sun
and betrays the fact that some gold
dollars cost only 81 cent, and hence of
the remaining SO cents part is fiat, the
creation Of law. Why it should be a
moral thing to give an extra value to
gold by fixing the price Of % % grains
by law at a dollar, while the mere
proposition to do the same by silver is
immoral is one of those problems that
no gold man has yet worked out for

There should never be any late cult
vatlon of bearing orchards. If weeds
start up they should be mown down
often enough and late enough to pre-
vent seed forming. But the weed itself
after midsummer will probably be
O benefit than injury to the orch
ard. Cultivation at this time to de.
stroy weeds only promotes more vlgor
GUS growth Of new wood and foliage,
and usually at the expense of fruit
buds for the following year. What Is
still worse, this late cultivation pre-
vents the ripening of wood, thus max
ing very liable to winter kill. Most
kinds of trees are only hardy when
their wood is well ripened. The sum-
mer has especially in it's latter part
been unusually warm and wet. Unless
drought comes to check growth and
ripen the wood there are likely to be
many winter killed trees next year.

FRUIT GROWING AND HoRTICUL'
TURR IN THE SOUTH.

Eds. Southern Fruit GTOWer:-To
the many readers of the Fruit Grower
I address myself to you for the first
time, hoping that our most excellent
editor will add a line of introduction,
and that we all will become mutually
interested in the work Of fruit growing
and horticulture in the South.
The name of our paper is indication
of the possibilities of fruit growing in
the South. Twelve years Of hard toll,
study and experience as a nurserymaD,
fruit grower, and horticulturist in the
great State of Tennessee, has discov-
cred to me many of the possibilities Of
these three important factors Of hus
bandry in the South.
The one most remarkable feature
among our Southern people is that
they have given so little attention to
these things, while thenatural~ resources
of the South give out so many assur
ances of success to those who will in
vest their time and money on these
lines of husbandry in our Southland.
But turning more definitely to the
subject, we ask, what r the possibili-
ties Of fruit growing in the 6outh7
To the man of intelligence and energy
and who is not afraid of toll, there is no
limit to the possibilities OF success.
The three great obstacles in growing
fruit in the South, as well as in most
all other countries, are frost, rain, and
droubh. OF course we cannot cannot
control the winds and clouds, yet we
a protect ourselves in some degree
against these obstacles.
Nothing, perhaps, will advance us to
the highest possibilities of protection
in the three hindrances mere than we'll
written articles on the subjsct, given
to US through our best edited papers.
There r many other obstacles that
come up wish the fruit grower, most of
whtchhe can meet up withsucc8ssfuliy.
Some OF these we will try to help you
through with.
For fear u good editor cannot pub
lish long articles, we close. Oar next
will be al article on how to grow fruit
trees. J. A. FOREMAN.

THE ONIONS
Sylvia, Tenn,

Onions r really s~weeteners of the
breath after the local effects have
passed away, says one learned doctor.
They correct stomach disorders, and
carry eff the accumulated poisons of
the system. They provide a blood
purifier that all may freely use. As a
vermifuge the onion cannot be sur.
passed, and eaten raw will often check
a violent cold in the head. One small
onion eaten every night before retiring
is this we'll known Doctors prescription
for numerous affections of the head.
and is highly recommended for sleep
lessnees. It acts on the nerves In q
soothing way, without the injurious
effects of the drugs often applied. The
heart of the onion heated and placed
in the a will often relieve the agony
OF earache; while the syrup produced
from sprinkling a sliced onion with
sugar and baked in the oven is said to
work wonders for the group

Adopted at Washington, D. Co. February

WHEREAS, The Declaration of Indes

ttThat all men are created equal;
that they are endowed with certain ~
alienable rights; that among these are
life. liberty and the pursuit OF IhRppl-
ness: that to secure these rights, gov
ernments are instituted among men,
deriving their just powers ron the
governed"
We hold, therefore, that to restore
and preserve these rights under q
Republican form of government, pr1-
vate monopolies of public necessities
for speculative purposes, whether OF
the means of production, distribution
o exchange, should be prohibited, and
whenever any such public necessity or
utility becomes a monopoly IN private
hands, the people of the municipality,
state or union, as the case may be,
shall appropriate the same by right or
eminent domain, paying a just value
therefor, and operate them for, and IN
the interest Of, the whole people.
