Growing the CamphOr Tree In the
South


The national department of agriculture
has issued the following Instructions rela-
tive to the subject:
Camphor trees may be grown either
from seed or from cuttings. They are us
ually grown from seed, as the trees fruit
abundantly, and seedlings can be grown
more easily than cuttings. The seeds are
collected at maturity in October and No
vember and after drying are packed in
sharp white sand or some similar material
to keep them fresh until the time of plant
ing In spring. About the last of March
they are sown in drills In the seed bed.
The soil of the seed bed should be kept
moist, but not too wet, and should be
shaded from the direct rays of the sun
If the weather is warm. The best soil
temperature for terminating camphor seed
is from 70 TO IS degrees f. The tempera-
ture of the atmosphere may be ten degrees
higher, The seedlings will grow well at
higher temperatures, but are likely to lack
vigor and hardness.
The seedlings may be grown in pots,
which will facilitate transplanting at any
time, or they may be transplanted in nur-
sery rows early in. April when one year
old. Plants two years old are generally
regarded as best for final planting AT
this age they vary from twenty to forty
inches in hight.
Planting and Cultivation-When set out
for ornamental purposes the camphor tree
may be expected to grow, in favorable sit
uations, about as rapidly as a LIE Conte
pear, and to require about as much room
In Japan, where the law requires that a
new tree shall be set out for every one
out, they are not generally set ia straight
orchard rows, but cultivation there is per-
formed almost exclusively by hand labor.
There are no records showing results of
regular orchard planting, hence the dis

PLEA FOR NATIONAL QUARANTINE
A Tennessee Man Believes Yellow
Fever Can BE Kept Out of the
Country.


Country.
Nashville, Tenn, Oct O. 1s97.-Mr. John
Claflin, New York Dear Sir-In view OF
the yellow fever plague now prevailing In
some sections of our country, paralyzing
its business interests, and entailIng loss
of millions to the countryside present
seems a fitting time to call a halt and to
formulate plans that will In future pre-
vent this dreaded imported exotic disease
landing on the shores Of this republic.
That a single case of yellow fever should
exist to-day in the United States is an
outrage-a reflection on the intelligence of
Americans and a disgrace to their govern
ment.
Aside from feelings of sentiment and hu-
manity, terror-stricken communities, de-
populated towns and desolated hearth
stones, solely as a matter of dollars and
cents, this yellow fever crime should be
throttled, for II has cost the United States
more money for the past 100 years that has
al, her wars. There Is but one remedy to
successfully cope with this imported
plague, that Is, keep 1t out. To do this.
strong national quarantine system is abb
solutely essential State organizations
no matter how well conducted, frequently
are hampered by discordant elements at
home and fail at critical periods to re-
ceive cooperation OF similar organiza-
lions in adjoining states They are pow
erless to prevent the destruction of public
property by acts Of wild panic-stricken
mobs, as was shown recently at infected
points Hence the necessity for strong
er national quarantine system than now
exists.
In this interest permit me to urge the
Importance Of the New York Chamber OF
Commerce giving consideration to the
present grave conditions prevailing with
the utter want of method In the present
national quarantine system, which lacks
the ability to keep out yellow fever It
is time that proper system be formed
and that practical business men get to-
gether TO formulate plans for an iron
clad quarantine system-one that will stop

A Claimants Long Walk.

Youth Companion. An English clergy
man hired London cabman TO take him
from club TO a private house, where ne
made. the cabman began TO whip the
horse furioqsay. ,1iae, clergyman recoiled
from such brutality but said nothing at
first. When the ofense was repeated in
the next block, and again not long after
ward he could endure il no longer.
Opening with his umbrella the shutter
ut the top of the cab, he called to the cab
man that he would NOT pay him for the
drive II the horse was whipped in that
senSeless way.
Il cannot allow a horse he added TO
be dashed so brutally before my eyes.
Drive more slowly, if necessary, but don't
use tie whip again"
The driver expressed his regret that the
clergyman should have been annoyed, ex-
planned that the horse really needed urg-
ing, and promised not to use the whip
again.
The horse ar once slacllened mis- pace
when the whip was put aside. The cab
had been bowling along at merry pace,
but it now crawled laboriously, the horse
having ceased to trot and betaken himself
to the ordinary walking pace employed
when there was no passenger inside.
The Clergyman having a long distance
to go and not much TING to spare, began
to suspect that his sylnp1thies had been
unnecessarily aroused IN behalf of
horse which apparently did need urg-
ing"
he looked at his watch and attempted
to calculate haw long it would take for
a horse to walk from the Marble Arch to

KEEP UP PARTY LINES.

The Provo non partisans adopted the
right method for launching their party,
but the Democrats there, as in every
other city in the state, should have
nothing to do with it; and they will
not The Democratic committee in
Provo has tnaugurated a municipal
campaign the same as they would a
county or state campaign. And that
is the way it should be- If Democratic
principles are good in county, state and
national government, why are they not
good in municipal government? If
they are to be surrendered in a mu-
nicipal campaign, why not in all other
campaigns?
If the people of the various cities
and towns cannot secure good govesn-
ment through their political parties
they need not expect to secure it by
forming hotch-potch parties. In this
non-partisan movement there is much
for the Republicans to gain, but there
isn't q single thing for the Democrats
to gain. The Democrats of Provo. Lo-
gan, Ogden and all the cities and towns
of the state are doing grand work in
refusing to affiliate with the non-par-
tisan movement, for no matter under
what Dretense it is advocated nor how
sincere some may be in it. it is in eff
feet an attempt to turn the flank of

See that your notes strain not too low,
For still methinks, see her frowu;

Go, tune your voices harmony,
And sing ! am her lOver:

And when You hear her kindly reply,
Return with pleasant .5arblings.

TALES OF TIE DAY.
The Deacon,s PRAYER For Rain.

nC AShSOhS VI
Their fields were parched. Unless rain
came soon the crops would be ruined.
They were not rainnlakers in those days,
says the Chicago News, and still depend
ed upon heaven. In this extremity a
prayer meeting was appointed and the
little congregation gathered to pray for
rain.
The restless teams were hitehed in the
sheds about the little caurcn. and every
now and then long-drawn screech from
a cramped vehicle came into the quiet of
the meeting. The oil lamps smoked and
added their odor to the Sizzling air.
They prayed for rain. The tall, spare
form of Deacon Rogers rose. He pushed
his steel-bowed glasses up onto his fore
head, clasped his hands behind his back
and raised his white head appealmgly to
heaven.
He trusted Providence implicitly and
yet it. was vital that this should be the
right kind of storm. No slight shower
could relieve the condition of things. 1t
must be a sort of small and Lingering
deluge, SO:

WANT MORE SUGAR FACTORIES.

It is said that Cudahy, the million
aire pork packer of Chicago, has in con-
temptation the erection Of sugar fac
tory near Florence, Los Angeles county,
California. Why is it that capitalists
who are seeking investments in indus
trial enterprises for their surplus money
cannot be induced tocome to this state?
At present it looks as though much
capital would be invested in sugar fac
tories in this country in the next few
years. One of the few sugar factories
in the United States is located in this
state and it has been eninently sue
ceSsful. 1t has the distinction of being
the only factory in the country that
raises beet seed, While the department
of agriculture offers to take all the
seed produced. What is the reason
built? There are plenty Of locations
equally as good as that at Lehi, and
plenty of land in all parts of the state
as well adapted TO the raising Of sugar
beetS as the lands in Utah county. 1t
is true there is some talk of building a
sugar factory at Springville and one
at Gunnison, and it is to be hoped these
projects will not fall through, but there
is room in the state for dozen fac
tories, and plenty of labor TO work the
beet fields. The states mining indus
try has received a serious blow through
the fall in the price of silver. and there
is no other industry after mining that
would bring the same amount of money
into the state as sugar factories. There
is always a ready market for the pro-
duct and no waiting a dozen sugar
factories in the state would be almost
like a dozen mints. Every effort should
be made to induce capital to come to
the state and erect them.
