SOFIA deep, mellow and well
drained soil is necessary. Good
groves can be made on quite sandy
land if attention is paid to fertiliza
ton and the growing of nitrogen
gathering crops. Soils poor in lime
produce fruits with little aroma and
thick parings, therefore, on such
soils lime should be used. Spread
mineral fertilizers broadcast at the
beginning of the rainy season and
cover lightly. For young and well fer
tilted plantations, beans, corn, etc,
may be planted between rows.
FERTILIZATION.- not apply
fresh manure. Good compost is pre-
ferred. If the growth of wood is poor
and the leaves yellow, Chill saltpetre
may be spread after the rainy season.

WARNER WINS HIS FIGHT
Senate Confirms Him Without TAX
ing a Vote.
Senator Wellington's Illness Pre-
vented Him From Being + resent
to Voice His Opposition.

The great storm over the nomination of
D. H. Warner, jr., to be consul to Leipsic,
Germany dwindled to a gentle breeze yes
terday and then died out altogether.
Mr.. Warner was confirmed without op-
position, without the Iormality of a vote,
and just as hundreds of others have been
confirmed. IN the ordinary course of .r,ti-
tine executive business. During the day
Mr.. Gailinger received a telegram from
Mr., Wellington stating that his physician
forbade his return to Washington, and ask
ing that he be paired on the tariff bill
Not word was said about the case of
young Warner. Accordingly, when it was
reached on the calendar the Senate Thought
there was no need for further DELAY. and
when the motion was made that he be
confirmed such action was taken. Thus
ended what for time gave promise of
being a stirring episode.
Other nominations confirmed were:
Charles II Isham, OF Maryland, commits
sioner for the district OF Alaska; George
Christ, surveyor general OF Arizona; A p.

HAVE A JUST GRIEVANCE
Employees of the G. P. O. Want a
Half Holiday.
Work Longer and Harder for Less
Money Than Clerks in the
Other Departments.

The employees OF the Government Print
ing office are making strenuous efforts To
secure the same privileges accorded the
men Ia the other branches OF the Govern
mental service. At recent meeting OF
the Cabinet il was decided to give the
clerks in the various departments a half
holiday on Saturday, during the heated
term, but the Government Printing Office
was not included In the favored bureaus
The Printing Office men have cone to-
gether and taken measures to bring their
grievances to the atten nuOn of the authOTi-
ties.
They state that they have to work eight
hours day TO the six and half OF the
department. clerks, and that the Work in
tie Printing Office is incomparGbIy harder
than the clerical duties. III addition 10
this no sick leave is allowed the Printing
Office men, such as is given the other
department clerks. The present cause vi
complaint is aggravated by the substitu-
ton three years ago OF the time for the
piece system, " hich resulted in a reduction
in the wages of some employees Of from
two to three dollars a day.
The state OF affairs was Thoroughly dis
cussed at a recent meeting and q plan
of procedure mapped out by which the
desired half holiday on Saturday suuld

THE HOUSE PROCEEDINGS.
After Sitting for Few Minutes
Adjournment Is Taken.


In the House yesterday the Committee
on Ways and Means made unanimous
report on joint resolution requesting the
President to make certain nvestigations
relative to the restrictions and sale of
American tobacco with the governments
OF those countries for the sale therein OF
American tobacco, and to secure open and
unrestnc cted markets.
Mr. Evans OF Kentucky In charge of the
resolution, yielded to Mr. Clardy his Dem
ocratIc colleague. who prefaced his ex-
| PLANTATION of the measure by saying he did
not propose 30 intrude "a long speech on the
| weary and oYerworked House" The bene-
ficiaries Of this resolution would be, lie
said, the tobacco growers Of Kentucky,
| Tennessee ana Virginia chiefly.
| There was an annual surplus OF 800, COO,
| 000 pounds Of tobacco which had TO find
it's mar ket in foreign countries For many
! years restrictions had been imposed upon
the sale OF tobacco in every country but
England and Germany. The object of the
ueasure WAS simply TO secure the removal
of these restrictions so the American
tobacco grower could sell his product
! through the regular channels of trade
| Mr. swanson OF Virginia, representing
a large tohacco-growing constituency,
! also advocated the measure
! At the conclusion OF Mr. Swanson's s
speech .he resolution was unanimously
| adopted
| \ wrangle then ensued on a motion TO
! print 500 copies Of the digest and manual
OF the House, as a result of which Mr.
| Dingley moved to adjourn. 1t was car
ricd, on division, by 127 to 81, but Mr.
Bailey demanded the yeas and nays
Pending the announ cement OF the vote
| MI Simpson, who had sought to raise a
! point Of order on the motion to print the
rules. asked permission to extend his re-
marks in tile Record This was objected

naturally, objection was made 10 an ex-

few and were no justification for the
action OF the con ferees.
MIR. Morgan noted the fact that althoug n
the Senate gave the Sugar Trust and
other corporations all the protection they
needed, 1t desired to put small tax on
their bonds If the people saw that
neither the Democratic party nor the
Republicans could save them, there was
no wonder that they might turn to the
Populisrs. Mr. Morgan charged that
'the Sugar Trust held the Senate in the
leash aud made the Republican party right
about face on this matter of taxing
stocks' Yet the tax had been put on
by the Senate with not dissenting vote.
There was no doubt that someone In the
interest Of the Sugar Trust went before
that conference committee and declared
that it should not tax the trusts bonds.
The committee had to yield or be eN-
posed.
Mr.. White remarked that before the
stamp tax Went into conference none of
the Republican able lawyers on the floor
believed or said such a measure was
Invalid or Illegal
Mr. Morgan said that the action of the con
ference If indorsed was the destruction OF
the rights OF the people of the United states
It was declaration that there was no
right to tax corporations II e prophesied
that sufficient numbers OF Republicans
tif this bill were passed. would join the
Populists to wreck the Republican party
at the coming elections
Mr. White moved to adjourn before the
reading of the report had been finished. but
withdrew his motion SO that the last lines
Were read. Mr. Pettus then moved for an
executive session, which was entered into
at $50 p. M, and soon thereafter the
Senate adjourned until today at noon

RETURN TO THE OLD SCHEDULE.
Western Association Makes Al
Order

Chicago. Dec. 2.-The western lines
met again today for the purpose of con-
sidering the passenger situation on
through rates to the Pacific coast. It
was decided that all lines should return
at once TO the old schedule of commits
SlonS. and that all rates in all parts of
the territory of the through lines should
be restored as early as practicable, and
that they shall be maintained strictly
hereafter. 1t is proposed by some of
the lines to reorganize the trans-conti-
mental passenger association. and call
for meeting to be held with that OBJ
5ect was issued today, signed by the
Atchison, the Burlington and the Rock
Island roads. The meeting is to be
held Dec. II, in St. Louis. Some OF the
roads are of the opinion that any ef-
fort to reorganiZe the association is
premature just at this time, when it
will be impossible for the Union Pacific
to enter into any agreement On the
other hand it is contended that the
other lines can go ahead with the reor-
ganization, and by the time the agree
ment is finished the Union Pacific will
be able to become a member.
Managers of the Joint Traffic associa-
ton have modified the rules governing
the use of the central passenger COM
mittee mileage tickets. Hereafter
names may be written on the stub at
the convenience of the owner of the
ticket, instead of the signature being
affixed in the presence of the agent

and scalp diseases, from a common
blotch, or eruption, to the worst scrof-

forms of skin diseases, such as salt
