usually the man WHO gives out
such IN expression does not know
what he is talking about and is
merely a guesser. For instance,
cabbage and caulifower are rapid
growing, leafy succulent plants
that require much water. Their
heads are important commodities
in every good vegetable market
and generally sell at prices that
render their production profitable.
At the Wisconsin experiment
station 17.2 inches Of water was
applied in four irrigatious. From
the time the plants we're set until
the harvest, October 81, but ST
inches Of rain fell, while normal
rainfall during the same period
would have been nearly Is inches.
Beginning September II, they
were cut with the following re-
suits: Twenty rows of cabbage
watered, containing 44G plants,
had 1876 salable plants, which
weighed $50 pounds to 100 heads.
Twenty rows of cabbage not water
ed had 442 plants of which 347
we're salable and weighed $50
pound, to 100 heads. OF caulifow-
err, twenty rows watered contained
435 plants. of which S47 were
salable and weighed 400 pounds
to 100 heads; twenty rows of 36l
plants, not wanted, contained 235
salable heads weighing 306 pounds
to 100 heads. Watering increased
the number of marketable heads
twelve percent aid the average
weight of heads was increased
about fifty percent. Watering in
creased the caulifower heads four
teen percent and in average weight
about sixty-six percent. Sixteen
rows of strawberry plants were ir-
rigated the seasons of 1894 and
1895 and yielded SCI boxes of
berries. Sixteen rows we'll irrigat-
ed during 1894 but not 1895 yield
ed l12 boxes and sixteen rows not
irrigated either season yielded &C
boxes. Field and Farm.

The Goldhug Press is just now
using the raise in the price of
wheat as one of the signs that
prosperity has struck us. The
National Bimetallist drives this
wedge into their argument:
Let no farmer be deceived by
goldbug claptrap concerning the
rise of wheat. Any man who can
read must know that it comes from
q veritable bread famine in other
countries. Prosperity which is
haunted by the ghosts Of starved
millions in other lands is not the
kind of prosperity that the Amer
lean people desire. Moreover, such
prosperity is bound to be temp
orary, for even a gold champion,
great though he be in promising,
can scarcely give us the assurance
that there will always be general
crop failures in India and Argen-
tine and short crops in Europe.
But even now, with famine abroad
and plenty of tariff at home, We
have nothing like genuine prosper
ity-merely a temporary rise of
wheat ard furry of speculation

STRIKE AT VALDOsTA.
Negro LnbOrers Demand 81 Day for
Ten Hours Work

Ten Hours Work.
Valdosta, Ga. June 4.-Forty negro field
hands, who were employed In cutting down
trees and levelling off the ground for tho
new race track. struck for higher wages
to-day and refused to move an inch until
their hours of work were reduced to ten
hours a day, and their pay raised to 81
a day The negroes began working for
Is cents a day, and worked from sun-up
to shutdown with an allowance of one
hour for dinner. They were apparently
very well satisfied to work for that or at
least, they made no complaint for more
money or fewer hours. Early this morn
ing one of the negroes kept asking the
foreman about the time and finally told
the foreman. Mr.. McKenna, to let him
know when o'clock came. At that hour
Mr.. McKenna called the negro and TOLD
him that 1t was 8 o'clock. The darkey
pulled off his hat, and giving is a toss an
the air, gave three loud yels The other
negroes i'm the field dropped their tools al
once and walked out.
McKenna was almost dumbfounded
when he discovered he had a strike on
his hands. and began to talk TO the ne
groes to find out what would be satisfac.
tory to them. The negroes told him they
would not work for less than 81 a day and
ten hours to count as a days work. Nc
kenna told them he would allow them 81
a day. All of the negroes but three walk
ed out. The three remained at worn.
The managers of the work at the race
track gave the negroes some time to re-
turn to work and then they began en-
ploying other hands. They already have
as many as struck, and the work will go
on without further interruption.
The strike was well organized and was
done in regulation style. 1t was such
novel thing for negro field hands to do
that erybody was amazed by it.
The policemen have been keeping a very
vigilant watch for the perpetrators of the
many robberies about town and some of
these same negroes may get in a scrape al
any time IL they do not get to doing some
thing.
mad dog was killed here this morn
ing by the policemen. The dog was fine
pointer and had been sick for two or three
days. It's owner turned it over to a vet
Urinary surgeon for treatment and this
morning the doctor stated that it had hy-
drophobia. A policeman was sent for
