there are perhaps but few fruits that
are valuable in a greater variety of
ways than this delicious vegetable.
The plant is an interesting study to
the botanist, the Chinese vegetable
man. the lover of sauer kraut, and the
cigar manufactures. from the moment
that the seed sprouts until nature fin
ally puts head on IT."
The cabbage tree attains height
varying from one to eighty feet. The
latter variety bears its fruit in the
top of the cocoanut tree, and the cab
bage can be distinguished from the
grows in lunches lower down.
Among the dwarf varieties of this
vegetable are the Flat Dutch, Cold
Slaw, Drumhead, Henry Clay, Con-
stancia and the Sauer Kraut.
The Flat Dutch is so called on ac-
count of its globular shape, and the
Sauer Kraut although a dwarf variety
is at times to be found decidedly
"higher" than the tall Cocoanut va
riety. The Drumhead has been found
by experience to be better adapted for
boiling with corned beef than for COW
ering drums. There is a difference
of opinion as to the adaptability of the
variety used for cigar filings and for
wrappers. 1t is asserted by some that
everything depends upon the brand

recognized by them in Van Buren,.
Final arrangements were perfected at a
special meeting of the old society called
for the purpose of finally adjusting
things and then vote being taken it
was unanimously decided to disband
the old organization and for all who so
desired to make application for
admission into the Van Buren, Horticult
ural Association, which all with the
exception of a very few have done.
The secretary was instructed to
tender to. the new organization the
furniture as we'll as the hall, rent for
which has been paid for some months
in advance.
President Kagy after calling the
meeting to order stated that as it was a
settled fact that the society would dis
band, he wished for the society to make
some arrangements to compensate their
secretary, MI. Wlnn, VINO nau been
elected for term of six months at a
salary of $500 and who had already

ascertained that there was In the
treasury about $40 against which were
some small outstanding accounts ii was
moved and carried that Mr.. Winn be
instructed to pay these accounts and
keep the remainder as payment for the
services rendered by him.
This being the only business before
the meeting the society passed the
motion to disband and all was done.
This is happy ending of what looked
at one time to be most serious compli.
cation among our growers.

will not be near as large as many ex-
