Packing Fruit for Market.


The degree Of ripeness should deter
mine the time of gathering the fruit.
Host kinds of pears have better flavor
If picked as soon as their growth is
completed and permitted to ripen off
the tree. All the fruits should be han
died carefully to prevent bruising, and
very particular care should be taken
with the tender fruits. The sorting
should be carefully done, according to
size and color, the wrapping to follow,
but all the fruit should be permitted to
cool before either is undertaken.
Throughout this work, the less han
ding that is given the longer it's condi-
ton will remain good.
The packing should be done in such
a way rs to hold the fruit protected
from jostling and bruising while in
transit to market, but yet it should not
be packed so closely as to prevent the
air from circulating through it freely.
Only such fruits should be packed as
are thoroughly sound, free from blem-
ish, Of good shape and Of reasonably
good size.
Tender and soft fruits especially
should be cooled as soon after being
picked as practicable. The wrappers
should not be close enough in texture
to conine within them the moisture
that comes from the fruit by evapora-
ton, or the fruit will be apt to mildew.
This is often seen on oranges wrapped
in a paper of close texture. The
changes going on in ripe fruit generate
heat, and this should be counteracted
as far as practicable. 1t is said that
even in a well-refrigeratedc car the heat
liberated from the fruit will often
more than counterbalance the cooling
effect of the ice. Hence, it is important
to have rapid transportation to market
before the heat generated by ripening
process causes decay.-Texas Stock
and Farm journal.

Dipped Texas Cattle.

A significant resolution was passed
by the Interstate Sanitary Convention
at Omaha as follows:
Whereas, The experiments recently
conducted have demonstrated that South
ern cattle dipped in dynamo oil saturated
with sulphur will effectually destroy the
Southern tick, and that such may be
mixed with Northern native cattle with
out danger of communicating Texas or
Southern fever thereto.
Resolved, That the quarantine regua-
tons may be amended with safety so as
to permit the passage of dipped Southern
cattle, on the certificate of a designated
inspector of the State or of the United
States Department of Agriculture, to
Northern States during any portion OF the
year

Footgear and Gloves.

Woman is largely judged by her ex-
tremities, by the way she dresses her
feet and hands. and so she should have
care in selecting footgear and gloves,

time are her feet so conspicuous as when

Evening slippers are very smart at pres.

can apply philosophy to evening slippers
as well as to everything else in life.
For everything you miss you gain some.

immediate, for 1t is in dollars and cents.
All OF these gimcracks on slippers make

The proper thing to wear with ball
gowns and other elaborate frocks is a
slipper made from the piece of the gown
worn unless it happens to be striped

made OF the prevailing tint should be
worn. Bronze slippers are much used

Calumet Will Not Be
Represented at the
Above Contest.
rhrsugh q MisunderstandinG.


The Calumet high school win not have
q representative in the oratorieal contest
which occurs at Ishpeming in the near
future. in which representatives oischools
from the VARIOUS towns OF the peninsula
will take part. That the Calumet school
will not be represented is no fault OF the
faculty or the students.
Some little time ago the Ishpeming
school Issued Invitations to the various
schools to send representatives TO that
city for peninsular contest. Theinvita-
ton was accepted by the Calumet school
and practically all the schools OF the
peninsula and preparations were started
at once and we're well under way when q
communication was received stating
that there would be State or district
contest, independent OF the Ishpeming
contest. With this understanding and
that the contest was to take place in
March. the matter was dropped for the
time as 1t was thought there would be
plenty OF opportunity to get ready for it
later.
Then about q week ago il developed
that most OF the schools were going into
the Ishpeming contest and the local
school officers were in a quandrary.
Under the circumstances it was decided
that it was too late to 20 ahead with the
matter and II was dropped for this year
Whether or not the winner of the Ish-
peming contest will be considered eligible
to enter the State contest or whether the
managers OF the State contest will insist
on the district contest being held at Me-
nominee will be settled at the teachers
and superintendents' meeting to be held
at Marquette today and tomorrow
