A ClTY'S FUTURE.
The Duluth Evening Herald !

The Duluth Evening Herald Is
earnestly discussing the business
and industrial conditions in that
city, and urges, the citizens of
that city to carefully consider
what means may be adopted to
bring about a change Of condition.
in one of its articles devoted to
the future OF Duluth, the Herald
says:
"The fact is that Duluth has
not for live years been making any
progress. She was dealt u severe
! GLOW by the panic and has just be-
gun to show signs of recovery.
While other cities, hard hit, have
revived and are now again on
their feet and moving forward,
Duluth has stood still-some say
gone backwards. The people have
become discouraged. They have
grown mo-ose, dlssat:s fed. They
no longer work together. They
haye even neglected their
soci.l duties and instead of spirit
Of good will and neighborliness
pervading the community, the city
is torn up by chickering's aud
quarrels, bred Of envy, jealously
and id|enes>. This is shown not
only in business and professional
circles, but in the churches and
among the women. There is no
longel commercial organization,
except in name, that is attempt.
ing to do anything for
the advancement Of the city.
All are apparently working at
CROSS purposes, nothing Is being
accomplished.
II Duluth is to prosper new en-.
tcrprises, producing enterprises,
that give lucrative employment to
men must be located here. In the
uoom days when immense manu-.
featuring plants were esta blished,
evidently upon foundations Of
sand, but undoubtedly with the
best of intention by their pro-
jectors, they failed Of success be-
cause they were not adapted to
this locality, or were mismanaged.
Either it cost more to operate
them here than at competing
points, or else there was no ready
market FIR their products. At
any rate one after another Of
these institutions on which the
hopes of tn, speculators, large and
small We're founded passed away.
Nothing has come to take their
places. Great plants which may
b. ea-,ly adapted to. many differ.
ent branches Of manufacturing
n:c idle at time when there are
in other parts Of the country,
even in Minnesota, new factories
being built and put III operation
There must be some reason why
III the revival Of manufacturing
Duluth is not selected as q location
for new enterprises, and these rea-
sons should be honestly hunted
up and the objections offered by
prospective investors removed.
There are many lines Of BUSH ess,
both m .nufacturing and jobbing,
that should be profitable here and
for which there is an undoubted
demand. What are the reasons
that capitalists cannot b. pre-.
voiled on to invest their money In
them'"
The Herald considers two rea.
sons that are sometimes heard
there for capitol avoiding the city.
One is high taxes, and the other
the policy Of some labor unions.
The paper suggests certain lines
Of manufacturing that promises
success, and invites a general dis.
cusslon throughth columns of the
best methods to revive business in
the city.

the new introductions of recent years.
The worst agricultural weeds to-day,
he contends, are old and well-known
enemies-the horsenettle (Solanum
Carolinense), the English lily (Convol-
vulus arvensis), the Canada thistle
(Onicus arvensis) and the yellow cress
(Nasturtium Sylvestre). These are
pernicious because every broken piece
Of root makes a new plant, and the
first breaking up of the hoe or Guilt
vator may add to, rather than decrease,
the number of these vegetable enc
mics. One has to keep hoeing the
livelong season to prevent these little
pieces from making leaves before they
will die natural death. OF the new
corners, if one is smart enough to
keep the weed destroying implements
going before the seeds mature, they
are easily destroyed. The axiom in
botanical science that plants cannot
live without one season of healthy
leaves, is useful to those who have to
battle for weed destruction. New
York Independent.

Locate the Undcrdrains,

Wherever an underdrain has been
laid, either map of the ground
should be drawn, Or such other mem
orandum as will enable the owner of
tho land to always know where it may
he found. There is nothing more
provoking to the buyer of farm that
is only partly underdrained than his
inability to decide just where the cid
drains are located and what size con-
duit they have. OF course, the drain,
if in working order, will show within
two or three rods where tile or stone
may be found. But to reach it then
requires much needless digging,
which could all have been avoided il
the man who laid the drain had been
careful to make record of it's location.

New Weeds.

New weeds ore of continual occur
renee; that is to say, immigrants from
other localities, or parts Of the world,
ore continually appearing in the cult
vator's domain that the cultivator does
not desire to grow there. This is the
definition of weed. In recent years
government officials, and others in
national and State publications, have
been giving particular attention to
these first appearances of unwelcome
plants; and the lists are something re-
markable. It would appear that the
condition Of unrest is as prevalent
among plants as among animated be-
ings. A prominent horticultural serial
asserts, however, that scarcely one OF
the many introductions of the last de-
cade can be termed pernicious. The
writer contends that the buttercups
and daisies now permitted to grow by
the millions in our fields and pastures
without special remark, are more per
nicious to the agricultural interests
than anything is likely to be among

Mineral N1anures For Glover.

The clover is very exhaustive, both
of potash and lime, and also to some
extent of phosphate. All Of these
have to be supplied if the soil does
not contain them or the clover will
not "catch." In many localities lime
is deficient. It nearly always is on
sandy soils, and these have always
been most benefited by sowing land
plaster, which is made by crushing
gypsum, natural sulphate of lime
rock. A mixture of wood ashes with
finely ground land plaster makes a
"catch" of clover possible when it
could not be got without it. On land
that has no lime, large applications of
freshly slaked lime should be made.
It is better to purchase lime before
1t is slaked, as in shaking the lime
absorbs great amount Of water, and
enormously increases in bulk. Lime
can profitably be used where it is
abundant in the soil, as is shown by
numerous limestone rocks. 1t is u
common practice where limestone
abounds for farmers to make large
kilns in which to burn it. After sub
jecting the stones to great heat for a
whole day, and sometimes longer, the
stones will become white, and if water
is thrown on them they will divide
into fine pieces, into powder if the
burning has been thorough enoug h.
Much carbonic acid gas is given in
shaking lime, and if lime is put in the
soil. this gas helps to pulverize it and
make all it's plant food available. The
clover roots use up much lime: 1t is
because clover contains so much lime
that cut clover hay is such good feed
for hens in winter. It's lime makes
the shell Of the egg, while the nitro
genous part Of clover furnishes the
albumen Of which eggs ore mostl.

Farm and Garden Notes.

Badly-lighted stables are the cause
of eye troubles in animals, and badly
ventilated ones are the cause of lung
and stomach troubles.
As q colt or calf will not make q
good horse or COW without plenty to
eat and good care, neither will ayoung
tree develop into good-bearing one
if it is neglected.
Trees, vines and hedges should al
be trimmed up, the brush and rubbish
cleaned up and burned up during the
fine days of early spring, so that when
plowlng-time comes you will be ready
to pillow.
A common fault in setting straw
berry plants is in placing them SO
close together that they grow up
slender, soon coming together and the
fruit is thus too much shaded to de-
velop large size, good color or fine
