CUBANS MAY CA USE TROUBLE
RhEID ORATORS ADVISE INHABITANTS

RhRID ORATORS ADVISE INHABITANTS
TO REPUDIATE THE ARMIsTICE.
Santiago de Cuba. Aug. 15.-Troube with the
Cubans is brewing. Their attitude is one Of
sullen hostility toward America. The better
class IN Cuba favors the annexation Of the
island to the United States, and majority Of
the masses are ready and anxious to work and
accept the shelter and protection afforded by
an American protcctorate; but they are in
nuenced by a certain class Of rabid orators
and breeders Of sedtion and rebellion against
anything smacking of law and order.
This infammatory class demands and urges
tie recognition Of Cuba for Cubans and spurns
all offers or suggestions tending to prosperity
under an American irotectorate, and excites
popular discomfort. This is exactly the class
that pushes itself most into evidence. and whose
views and opinions are most overheard and
published
Their advice TO the Cubans is to repudiate
all offers Of peace or a cessation Of hostilities
and TO look upon the armistice as an agreement
between the United States and Spain on their
owp account and not binding upon the free
and independent State Of ,uba. whose hberat-

Leeks and shaIIots.

Thirty or forty years ago the leek was a
very common vegetable in Southern gar
dens compared to what it is now It is a
rare thing to find it growing in any garden
nowadays. When well grown the leek is
really superior as a boiled dish to the or
binary American onion. Since the intro
duction of the mild and delicate Italian
or Spanish sorts, however, there has been
less reason for cultivating the leek on the
score of its superior flavor to that of the
onion, but I have no doubt in some mar
kets the leek nicely punched would be
preferred by many customers to onions.
1t IS an easy crop to grow if good fresh
seeds are to be had. This is the first and
most important requisite. The best mode
of culture is to sow the seed in October or
November, In nicely prepared bed in the
garden and get the plants a good size Ga
size large as a broom straw to a cedar pen
cid by the time severe weather sets in.
With straw then mulch them enough to
protect the plants from freezing of the soil.
As soon as the severe weather is past, take
them up and transplant into rows two
feet apart. The soil should be dug deeply
and plenty of good compost worked into
it. If the soil is made rich the plants can
be set as close as five OF six inches in the
row In setting out put at least four
inches Of the plant into the soil. Later. as
they begin 10 mature, draw earth up about
the stems to the extent of two or three
inches more. so that they become bleached
perfectly white. The leek cannot be pull
ed up, but must be dug by running a sharp
spade under them
Leek seed can be sown in cold frames in
January and plants obtained large enough
to set out in February, and this is the
next best plan to sowing the seed in Oc-
tober.
The shallot is of more general cultiva-
ton than the leek or onion, and is found
IN most gardens. Under high culture the
shallots grow very large, and they are
very nice TO have in the garden for season.
ing baked dishes. and sometimes they are
very handy for frying a seasoning steak
and we prefer them at all times to garlic.
Every garden should have shallots ac-
cording to the needs OF the family
