GREAT CONVENIENCE.
why Every Potato Grower and + Fruf'
Grower Should Have an Ample
Supply of Bushel Boxes.

In handling apples, potatoes and
other vegetables which are usually
measured, there is nothing handler
than bushel boxes, as they are called,
but which are really crates. These may
be made by anyone who is handy with
a saw and hammer, and cost so little
that any farmer can afford to supply
himself with them. They are furnished
knocked down" by several firms in the
country, but they can be made at home
just as well and at less cost.
They are usually made of Eastwood
or elm boards; sawed from one-half to
three-eighths of an inch thick by three
inches wide, for the sides and bottom,
and inch boards are used for the ends.
To make them take an inch board
that is foot wide and cut it into pieces
IA inches long. For the sides and bot
tom cut the strips 1872 inches long
These, when nailed together, make a
box 1914 inches long, IA inches wide and
IL inches deep, which will hold a bushel
of potatoes when level full.
When digging potatoes or gathering
apples, tomatoes, turnips or other such
things. the boxes can be hauled to the
field, filled, set in tiers on the wagon
and taken to the house and unloaded in
sery much less time than it would take
to load and unload without them. When
hauling to market the boxes come
handy and big load can be put on and
unioaded in a very short time, and if
they are properly made and filled they
give the product a nice appearance tha
goes a long way toward making
good sale for them.
1t will be found on figuring the con.
tents of the box as above given that it
holds more than a half-bushel measure
twice full. This allows for the custom
nry heaping measure that is required to
make 60 pounds, the standard weight
for a bushel of potatoes. In some states
there is a standard weight for apples
also, about So pounds to the bushel.
One who begins to use these bushel
boxes are rarely willing to dispense
with them.--Farmers' Voice.

and afterward cut out the circle for the

size of your collar. Make the collarette
one inch larger around the neck than

Make an opening in the back of the
collarette and finish with a puff of

THE MARKETS.
Wall Street Review.

New York, Sept. 1O.--The stock mar
ket today presented all the character
istics OF genuine reaction. Last weeks
sharp recovery eliminated the short in
terests very largely and the forced
liquidation of profits had been mostly
completed during the previous contin-
ued decline. The market was thus
freed to a great extent from the tech
nical influences and in condition to re-
spond TO the prospects for general busi-
ness in the country. Its failure to do
so yesterday was attributed to the un-
settling influence of the slump in Sugar
The bears were evidently timid about
continuing their campaign further
against Sugar and were inclined to
cover, so that this influence towards
reaction was removed. Nevertheless,
the market dropped heavily towards a
lower basis with one or two exceptions
In the list and closed only barely steady
at level generally per cent. or more
below last nights level. Total sales
were 452, 100 shares.

San Juan, Island of Porto Rico. Sept.
10 delayed in Transmission)-T
evacuation of the outlying positions oc-
cupied by the Spaniards began today.
Aguadilla, San Sebastian and Laros
were abandoned by them, and the
troops of General Cartons brigade
and the Eleventh infantry moved in
and hoisted the American flag. The
Spanish troops from the abandoned
positions are being concentrated at
Arecibo, from whence they will reach
San Juan by railroad so soon as trans
portation is available. They could not
enter the city before, owing to its
crowded condition. On Wednesday the
Spaniards will evacuate the island OF
Niequos, where a company Of Ameri-
can troops. dispatched from General
Grants brigade. has already been
landed. The Spanish troops from the
Island of Viequos will remain at HUI
macao until the Spaniards fall back on
the line of the military road. Spanish
control is now confined to within a lire
drawn from Humacao, to Abonito and
from there to Areclbo, less than one
third of the island.
The Spanish evacuation commission
American commissioners today. offic-
ialy informed the Americans that they
had been notified Of the sailing from
spain of two transports intended to
embark troops here. and also that 400
Spanish soldiers will sail from here to-
morrow on transport which is ex-
pected from Cuba. The departing
troops consist Of 200 sick men and 200
,,f
The meeting of the commissioners
was entirely without friction, and it
was owing to the good feeling pre-
vailng between our soldiers and those
at Spain that it was decided to allow
the company Of Americans to land at
the Island Of Niequos before the Span
iards left.
1t was decided today in the interest
of the order of the island to allow
Americans to enter the Spanish lines,
and vice versa. in pursuit of maraud-
ers. This obliterates the neutral zone
between the lines and it is believed it
will result in the complete suppression
of disorders at Utuade and other places
in the interior, and afford protection
to natives and Spanish residents alike
In spite of the fact that some of
them have been disillusioned, the in
flux of American promoters continues
Most of them are at Ponce and unable
TO reach San Juan, owing to the mil
itary regulations. An agent of the
Sugar Trust is here, and many others
are seeking business opportunities
franchises and concessions. All of then,
are fretting over the unavoidable de.
lays.
The condition of the troops on the
island is not improving. Almost two
thousand men have reported sick. Gen.
eral Brooke is doing all in his power
to improve the condition of the sol
diers and afford them every comfort
possible. In so doing. he has ordered
every military tent on the island tc
be fitted with flooring

THE MANILA TROOPS.
A Question of the Rights of the
United States.

Washington, Sept. 20.-Some ques-
ton has arisen as to the rights of
the United States to send troops to
Manila under the terms of the pro-
toCol and the armsticc which followed.
Upon this matter being brought to
the attention of the officials of the
war department it was stated that un-
der the protocol Manila city, harbor
and bay were placed under the control
of the United States and that we have
the same right to reinforce Manila
that we would have to send troops
TO any other army post.
Spain, it was said, would have no
right to protest against the action of
the United States, as the movement of
troops to Manila was not like send
ing them to an island or station in dis
putS.
