FISHERY CONGRESS ADI0URNS.
A Number of Valuable Papers Were Read and
 Discussed.

Tampa Bay Hotel, Tampa Fla, Jan A- The National Fishery congress- closed to- night after hard days work A number of valuable papers were read and discussed.
 During the day a resolution was passed recommending that the international fish cry association be organized and the rec ommendation was carried out by selecting Dr. Alexander Agazziz of the United States, president; Mons. Pierre, of France
 first vice-president; A. Nelson Cheney, of
 New York, second vice-president H. N
 Smith, United States fish commissioner,
 secretary and treasurer. An executive committee of forty members representing every country was named. The place for
 the next meeting has not yet been de-
 cided upon. resolution was passed ac-
 cepting the invitation of the American
 Fisheries society for cooperation in the
 work of protecting fish. One of the most
 interesting results of the work of coa- gress here has been the discovery that Prawns exist in large quantities in the waters of Tampa bay. While deep sea dredging was being done on Saturday by the fish commission steamer Fish Hawk this discovery was made, although the preparations for such work were very im- perfect. Prawns are the greatest of shell fish delicacies and the discovery of their existence in waters tributary to the gulf
 will add largely to the revenues from the
 water products of these states.
 Before adjourning resolution was passed thanking Col. T 1T. Wright, promoter oi the congress; Governor Bloxham for call. ing it and MT. Plant and the Tampa board | of trade for their hospitable entertain l ment of the congres. A large number oi l papers whose authors were not present were read by title only. "A committee was l appointed to prepare all papers and the entire proceedings for publication and dis tribution, after which the congress ad- iourned sine die

Tickle the Earth With a Hoe.

From the American Agriculturist.
 The gardener will always find abundant success if he will not neglect this tickling of the soil with hoe or cultivator. It is wonderful what tillage will bring out of the soil. Most men must till to keep down weeds. They do not realize that the bene- fits of this work are far above any mere weed killing.
 By persistent cultivation we get the soil loose and mellow, porous and light, so air can enter and roots freely branch and dis> tribute themselves throughout the entire mass of earth within their reach. Fur thermore, tillage is a breaking up pro- cess, particles of rock and organic matter being reduced in size and made available for the nutrition of crops.
 Then there is the immeasurable effect of shallow surface cultivation in forming a mulch upon the surface of the ground, a thin layer of loose, dry earth to cut off the rise of moisture to the surface and its sub sequent evaporation and loss to the use of the growing plants. Water in a drouth is priceless boon to vegetables, and con- serving the supplies of moisture is one of the most vital subjects with which the ag- riculturist has to deal. Tillage is to a certain degree manure, as was claimed by Jethro Full of old.

The Future of the Horse Industry.

Many horse breeders are led to believe that present low prices will continue almost indefinitely. To imagine that horse rais- ing will never prove remunerative, or that horses will never again bring good prices, is in my opinion a great mistake. The farmer must have his horses. The ma- nure horse on the farm today need have little fear of his being displaced by ma- chinery. No motor of any kind will give the same satisfaction under all circum- stances that a good team will, at an equal cost. Steam has been tried as a motive power in blowing on large scale, but it has never come into general use. Elec- tricity cannot be used on the farm until a perfect storage battery is invented. Elec- tricity will do very well for propelling street cars on their smooth, solid tracks, where each successive trip is made over exactly the same route. On the farm it would be quite different. The bicycle has undoubtedly taken the place of many horses, but not to the extent generally sup posed.
 Because horses are cheap now, is no rea- son why they should remain 80. Any other branch of the live stock market fiuctuates with the supply and demand. Because the horse market has been away down for sev- eral years, is one of the best of reasons

intimates, as at Lyons, were military men. She was cosmopolitan, so she drew re- eruits in this field from all countries. For this reason, and long before the Dreyfus affair, her "salons' were looked upon with suspicion by the government, which. how ever, never could gather sufficient evidence upon which to act, even if it had wanted to.
 Among the many persons with whom she was upon intimate terms at this time were Capt Borup, of the United States army; the Baroness von Krauze, whose husband, suspected of being a spy, was forced to leave the country; Marie Valiant the mis- tress of an Italian military attache, and Anna Bordsonn, for five years the mistress of Capt. Dreyfuss. Ex-King Milan was afterward the master of the house until his money gave out, and was succeeded by M. de Fraissinet, a well known young man, who declares that his fortune of several millions was entirely dissipated by the vi- comtesse.
 For the. last six or eight years the vi- comtesse has been comparatively out of the movement It is known that at one time she experienced change of heart and got exceedingly virtuous, insisting upon mak- ing the acquaintance of the families of the great men she knew. Provided with an authentic title and having a certain dis tinction of manner, this demand was not refused, and she made some headway in fashionable life for a while. But she doubt less thought the respectable society of Paris dreary waste, for she soon gave up all her new-made connections and re- turned to what she liked better And it is precisely this relation of women of her class to the respectable elements of Paris society that makes her career interesting, if not more noteworthy than the careers of her sisters.

for predicting an upward turn. before long, and horses will then be as high as they are low now. Horses will become scarce as we'll as other stock. They are certainly scarce in our section now. Very few strictly good marketable Iefses can be found Farmers quit breeding years ago. It did not pay; horses could be bought for less money than 1t cost to raise them, The supply has been cut off at both ends There are several classes of horses that are bringing good prices now, and will so con- tinue in spite of steam, electricity or bicy- cles. The extra heavy draft horse and the fancy coach or driving horse will con- tinue ito be in demand for the next century at least. The supply of horses that will mature and be marketable in 1900 is very small indeed. The farmer who owns good brood mare or two can very profitably turn his attention to raising good horses. In order to raise good ones, he must breed a finely built, sound mare to an equally well built and sound sire. Constitutional and structural defects are largely heredi- tary and should be carefully avoided

PRINCIPAL EVENTS
Of the Strike of the Mill Operatives of New
 England.

Boston, Jan. 24.-The principal events in the industrial strike in New England today were, first, the return of the striking work men of the Queen City mills at Burlington, Vt; secondly, the strike of those employed in the spinning department of a mill of the Fall River iron foundry and thirdly, the refusal of the weavers union of Fall River by a vote of IF to IA to allow the King Philip mills weavers to strike. The conten- tion on this last incident was the most in- teresting. The refusal was given on the ground that all the other operatives have adopted the same cut down of Il 1-9 per cent, and such a strike would weaken the union. Aside from these events the situa- tion in the other mill centers remained to- day unchanged.
