Sharks and the Dead Whale.

The presence of any large quantity
OF easily obtainable food is always suffi.
oient to secure the undivided attention
Of the shark tribe. When "cutting in"
whales at sea, have often been amazed
at the incredible numbers of these crea-
lures that gather in a short space of
time, attracted by some mysterious
means from heaven only knows what
remote distances. 1t has often occurred
to us, when whaling in the neighbor-
hood of New Zealand, to get sperm
whale alongside without a sign of a
shark below or bird above Within
an hour from the time of our securing
the vast mass Of flesh to the ship the
whole area within at least an acre has
been alive with seething multitude of
sharks, while from every quarter came
drifting silently an incalculable host of
sea Birds converting the blue surface
of the sea into the semblance of plain
OF new fallen snow.
The harpooners and officers from their
lofty position ON the cutting stage slew
scores upon scores by simply dropping
their keen edged blubber spades upon
the soft crowns of the struggling fish,
the only place where shark is vulner-
able to instant death. The weapon
sinks into the creatures brain, he gives
a convulsive writhe or two, releases his
hold and slowly sinks, followed in his
descent by q knot of his Immediate
neighbors, all anxious to provide him
with prompt sepulture within their
own yearning aws.-National Re-

FARMERS TAKE NOTICE.
The Peninsula Horticultural Society to Meet
in SMYRNA Soon.

The people of Smyrna are anticipating
with good deal of interest the coming of
the Peninsula Horticultural Society, which
will hold its annual meeting here in the
Opera House on January 11th, 18th and
18th. The program includes papers and
discussions on nearly the whole range of
topics that are of special interest to the
fruit grower and market gardener, and the
most of these papers are by the practical
tillers of the soil who know just what they
are talking about when they get up to dis
cuss their lines of business.
H. L. VanDeman, of Parksley, Virginia,
one of the most widely known fruit men in
America will have a report on the general
condition of fruit growing; the Hon. JON
athan S. Willis, of Milford, will tell what
he knows about peach culture; G. Gundy
Brown, OF Camden, will report on apples;
Samuel L. Earle, of CentrevIlle, Md, will
have IA paper on pears, and SO the whole
list of fruits is considered. one by one, by
men who are successful specialists. The
subject of grapes and small fruits, which
is one that the farmers of this vicinity are
largely interested in, will come in for a
large share of attention. Jas. b. Gilchrist,
of Milford, who is known as one of the best
and most careful cultivators in the State,
as well as an intelligent, thoughtful man.
will treat the subject from his own expe-
rience in Delaware, and Walter F. Taber,
of Poughkeepsie, n. Y, will tell how it is
done in his State. Mr.. Taber is one of the
best small fruit growers in the United
States and has the most successful irrigat-
ing plant in the East
The public is cordially invited. Discus
sion is free All citizens, whether fruit
growers or not, will find these meetings
large. Ladies usually attend. 1t is hoped
that the Opera House will be well filled at
every session. The evening sessions will
be of "a popular character and all citizens,
ladies and children included, will be inter-
ested. On Wednesday night Professor G..
Harold Powell, of Newark, Del, will talk
about horticultural education and show
what the public schools can do to help it.
He will illustrate his lecture by lantern
slides.
On thursday night the Maryland Expert
ment Station will have its turn, and Pro-
fessor johnson, the entomologist, will dis
cuss insects. and Professor Townsend will
discuss fungOus diseases, and they will
illustrate their subjects by lantern pictures.
Upon the whole this promises to be the
best meeting in the history of the Society,
and Smyrna will try to do itself proud in
making the society welcome.
