Pollen Exhaustion.

Pollen exhaustion is the great sourc,
of the unfruitfulness of the strawber
ry all through the country. The seed
are the eggs of the plant, SO to speak
and all fruit grows receptacle TO
the fruit to grow in, and if the seed
are not fortified no pulp or fruit)
will develop; or, if the pollen lacks pc
tency no process of cultivation will
cause the plants to produce large, lu
ciOus fruit. You can increase the fol
iage and raise large numbers of run
ners, but when it comes to bearing
fruit the impOtency manifests itself
and the plant remains wholly or part
ly barren.
You see them white with bloom
making great show of flowers, bu
when the harvest comes there are NJ
berries. The trouble is there are no
enough fertile plants to pOlleniZe 81
many blossoms, and of those pollen
lied the potency is so low the fruit
buds of the strawberry are formed
in the fall and are ready to burst into
bloom as soon as warm weather ap
pears in the spring, hence the necessi
ty Of securing good, strong plants thar
have not been fruited into impotency
If your bed is impOtent the foliage
will show the weakness and be pale
and fall an easy victim to rusts and
other fungi which the plant, strong il
fruiting vigOr, would readily resist
The trouble is some dealers sell plants
from an old or WORKOUT bed. The
strawberry runner is only bud of thu
old plant and contains all the weak
ness of diseases of the old plant an,
whatever tendency to barrenness O
| making fruit buds they may have will
be found in the new runner, eXcep
so far as it may be strengthened by be
ing placed in new rich soil. If yOl
have pollen exhausted bed the hes
thing you could do would be to pillow i
UP, as the plants are likely all more o
less diseased. Then in the spring
would set out a new bed of those va
rieties which you know will do we'll il
your locality.
In selecting varieties, arrange t.
have every third row of the bi-seXua
plants; that is, plant two rows Of TIL
pistillate plants and then a row of tn
other, selecting early, medium ant
late varieties in order to prOlong tn
fruiting season. A model location
would be a hill, using the southern
slope for maturing early fruit and
northern slope for late. One may thu
prolong the season ten days to tw'
weeks. Set the plants in soil well ma
nured, with the manure scattered even
ly around, and then plOwed, pulver
lied, dragged and rolled, IN order t.
press the soil together SO closely tina

water to the surface. The strawberr.

the first season, but / would not lie

it is also a good plan when they frs
begin to run to take a little soil as sOOl
as leaves form, so they will root quick

 There was some desultory firing by the enemy in the outskirts of Iioilo, but not a single American was injured.

HKVHNA'S POSTOFFICE.
Director Rathbone Succeeds in Infro-
 duCing American Methods.

Havana, Feb. 14.-Havana has a genuine American postofice now. Director of Posts Rathbone has not designated a postmaster yet, and is having more trouble than a congress- man with a postofHce fight to settle. The leading candidate is F. H. Hatha- way, of Chicago. He has the indorse- ment of General r. V. Greene and other prominent men, and also of lead ing Cubans and Spanish merchants. Some of the Cubans, it is asserted, have withdrawn their endorsements and demand the appointment Of Gu ban. MT Hathaway denies this, and is sending a second petition to Washing ton with Cuban signatures. Director Rathbone insists that if an American is named he shall be an experienced postOffice official. He said tonight:
 q have recommended to the depart ment at Washington that an eX- perienced man be taken from the ser vice and placed in charge of the Ha- vana postofTice. I shall adhere to that recommendation. The service would have been improved 50 per cent if we had had such a man in charge 1 have nothing to say about MT. Hathaway, except that he is not an experienced postoffcc official
 General Lee has returned from the Isle of Pines. He found everything quiet and will send single company to act as @ garrison.
 Two hundred enlisted men in the Tenth infantry asked fer their dis charge on the ground that the ratifi- cation of the peace treaty releases them from service under the terms ot enlistment, claiming that they are in the same position as the volunteers.
 M. J. Dady, of Brooklyn, has arrived here with his attorney. Everything re- garding his claim to a contract for the sewerage system of the city is uncer- tain. The military authorities will take no action in the absence of in- structiOns from Washington.

PARTICULARS OF TEE FIGHT
Administration at Washington Very Much Pleased 10 Learn That All Foreign Interests in inc Captured City Are Being Well Guarded DeweY'S TerSe MeSsage-Whaf LIOVd'S Agent Says.

Washington. Feb. H. Messages in confirmation of the press reports de- tailing the capture of Iloilo were re- ceived at the war department today with considerable satisfaction. While no apprehension had been felt as to General Miller's ability to capture the capital of the Nisayan federation, CT, for that matter, anything else that was wanted in the archipelago, reports of the strong entrenchments that the natives had been constructing around the town led to the fear that she land ing would Ee a bloodier affair than either of the battles at Manila.
 It was with great satisfaction, there fore, that Admiral DGvey's dispatch was received saying that we had lost no men at all and that the casualties among the natives were much smaller than at first reported. The fact that the foreign interests at Iloilo are be- ing satisfactorily guarded is another source of eradication to the admins tration. This fo-estalls criticism or danger of interference from any of the foreign powers, which has all along been a complication tEct had to be considered as a possibility, but which it was intended to avoid at all costs.

PLAN TO BREAK DEADLOCK
California Legislators Think They
 See d Way 10 Elect d Senator.

Sacramento Cal, Feb. 1.-The first step toward breaking the senatorial deadlock has been taken. Late this afternoon twelve of the republican members who have been voting for neither Burns IlOr Grant, held a meet ing and agreed to do all in their power to unite on some candidate other than Grant CT Burns, and to secure his cleo tion. The gentlemen then agreed to see the other republicans who repre- sent tho scattering republican vote. and to obtain, if possible, their CO., operation in the plan outlined. All but a few Of these have been seen and have agreed to go into the proposed meeting.
 It i5 understood that the candidates who have been receiving the scatter- ing vote are satisfied with the plan proposed.
 State Senator Bulla of Los Angeles has thirteen votes. It will take six teen to control the proposed caucus. It is understood that Scott has agreed to throw his two votes to Bulla giving him fifteen. The Los Angeles man will then require but one vote to control the caucus. He will probably be given the first chance before the joint as sembly. Another meeting will be held tomorrow afternoon.

CT classes, especially, to undertake the cultivation of 'jhis fruit. The banana only takes fourteen months to grow, and therefore, unlike coffee and or anges, the cultiva5or does not have to wait several years for the crop.
 Methods of local administration diff fer so greatly in different provinces in Cuba that the wisdom of appointing 2 goverEor CT commander for each prov fnce is unprecedented. As much Iati- tude as possible should be given these officials. Tho provincial governors should have the power to decide all questions apportaining to local mat ters, for the fewer the references to Havana, the sooner the people Of Cuba $ realize tho difference be- tween Spanish possession and United States occupancy. For military pur- poses tie government of the island may easily be vested in one central authority at Havana.

Cleveland, O., Feb. 14.-Mrs. Mary Timmins, who is to run for school council, will make an effective move in that direction of political distinction next week. She will form "woman's republican league and will rent a vacant storeroom for headquarters.
 Mrs. Timmins will have a committee favorable to her candidacy in charge. This committee will organize the en- tire female vote of the city and will appoint subcommittees to canvass the male vote. Literature will be dis. pensed from the headquarters of the league and circular letters sent to every voter in the city.
 Mrs. Timmins will keep the head quarters open during the primary cam paign. It is probable that pink teas will be given in the interest of the fe- male vote and cigars dispensed to the men

DETAILS OF THE CAPTURE.
Shells From the Warship5 Soon Drove
 the Insurgents From IlOilo


 Manila, Feb .1A.-Particu'a ars of tho capture of IloiIo by the United States forces under Brigadier- General Miller on Saturday last have been received On the morning Of Friday, February 10, General Miller sent an ultimatum to the commander Cf the rebels on shore notifying him that it was his intention to take Iloilo by force if necessary. The non-comba.tants and foreigners were warned to leave town within twenty four hours. The rebels were also warned they must make no further bel igerent operations
 The gunboat Petrel was then moved to position close in-sho-e and near the rebel fort, while the cruiser Boa-on took up her station at the other end Of town. Friday passed quietly. During the day many refugees left tho town of IloilO. A majority of them were taken on board the foreign ships lying in the harbor.
 The searchlights from the United States warships wee kept all night long Illuminating it's defenses. Tho rebels, so far as the lo0k-outs on the ships cou,Gdise over, remained quie-ccn5 all night. At o'clock on the mUrn- ing of Saturday, February II, the g'ln- boat Petrel signalled to the cruiser Boston that the rebels were working in their trenches
 In return the Petrcl was ordered to fire warning shots over the town from her 3-pOunders. This was done and the rebels replied with 2 harmless fusi- Jade. The Boston and PetrCl chen bom- barded the rebels trenches, completely clearing them of occupants in a very short space of time.
 Soon after the bonbardmcnt began flames broke out simultaneously in various parts of the town. Thereup3n forty eight marines, acting as infantry and artillery, were landed from the cruiser Boston, and company 'was sent ashore from the gullboat Pe-rel These detachments marched straight into the town of Iloilo, and hOisting the stars and stripes over the forts, took possession of the place in the name of
