vINELAND NOTES.

The combination OF irrigation
and brilliant sunshine in the fertile
valleys of the northwest, produce
some wonderful results. For exam
pie, most of the strawberry beds
planted in Vineland last March
bore strawberries enough in the
following May and June for the
family supply. and such eminent
authority as Robert Schleicher
whose fruit farm il within 5 miles
OF Vineland under like conditions,
states that his Strawberries set in
the fall produce a full crop during
the following season. Eastern grow.
ers find this hard to believe when
their experience teaches that full
crop Is not to be expected until the
setond fruiting season. Vineland
boasts many cherry peach and
pear trees which bore fruits the
first season from planting. o. A.
James has a peach tree set in March
'97 that in Aug. '9S yielded a bushel
of fine fruit. One 3,year old Idaho
pear tree near Vineland, produced
10 large, handsome fruits the third
year from setting. The Vineland
cherry orchards set in '9S will pay
handsome profit next year.

The Passing OF PopuItsm.

The populist party has been
buried again. From all over the
country the leaders Of the republi-
can and democratic parties are re-
joicing that the populist party is
"part" of the republicans hecause
the populist party is an educator
for an economic system that viii
take away the opportunity for class
advancement now enjoyed, and by
the democrats because they think
the populist factor is removed and
they VIII now reap all the credit
for reform" As long as the popu-
list party as such, remained in the
field it was a menace to the old
parties. For years it took the
abuse and ridicule Of the other par
les, but all the time the leaben
of populism was working. 1t forced
the democratic party out of the po-
sftion it occupied for thirty years
and made it come out, tardily it is
true for the people.
Today if the populfst party were
removed, both the old parties could
go back to their old sham fight on

Dead-Financial Loss Light.

Thirteen lives were lost April in
two fires in aristocratic mansions in
New York city. The most disastrous
blaze was that which destroyed the
home of Wallace c. Andrews, presi-
dent of the New York Steam Heating
company, East Sixty-seventh street.
Twelve lives were lost there, includ-
ing those of Mr.. and Mrs. Andrews,
and Mrs. Andrews sister-in-law, Mrs.
G. G. st. John and her three little chill
dren. One life was lost in the Adams
fire.
1t is fairly well established that the
fire in Mr.. Adams house was started
by sparks of burning fragments blown
from the fire on SiXty-seventh street.
1t was impossible however, for the fire
marshal to find out how the fire in the
Andrews house started.
The loss by the fires will amount to
$S25,000, of which 100000 is on the
Andrews house The insurance on
both is approximately 100000.

we at once find excuses for every
weakness and palliations of every
fault; we recollect thousand endear-
ments which before glded off our
minds without impression, thousand
favors unrepaid thousand duties I'M
performed; and wish, vainly wish. for
his return, not so much that we may
receive as that we may bestow happi-
ness ant recompense that kindness
which before we never understood. Let
US therefore make haste to do what
we shall certainly at last wish to have
done; let us return the affection of our
friends, and endeavor by mutual en-
dearments to heighten that tenderness
which is the balm of life. Let us be
quick to repent of injuries which re-
pentance may not be barren anguish /:
and let us open our eyes to every rival
excellence, and pay early and willing
ly those honors which justice will com
pei us to pay at last.

LOSS OF LIFE IN MONTANA.
Immense Ice Jams Turn Rivers
Into Raging Torrents.
TWELVE THOUGHT TO BE DEAD.
Prompt Use of Dynamite Causes an I'm
provement In the situation, and the
Danger Is Thought To He Over-Loss
Cannot Yet he Ascertainod.

The recent Chinook has made rag
ing torrents out of most of the rivers
in Montana, in many cases breaking
all records. The Yellowstone has
caused the greatest loss of life and
property. Ice jams have backed the
water up at Glendive and Miles City,
where the greatest damage has been
done.
At Miles City the entire south side
of the city was under water. Seventy
five houses had to be abandoned.
Dynamite has been used, and it is
supposed that the worst is over. The
loss cannot yet be estimated.
Washouts are reported all along the
Northern Pacific, and passenger trains
arc stalled all along the line.
Twelve persons are known to have
been victims Of the overflow caused by
the ice in the Yellowstone river below
Glendive. Ten Of the bodies have been
recovered.

believe the moisture problem must

Farmer. Directions that came with
the incubator that l have described,
called for water to be kept continuous
ly after third day. l followed direc-
tions faithfully with slim success, get
ting 60 and Go chicks from 100 eggs,
nearly all Of which were fertile. Then,
with fear and trembling began to lay
directions aside and experiment. l set
a hen same time as incubator and ex-
amined her eggs every day to see how
they were drying down. Was deter
mined not to put moisture in machine
till found its eggs drying away faster
than those under hen. On about the
14th day thought they needed little
moisture, so took a broom and pail
of water and wet my cement cellar
floor all over. Applied no more till
goth day. l wrung a cloth out of water
and laid it folded smoothly in mois-
ture chamber. Next day chicks APP

Had taken egg turner's out so incu-
bator then held 200 eggs, of which is
were infertile. Next hatch / followed
same plan of watching eggs under
hens, used no moisture whatever until
goth day. Got 176 chicks; the next
time got 1S1, using moisture same as
first time. So believe the nearer we
follow movements of the hen and con-
form to natures plan, the better sue

recently rode bareheaded through the
streets of Boston on bitter winters
day He is not by any means the only
president who has risked health and
life by the same needless exposure II
etiquette upholds or condones the
courteous act, then etiquette should
be condemned. For some reason our
people seem to think that presidents
have no more right to cover their
heads before a crowd of staring spec
tators than they have to wear a
crown. The wonder is that many of
the chief magistrates of this country
have not died of pneumonia long be-
fore their four years term of office
expired.
