the field. They are then lif:s
closely upon trays and carried to the
field. They are remarkably we'll pro-
v1ded with roots and suffer no check
when set in the permanent rows:
While the plants are in the beds the
fed is being prepared. It is plowed,
narrowed and thoroughly hnei by
means of a weeder run over it once a
week or ten days. and after each rain.
It not only pulverizes the surface but
kills weeds and turns up any gruos
and worms for the birds to remove.
The plants have, By this method, a
warm bed to start in, Which Is very
different from the usual cold comfort
forced upon them in early spring,
when, in order to be ready, the
ground frequently has to be Plowed
before it should be touched. The re-
naming treatment is the me as for
other beds.
This method permits Of easier spray.
ing of the plants for disease, which
operation occupies less time and re-
CURES less fungicide by far than Is
used in tie open field. A double
saving is thus effected. No spraying
is usually needed in the fed after the
plants are set; unless the germs Of
disease are already present IL great
quantity in it. Much more time is
allowed for transplanting since it may
be done when the greatest rush Of
spring work is over. Shipments Of
plants that arrive late can sometimes
be saved from utter loss by this plan.
Lastly, plants grown in this way are
in every respect equal to pot grown

again played b%attledore and shuttle
cock with the great single stickers,
and the third attempt to sail the first
race of the Columbia-Shamrock series
for the international trophy ended in
failure. The race was declared off ff-
teen minutes before the time limit eX-
PRED, with the yachts still five miles
from the finish. But the vast throngs
who went down TO the sea to witness
the battle royal were in a measure
compensated by seeing a magnificent
light weather duel. In the end the
disappointment to the patriots was
sharpened, perhaps, by the fact that
WREN the race was abandoned the
Columbia was in the lead and improv-
ing her position, and had the race been
finished the American champion might
nave had one acc to her credit.
After three trials the experts are
about as much mystiied as they were
at the beginning concerning the merits
Of the two boats. Nothing but a spank
ing wholesale breeze will furnish a
true test. Saturday, as on the two
previous occasions, the curse was laid
fifteen miles dead before the wind ana
return. So evenly matched were the
beautiful clean-limbed racers that
they rounded the outer mark like thor
oughbreds, almost neck and neck, and
finished with the Columbia's white
shark-like nose half a length in front
end in the weather position, but so
close was her green rival that the
black shadow of the shamrock's loom
ing sails was silhouetted against the
Yankees snowy canvas.
AS a result of yesterdays struggle
and those of Tuesday and Thursday,
the talent are a good deal COMPOUNDED.
Some of them differ as to the merits Of
the two boats. but they seem unani-
nous upon two things-that the Sham
rock is the ablest boat that ever
crossed the Western ocean Il lift the
mug, and what is still more important,
that she is more ably handled than the
defender. The superior seamanship

til the question of international yacht-

cues for such an arrangement came
from Sir Thomas Upton, owner OF the
challenger. There was no friction ~
reaching the agreement as to
change in dates. Sir Thomas Upton
at first asked that the race be started
daily after Tuesday. The club de-
cided that this would hardly be pru-
dent. In the first place it would be en-
tirely unfair to the public. Thousands
of persons have made arrangements to
attend the races on a certain day.
Hundreds OF excursions have been
arranged for, and to make a change IN
the racing dates on so short a notice
would not be right to the public. The
club is deeply grateful for the manner
in which the public has behaved at the
races. There is no interference with
the boats whatever. The club is CRATE
full to the public for this and it would
not be right to make such a sudden
change in racing dates.

portIaDd's Welcome to the Thir-

I'm Character.
Portland, Or, Oct. 10-Too much can
not be said about the people of Port
land for the way in which they have
entertained the Minnesota regiment.
1t was a wonderful demonstration OF
hospitality and the soldiers are simply
overcome by the attentions shown
them. AS oon as the outskirts o. the
city were reached the whistles were
heard shrieking, bells ringing and men,
women and children were seen waving
hands, flags and handkerchiefs. Busi-
ness was suspended in the mills, engi-
neers stopped their locomotives ana
footed, the Minnesota baLd played
and the soldiers cheered. AS the train
pulled across the bridge the steam
boats added to the general din, the
dispatch boat Mccullough fired the ma
tional salute and the soldiers became
so excited they could hardly wait for
the trains to pull into the station.
was n tremendous crowd await
ing the soldiers there, but there were
so many bands playing and whistles
blowing that n could not hear the
shouts Of welcome. The Oregon regi-
ment was lined up alongside the track
and shook their hats in the air as they
saw the familiar faces of their old
comrades. A parade was formed and
the regiment was escorted to the ar
mory where a banquet was served.
The streets of Portland were filled
with people and business was practi-
cally suspended for the day. The
buildings were decorated with flags
and Minnesota banners. The soldiers
were handed flowers and fruit, the wo-
men Wen among them to see if any
thing special was needed. The COM
ment along the line Of march was very
favorable. The people cheered. re-
marked on the size of the Minnesota
men, their style of marching.

The refusal OF some ultra-fashionable
London hotels to receive at dinner
guests not arrayed In what Is conyen-
tionally known as evening dress
raises some interesting questions. The
legal issues involved will presently be
determined in a court OF justice, some
of the excluded persons having begun
suits on the ground that a licensed
public house is under obligations to en-
terrain any guests who are OF decent
dress and demeanor. There certainly
seems to be a moral obligation to the
sam effect. 1t is true that the courts
and general opinion sustained a hotel
recently in rejecting guests clad in an
o~utlandish and offensive manner. But
to object to those who are merely wear
ing after 6 o'clock the same clothes
decent and even fashionable-which
they wore before that hour, and vino
thus do not conform to an arbitrary
and temporary detail OF fashion. Is to
establish a new philosophy OF clothes
which only the author OF "Sartor Re-
sartus" could characterize as ii de-
serves.
