In every city and large town in the
United States the Sister of Charity has
become a familiar object. The Catholic
Sisters-sweet messengers of charity,
ceaseless and interchangeable in their
labors-move quietly and swiftly in and
out among the people, receiving, dis
pensing, assisting and comforting.
Neither heat nor cold; fatigue or danger,
deter them from their errands of mercy.
They are to be found in palace and
howell; in the boulevard and brothel
Nothing daunts them. Nothing dis,
cOurages them. Vast Institutions of
refuge for the homeless and hopeless
have arisen in every city by their tire
less labOrS.
By no means the least service thew
render helpless humanity is their dis
pensatiOn of medicine. Their experience
among the sick, and their anxiety to be
of assistance to them, soon lead them to
know the most efficient and safe rene
dies. 1t would be impossible that so
popular and valuable remedy as Pc
ru-na could have escaped their atten-
ton. Many letters have been received
from institutions of this kind praising
the benefit that Pe-ru-na has been to
them.

the morning sun and one that don't,
and as this makes all the difference
between profit and loss we must To-
cate it accordingly. To get a warm
bed for the seed one has to plant ii
on ridges, that is to say, the land
must be prepared in such a way that
the hills where the seed is planted is
as warm as possible, but not too dry
for successful termination. The most
feasible way to accomplish this is to
lay off the land early in February by
running burrows six feet apart and
scattering about five hundred pounds
of a good melon fertilizer in these
burrows and bedding on to them,
making what might be called low
| broad beds. In the course of a couple
of weeks, lay off the land the other
way with an ordinary bull tongue, and
at every check of the furrOW apply
about half a pound of the same fer
tilizer This must be we'll mixed with
the soil at the same time of applica-
ton and left that way for a week or
two. Applying the fertilizer immedi-
ately before planting the seed is not
recommended, as the gases thrown off
by the decomposition of the fertilizer
in the soil on application is fatal to the
sprOuting seed, hence the failure of SO
much seed to terminate. The seed is
often blamed for being poor in quail
ty, when it was not to blame at all
When planting the seed if a rain has
occurred since the fertilizer was APP
piled the crust on the soil must b.
in each hill. After they come up only
three Of the thriftiest of them must be
left, the others pulled out From that
time on eternal vigilance must be the
Watchword, as everything depends on
the care and attention given. 1t pays
to make this a pet crop. After the
vines begin to run all melons forming
on laterals should be pulled off and
only those on the main stems allowed
to grow and not more than six or sew
en- to any one hill
In marketing this crop it has got to
be marketed in it's own particular
crates 1t has got standard in all
markets, and the "Rocky Ford crate
is well known on all markets. 1t is
of a peculiar shape and holds little
over a bushel, averaging in number
forty-fve melons per crate. The size
of the crates is 12X12X24. One point
[ would like to impress upon those in
tending growing this most desirable
melon is, that they use a suitable fer
tilizer because if the fertilizer is not
right the result will be a soft melon
and poor shipper, entailing loss to
the grower and giving the section of
the shipment a bad name.
The most important matter in con-
nection with melon growing is the
standard of the fertilizer used, and
too many growers overlook this fact.
The analysis Of a good cantalOupe fer
tiliZer should show 8 per cent phos-
phoric acid, to 10 per cent potash
and 2 per cent. nitrogen. This should

Cantaloupes as a Cash Crop.

lulOfuldIlOu f0IdClNe 10 raising cdnIa'
loupes:
The West Florida farmer, owing to
disadvantage for raising what might
be termed strictly cash crops. The
fact of being able to make his hog and
hOminy crop a successful one still
leaves him minus real income in
cash for general expenditures for
some of the necessary creature COM
forts that all intelligent men like and
desire to have. There are some crops
that are pre-eminently suitable for
principle ones being: an early crop of
Irish potatoes, a watermelon and a
cantaloupe crop, and it is the last of
the three mentioned that l want to
draw the attention to at this time.
Generally speaking, when a man
plants a crop he wants to harvest
that crop as quickly as possible. A
cantalOupe crop Of the early varieties
is ready for market eighty days after
planting the Seed and the trouble
with our staple crops is, that the sea-
son is so long and we wait a great
length of time before getting our re-
turns, even if we are able to turn
them into spot cash on harvesting
RI1f in fol
crop we must grow the variety that is
best suited to our section, and at the
same time is popular in the markets
of the country. During the last few
years cantaloupe has been on tho
market, that is popular everywhere,
namely the ''ROcky. Ford 1t is a
small melon of the Melted Gem va
riety, but of an Oblong shape ana
weighing on an average one and a
half pounds each 1t is an exception
ally fine melon, and all those who once
taste it will insist on getting nothing
else. There is as much difference be-
tween it and the ordinary musk melon,
as there is between musk melon and
a turnip; in fact a genuine specimen
tastes more like a high grade banana
than an ordinary melon. An enOr-
nous trade has sprung up in the large
cities among the high class restau-
rants and hotels in this melon, and
the supply last year was not equal to
the demand. To produce this melon
to perfection, a warm sandy soil such
as we have in West Florida is neces.
sary. In fact it is more at home he1e
in West Florida than anywhere else
that / know of except in it's native
home, in Rocky Ford, Colorado. Our
rolling sandy country will produce a
crop that can not be beat in quality
and general appearance, and when
mention the fact, that the average
yield is about $50 crates Of a bushel
each to the acre, said crates selling in
the Northern markets at from 81 to
S2.7j each, it is seen that it is a very
good cash crop to make, but there is
one point we can not neglect in con-
nection with this crop and that is to
get it under way in time to get it on

Three ballots We're taken for United
States Senator at yesterdays joint ses-
sion, but the first showed no change
from that taken on Monday. the sec
ond no change from the first, and the
third no change from the second.
A STORY was f1oated abroad that two
or three scattering votes had been
promised for Burns but whether the
rumor was true or whether it started
as did the several thousand which pre-
ceded it can only be surmised.
When the first ballot brought no
change, Senator Leavitt of Alameda,
moved that another be taken, and as
everybody agreed, another was taken
accordingly. Then Leavitt demanded a
third ballot. A ron call was demanded
and the motion carried by vote of IL
to AZ. There appeared to be nothing
cohesive about the vote of any par
ticular faction, the members voting as
the fancy took them.
At any rate, three ballots were taken
yesterday, and the vote on each was
the same as on the other two, the fol-

for the election of delegates to nominat-

Their amendment. Amendments came
in thick and fast and some offered gave
rise to a deal of debate. The partcu-
Lar amendment fixing the date for hold
ing primaries ON the the last Tuesday
of August was vigorously attacked on
the ground that interior counties would
have no time to get their delegates TO
a State convention, after electfng them.
An amendment to the amendment was
finally adopted, fixing the date for
holding primaries on the last Tuesday
OF July AS amended the bill was or
dered to engrossment.
SAN FRANCISCO JUDGES.
The following were read the second
time:
S. B. Sc, by Curtin, amending Sec
ton 1871 of the Political Code. relating
to salaries of Justices of the Supreme
Court, and Superior Judges, and of Of
ficers connected with the Supreme
Court
An amendment increasing the salar-
les of Superior Judges of San Francisco
to $1,000 per annum, met with opposi-
ton from Bulla and Cutter, and was
championed by Morehouse. Gillette
and Sims opposed the amendment, and
Davis favored it, citing instances where
learned Judges of San Francisco SUI
perior Courts had resigned their offices
because the remuneration was made
quate. He said that at the present time
there are Judges on the bench at San
Francisco who ought not to be there,
because capable men would not take the
positions owing to the small salaries.
He thought the salary paid ought to be
sufficient to attract able lawyers.
Gutter said Davis argument meant
nothing unless it meant that able
Judges could be secured for $4,000 and
ifol LOT S4,UUV a year. he commended
that the amendment was only an open
ing wedge, and that within five years
every county in the State would be ask
ing to have the salaries of their Judges
increased
Wolfe favored the amendment, as did
also Braunhart, Shortridge and STRAIT
ton, and was adopted by a vote of Is
to IA. Without further amendment the
bill was ordered printed.
S. B. 121, by Dickinson, TO repeal an
Act authorizing the allowance, settle
ment and payment of claims against
the State, was read the second time
and ordered printed.
At 4:45 o'clock an adjournment was
taken until 10 o'clock this morning.
