Washington, March 2S.-There has been
considerable correspondence between the
war department and the treasury depart
ment over the hold-up of the Olivette at
Tampa with 14O men of the Second South
Carolina Volunteers.
When she arrived at Tampa the officers
said they did not want to stop her to have
the baggage of the troops fumigated. Sur
geon General Wyman said the treasury
department officials agreed that the fumi-
CATION of baggage should take place. Act
ing Secretary Meiklejohn sustained the ac-
ton Of the treasury department, but gave
the soldiers permission to come ashore.
The officers of the Olivette wanted to
take her TO Savannah or Charleston, but
the Mayors of these cities said that the
olivette would not be permitted to enter
either of these ports until the regulate
were complied with.

Illinois has many honey plants which

because of lack of bees thousands OF
dollars worth of nectar wastes every

Il Is SO difficult to cut and cure the
white clover after il has ripened its
seed that this seed must always be
high priced. Il is therefore worth

everything they grow is too cheap to
give them any profit TO seed plentifully
with white clover on some land that is
reasonably free from weeds. and grow
this crop as a speciality. What is now
marketed is secured from the hand
