NEARING THE END.

the Horton law will die by limitation
That will put a stop TO boxing IN New
York. There Will be boxing, and the ques-
ton next in order IS, Where? Future
fights will probably not be Of the limited
round sort. That is. the championship
battles. There will be boxing in many
cities, in which the limit will be some
where about six or eight rounds, but
when It comes to \ decision in which the
championship title is involved, that sort
of battle will not answer. There are
places where boxers can settle their diff
ferences. yet it is a question where the
next real championship contest will oc-
cur. That Is. the next to follow those al
ready scheduled to take place in NewYork
Nevada has been suggested. The only
objection to that state is the difficulty i'll
getting a crowd, and without crowd
even a modern championship battle is
of little interest. Within brief period
however, patrons of the sport may expect
some sort Of announcement as TO what
will be done after New York closes It's
doors against the game.

In his letter to Congress, Jan. 10,
1900, the Secretary of the Treasury
said: 1.-THE revenues are now largely
exceeding disbursements from month
to month, and seem likely to do so for
an indefinite time, This condition
would be a menace to the business
world if assurances were not given that
this surplus would be diverted from
the treasury vaults to the public de-
positories where, while secure to the
Government, it would remain availab BILE
to public use.
The existence of over $500, 900, 900

Intensive Culture of Tomatoes

Drive 7-foot stake where the plant
is to grow. Then plant the seed or set
the young plant. The latter may
ripen first, but the seed plant will out
strip it in growth. Let nothing but
leaves grow below the first setting OF
tomatoes. After you have one good
setting you may let the plant fork
This gives two mainstems. Let no
more shoots grow until at least two
settings of tomatoes are formed on
each branch. Then let the vine fork
again. Keep all shoots below all these

ingly all shoots or tops of main branch
es. You will find good big tomatoes at
the top of the feet of stake you have
above the ground.
As many as thirtytwo good sized
tomatoes have been counted on one
stalk after the bottom branch had
ripened and was gone. Remem Der
that at the base of each leaf comes out
a branch. This stem Is tie one to
keep trimmed off. The blossom is on
the main stem. This leaf sprout will
sometimes come out again, and must
again be trimmed off. Only by severe
trimming are the best results obtained.
Should an early frost threaten, the
plant thus staked can be protected
until mature with blankets. If not
staked it would probably cover 10
square feet of space on the ground and
be lost. The flavor of the tomato is
far superior to those grown on the
ground.-V. G. Turner, in Orange

Southern Pacific Makes a Creditable Finan-

The latest statement of the earnings
of the Southern Pacific Company is for
the month of March last and for the
first nine months of the present fiscal
year, July l, 1899, to March 81, 1900,
inclusive. The company's receipts
continue to be remarkably large. In
March the gross earnings were IS, 234,
81, an increase of S506, 966 over the
same month of the year before. Oper-
ating expenses were s3,67S, s99, an in
crease of $57S,577. Earnings in excess
of operating expenses were 81, $50, 962,
or decrease of $71,61 over March,
1899. For the first nine months of the
present fiscal year thL gross earnings
aggregated the large amount of S48,
047, 234. This is a monthly average in
excess of 81, 300,0 900. These gross re-
ceipts represent an increase over the
same period of last year of Sc, 592, 956
Operating expenses amounted to $50,
925, $50, or an increase of 81, ,O54, 100.
Earnings in excess of operating expen-
ses were S17, 121, 645. The latter repre-
sents, in spite of the big jump in ex-
penditures, an increase of So, 538, 166
over the same period of last year.
This prosperous condition of the COM
pany is due to the development of To-
cal, coast and overland traffic, also to
very favorable traffic conditions in
Texas, Arizona and New Mexico.
Trans-Pacific business also shows re-
markable increase in volume.
