Beets, carrots and parsnips are three
crops that are necessary to complete
all yardens. Bets and carrots are also
field crops, as they are excellent ad-
iuncts to hay and grain in winter Ihe
seed should not go into the ground
until the soil is warm, but the earlier
the better, as they should be given the
whole season to grow and mature
They are tender when very young
being easily destroyed by weeds or
orass. but when we'll under growth are
hardy and can endure dry weather
fairly vel. The nearer to the surface
the seed is placed the better, as many
futures of the gernination OF seed Is
due to deep covering. II the ground Is
rich large yields will result. For table
use the Egyptian and Blood Red varie-
ties of beets will be found excellent,
though there are also other good yarie-
ties in the seei catalogues. An early
and late crop of beets may be planted
for table use. Clods and Jumps will
do more harm to young plants than
grass, for which reason the ground
must be made very fine; in the garden
the use of the rake is preferred b the
harrow.

white, or silver skin, variety is favcr-
ite. as it is of mild flavor, but tie red
and.. yellow varieties are also excellent
as an addition.
When selecting melons for home use
avoid those vsrieties that are recon-
mended for their shipping qualities,
as such varieties must necessarily have
thick rinds and be grown mostly Tor
reaching the market in good condition
rather than for quality of flesh. The
"Kleckley" lis good variety for family
use, Of the cantaloupes the Emerald
Gem" is supeior to all others in quality
though it would probably not be
noticed on the market stalls.
1t is not desirable to plant seeds OF
vegetables too early. II the ground is
not warm the seed may rot before 1t
can terminate. Such crops as beans,
melons, squashes and egg plants will
not endure even cool nights. Get the
tomato plants well grown, in stocky
form, AMI have them ready for tranf'
planting as soon as the ground is warm
and danger from frost has passed.
Young celery plants should be start
ed. Sow the seed in rows, one foot
apar., and transplant when the plants
are three inches high, placing them
four inches apart in the row. The soil
for celery should be very rich and also
rather moist than dry. A special liquid
ferti izer for celery is soapsuds, but an
abundance OF manure or mixed fertil-
zer should also be used. 1t is very inn
poriant that the lows be kept clean and
the plant, watered during dry
period.
Garden seeds are usually planted
too deep. Small Sc eds require just
enough covering to give them moisture
and darkness. The soil sheul / be very
fine, so az to contain no Jumps. Some
seeds, however, such as peas and beans,
should be planted deep and the ground
rolled over them. Pse ssing The earth
on seeds hastens examination. and it
also increases the chances for the seeds
of weeds, but if the rows are made
straight It will not be difficult to keep
down the weeds until the crops get
well start ed.
Satisfy, or vegetable oyster, is not
extensively grown, but those who
know the value of the plant as an adj
dition TO tie. garden crops never omit
it, The Same may be mentioned OF
okra The satisfy seed should be put
in as soon as the ground is warm aud
the plants kept clean. Satisfy is very
hardy and will remain in the ground
all winter without injury.
For late crops manure the grNund
how and work it into the soil The
ground will be all the better by SO do
ing, AMI the rains will dissolve the
plant food of the manure, which wall
be absorbed by the soil. When the
seed is planted tie plant food vail be
ready AMI IN excellent form for tine
plants.
Put out the young strawberry plants
for next yeas crop. Every garden
can afford space for straw berries, if
even but few rows. Be sure and
get the plants of the ssaminale and
pistillate varieties or there will be no
fruit. A hundred plants, If the rows
are allowed to mat, may produce
thousand before next spring.

FOREIGN ENJOYS AT PEKIN
Agree Upon a BEsis for Peace NeGo-
tiations with China.

LONDON November 12-Dr. Morri-
son wiring to the Times from Pekin
Saturday says:
Pressed by the common desire for a
speedy termination of present condi-
tons the foreign ENJOYS have finally
agreed to the following terms to be pre-
sented in a conjoint note which, sub
ject to the approval of the govern
ments, will be pressed upon China as
the basis of preliminary treaty.
China shall erect monument to
Baron Won Ketteler on the site where
he was murdered and send an imperial
prince to Germany to convey an apol-
ogy. She shall infict the death pen
atty upon eleven princes and officials
already named and suspend provincial
executions for five years where the
outrages occurred. In future all Off
cials failing to prevent anti-foreign out
RACES within their jurisdiction shall be
dismissed and punished. This is a
modification of Mr.. Conger's proposal.)
Indemnity shall be paid to the
States, corporations and individuals
The Tsung-i-Yamen shall be abolish
ed and its functions vested in foreign
minister. Rational intercourse shall
be permitted with the emperor as in

RACED and the importation of arms aAd
war material prohibited. Permanent
legation guards shall be maintained and
also guards OF communication between

DID NOT SIGN THE SCALE.
Over Seven Thousand Men Connected
With Indiana Mines Idle.

With Indiana Mines Idle.
TERRE HAUTE, Ind, November u.
More than 200 hosting engineers and
1000 miners, in the State of Indiana
will be idle tomorrow as the result of
the failure of the Indiana block and
bituminous coal operators to sign the
scale presented to them to-day by the
engineers. A conference was held in
this city to-day at which the leading
operators Of the State were present and
also the executive officers of the Ma
tional Brotherhood Of Hoisting Engin-
GERS. The scale submitted is the one
now paid in Illinois by the operators
of that State, and is higher than that
paid in Indiana. The operators were
willing to pay the present scale in In
diana until the convention of the Unit
ed Mine Workers of America at Indian
apolis. in January at which time the
question of paying the Illinois scale
to Indiana miners was to have been
considered When the operators at to-
nights conference announced their in
tention of refusing to sign the scale I'M
III the matter could be decided at the
Indianapolis convention, Secretary
Jenkins and Chief Taylor, of the hoist
ing engineers brotherhood, wired the
officials of the different mining dis
tricts declaring a strike.
The adoption of the Illinois scale in
Indiana would mean an advance to
the engineers of at least 20 per cent.
The advance asked, the Indiana oper-
ators declare, is too much as the con-
ditions which govern the mining Of
coal in Illinois are much different from
those in Indiana. Engineers in this
State now receive from $65 to SIS per
month and work from eight to ten
hours a day. Illinois engineers re-
ceive from $65 to $50 per month and
work eight hours per day.

Dirty Piece of BUSINESS.
NEW YORK, November 1.-THE
grand jury this afternoon devoted its
session to the investigation of the al
legged divorce mill operated by w.

Mrs. Herrick appeared as the princi-
pal witness. Assistant attorney I'm
ger said that he appeared in number
Of cases. He said that the woman said
she met Zefmer and Maizon through
an advertisement They agreed TO get
her a divorce and got her husband to
pay them $3.50 on the promise that she
would not sue for alimony. The wo-
man said that she had no money to pay
Zeimer and Maizon and they agreed TO
allow her to work out her bill at the
rate of S. per day. She testified that
she appeared as witness in several
cases. She said she went to Zeimer's
Office and would rehearse the evidence
and then testify. Mrs. Herrick said
she did not meet the Tompkins woman
until two weeks ago.
Assistant District Attorney Unger
said the Tompkins woman was employ
ed by Zeimer and Maizon as detective
and then became a witness at the sug-
gestion of Zeimer, who said it would
be more profitable.
Mr.. Unger said that the grand jury
had heard evidence in the cases of Her
rick VS.. Herrick; Trumbetty VS.. Trum-
betty and Norton VS.. Norton.
1t was learned that indictments had
been found against Maizon, Zeimer and
Wilson.

NEW YORK, November 12.-With a
majority of one vote, and that the vote
of the moderator, the New York Pres
bytery to-day decided that the West
minister confession with its doctrine of
predestination was good enough to re-
main as the creed of the Presbyterian
Church. The number of votes cast was
142, of which 109 were recorded as votes
of clergymen and SO as votes of elders
of the church.
When the vote had been counted to-
day it was found that II favored re-
vision and II opposed it. The an
1founeemant that the vote was a tie
created a stir among those present. The
stated clerk, DR.. Erich, drew the atten-
ton of the assembly to the rule govern
ing the Presbytery which provide that
in case of a tie the moderator shall
cast the deciding vote. DR.. Wiley had
already voted in his individual capac-
ity and his vote had been recorded as
against revision. The MODERATOR then
cast his vote with the ayes, the anti
revisionists carrying the day.

The second meeting of the series held

Christian Association during the week of
prayer for young men was held last night
in the Association building. The same
lively interest which marked the begin

the earnest and kindly spirit which pre-

The Rev. Maloney pastor of the Zane

the evening, basing his remarks on the

was earnest and forceful, impressing upon
all those present the urgent duty of look

filled with the spirit of independence and
the desire to have a good time, do not

building up strong Christian character.
