The Largest Strawberrlss.

The strawberry plantation at the Uni
versity fruit farm includes many varie-
ties offered to the trade for the first
time in 1900. The behavior of these
candidates for public favor illustrates
anew two two things-that the straw
berry varies greatly in different soils,
aud the expectations aroused by The
brilliant descriptions in the catalogues
are often not realized. The catalogue
writer deals only with superlStive. The
originator, to satisfy him, grows his
new variety under most favorable soil
and moisture conditions. The buyer
frequently sets the plants in much
poorer soil, and they may encounter
drouths, and the crop may thus be
disappointment. The plants at the sta
tion were set in sandy clay loan,
cleared of mixed forest growth few
months before. The strawberries were
thus the first crop from the land.
Among the largest varieties are Sam
son, Emperor, Empress, Morgan, Nick
Dinner, Woolverton. and Pride of Cum.
berland. OF these the best yielders are
Pride of Cumberland, Nick Dinner,
Sampson, and Morgan, in the order
named. Emperor and Empress are very
large, rough, dark red berries, not pro-
ductive enough in this soil for profit.
Nick Dinner is the most attractive of
these large berries, with Pride Of Cum
berland next. These are OF good quail
ity, large, aud heavy croppers, The
Pride may not prove firm enough for
SHIPMENT, but otherwise seems the bet.
ter of the two. Simpson is tiattish
oval in shape, borne on long stems,
making it fine berry for serving with
the stems. Morgan is roundish, rough
faced and dark colored. Woolverton is
the oldest OF the very large herries.

A Great Show.

Sparks railroad shows came to town
Sunday and pitched their tent on the
old Donaldson lot in John street.
They were greeted by good audi
ence yesterday and it is not giving
them undue praise to say that they
gave an exhibition that is first class in
every respect. It's cheap show and
a good show; a show that appeals to
the impecunious man and compels the
warmest encomiums from the gentle
men of larger incomes.
Sparks has the smallest baby ele-
phant performer in the world and its
intelligent actions delight the little
folks and excite the wonder and admi-
ration Of those Of taller statue.
The trapeze work and acrobatic feats
would be hard to excel, while the 9th
er features of the performance are all
deserving of special mention. Selma,

The Dog Law.

Owing to the confusion in the minds
of many as to the dog law, Mr.. Ba-
shaw, its author, has written the fol.
lowing to the public, which all should
road who have dogs:
"In view of the fact that the dog law,
passed by the present legislature takes
effect of the 17tn day of this mouth,
and the further fact that it has been so
misrepresonted by some, doubtlessly
Intentionally, and by others nninten-
tiOnally;
"Tae law first provides that il shall
be unlawful for person to permit his
dog to go upon the premises of another
or upon the public highway or street,
and makes a violation of this provision
a misdemeanor, punishable by a fine of
81 to $50.
1t exempts from this provision dogs
on hunt or chase, or on the way to
hunt or chase, and dogs guarding or
driving stock, and dog that being
moved from oneplace to another by his
owner, and it also exempts a dog upon
which its owner may have paid the
county trustee one dollar and take a
receipt, specially describing the dog
upon which the payment is made, this
payment to be good for one year only.
But it provides that the owner of Il dog
must pay all damages done by his dog,
while thus exempt, to relieve himself
of the misdemeanor.
"This law is, probably, not what
anyone would have made it. Some de-.
sire no law at all, others wish to extin,
guish the dogs, still another and the
greater number, wish to afford stock
raisers reasonable protection, and al
the same time respect the rights oi
those who wish to keep dogs, and it is
to be hoped this end has been attained,
aud that this fact will be realized by

Daughters of Eye.

Are women better than meu? This
is question that Il. s. Martin asks
and answers in an article entitled,
"Women," in McClure's Magazine for
June. No better, only different; or if
better, merely in negative fpshion.
They ktink less, smoke less and GER
tain of their emotions are less strong
corresponding emotions in men. " j.
men are what men make them, and
wuile men are still appreciably far
from perfection, why, women will be
still a little short of the angels they
are sometimes represented, and what is
worse, expected to be.

of types of the other inmates; bis es-
cape, with all the surprising accessor-
les; his rearrest and second escape by a
