Early Garden Vegetables.

There was time when the gardener
who had his produce ready for the
market earlier than his less enter
prising neighbor was well repaid for
his care and trouble by better prices
for the products. Then the early bird
caught the wealthy consumer. Now
the early worm in the Northern States
finds his profits If not himself picked
up by those in a Southern climate, who
can plant, grow and put on the mar
ket crop before the pillow can pene-
trate the frozen soil Of the Northern
States. We are inclined to think the
chance for profit to-day, for market
gardeners here, IS in growing such
crops as will not mature until South
ern produce no longer fills our mar
kcts, and perhaps In putting that in
cold storage that 1t may not be brought
out until there are indications that 1t
is much wanted by those who are will
ing to pay liberal prices for it. Let
early crops pass by, and strive to grow
crops of such quality as will suit even
those who have been using the earlier
products of the South, which are not
improved by long transportation

practically there are two questions TO
be considered thoroughly and an
swered:
First-If trusts are an outgroWth or
the tariff, why do they exist in free
trade England?
Second-Might not the abolition or
the protective tariff on certain prod
ucts only fix more firmly the controI
Of trusts by wiping out all possibility
Of competition?
The first phase was thoroughly dis
cussed during the past campaign, and
the consensus Of opinion was that the
trusts existed irrespective of protec-
ton. The other point is one that has
not been convincingly discussed or IN
vestfgated. Partial Investigations seem,
however, to indicate that the abolition
of the protective tariff in many indus
tries would completely crush out the
smaller manufacturer and thus render
more secure their control by the trusts.
Mr.. Carnegie, before his retirement
took the position that he had reached
the position where he himself no longer
needed protection, but made no reIer-
ence to the effect of the abolition OF
protection upon the other and smaller
manufacturers of iron and steel. The
American Wooden Company, a trust,
openly advocates the adjustment OF
the protective tariff, for the reason that

Raise the Calves.

Evidently there is a better chance for
profit now in growing young stock
either for the dairy or for beef than at
any time In the past ten years, and
perhaps in the last twenty years. But
we have the statistics for the past ten
years as sent out by the Agricultural
Department at Washington. In 1890
there were in the United States SO, S49,-
O24 cattle. In 1895, 34,364,216. Since
that time there has been a steady de-
crease of about two million head per
year, until in 1899 there were but 81
074,225. In 1890 there were $50 cattle
to each one thousand inhabitants, and
in 1899 only 373 to each thousand. AS
the number has decreased the price has
increased. The reports Of the Kansas
City stock yards show the following
prices for prime steers on Aug 10 for
three years: In 1897, $3.50 per hundred
pounds, 1898 same date 1925, and in
1899 $500. 1t is said that there are not
as many cattle in Texas now as in 1895
by more than 100000. Nor is the de-
cline In numbers In the United States
alone. Cuba was said to have about
eight hundred thousand cattle In 1895,
and at the close Of the war had but
twenty-five thousand. There must
have been great reduction in South
Africa since the Boer war began, and
Australia has been heavily drawn upon
to feed British troops. If five or ten
years ago farmers in New England or
any Of the United States could not
raise or fatten beef proftably to sell
at the price Western beef cattle cost
when brought here, it does not follow
that they cannot do both now. Six dol
lars and quarter per hundred pounds
in Brighton for the best grade of steers
to-day should leave margin for profit
to the feeder, If he feeds to the best
advantage, and If he grows his own
young stock, and most of his own food
for them, 1T seems as if nearly all was
profit, or at least pay for his labor. And

The Cranberry Fireworrp.

The larvae of Rhopobota vacciniana,
or cranberry fireworm, cause consider
able damage to the cranberry crop of
Massachusetts. The larvae of the first
brood seldom cause much injury, while.
those of the second brood are often ex-
ceedingly destructive. Where the cram
Derry boys can be flooded with water
at the proper season for destroying the
larvae, this method is very effective,
out in many cases it is impossible to
use water In this way. Experiments
We're tried with arsenate Of lead, which
was used as spray at the rate of g.
pounds to $50 gallons of water. The
first application was made in the early
part of June. The second brood Of
caterpillars appeared during the first
part Of July, and second applications
was made, the insecticide being used at
the rate of 1872 pounds to 100 gallons OF
water. Nearly all the larvae were de-
stroyed, and great saving in the cram
berry crop was the result Of this meth
cd. 1t was found that three men with
a good outfit could spray eight acres
of cranberry bog in ten hours.

finder being Leo S. Olschki, well

P!etro Massimo, in I47I and 1872. Soon
after it came from the press it was pur-

and It was in the archives of this family
that Olschki discovered it.
The edition Of which it forms a part
IS exceedingly rare, and very large sums
have been paid for imperfect copies Of
this Bible, Olschki paid 5000 lire ter
years ago for copy Of which two

When these Welsh makers monopo-

lis Sins Found Him Out.

Captain A. n. Freeland, of Sum-
ter, has won notorietyi if not glory.
After betraying the confidence of his
friends in Sumter, he stood not on
the order of his going, but skipped
by the light Of the moon" with the
sleuth hounds of the law close on
his heels. He finally escaped and
ever after, under the assumed name
of G. G. Nelson, became a fugative
from Justice. During his roaming
over the face of the earth his de-
serted and neglected wife sickened
and died. Srbse quently he married
under the. assumed name of Fos-
ter, a daughter Of a New York mil
lionaire against her fathers wishes.
But in the midst of his fancied hap
mess his sins found him out and an
investigation of his career developed
the belief that he has been five times
bigamist, and all the crimes in the
decalogue are laid at his door.
