Mr.. KOlner's Agricultural Report.

The twenty second annual report
| of the Commissioner OF Agriculture
of Virginia has been issued by Hon.
q. w. Koiner. 1t contains one hun
dred and sixty pages, and deals with
number OF subjects of interest to
the farmers of the State.
The following extract is taken from
the report in regard to the tonnage
tax law:
1.-The, tonnage tax on fertilizers,
though small, has enabled this de-
partment to greatly protect our far
'ners from fraud in the purchase of
fertilizers. The farmers in this State
pay over 100000 per annum for
fertilizers; such heavy expenditure
of money makes it very important
that the farmers should be carefully
protected from fraud, especially when
it can be done so easily in fertilizers
when not closely inspected and ana>
lyzed."
The paper goes to give descrip.
ton of the successful operations OF
the bill, and makes complimentary
reference to the work OF the fertili-
Ter inspectors of the several districts.
The commissioner deplores the
failure. on account of lack Of funds,
to have a statement OF the mineral
products of the State prepared year
", and says the people are losing
money by such failure.
As to the,pure food and oleomar-
garine. laws, passed by. the. last Legis
lature, the commissioner says they
are practically imperative because
he has no funds to enforce them.
Mr.. Koiner says the work OF the
department is constantly increasing
with the growing demand for infor-
nation regarding the soil and in
dustries OF the State.
The following is the financial state
ment of the Commissioner for the
fiscal year ending September 30, 1900:

Object to the Plan.

The residents in the vicinity of the
Mount Holly cemetery do not take kindly
to the plan of Superintendent Henry G.
Risdon to enlarge the cemetery by
addition of land that will put resting
place for the dead right at their back
doors The lot which Mr.. Risdon is now
converting into cemetery is on the south
side of Ridgway street, and is separated
only by small alley from the properties
of John B. Dayis. Miss Goldsmith and
others. The prospect of having a num-
Der of graves greet their vision whenever
they chance to look from a back window
or door is not very pleasant.
Mr., Risdon was demonstrated with
when he announced his intention of en-
larging the cemetery, but he decided he
had the right to go ahead and declined to
suspend operations. He put large force
of men at work and the Improvements
have been rapidly advanced.
A petition has been prepared and will
be presented to the township committee
Sulo CfCulHS dSh1AS tAoU DouJ W tAOOA 'OAS
and prevent the continuance of the work.
This action is based on a section of the
state law which provides that cemetery
association cannot enlarge its domains
without having first obtained permission
from the township authorities and the
local board of health. This law contains
clause which says sit is herein specially
provided" that all applications for en-
larging shall be accompanied with a map
of the proposed enlargement, copy of
which shall be filed in the office of the
state board of health. The penalty for
neglecting to comply with this statute is
fine not exceeding $500, or imprison
ment for term not exceeding six months,
or both in the discretion of the court.
Mr.. Risdon has not asked the sanction
of the township authorities, and the pc.
tition to be presented to them will re-
quest them; to act in the matter on the
violation of the law. Some time since
the cemetery was enlarged in the upper
portion. It is said the law was not con-
formed to then, and this will probably be
considered this evening.

Summer Sports.

Allen, of Bristol, pitched for Burling-
ton on Saturday.
Burlington made seven hits on Satur-
day. Barry and Faust were the only
men who did not make hit
Tommy Dunn played third base on Sat-
urday. If Tommy were put at shortstop
with Willie Fischman on third, what an
infeld Burlington would have.
The Burlington club has been changed
slightly Faust has been put il centre
field and Allen has been given trial as
pitcher Both men will probably be re-
tanned.
Burlington will be at home on Saturday.
Norristown will be the opposing team.
This will be a game worth looking at. 1t
is said Perkins will be on first base for
Norristown.
Saturday games of ball: Pastorious, %,
Olympia, of Delanco, 8; White Hill, II,
Florence, Il Germantown Academy, 4,
Bordentown Military Institute, 8; Bor-
dentewn Military Institute third, %, Tren-
ton A. c., g. Delanco, 5, Highland 4.
James F. Gregory, of Bordentown, will
graduate from Yale college next month.
He has won prize of $50 in one of the
contests this year, and won similar prize
in his sophomore year. He was captain
of the VARSITY" base ball team in 1898,
being the first Afro American to be elect
ed captain of base ball team in any of
the eastern colleges. A Springfield paper
speaks of the young man as fine base
ball player, saying he is strong and &C
curate thrower and fine batsman. All
of which is we'll known in this neighbor-
hood where the young man has given ex-
hibitions of his good playing.
The Burlington bose ball team went to
Morrisyille, Pa, on Saturday and came
home winner. A Trenton paper sums
it up thus: -Four slashing singles, wild
pitch, pass to first and two errors.
| That's all" Justice, who pitched for
Morrisville, had puzzled the visitors in
| the first two innings and had struck out
the first batsman in the third. Barclay
went up, however, and hit good one,
going to first then Stecher raped another
base hit, sending Barclay to second
Tommy Dunn was the next man up
Tommy is a good waiter and he held
firmly to his custom this time until the
right ball arrived. Then he hit it and
sent Barclay and Stecher home. Justice
became ratified and sent Barry down on q
pass. Dick Leonard drove beauty to
right field, Dunn and Barry scoring.
Faust struck out, Dobbins sent a grounder
to short, coming home on wild throw:
Smith was caught trying to steal second
and the disastrous inning was over.
| Morrisville made desperate effort to
catch up but Burlington won the game
5 to 2.

An Ingenious Treatment by which Drum
ards are being cured daily in
Spite of themselves.
No Noxious Doses. No Weakening of tn
Nerves. A Pleasant and Positive
Cure for the Liquor Habit.

It is now generally known and under
stood that Drunkenness is disease and
not weakness. A body filed with poi
son, and nerves completely shattered by Pc
riodical or constant use Of intoxicating liq-
uors, requires an antidote capable of neu
tralizing and eradicating this poison, and
destroying the craving for intoxicants.
Sufferers may now cure themselves at
home without publicity or loss of time
from business by this wonderful "HOME
GOLD CURE" which has been perfected
after many years of close study and treat
ment of inebriates. The faithful use ac
cording to directions of this wonderful
discovery is positively guaranteed to cure
the most obstinate case, no matter how
hard drinker Our records show the
marvellous transformation of thousands OF
Drunkards into sober, industrious and up
right men.

is specific for this disease only, and is so
skilfully devised and prepared that it is
thoroughly soluble and pleasant to the

ards have cured themselves with this
priceless remedy, and as many more have
been cured and made temperate men by
