WANTED THE DEAD MANS SHARE
The circumstances IN connection with
the sudden death of Wesley Bailey,
colored, we're given 10 yesterdays
Gazette. 1t seems that the deceased
lived 10 house with another colored
individual whose name could not be
learned, and he had started for the
Mayors office for the purpose OF sp-
plying for a portion Of the produce dis.
pensed to the poor. When his partner
10 housekeeping heard of Bailey's death
he proceeded to the station house aud
asked Chief Webster to turn over to him
the dead mans portion of the city's
charity. The chief told the darkey
that Bailey had not been there, but the
uegro insisted that as be had
lived in the house with him it would
be proper to turn the produce over to
him. The chief fioally made the dsrkey
understand that nothing had been given
Bailey and was becoming impatient
when the negro asked what would be
the best hour for him to go to the sta
ton house and make formal application
for himself. The chief told him II 1t was
foggy he had better start about nine
o'clock in the morning, as he under
stood the fog had killed Bailey at that
hour and 1t might kill him, 80 the city
would then be rid of both.

GOATS CLEAR LAND.
Kansas Farmer Makes His Herd
of AngOraS Useful.

Two years ago r. G. Johnston, OF
Lawrence, Kan, had two hundred
acres of pasture land on his farm near
there. Brush and weeds had killed
out the blue grass. 1t was oVerrun
with buckbrush and sumac; to have
cleared it by chopping and grubolng
would have cost hundreds OF dollars.
Johnston purchased 1000 Angora goats
and turned them loose on his waste
Land. Today the POO acres of land
form one of the finest pastures IN
Douglas county. The clearing OF 1t
did not cost Johnston cent. In fact
he made money on the deal. The
goats did it.
There are great possibilities for
the Kansas farmer in the Angora
goat, said Johnston to a correspon-
dent. "If used alone for clean
ing brush, they are a good IN
vestment. Acres of yalueless land can
be transformed into pasture by heard
of Angoras in two or three years.
The fleece of the goats will pay the in
terest on the money inyesed in them
and enough besides to pay for keeping
them,"

VALUE OF The ELBERTA.
1T is KNOWN TO ONLY A FEW POSTED

From the Cincinnati Packer
''lf the public only knew the value
of the Georgia peach for preserving

me, for l have handled peaches all nv

advise all my trade to buy early
peaches and I am glad to learn that we
can expect a good crop this year"
Commenting upon this subject. Mr..
John Fugazzi, whose firm is heavy
receiver of the Georgia peach, states
that he is urging all his shippers to
adopt the same methods of advertising
the merits of their peaches as the CAL
ifornia Prune Growers Association
has done TO increase the sale of Cali
fornia prunes. At meeting of the
prune growers a large sum of money
vas voted to be used TO advertise the
merits of prune5 when properly cooked,
and fine literature and demonstrators
are now employed in a sYstematic man
ner to educate the public.
Mr.. Fugazzi is urging all growers to
place a small printed slip in each bas-
ket, telling of the good qualities Of the
Elbertas.
The Georgia peach is new to the PEG,
rle at large and from long habit the
housewife has waited until the north
ern peaches were on the market before
buying. There is no question about the
alberta being much superior to any o
the Michigan stock, either in size, col
or or taste. Mr.. Fugazzi's suggestion
is q good one and would enhance the
value of the Georgia peach very much
1t only requires one trial to convince
any housekeeper of its superiority, but
in order to break down old customs
system Of education is necessary. The
commission houses are fast learning
but the calls upon commission man
time are so many that very little time
is left for him TO try to educate the
grocer. If this suggestion was fol
lowed out every grocer would have
very strong argument in his hands
whenever he offered basket to pur
chaser.
The growers that inaugurated thi
movement will soon realize the value

coming to the prune growers by judi
cious advertising. A system of thi
character would bring much more
