At FAIR GROUNDS.
Small Crowd Present But the Races
Were Interesting.
ALL EVENTS WERE LIVELY.

The cold, piercing winds which ac-
companied the feast day on its annual
tour had decided effect on the lovers
of race horse sport, and consequently
the races at the fair grounds yesterday
failed to draw the crowd that was ex-
pected to turn out However, the cold,
crisp wind did not chill the ardor Of
the horsemen and lovers Of the sport,
and the program was carried out,
which afforded an exciting anu inter
esting afternoon for those present.
The green race, 800 minute trot,
was won by McGinty, owned by r. III.
Greenleaf. McGinty raced against Will
liam T., owned by w. l.. Trimble, and
won the second and third heats in
lis.
The 2;4O trot was won b. Lady Mar.
garet, owned by Josep,., Barnett in two
straight heats. THE go in both heats.
Boone owped by Emil Mann, was a
close Contestant in this race.
Primrose carried off the first heat in
the free-for-all in 1909. The second
heat was won by Shecam in 1:1O. Both
meats in this race were intensely ex-
citing, the winning horse going under
the wire by nose.
Following the races the amusing
features of the program were carried
out with all kinds of fun. The creased
pole was slick event. About twelve
boys attempted to overcome the sliding
quality of grease, but Charles Ben
jamin was the first to overcome the
slick article. He received a fine
sweater, given by Mike Mandell for
his successful climb. Harry Schaffer
carried of second prize.
Emil Mann did better than his horse
in the events of the day, and won first
in the hobble race. There were eight
entries, and the race being for kids,
Emil handed the sweater he won over
to Newlander, one of the fast hobblers.
Otto Mann was a close second. The
afternoon of sports was greatly en-
joyed by those whose sporting blood is
never daunted by the weather man.

small buggy, came dashing down Sec
ond street at a terrific speed and
made a grand spectacular turn into
Trimble's barn and passed through the
long passage without stacking their
speed until they turned in the passage
at the far end of the barn. When the
horses were stopped the perspiration
wah dripping from them in amaz.
ingly large quantities, and when they
were unhitched after standing a few
minutes they we're so stiff they could
hardly walk.
This morning a couple of young men
with uowncast faces came riding into
the city on an old wagon loaded with
wood. Their entrance was exceeding
ly slow, and did not possess the ex-
citing qualities of the entrance of the
horses. They finally got up enough
courage to creep around to the barn
and then were told of the early and un
suspected arrival of the horses. Then
their sad story was related. They had
walked nearly fourteen miles and long
miles at that. It seems as IL the
horses became frightened while the
young men were doing some exploring
and breaking the hitchstrap, made q
fourteen-mile run for the city.

NEW CUBAN RAILROAD.
New Line Of Road Completed Through
the Island.

Washington, Nov. 2S.-A dispatch
from Havana says the Cuba Central
railroad from Havana to Santiago, will
be opened for traffic today. The trip
from Santiago TO Havana, about 500
miles, will be made in about twenty
two hours, whereas three days are re-
uuired by Steamship, the only means
of travel heretofore.
With the opening of this new rail
road Cuba is expected to enter upon
a new era-a career of industrial de-
velopment and activity which is ex-
pected to result in the betterment OF
the inhabitants, commercial prosper
ity and the improvement of internal
affairs. The main line of the road is
of standard guage and it's bridges are
of steel and masonry. The equipment
generally is similar to that of the best
American roads, it being intended to
run through sleeping cars between Ha-
vana and Santiago. The line runs
through the heart of the eastern part
Of the island, where there is much un-
developed mineral wealth in the noun
famous districts, but want of capital
has hitherto prevented its profitable
production. Copper mines are of great
extent and rich, and water power is
plentiful. Along the route of the main
line are to be found great areas of
land of the richest description. we'll
scattered and suitable for raising sug-
ar cane, tobacco. corn, cotton. coffee
and all fruits OF the tropical and sub
tropical regions, such as yams, man.

Cabinet Meeting.

Washington, Nov. 2S.--Neither Sec
retary Hay nor Secretary Root was
present at the cabinet meeting today
and the session was devoted to minor
matters. Secretary Wilson discussed
the measures that he had taken to sup
press the epidemic of foot and mouth
disease which had appeared among
live stock in New England. From such
information as Secretary Wilson has
obtained he believes that the disease
has existed in that section for some
time, but has been concealed. Every
effort will be made to stamp 1t out.

OUR GIRLS DEFEATED.
High School Basket Ball Team Lose to
Agricultural College Girls.


Defeated, and yet not disgraced, was
the young ladies basket ball team of
the high school, in the basket ball bat
tie with the Agriculture and Mechanic
Arts college team at Mesilla Park last
night, resulting in a score of IA to 4.
The young ladies from the high
school held their adversaries down in
the first half in manner that called
forth great admiration. AS soon as
the ball was put into play it was seen
that the team work of the college team
had received close attention and that
the high school girls were doing good
work, but were weak on several essen
tial points in team work, although
their individual playing was fine, and
they were heartily cheered by the
large crowd of enthusiastic lovers of
college sport. Miss Rose Huntzinger
threw a goal from field, which was the
prettiest goal made during the game.
The first half ended with a score of 6
to 4.
The fast work began in the second.
and then the weak points of the high
school team came into evidence. The
college team made two baskets. scor-
ing 8 points, which made the score IA

FRUIT.
PEOPLE ARE TURNING MORE TO Fruit
AS FOOD SUPPLY.

Fruit is the only food of man that
comes to us direct from the soil, through
tree or plant, ready finished as whole
some, nutritious food; while nearly all
other food products have to go through
a killing, milling, cooking, or manipula-
ton process of some sort, requiring ex-
pert labor and lot of hard, disagreeable
work in every home kitchen. Little
wonder is it that people are turning
more and more to fruit as a large part OF
their food supply, and that landowners
who are awake to the situation are
coming money by supplying the needs
of fruit eaters, while owners OF small
plots of land are more and more en-
couraged to plant fruits for their own
home needs. / do not like to boast OF
the achievements of my lifetime; yet, as
old friends and customers know that
starting in boyhood with a quarter OF an
acre of strawberries and steadily push
inc home the fruit eating idea to all
came in contact with, / have seen de
mands for my fruit continually increase,
till now, with nearly $500 acres under
cultivation, | am no better able to sup
ply all demands than was at the start
SO many more people want fruit now
and want more of it and better. Prices
rule lower than in the early days; yet
better knowledge of varieties, create
skill in culture, make the percentage o
profit as great as ever to the commercial
planter, while the one who plants TO
family supply now has such super
range of varieties that it is as easy nov
to have the choicest fruit in great va
riety, all the year round, as it was year
ago lust to have few apples and notf
ing more.-New England Farmer.
Oxford Democrat. [volume] (Paris, Me.) 1833-1933, 1902-04-22
poos;. st;,, go;ng HIGHER and higher

Beef is still going higher and higher,
and dealers say that no reduction in price
can be expected until there is another
good corn crop. Corn, which Few
wears ago was worth 10 cents bushel
in Kansas, now sells for 20 cents and Is
scarce at that. Western cattle, wintered
ON sage brush and straw, are in about as
good shape for beef as the lean kline OF
Pharoah's dream; and those which
are being fattened on the plains with
cottonseed meal, plan which is being
tried by some owners, will almost fetch
their weight in gold. Pork is also very
high and it is probable that lamb and
mutton will join the rise. The advance
in beef within a few years amounts t
SIS or $40 on every good carcass. Will
a good crop of hay, and the silo to fal
back upon, cattle raising ought to be
profitable business for the Main'
farmers this season.-Maine Farmer.

ALFALFA IN VERMONT.

Repeated trials in growing alfalfa have
been made by the Vermont experiment
station and with varying results. In
1887 and 1888 seed was sown under its
direction by about 40 farmers in different
sections of the state with a uniform
record of failure. Since then several
sowings have been made on the station
grounds. Some of the plants have been
choked out by weeds, others have been
winter-killed entirely or in spots or have
run out from other causes. Two good
stands have been attained, one of which
has just come through its third winter
in fair shape. A few small, but good
pieces, have also been grown at various
places in the Champlain valley.
1t is the opinion of the experiment
station officials that success or failure
with alfalfa in New England depends
first on the man and second on the soil.
A man to grow this crop successfully
must thoroughly understand it and be
prepared to put time, labor, money,
thought and enthusiasm into it, without
much prospect of return for year. The
land must be we'll drained and in good
state of tilth and fertility. 1t must be
prepared as carefully as for onions and
all weeds and weed seeds must be killed
for alfalfa is weak plant at the start
and easily choked out. A good prepare
ton of a weedy piece of ground is t(
give it bare summer fallow preceding
the spring of sowing.
Alfalfa cannot be grown satisfactorily
with nurse crop or in mixtures will
grass seeds. 1t must be sOwn alone
early in spring. When once established
it should be cut at least three times ;
year, the first cutting being in jun
some time before the usual haying. l
the cutting is delayed, the quality sui
fers and the plants life is greatly short
ened. On this account it must be grow
by itself unmixed with other grasses
The size and quality of the crops obtain
ed by the Vermont station have no
been greater than those of red clover

AN ARBoR DAY ADDRESS.

State Superintendent of Schools Car
rington of Missouri, in an address re-
garding Arbor Day, says: "To set out
trees and leave them to take care of
themselves will accomplish little good.
The front yard should be a grass lawn,
the margin set in hardy shrubbery and
only few trees. These should be so
located as not to obstruct the front view
or spoil the back yard for playground.
The effort now being put forth in the
city of st. Louis along this line is to be
commended. In view of the Worlds
Fair, to be held soon within our borders
when strangers from all quarters of the
globe will be our guests, Missouri teach
ers, woman's clubs, business men and al
lovers of the beautiful in nature should
unite in inaugurating a similar move
ment in city, town and school districts
The state superintendent of public
schools takes this means of urging sucl
a movement and of offering to any com
munity help by way of more definite in
formation as to what has been done AM
what may be done to make, not only tn
schools and school grounds, but tn
homes of the children more attractive
and, at the same time, cultivate tn
aesthetic taste of the children and trail
them to habits of industry"
