The most marked variation in the
character of the cow pea is to be
found in the color of the seed, which
may be of any of the shades of black,
white, red, brown, yellow, gray, green
and purple, or they may be speckled
with two or more of these colors. In
shape they may be round, fat or broad
kidney shaped or f1attened at the ends.
The period of ripening required by
different varieties varies from sixty to
more than 200 days, and the same va
riety will ripen seed in less time from
late than from early planting and in
less time in dry seasons than in sea-
sons of an abundance of rain, while an
excess of nitrogen in the soil retards
both fruiting and maturity, increasing
the yield of vine and not infrequently
decreasing the yield of peas, as COM
pared with less fertile soils.

cuItlxat,en of Orchards.

Professors of the Vermont station
have been investigating the orchards
of Addison county in that state. In
part their report states:
The statistics of culture, however,
show more strikingly the condition OF
the apple growing business in Addi-
son county. Out of AZ representative
apple growers whose orchards were
personally examined by the agent of
the Experiment station, only eight, or
less than one-fifth, give any cultiva-
ton to the ground. The others grow
their apple trees in grass. and often
pasture or NOW the grass at that.
This is altogether wrong and unprot-
liable. 1t was once debatable Ques-
tion whether an apple orchard should
be cultivated or not; but it Is debata-
BILE no longer. The cash returns set
tied that. By way of comparison it
may be said that there is hardly an
orchard, large or small. in Grand Isle
county which is not now annually cul-
tivated with the plow and harrow.
Probably the greatest reform to be
made in Addison county apple grow
ing lies in the cultivation of the land.
Apples can be grown in sod, to be
sure; but it is absolutely certain that
in ninety-nine cases out of hundred,
better fruit can be grown and a great
er profit realized if the soil is properly
cultivated. Proper cultivation, accord
ing to the generally accepted doctrine
of the time. consists of plowing the
land early in the spring, and in lol-
lowing this with surface cultivation
with spring-tooth or cutaway harrow
every ten days till July first. BY that
time the wood is done growing and
cultivation should be stopped. Then
a cover crop of clover. eight pounds to
the acre, or of peas. two bushels to
the acre. or of buckwheat, one bushel
to the acre, should be sown. The cover
crop holds its place untouched till the
following spring, when it is turned
under at the annual plowing.

SETTLED
WAGE CONTROVERSY BETWEEN
RAILROADS AND TRAINMEN
AT CHICAGO
Settlement Reached On Basis Of Com
promise. Seventeen Railroads Sign
ing New Agrcements-Men To Re-
ceive Increase OF About Twelve
Per Cent-Trains On Timetables.

The wage controversy between the
railroads and the Brotherhood Railway
Trainmen. which for a time threaten
ed to tie up all the principal switching
terminals in Chicago, was amicably set
tied last night at a conference at Chi
cago betweecn the railroad managers
and the officials of the brotherhood.
The settlement was reached on
the basis of a compromise. Seventeen
OF the railroads signed the new agree.
ment and the Santa Fe, the other road
involved, will sign today. The men will
receive an increase of about u per
cent. At last nights meeting the rail
roads submitted a proposition Offering
an increase OF 3 cents an hUur TO help
ers and t cents to furemen. The pro
position was accepted by the men
The rates agreed upon are as fol,
lows: Day foremen, 81 cents per hour.
night foremcn, SO cents per hour; day
helpers, IS cents per hour; night help
crs. 80 cents per hour. These ate
are one-half per cent in excess of the
St. Paul-Minneapolis rate for each
class.
The EFFECT of the now scale will be far
reaching. According to the officers OF
the Brotherhood of Trainmcn the rate
will go into effect At all the large cen
tiers west OF Chicago, where committees
are now in session awaiting the out
come Of the Chicago trouble.
Representatives of the organization
left Chicago today for Kansas City,
Denver. Omaha. St. Louis and other
points to have the new scale officially
ratified by other roads and employees.
1t is asserted that already the men and
managers have agreed to abide by the
Chicago decision and as a consequence
no trouble is anticipated in making the
agreement universal for the entire dis
trict west of Chicago. The Chicago
scale goes into effect November - and
through the signed agreement with the
railroad managers it can not be modi-
fed without thirty days notice.

TOM HORN SENTENCED TO BE

Judge Scott In Laramie County Dis
trict Court Overrules Motion for
Passes Sentence-Prisoner Un-
moved During the Trying Ordeal.

Cheyenne, Wyo., Nov. 12.-(Special
to The Republican Judge Scott of
the Laramie county district court this
afternoon overruled a motion for a new
trial in the case of Tom Horn, found
guilty of murder in the first degree,
and sentenced him to be hanged on Fri
day, January 9, 1903, between the hours
of 9 O'Clock in the forenoon and 3
o'clock in the afternoon.
The prisoner remained unmoved dur
ing the delivering of the sentence of
the court, apparently the coolest mar
il the court room. Not a muscle be
trayed any emotion he might have felt.
The case will be taken to the SUI
preme court of the state. The stenog-
rapher has about finished a transcript
OF the evidence adduced at the trial,
and it is expected the appeal will be
perfected and the case taken up within
the next eight or ten days.
Horn was convicted of the killing of
Willie Nickel, a boy, near Iron noun
tain, last July, after one of the most
sensational and hotly contested trials
in the history of the state. He is said
to nave twice confessed the killing of
the boy and these confessions were us
ed against him. The motion for a new
trial was on the ground of the lack of
isolation Of the jury during the pro
gress of the hearing, when members
OF the jury and others made affidavit
that improper language had been used
in the hearing of the jury, showing the
temper of the people in the matter
