IRRIGATED CABBAGE.

CuEoeatfo, OF es6pnd" Fame, Now Adds
Cabbage to the List.
Greeley, Colo, famous for its pota-
toes, or "spuds,' has during the last
few years Developed into an Important
cabbage growing center, according to
Country Gentleman correspondent, In
whose account Of the industry occurs
the following:
Tramplanting Is done from the 4th to
the 3Oth Of June, according to variety.
The plants are then from six TO eight
out thirty inches apart and the plants
set IN the side Of the furrow fifteen to
eighteen inches apart Local growers
still prefer to set the plants by hand
with dibbae, though machines are
made for the purpose. AS soon as
row is set the water is allowed to run
through the furroW, watering the
plants and fTTning the earth around
the ruJts. A week Later the field is
gone oEer again, filing In all missing
plants and watering second tl1na. AS
soon as the ground is dry enough It is
cultivated twice In roW and hUed 1r
rigation is repeated every ten days un-
less it rains, followed in each case by
cuittvetlodl until the plants get too
large. which is generally from Aug. 10
to 20. After this irrigation alone is
continued as necessary.
One grower Increases his yield great
ly ~ irrigatfng at times with liquid
manure. On the line Of the lateral
above the cabbage field he throws up
dixie or small earth embanRment
around a space into which manure is
drawn. The water In the lateral is run
into this fnc1osuTe and thence through
the field. The manure should be stirred
up with fork occasionally while the
water is running over It. In the inter-
walls between irrigadinns, when the wa
ten is shut off, feTz1enta tfon proceeds
very rapidly, and the vaFue Of the ma
nure is greatly increased. By this
method 100000 pounds have been
raised Oh patch measuring 4.55 acres,
or at the rate Of $1,000 pounds per
acre. The variety grown was Ne Plus
Ultra.
application Of liquid manure by irriga
ton might be introduced at the east
with great advantage. There the crop
is grown to great extent on kowland
near which there is often sUfR stream
from which a ditch could be taEen out
at little cost. With the irrigation ditch
once dug cabbage and other vegetable
could be watered when transplanted
by the western method at an instgnii
cant cost Of time and labor, the plants
would suffer less setback, the gardener
would not be taking chances on the
weather, and he would lose fewer
plants in transplanting- Besides, the
yield could he enormously increase at
almost no expense by the application
Of liquid manure by irrigation.

State From Railways.
Des Moines, Feb. 20.-The senate
subcommittee appointed to draft re-
form measure covering railroad tax
alton in Iowa completed its work yes
terday and submitted its report to the
senate ways and means committee as
whole. The report embodies a short
statement by the committee and the
draft of the two bills. one supplement-
al to the other, embodying changes in
the present method of railroad taxa
ton in the state.
The bills as drawn by the sub-com-
mittee are not sensational in character,
although they cover the subject in a
way which is believed will bring about
not only a more equitable system OF
taxation of the railroads in Iowa. but
will also increase the revenue from
this source materially.
The senate subcommittee consists
of Senators Junkin. Healy. Lewis and
Porter. Much interest centered about
this report and information pertain
ing thereto was eagerly sought by the
members as soon as it was known
that it had been made public.
The main bill embodies the stocks
and bonds test of valuations. allowing
discretion to be exercised by the ex-
ecutive council such as the committee
believes is necessary in order to in
sure the constitutionality of the mea-
sure. The other bill provides for the
appointment of a competent statisti'
clan by the governor to make an in
vestigation and report certain data
including the cost, present value and
other information respecting proper
ties assessed by the executive coun-
Gil and especially pertaining to rail
road properties in the state. The first
report from this officer is to be made
by November 1, 1908. and others at

Des Moines, Feb. 19.--Such charac-
tiers as Emma Goldman and other an.

of the United States are made Grim
inals by an act which passed the

murder be committed or not. be i'm
prisoned in the penitentiary not more

that the bill was directed at anarchists
and that it would make it felony
for such people to issue public or

cUeA's PARTIAL VICTORY.
House Committee Decides on Tarln
Concessions.

Washington, Feb. 24.-The republi-'
can members of the ways and means
committee, who have been considering
the question of concessions to Cuba at
several meetings during the week.
have finally reached an agreement
which is considered victory for those
who have favored tariff concessions to
that island. The action taken was the
adoption of the following resolution:
Resolved, That 1t is the sense Of
the majority members of this commit
tee Subject to the approval Of the re-
publican members of the house In
caucus assembled, to be held as prac-
ticable), that the committee report q
bill in substance authorizing the presi-
dent to negotiate a reciprocity treaty
with the Cuban republic when estab-
lished. providing for the entry Of our
products into Cuba upon such terms
as shall be deemed by him to be ad-
vantageous to US; provided, however,
that such treaty shall secure for our
products going into Cuba duties less
than those allowed to other countries
substantially equivalent to the couces-
sions made by US; that the considera-
ton upon our part for such treaty
shall be concession of 20 per cent
of our tariff duties upon imports. the
products of Cuba. upon this condition:
That Cuba first shall enact our immi-
grafton laws
By the terms Of this resolution the
proposition agreed on by the republi-
can members of the committee will be
submitted to a republican caucus.
This action is practically the propo-
sition submitted a few days ago by
Representative Long Of Kansas, ex-
cept that the amount of the concession
is cut In half, and the condition pre-
cedent-that Cuba enact our immigra-
ton laws-is added. The action by the
committee was preceded by confer.
ence at the white house between the
president and Representative Grosve-
nor of Ohio. Russell of Connecticut
and Dalzell of Pennsylvania. all OF
whom have heretofore stood out
against any form of reciprocity provis-
ions. The action of the republican
members was unanimous.
