DRAMATIC EXPERIENCE OF

AN EXPERIENCE WITH ICEBERG.
Were at the Foot of Mount Terror When the

Mr.. G. e. BOrchgrevink, commander

nearly lost his life by an accident of a
nature so peculiar that it is probable
no other man could duplicate the ex-
perience. At the foot of Mount Terror
in February. 1900. he landed from his
ship with Captain Jensen and three
other men. Then. wishing to take a
picture of the shore. he sent his boat

GOOD PRICES IN FRUIT
FOR PENINSULA FARMERS
BERRIES BRING Splendid PROFITS TO
ALL PARTS OF THE PENINSULA.
Strawberries. Biackberrles, Raspberries and
Other Small Fruits Are Sold For Cash
With Great Market Demand.

There is no doubt that this has been
she most profitable season that berry
growers have had in years. Much
good has been done by the cash that
the berries have brought into this Sec
tion. James L. Beers, near Dover,
picked in four days from dozen rows,
20 yards long, 66O pints of red rasp-
berries which he shipped to Brooklyn
and received a check of $40. 16 for
them. He has picked several crates
since and they are still bearing.
K. L. Cowgirl of Bridgeville, states
that the crops are unprecented IN that
section. One party sold $14OO worth
of strawberries off of 81 acres. Several
realized S275 to $500 clear of picking.
Oliver Newton will clear near $4,000 in
small fruits and berries.
The prospective canteloupe crop
around Salisbury, Nd, is estimated
at $4,000. Many farmers in this
country are growing them successful
ly.
Government experts are about to
succeed in creating a strawber that
will bear all summer long, in fact it
will bear from early spring to late
autumn.
Mr.. E. G. Packard now has the won
derful Rathbun blackberry fruiting on
his farm near Dover. The fruit is of
large size, nearly all the berries meas
ure fully one inch or more in length
and when fully ripe are of high quail
ity and almost destitute of core. The
crop of fruit is immense. One marked
characteristic of the Rathbun is that it
does not throw up suckers like other
blackberries, but it is propogated by
layering the tips and by root cuttings,
yet the bushes grow upright and need
no stakes. The Rathbun, combining
so many good points, is long step in
advance and Is bound to become popu-

to separate us from the love of God,
which is Christ Jesus our Lord" no
