The Wall Street Journal says:
 General Manager Garrett of the Queen and Crescent says: There is the biggest cotton crop on the line of our road that has been reported for three years. Last year the corn crop was podr, but this year it is excellent. Every one has money, and if there are hard times coming it will not be felt in our territory for at least one year.
 ''The south is branching out. Everybody has plenty of work and there is a big movement of pig iron over our line. What l consider a significant fact is that the Erie Railroad company recently purchased 1000 tons of steel rails from the Tennes- see Coal and Iron company.

MAYOR SMITHS CAMP
UTTERLY DISMANTLED
Rents 1t to a Parson and His Goods Are
Badly Scattered.

Mayor Smith has been made the victim
OF misplaced confidence.
Last week some one got into his camp
at Coon Lake and yesterday he spent
nearly the entire afternoon looking over
Minneapolis for the scattered parapherna-
liza.
''I saw my ice chest he said yester-
day afternoon as he was boarding car
for the Mill City, 'and think can lay
my hands on the balance Of the stuff Cost
me about $50. Put my dishes in an old
hen coop and left the cooking stove out in
the rain. Oh, 1 certainly am easy"
Mayor Smiths hunting troubles date
back to the early part of the summer
when he sold his hunting lodge on the
shores of Coon lake to a nearby farmer
1t was full Of hunting and camping para
phernalia and his honor stipulated that
before it was rented he should be In
formed in time so that he could remove
the stuff
preacher happened to be the first
tenant, and the stipulation was not OBJ
served. The good women of his parish
wanted to give him a reception and they,
accordingly prepared a house warming,
the preliminarieS Of which were good
scrubbing for the hunting lodge and the
removal of its contents. How they did
it his honor tells best.
"The dishes and my slzillets they put in
an old corn crib which was used for
chicken coop and you can imagine their
condition" said the mayor ruefully. II
got all of the stove back but the lids
AS. for the chairs, my table, my iron
bed and the ice chest, I am looking for
them yet. The stuff was not stolen it
was just misplaced. but tho whole affair
is mighty inconvenient. / am afraid
wasn't tidy enough for the parish la
dies"
Mayor Smith devoted the better part
of yesterday afternoon searching for the
stuff, and he was positive that from the
fact that his ice chest was gracing a back
porch of a residence in MINNEAPOLIS
the balance Of the goods would be found
there, too.

realized the ACCESSIBILITY of winning a
victory over the British, which would
tend to hearten his men and raise the
tagging spirits of the nation. Accord
ingly, when the British, under Sir Hen
nv Clinton, evacuated Philadelphia, on
June 10, and marched toward Bruins
wick, N. J., with view of embark
ing on Raritan river, Washington
broke camp at Valley Forge, sent for
ward some light troops to harass the
enemy, and then with the main body
started in pursuit. AT Allentown Clin-
ton suddenly turned to the right by q
road leading through Freehold to San
dy Hook. The evening of June 81
found the main body of the British en-
camped at Monmouth Courthouse, in
the town of Freehold, while the Amer
lean advance, under Maj. Gen. Lee,
was 1--WE miles away.
Early on the 28th Lee engaged the
rear division Of the enemy, his orders
being to hold 1t In check until the
main body should come up. The Amer
leans were successful at first, but the
charges of the British regulars soon
threw them into confusion and they
began q disorderly retreat In which
their commander participated. Wash
ington. coming up with the main body
of troops, beheld Lees flying men. The
face Of the American commander-in-

chief flushed angrily, as he spurred
his horse through the demoralized
troops to Lees side. Sternly he re-
buked the commander, and then, rally
ing the fugitives, hastenel back to
bring up the main body.
Washington succeeded In placing his
troops on an eminence in a favorable
position and soon was turning defeat
into victory. The British made an in
effectual attempt to turR the Ameri-
can left wing and then turned their at
tention to the right, where they were
also repulsed.
All through the day the fight went
on. The drill which the American
troops received from Baron Steuhen at
Valley Forge stood them in good stead
They fought like veterans, and the
day was won.
There was one other who shared the
honors of the battle of Monmouth with
Washington. and that was brave Molly
Pitcher. Her husband, an artillery

ia conducted on model plans. A large
boarding house accommodates AV0
men, and Congressman Todd has
summer house near by. There are ice
houses, farm buildings, warehouses;
and a library, and clubroom tor tne
workmen. There is a barn whlch Is
said to be the largest in the world
This barn solved one Of the earnest
problems, and the most embarrassing
which confronted Mr.. Todd when ne
set out to conquer the swamp ana re-
claim it from the wastes and make II
useful. This was the question as 10
what was to be done with the nun
dreds and later thousands OF tons OF
mint hay after the oil had been ex-
tracted from it. He determined upon
an experiment. He purchased 1'ooo
acres of farm land in the northern
part Of Michigan and put out TO a
pasture herd of 500 shorthorn cat
tie. In the fall the herd was brought
south and housed for the winter In the
big barn.
The experiment proved successful
as the peppermint plants are excel
lent fodder when dried. Besides there
was the advantage Of giving employ
ment to the workmen in the winter
months.
The barn is built on unique plans.
It is in the shape of star, there be-
ing half a dozen arms radiating from
a six-sided rotunda in the center.
Mint grows from roots similar to
hops and spreads by runners. The
entire ground Is soon covered after
the roots are planted, and as soil
which Is suitable for mint Is also good
for weeds a large crop Of these must
be tirelessly extracted. After the sea-
son Is we'll advanced and cultivation
is no longer practicable the wedding
is done by hand and the amount OF
labor required is very large.
At harvest time the mint is combed
and carded in one direction by
means of a powerful two-horse rake
1t Is full Of snags and crinkles, like
a head Of tousled hair. Mowers are
then run in the opposite direction and
the plants cut.
The best yield, in quality, comes
from the first years crop, as the oil
is made from the leaves and the ten
der ends Of the stems, but the second
and third years crops are said to be
the most profitable, as they do not
need replanting, nor so much wedding
Each fall the ground Is plowed sly
inches deep and the crop comes with

MINT CROP OF MICHIGAN.

Cam pania Farm of Congressman Todd
the Largest Field In the World.
There Is plot Of ground In southern
Michigan which probably not many
generations ago formed part Of the
lake of that name. In course of time
it became fresh-water swamp, as
valueless piece Of property as might
be found. To-day 1t is a prosperous,
fertile farm, upon which one OF the
most interesting industries of the
world is conducted ON a large scale.
Ditch digging reclaimed this swami.
says the New York Times, the bitches
serving first as drains, later for irri-
eating purposes.
Campania farm, as it has been nam
ed by its owner, Congressman Todd.
is about two miles wide and is as
fiat as a duck pond. There are no
fences around it, but the bitches are
laid with. mathematical precision. At
the exact center Of the farm are the
buildings, from which the. whole Is
operated and In which live as MANY
people as are found in many villages.
AS the visitor draws near the farm
he sees stretching before him what
appears to be lake of green, crinkly
leaves. which at nightfail is covered
with a thick yapor. He becomes con-
scious of smarting in the eyes and
a tingling sensation in the nose. Mem
cries of the big peppermint drops and
sticks of striped candy of childhood
pass through his mind. s
He is. in fact entering the largest
mint field in the world. where is
/ raised most of the peppermint that is
used in the manufacture of oil for

position In the American line. Time
and again the men at the guns were
moved down, but the survivors contin-
ued the fight with vigor. Molly Pitcher
had been carrying water from near
by spring for the gunners to wet the
sponges when they swabbed out the
cannon. While returning from one of
these excursions to the spring Molly
saw her husband fall. There was no
one to take his place at the gun. With
out a moments hesitation the brave
woman set down the water she was
carrying, seized the hammer and took
her husbands place. The army cheered
her wildly as she discharged the can
non again and again. Washington per-
sonally complimented her and appoint
ed her captain in the American army.
