Ginseng Farming at Waterbury.

A. E. Edwards leaves Waterbury
this week for the northern part Of New
York state, where he will hunt for GIN
seng plants. Mr.. Edwards considers
that ginseng root and gold are equiv
alent and has commenced raising gin
seng. He recently purchased slip of
land near his house, 60 by 10 feet,
which he calls his ginseng farm. This
land he has spaded and mixed with
woods soil and fertilizer in order to
have it as near as possible like the soil
in which the ginseng plant grows. He
has already set out $50 plants and ex-
poets by fall to have 400 plants grow
ing. He has room enough on his farm
to grow 1900 plants.

The anarchist weekly, Cronaca
Soversiva, at Barre, will probably not
be suppressed but it will be careful
what 1t says. F. Mariani the edi-
tor says: I'VE are all anarchists,
but we have no bombs. We are only
fighting for trade" So far - numbers
of the paper have been published, and
those that have been secured by and
translated to State Attorney Bailey
have contained nothing which would
cause him to take action of his own
initiation. AS far as can be learned,
the attack on the Cronoca has been
made owing to the spread of anarchy.
Mr.. Bailey has brought the matter to
the attention of United States District
Attorney James L. Martin of Brattle-
boro, and it may be possible that if
action is taken it will be brought in
the United States district court.
The assistant secretary of state has
received an offer from a New York
bureau to assist him in OBJ
news about the paper.

CATTLE COMMISSIONS WORK.
Under New Law 5000 Cattle Have
Been Tested Since Jan. I.

The number of cattle tested in YER
mont under the new law since January
1 approximates 5000. The number for
the first six months was 5000, which
Secretary v. 1. Spear of Randolph says
is the largest number ever tested in
the same period of time in Vermont.
The number of cattle found diseased
and condemned for the first six months
was about 600, or per cent, which is
about the same average as in the past.
The law appears to be meeting with
favor among the farmers owing to the
SO per cent indemnity clause, giving
the farmers in addition possession of
the hide. They now feel they are get
ting something for their cows, and are
more interested in keeping their herds
clean. They realize that a good look
ing COW, that Is affected, will bring a
better price from the state than a COW
that looks diseased from external ex-
and consequently they
want to get rid of it while they can get
a fair price.
The board is now testing in Derby a
herd of 1000 which furnishes milk for
a creamery at that place. The disease
is not confined to any particular Sec
ton, but is found scattered, a few cows
in each herd, although one herd in
Vernon was found to be in bad shape.
The temperance of the foot and
mouth disease in Massachusetts will
cause the board to be on the lookout in
this state

ferred her to the bishop of the diocese,

he also disclaimed any authority to
make the desired change, or any
change at all for that matter, as an
alteration of that kind could only be
made at the national convention of the
Episcopal church, which is held once
in three years. 1t is therefore proba-

TRUST FOR FARMERS
First Meeting for Organization in
South Dakota to Be Held in
.Elkton on Saturday.
SOUTH DAKOTA
American Society Of Equity of
North America" Is the Preten- .
tious Name Adopted: .:*
Spacial to Tho Journal.

Special to The Journal. Y
Sioux Falls, S. D., April S.-Whether or
not the farmers Of South Dakota can be
interested in the movement to form them
the farmers Of the United States: to con-
troll the prices of their products, will, it
is believed, be determined by meeting
to be held in Woodmen hall at Elkton to-
morrow evening. ::
March 10 was originally fixed as the time
muddy roads caused it to be postponed.
1t will give an ilkliItg of: how the farmers
Of the state look upon the plan to organ
lie them into what Would be a trust on
r more gigantic scale than any now in
existence, as it will be the first meeting
Of the kind to be held in South Dakota.
# it is a success, the organization OF
local branches, auxiliary to the. national
society, will be pushed in all parts Of the
state and ultimately to adjoining states.
The American Society Of Equity of
North America is the name by which the
national organization will be known. The
proposed organization at Elkton will be a
branch of this society. The call for the
! meeting is signed by L. A. Gr1nde, who
states that he is the organizer for Brook
! ings, Deuel. and Moody counties. It is De
lieyed that organizers have been assigned
| to other territory in the state, and that
q determined and systematic effort will be
made to form the farmers Of the state in
a powerful combine. 80. T.
1t is said the society is making rapid
progress in the east, where, more thar
800 organizers are at work among farm:
ers. In the appeal urging farmers to at
tend the Elkton meeting it is stated tina
they are the only large class doing bust
ness independently of each other, and tina
they should come to ar understanding ant
fight the trusts with their own weapons
by forming combination stronger thai
the opposition.

Said to Have Dropped $1o,-
., ooo-Three Arrests Made. r..
MILWAUKEE, WIS-Three we'll
dressed men, giving the names of John
Conner, j. ,McCarrand and William Hen
derson, were arraigned in Judge Neelen's
court to-day on the charge Of vagrancy
preferred by the police, and their cases
were adjourned until April 9. FL
Back of this charge one of a more seri-
Gus nature is being developed by the police
and the attorney of T. W. Saveland. who
alleges that the men swindled him out of
SIC 1000 on a fake race scheme. The pris-
oners came to Milwaukee, it is said, about
three months ago, and met Saveland, who
is engaged in the building material supply
business He became interested in a
smoothly outlined proposition in which he
was to clean up 10000 on a big race that
was to come off in Springfield. All that
was required was $4,000 to place in bets,
and then they would double the money as
a result of their inside information. Mr..
Saveland put the money up and is said to
have lost 1T.
An effort is to be made to fasten upon
the trio a charge of conspiracy and an at
tempt to defraud. Tt is asserted the men
recently swindled a business man OF
Greenberry, Ind, out of 100000 in a SINH
| lar manner.
