Berry Culture.
The best growers of bush fruits
make it practice to carry their fields
no longer than six to nine years. At
ter this time they are plowed up, new
fields being set in the meantime TO
keep the crop going. There are va
rious reasons why bed of raspber-
ries or blackberries deteriorates after
q certain number Of years. The plants
become weakened with age, they are
attacked by insects or disease and
they do not produce young rruiting
wood with anything like their prls-
tine vigor. Further than that, the
soil becomes exhausted more or less
Of elements of fertility. Rotation Of
crops is favorable to success in all
lines of agriculture, and not less so
with fruit crops than with others.
We therefore suggest, as being very
strongly indicated by the symptoms,
that it will be best for you to set a
new field Of blackberrieS at once, and
to plOw up the old one as soon as the
new one comes into bearing In set
ting new field, we would insist upon
fresh plants from some good nursery
or from some grower who makes a
speciality Of growing plants 1t is very
poor practice and poor economy to
take plants from an old field. In case
the old field is infected with disease.
1t is fatal mistake.-Country Gen

Ensi1ace Carriers.

The carrier which conveys the ensil-
age to the silo is great consumer of
power, and for very tall silo must
be driven faster than is good for the
running gear. For that reason and
also for convenience in feeding, it is
better to have the top not more than
20 feet above the ground. For small
silos feet below ground and Is to 20
feet above is quite satisfactory and
convenient.

about SIC per acre to it's value, after
paying for the extra work, as com

who raises an acre or two for feeding
would have a silo, which will also
come handy to save second crop of

Cabbages make one Of the best SUD-
plies for early winter. The soft heads
are useless for market, but make good
hen food. Kale, rape, beet leaves are
good, also beets. Sweet apples are
suitable, but sour ones in too large
quantities have a bad effect. Second

with dough is the best winter substi-
tute.

Summer Cars Collide.

Miss Gene Griffith, of Fucker county
who is visiting friends and relatives in
this city, WAS thrown frosn one of the
summer cars ut the Onion Land park ter
minal Saturday afternoon from the force
of collision with another summer car.
She was thrown from the car to the
ground by the side of the track. Far
ther out from the track there is small
run which winds its way from the hol-
low above the track ending down the
hill almost parallel with the track. The
bottom of the run is several feet below
the level of the track. The force OF her
fall threw her from the ground at the
side of the track to the bottom of the
run Strung along in the run were large
rolls of barbed wire, which had been
unloaded there a short time before. Miss
Griffith fell upon one of these rolls of
wire, and sustained painful injuries to
the limbs and hip.

to play any further. They refused to
abide by u decision given by the base

The score stood as follows:

There were about 300 people present
to witness the game. There was to have
been a game between the same teams
in the forenoon. but on account of No.
3 being late, as usual, the visitors did
not arrive in time to play a game.
The lineup OF both teams was unus-
ually strong and a hotly contested game
was played. There was the same old
trouble with umpires, however. The UNI
pire question seems to be a "jonall- with
the Y. VI. c. A. team. The last game
they played there we're no less than nine
umpircs engaged to judge the game. They
had three or four this time, and at one
tine had two or three men hanging
around the field and ON the running lines
as "base umpires." This not only dis
turbed the players, but finally resulted
in dispute with one of the umpires and
the game was stopped.
Some very good plays were made by
I-a,bcnstein. Smith, Pfhaler, Brown and
Steptoe of the home team. Young Ja-
cobs batted strongly and let in couple
of runs. Alccune pitched good game
and Pfhalcr caught every ball. The home
team had good line-up.
One of the large supporting girders
in the grand stand cracked and split
during the game, and caused a small
panic for a while. A copper examined
the stand and reported it unsafe. Sec
rotary Riddle advised those in the grand
stand to move u the bleachers, which
some of them did Other than this, the
game proved without incident.
