Along the 33d parallel of latitude we
rarely have killing frost before the
first week of November though one
or two slight frosts usually occur in
October.
Freezing of the soil rarely occurs
before the latter part of November,
and oftener than not, freezing of the
soil deeper than an inch or two fails
to occur until late in December. The
last two winters were exceptionally
mild, and cold weather presented no
obstacle hardly to successful winter
gardening, but our absolute ignorance
of the future prevents us from TAX
ing advantage even of such occur
rences. 1t is not probable that the
coming winter will be as mild as the
past two, and we must necessarily
base our work upon past averages, let
the weather come as it will.

FARM, GARDEN
AND HOUSEHOLD
By S. A. COOK.

put in a jar or can that has been
heated. Saturate a rag in turpentine
and put in the bottom of can, close
the same tightly and set in the hot
sun or near the fire. The fumes of the
turpentine will destroy the embryo of
the weevil, which is very likely pre-
sent in the seed. 1t will be well to
take this preCautiOn and insure perfect
seed for next year
Do you wish a fall crop of beats?
If so, prepare the soil thoroughly and
as soon as a good rain occurs, and is
absorbed, draw shallow drills Il inch)
and SOW Early BassanO or Egyptian.
In the same drill, sow evenly, also,
some radish seed, which will promptly
come up and mark the rows. Cover
seed carefully with a rake and then
run a roller of some kind along the
rows. Just as soon as the plants APP
pear, cultivate and repeat the CultiVa-
ton once a week at least.
The average farmer. l fear, is not
likely to waste" much time on the
garden now, but we are disposed to
urge him to steal a little time from
the cotton and corn and hay and give
enough to the garden to insure a fair
part of what we have suggested. These
suggestions are based on an experience
of 20 years and are not the hap-haZard
remarks of mere reader, a theorist.
We know how great is the value of a
good garden to the farmers family,
and our philanthropy insists upon our
urging him to have one. September
is a busy month with the farmer, but
he can manage to give few days to
the garden, and he is not likely to re-
greet it afterwards.
The professional gardener finds the
work of September about as interest
ing and absorbing as that of March
or April. A very severe winter may
cause much of his work to come to
naught, but the anticipation of this
should not deter him from doing such
work as is usually successful.

CHINA A Conner,
SAYS GOODNOW
HE REVISITS MINNEAPOLIS
AFTER THREE YEARS ABB,
SENCE.
His Work as Consul General in shang-
hal Necessarily Brings Him Some
Opposition, He Says, but He Hasn't
Heard Officially of Any Charges.

Consul General John G. Goodnow
returned to Minneapolis this morning
after an absence of nearly three years,
but little changed by the burdens
which his work at Shanghai and in
China generally have imposed on him.
Most of his time during the morning
was occupied in shaking hands with
his old friends, and at noon he went
out to see his father, who is i'll, at
Excelsior. While very willing to talk
about commercial China and the new
treaty with that country, Mr.. Good
now was not disposed to discuss the
charges which are supposed to have
been brought against him.
Il know nothing about charges ex-
cept what I read in the Hearst pa
pers," he said. Nothing was said to
me of any charges in the department
at Washington. So long as I do
things there will be charges against
me. Until congress provides for an
appeal from the court in Shanghai the
only resource of the defeated attor-
ney in any case is to curse the court .
Much is gained for United States
trade with China in the treaty signed
Oct. 8, according to Mr.. Goodnow.
While the English treaty of Septem-
Der, 1902, abolished many of the tax
ing stations which, scattered along
Chinese highways, gave multiplied
seriously hampered any country in
importing goods, the treaty of Oct.
does away with all of them. This
should prove great stimulus to
trade, he thinks.
I'm our treaty, China agrees to
abolish all the taxing stations and to
make trade inside China as free as it
| is in the United States," he says. 1.-THE
| increase in the home market for their
! products must certainly tend to in
crease their prosperity, and also in
crease the market for our products
which can now. reach all parts OF
| China.
The steady and rapid development
of the mineral and other resources OF
| China means more work for the
Chinese and consequently more money
in wages, and therefore tends to in.
crease the Chinaman's ability to pur.
chase our goods. The other nations
have the same rights as we get under
our treaty, but the United States trade
is increasing faster than any other an6
these economic reforms tend to helr
us greatly.
There is acknowledged & in the
treaty the right of missionary societie:
or missionaries to buy lands and live
anywhere in the empire. That is ar
important advance, along, the line Of
religious work in China
Mr.. Goodnow expects to stay abou
a week in Minneapolis and to sail FOL
China early next month.

FIRST FIFTY-CENT BOTTLE FREE.
A constipated man is an easy VIC
tim for typhoid and malarial fevers.
One whose bowels are open and free
will not likely take either. The ty-
,phoid germs are harmless until they
get into the alimentary canal. Then
they do their dirt if allowed to re-
main. It wouldn't do to take a
physic, for that would irritate the in
itestines and make them all the more
fertile for the attack of the disease
germs.
But you must keep the bowels open,
and nothing will do it like Mull's
Grape Tonic 1t is tonic which
heals the irritation, makes it almost
impossible for the germs to get in
their deadly work and SO stimulates
the organs of the digestive parts that
they are enabled to voluntarily per-
form their functions. One dose will
prove it. but to fully convince you
