Pithiness in Celery

Pithiness in celery results largely
from poor seed. French-grown seed
is reported to be very much superior
to American-grown seed. The Mary
land station has made some extensive
Investigations along this line and
among other things says: Taking the
various points into consideration, the
experiments plainly show the supe-
riority of French grown seed over
the American grown. That the diff
ference is not due to the character
of the soil or to climatic conditions is
apparent from the fact that the celery
stalks from the French seed were en-
tirely different, though they were
grown under the same conditions of
soil and climate and were given the
same kind of care. The difference
must have come from the seed. We
cannot accept as an established fact
that the highest quality of celery seed
cannot be grown in America. But
we can believe that the seed Is not
carefully selected and grown. Pithy
stalks should never be used for seed,
and seed plantations should be care
fully watched and rogued whenever a
strange plant appears. That much of
the European-grown seed is superior
to American-grown seed cannot be
disputed The superiority is due al
together to their careful selection of
seed stock and the subsequent atten-
ton paid to the plant to keep it up to
the set standard. There can be no
doubt that if the American celery
seed growers were as careful in their
work as the French growers are their
seed would in all probability be as
good. Cheap seed is dear at any
price. This is especially true when
the profit of a whole seasons work is
dependent upon it.

Eastern Trees en- Western Farms.

Eastern Trees en- Western Farms.
Farmers in the west that want to
plant trees either for fruit or orna-
ment should secure them of western
growers ard make sure also that the
western growers have not purchased
them in the East A tree grown in
the eastern or middle states is not
adapted to the West, as common
thing and this has caused much dis
couragement in the planting of trees.
The tree peddler will need to be
watched. He has the reputation of
hiring himself to a western nursery
and then. on the sly, sending orders
for eastern trees, from which he can
sometimes make a better profit than
from trees grown in the West The
buyer of trees, if he have not com
plete confidence in the tree pedd1er,
will find it to his advantage to Incl
dentally write to the western nurs-
cry from which his trees are reputed
70 come and tell them that he has a
lot of trees from them. He can give
them this information by asking some
unimportant question, as how deep
should the trees from your nursery
be planted ?" He can do this without
offending the tree agent or letting him
know that he is getting check" on
his movements

the contract price was only $4,000, the
actual loss OF the company being $1oo,OOo.
At the request Of the builders OF torpedo
boats and destroyers, board, OF "h which
Rear-Admiral Ramsay was president, was
appointed to visit TIE yards, examine tue
books. and report as to the actual cost OK
the construction OF the average torpeoo
boat and destroyer. This board reported
that the average cost OF torpedo ooae
was $4,000 each, and OF DESTROYER
$4,000 each. The report was forwarded
to Congress by Hon. John D. Long, theh
Secretary of the Navy. and the secretary
also recommended that Congress provide
for the payment of the contractors. as the
loss had resulted almost wholly from
causes beyond their control. Secretary
Moody has also endorsed the BILL
The sum fixed by Admiral Ramsay's
board as the actual cost OF the torpedo
boats and destroyers Is understood to be
far less than the actual cost OF those
built by the Trigg Company. and that Il
the government should pay for the boats
a sum regarded as right and proper the
Trigg Company woull still sustain an
actual loss of $1sS,0oO. The entire trouble
seems to have been that the contractors
who bid on the vessels We're almost en-
tirely without data upon which to base
their estimates OF cost. This is true Of
all the shipbuilding companies which UNI
dertook the construction OF the vessels.
The sum of $4,000, which the Trigg
Company would receive II the bill for tho
relief OF the various yards were to be-
come n law. would go into the hands Of
the receiver for the company and would
DO paid out to claimants, and not a penny
of 1t would go to the stockholders.
But tho bill will not pass at this ses-
sion, though a member OF the House
Committee on Claims said to-day he
thought there would be little difficulty In
getting 1t through next session,
