SELECTION OF CROPS.
Why Gardeners and Fruit Grcweri
Should Stick Steadily TO Plants
That Are Profitable.

good many producers Of vegetables
and fruits keep no account of their
operations. A good many more keep
account. but do not keep account OF
each individual crop. But 1t is impos-
sible for man to know what crops
are paying him and what crops are
running him into debt unless he does
keep an account with each one. On
some farms the mere elimination of the
money-losing crops would make a
great difference In the annual reve-
nues. The man that will do this extra
bookkeeping will generally find that he
has some useless cropper that Is taking
his time and effort. but not making
him cent Of money. taking one year
with another. II takes the fertility
money to pay for the actual labor This
is no indication that the particular
crop Is not a profitable one to some

different soil. or going into market
different from that to which this farm
er may have access. 1t is generally
the case that no one farm is adapted
to the growing of all kinds of crops.
In fact II may be well said that this
general adaptability Of land never oc-
ours Only limited number of plants

the problem is to find those and elm

LaFollette movement threatens the
complete obliteration Of the republican
party in Wisconsin Already La Toilette
is under the guidance of William }.
Bryan, and many of his followers are
Bryan democrats Republican prin
ciples, traditions and restraints have
been thrown to the winds, and by the
time this mongrel host has wholly
captured the state ii may repudiate the
republican party also and literally
abolish the republican party in Wiscon
sin.
The republican party is now in the
same position with reference to La
Toilette that the democratic party WAS
with reference to Bryan in 1896, and
might learn valuable lesson from
what the democratic party then failed
to do. II Bryan had been forced to bolt
the convention in that year the demo
cratic party might now have been
intact and triumphant. In like manner.
if the republican party will now drive
La Toilette outside of party lines, where
he will be comparatively harmless, it
will save itself great deal of demorali'
zation and vain regret in the future.
The task, however, will be harder for
the republicans than it would have been
for the democrats by 80 much as La
Toilette is an ADLER man than Bryan. 1t
would he folly for them to Disguise the
fact that the leader who now threatens
the dsvision and extinction of the re-
publican party in Wisconsin is the peer
of any man in the convention in popu-
larity, generalship and INSCRIPTIONS
ness.

THE OPPORTUNITY OF THE
WISCONSIN DEMOCRATS.

There is no wind but blows to some
bodys good says the poet. The calam-
ity of the Wisconsin republicans is the
opportunity of the Badger democrats
this year. There is tide in the AT
fairs Of men which taken at It's height
leads to fortune The opportunity pre-.
sents itself Let us grasp it. The tide
Is advancing Let NJ take it at lts
height, let it bear the Wisconsin democ-
racy to victory
The fact that the republican party
has been cut ia twain by factional ardor
and partisan animosity clears the way
for the success of the democrats. Now
the auspices have been taken. Here Is
the answer Of the oracle to Badger
democrats If You will get together
and work in harmony if you will drop
all acrimonious chickering's about past
controversies and dead issues if you
will marshal all your strength and pre-
sent united front if you will not per
init self.seekirg politicians to manlpn-
late the State convention ut Oshkosh,
dictate the ticket and the platform,
if YOU will see to it that the right men
are nominated. if you will do all these
things, you will gain the day and be-
come firmly intrenched in Wisconsin for
years
This year democratic success hinges
solely on democratic harmony, alert
ness, wisdom and activity OF these
things harmony il the first requisite
Alertness is necessary if we would keep
the self seeking politiciansOut Of the ap-
preaching state convention. or see to IT,
at least, that they do not write the plat
quinte4sence Of wisdom il called for
must be exercised to place in the
field ticket strong from head to tail t.
ticket that shall spell VICTORY by
commenting itself TO united demOCra
cy Wisdom, also, is required to pro
produce II platform from well seasoned
Jeifersonian timber And last, but far
from the least, activity il demanded in
marshaling the united strength of all
believers in genuine democratic princi
pies.
The time il ripe for democratic vic
tory IN Wisconsin Let all democrats
get together, seize the opportunity, pre-
sent a united front and their efforts
will be crowned 10y success. Let the
Badger democrats show that they de-
serve success and the victory at theneXt
election will be theirs

TALK ABOUT CELERY.
Its Cultivation Is Not Very Difficult
IL Proper and Approved Meth
DDS Are Followed.

We select as moist a place as posi-
BILE, usually on the north side of some
building. and prepare seed bed as
for any other small seed and pack the
bed firmly with board after sowing
the seed. We cover with tobacco can
vas and water frequently in dry weather.
The bed should be watched closely
as the plants are easily smothered by
weeds.
When plants are three or four inches
high transplant In rich, well-pre-
pared soil. Sometimes we set plants
on the level ground and sometimes we
set In furroW four or five inches
deep. We prefer the latter as the fine
earth can be worked around the small
plants with more ease. destroying tho
weeds that appear and giving needed
cultivation with less labor In Guilt
keep a fine. loose surface, preserving
as much moisture as possible. We even
cover our footprints.
AS soon as the plants are large
enough we begin to blanch by killing
up around the plants, being careful to
keep the soil from the center Of plants.
Our experience has been that celery
grows much faster after we commence
killing, and oftener we draw the
soil up to 1t. the faster 1t grows and
the better plants It makes Last year
we left few plants without killing
and they were not worth taking up.
Late In the fall the plants or hills
should be stored in cellar or some
place where they will not freeze, We
pack in shallow boxes, first placing two
| or three inches of soil in the bot
tom. The plants are taken up with rs
much earth as will adhere to the roots.
They are packed close In the boxes
and the roots and lower part of the
| plants are covered with soil. Water
enough Is put on to make the soil
quite damp. being careful not to pour
1t on the plants. Put up in this way

Shintoism, and Taoism are the prevail

might prove the leaven that would cause
the Chinese to rise into higher state OF
civilization and to coalesce with the
Japanese into one people-a nation
homogeneous in race and rei'gion-a
nation with vast stage, with bound
less natural resources, and with popu
lation of $50, 600, 600 souls fired by Japa
nese genius and animated by common
hopes and common aspirations. Such a
