AFTERNOON.

full The weather conditions We're ideal and
the show opened in an suspicious manner.
This year the event is being held on the

of a mile back of the clubhouse The ring
is well laid out and large enough to show

stand. only recently erected, will seat 1000
persons.
When the judging began this afternoon
only a few parsons were in their seats. but
about $50 O'Clock the people began to ar

the hurdles the stand will be well filed.

Reticent as to Tariff Revision.
Governor Cummins of Iowa was another
caller with the President before the cabinet
met. The Iowa governor, when asked what
he thought ought to be done to meet the
growing deficit of the treasury said that
there were many ways suggested but that
there did not seem to be any crystaliza-
ton OF sentiment on the subject. He adj
mitted that changes in the tariff would be
one way of bringing about additional rev.

he believed this way would be adopted

often the quality of fruit is poor, sim
ply because it has not been allowed to
properly ripen. This premature gath
ering of fruit probably also interferes
with the maintenance of the highest
quality of their seeding trees. Many
of the producers practice grafting
from trees of unusual merit. but the
general rule is to raise trees from the
seeds Early picking also prevents
the fruit from keeping as long as it
otherwise would. but i'm spite of green
picking the fruit will keep for months.
We have had pomelOs here in March
from a crop which ripen in October
and November. The Chinese have no
particular means of caring for the
crop. The pOmelOS are handled in
bags and receive little care. Their
keeping qualities naturally could be
greatly increased by more careful
handling. As it is they are shipped

rough usage and more or less bruiS-

them has exhausted the supply. |

popular fruits in the United States.
