lance those blighting frosts SO destruc-
tive to the young buds.
For a fifteen acre vineyard the cost
for each cloud necessary kill frost
should not exceed $50, and should you
be visited by four such frosts during a
season Ca high average) this would
mean an outlay of something like 1000
francs, or ESQ. But when you consider
that the result will be the saving of at
least % per cent. of the harvest, or say
from $50 to 200 barrels of wine, the
cost is too trifing to consider.
During the many years l have been

barrels of wine, for never once has my
plan failed to accomplish its object
that is to say, when the smoke cloud
has been sent up in time. AS a rule
when frost comes the atmosphere is
free from all agitation, and the smoke
remains above the vine yard like a
canopy. OF course if a hurricane or
even a moderately strong breeze ac-
companied the frost we should have
our trouble for nothing; but fortunate

HoosIER IRON.

The reported discovery of rich de-
posit of iron ore near Petersburg, Ind,
should not excite great expections of
commercial results before an examina-
ton by the state geoIogist.
The existence in Indiana of consider
able deposits of iron ore of fairly good
quality has been known for more than
half a century. AS far back as 1S45 a
furnace near Bloomfield, in Gr~ne
County, operated during fifteen years,
produced about nine tons of pig iron
daily. In 1870 there were fifteen fur
.naces operating in the state.
At that time the iron business was
thought to have great futre in In
diana, but the discovery Of much rich
err ores in other parts of the country
caused its comparative submergence in
Indiana. The ores used in this state
We're known as limonite or bog iron
ore, and contained from IS to AZ per
cent of iron. This could not compete
with the hematite ores of the Lake
Superior, Tennessee, Missouri and Ala
ptllid IRON feSloIlS, WHICH contain 90 TO
60 per cent. Under the stress of a COM
petition that could not be met, the
Indiana furnaces gradually quit busi-
ness, the last one going out of blast in
1898.
At present iron ore is being mined in
Martin County and shipped to Ohio,
where it is treated with richer ore, for
the iron it contains and for the Stag,
which is used in the manufacture of

SMOKE TO PROTECT VINES.


Plan of a Grape Grower to Save His
Crop From Frost.
One of the most successful growers
Of grapes in France to-day is M, Bigon,
a scientist as well as an agriculturist
who has lately been explaining to the
members of the French National
Society of Agriculture the methods he
adopts for saving his vineyards from
late frosts. NJ. Bignon declares that
for many years he has employed arti-
fetal clouds for the prevention of
frOsts, and that, had his example been
followed by others, millions of francs
worth of wine have been saved.
MY plan Of operation" says NJ. Big
non, is very simple. Along my walks,
at a distance of some fifty feet apart,
] have basins sunk into the earth to a
depth of about foot.
Into these basins I place from fifteen
to twenty pound of resinous matter
and some pieces of pine and other vege-
table debris. This makes a cloud of
sufficient size to keep any ordinary
frost from affecting my vines. The
amount of material, used of course,
depends on the length of the frost.
"As a rule the late frosts are not
numerous. and if we get three or four
during a season we consider ourselves
very badly used. In 1903 the frosts
were bad, and I had recourse to these
artificial fires four times with perfect
success. The resinous matter creates
a dense cloud which hangs over the
vines like a curtain, producing a tenn
perature which successfully at dis

MEAT AND THE CONSTITUTION

MEAT AND THE CONSTITUTION.
/ The fresh meat apparently some
80 per cent. of the cattle slaughtered, is
all right.
2. AS to per cent which is canned,
it seems to be matter of sociological
inference, rather than of demonstration
that there is anything unheathful in
it.
3. Sanitary conditions in the Chicago
stockyards were capable Of improve
ment, and are being improved.
4. 1t is safe to assume that all
packing houses, in or out of Chicago
will hereafter be conducted with as
much cleanliness as is possible in a
trade necessarily less inviting that the
selling of chocolate pistache.
S. There is no need Of public excite
ment over the matter and the public
health was never better.
6, Behind the hoggsh and unpopular
beef trust are great, innocent indus
tries and hundreds Of thousands Of in
nocent persons that have been injured
and will continue to be injured until
the feverish disposition to believe the
worst passes away
T. Federal meat inspection constitu-
tional or unconstitutional, is now
yarned for. 1t was easy for Mr.
Grumpcker of Indiana to make a
strong argument against its constitu-
tionality. The mixed feelings of the
House committee on agriculture are
described in The Suns Washington dis
patches;
Some of them believe that his con-
tentions are valid, but are anxious to
take action that will appease the pub
lie mind and correct the injury that has
already been done to the packing inter-
ests and the stock raisers, while others,
before doing anything, want to get the
packers to consent to overlook the I'M
constitutionality of any law that may
be enacted and abide by it's provisions.
8. Unconstitutionality, by consent of
the party affected, is a little curious,
but both congress and the packers seem
willing to do almost anything to stop
the damage and the alarm.
8. State and local inspection are sure
to be more rigid hereafter.
TO- The majority Of people will con-
tinue to eaa in peace. The Constitution
may be the principal sufferer.-New
