The bushel box Is rapidly dispIactng
the old fashioned barrel as a package
for marketing apples. It has much to
commend it. 1t compels more honest
packing Of the fruit, not afYording so
much of a hiding place for culls. It
dispenses with the expert services Of a
cooper In the making of it; it more
nearly meets the requirements Of the
average family than does a barrel Of
fruit, while there is a very material
gain in the matter Of freight charges,
there being no waste space in filing a
car. We understand that the first cost
= about the same as that of the barrel,
and, not being greater, we look to see
the apples Of the future 90 to market
in boxes rather than barrels. The fine
condition in which the fruit growers Of
Colorado and Utah are putting their
apples on the markets this season fur
nishes ample proof that the box is SUI
perior to the barrel.

Do you happen to have a field OF
wornout, unproductive land, a field
which only gives you twenty bushels
Of oats or corn to the acre, and would
you know the easiest and most practi-
cal method Of restoring fertility to
such field and making it productive
and profitable? The following has
been done with very great success and
Is commended to our readers: First
seed the land down to mammoth clo-
yer, the next year turn the crop under
In September, then follow with crop
Of corn and then with wheat, oats or
barley. In this crop Of small grain will
be another good stand Of clover, the
product Of the clover seed turned un-
der. Follow the clover crop turned I'M
der again with another crop Of corn.
The result Of this treatment will be
that the first crop Of corn will in all
probability give you fifty instead Of
Twenty bushels an acre, while the sec
md crop will so sixty rather than fifty.
This method Of restoring WORKOUT
land is but little understood and rarely
followed, but It Is the one practical and
sensible methods Of accomplishing such
q result. In no manner can poor land
be made productive and fertile SO easi-
y and so cheaply as by following the
suggestion above given. Us

MOTHER SETTLED BY ARBITRATION
Therefore Hampton Was the First

Much Interest.
(By George f. Foster. }


1t come to pass, so history states,
that early in 1907, the Virginia colo.
nists were hungry, there being scare.
ity of food. John Smith, who always
was relied on when there was per-
picking problem to solve, was ordered
to take twenty men In six boats and
go down to Keconghtan, where 1t was
known that the Indians had stored n
quantity OF grain. Powhatan, the
king, had by this time become un.
friendly toward tho colonists, and
knowing their need, decided not to
trade them food On their arrival, tho
Indians scorned them as famished
men. In derlsion they offered them n
handful of corn for their swords and
musketry and such like propositions,
also, for their apparel, Captain Smith,
seeing that by trade and courtesy
there was nothing to be had, she made
bold to try such conclusions as neces.
sity enforced. though contrary to his
commissions rhel lot fly his muskets,
ran his boat ashore, whereat they fled
to the woods" The remainder OF the
incident is told In Smiths own narra-
tive as FLOWS.
So marching toward their houses.
Ithey1 see great heapes of corne;
much udoo he had, to restrnine his
hungry soldiers from [thel present
taking of It, expecting, as It happened
that the salvaGes would assault them,
us they not long nfter did, with most
hydeus noyse. SiXlIe or seventie Of
them, some blncks, some red, some
white, some partly coloured. came In
square order singing ana dancing one
OF tho moods. with their Okec. which
was an idole nude Of stlnnes stuffed
with moss, all painted and hung with
chaincs and copper, borne before
them, and in their manners, being well
armed with clubs, targets, bowes and
arrows, they charged the English; not
so kindly received them, with their
muskets loaden with pistol shot, that
downe fell their God, and divers lay
sprawling OH the ground, the rest fled
again to the woods and are long sent
one OF their youghkasoucks to offer
peace and redeem their okee tsafety
. godl." ~
: tF6, THIS Smith, who had already hur.
ried their Okee to his boat, agreed, II
only six Indians would come unarmed
and load his boats with the desired
grain. Not only would he be their
friend, but would restore them their
Okee and give them beads and hatch.
OTIS besides The Indians FASTENED to
do this. They sent thor six delegates
to consult with Smith, one each for the
number of boats Smith had with him
i The Indians also brought yenison, tur-
keys, chickens and bread, etc, In sign
OF their friendship. They filled his
boats with grain. Arbitration proved
satisfactory to both sides, and seem
ingly was first used to settle disputes
& at Hampton, Va. In 1907.

APPEAL FOR DIXIE HOSPITAL.


Next Sunday to be General Collection
Day for This institution In Churches.
Editor Daily Press:-
Shall the Dixie Hospital be closed
or shall the citizens Of Hampton come
TO it's rescue? At the last meeting of
tho directors and officers OF that In
stitution the startling fact was dis
closed that unless financial aid Is
forthcoming and that right early, the
hospital cannot hope to keep It's doors
longer oren. There are not sufficient
funds for daily needs, hence daily
debts are piling high and obligations
becoming heavier and more hopeless
What change If each Of the eight
thousand citizens OF Hampton were to
make an average contribution Of one
dollar or even of fifty cents per year.
and thus maintain the hospital which
might In case Of sudden emergency
furnish the means Of saving the life
OF some person who never thought to
be overtaken by unexpected accident
or Illness, as the hospital has saved
the lives Of such persons In the past.
Not only is 1t refuge in case OF EN-
Urgency, but boon when such sick
ness overtakes the homes of Hamp-
ton as to require trained service in
nursing. With perfect ease and con-
yenience nurses can he obtained with
In one hour after their services are
needed, and this fact alone should call
forth the keenest interest of tho
Hampton people In behalf of the hos
pital
What difference In the debt col.
umn there would be IL the $4,000 were
paid which Is owing to the Dixie by
persons In this town who have been
patients in the hospital. Some of
those owing this money may not be
able to pay, but Is that the case with
all?
At their recent annual meeting, the
directors and Officers devised new
system for the collection of dues and
contributions for the ensuing year.
Envelopes have been provided, one
for each month, and 1t Is desired that
every person shall take package of
these, enclose his monthly due of ten
cents or any additional contribution he
la able to make. ami hand the same
to the treasurer. The twelve envel-
opes may be filled and returned at
one, time IL so desired; If not, place
these envelopes where they may be
seen, and as often as church dues are
paid; as often as grocery bills are
met; as often as any monthly obliga.
