Il know of several sponge farms in
the Mediterranean that pay well,' said
q druggist. The sponge in the past
was always gathered wild, like the
clam. It is only of late years that
tame or cultivated sponge a farm
product like the OYSTER appeared. The
world owes sponge farms and sponge
farming to Professor Oscar Schmidt, Il
Syrian. Schmidt some years ago made
study of sponges. He selected Il
good place in the bed of the sea, and.
breaking of pieces OF living sponge, he
planted them. The result was excel
lent. The planted spOngeS grew well
or better than the wild. At Il cost of
$45 Schmidt raised 1900 sponges worth
$1,000. oysters are cultivated. Lob
sters are cultivated. Pearl bearing
oysters are cultivated. SponSes are
cultivated. Mark me, it won't be long
before coral and whales will be cult
vated-before the sea, like the land,
will be owned and farmed by man. -

AFTER ELEVATOR TRUST.
Evidence Produced Against Chicago
Grain Men,

Chicago, Nov. Evidence tending
to show that the leading grain ele-
vator companies in Chicago are in an
illegal combination for the purpose
of controlling the grain warehouse
business in contravention of the state
laws has been submitted to States
Attorney Healy by John Hill, Jr.,
with a request that it be laid before
the next grand jury as evidence of
conspiracy against trade" The prin-
cipal evidence submitted is copy or
the agreement between the elevator
companies, which, it is claimed, shows
them to be guilty of acts in restraint
of trade, in that a certain percentage
of the earnings of the warehouses
were pooled.
The agreement is the same intro
duced at recent hearings before the
interstate commerce commission. A
blacklist, it is claimed, was kept af-
fecting the owners of elevators not in
the commission.

RECEIVER APPOINTED.
Step by Judge Fruit to Wind Up
Plantation Company.

La Crosse, Wis, Nov. 1.-The first
step indicating the dissolution of the
Mexican Plantation company was
taken when Judge Fruit in the circuit
court, appointed c. S. Van Auken re-
ceiver. Creditors and stockholders
Joined in asking for this action, but
there was a controversy between the
factions in regard to the appointee.
The Mexican Plantation company is
capitalized at 100000. A great
amount of stock was sold in all parts
of Wisconsin, many people of small
means being among the purchasers.
The failure is attributed to the high
price paid for the plantation from the
first holders and to the i'll luck at
tending its operation. 1t is probable
that the stockholders will realize no
thing.
