The main trunk Of the Georgia
vine is much larger than the English

branches is over twice as large. II
is CO nsidered very probable that the
Georg ia vine is the largest under cul-
tiva ton In the world.
II was planted in December, 1873,

living at the age Of so years. The
vine isnow Ave feet thick at the base

GENERAL BILLY"
RYDER IS DEAD.
His LifeIess Body on the Floor
of a Rooming House.

Kansas City Times March IL.
General William B. Ryder, poll
tician, mine promoter and Of late
years preacher, famous for half q
century as Missouri character,
was found pead yesterday afternoon
in Il rooming house at GIT Walnut
street.
Decrepit with years, sick and
wasted by dissipation, the old mans
remaining vitality deserted him sud-
denly. He was found where he had
9 vidently fallen several hours before,
b uddled hall clothed on the floor Of
bis cold aud dingy little room.
He had had q room for ten days
at this house. He had not given bis
name and had no acquaintance In
the house. For several days he had
been drinking heavily, making each
night until Thursday q late and
n oisy entrance TO his room. Thurs
day night he did not 60 out. Yes
terday morning Mrs. Birmingham,
the proprietress, went to his room
to collect rent, but received no
answer to her knock. She tried the
d oor, but found some obstruction
was against II on the inside and
went away. At 4:30 O'Clock a board
or In the house was sent to the room
and found the body.
The eccentricities Of General Billy"
Ryder had been known to Missouri
. oliticians since the civil war. Old
timers say he had not missed a ses-
sion OF the state Legislature since
1858. He gained fame by his tire
less and vitriolic championship Of
bills Of his own devising. He declar-
ed he was the original expounder Of
the S.hour law, first advocating It's
passage as early as 1867, and he
was Justly credited with the law i'm.
p osing a state tax on beer, passed
under the title of the Farris bill in
1899
The age, habitation and means OF
livelihood OF General Billy" had for
m any years been matters Of vague
conjecture among his friends. He
was supposed to have been born in
Ireland, and ives about 70 years old
at his death. His first appearance
at the state legislature in Jefferson
City was as a young gentleman Of
leisure. He readily rid himself Of
$40, 600, an inheritance. The first
bill championed by him which be-
came law was a measure to abolish
the Missouri state lottery, passed in
1873. After the bill became a law,
the gamblers carried the fight into
the courts, and it was during this
litigation that Ryder fought with
and stabbed q gambler. For this he
was sent to the penitentiary, but
ls pardoned by Governor Phelps,
who became convinced that RYDER
I'm riscDment was the result OF a
deliberate plot to get him out OF the
way.
Once when "Billy" Ryder was with
out money and his clothes were
threedhnre Frank P Walsh bought
him a new suit of clothes. He wore
them two or three years and from
that time to the day OF his death he
was for what ever pleased Walsh,

Rape, A Profitable Pasture.
weekly Agricultural Letter.,


There Is no crop grown on tie
Iarm that produces such q large
amount of valuable pasture in 20
short a time as Rape. This plant
comes to us from England where its
use has been recognized for many
years. When young and small 1t re-
sembles somewhat the cabbage and
turnip. 1t differs from these In hav-
ing q thickened stem and thick sue
culent leaves.
The practical experiments in feed
ing this most valuable forage plant
In this country Indicate that one
acre OF Rape is more valuable for
leeding sheep or hogs than one acre
OF clover, blue grass timothy, or any
other common pasture plant. Some
experiments have even indicated
that rape may rival alfalfa itself as
pasture for hogs.
For feeding wethers and lambs
rape has been used extensively at
the Ontario Agricultural College,
Wisconsin, Michigan and Missouri.
At these stations rape pasture pro-
duced from 800 to 500 pounds OF
mutton per acre. At cents pound
.or mutton this would give rape pas
ture a value of $500 to $25. 90 per
acre The results from grazing hogs
ON rape are even more favorable In
some respects to this plant than the
above.
At the Alabama Station one acre
u rape produced 512 pounds OF
pork, which at 5 cents a pound,
xoald be worth $25.60. At the Wis
sonsin Station rape compared with
clover pasture showed I per cent ad
van tsge for rape in the amount OF
grain per 100 pounds OF gain.
20 every experiment grain has
seen fed with the pasture. Rape is
aos a successful pasture for hogs
when grazed alone, without grain.
Rape has two advantages which
may, or may not prove serious &C.
eording to the methods Of handling.
It sometimes causes bloat in sheep
and cattle but is no more dangerous
10 this respect than a rank growth
Of green clover. Another objection
to pasturing hogs on rape is that
the hogs, particularly white hogs,
blister badly in the summer In the
hot sun. The latter difficulty has
only been reported in q very few
sases and can probably be easily
prevented by turning hoge on rape
only after the dew has dried OF oil
