The Cultivation of Cacti.

The following account of some OF
the curious forms OF this strange fam
lily, was written for Farm and Fireside
by Charles Alma Byers:
The cultivation Of cacti as an in
dustry may seem to many persons as
an odd one. And in fact it is, for it
is by no means common. There is
a farm, however, about twelve miles
from Phoenix, Arizona, on which the
cactus family is given full sway-prob-
ably the most peculiar farm of veg
citation in the world. It contains
nearly every variety Of the cactus plant
known either in the United States
or Mexico, and the various specimens
here grown are as near perfection as
any that grow in the desert, the ma
tural home Of cacti. Here are to be
found plants varying in sizes from
varieties which grow to height of
only few inches to giants which
tower upward sixty and seventy feet
This unique farm was started ten
years ago by Dr.. R. E. Kunze. It's
location is in what may be considered
part Of the vast desert region which
reaches outward from almost the city
limits of Phoenix. The cactus family,
beng truly children of the desert and
rebelllous against ordinary cultivation
and civilization, has here been given
by Doctor Kunze a home as near
like its wild one as was possible. 1t
receives the same stinting of moisture,
and each plant is given bed of al
kali and gravel and rock, as though
it still grew wild.
The different varieties of D1ants in
this cactus nursery, or farm, have
been gathered by Doctor Kunze from
all parts of the deserts of the United
States and Mexico. Some have grown
from the. seed, but the largest por-
ton Of them has been transplanted.
The doctor frequently makes long
trips into the surrounding desert, and
always brings in a fine collection of
specimens. He starts on one of these
expeditions with a covered wagon,
horses and mules, implements for
grubblng, three or four assistants, and
supplies sufficient to last for several

ularity until now his entire time has
been taken up in growing potato slips,
and his shipments have been extended
to all parts of the South
To give an idea of the Importance
of the industry, it may be said that
the shipments during the. season Will
amount to an average of 100000
month. Mr.. Cooley is making
good thing of the potato industry,
which has also proved good thing
for Waldo.

The tomato growers of Dade county
were especially fortunate this season
in their tomato crop, the total crop
amounting to about $4,000 crates,
which averaged $1.75 per crate. AS
the cost of production was about 65
cents a crate, it means $1,ooo,ooo profit

brilliant CONTEST.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, Nov. 23.-ln
one of the most closely fought grid
iron battles in the history Of football
in Nashville Mooney and Castle
Heights fought to a 6 to s draw in
thirty-minutes halves Friday afternoon
at Athletic Park. The game was
draw and should have been a draw.
Before the game 1t was uncertain as
to which was the better team, and
now 1t is equally uncertain. The two
teams played great foot ball. Castle
Heights having the best Of X in the
first half, while the Murfreesboro lads
came back strong in the second and
outclassed their opponents. On good
old-fashioned slap, bang foot ball,
Mooney unquestionably had the advari-
tage, and under the old 5-yard rule,
would have won. On newafoot ball,
wide, open runs, mixed In with clever
forward passes, the Lebanon team
was the better Of the two.

Bryan, further than to say that l

should be ineligible for reelection, but
do not think It is necessary to- ex-
tend the term. l endeavored when in
congress to secure an amendment to
the constitution making the President
ineligible to reelection. and still be-
lieve that the one-term Idea Is better.

" EITHER IN PRIMARY OR BY
A CONVENTION.
DECLARES CITY JUDGE FLOYD
Former Columbian Says That SENT
ment is Almost Solid For
Primary.

Judge A. C. Floyd, of Memphis, a.
rived Friday for a few days visit TO
his old home. Judge Floyd is Judge
Of the City Court of Memphis He
was one of the officials ousted by the
infamous ripper bill, but the decision
of the Supreme Court holding that
act unconstitutional restored him to Of
fee. He was very much gratified at the
result of the recent election In Mem
phis. which relegated the Williams
Patterson machine to the background,
and was big victory for the reform
element.
Judge Floyd declared that Shelby
county was certain to cast its vote
for Carmack, whether primary or
convention was held. The sentiment
however he stated, was all for a pr
mary and the Democratic Executive
Committee OF the county, will petition
the state committee to hold a ger
eral primary. In cidentally. he said,
the sentiment in favor Of strict con-
troll and regulation Of the liquor bus
ness in Memphis was growing very
rapidly.

AND DIRECTORS ARE INDICTED
OFFICIALS OF SUSPENDED BOROUGH BANK
ARE CHARGED WITH LARCENY
AND FORGERY.
s,ssr NAMED GOES TO DEFAULT OF soNo-MsAPPHo
pHATIoN OF .i4sOOO ON ESTATE CHARGED TO
rHEM-sTARrEo TRUST COMPANY.

The larceny charges grew out OF the
establishment of the international
Trust Company, OF which Cow is Pres
ident. The executors of the Mcclure
estate some time ago deposited $145.-
600 against this account, and turned
the check over to the Oriental Bank,
the depository for the newly organ
lied International Trust Company.
This check. it is alleged. was used to
make up the 1000, 900 capital and sur
plus required before the new bank
was permitted to open. This sum was
returned to the Borough Bank as last
as the stock of the International was
disposed of, and all was returned with
the exception of $4,000. For this bal
auce a note of F. w. Doolittle, the Pri-
vate Secretary of Cow. was put in.
The indictments for forgery concern
the last quarterly statement, In which
the oyerdrafts of the bank were re-
ported as s201, whereas it Is alleged
they really totalled $4,000. All OF
the crimes are alleged to have been
committed since the first of the pres
ent year.
1t is understood that the inquiry
into the Borough Banks affairs is not
concluded, though it may be tempo
rarily suspended when the investiga-
tion OF the jenkins Trust Company IS
begun by the grand jury tomorrow
When the FIVE Brooklyn banks went IN
to the hands of receiver, Attorney
General Jackson alleged that evidence
OF criminal acts in the management
Of the Borough Bank and the Jenkins
Trust Company had been discovered.

Announces PLAN
FOR BOND ISSUE
BANKS WILL RECEIVE THREE.
FoURTHs or Tbs PRICE
FOR DEPOSIT.
MUCH RELIEF TO THE SITUATION
Demand For the Panama Bonds Comes
From All Sections Of
Country.


WASHINGTON, Nov. 22.-An i'm
portant announcement Of policy was
made by Secretary Cortelyou late this
afternoon in regard to the allotment
of new one-year Treasury certificates,
which indicates that the Secretary is
prepared to cut red tape as far as pos
sible and place the proceeds OF the
sale of the certificates promptly at the
disposal of the money market.
He proposes to return to National
banks subscribing to the certificates
as a deposit of public money, IS per
cent of the cash paid for them. The
remaining 25 per cent will go, for the
time being, to strengthen the cash bal
ance of the Treasury. The banks sur
rendering this 25 per cent will not,
however suffer a reduction in their
supply of currency, for they will be
entitled to receive the par value OF
the certificates purchased in new bank
note circulation.
In order to make this transaction
Immediately effective, the Treasury
will retain the certificates purchased
by each bank If it is desired that they
be deposited with the United States
Treasury as security for circulation
and will ship the notes at once.
Secretary Cortelyou is studying the
applications for certificates carefully
in order to make the allotments in the
manner which will be most beneficial
to the monetary situation. The Secre-
tary continued to receive calls today
from prominent bankers and letters
from various points in regard to the
new issues.
The bids for the Panama per cent
bonds are being kept sealed until the
time to close the time for receipts Oh
bids, which is week from tomorrow.
This prevents any calculation as 10
the amount subscribed or as to the
prices OH6TeQ, DuL InC huhAU~A - 1885,
is already sufficient to indicate very
general response from the banks OF
the country. While the envelopes
have not been examined to determine
the source of the bids, it is believed
that they will come from National
banks to larger extent than the SUD
scriptions for the one-year certihcates'
because the Panama bonds, with tneir
low rate of interest, offer less attrac-
ton to private investors than to Ma
Ntional banks, for whom they carry the
privilege of increasing their circula-
ton. In the case of certificates as
well as the bonds, assurances have
been received that large offerings viii
be made next week when the money
market conditions will be more fully
developed than at present
