CULTURE OF ASPARAGUS.

How to Prspars The Ground and Set
the Roots.
As garden vegetable asparagus
was cultivated more than 1000 year,,
ago among the Greeks and Romans.
1t is generally supposed to be a native
Of Europe and Asia. Among the hard
lest Of plants, it will endure neglect
Quite frequently stalks are found
along the roadside and in fence cor
ners. where they live for years with
out attention. But nevertheless as
paragus responds to kind treatment
Practical asparagus growers OF the
state of New Jersey prefer planting in
the spring. They set the roots six to
ten inches deep and cover very lightly
at first, say two or three inches. the
remainder being gradually filed in
during the summer.
Roots may be planted as late AZ July
/ and even later. Early planting,
however, gives them a chance to make
some growth Of tops before winter
sets in. There Is no danger Of getting
the sou too rich. Starved roots are one
great cause Of rust.
The next fall after setting give the
bed q heavy coat of stable manure,
and the spring following use nitrate
Of soda. After that 1t is advised to
use stable manure one year and com
mercial fertilizer the next and nitrate
Of soda every spring.
In preparing for asparagus It II best

AFTER CONSIDERABLE DISCUS.
SION ON THIS SUBJECT Off.
GERS ARE ELECTED AND,MEET.
ING THEN ADJOURNED.

Indianapolis, May 2O.-With the cleo.
ton of officers, the adoption of reso.
lutions favoring a tariff commission
and legislation that will stop specllat-
ing in grain, the millers Of Indiana
yesterday closed the most successful
meeting in the history of the organi.
cation.
Reports from twenty-five different
counties indicate that the wheat acre
age of the state is but so per cent Of
what it was last year; that the condi-
ton of the crop is 10 per cent worse
than at this time last year: that 81
per cent of the acreage sown has been
Abandoned: that the wheat stock Of the
millers is but 81 per cent of what they
held at this time last year, and that
farmers are still holding per cent OF
the last years crops.
Much Discussion.
There was considerable discussion
preceding the adoption of the resolu.
ton against speculation. The millers
did not agree whether the present high
price of wheat was due wholly, par
TALLY or not at all to the Patten spec
ulations They entertained varying
views Later, however, when Edgar
H. Evans of Indianapolis. chairman Of
the committee on resolutions. reported

ed. No legislative remedy, however
| was suggested in detail.
Earlier H. E. Kinney of Indianapolis
had led a discussion on speculation in
the course of which he told how some
countries of Europe had taken precau-
tons against speculation by providing
that only such men should buy grain
as actually were in the business. He
believed this would practically stop
all speculation
The resolution suggested that the
whole tariff question was complicaI.
ed that commission was the proper
solution.
Officers Elected.
A good part Of the afternoon session
was given over to free-for-all discus
sion. in the course of which much was
said about the importance of keeping
cost accounts accurately and scientific
ally. and resolution provided for the
mailing, by the secretary. to the mem

John F. Russell of Greensburg. was
