Luscious is the proper adjective to
apply to those fig preserves from the
Alexa Plantation. which the propri-
etor, Robert H. Kern, Jr., was dis
playing in town Monday. These
preserves are the product of the pre-
serving plant that was recently
erected on the Alexa plantation by
the St Louis Syrup and Preserving
company, which has a contract for
all of the figs raised in the Alexa
fig orchard for three years at three
cents q pound for whole figs and two
cents for split or mashed figs. The
crop this year VIII run the plant
about five weeks, the OUTPUT eng
about l,500 pounds per day.
The figs are of the magnolia va
riety. There are fifty acres of mem
on MIR Kern's place, all but eight
acres Of which are only two years
Old, the others being three years
old. The greater part Of these pre-
serves are put up III one-Pound Jars,

Rio Grande Tiger Fig Preserves"
r. d. Sellers of Aldene, Texas,
who has been Identified with the
Carpenter Preserving company for
years, is in charge OF the plant
The sight of these beautiful figs
was enough to make one want TO
invest in as many jars as his purse
could afford, but Mr. Kern was
obliged to inform his Brownsville
friends that they are not for valley
consumption Every jar of them
has been contracted for in St. Louis
and the only way for valley fox
to enjoy such delicacy is to start
fig orchards of their own and put
up their own preserving plant
Figs are not the only thing that
are grown at the AIexa plantation,
by any means On Mr.. Kern's farm
of l65 acres, which adjoins the
town of Santa Maria, 28 miles from

EIecting London's Mayor.

Special to The Herald,
London, Sept 29.-"All We that
are not liverymen depart this hall on
pain of Imprisonment. With the
cry of the Middle Ages the solemn
mace bearer opened the quaint pro-
ceedings of the Guildhall today,
which will result in the election OF
London's next Lord Mayor. Unlike
all other great municipalities, Lon
dOn's Lord Mayor is not the choice
of the common council or a pOlIJi-
cal clique, so there has not been any
hot campaign nor speechmaking pre-
ceding the election.
This empty ceremony of electiRg
the chief magistrate of the greatest
city OF the world is held on St Mich
aelmas Day each year and is one OF
the most quaint and striking survi-
walls of the Middle Ages. He must
needs have been elected alderman OF
his ward by the ratepayers many
years before being eligible for the
mayoralty.
He must have served as sheriff by
the election of eight thousand liv-
erymen, representing the wealthiest
and most influential citizens. As
sheriff he must have had the appro-
val of the king, and to become Lord
Mayor he must appear again before
the liverymen and the king, and on
Lord Mayors Day he must visit the
law courts, and before the judges,

past history.
