wonders how they are all used, and
who creates a demand which would jus
tlfy their importation in such varieties
and quantity Certain 1t is that you
may tramp the streets Of New York
for years and never see tobacco used
IN this form. What class in the COM
runity does it?
Connoisscurs, travellers who have
ricked up the habit and foreigners
are ready buyers, But the great field
for the sale Of snuff is the South

folks take 1t in the good old fashion

which the powder is poured ana which
Is then applied to the inside of the
mouth and especially to the gums.

Peach PITT for Planting.

south, when taken up to plant in the
orchard, were as a rule devoid of fl
brous roots, and only a straight or tap
root, with one or two coarse side
roots, which made them unpopular
with the planters.
Fall planting and leaving them un
disturbed in the nursery row was the
reason assigned for the lack of fibrous
or lateral roots.
The New Jersey nurserymeh
thought hat the winters of this Sec
ton were too severe; OF the constant
freezing and thawing would heave the
pits out of the nursery row, and to
avoid the poor root system in particu-
lar of the fall-planted seed, avoided the
fall system of planting altogether, and
adopted the bedding system-puttine
the pits into a bed about four feet
wide and extending it according tc
quantity of seed bedded.
The seed was put in the beds from
five to eight inches deep, and some
sand or soil mixed with them, the1
covered over about four inches deel
with sand or soil and left until the!
sprouted in the spring.

Indians are people of memory only
1t is said that with the advent of the
Hudson Bay company to the terri

dams and since that time, when the
Yukons were a flourishing race, the
disease has killed them off in great
numbers.

The peach, which is supposed to be
a native of Persia and China, was
brought from Persia into Italy by the
Romans, and soon found it's way into
Britain and France, and is supposed to
have been brought to this country
about 1880 by the settlers.
In it's adaptability to The soil and
climate of this country the peach has
as wide a range as any other fruit and
the fruit is considered the greatest
luxury of it's season, writes E. S. Black
in Rural New Yorker. New Jersey had
the distinction for years Of being
one of the greatest peach-growing
states in the country, and old men
have told me of the immense crops
that they have seen grown on the then
virgin soil, and which often had to be
made into peach brandy, as the mar
kets were glutted with the fruit and
transportation facilities were few and
far to reach. Delaware, Maryland,
Virginia, New York, California and all
the western states looked to New Jer-
sey for a supply of peach trees. Muir
serymen in other states o found it
profitable to grow the trees, and many
builders from New Jersey found profit.
able employment among them, so that
now the growing of peach trees, as
with other nursery stock, is not con
fined to any section, and a tree grown
in one section is just as good as that
grown in another, if it was strateG

lncubators and Breeders.

Incubators and brooders cost some
thing; it pays to put them away when
no longer needed. They should be put
away clean and in a dry, clean place;
then, when needed, they will be ready
for use and more apt to give good re-
suits. Disease germs lurk in the
brooder that is put away without a
thorough cleansing and d~isinfecting,
Some of the new breeders are so con
structed they can be easily taken apart
to clean or put away.

O W TO SELL
GOOD VEGETABLES
Prepare Product with Same Care

WilI Soon Have Trade No
One Can Take Away.

The following good advice to mar
ket gardeners is taken from the Min
nesota Horticulturist:
IF you are located near a city
where you al market produce from
the wagon, you will find that If you
prepare vegetables with the same care
that you do fruits, and be honest all
the way down to the bottom of the
basket, you will have a trade that no
one can take from you, and your prod
uce will bring a premium over the
average market. The same rule holds
true if you are shipping to other mar
kets. A packet rightly packed Is half
sold. and is an invitation to buy an
other. It is always advisable, before
planting your crop, to know to some
extent where and how you will dispose
of it. Make all preparation before the
time of harvest. What might be seri'
GUS losses are often avoided by look
ing ahead.
ITO some, a good outlet for some
vegetables is found in the canning
factories. While prices paid by these
factories are not nearly so inviting
as those received from other sources
yet there is some advantage in grow
ing crops for them. If the ~factorie.

expense are saved. To be profitable.
the acreage should be as large as pos.
sible, so that when the gathering
comes it will require steady hauling
to the factories. In this way the ex.
ira help can be fully employed. There
will be no loss of time or crops in
having to stop and hunt for help when
needed, or take chances on getting
them just when wanted"

Examine the Harness.

1t is a good plan to examine the
harness every time the team is hitch
ed up. A horse can be hurt and the
use of him lost for several days or
even months by working him in an i'll
fitting harness. Less danger from run
aways, too.

INSURANCE MEN
 ARE TURNED DOWN


 Jackson. Miss, July s.-(Special )-State Insurance Commissioner Henry Is being bombarded with applications for charters from insurance concerns who would do e matrimonial insurance business. These concerns not only want to issue policies payable when the ceremony is performed, but they ask that they be allowed to go a step further and pay the second install ment when the first heir makes its ap- pearance. The promoters point out to the commissioner the benefits to accrue to young people who contemplate matri- mony. but he refuses to see 1t that way and has again refused to issue them li- cense. It Is estimated that those behind these companies will mandamus MT. Henry in an effort to compel him to ap- prove their charter.
 According to Secretary Charles F. Sco- field of the Mississippi River Western road, the project to build that line from Meridian to Natchez has not been finally abandoned. Despite the unfortunate ex- perience of the promoters with "Victors Ruelens of London and Paris" a bogus French prince. they still have confidence In the feasibility of the enterprise, and will resume negotiations with eastern syndicates to secure the necessary finan- cial backing.

Jackson, Miss, July 9.-(Special)-Gov- ernor Noel returned today from his home in Lexington, where he has been spend- ing several days, and found awaiting him some hundred or more letters from diff ferent parts of the state protesting against the exhibition of the fight pie lures. The governor read them carefully and then tried to look up law under which he could bar them from the state, but failed to find one bearing direct upon the subject. In the event he cannot find authority for interfering in the name of the state he will address letter to the authorities of each municipality. urging them to prohibit the exhibition of the pie lures in their respective towns.
 In discussing the matter he said: Since prize fights are prohibited in the state I think the pictures of this fight should be also. think I have a right to do so, for what is prohibited by law direct should not be allowed in pictures"
