crease of So So per capita, 55 cents was
due to increased imports of silk, 90
cents to packing house products, 40
cents to vegetable tibers, % cents to
coffee, 20 cents to wool, l8 cents to
tobacco, II cents to all fruits, 10 cents
to cocoa and chocolate, and cents to
vegetable oils.
Import prices showed some marked
changes. Cheese rose from cents a
pound in 1851 to 10 cents a pound in
1908, and potatoes from 80 to 70 cents
a busheI during the same period.
Manila hemp, imported direct from
the Philippines, was valued at S76 a
ton in 1862, when first recorded sep
arately among the imports; it has
subsequently more than doubled in
price, being rated at Sill per ton in
1908. Philippine sugar, on the other
hand, despite the improvement in
grade, fell from 80 to IT cents a
pound during the fifty eight years
under review, while Cuban sugar de-
clined from $50 to 30 cents pound.
Among the spices, pepper advanced
from 3.5 to rs cents a pound, while
nutmegs fell to II cents pound, less
than fifth of the 63 cents recorded
in 1851.

imports of Farm Products.

Washington, D. c., Feb. 5.-Farm
products imported into the United
States during the fiscal year 1907-the
year of highest record-amOunted in
value to to nearly $627, 600, 600. The
imports for 1908 we're valued at $780,,
600, 600 in round numbers, and the
average for the five years 19O1-1905
was trifle over $455, 600, 600. These
and other interesting figures appear
in bulletin recently issued by the
U. S. Department of Agriculture
which reviews our imports of farm
products during a period reaching
back to the middle of the last century.
The farm products imported may be
divided into two general classes, ~
those which compete with products of
farms in this country, and ~ those
which do not SO compete to any con-
siderable extent. The first class, en-
bracing such items as sugar, tobacco,
hay, and hides and skins, makes up
little less than half of the total. The
principal items of the second class
are silk, coffee, tea, sisal grass, ma
Mia fibre, jute, bananas, cocoanuts.
and Peruvian and Egyptian cotton.
By comparing imports with exports
it is found that for five years 1901
1905 our average exports of cotton,
grain. and grain products exceeded by
STA, 600, 900 our total imports of prod
ucts of the farm.
Imports of agricultural products in
creased much faster than population
during the period covered by this re-
view. In the period 1851-1855 these
imports average in value S2.71 per
capita; during the five years 19011905
the average was 1857. OF this in

The Leaven Of Lime.

Owing primarily to the humidity
of the climate, the drenching, the
washing, and seeping of the land by
the persistent rains of Fall, Winter,
and Spring, there is usually an in
sufficient quantity, and indeed often
an entire absence, of either lime or
potash in the soils OF the Pacific North
west west Of the Cascade mountains.
The need of lime IN the soils of
Western Washington and Oregon is
insistently and urgently pointed out
by no less an authority than the De-
partment of Agriculture of the United
States government.
History shows that the value Of lime
as a fertilizer has been recognized for
literally thousands of years. Latin
writings prove that Inning OF the soil
was practised by the Romans hun
dreds of years before the birth OF
Christ, and the practice has been con-
tinued throughout the history of ag
riculture.
Lime in the soil is not merely
food, stimulant or tonic-it acts as
digestant, solvent and neutralizer
of acidic or sour soil. 1t is radically
beneficial either chemically or physi-
cally, or both.
Sandy soils or the soils formed by
the disintegration of granite rocks
are most likely to be deficient in lime
The best way to determine whether
or not your soil needs lime, potash or
other fertilizer is to send sample of
it to the State College of Washington,
at Pullman, Washington, and have it
analyze. This will cost you nothing
but the postage. and will give you the
exact knowledge of your soil, what it
lacks and how much and what kind of
fertilizers you should use.
Lime is cheap and 1t is a home pro-
duct, thousands of tons of it being

Care of Strawberry Plants Be-
fore Setting.

1t is very often the case that plants
are received several days before the
ground is ready for setting. Since the
plants come tied in bundles and pack
ed in damp moss it is very necessary
that they be opened and spread out
to prevent molding. The only safe
and economical way is to heel them
in. Select we'll drained riece of
land, remove the trash, if any, and
spade up deeply. Level off the soil
and cut trench deep enough to ad-
NIT the roots without doubling up.
One side of the trench should be near
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1910-03-01

ly perpendicular. Lay the plants on
the perpendicular side OF the trench
so that all of the root system comes
below the surface, but not so deep
that the crowns may be covered. In
the latter instance the crowns will
rot if allowed to remain in the ground
for any length of time. Spread out
the roots and place the plants SO that
they barely touch. Fill up the trench
with fine soil and pack down firmly
with the foot. Be sure there are no
air spaces left among the roots. Be
sure that the roots do not extend
above the ground. If there is any dan
ger of the plants freezing, cover over
with light coating of straw. Do not
put it on very deep as the plants are
liable to be smothered.

per- The man with the long mustache grasped his
hand and passed on.
That's francesca Crispi, l remarked to Orsni.
He replied, with slight tinge of irritation didn't
suppose you knew him
De Rudio said further that, although it has been
shown who hurled two of the bombs, it had never
been established who threw the third. He left the
inference that it was Crispi.
HINTS AT CRIsPI
After describing the confusion following the first
and second explosions, he concluded:
'Pieri arrested before the attempt, during
those terrible moments safe-in prison. Who there
fore, hurled the third bomb? l leave this question
to the researches of timd historians.
Bomb throwing on crowded street, with intent
to murder obnoxious potentate and with COM
pete indifference as to the lives of innocent per-
sons, is not amiable crime and yet assassination
Tor political cause is not put iii the class with
other murders. For example, in the case under
mention Queen Victoria induced by the in
fuence of the London Times to intercede with the
Empress Eugene to secure pardon for De Rudo.

way to this country, where he procured a
commission in the United States army, where his
services of notable character. l

his mount by Sioux brave, but managed to shake
himself loose, reached the shore and hid under
the thick chaparral for nearly 48 hours, when
