Caring for Grapes.

Rules for grapes culture from the
experiment station record, United
States Department of Agriculture:
The main points in grape culture
are summarized as follows
With a few exceptions grapes of the
Lubrusca species, of which the Con
cord may be taken as the type, are
the most satisfactory for general
planting.
warm, rich, well drained soil is
best for the grape
Almost all vines should be planted
at least eight feet apart.
Strong one-year-old vines are most
desirable for planting.
Thorough shallow cultivation is es
sential
The pruning of the first two years
must be done with reference to the
system under which the vine is to be
trained after it begins fruiting. Dur.
ing this time the vine should become
thoroughly established
The best time for the principal
pruning is soon after the leaves droT
in autumn, but pruning can be done
at any time during the winter wher
the vines are not frozen. Summer
pruning consists of pinching latera
branches in order to encourage the de
velopment Of the fruit and the bearing
wood for the succeeding year.
The long arm, short spur system OF
training is usually the most satisfac
tory for the inexperienced grower
but the renewal systems are highly
recommended.

Origin of the Potato.

The cultivated potato is a native Of
the Chilean and Peruvian Andes, but
extends in original type as far north
as Colorado, where a wild form is
occasional. Wild varieties Of the po-
tato exist in many parts of the world.
but nowhere was it cultivated before
the discovery of the western continent
save in North and South America. 1t
was taken to Europe, probably from
Peru to Spain, early in the sixteenth
century. 1t seems Sir Francis Drake
introduced it into England in 1886,
though Sir Walter Raleigh is said to
have done this year before. 1t was
first regarded as curiosity and so
remained until the latter part of the
eighteenth century, though the Royal
Society Of London in 1863 recommend.
ed it as a possible safeguard against
famine among the Irish peasantry.

Hollow Concrete Fence Post,

Hollow Concrete Fence fcsts.
To construct hollow REINFORCED con
crete fence posts few notifications
of the ordinary mold are necessary,
In addition to the core TO be placed
in the center of the post, writes G. A,
Cook. The mold for an ordinary AKA
inch post feet long consists OF bot
tom, two sides and two end gates, all
Of which are held together by three
iron clamps placed over the top of the
sides after they are put together. The
sides are held to the bottom by small
dowel pins inserted in holes in the
bottom, so that the sides may DO read
lily revolved, leaving the finished post
lying on the base to harden. One end
gate must have two-inch hole In 1t
through which the core may be with
drawn.
The wooden core is constructed of
pieces and is 2 inches in diameter.
Its full length should be ~ feet A
round piece Of soft wood may be
sawed into five strips, so that when
the central portion Is withdrawn the
narrow sides and then the wider sides
may be removed from the concrete
post.
The galvanized iron core tapers
from 2 inches in diameter at the larg-
er end to q Of an inch at the top, for
7-foot post is feet inches long.
This can be made by any tinsmith
from good heavy galvanized iron, and
should be closed at the smaller end.
The mold is fastened together, and
about one inch of concrete is placed
on the bottom before the core is put
in position. After being wrapped
with paper the core should be
passed through the hole in the lower
end gate. The paper covering Will per

PARIS IS PAISLEY MAD.
French Women Have Revived an Old
Fashion in Many New Forms.

Paris has n new craze. She has
gone mad over Paisley. Everything to
wear is made in this well known pattern.
The old fashioned mixture of Paisley
and fringe is shown in most of the shops
in many articles of clothing and other
accessories women use. There are Pals
ley collars, ties and stockings, there are
Toby frlllS of the same pattern and Pals
ley hand bags and sunshades embeIlished
with long hanging fringe. In dress ma
terials there are Paisley silks, cottons,
fouards, chiffons and yelvets, and per-
haps the very latest thing is Paisley
shantung.
In every variety of costume Paisley
is used. The great lady drives to the
Bots in a rich afternoon gown of Pals
ley silk, while the midinette trips out
to luncheon in a skinny Paisley cotton
blouse.
1t is a craze which men have not es-
capped. A Paisley tobacco pouch is the
latest thing TO give to a man, while he
must wear a Paisley cravat, and even
Paisley waistcoats have been seen.

made. The galvanized iron core may
be creased, but the paper is fully as
effective.
The wooden core extends entirely
through the post, and two end gates
with two-inch holes in them are used
with It. The metal core should be
placed in the mold so that the small
er end is about two inches from the
top of the post. After the core is in
position the remainder of the con-
crete can be put in and the post set
aside to harden until the core and
molds can be removed.

Scranton, Miss, Feb. 1.-The Ital-
ian consul at Gulfport, Miss, an
nounced today that he would help
defend Angelo Rinaudo, who shot and
killed Michael Aliusi in a duel near
here, and who is in Jail here charged
with tie killing. The Italian ship
Romego sailed from New Orleans for
Mediterranean ports with the two
principals in the duel as part of the
crew. The two men quarreled and
decided to fight it out. Scranton was
the first port reached and the ship
put in to allow the seamen to fight it
out on land With the entire ship
crew looking on, Rinaudo sent a bull
let through Aliusi's heart. News OF
the spectacular duel did not reach
here until today, and Rinaudo, being
reported not on the ship, officers went
in search of him and soon located and
arrested him. When the Italian con

were literally blown to pieces. The
workings were reached through the

clear the main shaft. 1t is impossible
to determine how much of the main
shaft has caved, and it may be days
before it is cleared and the total

There is little hope that any OF the
men are alive. The company clerk
reports that seventy-nine safety lamps
are missing, and it is sure that a
number of men are entombed. Many
of the miners, however, say that one
hundred and fifty men are missing
most of them being Slavs and Hun
garians. The camp is scene of in
describable horror tonight. While
every able-bodied man is taking his
turn to clear the shaft, the women and
children have gathered about the
shaft weeping and calling for their
loved ones who have not been found.
Experts from the coal camps of the
state have gathered to assist Mem
bers of the first rescue party say
that the effect of the explosion under

are horribly burned.
