by the conductor and turned over to
the police. He did not have the ap-
pearance of one who was in the habit

PLANT FEED STUFF.
What to Do If Corn Is Ruined ty the
Hot Winds and Drouth.

# you are surc that your corn will
not make something like half crop
there is another chance yet. 1t is four
months until frost comes in this coun-
try and there is all kinds of time TO
make and mature any kind of a feed
crop. SO I would advise the farmers
OF my district, if they are sure their
corn is ruined, and will not make half
crop. to plant in the middle of the
rows of the corn just as soon as the
rain begins If the weather prophets
are correct general rains will begin
about the 25th of June. That will give
ample time to grow anything in the
way of feed. Common Indian corn,
scrgum, millet, kaffir corn, maize or
COW peas will mature all o. X.
SO if the drouth is broken by the first
OF July, there is time to make plenty
of feed stuff for another year. The
cotton crop was never finer and If
there can be plenty of feed made pros
perity will reign.
Your very truly,
A. G. GRAHAM.

been fitted up for storing bananas,
besides this there is a darkened room
where meats will be stored. The re-

On the next floor are four rooms,
al! encased within walls of cork, as.
phalt and concrete seven inches in
thickness. each OF these rooms may
be entered independently of each 9th

will be utilized for fruits and other
perishable stuff. An electric elevator
of three tons capacity has been in
stalled that is labor-saying device
and has already more than paid for
itself. the elevator in use heretofore
was operated by hand and was of lin
tied capacity.
The ammonia was turned into the
pipes this morning and by this after
noon the rooms will be cooled, once
chilled it would require some time af'
