The Cane Crop.

After the cold snap of last
week, which cut down to the
ground much of the young cane,
there has been a continuation of
the warmer turn to the weather,
but no further rains have come
as are much desired, in some
sections the need for additional
moisture becoming felt decidedly
stronger than ruling as a whole
through the sugar country.
Through suffering this temporary
loss of the unusual advantage in
height enjoyed by so much of the
young cane, there is a uninimity
Of opinion that as affecting the
final outcome of the crop the re-
cent cold is of no consequence,
for in coming out anew the cane
plant is counted on to grow with.
greater vigor; planters long in
the business refer to the other
seasons in the past when similar
conditions prevailed, and when
in those years they raised some
Of the best cane crops ever pro-
duced.
Since there IL little likelihood
Of further freezes being ex-
perieaced, the sugar planters
now feel at liberty to go ahead
with corn planting, and encour-
aged by the bountiful harvest of
the grain last year, it is to be
that will endeavor es-
pecially to attain another big
corn output, since the benefit of
well fortified with ample
feed supply raised at home is be-
coming better recognized.

Potatoes On Swamp Land.

On black swamp land a reader
wants to know what will make
his land grow potatoes, as it
makes too large vines and small
potatoes. Wants to know If lime
will help. Lime will sweeten the
soil, doubtless, but if there is any
scab fungus in the soil, it will be
helped, too, and the sWeetening
of the soil may make scabby po-
tatoes. Better grow the pota-
toes and then harrow in lime for
q legume crop on the land for
hay. Land Of that nature has
an abundance of potential nitro
gen, but if especially deficient in
potash and phosphoric acid, and
these plant foods are what make
the potatoes, the potash being
necessary for the making Of
starch and the phosphoric acid
for storing it in the tubers.
in making early potatoes on
land, / would use a little
readily available nitrogen,
would mix 100 pounds of nitrate
Of soda, J,5OO pounds Of acid
and 400 pounds of
muriate Of potash to make a ton,
and would use OF this 1000
pounds an acre for early potatoes.
The organic nitrogen in your soil
will answer instead Of any ap-
plication of fish or cottonseed
meal. W. r. Massey. IN Stark

STATE MILITIA IS IN
SPLENDID SHAPE SAYS
GEN. STAFFORD

A lot Of new clothing and
equipment will be asked for
within the next few days by
Adjutant General D. Z. Stafford,
who announced that the state
militia was in such a h~ourishing
condition that he found it incum-
bent upon himself to supply all
the commands with the latest
uniforms and equipment.
we need about 400 new uni
forms and the appurtenances
that go with them, and / will
ask for them as soon as I return
to Baton Rouge, said the gem
eral. The state militia is in a
fine condition. We have just
added another company to the
First Regiment, making it a full
of twelve companies.
The other commands are also in
good condition, and We hope to
keep the militia up to its present
high standard.
7 do not think we will add
any new commands in the city
at present, said the general in
answer to a query as to whether
or not any new companies or
commands would be mustered in
in the city. We have a sufficient

and could not very well take care
Of any more companies.

As France was merely notified of the
fact accomplished, namely, that Ger

Philadelphia, July S.-Two persons
were killed and seventeen others in
jured when the $40 o'clock train on
the Pennsylvania road from Atlantic
City side swiped a local train north
bound at Lucaston, little station fif-
teen miles below Camden, N. J., at
1880 this morning. The dead are:
Thomas Ogden of Lynwood, N. J.,
Forest B. Henry of Berlin, n. J.
The local train had orders to 60 on
a siding at Lucaston, to permit the ex-
press, which is one of the fastest
trains on the road, to pass. Railroad
officials say the accident was due to
the mistake of the brakeman of the To-
cal train, who threw the cross-over
switch instead of the siding switch.
Eye witnesses Of the wreck say the
express train had a narrow escape
from an appalling accident Its
schedule calls for a speed of a mile a
minute. Had the impact occurred a
fraction of a second later both trains
must inevitably have been wrecked
with terrible loss of life.

his car at Cleveland just after break

Taft spoke not of war, but more for

Eleventh congressional district he
talked about the Aldrich currency plan.
Tomorrow at Indianapolis he expects
to talk on Canadian reciprocity.
On the way from Cleveland the
president made nine platform talks.
He talked about the heat and dust and
at other times he argued for a safe

turned to reciprocity and Canadian
reciprocity, which he said would bring
more prosperity. In a speech to the
old soldiers the president declared that

not a wild enthusiast or a blind optim-

ward to a complete restoration of
peace even if arbitration treaties are
adopted. He said the morality Of ma
tions improves only step by step,
making the forming Of arbitration
treaties, not only a step, but a long
step in securing world peace.
Taft told the bankers that Aldrich' 9
plan could not be regarded as a poll
tical measure, and should have the
support of men of all political parties.

New Haven, Conn, July st Is
generally believed here that big up
heavaI is impending in Yale athletics.
The belief is quite as general that an
upheaval is necessary. Yale has lost
every series in the four major sports
this year, except football, and in this
its team failed to defeat Harvard
and was defeated by Brown and West
Point. For the first time the track
team was defeated by Princeton, the
baseball nine lost both the Harvard
and Princeton series and the crew was
defeated by every eastern university
of any Importance on the water except
Columbia.
1t is understood that two Of the in
cidents Of the reforms will be the
coaches, John Kennedy of the crew,
and Billy Lush Of the baseball nine
