Trenton, N. Information was

Money Is Shipped from New

Circulation.

New York.-When the steamship
Panama, bound for the port of Pana-
ma, sailed from her pier in the North
River she carried coins to the value
of over $4,000. which are destined
for Nicaragua, and form part of
project of putting the currency of that
republic on a new and solid basis
The coins are packed in some sixty
four boxes and twenty-five drums"
They are entirely copper and silver
They will be transshipped across the
isthmus and thence by steamer to
Managua. the capital. on the west
coast
The coins and paper money as well
will be put in circulation. and will
gradually replace the old deprecated
paper currency of the country. In
the course of the next few weeks over
100000 in money will be shipped to
Bluenelds. on the Atlantic coast, so
that the money will be put into circu-
lation practically simultaneously. At
about the same time a load OF bank
notes issued by the new National Bank
Of Nicaragua will also be shipped to
the country
Not only will the general value OF
the ,Nicaraguan currency be changed
in the course of the next few months
but the denominations of the currency
will be entirely altered Hitherto the
standard coin OF the country has been

RESTORE OLD MEETING HOUSE

Boston, Mass.-lf those British dra-
goons who sailed away from Boston
1877 years ago could return to the
scenes of their riding exploits they
would probably recognize the Old
South meeting house as 1t has emery

The meeting house narrowly es-

1872 as well as a few years later,
when an association was hurr.edly
formed to prevent its being supplant-
ed by a business block. The success

in bringing out the ancient features of
the old statehouse, farther down

ly prepared and your plants In hand
and we have reached the important op-
Grafton Of setting out the plants.
Use the dibble to make the opening
in the soil and to close over the roots
Of the plants, Just as you would do II
you were setting tomato or cab
bage plant. and the work will be done
neatly and, with dispatch.
Cultivation should begin as soon as
possible after the plants are set in the
ground, and this should be repeated
every eight or ten days thereafter If
the weather remains clear. Whenever
it rains, however. you should be in
your strawberry field as soon as soil
conditions render it possible to do so.
But never cultivate the soil before 1t
will crumble when disturbed. Soil con-
ditions always should determine the
time of cultivation. One thing that
never should be neglected is the ten
dency of the soil to form crust. Here
are some of the desirable results OF
CIVILIZATIONS: Cultivation prevents the
crust from forming on the soils surf
ace and destroys all weed seed while
they are in the terminating stage.
Continuous. vigorous growth is OBJ
tanned only when the digestive organs
of the plant are in a healthy condition.
To keep the digestive organs In a
healthy condition we must keep bac-
terra active. To keep bacteria active
we must supply them with an abund'
ance of air; and to supply air we must
cultivate. Cultivation forms dust
mulch, a dust mulch retains moisture,
moisture dissolves plant food, plant
food makes active roots, active roots
build up a big foliage, big foliage
makes perfect digestion, and perfect
digestion develops a heavy fruit bud
system and keeps up a continuous
vigorous growth.
When the Season 10 Over.
Let us add that the grower should
never fail at the last cultivation In
the fall, to run a narrow furrow down
the center of the spaces between the

Some growers prefer to cultivate
their plants by the hill system. Others

pacted so that the plants may rest
in firm and close fitting garment Of
earth. While it Is true that the roots
OF plants must have air, 1t also is true
that they must not be given too much
air, and unless the loose, coarse sand or
sandy loan is compacted either by
rolling or floating, the roots will be
over supplied with air. However, roll
ing never is done If the soil is at all
wet. To do so means the caking of the
surface, which is one of the things al
ways to be avoided
Just the reverse treatment is true
of clay soil so far as compacting goes,
for 1t Is the nature of clay to COM
pact itself, and instead, therefore, of
rolling the soil, we need to pulverize
Thoroughly before the plants are set
and stir it frequently while plants are
growing in order that the process of
decay of the vegetable matter in the
soil may be normally maintained.
Therefore, cultivation should be deep
er in clay than in sandy sofls. AS a
