A FATAL BOMB EXPLOSION.
-Four Killed and New York Tenement
House Wrecked.

New York, July 4.-Three men
aud a n were killed to-day
when a dynamite bomb, said to be
the most powerful ever used in this
city, exploded in IN apartment at
1886 Lexington avenue, tenanted by
Industrial Workers of the World.
The upper part Of the siX-story tene-
ment house, in which the bomb was
being made, was wrecked.
A score of persons were seriously
injured and much property damage
was done near the scene of the ex-
plosion.
Those dead and those who escaped
injury in the apartment included l..
w. w. members who were to appear
for trial Monday in Tarrytown, n.
Y, where they we're arrested when
they went to the village to make
demonstrations outside the Pocantico
Hills estate Of John d. Rockefeller.
AS soon as one Of the bodies of
those killed in the explosion had
been identified as that of Arthur
Caron, n Of the Tarrytown defend
ants, the police began an investiga-
ton Of the explosion on the theory
that the bomb was being constructed
by Caron and others for possible use
at lIc i. w. w. nearing In 1afry-
town Monday. There have been ru-
mors of threats to Tarrytown Off
cials.
Late to-day the police escorted
from the office of Emma Goldman's
publication, Mother Earth, to a police
station a group of agitators, includ-
ing Marie CAM, arrested some time
ago for threatening to shoot John
d. Rockefeller, Jr.
Cross examination disclosed that
all the eleven Tarrytown defendants,
out on bail, met here last night with
Alexander Berkman, anarchist, and
others, to devise a way to aid the
persons facing trial Monday. Pres
emit at this meeting, according to
statements to the authorities, were
Carl Hansen, a member Of the stag
of Mother Earth, and Carl Berg, car
penter, a Tarrytown defendant.
Hansen was blown to pieces in the
explosion. Berg is missing and is
counted among the victims. The
other person is known to have been
a cigar maker, who occupied an
apartment adjoining the one in
which the explosion occurred.

Late Cabbage in the South,

This is from South Carolina:
please tell me what kind of Sc I'd to
use to get ~hard-headed cabbages in
Winter?"
| know nothing better than a good
strain Of the late Fiat Dutch. In
your section SOW the seed in a rich
bed early in August. Then see that
the plants never suffer for lack of
water, but keep them growing
strongly. Get good, strong plants, set
in heavily MANFRED land in late Sep
TENDER, and keep these growing
strongly by side applications OF
nitrate Of soda and rapid and thor
ough cultivation. They will head in
December, and to keep them in good
condition turn the heads over to-
wards the north, and bank the soil
well over the stem and the lower part
or the head, as these are the tender
parts. The head towards the north
will be shaded from the winter sun
that might damage it when frozen.
In your climate they will keep well
in this way, and the same method is
the best to use for collards.

The Pig-Eating Sow.

A reader wants 10 know what caue-
eded his "Sow to eat ler pigs end is
there a remedy?"
When a gov eats her pigs Il il
petty good Droof that she is not in
good condition. Possibly a consti-
nated SOW, or one with q d~isordered
digestion from am caTse, might in
some cases eat her pigs, but in prac-
tica)ly all ca2@s we believe she is
brought to the Condi;ion where she
does this unnatural thing from a lack
O. q properly balanced ration. We
are almost ready to believe that a
SOW with green stuff and sufficient
protein in the ration never eats her
pigs, except possibly after they are
dead. Sows will sometimes eat their
pigs that die from some other cause
when they will not attack, kill and
eat their own pigs.
The remedy is easy: See that the
SOW gets plenty of exercise; keep the
bowels open, preferably with green
feed, and balance the ration so that
the SOW will have been getting all
the materials which her own body
n the bodies of her unborn pigs
e to maintain health and proper
growth. Possibly protein from ami
nal matter is better for this
but any protein that the hogs like
will probably do about as well. At
any rate. ~tankage, which is a waste
product Of the packing houses, fills
the need exactly. If one part of
tankage by weight is mixed with six
to eight parts Of any grain, even
corn alone, for two weeks before the
pigs are born, there is very little dan
e of the SOW eating them. Skim
milk will serve the same purpose and
is probably just as good as the tank
age. In fact, we believe a good c1o-
e pasture will serve the purpose
equally well.

Buy Mares Instead of Mules.

Duy NIaTcS InSUelu Oh mules.
Occasionally | see articles in papers
advising people to put their money
into stations, as the most economical
and speedy way to raise horses of
greater value, and to raise colts from
the mares we have. / do not wish
to disagree with or dissent from this
recommendation. In my own limit
ed experience | have :ound that colts
are always very much like dams in
confornations, action and disposition.
] have n IA colts from 10 diff
ferent mares, only one of which is
registered; others, grades and monde
scripts. There are 10 different fires
represented; three German coach,
three standard, two Pcrcheron and
two unknown. About half of .hesa
stations were registe cd, others very
nigh grades.
Everyone of these coils without .
single exception has been almost ex-
actly like then dams in form, ac-
ton and disposition. There has been
more variation in color than in any
o'her particular. A white dam and
bay sire produced a sorrel colt. A
pair of black mares by a light bay
stallion raised dark bay colts. a colt
from a blind mare has good eyes at
Is years Of age, another from a mare
with good y is blind at four years.
The offspring OF the honest, true pull
ers, when harness is first put on
them and they arc told to go, move
right off without trouble; those from
bakers never will press the collar
hard.
The generally conceded superiority
Of the mule over the jimmy seems to
suggest the same thing.
1t seems to me that the wisest
thing to do to get proper farm teams
is to buy the best mares you can get
instead of mules. I would rather
have a pair Of Perchercn or high
grade Percheron mares weighing 3d.
OOO pounds or over, If sound and
all right for a farm team, than any
i2ir of mules that ever wore harness.
If you have mare" OF that type,
whether you raise horses or mules,
when mated to good sires, you will
obtain good results.

SCORE OF PEOPLE ARE HURT.
Fourth Of July Excursion Train in
Head-on Collision.

Macon, Ca, July A Fourth of
July excursion train from Jackson
vile to Atlanta, running as the sec
ond section of Georgia Southern and
Florida train No. 2. crashed head-on
into the Macon and Birmingham
passenger train leaving here at 4.3O
O'Clock on a 30-foot trestle at Tam
worth, Z miles south Of here, Thurs
day afternoon.
At least three and three
men are seriously injured and more
than a score of others badly hurt.
AS the trains came together, a pas
senger ieaped from one of the trains
down the embankment, ran to a
farmhouse and telephoned to the
railroad office to send all the doctors
and nurses o~btainable to the scene.
He gave no further information.
The railroad people could not err
ify the report, as the nearest tele-
graph station Is four miles away, but
sent the train.
One woman with four little chill
dren is perhaps the most seriously
injured. Her name has not been
obtained. The little children cried
for their mother as she was carried
from a coach and placed on a
SIlelcner ana hurried TO the hospital.
According to Charles Russell, a
printer, who vas on his way from
Jacksonville to Macon, the trains
we're not running faster than fifteen
or twenty miles an hour, otherwise
there would have been a heavy loss
Of life.
He said most of the persons seri-
ously hurt, besides the women, were
injured in jumping.
Both engines were driven together
so they are like one, but were not
thrown off the trestle. A car load Of
beer, on the head end of the Macon
and birmingham train, was COM
pletely demolished, and the d%estruc-
ton of this light car doubtless
helped to save the passengers in the
heavier cars. Most of the seats in
the coaches were stripped from the
floor, however, and a general panic
among the men,, women and children
followed the crash.
Conflicting orders are said to have
caused the trains to meet on the
main track.
