DYNAMITE AND TREES.
Explosive Is Recommended to Give
Vigor to the Orchard

Explosive Is Recommended to Give
Vigor to the Orchard.
Until recently "A stick of dynamite
was about the last thing fruit grow
er would have thought of taking along
when he went to plant young trees
Now however. according to an Eng
fish agricultural journal. science Is
urging that the explosive be used in
the planting as an effective means Of
hurrying the trees growth and making
it yield more fruit
When an explosive is employed in
stead of spade the soil is shaken up
and assured for comparatively wide
area beyond the hole actually required
for the tree.
Experience has shown that trees
planted in ground prepared 10y eXplo
sivcS make much more vigorous and
rapid growth than when planted in tn
ordinary way. Some trees have begun
bearing after four years. while others
similarly situated, but spade planted,
did not yield fruit until six years.
In the case of existing orchards little
can be done in the ordinary way to
aerate or render the soil more perviou~
to the roots and moisture. but a small
cartridge inserted ut some depth below
the tree or Il larger one exploded ut n
depth of three feet or so below the
surface and midway between trees
planted about fifteen feet apart has n
beneficial effect in loOsening the soil
without iniurirg the trees.
The roots have less resistance TO
overcome. the soil is aeratcd. the mois-
ture retaining properties improved, and
a new lease of life is thus given to an
old orchard

MARKET GARDENING.
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

Nearly all of our inland towns and
cities are poorly supplied with aspara-
gus. This crop when properly man
aged may be produced proftably on
any good, ordinary farm land. \ little
science put into the production eld
selling of this crop will bring a return
of $500 or more to the acre. Here is
an opportunity perhaps for one of the
boys and girls.
Real early tomatoes are nearly al
ways profitable, and they are so easy
to grow. The essentials of success are
a good variety. like Earliana, seed
sown not later than March /, plants
grown in pots in hotbed or greenhouse
and good care in the field.
Early potatoes and sweet corn also
afford good opportunities in some com
munities. These crops. too, do not re-
quire great skill. Heavy clover sod
which provides the very best condi-
tons for field corn, is equally good for
early potatoes and early sweet corn.
In the future in all probability IA
larger percentage of the vegetables
consumed in our centers of population
will be grown more and more remote
from the cities and very largely by
general farmers who follow a definite
system of rotation. the vegetables fol-

WINTER FoRETHoUeHT.

A good soldier looks to his
rifles care before going into bat
tie. There is n time of prepara-
ton before he goes into the ac-
tual battle. There ought to be a
time of preparation before we
get into the campaign of another
crop year. The time to make the
preparations is before the actual
beginning of the seasons work.
How about the tools, the weap-
ons of the farmer? Were they
put away in such a good condi-
ton that they will be ready
when the first days blowing is
to be done? Dat sowing is not
so very far away. and this will
he the first occasion to use the
breaking plows, the disks. the
harrows and the drills. Are all
these implements in good shape?
Are all the parts in place?
If we were all the sort of farm
. erS VINO 90 everything according
to rule and plan we would put
things away in the dry every fall
and winter in such good condi-
ton that there would be no ne
cessity OF thinking about sharp
ening shares, tightening bolts
and replacing broken and miss
ing parts. But in actual farm
ing we are pretty likely to neg
lect such things and put them
off to be done during the winter
Naturally, we forget all about
them when they are out of the
way. "Out of sight out of mind"
is the rule Farm Progress.

lage to the great city and port of
commerce that she is today, therefore
am earnestly interested in her fur
Their and future growth and develop
ment, but this can never be accom-
plished if the state of affairs charged
exists and is allowed to continue.
Therefore, ] have q suggestion to
make, one that in my opinion should
meet with the hearty approval of the
city commissioners under the circum-
stances and one that I am absolutely
sure will be readily accepted by your
paper and also the Evening News.
/ propose that the twelve gentle
men whose names appear below be
requested to act as a committee of
twelve and that the city commission
ers be requested to acquiesce in this
proposition and that they render all
the assistance possible in allowing
them to investigate thoroughly the
affairs of the city.
If the commissioners are honest and
the statements are untrue then they
should be only too willing to court
thorough investigation for then they
have nothing to fear and it will be the
means of generating them in the
minds of the public.
am sure the committee of twelve,
which / have named, will be accept
able to the people, as the committee
is composed of gentlemen whose
honor and integrity is above reproach,
their business ability is unquestioned,
and they are among the largest prop
erty holders in the city, whose lnowl-
edge of municipal affairs peculiarly
fits them for the purpose I have pro-
posed.
They are as follows: J. B. Mcneil,
L. Hilton Green, VIM. Fisher, F. F,
Bingham, John A. Merritt, Max Bear
H. G. DeSilva, Joseph Riera, P. K
Yonge, A. M. Avery, J. S. Reese and
J. E. Taylor.
Now, in conclusion, further sug-
gest that The Journal and the News
put this proposition up to the city
commissioners for an answer. Now
let's go to it and clean up this muddle

however, or when the manure itself is
spread at greater rate than Is tons
to the acre, some damage to crops
may result, Large quantities Of
manure are often used by market
gardeners and others, and there is
always danger Of carelesEness in APP
plying the borax. The use Of the
more expensive but safer hellebore
is therefore recommended for the
treatment Of manure. Borax is re-
commended for all other refuse in
which flies may lay eggs.
Scientists who have been working
for years to eliminate the fly are con-
WINGED that the use of one or the other
of these simple measures is public
duty wherever manure and refuse ex-
list. Sanitarians, however, strongly
advise the removal of refuse heaps OF
other unnecessary rubbish or breed
ing places for flies. In breeding
places which cannot be thus disposed

results are obtainable in a community

All Not Lovely With
the Duval Board.

Evidently all is not lovely with the
board of county commissioners of
Duval county, where the newspapers
have been charging that the board
has been operating affairs of the
county to the benefit of the individual
members. State Auditor Amos has
been over in Jacksonville for several
weeks and has completed his report.
Of the findings the Palatka News of
recent date contains the following:
Estate Auditor Amos, after a
thorough examination into che doings
of the Duval county board of commits
sioners, has made a report to Gov.

which, considered as the operations of
a gang of cheap grafters, does them
only scant credit. The majority of
this board who were banded together
profted more than they evidently did
without increasing the indignity of
citizens after the exposure. Men who
go in for graft have no reason to ex-
pect sympathy from the rank and file
when they fail to go the limit. AS a
result of this exposure the represen-
tative citizens of Jacksonville are in
dignant to a degree rarely seen in
that city. A large number of them
gathered in mass meeting at the board
of trade rooms on Monday night to
express their indignation, but unfor-
tunately, owing to the presence of
Gov. Trammell, only fewof them
were enabled to do the subject justice,
