on Tuesday, Interpreter Nathanson
went west with three carloads OF emf
grants. 1t was the first lot of for
eisners handled by the PENNSYLVANIA
railroad since the opening of the Eu-
ropean war. They were mostly of the
peasant class, and came from parts of
Europe not in the war zone.
In conversation with some friends
the veteran interpreter said
Dig War Trenches
"Emigrants who formerly came to
America to build trenches are now
digging in the war zone. l have been
busy looking after foreigners who
were going back. At intervals there
will be rush of emigrants to the
United States. but nothing like it has
been in the past. II YOU belong to a

Interpreter Nathanson would not

Mr.. r. X. McCuen was the first man
to whom Tolbert gave a detailed

with what Tolbert himself stated or

him probably below the average in in

WAR IN MEXICO

Rev. N. E. Pressly writes very in
terestingly of the conditions in
Mexico for the A. R. Presbyterian.
Extracts from his letters follow:
"There is scarcity of food, corn
is selling at about six poes (dollars)
a bushel, -four at thirty pesos a sack,
rice at fifty cents a pound, beans
at the same price, eggs at twenty
cents a piece, milk at fifty cents a
quart, and other things at CORES
ponding prices. Luxuries can be
had, but at fabulous prices. Just
think of butter at three dollars a
pound, and breakfast strip at three
dollars a pound.
Of Europe's disastrous war, we
know nothing, but the suffering,
though calamitous, is not worse than
the grievous necessity, the fear
of bandits and robbers, and anarchy
that are experienced by thousands
in Mexico. There has been fight.
ing at some places in the state of
San Luis Potosi. Over in Tantima
the troops of Villa are in possession
of the town, and two weeks ago the
Carrancistas demanded the surren-
der of the place, it was refused and
the Carrancista troops replied that
they would take the town, burn it.;
and neither man, woman nor child
would be spared. ,
Hundreds of pedestrians crowded
the roads and trails, old and young,
a sad procession carrying what little
they could, and going to the woods
for safety. The little Indian town
Of twenty-five hundred inhabitants
was depopulated in one night, and
may be in ashes at this writing. 1t
horrifes one to hear the barbarous
and brutal acts of bandits and SOL
diers of both factions.
Here in Tampico, the city is being
fortified, for weeks this has been
going on, as if an attack was expect
ed, and for the past two days many
wounded are being brought from
some point between here and Mon
terey.
In the last four days some 5000
soldiers have passed through here
for Monterey. War, such as we
have had for the last months, is in
describable. The conditions would
not be believed if described"

SALT.
The Crying Need in War Times.

Taken from the Yorkville Enquir-
er, which is republishing news items
from it's war time file.
"wednesday Evening, Nov. 5, 1862
The increase of salt works around
us seems to have the effect of raising
the price of this necessary article.
Every means is used to make it pay
even to selling it by the pound.
Georgia, Virginia and North Carolina
have each made provision for their
people while we are left to the mercy
of the spectators who monopolize
the private supplies that occasionally
find their way to the interior. What
the prices may be on the coast we
know not, but up here they are al
most fabulous, and must soon call
for the interference of the govern
ment. The supply here is quite
limited, and we see but a poor pros
pect for saving our bacon this WIN
ter. Our legislature may do some
thing for us when meets, but 1t
may be they are toe late for many
purposes, unless they purchase in
stead of going into a system of man
ufacture that would require time to
mature. Our friends on the coast
have no idea of the suffering for
salt in the up-country.
Col. McCaw has deposited sack
of salt at The Enquirer office and
another at store of Messrs. Darwin
and Jeffreys, with instructions to
dispose of the same to needy fom-
and Jeffreys, with Instructions to
dispense the same to needy families
in such quantities as may be neces-
sary to meet immediate wants.

commercial peach growing because
the markets within its logical radius
for distribution are already abundant
ly supplied with peaches from dis
tricts which in some important re-
spects are more advantageously placed.
1t Is the current opinion that the
peach should be planted on sandy or
some Of the lighter types OF SOIL
While it Is true that excellent results
may follow the planting Of orchards
on such soils. it is equally true that
peaches do we'll on wide range OF
soil types. including even some of the
moderately heavy clay loans and clays.
But. whatever the type, soil must be
thoroughly well drained to be suitable
for peaches. They will net succeed on
poorly drained soils. 1t follows that
the heavy clay types which are so
hard and impervious that water does
not percolate through them readily are
to be avoided as rule. Moreover,
soil should be moderately fertile. One
very rich in nitrogen is not to be de-
sired as Il general rule since it is likely
to induce an excessive growth Of foli-
age. On the other hand. the impress
sion which is somewhat common that
poor unfertile soil is good enough
for peaches" is erroneous.
In districts in which alkali soils oc-
cur sites should be selected with a
view to avoiding them. While the
peach tree can be grown where there
is limited amount Of the alkali salts.
they cause disaster if present in large
quantities. 1t is safer. therefore, to
avoid them as far as possible.
AS il general proposition site that
is elevated considerably above the sur
rounding areas is to be preferred for
an apple orchard. Relative elevation is
generally Of greater Importance than
actual elevation above sea level.
1t is Il we'll recognized fact. though
one too often overlooked in selecting
sites for orchards. that cold air settles
to the lower levels. For this reason
it is often colder ut the lower eleva-
tions than it is ut higher points in the
same locality. This is what is meant
by atmospheric drainage" The occur
renee of frost in low places when there
is none in elevated areas is thus ex-
planned. For the. same reason peach
buds are often winter killed or the
blossoms are injured by frost in the
spring in low places when nearby Or
chardS Oh higher elevations are injured
much less or even escape entirely.
Where an orchard occupies site that
is adjacent to Il large body Of water
the importance of u relatively high
elevation largely. perhaps entirely, dis
appears. To be factor in the matter,
however. 4 body Of water must be of
sufficient size and depth to have an
appreciable influence on the local
climate. Because the water warns up
in the spring more slowly than the
atmosphere it acts in effect as re-
frigerator, making the temperature In
its immediate vicinity colder than it Is
ut points somewhat distant from it
For this reason vegetation within the
zone of this influence advances more
slowly in the spring than it does out
side Of that zone. The tendency, fre-
quently very marked, Is for the
Of peach trees situated
within the zone to be delayed until
after the seasc9 Of spring frosts.
