APPLAUSE OF VARIOUS KINDS
Always Easy to Distinguish the Gen.
uine From the Perfunctory or
the Manufactured.

With nearly every successful ad-
dress applause plays a leading part.
There are several varieties Of ap-
plause. The common variety is the
perfunctory handclap-a poor, weak
contribution which makes butterfly
look long-lived in comparison. A sec
ond variety is the charity offering of
an audience to the oratorial beggar.
The speaker ends profound decla-
ration with a pause which is next door
to an open declaration of war II the
audience doesn't come across. Or he
works himself up in series Of men,
tai paroxysms which impels the audi
tors to rush to his rescue before it Is
too late. All spellbinders pocket this
variety of applause as real coin. OF
course It Is nothing Of the kind.
The genuine issue In laudation Is q
spontaneous and volcanic eruption Of
approval and delight. 1t blows out

relied upon to control wilt and fungi

be applied to the diseased portion Of

The only control measure that has
succeeded is the use of varieties which

Each year thousands of bushels Of
strawberries 60 to waste In the larger
producing centers of the United States
because Of low prices or some adverse
condition. In many regions Of the
South 20 to Is per cent of the crop is
never gathered, because the prices to-
ward the end of the season are too low
to justify picking the fruit. This is Q
great loss that should be avoided.
With the increasing demand for straw.
berry products, such as crushed fruit,
jellies, preserves and marmalades. this
loss can be greatly reduced.
Within the last few years some Of
the manufacturers of food products
have been putting up fresh strawber-
ries In large quantities for use at soda
fountains and in the manufacture Of
ice cream. This industry can be de-
veloped into one of great importance
to the producer, manufacturer and con-
sumner. Several large manufacturers
buy surplus Strawberries and put them
up In the field. while others ship the
fruit to their home factory. One Of
the best methods of handling the fruit
Is as follows: Wash the berries thor
oughly In cold water, put them into
tight barrels with sugar in about equal
weights, LOAF in refrigerator cars. and
ship to a cold-storage plant where they
can be held until needed. Sometimes
the berries are crushed before being
put into the barrels, but in most cases
they are packed as nearly whole as
possible. When ready for use they are
taken from storage and manufactured
into the various products. II the fruit
is in good condition at the time 1t is
placed in cold storage It can be kept

The lower estimate Is about the av.
erage for most sections of the South,
while the higher figures cover the ex-
treme cost of production. The average
cost in Florida Is between these two.
but nearer the higher estimate. It
should be borne in mind that in these
estimates the interest on the invest
ment and all labor costs are included.
Where the grower does not fertilize or
mulch his crop the cost should be
lower than in the estimates. It IL the

Story Of the Hermit.
Near the summit of Old Badly there
is a perennial spring whose cold and
sparkling waters leap from beneath
its very crown. About these gushing
mountain waters there fingers the
story Of the hermit. It is said that
when he first reached the summit,
searching for a cave In which to live.
he was almost famished on account Of
thirst. With his staff he smote a rock
and from it sprang this beautiful
stream that has not ceased to flow
since that day.
Though many thousands Of feet
above the valley. numbers sought his
cave. Augustiniani erected fourteen
huge crosses, the ruins of which still
stand as silent monuments of his de-
votion and zeal From among his curl
GUS and devout visitors he formed a
society called the Brotherhood of the
Holy Cross. His only exaction was q
pilgrimage in May and September.
They must ascend the peak and say
prayer around these crosses.
In the May pilgrimage of 1867, he
made a farewell speech that crushed
the hearts of his followers. It was
then he revealed to them the hand Of
destiny in his call to the land of Old
Mexico. Before his departure he Wis
tied Father Baca of Las Cruces. who
presented him with gold for his long
journey. He sought meditation for
the night in the Oregon mountains.
Taking his farewell of Father Baca. he
said:
Tonight l will be in my cave and
will build my last fire on the peak to
tell you good-by. will pray the rosary
and l want you to do likewise with
your people on the roofs Of your
houses. II you do not see the fire you
may know that / am dead and may
come tomorrow and get my books and
property"
No fire was kindled on the peak that
night. The next day q company as
cended the heights. Amid the very
clouds they found the body Of the good
old hermit, stricken through with
many an arrow flung from the bows Of
the bloody Navajos.

TWO GOOD CROPS NEGLECTED.

Feed Surplus to Stock.

More pumpkins and cushaws should
be raised. Many do not recognize the
value of these crops. Pumpkins when
properly cooked and served are most
excellent foods. They may be used
for pies or cooked and served az
fruits. They are appetizing.
Cushaws are quite similar to sweet
potatoes In taste and food value. The
yield of cushaws is generally large.

Cost Of Growing Strawberries.
The cost of growing strawberries
varies between wide limits. depending
upon the locality and the methods of
culture. In most sections of the South
the average cost Of production il SIS
to $50 per acre, but in some cases the
cost is very much higher, especially In
Florida.
