this season than last, but some
reverses were recorded in North
Carolina.
The Georgia bright leaf crop
of 92,533,931 pounds brought
$19,295,385, compared with the
1887 crop of 77,S78,000 pounds
which paid growers $15,50O,00O.
Virginia flue-cured tobacco
sales on November l totalled ST.
9t0,718 pounds as compared with
31,156,596 pounds on the same
date in 1887. The average price
per pound in Virginia was slightly
under the 1887 average, but still
was higher than for any other
year since 1884.
The estimates November |
placed the current North Caro-
lima crop at 535, 5,S25,000 pounds
and a 1888 average price of 1886
cents a pound. The North Caro-
lima bumper crop Of 1887 brought
an average price of 23.90 cents
per pound for 595,53O,OOO
pounds.
Tobacco prospects for 1889
were bright. f. Y. Boyd, tobacco
specialist for the North Carolina
State college extension depart
ment, said:
|" eve believe business will be
better in 1889 and that there will
be a swell in both foreign and do
mestic consumption of tobacco,
enough to take care of the sur
plus that will be carried over as
result of the big 1887 crop"
Another autumnal note of op-
timism was found in the Alabama
steel industry. Steel ingot produc-
ton until July, 1888, was far un-
der 1897 averages. September,
however, brought a sharp pickup.
Alabama production this Septem-
Der was 1854 per cent better
than July. Indications were that
the upward trend would continue
on into next year.
Florida citrus growers, al
though confronted by record
crop estimated at 50,000,O0O
boxes of fruit, were optimistic
about the new United States trade
treaty with Great Britain and
Canada. Producers believed much
of the Florida surplus could be
disposed of in duty-free canned

IN NAzI CAMP,
LONDONHEARS
Are Among 62 Well-to-Do
Men Forced to "Run
Gauntlet"

LONDON, Nov. %. (UP).-
The London News Chronicle said
today that II of a group of 62
well-to-do Jews allcGedly were
beaten to death when made to run
gauntlet of "black guards" at a
German concentration camp.
The newspaper vouched for the
episode as an "eye witness ac-
count of the torture and killing"
of German Jews.
The gauntlet scene occurred at
the Sachsenhausen concentration
camp, the newspaper said, and
lasted a half-hour with the guards
beating the Jews with whips, clubs
and spades until ~ of the group
were dead and the remainder un-
conscious.
The supposed eyewitness ac-
count, which the newspaper said
was obtained from sources the
veracity of which are impossible
to doubt follows in part:
"a Berlin police officer and II
policemen arrived at the Sachsen-
hansen concentration camp with
62 hostages to be delivered to
the camp commander. The arrest
ed were mostly well-to-do lawyers,
doctors, landlords. engineers, bus
less men and two rabbls.
"At the gate Of the concentra-
ton camp stood two guards in the
black uniform of Hitlers death
head battalion.
Entering, the police officer
made the hostages leave the motor
coaches and prepared to march
them to the offices of the camp
commander for registration, but
two long ranks of black guards
lined the way with whips, clubs
and spades in their hands.
"The police officer approached
the leader of the troopers and ask
ed free passage. He was met with
the curt reply that he must deliver
the hostages on the spot.

this spring and see for yourself what
charming neighbors they are. Besides,
they attract such lovely butterflies
and perhaps, too, a gnome or two.
The flowers are snowy and develop
along the slender spike. They are
purple or purplish-white, somewhat
bearded at the throat. The leaves are
usually woolly and simple. They may
grow alternately along the stem,
crowded or entire. With the spires
or clusters of bells of purple hue, they
make a lovely sight. indeed.
Now We come to another side of the
foxglove, as the saver of those afflict-
ed with heart trouble To the physician
or pharmacist, foxglove means digi-
tails. This highly important ingredi-
ent is found in the velvety leaves of
the plant. They are gathered and
dried and ground to the finest of
powder, which goes through several re-
fining processes before it is ready for
use
Digitalis has remained one of the
most important heart tonics. It must
be taken under the advice of a physi-
clan who knows your special need, for
otherwise it is extremely dangerous
During the World War digitalis was
needed in great quantities. At that
time, all gardens were searched for
the leaves of the common foxglove. In
the Pacific Northwest there are large
areas covered with wild foxglove. In
this state, the beautiful leaves are
dangerous to grazing cattle. and must
be removed or the cattle kept from
these spots.
Now acres of land are under tillage.
The seeds are tiny. and some one has
computed the number per pound,
which is about 5,8l5, 5,280-and vet
there are seeds much smaller than the
foxglove.

Natures Children
.Foxglove
(Digitalis purpurea).

The soil must be rich and moist to
insure fine large leaves. But the
seeds sown in rows or broadcast come
up in such numbers that they crowd
each other and have to be thinned.
II they are sown in hot-bed or seed
bed. then transplanting must be done
later. Too much freezing kills the roots
but disease passes the plant by, as do
the insects and bugs.
In all, the growing of foxglove for
a commercial venture must be looked
into carefully. An acre yields about
900 pounds Of dried leaves. The need
for this drug calls for IS, 1867 pounds
or slightly more. You can see We are
provided for in this need. Besides,
there Is such an abundance In the
West growing wild that there is little
chance Of scarcity.

Reunion Held.

Preston-Talking to your friends a
couple thousand miles away is hardly
considered an unusual feat in this day
of radio and telephone, but holding a
family reunion with 1900 miles sep
arating members of the family is not
exactly an everyday occurrence in these
parts of Minnesota. When the children
of Mrs. Julia Broken gathered at the
T. A. Broken home in Harmony last
week in honor of their mothers birth
day, it was somewhat unusual when
the telephone rang and over the wires
from Phoenix, Arizona came the voices
of two children not able to be present
to join in the family conversation. The
2,200-mile conversation lasted for %
minutes with each member of the
family on both ends participating.
Those on the Harmony end of the wire
included Mrs. Broken and her thirteen
sons and daughters and sons and
daughters-in-law. On the other end
of the wire in Arizona were two more
children.

needle if he feels SO inclined. Evidence
of his accomplishments is shown by the
fact that even women admit he IS
good, particularly in the field of rug
making. The Berge households are
strewn with his rugs. His masterpiece
is large rectangular rug done in soft
wool, which critical visitors say IS an
exact replica of one priced for $500
With colorful skeins of wool all about
him, Berge bends over a roll of burlap
and rapidly sticks a specially designed
needle into the design in the woof.
Care must be taken that the needle pro-
trudeS through to just the proper depth
and that the wool is drawn through the
upper opening in the burlap. A mis-
take in either of these acts would cause
an irregularity in the rug. When COM
pleted, the back of the rug is shellacked
and lined.
