Flower, a farmer who has grown cotton for 35 years, made the fo llo w in g s t a t e m e n t re g a r d i n g tbe val ue of Brazos water for irrigation and fertilization, writes the Waco (Tex.) c o r r e s p o n d e n t o f the Galveston Daily News: “I selected two acres of rich valley land capable of producing a bale of cot ton to the acre. Both acres were treat ed alike as to preparation on the soil, planting and In all other respects. The same men cultivate^ the cotton on these two acres, plowing and hoeing right through without discrimination. The seed selected was first class, and the two acres were planted the same day. One acre I watered from the Bra zos river, and the other took its chances of rain and drought. On the Irrigated acre I made 1,125 pounds of ginned cotton, and on the other I made 0S0 pounds. The water was taken from the Brazos river with a pump driven by a second hand six horsepoi* er steam engine. The water was pump ed from the B’ azos river straight to the cotton p a tcl, as I have no storage tank. “During the present year the water of the Brazos river has lJeen charged with silt three-fom ilis of the time, each bucket of water containing several ounces of solids, the chemical parts of which I am unable to give. I turned the water on the irrigated acres once in June, three times in July and lt» I— in August. In September I applied the water only once. Each time I turned it on I gave the ground a thorough soak* ing. Of course I made mistakes. I am inexperienced in the science of irriga tion. A neighbor of mine, wbo made observations during the course of my experiment came to the conclusion, as I did, that Brazos river water while an swering tbe purpose admirably of irri gation is a better restorative than any other fertilizer. The well known fact that* bottom lauds subject to overflow never wear out demonstrates fhat prop osition. In the Brazos valley below Waco the floods of this ytjar deposited six* inches of silt on the soil and in creased land values largely. When T stand on the bank of the Brazos and watch the highly colored water flowing past me toward the sea. I feel that a prodigious waste is in progress. I am sure that It would more than double the products of Texas farm yield to the intelligent tiller of the soil.” O UR FR U IT S IN ENGLAND. Oregon and California Apple* Flood t h e B r i t i s h M a r k e t * . The Evangeline, the new fruit boat belonging to the Furness line, recently brought thousands of barrels of Cana dian apples to London, and they were all in splendid condition. The striped- Gravensteins and the crimson cheeked Baldwins looked as fresh as when they were pulled from the trees in the An napolis valley. The successful importation of fruit from Canada is due, the manager ex plained to a London Daily Mail repre sentative, to rapid transit and to stor age between decks ventilated by natu ral means, not by electric fans. With a carrying capacity of over 39,900 bar rels, or 91*,900 bushels, of apples alone the Evangeline will largely increase the supplies of the United Kingdom. The fruit she broughj made the highest prices that have been reached this sea son, and therefore fruit shippers on tbe other side will he encouraged to export as much good fruit as they possibly can. Fruit from the vast orchards of Ore gon and California has also flooded London and the large provincial towns. The imports for this season have so far been phenomenal alike in quality and quantity. Mr. Garcia of a London firm of apple merchants said that the Im mense crop of California and Oregon ?nples will be of great advantage to consumers, .vlio will, be able to pur chase fine fruit at moderate prices. California Newtown pippins, be said, are coming in extraordinary abun dance, and the public will be able to buy them at 3d. or 4d. per pound. * In other kinds of fruit, such as plums and oranges, the California trade is grow ing with great rapidity. # — ------------ M o to r T o u r * P o p u l a r In E u r o p e . The French Automobile club is ar ranging a jaunt in Tunis from Feb. 22 to March 19, and the automobile clubs of the chief Italian towns propose to unite in a fortnight’s tour a t the end of April through northern and-central Ita ly over a route of 1,925 miles, says the London Express. Foreigners will be welcomed, and British automobilists could not wish for a more delightful region in which to spend a holiday. The Italian lakes in April are superlatively lovely. The Belgian Automobile club, too, is contemplating a big trial, begin ning at Brussels, passing through Na mur, Spa, Liege, Antwerp and Bruges and finishing at Ostend. The date is not yet fixed, but the proposal is snre to be adopted with enthusiasm now that King Leopold has taken the move ment under his wing. C a p e C o lo n y ’* E x p o r t * . The value of exports of all kinds from Cape Colony, including raw gold, diamonds and specie, for the first nine months o f this year (1900), is £5,2S0,133 as against £21,255,925 for the .corre sponding period o f 1899, says the Lon don Engineer. The large decrease of £15,975,790, o r say roughly 75 per cent; Is of course mainly accounted for by the decrease in the exports of Trans vaal raw gold through the stoppage of woifc at the Hand mines by the war.

Captain James McGrath, who is con nected with tlic Chicago postoffice, fell from a street ear in Washington some years ago and was severely injured. He was confined to his bed for a long time and came out a cripple. He sued the street car company for $25,000 and got a verdict for $5,000. Senator Mason, was his attorney. The m atter was settled the other day by the payment of $2,000 to Captain McGrath, says tbe New York World. He took his check and went to the cap- itol, found Mason and said: “Billy, here’s what I gof for that accident. I have indorsed the check over to yon. Take out your fee and hand me the balance.” Senator Mason looked at McGrath and said, “That leg of yours never will get straight will,it, captain?” “No,” replied McGrath: “I am a crip ple for good, I guess.” “And $2,000 is a measly little hit of money for such a thing;” mused the senator. Then he looked up suddenly and asked: “Got a cigar?” McGrath had one. The senator light ed It. Then he began to talk about Illi nois affairs. “But, senator,” interrupt ed McGrath, “what’s your fee for all the work you have done?” “My fee?” said Mason. “Why, this cigar's my fee. Go along home with your $2,000, Jim, and God bless you.” The senate has adopted red fights as signals, and the new display is exciting the interest of the lafest visitors,* writes the Washington correspondent of the New York Times. The occasion for the adoption of red lights was the desire on the part of the sergeant-at-arms of the senate to meet the convenience of many mem bers of the house. Owing to the fact that the senate has been of late much of the time in executive session mem bers of the house who had business a t the senate traveled across the building, only to be refused admission when they had reached the senate door. Colo nel Ransdell thought of a way to save all this unnecessary travel. The main door of the senate chamber can be seen from the main door of the house if vis itors are not too numerous. Colonel Ransdell had three electric lights in closed in red glass bulbs placed right over the main door of the senate. When the senate goes into executive session, a doorkeeper turns on the lights in these red lamps. A member of the house who starts out for the senate at once sees these red lights and may postpone his visit until the lights are turned off. » Manhattan pool, a game that has been known elsewhere for several years, lias at last struck thK f ^ writes the Washington re, ^ of the Pittsburg Dispatch, i 1 threat ens to divide favor with the fad for collecting Indian blankets and to drive southern statesmen into a mania some thing akin in virulence to that which afflicts the middle west on tlie« subject of Belgian hai’es. Chasing a pool ball up an alley and hoping it will knock another one into a hole numbered 200 doesn’t appear to be the beginning of an absorbing sport, but it is. Judge Bartlett of Georgia, one off the best lawyers in the house -of represent atives, the man who had a book throw ing argument with Representative Brumui of Pennsylvania several years ago, is the expert among the states men. He knows all the technical phrases necessary to coax the red ball into tbe 300 basket, called the palm garden, and the white one into the 200 hole, which makes the highest possible count. L E U X l.

The flag that was taken down had only 34 stars in the field. It had hung there for years and was badly discolored. Not to be outdone on the flag question, Representative Neville of Nebraska, a fusionist, displayed em broidered on tbe bosom of his white shirt immediately above a three carat diamond a miniature American flag. The shirt and the flag attachment at tracted much attention from members. Minister Wu’s only ornament is a large diamond fastened la a skullcap which he invariably wears. He was in an F street car recently, coming from the capitol, where he had been a not very interested observer of the centen nial ceremonies, and fell into a doze, writfcs the New York World’s Washing ton representative. The first thing he did on opening his eyes was to put his hand to his head. The diamond was gone. In front of him was a rough looking fellow, who began to move to ward the doo'r. Wu half arose, a t the same moment.pulling off his cap. The diamond was there. He fell back in liiaseat relieve!. The big stone had dropped over his left ear. It is said that the gem is almost invaluable not only because of its Intrinsic value, but because of Its bistory. w l IViKML c-U n T .—QUEENS COUNTY— O ih e cu.umhiii Mutual Building and T.oan Association o t New York, Plaintiff, against The Vi oodbaven Junction Land Comp&nv, and others.
