WOBL?'S F?1B HOBTiGULT?RE.
Extensive Pomol?gica! and Nur?
sery Exhibits to Made.
By Frederic W. Taylor, Chief of the
Department.
The Fruit Growers, *and Horticul?
tural Societies both State and local are
taking great interest in^tbe plans that
are being made for the fruit exhibit in
?he Horticulture building. The fact
that there is to be practically twice as
much space devoted to this exhibit at
St^Louis as there^has been at any
former Exposition is encouraging news
to them.
Many inquiries from individual fruit
.growers and local Horticultural Socie?
ties concerning space for a fruit ex
jiibit have been received by the d?part?
ement of Horticulture and it seems that
a general statement of the method of
securing space is of interest.
The space wili be secured by an offi?
cer representing 'the** State Comm j s
sion of each state and all exhibits of
Ji?s character will be under the man?
agement of the State Commissions un?
less there should be a State that does
not have a commission in which case,
some other arrangements will be made.
Fruit growers in making an exhibit
of fruits are assured that they will
not lose their idenity by an arrange?
ment of this kind, for it will be re?
quired that all exhibits be plainly
marked, showing the name of the
grower and the locality where the fruit
was produced. This "will be of great
Tame from an educational standpoint
as it will give all who are interested
in studying fruits definite information
as to the locality where the fruit was
produced.
3?ot only are visitors who are study?
ing fruits|heiped by an arrangement of
this kind, but practically all visitors
are more I interested in the exhibit
..when theyjknow definitely the local?
ities where all the fruits were grown.
It is important'that fruit growers
everywhere begin at once to prepare
to grow fruit for exhibit purposes.
Sufficient plant food should be supplied
to enable the trees to bear perfect
specimens and this should be followed
throughout the season with the most
thorough cultivation.
Thorough cultivation will hold the
moisture in the soil which will be
available for the use of the treees and
niants in development of perfect speci?
mens of fruits.
The thinning of fruit should not be
neglected. This is an important con?
sideration where it is desire to grow
.perfect specimens. In doing this
work it is advisable to leave only such
\ specimens as promise to be large and
perfect and also those that are not
shaded by foliage
States that are planning to exhibit
must have a sufficient quantity of fruit
* in cold storage so that the space allot?
ted to them will be entirely covered at
the time of the opening of the Exposi?
tion, and in order that they may have
a sufficient quantity in reserve in stor?
age to keep the space covered until
the 1904 crop of fruit is available
A circular on cold storage of fruits
will be sent out from the Department
of Horticulture in good season giving
the latest'information obtainable con
. corning that subject.
It is intended that a collective ex?
hibit of Nursery stock from all sections
of the world will be made in the De?
partment of Horticulture of the
Louisiana Purchase Exposition. This
arill afford a splendid opportunity for
?nrserymen. Botanists and Fruit
Growers to study the individual
varieties and types represented. From
an educational standpoint, the value
of such an exhibit will be appreciated
"by all interested in Horticulture.
It is also expected to have a collec?
tion on the sewer varieties of grapes
in bearing, especially those that have
been produced by crossing. These
will be planted the present spring so
that they will be in bearing in 1904.
A collection of vari ti es of strawber?
ries will be planted the present spring.
These will be confined in the new
varieties. A part of these will be new
varieties that have bees produced by
a careful system of breeding for the
parp?se cf obtaining varieties posses?
sing certain characteristics.
In the nursery exhibit, ? collection
of nursery trees affected with crown
gall and other diseases as well as trees
infected with wooly aphis will be
made.
The Stomach Is the Man.

cause it cannot transform the food he eats
into nourishment. Health and strength

Constables Must Keep Sober.
Columbia, March 13.-Chief Con?
stable Hammett received his commis?
sion today and announced two ap?
pointments, those of J. W. Seay and
J. K. White, of Spartanbnrg, to be
constables. His first order to con?
stables prohibiting them from using
liquor, is as follows :
.Columbia, March 12, 1903.
To Division Chiefs : On and after
this date the use of intoxicating
liquors by members of the State con?
stabulary force will not be tolerated.
Any constable against whom the
charge of intoxication shall be made
will, upon conviction, be suspended
thirty days for the first offence and
upon conviction of the second offence
he will be dismissed from the service.
You will communicate this order as
quickly as possible to the various con?
stables under vour directions.
W. B. Hammett, Chief Constable.
FINANCIERING.
Cleghorn's friends always insisted
that he had the making of a financier
in him, says Puck. Accordingly,
when they read in the paper that Cleg?
horn was in jail, they were in nowise
surprised.
Cleghorn, it seems, formed a stock
company in oil. He got out a mil?
lion shares, of a dollar each, causing
them to be quoted at the modest price
of five cents. Then he borrowed
$50,000, and with it paid% dividend
of 5 per cent. At once the stock rose
to par, and Cleghorn sold out, at a
profit of more than $900,000.
After that he bought him a racing
automobile, and in due course was
locked up.
"Just what I always thought would
happen," remarked one of Cleghorn's
friends, with a quiet laught.
Preston Garland celebrated his one
hundred and fourth birthday at
Morristown, N. J. ?Until recently he
was a constant reader of the newspa?
pers. Garland is sexton of the Afri?
can Methodist Church there, having
served in that capacity for the last six
years, and is a member of the board
of trustees of the church.
President Samuel Spencer denies that
he will retire from the Southern rail?
way.
Stockholm claims the largest school
house in the world, which has ac?
commodation for 2,S70 children. In
the basement are 100 bath rooms,
where the children are required to
bathe if their teachers think they are !
not taught habits of cleanliness at
home. Soap and towels are furnished
free by the city. A wholesome dinner
is furnished to poor children at noon
in all the public schools if they need j
it, as in Norway, which insures every j
child at least one warm meal each |
day. - I

Wall street is on the verge of another
i money stringency and the gamblers
are naturally looking to the Treasury
of the United States for relief. In fact
they would even go so far as to hold
up the Panama canal treaty, if there?
by they could keep the fifty million
dollars purchase money promised to
the United States of Colonmbia for
the concession in the treasury, where
they can get at it by a mere apeal to
Secretary Shaw. Wall street plays
with values like a child with fire and
when it finds itself about to be burned
it cries for help. Let any country busi?
ness man, farmer or laborer get into
financial straits because of reckless
management or riotous living and he ;
eau split his throat crying for aid be?
fore Washington gives him relief, and
why is Wall street of more importance
than any individual, except to furnish
campaign funds for the Republican
organization?

PAINE'S CELERY
COMPOUND
Does a Wondrous Work for a Lady
Who Was Almost Crazed with
Pain and Suffering,
It is well known that terrible rheumatism,
sciatica, and neuralgia cause more helpless?
ness, acute suffering, and agony, than any of
the other diseases that afflict humanity. The
great medicinal virtues of Paine's Celery Com?
pound make it the only trustworthy specific
for the cure of all forms of rheumatism and
neuralgia. Thousands of strong testimonial
letters from the most prominent people of the
land, prove that Paine's Celery Compound
has banifced these terribly fatal troubles when
all other treatment has failed. Mrs. Mar?
garet Bethel, of Biainerd, Minn., after thirty
years of agonizing tortures had a desire to end
her life, if it was the will of Heaven; she al?
most prayed for the time to lay it down.
Heaven-directed, she made use of Paine's
Celery Compound, and is enjoying true life
once more. She says:
"For thirty years I have been a great suf?
ferer from neuralgia in the head, and also
with rheumatism in the whole body. I began
taking Paine's Celery Compound anti soon
found I was much better. Before taking the
Compound, my life was such a burden that I
almost prayed to lay it down. I was bedfast
every two weeks with horrible pain in the
head, back, and neck, until I was almost
crazed. I am able to do harder work and
more of it today than for twenty-live years. I
am really enjoying life again, thanks to
Paine's Celery Compound. I am satisfied
that my life has been prolonged many years
by its use."
