BUS///ESS BITS. 
The tools used by Geo. M. Clark in pre¬ 
paring the ground which yielded the record 
breaking crops of hay are made by the 
Cutaway Harrow Co., Hlgganum, Conn. 
A mower knife grinder la also one of the 
products of this factory. It is impossible 
to heat the knife with this grinder if direc¬ 
tions are followed. 
A wEDL-DRiLLiNQ outfit makes a profit¬ 
able Investment for anyone inclined to do 
this line of work. Keystone Driller Co., 
Box U, Beaver Falls, Ra., makes a com¬ 
plete and compact outfit for drilling water 
wells, oil or gas. A 76-page catalogue will 
be sent to anyone Interested. 
With the prospects in sight for the 
largest hay crop in many years, farmers 
will prepare to have their machinery in 
first class order to handle It. No small 
expenditure will facilitate haying more 
than the purchase of a good grinder for 
the mower knives. Ross Bros., Worcester, 
Mass., offer one in this issue. 
The Southern Potato Crop. 
No early potatoes grown for shipment In 
this section, although about double the 
usual acreage has been planted and the 
crop is in good condition. R. m. 
Saxon, N. C. 
The potato crop is very fine this year; 
has not been injured by the weather. The 
stand is over an average; tops are look¬ 
ing better than they have for many years, 
and bids fair for a good crop to this date, 
q'ubers are about the size of hull walnut 
to a hen’s egg. **• 
Cape Charles, Va. 
The usual acreage of potatoes, not very 
large, was planted, but the earliest are a 
poor stand, many having rotted, and the 
crop was further injured by frost on May 
1. Later planted ones not up at that date 
are now much the better, and the crop will 
perhaps be an average one. 1 planted four 
bushels of Early Rose whole last Thanks¬ 
giving Day; they did not come up any 
earlier than February planted ones, but 
they grew faster, and I intend to try that 
again with cut potatoes. f. n. p. 
Rocomoke City, Md. 
The outlook is for a very poor crop. 
The weather has been very bad, raining 
almost continuously since March. The 
acreage has been about us usual, which is 
small in this section. In fact, the outlook 
for anything but grass is very poor in this 
country, j. e. c, 
Greensboro, N. C. 
'i'here is about the same amount of Irish 
potatoes planted here as usual, and the 
crop is about 50 per cent better than usual, 
owing to the rainy Spring. However, our 
crop cuts no figure In the market, as pota¬ 
toes do not do well here, and are only 
raised for local use; in fact, our Winter 
supply always comes from the North. 
This county, or rather this part of it, is 
best adapted to fruit. Sweet potato acre¬ 
age about as usual, but it is early to pre¬ 
dict the crop. j. d. s. 
Leavitt, N. C. 
So far as 1 have seen the proiuipct for a 
good crop of early potatoes Is very en- 
ccuraging. Many lots of them are in full 
bloom, and there has been ample rain 
(still coming down) to make them bear 
well, if we can soon have some genial 
sunshine. The number who grow potatoes 
for market in this section is very limited, 
as they find more money in tobacco than 
in potatoes. Strawberries are large and 
abundant, but are rotting badly for want 
of sunshine. j. e. c. 
Drayden, Md._ 
More Oleo Rogues Caught. 
The Metropolitan division of the Depart¬ 
ment of Agriculture, State of New York, 
reports the following list of oleomargarine 
violations and penalties imposed: 
Ohas. Umla, 3 Alabama Ave., Brooklyn, 
$25 and costs. 
Louis Seifert, 312 Grand St., Brooklyn, $100. 
John D. Behn, 305 Liberty Ave., Brooklyn, 
$ 100 . 
Behn Bros., cor. Crescent and Welden Sts., 
Brooklyn, $100. 
Fred N. Muller, 273 Avenue A., N. Y., $25 
and costs. 
Richard F. Cunneen, 317 Bowery, N. Y., $50 
and costs. 
Ernst Schwaneman, 1356 I’ark Ave., N. Y., 
$25 and costs. 
John Murphy, Brooklyn, N. Y., $25 and 
costs. 
Michael Morlarty, 110 Greenwich St., N. 
Y., $60. 
Wm. Seifert, 286 Smith St., Brooklyn, $50 
and costs. 
I'eter Johnson, 40 Jackson Ave., Brook¬ 
lyn, $25. 
Harry Harris, Jersey City. N. J., $100 or 00 
days in Jail. 
Edward Brock, Jersey City, N. J., $100 or 
00 days in (Jatholic Rroteclory. 
George Warren, Jersey City, N. J., sen¬ 
tence suspended. 
In this list are three wagon cases of New 
Jersey peddlers of oleomargarine who were 
detected selling same in this State. It 
seems to be a new wrinkle for the Jersey 
men to send their wagons into this State 
In charge of small boys, 'i'hls is probably 
the result of the recent heavy penalties 
and term of imprisonment Inflicted upon 
the wagon men, so that they are now un¬ 
able to secure men for their wagons, and 
are resorting to the method of putting 
small boys in charge of them. However, 
the court, taking a reasonable view of the 
matter in the case of Edward Brock of 
Jersey City, who was detected selling oleo¬ 
margarine, he being a small boy in Knick¬ 
erbockers, and while at first inclined to 
suspend sentence. Imposed a penalty of $100 
or IH) days in the Catholic Protectory. In 
the case of George Warren, Jersey City, 
another peddler, sentence was suspended 
for the reason that his employer had been 
detected selling oleomargarine and is now 
serving a three months’ term in Jail, the 
court feeling satisfied that they had reached 
the principal in this case.

EVEll MADE THE TRIP? 
While it lias always been a beautiful 
trip over the Laekawanna Railroad to 
Buffalo, yet the fact has not been so 
generally known as it has of late, and 
the result is that the increase of traffic 
is very large. One of the most talked-of 
pieces of scenery is tlie Delaware Water 
Gap, and it would pay any one who has 
never made the trip to Buffalo by way 
of the Lackawanna to take it and view 
this beautiful spot. Another great ad¬ 
vantage is the shortness of the route. It 
is a fact that the Laekawanna is the 
shortest road to Buft’alo—Insurance 
Times.— Adv. 
The New Horticulture 
BY H. M. STRlNCF^ELLOVf. 
We do not hesitate to say that this is one of the most 
interesting books on horticulture that ever was printed. 
Most reading farmers have heard of the now famous 
“Stringfellow Method” of planting trees, but few 
understand clearly what it is. This book tells the whole 
story in clear-cut, forcible style, which all can untier- 
stand. Not only is the theory of close root-pruning 
carefully explained, but the general principles of garden¬ 
ing and fruit-growing are discussed. Mr. Stringfellow 
is a practical gardener, and he gives his own experience. 
We commend the book to all without reserve. New 
Edition, paper covers, 50 cents.
