reply a lady gave to tbo question:
"Do yon plant Vick's eeedb?" Her
answer was.' "I always plant Viik's
seeds in the front yard, but ,w get
cheap seeds in the buck yard, which
I know is a mistake.
It pays to plant good seeds, and
we advise Our friend, who are thiuk
ing of doing anything: in this line to
send 10 cents for Vick's Floral Guidt
for 1S96. This amount may be de
ducted from the first order. James
Vick's Sons, Rochester, N. Y., are the

Undoubtedly California offers more
genuine attractions to the pleasnre
traveling public than any other part
of the American continent. The
fame of its climate is world-wide, and
it .is sought even by Europeans, who
find it more churming than tbeir own
Southern slopes. To Americans its
worth is too well known to necessi
tate a description of the many ad
vantages to bo enjoyed.
Personally conducted tours via
Pennsylvania Railroad will leave New
York and Philadelphia, February 12
and March 11, 1896. In addition to
the many other points of interest via
ited on the first tour a stop will be
made at New Orleann for the Mardi
Gras festivities, and four wteks will
be allowed in California. Oa the sec
ond tour four and one half weeks will
bo allowed in California.
An addition to - the magnificent
train heretofore used for these tours
is a through Pullman compartment
car. " -
The car, which will ba tho very
best that the Pullman Company can
supply, will contain nine inclosed
compartments two drawing rooms
and seven stite rooms and will be
attach ad to the special train at Jer
sey City and run through to San Die
go, Cal., on the first tour, and San
Francisco on the second.
This will be the first car of its
kind to be run en a trans continental
train, and that it will be thoroughly
appreciated by participants in tho
tours is evidenced by the fact that al
ready several of the compartments
have been reserve J.

Beds of rich phosphata have been
found m Tuscarora Valley, Juniata
ceunty Pa., about 16 miles west of
AWHintGWD, in a line of hills between
McCoysville and Reeds Gap. Six
veins of fertilizer rocks and pebbles
and nodules have been found in the
phosphate belL At Reed's Gap, a
tunnel is being pushed in on the
Tein, and is producing two grades of
rock, one for home use by the Penn
sylvania Phosphate Company, show
ing 40 per cent, phosphate and one
vein of higher grade suitable for for
eign shipment. The first car load of
which will go to The York Chemical
Works. The value of phosphat3 as a
fertilizer can be readily understood
when the fact is roont:nnPi that the
ash of wheat is compisad of 45 to 50
per cent, of Phosphoric acid and 30
per cent, of potash The discovery
of phosphate in this county will prove
itself to be of great value to the
peach grower as a cheap source of
much needed fertilizsr.
The agricultural world and the
business world, will open their eyes
wide over the announcement that we
have just made, that ia one of the
vallies in Central Pennsylvania, in
Juniata county, phosphate rock and
pebbles and nodules, as rich and rich
er than the bones of animals have
been discovered, and are now being
mined. The best percentage of
phosphate in bone according to Lio
big is 55 per cent. The percentage
of phosphate in the best seams and
pebbles and nodules in Tuscarora
Valley so far unearthed, is 20 to 59
per cent, and upward. What this
means for Tuscarora Valley and Jun
iata county may be conjectured when
tha facts is stated that Pennsylvania
pays annually 5 to 6 million dollars
for fertilizsr. The formation in which
it is found, is well known to the Geol
ogist. H reads it like a book. He
has described its peculiarities of fos
sils; its flattened and rounded and
angular nodulep; its red and brown
and white and black colors, and he
has spoken of its sands as the frag
ments of the material from tha Azaic
rooks below the lower Silurian form
ation, broken and rolled andrcdepos
itcd with ocean sediment on another
Geological horizon in tho inlets of a
zig zg shore of a prehistoric sea.
Ho reads the formation in that way.
But with nil that the professional
geologist had no knowledge that this
peculiar zig zg geological horizon is
rich in places, with a fertilizing ma
terial as valuable as the fertilizer
made of the boces of animals. The
discovery cf phosphate in thi.-i form
ation will be a surprise to the geolo
gists of Panpsylvaaia.
Tuscarora Valley is indebted to
Colontl Thos S. Mcorbhcid, bnildor
and proprietor of the Tuscarora Val
ley Railroad for tho discovery of
phosphate deposits here in Centrr.l
Pennsylvania. The Colonel is a civil
Epgineer, and some years ago hwa
witb a Company of Eagineers that lo
cated a routa through the Valley.
That was before dame fortune had
smiled propitiously upon him.
Fortune helps the man who
helps himself, and when the youag
eagiueer found himaelf in Florida on
professional busiuess, Le learned
from a geologist that certain pebbles
and nodules and fossils in that land
of oranges, swampi, gnats and
ulligatoi, were rich iu phospate.
That was the golden opportunity
that fortune presented and .Voore-
bead availed himself of it and became
a pioneer in the phosphate business
in Florida. At this time the output
of pebble phoeohste in Florida
amounts to millions of dollars.
Tho chemists of the pest knaw of
tue exictsnco of phospatoa in bones
en i ashes and under thoir advice
ground bones of animald and ashes
of wood have been naed from time
out of date for fertilizing purpose
by agriculturists who are acquainted
with the secrets of nature. One of
the great qualities of lime is found
in the amount of ashs that is dis
tributed with tho lima whn it is
spread on land, and the action of
hme on vegetable matter in tha soil
adds to cr stimulates fertility, but
mere ia no fertilizing prooertv in
lime itself. It will form a chemical
combination with coarse vegetable
matter in tha soil and in that way
make plant food. It is different with
pebble and rock and bone phosphates.
Ihey contain plant food that is im
mediately available.
The money that built the railroad
of 27 miles from Port Royal to
Blair's Mills, was made by Colonel
Moorensad in Florida phosphates.
ri6 stiL holds an interest in the bust
ness in that Southern State. Since
the discovery of phospates iu peb
bles, it bus been discovered in certain
kinds of rocks. The pebble is only a
rounded weather and water worn
piece of rock, and geologists since the
discjverj of pvbblo phosphates have
directed their attention to the strati
fied rocks to find tho valuabla mate
rial They found it in certain kinds
of rocks ia several of the Southern
States, and wherever found it has
proven itself a source of profit. Phos
phate is a shy thing, but where
found 13 valuable. .
Colonel Moorhead's geological
knowledge served him well. - He had
a distinct recollection of the forma
tion of locks in tho Tu-jcarora Valley
in Juniata Co. It was no dream of a
d.'eturbed sleep that told him that in
Tuscarora Tlley, Juniata county,
the phosphate rocks await the in ! us
trx of man to mine and pulverize and
redistribute them over the land for
man's good. He came back to Juni
ata and built tbo Tuscarora Valky
Railroad, near where it will tap the
phosphate rocks, which in time will
ts sent to all parts of the cauutry.
114 has organized the Pennsylvania
Phosphate Company and will enlarge
his Phosphate Plant in Tuscarora
Valley to correspond to the rapidly
growing bntiness that is shoving it-
sell upon him. A branch of tbe T.
V. R. R , will be built from Honey
Grove, five miles to Reed's Gap to
facilitate the transportation of the
phosphate from the mints that are
now being opened along the McCoys
ville and Reed's Gap Phosphate Belt.
Hon. J. C. Crawford at Read's Gap,
has a vein of 3 feet on. his farm and
has taken a great interest in the de
velopment of the phosphate belt in
his vicinity. The establishment of a
phosphate fertilizer plant in Tusca
rora Valley, means a saving of a num
ber of dollars per ton to our home
people, and maans nvann far th
raw material, and revenna far tha la
bor expended in mining and prepar
ing- ii ior otnar localities. From
present appearance' it will not be
many years till it has become a great
industry along tha belt where tha
material is found. There are indica
tions of phosphate at Bealetown and
at Warble, and it bas bean found
within two miles of Port Royal on
the farm of George Groninger aad
on the farm of GeorgsF. Goodman.

LETTER OF EXPLANATION.
Tha following letter explains it
self: East Sales, January 7, 1896.
Mr. B. F. Schweier. Sir. I this
eve., saw in your Newspaper, dated
December 18, 1S95, a piece about me
being arrested for assault and bat
tery and mayhem, and Meyer s arm,
throat, Auger and thumb being badly
bitten by me while we were having a
fight in my store. Now I want you
to oorrect this part. . I was arrested
for assault and battery, bightiiig W.
G. Meyers in the thumb, finger and
arm. And he isn't hurt very much
either. I want you to understand
that, for he hailed in corn fowder the
next day. '
The throat was'nt touched with
my mouth.
Now I don't want to be charged
with mayhem nor for biting Meyers'
throat for it isn't correct. You had
belter correct your mistake in your
next paper. Yours Truly,
C. D. Markle.
