AGRICULTURAL
TOPICS OF INTEREST RELATIVE
TO FARM AND GARDEN.
TO TBEVENT TKEES FKOM SPLITTING,
It seems to be the nature of some
varieties of apple trees to grow in
crotches, or forks. With some varieties
this makes but little difference, as the
forks are solid and never split, but
with others, such as the Belmont
H**\k« Date), the fork is never solid,
and when loaded with fruit is apt to
split, and n fine, large trees are

done wh it the tr 9 isu»siiaJU the sprout
will grow with the tree, and make a
strong brace, and the larger the tree
grows the stronger will become the
brace.—Farm and Fireside.
SHADE FOR COWS.
Some farmer,! take the fact that a
good cow is always a good feeder as
meaning that she ought always to be
eatins It is on this mistake that they
base their objection to shade for cattle
in summer, “If there is a tree in the
lot they will lie under it all
when they ought to be eating, ” is a
remark of such men. Heat
flies reduce the milk yield, and
is charged to the shade rather than
the fact that under a tree withscat

HINTS FOR DAIRYMEN.
Bulky food should always be fed
concentrated food, to avoid pos¬
discomfort and injury from th«
No calf should be raised for dairy
from a cow of weak constitu¬
or one with organic disease.
The wise dairyman provides soiling
crops to patch out the dry pastures
during the summer time.
It is poor economy to turn a herd
of cows into a large pasture and allow
them to roam about all day, when all
they get is exercise.
Uncleanliness in milking, not cool¬
ing the milk quickly after milking,
bad fodder, bad air in stables and disease
in cows are causes of tainted milk.
Stunting the calf’s growth is run¬
ning into debt for the future.
You can prevent a cow’s kicking by
buckling a strap tightly around the
body just forward of the udder.
There is a vast difference in milch
cows. A dairyman in Delaware County,
N. Y., has cows in his herds testing
from one-half of one per cent, ol
butter fat to eight per cent.
The Babcock test is revealing the
true condition of things in the dairy.
It costs less to feed and care for one
cow than it does for two; therefore
every farmer who is keeping two cows
and getting really but what one should
produce is losing money.
The best dairymen practice the best
economy in feeding when they feed all
the cow will oat up clean and no more.
Jersey cows surprised their owners,
even in the cheese test at Chicago, in
that they produced the largest product
in competition with the Guernseys and
Shorthorns.
WHEAT OR RYE.
Those who practice sowing rye
should consider if there is not as much
or more money in raising wheat. On
properly under-drained and well fer¬
tilized land, there is no reason why
winter wheat should not stand the win¬
ter equally as well a8 rye, and as wheat
is usually worth from twenty-five to
forty cents more per bushel than rye,
and on good fair land will yield as
many bushels per acre. The grain of
wheat will sell for as much as the
grain and straw from the rye, and one
has the wheat straw to feed and put
back upon the land. In the vicinity
of paper mills or large cities where the
straw is sold for various purposes, rye
is raised in larger quantities than id
other sections, but it is in the end a
, losing . practice . as the , entire crop
is
taken from the field and from the
farm, and unless commercial fertilizers
are heavily used the land is positively
deteriorating in value each year. Jt
is supposed that every farmer is run
ning his farm for the money there is
in it and not for the sake of having
something to do, hence the many who
now raise rye almost exclusively,
would without doubt be the gainer if
they would sow half the intended
amount of acres to wheat instead oi
rye, applying all the intended sowing
of fertilizer to the wheat crop. One
can do the plowing, harrowing, drill¬
ing and gathering in half the time,
and should obtain quite as much from
the wheat crop as for both the rye and
rye straw on twice the amount of land.
Pesides one has the use of the extra
i r acres for pasture, or some othei
crop, presuming that the five acres be
sown to wheat.—S. Barrington, in
American Agriculturist.

Briefly Epi'omizei
What Is Being Done to Allay Finan¬
cial Depression and Bring Relief.
j 58th Day, —The session of the sen- !
ate Saturday lasted for only six hours,
It was a session of much interest,
Various important amendments to the
rules were offered and went over till
Monday. The silver purchase repeal
bill was taken up at 12:45 o’clock and
the vice president set about disen
tangling the parliamentary twist into
which the senate had got itself Friday
night over the poiut whether Mr. Du
bois should be excused from voting on
the question of allowing Mr. Peffer to
have a document read at the clerk's
desk. By a vote of 29 to 37 the sen¬
ate refused to excuse Mr. Dubois.
The question was finally decided fa¬
vorably and the document was accord- |
ingly read as a part of Mr. Peffer’s i
speech Mr. Peffer then yielded the
floor to Mr. Jones, of Nevada, who
addressed the senate in opposition to
the bill. The chamber was crowded,
After about an hour spent in answer
ing questions and meeting objections,
Mr. Jones reverted to his prepared
s'peech, but was soon again involved
in an argument with Mr. Aldrich.
Taking advantage of a break in this
discussion, Mr. Voorhees asked per¬
mission of Mr. Jones to make a mo¬
tion to adjourn, which was granted.
Continuing Mr. Yoorhees said:
* . In the last seventy-seven hours
this body Las been in session fifty
eight hours; we have been discharg¬
ing a great public duty. With the
concurrence of and upon consultation
with friends of the pending measure,
I have a motion to make at this hour.
If there is anybody who thinks that
the friends and advocates of this bill
have surrendered, or have it in con¬
templation, I desire to answer in the
language of the immortal hero of salt
seas, John Paul Jones, that wo have
only ‘begun to fight’ and with this I
move that the senate now adjourn. • •
The motion was agreed to and the
senate at 1:05 o’clock adjourned till
Monday at 11 o’clock a. m.
59th Day". —The eleventh week of
the session of the senate opened Monday
morning with a largo attendance of
senators, all the leaders of the forces
on either side of the silver fight being
in their places ’ and holding confer¬
ences. Tlie taking up of the silver
purchase repeal 'oi 11 was delayed by ac¬
tion on the house joint resolution as to
the suffrage at the finst municipal elec¬
tions in Oklahoma territory. It was
amended by a proposition that no one
shall be authorized to vote or hold
office who is not a citizen of the Uni¬
ted States. An amendment to strike
out the word “male,” so as to allow
the right to women, was voted down—
yeas, 9; nays, 40. After some rou¬
tine business the silver bill was
taken up, and Mr. Jones, of Nevada,
continued the speech he began Satur¬
day.
60th Day. —As soon as Monday’s
journal was read in the senate, Tues¬
day, objection to it was m ide by Air.
Dolph, because on one ro. LI call it did
not show tho presence of t.'.vo senators,
Messrs. Allen and Kyle, although they
were in the chamber Vo and although lie
called attention that fact. Discus¬
sion immediately sprang up on this
point, Air. Dolph pointing out tho
ridiculous attitude presented by the
senate drifting along in the current
of endless debate. 5e declared
that the committee on rules ought
to present to the seno to a reason
ble rule limiting debat,e; that tho
presiding officer should, niter a dis¬
cussion of two or three days, put it to
a vote, and, if it were adopted by a
majority of the senate the presiding
officer should put it in force. In the
course of the d bate. Air. Morgan and
Mr. Washburn got into a personal
controversy, and Air. Morgan, turnin (T
to liia opponent, said: “I am respon¬
sible for every word I say, either in
this chamber or out of it. Do you
understand that?” At another point
Air. Alorgan said: “I intend before
this debate is over to move to strike
out the enacting clause of tlie pending
bill and insert one repealing the en
tire Sherman act. I will see where
you repealists then stand. >>
61st Day. —In the senate Wednes¬
day morning, the pending question
being Mr. Dolph’s motion to correct
Monday’s journal, Air. Alorgan re
sumed the floor. Referring to the
supreme court’s decision, upholding
Speaker Reed’s counting a quorum,
he said the house had rules and a ore- ’
r.r,rL, ctderit r .+ for litedIs action, while the ,
senate had not. It was not possible
for the president of the senate to take
n a similar similar course r-nnrse without with,.!,*- its l being „
unconstitutional. .ur. Morgan claim
ed that th« minority only wished

the provisions of the Geary Chinese

uninteresting. It was participated in
by Messrs. Maguire, of California;
Outhwnite, of Ohio; Everett, of Mas¬

ley, of Pennsylvania; Mahon, of
Pennsylvania; Williams, of Missis¬
sippi, and Hilburu. of California.
Without disposing of the bill, the
house, at 5 o’clock, adjourned.

morning the house resumed the con
sideration of the McCreary bill to
amend the Geary law.

proceeded to cons der the bill dispens
nig with proui oi "jaty as a prereq
»te to being restored or admitted to
the pension rolls by persons who oth¬
erwise would be entitled to pensions.
Mr. Burrows claimed that the bill
would repeal the section barring from
pensions all who engaged in the re¬
bellion. Air. Oates denied this. The
most important feature of the bill, he
said, was the clause permitting survi
vors to secure the bounty lands they
^ earned. Mr. Burrows cried:
“Call the hell hounds off the track of
the Union soldiers before you restore
men to the pension rolls who are false
to the Union.” Mr. Oates replied that
the last republican pension committee
recommended the pending bill and
that Mr. Burrows didn’t understand
its provisions.
61st Day. —No bills of importance
were reported from committees in the
house Wednesday. The transaction of
routine business was proceeded with.
A bill wa-t passed amending the stat¬
utes relating to fees of United States
marshals, clerks and commissioners.
Mr. Geary then called up the New York
and New Jersey bridge bill. DeWitt
Warner, of New York, and Mr. Geary
at last came to blows in a dispute over
an amendment to the bill, after which
it was passed. The house then resumed
consideration of the printing bill. A
proposition to publish 400,000 addi¬
tional copies of the “Horse Book,” ex¬
cited a good deal of discussion. They
cost 60 cents per volume. A compro¬
mise providing for 75,000 copies was
agreed upon. At 5 o’clock, without
completing the consideration of the
bill, the house adjourned.
AFTER THE HIGHBINDERS.
A Big Scheme on Foot to Send Them

A San Francisco special bhvs: The
Chinese Six Companies now appear to
be eager to take advantage of the
Geary act before the McCreary bill
becomes a law. The Six Companies
are anxious to get rid of the highbind¬
ers end worst criminal element among
the Chinese in San Francisco. To this
end the Six Companies are aiding the
police to arrest, convict and deport
highbinders. Tuesday sixty two Chi¬
nese were arrested by the police as
vagrants. 'Ihe agents of the Six Com¬
panies and police detectives inspected
the whole crowd at the city prison.
Fifteen of the culprits were released,
as tliey were found to lie hard-working
Chinese. The remaining forty-seven
will be arrested under the Geary law
and an attempt made to deport them.

It was announced in Paris Tuesday
evening that AI. Gounod lind died
from the stroke of apoplexy which he
suffered Monday, at his residence at

credited, as the physicians had stated
that his death was only a question of a

report was premature. M. Gounod
lingered, though, in a comatose con¬
dition uutil Wednesday morning, when
he died.

ROVAL BAKING POWDER CO., 106 WALL ST., NEW-YORK.
To Clean Turbid Water.
Dr. Leffman recommends to house
wives a simple means of precipitating
turbid water by the solution of alum,
O ne hundred and thirty grains of
ebrystalized alum dissolved in one
pint of water will produce a large
quantity of the purifying liquid, as it
is only used in the proportion of one
to two grains of alum to a gallon of
water. That would require three tea
spoonfuls of the solution to every two
gallons of the water. After stirring it
in let the water stand a few hours,
and it will be perfectly clear and
ready to be poured off from the thick
deposit in the bottom. If it is then
filtered it will be in good condition
for drinking.
Even without filtering it will be safe
to drink the water if it has not stood
very long, as it has bet n found that
the addition of the alum greatly re
duces the number of bacteria. Tho
taste is not affected, as the alum de¬
composes tho water and sets freo corn
pounds that attach themselves to tho
muddy elements in the water and
cause them to settle. Ibis remedy is
not for contaminated water, which
should always be boiled.— New York
Post.

Somehow, this tinkering with the
currency and the great fear that our
dollar wasn’t an honest one reminds
us of the epitaph found on an old
tombstone: “I was well, wished to be
better, took physic and died.”— Ex.

I Syrup”
must say a word as to the ef¬
ficacy of German Syrup. I have
used it in my family for Bronchitis,
the result of Colds, with most ex
client success. I have taken it my¬
self for Throat Troubles, and have
derived good results therefrom. I
therefore recommend it to my neigh
bors as an excellent remedy in such
cases, James T. Durette, Earlys
ville, Va. Beware of dealers who
offer you ‘ ‘somethi ng j ust as good.
Always insist on having Boschee’s

Embalming in Egypt.
It is estimated that the number |

2,000, when the art is B C

to A. D. jjj
when it ceased, amounts to 420,000,009
Another estimate places the totii
number of mummies at 741,000,008
but this is based upon the extentiuorf
tho beginning of the practice to aamcli

is very profitable to the mod®
