HORTK'VLTTRAL hints.
At a recent meeting of tin Minue
sota Staff Horticultural Society the
following suggestions, among others,
w re made; Native shrubs are worthy
oi cultivation. Asparagus should be
more freely cultivated. The bush
bean has not been found profitable.
For blight on potato vines it isrecom
IS ruled to spray with Bordeaux mix
tijro when the plants are eight inches
high and once or twice afterward. Hut
nnitine little bails of cotton with hi
mlphide of carbon and placing them
in the runs of the pocket gopher will
tot op that pest. Thorough stirring of
the ground is better than mulch for

VALUE or BOXES FOR EOOLTRY.
Poultry breeders do not seem to
fippreeiate the great value of bones for
their fowls, and but n limited number
ever make use of them for that pur-
1" No matter whether tho birds
are confined or not they are sure to be
benefited by a moderate quantity of
bones, though those that are kept in
close quarters need them most.
Nearly every family of any size has
refuse bones enough from the kitchen
to afford tho poultry quite a treat
from time to time, and when ibis is
not the ease, or when the supply runs
short, enough can be procured from
tho butcher each week at a very small
price, many butchers being glad to
give them away to get rid of them.
These can be crushed by using a
large stone and a heavy hammer,
though there is a very good and cheap
mill made for this purpose—costing
S3 without legs and $7 with legs,
which pays for itself several times over
during tho season when large flocks
are kept, us it not only grinds and
crushes bones lint oyster shells, corn,
etc. The bones crush best when dry,
and should be reduced to the size of a
small pea. Standard American Poul¬

FRULIMINAB*’ WORK FOR THIS FLORIST.
The amateur florist will find it ad¬
vantageous to prepare a number of
boxes of clean sand and fill them with
Writings of various plants that will be
needed for early bedding-out. If the
sitting room window contains a
geranium that has a thrifty growth, it
is easy to make a dozen or more cut¬
tings, out them in the Haud, keep them
in a warm place with abundance of
Water, and before many days find a
number of sturdy young plants to re¬
ward this bit of painstaking, Horse
shoe geraniums, heliotrope, abutilons,
salvias and the like are very easily
propagated in this way and repay the
time spent upon them better than al¬
most any other el our familiar plant
‘friends.
With an abundance of these and a
few judiciously selected roses, one
need never be without a profusion of
beautiful blossoms. Many people have
excellent success with carnations, and
oi mu i ieio than is ni) more delightful
amusement the care of these
charming plants.
There is a good deal ,.i selecting
those things that one seems to have
the best success with. Many persons
find it impossible to grow certain
plants with any degree of satisfaction,
while in the hands of others they seem
to bloom and grow with scarce!*' any
‘ v
care or attention.
One may put in a few seeds of piauts
that need long seasons and have thani
strong and well grown by tho time
the first frosts are over. The cobet,
passion-vine, moon-flower and the like
aro very easily started indoors. The
moon-flower and eobea must have a
long season in order to give any
amount of pleasure; the passion-vine
will not, of course, stand frost in
noithern latitudes, but if well started
and put out early will give a profusion
ot flowers, ami is unquestionably one
ol the most beautiful and interesting
of climbers.—Nov York Ledger.
MILK VXr-EimiKNT.
the influence which changes of food
ami temperature exert upon the qtian
tity and quality of the milk of dairy
cows is u question much discussed. To
try to settle it definitely an experi¬
ment was undertaken at the Nebraska
experiment \ station.
An examination ... of , the .. milk ... ol a
large number of cows for a period of
thirty days, eared for by^ many per
foas and receiving different food and
care, was remarkable as showing a
wnii variation m butter fat in the
milk of a jr■■up o? cows owned in ..
conipar tin iy limited area, such as i
to bo found in the neighborhood of
tno>t medium-sized towns.
I he chance of food showed plainly
in the quality of the milk, as a ration
o. poor quality showed loss in per
cent, of fat present, and one of rich
nutritious foo l caused increase in per
cent, of fat.
l he final result shown was that
there was little change produced iu
the total fat day by day, but that the
chances in the per cent, of fat were
tally compensated in changes ~~ in the
milk yield of cows.
Hr. studv f sudden storms and cold
waves included ten observations. Of
tt ‘SC, vei MR , ''' ... ' diminished
yitld of nnlk, aud in . three ^ the yield

percent, iu live observations, remained

FARM AND HARDEN NOTE I.
There are few farms where geese
could not bo made profitable,
Among all farm stock sheep are the
most intolerant of dirty quarters.
Nothing that will makegood manure
should be wasted, but carefully saved.
Clover seed may be sown any time
during the winter when the air is still.
Pigs, like all other kinds of live
stock, should have constant access to
salt.
This is the time to busy yourself in
cutting up next summer’s supply ol
firewood.
Straw used judiciously in connection
! j with roots aud grain will reduce the
cost of feeding,
It would seem that vegetable cul
j tore under glass might be made as im¬
portant as floriculture.
Wolves and foxes are destructive,
but not more so than the rabbits they
serve to keep from multiplying.
You cannot keep 1ho heifer call
growing right along unless she is made
comfortable during the cold weather.
Allowing the dead limbs to remain
| on the trees only robs the live part of
needed sap and greatly injures the
fruit.
Growing ducks should be watered
w henever they are fed, as they seem
to require considerable water while
eat in o'.
With no experience in fruit grow¬
ing or market gardening do not rush
too largely in at first; go into it by
degrees.
It' salt is kept constantly where the
cows can get at it whenever they wish,
they will see that the salting is done
regularly.
The tiring iron is being much move
UBe d than formerl y. It should
never bo employed by any but a skilled
'
veterinarian.
Oulv pure-bred horses of four kinds
are profitable at present. These are
heavy draught and coach horses, trot
ters and thoroughbreds.
Poultry culture is a means of con
vortill 8; one’s labor into cash; he who
labors in the right direction and with
the best breeds secures tho highest
price foi such labor, .
Too close inbreeding is sappiug the
foundation of health, hardness, growth,
vigor aud fecundity in breeding stock,
Tn some cases inbreeding to some ex
tent is advisable, but generally the
safest plan is to avoid it.
To have plenty of eggs, feed the hens
C oevally. Avoid extremes, neither
keep them so fat that they cannot lay
m> • starved so that they are not able
to .f.y no matter how willing. Agood,
j thrifty condition is always best for
' laving hens,
Pekin ducks will grow to a market¬
able sibe, making greater weight in a
I given time than any other breed,
They '■'•ill also lay more eggs than any

were taken off, and now Columbus has
not a train to Atlanta and the east af¬

senger travel seriously inconvenienced,
but the mail facilities are badly crip¬

been filed at Montgomery, Ala., by
the bondholders of the Savannah and
Western railroad for the removal of
Mr. H. M. Comer as co-receiVer, atad
the separation of the property from the
Central Railroad of Georgia, The
movement comes through the Central
Trust company, of New York; and is
probably taken as a matter of policy
to secure a segregation of interests
which some of the holders of the Sa¬
vannah and Western railroad bonds
regard as not identical. Mr. Comer
is now’ cd-receiver with Capt. R. J.
Lowry, of Atlanta. It is not believed
that the petition is based upon want
of confidence in Mr. Comer, but is a
movement looking to a divorcement of
the interests of the two roads.
SANTANDER AGAIN SHAKEN*
Dynamite Explodes Killing Ten Work¬
men aud Injuring Many Others.
Another fatal accident has occurred
at Santander, caused by an explosion
of dynamite. Ever since the awful
disaster that occurred in that city on
the night of November 3d last, when
the Spanish steamer Machichaco was
blown up by the explosion of part of
the large consignment of dynamite
aboard her, the wrecked hull of the
vessel has been lying at the bottom of
the bay. It was discovered by divers,
who went in search of the bodies of
some of those who were killed at the
time, and a considerable quantity of
dynamite was still in the wreck. This
was considered a menace to shipping,
and the authorities determined to have
it removed. While a number of men
were thus engaged an explosion oc¬
curred, and ten of the workingmen
were killed and thirty injured.

“Resolved, That in the opinion of
the representatives of the financial in¬
stitutions of New York who subscribed
to the $50,000,000 5 per cent loan and
made it a success, the coinage of silver
seigniorage would endanger the finan¬
cial stability of the government and
would inflict upon a suffering peo¬
ple pernicious and unnecessary legisla¬

disastrous consequences.”
HOUK NOMINATED,
He Contests Gibson’s Yote and is Suc¬
cessful.
A Knoxville dispatch says: The re¬
publican executive congressional com¬
mittee of the second congressional dis¬
trict of Tennessee, after a two days’
session, declared John C. Honk the
republican nominee. There were two
republican candidates, Houk and Judge
Henry R. Gibson. A primary election
was held March 10th to select a candi¬
date. The face of the returns showed
Gibson to have a majority of 1,089,
thus making him the nominee. Houk,
the present incumbent, contested the
nomination of Gibson. A canvass of
the returns was made, which resulted
in 1,700 votes for Gibson and 200 for
Houk being thrown out, thus leaving
Houk a majority of 804 over Gibson
and giving him the nomination. Gib
eon says he will abide the action of
the committee and will run, claiming
to have received his nomination from
the people.
JUMPED FROM WINDOWS.
N arrow Escape of School Children From

The four-story public school build¬
ing, in South Evanston, HI., thirteen
miles north o; Chicago, caught fire
from some mysterious cause and was
completely destroyed. Six of the panic
stricken pupils, surrounded by smoke
and fire, took the desperate chances of
jumping from the third and fourth
story windows to escape what seem¬
ed to be certain death, and were se¬
verely, but probably not fatally injured.
The remainder of tho children who re¬
tained enough composure to listen to
the pleadings of their teachers and the
firemen, were marched tlirough the
thickening smoke to fresh air and safe
ty.
REPUBLICANS VICTORIOUS.

A dispatch from Trenton, X. J.,
says: In the senatorial case, Chief
Justice Beasley decides that the senate
is not a continuous body and that
Adrian is not entitled to be president.
He says that Rogers’ title is valid.
This is a victory for the republicans.

DAMAGE BY HIGH WATER.
Eight Inches of Rain Flood tVie Missis¬

The damage to property in the Mis¬
sissippi valley by storms and Hoods
during the past week is beyond calcu¬
lation. Bridges have been washed
away, houses wrecked, railroad tracks
displaced* farm land has been flattened
out, especially iu the bottoms, and
crops have be eh delayed, where before
every prospect for an early end highly
favorable season for farmers and plan¬
ters was anticipated. During two
days the precipitation at Memphis
reached about eight inches. There are
eleten railroads entering Memphis, and
every one of them has be*»n subjected
to washouts.
Flood in Arkansas.
The greatest flood in the history ot
south central Arkansas, is now on and
that part of the state is rapidly ap¬
proaching the condition of an inland
ocean, It has rained almost inces
santlv all over the state and in the In¬
dian Territory for four days. Railway
communication has been entirely cut
off from the south to Texarkana.
Prendergast Respited.
A Chicago special says: Prendergast
has been respited until April 8th. Re¬
spite was granted by Judge Chetlaii,
pending a determination of Prender
gasl’s sanity. When the demoniacal judge nn
noiinced his decision, a
grin took possession of Prendergast’s
countenance and he turned Horn one
face to another with a leer of satisfac¬
tion. He uas quickly ushered out of
the courtroom and returned to fail.
The Gorefnor Sustained.
The supreme cotart of Michigan, ia a
decision in the case c'f Gov. Ricll against
State Treasurer Hambitzer, Secretary
of Jochim and Land Commissioner
