Last week several villages and towns in Italy wore devastated by avalanches of snow. Many people at Chanmont, France, were killed, and fifteen at Sporoue. Great dis tress prevails. Appeals have been made for relief fiom the lloyal Ma sonry at Rome. Chicago midwives have inaugu rated a traffic that the Republican press might very consistently howl at. This trallic is selling white babies to. Chinese. Last Thursday a white baby was sold to’a Chinese for *l2 cash. The Police Commissioners of New York arc just now giving _no little attention to the gambling houses of that city. They have re solved to break them up, and a reg ular watch is kept after them all the time. Several houses were raided last week and the proprie tors and players arrested. The labor organizations of New York have held a meeting and deei ded to carry their troubles, which 'are numerous, to the Legislature. They mot' at the State Capitol and : laid’out a regular programme they 1 propose to present to the Colons. The Supreme Court ofthe United ! States is two years and a half be hind its work. The habit of the | judges writing lengthy decisions, ! reviewing all the allegations in the case, add unnecessarily much to their labors, and produces great de lav. They should do as the high est court of England, render oral decisions and go on with the busi ners. We are generally for the women for anything they desire, but we sincerely hope that Congress will not purchase from Mrs. Fossett the portrait she has painted of the Electoral Commission. J list as lit tle as possible should be preserved of that body. Their history will be left to posterity in writing;. Let not Congress perpetuate their picture. General Grant has given up financiering and turned his atten tion to literature. He has a story of the battle of Shiloh in the cur rent number of the Century Maga zine, very bluntly and clumsily written, and it may be interesting to the Northern readers of the Cen tury. It is said that England and Tur key have agreed to divide Egypt between then;. Judge H. K. McCay who has been confined in a Pniladelphia in sane asylum, personally appeared last Thursday in the United States Court, and asked for his own re lease. Chicago keeps up her reputation A poor woman gave birth to a child on the street in Chicago at night, in a temperature of fourteen degrees below zero. The Court of Appeals. Now York, has decided a very important prin ciple of taxation. The Legislature in 1881 imposed a tax on the capital stock of all telegraph companies organized under the laws of N. Y., or organized in other States and doing business in N. Y., The Wes tern Union refused to pay the tax. The court holds that they must pay the tax on their entire capital. It is rather a peculiar fact that the notables of the land meet on Sunday to determine the most im portant business matters. For in stance, when Grant desired to bor row *150,000 from Vanderbuilt, he milled on him and asked for it on Sunday. It is a surprising fact that rail road building is going on largely, notwithstanding the stringency of more/ natters. Some corpora tions or men ui great wealth now get plenty of money at (heap rates. And it now costs much loss to build roads. Rails cost s27‘ that a few years since cost $-50. Railroad building is now going on a solid system and not by specula tion. The February number ofDuMon est’s Ii.LUSUTRATed Magazine contains several articles of unusual interest, among which are “Rem brandt and his Art,” “Madame Ad am,” “The Story of Thorwaldt-e i,” and “Old and New Industries for Women,” by Jennie June. Mr. Barnard’s serial, “A Strange Girl,’ is continued; and several good stories and poems, household and art suggestions, fashion and “Cur rent Notes” give additional attrac tion to this excellent publication. The fi ontispiece is an oil picture suited to the season dedicated to Saint Valentine. Comparatively little work has as yet been perfected by congress. The now treties, inter state commerce, and a few other subjects have 1 occupied mu* hot the time. Feeding Land for Crops. As the writer enters upon the task of preparing this article for the Gazette, he cannot refrain from offering a word of congratulation to its readers, over the eno.anous changes that have taken place in the past year in the Political,Social nnd Industrial organizations of the country; and lie sincerely hopes that at all times the minds and talents ofits readersand contri butors may be actively and con stantly employed upon the side of freedom, justice, and intelligence. As the time of year for the prep aration of the coming crops is upon us a few suggestions may not be amiss, as to the time and man ner of applying our compost. It has been the custom of most farmers to spend much time every year in January & February pre paring their compost heaps, to re main until March or April, then to be carried to the field and deposited in the furrows for the coming crops. The writer after some experience with said manner of composting luis adopted the following mode of preparing his compost, with good results: Everyday after the loth January that the ground will ad mit of plowing lay off your rows for cotton with a turning plough going and coming in the same fur row to get it sufficiently large <fc deep to receive the compost. r l hese furrows scatter your manure, cot ton seed andacid phosphate, then throw two furrows on this mixture with a scooter and let it remain un til near planting time, when two turning plough furrows may bo thrown upon the small list already made and the middles ploughed out, the seed bed will be fresh and ready for planting: The writer finds the above plan of putting in compost a decided advantage over letting it remain about the lots until the busy sea sons of; the year are here, to say nothing’ of the savings by letting decomposition take place in the soil where it is most needed. The largest production witfc the' least expenditure is the greatest problem, and is one that the farm er should study day & night. If he hires a first class laborer, he feels the importance of putting a good axe or hoe orspaede in liis hands, he appreciates the necessity of pro viding him with a good mule and plough that he may property jayi-- pare for and work a, crop. Lu{ does he appreciate the equal if not greater importance of feeding the. crops which that hand is to culti vate? Readers of the Gazette have you ever thought on the advantage of buying a compost distributor "such as Philpot’s or Kemp’s 11 and hire ling a first class hand and run a team the year round gathering leaves from the forest, bringing in woods mould, scraping out the fence corners, spading up muck, and gathering rich deposits, where ever they may have accumulated hauling them directly upon the land to beturned under?3hould one week’s work after the above men tioned plan be put on one acre of Jmd it would certainly increase production 100 per- cent. For in stance an acre of land that would make half bale of cotton without fertilizers, would with the above a mount of work put upon it make one bale, then think of 50 acres be ing prepared in the same way in one year, by the same hand and team. In conclusion I would say let thoughtful farmers calculate on the cost of said compost distribu tor, hand and team “say yoke of oxen” and compare it with their annual guano bills, “remembering that the virtues of the one are about exhausted in a single crop, while the other tends towards permanent building up of the soil: The cry, that farming dont pay that comes up from all over the land will not be hushed until our lands are made to produce more per acre. 1 S. 11.
