WASHINGTON, July Z, 1916.
Congress-IHe Tdrif-A Sad Faur Pas by Mr..
Ste,cart, of Pa.-Another Reeusant Reported in
the Senate upon the Tariff.
A resolution was adopted to-day in the House,
to adjourn Congress on the 3D. of August. Mr..
Stewart, of Pa, moved reconsideration in the
hope that it would be refused, and that thereby
the resolution would be clinched. But he let tho
cat out Of the bag. He said that the reason why
he wished an early day of adjournment, was that
the warehousing bill, the land graduation and re-
duction bill, the sub-treasury bill, and more than
all the tariff BILL might be defeated for want Of
time to act upon them. Seeing the cat out, the
House at once smelt the rat, reconsdered the re-
solution and postponed it for two weeks. Now,
had Mr.. Stewart laid low, and kept perfectly quiz
escent, the resolution might have stood fast
The 10th or 18th of August is the earliest period
at which we can calculate upon an adjournment.
and, from the progress of the debate in the Sem
ate upon the land bill, we shall hold on till Sep
TENDER. Moreover, we have to wait for the rau-
fication of the treaty from England, and we are
anticipating important movements in Mexico,
which will require the presence Of Congress.
1t is said that Mr.. Sempe, of H., is not ar fat
on the tariff bill from the House, but that on the
contrary he protests against the dose. If this be
So the tariff bill of reductions is lost.
The Senate, to-day, after passing the House re-
solutions of thanks to Gen. Taylor, were engaged,
discussion Of the bill for the reduction and gradu-
alton of the public lands. 1t is probable this bill
will occupy the residue of the week.
House, on acali Of that honorable body. There
were at first seventy absentees-a few straggers
came in, when the doors and windows were clo-
sed and locked, and the absentees called, in order
to be fined, when no reasonable excuse were pre-,
sented. score were reported to be sick, several
of them having gone to the Springs for the bene-
fit of their broken health. A half dozen Of dis
consulate outsiders appeared in the galleries
above, submissive listeners to their own condem-
nation. There was great deal of trouble in set-
Ting upon the mode and manner Of pursuing the
absentees, and compelling their attendance.

GROWING MUSTARD FOR FEED
AND ENRICHING SOILS.

beg to hand you the following State
ment Of the use of growing mustard for
feed, or to plough in as preparation for
wheat crop. 1t is very paIatabIe TO all
kinds of cattle, and believe very whole
some. / think it far preferable TO buck
wheat, or any other vegetable with such
rapid growth. l sowed five acres on the
18th Of July last, on rather inferior land, of
light graveIly sod with chalk subSoll,'
where early turnips for wheat had failed. II
should be drilled inches apart, with IL
pounds of seeds per acre. On the 25th OF
August had measured portions cut in
different parts of the field, and weighed,
which on fair calculation, yielded tons
per acre-it was in full bloom-and the
next day ploughed it in; which consld-
eF, being full of vegetable matter, must be
an excellent dressing for wheat crop. l
would invite any friend to make trial of
mustard on better land than mine; the
expense being so trihing compared with
buckwheat which is IS. per bushel, and
requiring two and half bushels per acre,
would be 12s 3D., whereas IL lbs. Of mus.
tard seed, at I'd. per h., the price it is now
selling at, would be Is. per acre English
paper.

HIGH RACKS TO FEED HoRsEs.--At a
meeting ofthe Farmers Club in New York
several oflhe gentlemen, as related by the
Farmer and Mechanic, observed thatcough
was caused in horses, by feeding them in
high racks. Thomas Hancock, who ser
we'd ten years in thu British cavalry,
remarked that his troop lost annually nine
horses from blindness, caused by obliging
them 10 reach up for their feed. When fed
from troughS, the loss ceased.
An elevated position Of the head, such
as is rendered necessary by high rack, is
certainly not natural, nor favorable for
easy and quiet feeding---and that il should
cause cough and other diseases ID Ieasona-
bic 70 suppose; and If sustained by such
facts as are mentioned above, should be
abandoned.
