Here is brief explanation Of the
derivation, real meaning and present
signification Of the French flied term
which has lately taken such fright
fully prominent place in our political
vocabulary. The Boston Post. speak
ing Of the Credit Mobilier," says:
1.-THE definition Of the term is, strict
", personal credit, and when applied
to q company means one which invests
capital in personal property as distin-
guished from q credit foncier, where
the investment is in land. The great
French Credit Mobilier Company is
about twenty years old, and was crea
ted, under government .Anction, for
the purpose Of investing capital in
banking, ia contracts for works of pub
lie Improvements, in stocks, and other
persona! property. It Is q joint-stock
company with large capital, and for
years did large and profitable BUSH
ness, which of late has fallen of. The
name and object of the American Cred
1t Mobilier had this origin, though its
business, 30 far - We know. has been
confined to contracts with the Union
Pacific Railroad Company"

We we're pleased to note that the
House refused to agree to the Senate
amendments Axing the profit which
druggists selling liquors under permit
aud bond should be allowed at ten per
cent. 1t was simply ridiculous to
thus make a provision with which
every mans good sense teaches Kim
no one would or could comply. The
purpose Of the law is evidently to
place in the hands OF honest and re-
putable druggists the opportunity to
sell spirituous liquors, to the end that
they may only be sold for legitimate
purposes. With such a provision as
the one alluded to, honest dealers
would be efiectually barred; since no
man would go to the trouble and ex-
pense incident upon obtaining a permit
with the expectation of doing ten
per cent. business, and he who took a
permit with the intention of breaking
the law in one respect would not be
very likely to carefully and conscien-
ciously obey the rest OF its require.

FARM AND GARDEN.


The following ten rules, applicable to set
ling hens and young chickens, are Contriou
ted to the Cincinnati Times, by lady:
|. Never set Il hen in a close box; give hel
plenty OF room to turn about; she will not dc
we'll If cramped or crowded.
2. ALWAYS set her on the ground, if posi-
be The eggs will hatch best with the nest
directly on the ground.
3. Don't give hen more than thirteen eggs
for Il setting. know fifteen IS the rule, but
experience has taught me to consider fifteen
JUS two too many.
4. Be careful to mark the eggs, for other
hens are apt to lay in the nest with your set
ter, and unless the eggs are properly marked
yon might not be able to identify the Heac
rrgs. You understand that eggs laid to a
setting hen must be promptly removed.
). Make a record Of the time when YOU set
your hen, in order that you may be looking
out for the Matching
g. Some eggs will invariably hatch little
,ooner than others. Remove the young chicks
at once, and keep them from the hen until all
are Matched. lfyou do not the hen will be
likely to quit the nest with the first corners,
leaving the unmatched chicks to chill and
die.
7. Don'tpick at the bills ofthe little chicks
in an effort to remove what some people call
the pip" 1t is all right, and will disappear
rs soon as nature requires.
s. Never undertake to feed your setting
hens on the nest; il is a poor way. Let them
come off for their food They will not stay
off too long. Nature knows what she is
about. The eggs require about the amount
of airing they receive while the hen is oil
Tor food
O. See that the hens do not run about too
much while the chicks are yet young. Ii
will cause them to droop, and will sometimes
give them disease called the "spraddlcs."
10. Feed your young chicks on corn-meal
mixed with pure water, and don't mix it too
wet You want it so that it will Crumble.

1t has been found that the roots of a good
crop of red clover left in an acre of land after
the removal Of the crop weigh six thousand
live hundred and eighty pounds, or from three
20 three and half tons. The same eXamina.
ion gave the weight of an acre of rye roots
at thirty five hundred pounds, and Of wheat
roots, at thirty-iour hundred pounds, All of
this matter is of course valuable for the use
Of such crops as may be grown during or
after its decomposition. The well known
superiority of clover as Il manuring crop,
however, is not due alone to the greater
amount of organic matter taken mainly from
the atmosphere, which its roots supply, but
also to the position in which this matter is
deposited. The roots reach deeply into the
soil, and on their decomposition they sCrveto
draw moisture from the lower soil, and by
The decomposition Of fertilzing matter to a
considerable depth, they induce the descent
of the roots ofothcr crops to points where they
are much more sure of supply of moisture
during dry seasons than they could be if near
the surface Then again, these deeply pcne-
rating roots traverse part Of the sUbsoil not
Heretofore open to vegetation, and in their
decomposition they produce chemical eff
