The Senate select committee on
transportation will remain in session
during the recess of Congress, to take
testimony and fully investigate the
questions at issue between the pro-
ducers of the country and the RAILWAYS,
20 ~ to report upon the whole subject
at the next session. Senator Window,
Of Minnesota, is the Chairman of this
committee and promises to make thor.
ough work of the investigation pro-
posed. In urging the passage of the
resolution authorizing the committee
to sit during the vacation, Mr.. Win
dom said:
The channels OF commerce are con-
trolled by powerful monopolies which
dictate their own terms to the peonle
The burdens they impose upon the
consumer and producer are too priev.
Gus to be long endured. While mil.
lions OF bushels Of corn and wheat are

Of the people for redress can neither

There arc veal kin0s 81 law7 rass,
which can = had at our seed 6fores.
You can appear to better advantage
with a ragged coat, than ragged
door yard.
We see that the manufacturers of
agricultural implements held meet
ing at Albany, N. Y, lately, and after
full discussion determined to adj
vance the price of implements from
10 to 20 per cent, and to shorten the
time Of credit. This is all right. No
one should dispute their right to
charge what they please for their
goods and wares. The higher the
better Just now. We farmers desire
to'be divorced from them, and the
accumulation of reasons will only
bring forward the separation. This
one act will give hundreds Of thou
sands to the new enterprise.
We think there is better prospect
for pork in the coming year. For
several years, until the last, pork was
high, and it was raised in all the
Eastern and Southern States. But
with dear feed, they cannot raise it
at the present prices. SO there will be
an immense falling off in the product,
except in the States where cheap
corn is raised. So we advise farmers
to get good breed of hogs, raise
extra large animals, and remunerativc
prices will without much doubt be
ready for them. There is an immense
demand for lard, lard oil, glvcerine,
stearine, &c.
Too much attention is paid in Iowa
to the advice of agricultural papers
and the practice in other States, rela-
tive to stirring ground when it is wet.
That caution is not necessary here.
Eighteen years practice has convinc-
ed us that wheat is better when SOW
ed and narrowed in when the ground
would be considered too wet by New
York, Ohio or Indiana farmers. Our
soil pulverizes too fine, and blows
away in the April winds. But wheat
when put in rather damp, it does
as well, and then there is no
danger from winds. Put in your
wheat. Do not wait for drier days.
1t frequently occurs that favorite
apple tree gets girdled either by rab-
bits or some accident. The tree can
be saved by cutting the tree above
and below the wound with graft
chisel, and then cutting some live
limbs and fitting the ends above and
below. inner bark to bark, and then
cover the wound with cloth dipped
in liquid grating wax. This is some
trouble. and must be done with care
but whole orchards have been saved
N this way, where they have girdled. ,

nanity who had been trying to con-

FARM, GARDEN & ORCHARD.

The following, among other items
are prepared under the above caption
for the State Register, by some one
who appears to have practical knowl-
edge whereof he speaks:
Grating can be more safely done
in April in this latitude, as it in ures
them to freeze.
There is no danger OF sowing pars-
nips, lettuce, aud onions too early, as
they are never injured by frost
There are two ways for farmers to
get rich. One is to earn more than
you spend. The other is to spend
less than you earn.
California raises more wheat in
proportion to the number of inhabi.
tants than any other State, 29f bush
els to each citizen, while Iowa, being
the third State in this respect, raises
2l4.
This is the season of the year for
horses 10 be afflicted with scratches.
Wash with warm soft water and soap.
Then rub dry with dry cloth, and
apply glycerine. Then keep your
horses out Of the mud or liquid ma
nnre till they are well.
We misjudge the spirit of the
times if the farmers of Iowa do not
make determined effort to lessen
their labor bills this season. We
cannot pay enormous bills for hired
help at home, and oppressive rates Of
transportation, and continue to occu-
Ply our farms.
Orchards are greatly benefited bv
being thoroughly washed with very
strong soap-suds, or weak I've, with a
whitewash brush 1t removes much
Of the rough bark, kills the eggs of
mischievous insects. and improves
the appearance Of the trees.
Recollect that there is a large
amount of rosin in the fbrous roots
of all the pinus family, and if those
roots are exposed to sun or air, the
rosin becomes solid, and the tree is
dead. those setting out eyergreens
this spring will do well to recollect
this.
1t is useless to expect housewife
to keep clean house, with the yard
about the premises, which should be
a delightful lawn. either mud or dust.
If therefore yonr house has not about
it yard well set to grass, now is the
time to attend to that important duty.

Peoples Narrow Gauge Railway.

From what We have been able to
learn concerning this proposed rail-
road from Davenport to Iowa Falls,
the route Of the road will be quite diff
ferent from at that first mapped out by
the proprietors. The probability is
that the road will pass to the south of
Upton, crossing Cedar River at or about
Cedar Bluffs, and pass through the
southwestern part of Linn county,
making Western station. We have
also been informed that the officers
now think more favorably of running
the road from that point in a more
westerly direction than was first in
tended, and making Toledo station.
II this is true, we assure the officers
OF the road, as we have heretofore
done, that they will receive substan-
tial encouragement from our citizens.
At a meeting Of delegates at Blairs'
town on Wednesday OF last week, the
organization of the temporary Boar'
OF Directors was effected, and soon |
survey of the route will be made
Solicitors will also soon be in the field
soliciting the right of way and aid 70
the road; and, it is needless to add
that upon tho encouragement receiv
ed, will depend largely the result Q
this effort to construct q road, to b
