The Ames (Hoax?) Plow Company of
Boston and New York, sends us circular en-
titled, ''Potato Blight-Canse and Remedy"
As facts" there follow side by side articles
from the New York Independent and the
New York Observer, both of which declare
az the result of the investigation of Mr.. Ly-
man Reed of New York, formerly a Boston
Alderman, that the potato rot is caused by
numerous insects, too small to be discovered
by the naked eye, the eggs of which are de-
posted on the epdermis of the potato and
covered with an inso!uble varnish which pro-
tects them from the influence of the weather
until the seed is planted or placed in favor
able condition to develop the insects in I'M
told numbers, which extract the vital flu d
from the growing potato thus superinducing
the decay which results in the loss of millions
of dollars annually. We are not quite sure
that Mr. Reed would have made this declara-
ton or that the Ames Plow Company suffi-
GENTLY venerates our high character to have
sent us that circular, had not that gentleman
scovered compound that interferes with

vanishing Insects, and which the Ames

That Petty SWindIe.

Inc Accident Insurance operation which
we Monday denounced as "a Petty Swim
de- was not the position of the companies
in discriminating against women in their po,-
icies. This is buainess transaction and we
have no disposition to traverse the right of
the companies to make such restrictions as
their experience and calculations of chances
shall dictate as prudent. What we object to
is, that accident tickets should be sold to wo-
men on the cars under the assumption on
their part chat they are getting the same pro-
lection which men wonld get for the same
payment and with no word of explanation
from the eaterprising agent who makes the
sale. To be sure there is an elaborate con-
tract in very fine type ON the back of each
ticket, setting forth the amount to be paid
per week in case of disability resulting from
accident, and the amount to be paid in the
event of death within the prescribed time
in the closing paragraph Of which is the
statement that Females will be insured un-
der this policy against death only; but peo-
pie in purchasing ticket do not stop to read
through an elaborate statement of details
from the very nature of the circumstances
they cannot. And so the lively agent, dash
ing cheerily through the car, crying out Vi
vaciously how much you'll get per week if
you're hurt and how much in one grand sum
if you re killed, ''all for quarter" sells his
tickets to provident women who go on their
way, cherishing the fond delusion that they
will receive weekly stipend, if they be in
jured, as man would under like circum-
stances, and not at all comprehending that
they are playing game in which they must
die to win.
II this be not practical cheating by false
pretence., if the transaction be not 'petty
swindle'' as we characterized it, then we con-
fess to ignorance Of the meaning of words.
The operation is familiar to every one accus-
toned to travel by rail, and many woman
who reads this win exhume from her pocket
book some old accident ticket which she has
uuguarcedly purchased and will learn for the
first time, that there is, at the foot of the
mass of fine print on its back, statement so
essentially limiting her rights.
repeat that we do not question the
. right of the companies to prescribe such linn
itations as they like; but we denounce the
shabby conduct of some of their agents in
perpetrating such sorry cheat upon unsus-
pecting women. The practice should meet a
stern public Reproduction.

AS regards the value of The closet product, Mr..
James quotes to me she opinion of two farmers hold
ing land near Halton, an opinion at which they had
arrived by actual trial Independently of each other,
that earth which had passed once through the HaltOn
closets had a minimum agricultural value of 93 ($l5)
a ton.
To sum up the evidence on the subject, it is en-
,jrely reasonable to say, that for all of the purposes
Cor which it is intended the earth-cIoset is Il perfect
machine. It's cheapncss, its sim implicitly, and its adap-
tation for all conceivable circumstances, whether in
town or country, make its general adoption morally
certain. 1t will never d%spIace the water-cIoset in
cities which have an abundant public supply of water,
until manure attains a value that will compensate
householders for the slightly increased labor it necessi-

present.

of the moisture of he fcces shall he Immediately vita
drawn from them, that there shall be too little left 10
cause an offensive putreiaclion.
The best manner FIR drying the earth depends
very much upon the quantity required, and the ans
at command. Two or three cartIoadS, winch VIII be
sufficient tor a years use OF an ordinary family, may
he taken from a pIowed field, or a roadside gutter,
during the dry weather Of summer. Dumped IN an
out-ofthe-way corner under a wood-shed, or in any
other dry place, being uuderlaid with boards to rre-
vent il from absorbing the moisture Of the earth, il
will soon become su efficiently Try for use, and will re
main so throughout the dampest and f~oggiest weather
of the winter or spring. 1t might be equally well
kept in a dry and Weil-ventiIated cellar. 1t may be
sifttd, little by little, as wanted; and 1t will answer
tolerably well if it is merely put through the ordinary
coal sitter, though something finer would be pretera-
Lie. The sieve used by the writer has six meshes TO
the inch ; perhaps four would do as we'll When the
earth is siited, it may be slowed away in boxes or
barrels; in some easily accessible place, and there
remain until wanted for use. This is sutfciel I for the
requirements of private house.
There is undoubtedly a great deal of difference
in the effectiveness of earths of various composition,
though it is probable, in view of a wide range OF eXpe-
riment and observation, that the kinds fearth which
are not suited for use in the closet are much fever than
would be generally supposed. Pure sand and grave1
are worthless but any earth that contains enough
c,dy or organic matter for the production of ordinary
crops. will answer the purpose. A nearly pure clay,
however, is Objectionable from It's tendency to absorb
moisture from the air. If to be used only once, an
equal weight OF muck or peat may be, from its greater
bulk, more valuable than clay, though the clay can be
used many more times. Probably a clay loan, highly
charged with oxides OF iron, (notably reddish clay
rOams0 would be the best.

with a small scoop or tin cup with which to distribute
it over the feces, or to keep the supply 10 small paper
bags, each holding enough for a single operation, say
ny means for testing without cost the efficiency of the

The apparatus which, in its most compact form,
is shown IN the c%ommode, Fig [, contains in the back

AxIOMs OLE FREE TRADE.

1t has always been the habit of the pro
lection pirates in this country to assert
that there were no manufactures in this
country until liberal protective policy
created and fostered them. Mr., Henry 1.
Lloyd, in lecture before the Liberal
/ Club in New York, took occasion to expose
| this false assertion He said this was a
mistake, as even as early as before the
adoption of the constitution several arti-
ces were manufactured among other
things cloths, paper aud glassware and
salt was manufactured by the Indians and
sold by them at profit-an article which
now had TO be protected by duty Of $50
per cent He alluded to the articles Of
iron. which had been alleged 10 be an in-
FAINT manufacture but this was not the
case as in 1920 England deemed it neces-
sary to protect herself against the Ameri-
can iron. and under protection this interest
had not increased in prosperity, but on the
contrary had fourished as. well without
protection as with IT, MIR Lloyd spoke of
the village of Boonton, which had produc-
ed iron, and had been obliged 10 send it to
England whence it was returned in man
utactured state and of the desire of the
. principal proprietor to put stop TO this
by manufacturing it on the spot where it
, was produced, and after much trouble he
succeeded in manufacturing nails, carrying
on the manufacture clanGestinely yet sue
ceSstully, without any protection, ana I'D
, direct opposition to the government, which
at last employed force 10 break up tins
manufacture aud said that this fact alone
was convincing 10 show that the American
laborer needed no protection other than
his own strong arm aud cunning brain.
MIR. LLOYD next spoke of the emigration
T, question, and while admitting that labor
came from Canada 20 this country because
=, it commanded higher price here than
! there, he denied entirely that this increased
wages was due to protection, but It was
/. simply because the natural advantages Of
soil aud climate were greater here than
:. there. Besides, Canada was an emineutly
