Immediately after the decision as to mixed
schools Of the Indiana Supreme Court, the Brazil
Ind.) School Board ordered all the colored chill
dren out of the public schools of that city.
One of the signs Of the time is the trial of dis
tinguished "Reformer" in Wisconsin, late candi-
date for Congress, on a charge of attempting to
defraud the United States avenue.
An excellent bill was passed by the House Tues
day by unanimous consent. 1t forbds members
of Congress to act agents or counsel for parties
to suits under the revenue laws The spirit in
which the bill was received, much as its actual
passage, is a most encouraging indication of the
good intentions of the present Congress.
A Portland (Oregon) man, standing ON hotel

The printers tournament presents good exam
pie to the professional idlers who travel about the
country holding billiard tournaments for the edit
ton OF those who are useless as themselves. If
these supplemented knights Of the cue would put

more credit and do the world much more service.

This story comes from Oakland, California
The man who buys old bottles visited the resi-
dence of a well-known citizen, whose wife gath
cred up few dozen bottles and sold them to the
bottle merchant realizing $l.75 for pin money
Subsequently it was discovered by the ladys hus-
band that half dozen bottles of old hook, worth
Slo, were included in the transfer. The wife pro-
tests ignorance of the fact but it is probable that
her crusading notions were at the bottom of the
| transaction.
| They say that fifty varieties of tobacco are
grown in this country, and remark that this gives
one wide range to chews from.

Worcester is an unsafe place to get married in.
A couple were married Wedne sday night against
the wish of the brides parents, who complained
to the police, and three officers forcibly entered
the room Of the newly welded pair after they had
retired, obliged them to dress, and took them to
the Station House, locked them up in separate
cells, and brought them before the Police Court
the next morning, when they were promptly dis
charged. The bridegroom showed his marriage
certificate, duly signed, to the officers, but it did
not save him from the outrage. A jury Of young
married men ought to try those officers.

tionery and postage, but also instructions in the
art of composing an intelligent reply.
Upon reading the Prospectus which appears as
though prepared for national circulation, one is
naturally surprised, in view Of tie position taken
by the larger portion of the democratic PARTY, to
find the following
TEE NEW YORK
DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM.
/. Gold and silver the only legal tender; no
currency inconvertible with coin.
?. Steady steps toward specie payments; no
step backward.
8. Honest payment of the public deb! in coin;
sacred preservation OF the public faith.
But the explanation appears at second glance
when the reader discovers over the prominent
type Democratic Platform" the words in small
letters, The New York" Aud the reader at
once understands th, is Prospectus for eastern
circulation only and that another and different
one is prepared for circulation in other portions of
the country.
Bat the important thing for republicans to con
slider is, that the democracy are now engaged in
sowing seeds and it becomes our duty to see that
such seeds are as carefully dug out and thrown
over the fence, as you would the Canada thistle
from your garden, for if allowed to flourish and
grow they will benefit no interest but their own,
and will continually hauass and annoy decent peo-
PIE.

SMUT PREvESrlvE.-To prepare seed
wheat for sowing: Make wheat brine,
or better yet, have urine kept in an
out of the way place to wet the seed.
One gallon Of brine will be sufficient
for one bushel of wheat. The brine
should not be TOO strong prefer the
urine: because it gives more vigor to
the young wheat plant.
While wetting the seed, shovel the
pile from side to side until every ker-
mel Of wheat is wet. Then add slack
ed lime. one bushel for each ten bushel,
of wheat. Seed whea: should be
prepared in the evening for the next
days sowing. In the morning before
bagging the seed, wet the pile with
water and shovel the pile until the lime
adheres to the wheat. This prevents
dust while sowing.

TINE OF SowING GRASS SEEDS -
Experience has proved, so far as the
observation Of the writer goes, that
August or early in September is the
best to SOW grass seed, or about the
same time with sowing turuip. There
is usually sufficient rain at that season
to cause the seeds 70 germinate. The
young plants will have time to make
sufficient roots stand the severest cold
of winter. When sown at this time
there is gain of season, as clover,
lucerne aud several of the grasses, il
so"ed without grain in August: will
give cutting in the following spring.
Should there be a failure Of the seed,
an opportunity to re.sow will lloceur, in
the South, in the following February.

Fall seeding has this advantage
over Spring seeding; where it is
tles!lajie to seed grass alone, f
weeds St.rt in the Fall the frosts of
Winter will kill them soon, and the
grass is not liable to be "burnt out, :"
as is often the case if seed is sown
alone in the Spring, when the
weeds which start with the seed in
the Spring often overshadow and
choke the grass. Therefore, l would
advise those farmers who have been
unsuccessful in their Spring seed
ing to grass alone, to try Fall
seeding.
In seeding down to grass one of
the absolute essentials to success is
the thorough pulverlzation of the
soil, and unless it is we'll enriched
by previous crop, fertilizers should
be applied with the seed, that the
young plants may be benefited al

LA PEElM ENIo W1IH 3hlEllcS
OF GoTToN.-I have tried many
varieties Of cotton seed, and gen.
orally have found them, to some
degree at least, conform to the
speciality claimed. ''The Boyd
Prolific" " "the Dickson and "the
Simpson and q few others, are
very valuable varieties of short
staple. The Simpson" being by
far the most thoroughly developed
variety, as the plants of this seed
have for years, under careful selec-
ton: exhibited greater uniformity
than any cotton I have ever planted.
Last year, a friend sent me seventy
seeds, of "Fifteen Lock Cotton
I Iplanted it very carefully, and got
sixty-fye plants from the seventy
seeds. It WAS planted upon good
and highly improved soil; proved
a prolific cluster cotton. but not
we'll established, as the stalks were
not uniform. I soon discovered
what the Fifteen Lock Cotton"
meant. The forms clustered occa-
sionaily so close together, that
three or four Of them would be
merged into one, thus forming a
gnarled monstrosity, the specially
of clustering having been carried
to ru:nous extent. I do not
think, however, that there were
more than dozen Of such defor.n-
tiles. Just twenty Of these stalks
we're uniformly close clustering,
with every boil having five lobes.
I discarded the other stalks, a@d
saved the seed from these twenty
stalks, and this season planted on
q rich piece of ground, one-fourth
Of an acre. The result Of it is i
very fine cotton, much of it the
best clustering cotton I ever saw,
though it is not yet uniform; and
on this one-fourth acre I have
seen only three specimens of the
';monstrosity' above referred to,
though there are great numbers If
clusters Of four and five bolls, yet
Ill distinct and separate. AS |
before mentioned, these seed were
selected from bolls Of Five Lock
Cotton and from stalks where every
boil presented this peculiarity. The
peculiarly is by no means common in
this crop. There is a considerable
quantity Of it with FIVE locks, but it is
BY no means common. I send you
sample of the healthful clustering Of
this cotton, and Of the deforlnity also.
aud you can judge what Fifteen Lock
Cotton" is.-HoBKIRK, in tie Rural
