turn attention in another direction by
Offering Inducements to encourage the
planting OF fruit trees in localities where
the soil Is not in demand for other pur-
poses. and impose fines for the wanton
destruction Of timber. Congress has
done something on this subject, but not
enough. Timber on the public lands is
disappearing rapidly. while no provision
has been made for the renewal Of for

The Niagara hackman has at
last furnished the material for a
romance. Before he sank TO his
present condition he saved the life
Of a lady on the OCCASION of an
explosion on the Ohio River by
swimming ashore with her. A few
days ago, while he was wondering
how much overcharge an approach
ing party would stand, be was sur
prised by the same lady, vino put a
valuable ring on his finger and in
troduced him to her husband, a
wealthy banker. The latter sent
for bottle of wine which he gave
to the hackman and also offered
him pecuniar assistance. This the
hackman declined, as he did an
offer to purchase for his use the
team and hack he was driving, the
ground for his declination being
that he was addicted to drink and
couldn't make good use of them.
The banker then added to his other
gifts brief temperance lecture and
went his way. Such is the story
as it was told, and public opinion
viii probably be divided as to its
truth. Some, no doubt, win be
incredulous enough to stamp it as
an unworthy attempt TO create
sympathy for the poor down-trod-
den class of which the tourist sees
most at the Falls.

For fodder, we have, after trying
many methods, finally adopted the
double row system Of cultivation.
The ground, greensxard, is plowed
in the Fall and, by repeated har-
rowing in Spring, made fine and
mellow, and after being heavily
MANFRED with stable manure, spread
broadcast, is planted in double
rows, with a seed sower, with room
between each pair Of rows for run
ming a horse hoe.
Aside from the labor Of harrow
ing,-which always pays,-this
method is the cheapest of any We
have ever tried, which gave salts
factory results. Manuring in the
drill is too much work, and drop
ping and covering the corn by
hand is too tedious and expensive
a process, and sowing broadcast is
too slovenly systom for Us. With
double rows, the horse and cultiva-
tor can DO nearly all the hoeing,
keeping the ground light and leav-
ing little work for the hand hoe,
as the corn soon shades the ground 1
too much for the weeds TO grow
