Wheat Suffice Growth IN the Fall is
What iS Wanted.

Winter wheat is most apt to be injured
by alternate freezing and thawing, rather
than by long continued cold freezing to
great depth. When the ground is fro
zen deeply the wheat planted does no.,
and cannot '.heave out. When we have
a deep frost, then a few days of milder
weather thaws the surface. and very
slight frost following this will snap tie
wheat roots aud leave them on the sur
face: and this occurs alike on drained
aud undrained soil There is 30 abSo
lutte remedy for this evil, but it can be-
palIiated by encouraging a different hab
it OF growth OF wheat roots. Here come
ia the advantage Of "a rich, mellow and
shallow seed-bed for wheat, with hard
underpan, repeIliDg rather than inviting
fall growth Of the wheat roots downward
There is no use trying to get long, deep
roots on the wheat plant in the fall
Ten chances 10 one, the freezing and
thawing Of winter will break the roots
and iniure, If not destroy, the plant Bet
ter by far in the fall encourage a strong
growth Of roots near the surface, form
lng nat through the soil, which, when
frozen, shall rise and fall together. This
is not mere theory, but a fact that ! have
often noticed on land once ploughed with
a rich and shallow seed bed.
The advantage of surface manuring
for wheat, as also of fsuperphosphate and
other commercial fertilizers, drilled in
with the seed, seems to lie largely in pro-
noting large surface growth Of wheat
roots. This, with the leaves of the plant,
prevent deep freezing, and keep the
wheat roots under a mulch, which makes
the soil light and promotes rapid growth
in early spring. A very small quantity
of any rich fertilizer will thus often add
immensely to the yield-nct entirely by
its direct effect, but in preventing WIN
ter-killing and heaving out Of the plant.
In no other way can l explain the ex
traordinary results have known from
a small application of superphosphate-
often ten to fifteen bushels Of wheat, or
600 to 900 pounds from 200 pounds of
superphosphate.- Correspondent Conn

Sowing CLOVER IN THE FALL.-0uT
own experience is decidedly against fall
sowing of clover seed Occasionally, in
very mild winters, and with the ground
well covered by snow, the young plants
might survive, but this rarely happens.
Young clover is a very tender plant. and
very liable 10 be ''hoven" out of the
grouud.i.s roots striking downward rath-
than spreading laterally. Even if clover
should survive the winter, it would hard
ly reach full growth the following sum
mer. Hence it would not be advisable
to SOW clover seed in the fall, even If it
would certainly survive the winter Such
clover plants would undoubtedly seed
the second season, and the result would
be that the plant would perfect its seed
and die with the smallest possible
growth. This is exactly the reverse of
what is wanted Sow clover seed Us ear
iy as possible in the spring, then apply
gypsum or land plaster, to give it vigor-
ous growth, and leave it unpastured til
late In the fall. This would allow the
largest possible increase of roots. which
would insrre heavy crop the second
year. SuclisA course is most beneficial
70 the land, whether die crop be nown
or plowed under.
Ia localities fsr.l,,. south than Indi
ana, fall sowing of clover seed might be
safe, but we would not advise it in amy

far, far away from loving friends; and here
with a patience and cheerfulness that dis

when the voice of the beloved master called.

Indian Affairs.

The question of Indian civilization
is one of the new problems Of the
day. The administration of Presi-
dent Grant has been working in this
direction for some years, and the
Commissioner of Indian Affairs, in
his annual report, dated Nov. l, 1875,
bears testimony to the fact that the
CIVILIZATION of Indians is not only en-
tirely practicable, but is fairly under
way. He says:
The statistics of the present year,
gathered with more than usual care,
substantially verify the count and esti-
mates Of last year, making total as
now enumerated of 27S,963. Taking
labor which Indians undertake for
themselves, and its results, as a stand
ard of progress, the reports show forty
two thousand able Indians, representing
not far from the same number of Indian
families, undertaking self-support by
labor with their own hands, who have
raised 2,404, 900 bushels of wheat and
other small grains, and AL $50 bushels
of potatoes and other vegetables. The
fields under cultivation by individual
Indians planting for themselves aggre-
gate 323, 1896 acres, a larger area by 1000
acres than ever before reported, and
nearly 100000 acres more than were
cultivated in 1871, gain of l45 per
cent. in five years, and of 600 per cent.
In ten years. Additional lands broken
and ready for cultivation next year ag-
gregate ,l46 acres. Five years ago
10,329 Indian families were living in
family houses. There are now Is, 1862, a
gain of ninety-two per cent.
The Commissioner says: "The
mode adopted for the last few years
of procuring nominations of agents
through the several religious bodies
of the country has worked most adj
mirably, and most devotedly trust
that the Government will still be in
clined to call upon the religious bod
les of the country to name the proper
men for Indian agents"

A DEMOCRATIC Congress. we fear'
has not improved the morals OF
Washington. Evidence. The cor
respondent of ehe Cincinnati Com
mercial, writing Nov. s0th, says:
.Jobp Chamberlain has purchased
the King Club House, and will use it
for the accommodation of his palatial
gambling establishment, giving up
his lease on the house recently occu-
pied by the British Legation.
Then there was an attempt to in
augurate little amusement" over
the election of Speaker. The same
correspondent writing a day later,
gives us the particulars, to-wit:
1t was attempted to sell pools on
the Speakershlp this evening, but as
the highest bids were % for Randall,
II for Kerr and 5 for the field, and
as the projectors would not sell for
less than a hundred, the attempt was
abandoned.
This decentralization is further man
ifested in the following extract, from
the same correspondent, dated Dec,
3, to-wit:
If the hotel lobbies were thronged
last night, they are jammed and
packed tonight with vociferous hu-
manity. If bad whisky was con-
sumed by the gallon last night, it is
being consumed by the barrel to-
night. If men fatigued themselves
to the point of illness last night, they
are fastening to untimely graves to-
night, through unremitting work. If
they were excited last night, they
are clean daft tonight. If they eX-
agqerated and distorted the truth
somewhat last night. they are dis
counting Ananias and Sapphira in
downright lying tonight. 1t is a
thing to be thankful for that it will
be ended by this time to morrow
night, but it will take a regimen of
soda, tea and toast, bromide and ju-
dicious seclusion for the next week
to bring them around again, and a
fearful lot of wrecks will scatter over
the Union on Monday and Tuesday,
and relieve Washington of the loud
est, noisiest, cheapest, seediest and
drunkest crowd that we have had for
many years.
This is bad beginning for a Re-
form Congress.

Ex-SpEAKER BLAINE in order

Ex-SPEAKER BLAINE, in order to
get rid of the school question agita-
ton, and at the same time relieve the
country from the strife between rell-
gious denominations which that agi-
tation necessarily arouses, proposes
the following amendment to the Ma
tional Constitution, to-wit:
.ssNo State shall make any law respect
;ng an establishment Of rellglon or pro,
hitting the free exercise thereof ana
no money raised by taxation In any
State for the support of public schools,
or derived from any public fund there-
for. shall ever be under the control of
any religious sect, nor shall any money
so raised ever be divided between reli-
gious sects or denominations"
The first part of the amendment,
respecting an establishment of reli-
gion," may seem unnecessary to
many readers, but nevertheless it is a
fact, as Mr.. BLAINE states, that a ma
jority of the people in any State can,
if they desire it, have an established
church, under which the minority
may be taxed for the erection OF
church edifices which they never en-
ter and for the support of creeds
which they do not believe. There is
nothing in the National Constitution
to prevent this action on the part OF
the people of the States. Indeed, IN
the early history of some of the New
England States, this power was ex-
ercised, and the minority were taxed
at the will of the majority, to sup
port an established church. This
provision, therefore, is one that will
commend its appropriateness to the
judgment of the American people.
The other part of the amendment,
regarding our public schools, is like
wise wise and necessary. Its adop-
tion would forever put at rest the pub
lie school agitation, and place the
system beyond the reach of secta-
rian controversy or theological dis
putation.

struction by a coalition of the
native Africans, who have made
war upon 1t. In a battle fought
October 10th, the allies gained
complete victory over the army
of the Republic, capturing can
non, ammunition, etc. Withal, the
government has no money and no
credit. Unless aid is sent from the

whether the small space wrested from

can long be retained.
