THE VALUE OF PLAsTER.

An Ohio farmer writes The Western
Rural as follows The past few
seasons have been very dry, as all in
this part Of the State viii bear me wit
ness; and a large part, probably two
thirds, Of the clover seed sOwh IN this
vicinity during that time, has been
lost. In the spring Of 1873, l sowed
one field Of eight acres to oats, thor
Oughly narrowed one way, then sowed
on clover seed and cross-harrowed the
field. then put on about three pecks
of plaster to the acre, and the result
was a good yield of oats and a fine catch
Of clover which grew finely throughout
the summer, and last season produced
a large burden Of number one
clover hay. This 1 am now
feeding to my calves, for 1 prefer it to
any other, when properly cured; for
calves should have the best. The same
week in which l seeded the eIght-acre
lot, I seeded one of four acres, and in
precisely the same manner, save that l
sOwed plaster on two acres of it. The
other two acres went without plaster.
Now for the result. Where the plaster
was sown the clover grew as finely as
in the eight-acre lO1, and produced as
much hay last season, while on that
without plaster the yield of oats was
much lighter, and what clover seed
sprouted, or nearly all, died from the
effects of the droutb; so much so that
it would not pay for harvesting. The
soil was sandy-what we term here
sand-knoIls, and poor at that.

TIE AGRgCULTURAL interest.

TOthe Union and American:
HAMPToN's STATION, March.2, 1S75.-
am q farmer and have been watching
with some deglee Of anxiety the move
ments Of the Legislature in reference to
the agricultural interest.
am greatly pleased to see a bill which
has been introduced by Senator March
banks, establishing 4 Bureau Of Agricul-
ture, Statistics and Mines.
This is a move in the right direction,
and the only one which l have seen calcu-
lated to give relief to the farming interest
Of the State. We need manufactures, but
can never get them until we have a regular
ly appointed comm ssiOn TO collect and
disseminate statistics.
The Bureau Of Agriculture has done no
bly,. Its work has given Tennessee a char
acter wherever the English language is
spoken, but its machinery is too complex.
IL has too many offices of CircumlOcutiOn
and adyisement to Re entirely and peTma-
nently effective. TIE bill under consider
alton remedies these defects, and hope to
see it become a law.
l DO not think the appropriation large
enough. 1t should be at least $4,000 a
year, so as TO enable the Commissioner to
carry on his work faster. Every year lost
in this work is a serious loss to the State.
We want cspital-we need labor, and this
Bureau would give us both, besides pro-
tecting us in the purchase Of fertilizers.
hope YOU will usa your great influence
in forwarding the bill. Il is decidedly the
most practicable proposition, tending d.
rectly to the interest Of the farmer, vet pre-
scented, does honor &c. the heart and head Of
Senator MarChbanks, and should give him a
commanding Influence in the State.

HIS FIRST VETO.

GOV. Porter DIsaPPrOVes the Bill TO
Tax Losing Litigants With the Jury
Fees-The senate stands by Its Ae.
ton.
The following message from Gov. Por-
ter was laid before The Senate, yesterday:
Gentlemen of the Senate: l cannot ap-
prove Senate bill No. IA, entitled ian act
to tax the losing party with jury fees in all
civil suits, aud TO repeal sections 4O36 and
4O37 of the Code" and return it with my
objections. The theory that parties liti-
CANT shall paw the costs incident to the trial
Of their own controversies is a sound one,
but when the State summons the citizen
as a Juror, and comoels him to serve under
the penalty of fine or imprisonment, or
both, and to look t. the dosing party" for
his compensation, ] submit that this is an
act of injustice and positive wrong to the
citizen. Under the operations of this
bill he is required to leave his farm or
workshop, ID abandon his own private busi-
ness, at any sacrifice, for an indefinite peri
cd, and then, foT his pay as juror, COM
PEELED by law to lock to the closing party"
who may or may not be sufficiently re-
spOnsible to make tecure and certain the
amount adiudged against him. If this bill
becomes a law il may be that the verdict of
jury will never be Influenced by the SOL
vency or insolvency Of parties litigant; but
can very well see bow, under its opera
tions, it might occur that a corrupt juror
would never consent to a verdict against an
insolvent defendant.
This objection to the bill can be avoided
and the purpose Of the General Assembly
accomplished by the passage of an act I'M
der which judgment over can be taken
against the 'losing party" for all costs paid
by the county, or by increasing the tax now
imposed on lawsuits; the average revenue
derived by the State from this source is
about one hundred and ten thousand dol
lars per annum; the counties can levy and
collect the same amount, and, l suppose,
very generally exercise the power. The
original purpose of the lawmakers Of Ten
nessee, in levying this tax, was to re-
imburse the Safe and counties
for the sum paid for judicial
salaries and for the costs Of the
jury system. The power Of the State to i'm
pose this tax is not now a question, and if
it is increased fifty Psr cent and a reasOna-
bic tax levied on sui before Justices Ofthe
Peace, in accordance with the recommended
ton Ofmy immediate predecessor, it Is be-
lieved that a sufficient revenue would be
derived to retrieve the State and counties
Of all cost incident ID courts'and juries.

nations against localities, individuals

of each case to be decided by twelve
good and true men In our courts. The
railroad business is so complicated that
any attempt to enumerate the various
forms that unjust determinations may
assume must result in failure. Inthis,
as in many other matters, we do not
need more law so much as stricter and
swifter enforcement of the law.

solves by a vote Of l49 to so, that no

bill devotIng an untold amount Of

by love of the soldier, but of the sol
dier's vote; yet it narrowly escaped de.
feat in tie Senate, the ballot being
thirty to thirty, and the vote Of the
