A Rule that Doesn't Work Both Ways.

For a good many years the United
States was much exercised over the
unenlightened policy of the Chinese
in excluding foreigners. These short

and our wares, shut out ALSO the be-
nign influences of civilization.
AZ last the barbarians threw open
their gates. Z We rejoiced fdr China.
We Joined in the International jubilee
of .disinterested joy at this evidence of
growing enlightenment. In other
words we joined in the rush to get
inside and turn ain honest penny.

propriety of restricting Chinese immi-
grafton? Has the almond-eyed .Ce>

Vitality Of Weed Seeds,

Venture the assertion that the ef-
forts usually put forth to destroy the
chickweed always result in increasing
the pests, for the stellaria family, Of
which there are seven or eight varie-
ties, possess the power of ripening
their seeds, if need be, before they are
half matured in size; so that when
the plants are chopped up by the hoe
and left to die on the surface of the
soil, millions of these seeds will ripen
sufficiently to retain the terminating
power, and that, too, when the seeds
are SO small as to be scarcely visible.
The S. Media, as botanists name the
chickweed that infeSs our gardens,
produces seed as hard as shot. The
same, too, may be said of the purslane
and many other weeds. If these
weeds be merely taken up and carried
to the dung heap, the seeds will not
rot, if in an ordinary compost, but will
be brought back to the garden where
they will grow again. To fight weeds
-effectually, they should be chopped or
pulled out as soon as they appear
above ground, and should be at once
removed, not to the dung-hill, but to
some separate limbo in a corner, ex-
pressly set apart, and there lndis-
turbed let them severely alone year af'
ter year to rot on the surface of the
ground.
Weight of Honey for Wintering Bees.
Mrs. Upper says that in the case of
a number Of strong colonies Of bees
the consumption of honey in October
was 4 lbs. in November, 4 IL lbs. !;
December, 2 l-2 lbs. January, lbs. !;
February, l-2 lbs. !; March lbs. and
April, 1-2 lbs; a total of 30 lbs.
This was ascertained out of doors.
But as the amounts vary in various To-
calities and seasons,i it will be safe to see
that the hives contain more than this
amount when the bees go into winter
quarters.
Every empty hive on being made
ready for occupancy, should be care
fully weighed, and the weight duly
marked upon it, or registered in a
book. When the bees are put into it
they can also be weighed, and the
weight of combs and honey also be as
certained from week to week. Such
facts will always be of interest and i'm
portance.

Breed for Milk as Well as for Beef.

Breed for Milk as Well as for Beef.
Dr.. Schneider, of Thionville, treats
an important subject from a new
point of view. He demands not
encourage precocity in animals for
milk as we'll as for meat? In the lat
ter case the object is to fatten an an
imal in thirty.six instead Of sixty
months, by good feeding. On the
contrary, the powers Of reproduction
that is, yielding of mill-are most act
i've or precocious where the. dietary is
sober, is not miserable. Poor families
are most prolific, and weeds most pro-
ductive. Fecundity is the ally of
humble rations, and fat, the emblem
of opulence, is not IN attribute of viz
ility. Embonpoint is incompatible
with the faculty of generation. If a
sterile COW or an OK exact thirty-six
months and good diet, to be precocious-
ly converted into meat, a heifer could
in that period have produced, upon
modest regimen, one calf, perhaps
two, and from twelve to fourteen
months Of milk. The production Of
milk is less costly than that of. meat.
1t can be less extensively disposed of,
and if meat has increased in price, so
also have butter and cheese. The
properties for fattening are but one
and the same thing, and pre-exist in
the animal only, but aptitudes cannot
be developed at the same time. Thus
in France, Dutch or Normal COWS are
kept for the express purpose Of yield
ing milk to the calves of the Durham
breed.
Experiments in Fertility Of Soils.
Mr.. Lawes, of England, made exper-
iments with soil owned in one family
q thousand years. He sowed a piece
continuously to wheat for twenty-sey-
en- years, with an average crop of ff-
teen and five-eighths bushels per acre.
A piece in barley nineteen years gave
twenty bushels per acre, and apiece in
grass gave two Thousand and six hun
dred pounds a year. This yield repre-
sented the condition of the soil. with
the ordinary cultivation and rotation
as practised; but similar land Of the
same farm, to which fourteen tons of
manure were applied, produced thirty.
six bushels Of wheat and thirty-si
bushels of barley; and with two hun
dred pounds Of phosphate, it produced
forty'eight bushels of barley. This
again shows the value Of manure in
England, and the increased fertility Of
it through the application of manure,
and any farmer knowing the cost of
manure in his locality, may easily es-
innate whether it will pay him to use
it or not, bearing in mind always that
it is much cheaper and easier to keep
up the fertility of the soil, than to
bring it back, when once it is impov-
erished.
