Onion Culture.

Onion seed should be sown as carly
in spring as the earth can be brought
into a dry, friable state. If the soil is
clayey, it should be plowed rough in the
fall, and the seed sown upon the fine, dis
entegrated surface that may then be thus
obtained without replowing. II the soil
Is inclined to be light, it should be ren.
dered compact with the roller, and sur
face tilth then worked up for the seed.
II the land is weedy, the first crop will
probably cost more than its value when
raised. In this case it would be alto
gether better TO give a season of fallow
and heavy manuring, or some preparato-
ry that may be easily kept clean. There
is no better one than early potatoes,
which gives the late summer and fall to
perfect the cleansing of the land.
The ground having been leveled and
smoothed, run the plank or light roller
over the surhce-this. TO assist in the
first cultivation while the plants are yet
young. Sow in drills, equi distant, and
at the rate OF four or five pounds of seed
per scre-the latter quantity preferable.
When the crop is three or four inches
high, we prefer to cut out supernumer-
ary plants. with hoe or other suitable
implement, leaving the punches of plants
at distance of nine or ten inches. These
may be trimmed TO three, four or five in
aplace, according as you want the indi-
vidusl bulbs large or medium in size.
The seed may be uniformly and accurate
ly sown with any of the better class of
garden drills.
High manuring, perfect tith,
smoothness Of surface, early and thick
seeding in accurate drills, an early use
OF the wedding cultivator between, and
rs clo'e to the rows as possible, thinning
the crop as soon as they begin to fill the
drills, and the removal OF superfuous
plants at the second wedding, will ensure
success, and that at a minimum cost and
above all, at profit to the cultivator.
This, and never allowing weeds to make
headway once the ground is cleared may
he called the sum Of good practice in the
cultivation, not only Of onions, but of
every other crop in the garden. In fact,
the same cleanliness observed by our
best farmers in the cultivation Of the
corn crop, will ensure a good garden to
every homestead in the west.- Prairie

In both theory and practice il is too
often the case that lime is considered to
be manure in the true intent and
meaning of the term, an !, except in a
few special cases, the farmer who adopts
the theory will, in the end, suffer for it.
1t is true that lime, to limited extent,
enters directly into the composition of
the crop, and 10 this extent it is ma

PEsrH, November 5.-The Hungarian
government has allowed the rails inten.
ded for a railroad in Little Wallachia,
which was seized as contraband of war,
to be taken TO Roumania.

was wounded during the recent fighting
and has since died.
LONDON, November ga Vienna dis.

Infantry and cavalry, aud a cavalry de-
tachment has penetrated the Yablanitza
Pass in pursuit of the ~retresting Turks.
A Turkish force, numbering between
three and four thousand men, from south
Of the Balkans, attacked the Russian

three hours fighting the Turks retreated,

TIE Sunday question excited a good
deal of discussion at the late church
ongre Of the Church of England.
An address delivered by the Rev. Brooke
Lambert was interesting. He thought
that the Sabbath aud Sunday are distinct
ordinances, and that no directions with
respect to the one day had anything to
do with the observance Of the other.
Beside, even the Sabbath was made for
man. BE argued. says. the London
Times of October l2th, that the trans
ference Of Sabbath observanees to Sun
day rested on no authority of scripture,
of the church. or even Of Puritan au-
thority, and he quoted Luther, Calvin
and Knox 10 show their views and to
support his own. His contention was
that God was not honored by idleness
and ineptity, that the English Sunday
was not really better than the Cont
mental Sabbath, and that as religion was
e to raise the whole man, not
merely was the opening Of museums,
free Libraries, and art galleries justif.
able, but was in the trues sense re-
ligious. he eontsnded that the employ
meut of attendants at museums would
divert rather than increase Sunday
labor already used. lie answer to
the statement that the w~orkingmen
would not use the museums if
opened, he quoted the experience Of
Birmingham. The figures we're in 1876:
Museums aud art galleries averaged on
weekday evenings, 254; averaged on
Sundays, $40; free library, daily average
Of books issued, Gil; the average issued
on Sunday was 426 The total Of books
Issued on Sunday was 22,558-nsmely:
OF theology, 1874; Of history and ~trav;l,
37O2; o. law, 23S; Of science, 25O7; Of
poetry. l2l6; Of periodicals, 1882; cur
rent periodicals, 1879; of miscellaneous
works, 1900. Such was the result of az
experiment tried in q country where
Sabbatarisn p~rejudices prevailed, where
it vas thought better to do nothing than
to do useful work. [Cries Of No, no.")
Their ehnpels and churches we're not
filed on Sundays, willie the public
houses we're crowded. 1t was because
there was no counter attraction which
might rave some; because tie Sunday
restrictions now in force rested no
authority Of scripture or church, that 10
the name Of religion and in the name Of
God be pleaded for the restoration Of
Sunday TO its proper use. Applause
and expressions Of dissent
