VALUABLE GRAssEs.--The follow

VALUABLE ORASSES. - uo IOllOW-
ing paragraph is taken from the
Aryls: "Judge Swan has presented
us with three specimens of native
grass cultivated by the celebrated
John Bennett, of Whatcom. One
is a specimen of native timothy,
found by MIR. B. on the Cariboo
Mountains, and named by him
Mountain Timothy-a grass that
grows best in land that is cold and
wet. Stock animals of all kinds are
very fond of it. Another specimen
is an orchard grass, which Mr.. Ben
nett says it is the best pasture grass
he knows of, but it is not good for.
hay as it will lodge. 1t is from old
Fort Bellingham, and was intro
duced there by the soldiers many
years ago. The specimen is the
second cut of last season and only
20 days growth. The other speci-
men is the celebrated Bennett Rye
Grass, found by Mr.. Bennett near
Williams Lake in British Column
bia in 1862, and cultivated by him
ever since. twill produce more and
better hay to the acre than any
other kind of grass known. 1t
should be cultivated like timothy.
These fine specimens of valuable
grass are on exhibition in the Argus
Office, and we invite agricultural
lists and all others interested in the
development of the resources Of our
Territory to call and examine them. u
| Nor NEcLssARY.-During the early
days of the present session of Con-
gress, the subject of answering
the Presidents Message was under
advisement. This was an invariable,
custom from the first meeting OF
Congress down to 1920. A select
committee of the House was always
appointed for the purpose. 1t was
urged, as a motive for reviving the
practice, that an opportunity would
thus be afforded to place upon record
the deliberate judgment Of the peo-
pies representatives concerning the
repeated violations of the Constitu.
ton and the laws of which President
Grant has been guilty, and thus
transmit to posterity just condem-
nation of his Administration. The
subject was finally dismissed, on the
ground that the infamy of present
rule is too indellibly impressed upon
memory for it soon to pass into OBJ.
livion, and the seal of popular con-
domination placed upon it will re.
main as long as there is occasion TO,
reviving bitter remembrances.
