In Fowls.

A writer N the Poultry World argues that
there is no foundation for the theory that
one breed OF domestic fowls is more tender
and juicy than another; any fowl badly fed
or cared for is, necessarily, poor, "stingy"
and unpalatable, but other things equal,
no difference can be discovered in the taste
OF the flesh OF the various breeds.

A couple OF farmers were discussing the
propriety OF cultivating corn for the fourth
time during dry, warm weather, in our
presence yesterday. One of them advised
il, but the other was IN doubt. Said he !:
"If plow my corn again, it will break
of great many roots and cause the corn
to fire-that is, curl up; and do not be-
lieve it Is good thing to do We ven
tured the advice that, if the cultivator was
run shallow, and at distance from the
row, it would do no harm, and to this he
assented. There is this difference between
cultivating in dry and vet soil: In
dry time the plant needs all its roots to
supply moisture, and they run near the
surface. In wet weather the loss of por-
ton OF its roots does not affect the plant
much, but has a tendency to check its
growth. This induces the informatio of
seed or ears. Then, We should say, in
dry time, cultivate shallow, and avoid all
injury to the roots but in vet seasons, root
prune to stop growth.

All kinds Of stock require salt Cattle,
horses, hogs and sheep should receive their
full rations of salt at regular intervals, and
the shorter the intervals the better it will
be for the stock. The better plan would be
to let all kinds of stock have free access to
salt at will. IL no such arrangement Can
be made salt should be given at stated times
during the week. 1t is always better to
have regularity in the matter otherwise
stock is apt to be neglected, and the times
for sailing becomes protracted and ftful.

My heliotropes are doing badly. They will
not grow or blossom. What shall i do with
themg MYRTLE
Davenport, Iowa.
Answer:-They are probably pot-bound.
If in four-inch pots, and what florists call
drawn, that is, attenuated as to length, cut
them back to within say four inches of the
ground, or leave about two inches where
they branch. Turn them out of the pots,
trim off the roots next the pot, and re-pot
in five inch pots, in one-third sharp sand,
one-third rich loan, and one-third thor
oughly decomposed manure, we'll mixed.
Water and place until established. The
heliotrope is gross feeder. That is, it
likes rich soil If light, 30 much the bet
ter. For this reason an occasional appli-
cation Of liquid manure is beneficial.
Next autumn transfer into six-inch pots
and they will give satisfaction.

A little one.horse Democratic news
paper. down on the Truekcs. affects to
think the explanation Of the Republican
State Central Committee as to why the
Wren plank was omitted in the publish
ment OF the Eureka Convention platform
Is rather too thin. The opinion OF the
Democracy in the matter Is Of little con-
sequence anyhow. therefore they are at
liberty to fret over 1t all they see fit. In
the official records OF the Convention, as
transmitted by the Secretary Of it to the
Secretary Of the Central Committee. the
platform Is given with the plank omitted.
consequently the Committee had no au-
tboriiy for inserting 1t. In fact it would
not have since been inserted were IL not
that full and ample inquiry has estab.

adopted. but | eft out by the Secretary Of

was clearly and simply n clerical error
which has been officially corrected.

number Of spectators to-day. Mellow

aud that 1t involved an entire change OF
plans OF the campaign, and prevented
continued separation OF the two bodies
Of the enemy. and this withdrawal was
made without his knowledge. He took
King away with him from Porter on the
29th. after viewing tile situation. When

gagged within an hour with the enemy.
and he would get around to the right and
join Reynolds. After some discussion

Tho fifth annual meeting OF the Ne

day. II has proven n success financially
as we'll rs In the more important view
OF making q ereditable showing Of the
OF this State. The annual
meetings Of the Society are Of the great
es, Importance to the growth aud proper
development Of our young State. aud
the beneficial results may be seen in the
steady improvement which each years
exhibition has shown. Farmers and
ranehmen are encouraged to breed bet
ter stock. and to perfect their agricul-
tural systems by the annual competition
which Is furnished them for the prizes
OF the Society at Reno. II inspires
them with an honest pride in the prose-
cution Of their business. without the
possession Of which neither artisan nor
artist can ever hope to attain a success
worth having. The farmer who takes
the prize for growing the largest beet
this year will strive hard to take another
next year. and the cheerful farmers
wife whose bread Is awarded the palm
will find her hours Of toll less wearisome
aud her burdens less hard to bear a. she
reflects upon the victory which she has
gained over her competitors at Reno.
The exhibition at the Pavilion this
year has been exceptionally fine. 1t
demonstrates that with all the advan-
tages OF soil and climate, California can
produce nothing in the agricultural line
which We cannot match here in the
SaOe.brush State. where nature seems to
have left man to struggle unaided in the
pursuit Of perfection. We grow as fine
potatoes, as large squashes. and As lus-
cious fruits. by the practical use OF irri-
CATION, as can be found in the most IA
vored regions OF our sister State. Our
flowers have all the beauty aud all the
fragrance Of their species in any part OF
the world. as is amply evidenced by the
exhibit made in the Pavilion by X. Z.
Chaplin OF tn. Arlington Nurseries. As
breeders OF stock We are uuexcelled. and
the number Of fine animals on exhibition
at the race track proves that we are
rapidly increasing this branch OF our
productions. The Society is doing a
good work in thus fostering and eneour-
aging our State industries. and we hope
to rank Nevada at no distant day among
the most advanced Of u sister States
in all that pertains to hardy thrift and
honest industry.
