of the intention. "You can afford

Mr.. Campbell, of Meeker, proposes
an inquiry into the disposition made
by the University of the revenue de-
rived from the agricultural college
grant, and also into the efforts by
University officers to maintain the
agricultural college department.
When tho inquiry has been made Mr..
Campbell will learn that the chief
difficulty is in obtaining pupils. We
understand that President Folwell
has been unceasirg and unwearying
inendeavoringto persuade stu dents to
take the agricultural college course,
but without encouraging success. The
farmers sons who come up to the
University want to be politicians,
lawyers, physicians, preachers-any-
thing but farmers. In short, agri-
cultural pursuits involve too much
of hard labor and isolation from So
ciety, amusements and opportunities
of gratifying ambition, to suit the
notions of young men of the day.

The past fifteen years of high pric' 8
have been delusive to many; have
bnilt up wrong ideas as to real val
ues, SO that now, when the relapse
has come, and, as usual in such case,
prices have gone little to the other
extreme, many are discouraged, dis
appointed, and, it is to be feared, will
allow the improvement made in the r
stock during that time to be in
measure lost. They cannot sit down
and wait for better times. Stock
will not maintain an improved con-
dition without continued care. The
march towards a primitive condition
commences as soon as left to depend
on itself. Every eater7prising farmer.
or stock grower, will continue on in
the same course, with the same ef-
forts to improve their stock as when
realizing high prices.

Here is another sort of swindle
that is being perpetrated upon far
mers over in Wisconsin. Not long
since two men with lumber wagon
went through Winnebago county
and vicinity, from house to house,
asking for samples of wheat to the
amount of peck or half bushels,
which they said they were going to
send to Chicago for inspection by
keenc, the great wheat speculator,
who intended getting up a corner on
wheat soon, and was going to send
agents all through the country buy
ing up wheat from farmers at an ad-
vance of ten cents per bushel in or
der to effect the corner. The men
claimed to be agents of Keene. AL
most every grower complied by Civ
ing at least a half bushrl, and the
name of the contributor was duly re-
corded to give the transaction a bus
mess like appearance. 1t is stated
that several parties were out at the
same time on this expedition, and
when they each get a big load they
took t! e wheat to Non III, sold it and
skipped out. The operators are so
cool and deliberate in their transac-
tons as to throw the farmers entirely
off their guard. One farmer told
them he suspected all was not right,
and they laughed at him, and finally
made the thing look SO straight that
he finally dealt them out half a BUSH
el, with an apology.

tic medicine that can be employed cleans
ing the stomach and bowels, and even the

they stimulate the digestive organs and
promote vigorous health.
AYERS PILLS have been known for
more than quarter Of a century, and have
obtained worldwide reputation for their
virtues. They correct diseased action in
the several assimilative organs of the
body, and are so composed that obstr,,c-
tions within their range can rarely with
stand or evadc them. Not only do they
cure the everyday complaints Of every
body, but also formidable and dangerous
diseases that have baflled the best of
human skill. While they produce power
ful effects, they are, at the same time, the
safest and best physic for children. BY
their aperient action they grippe much less
than the common purgatives, and never
give pain when the bowels are not inflamed.
They reach the vital fountains of the blood,
and strengthen the system by freeing it
from the elements Of weakness.
Adapted to all ages and conditions in
all climates, containing neither calomel
nor any deleterious drug, these Pills may
be taken with safety by anybody. Their
sugar-coating preserves them ever fresh,
and makes them pleasant to take; while
being purely vegetable, no harm can arise
from their use in any quantity.

ing but ultimate ruin stares that far
mer in the face who does not pay
personal attention to the minute de-
tails of his farm. There are thou
sand small leaks about the manage
mcnt Of an ordinary farm, that, if
not closely attended to, will surely
bring the most handwriting farmer
to ruin and bankruptcy. A large
portion Of the farmers can attribute
their present condition to no other
cause than lack of close attention
to the small details Of the farm.
Close supervision of the machinery,
tools, stock and their feed, a place
for everything and everything in its
place. No hired help is as much in
terested in attending to these duties
AS the farmer himself. Such a course
would in few months or years at
most, enable many farmers who are
now on down hill grade a again

will surely make Roadway against
what would otherwise look doubtful.

There is a good deal of interest
felt by the New York grain trade by
the plague in the south of Russia.
The theory is that the military cord
on and naval quarantine will lay
practical embargo on the Black sea
export trade, and the existence and
dread of the plague will discourage
agricultural production, so that the
market for America grain in Europe
will be enlarged and prices will rise.

It's claimed that blue grass is one
of the best grasses, known for early
and late pasture. The seed ripens
in June and falls off, when the sue
ceeding rains give it vitility ard it
pushes out its long rich, slender
leaves, one or two feet in length,
which in autumn falls over, mating
the whole surface with luscious herb
age. Upon the fields that have been
carefully protected until other for
age is exhausted, the cattle are turned
and fattened in winter. It main
tains its freshness and nutritive pro-
perties in spite of frosts, and the cat
tie easily reach it through the light
SHOWS, such as Minnesota winters
are usually favored or afflicted with.
Whenever the natural grasses of the
prairies are cropped or fed closely,
blue grass can be sown, and when
established on the natural sod, it
forms the best pasture known. 1t is
recommended, as a means of getting
land under the plow into blue grass,
to seed to timothy; the second year
turn on the stock and SOW in May or
June three pounds of blue grass seed
per acre. More seed can be used to
advantage if the object be to convert
the field rapidly into blue grass pas
ture.

Sugar From Amber Cane.

Mr.. o. c. Gibbs, who attended the
sessions of the Amber Cane Conven-
tion at St. Louis, writing to The Chi
cago Tribune, says: ''Ihe greatest
interest centered about the samples
of Miller & Kenny, of Minnesota.
instead Of sending quart bottle as
sample, they sent barrel of last
fall's crop, manufactured for syrups.
On opening it in St. Louis it was
found to be saven-eights full of
mush-sugar. Portions of this, taken
from the barrel in the presence of
the convention, were placed in lit
tie hand centrifugal making 1890
revolutions per minute, and in about
five minutes freed from molasses,
producing beautiful, light straw
colored, dry sugar, yielding about
seventy-iive per cent. of the weight
of the mush-sugar in dry. A sample
of this sugar was taken to Belcher's
refinery, tested with the polariscope,
and pronounced to contain eighty
nine per cent. of genuine cane-sugar
the balance being water, glucose,
gum, and other foreign substances"

straigh rows, show stitchings of bright
colored silk at regular intervals, or
again the silk mixtures are thickly
scattered with no regularity whatever.
jacquard goods displaying bright silk
en- flowers on a dark ground are largely
imported, but in opposite style, many
fabrics are woven with dark invisible
stripes half obscured by grayish
cloudings. The bandana ideas of the
summer are repeated in very bold
bright plaids with satiue, Scotch
Cheviot and twilled surfaces, and
these are in great numbers. But the
chief novelty is the introduction of
fine soft dress goods having cashmere
and broche effects. Fancy an Indian
Shawl, striped or otherwise, reduced
down in pattern to less than dozenth
part Of the original size, and you have
an idea of what these novel and very
beautiful materials resemble.
