under this resolution, the contem-
plated postponement of the ques-
tion until the views of China could
be learned would no doubt have
been secured. Instead he did MOTH
nothing; and when his message of
December, 1878, was found to con-
tain no information on the subject,
although several other topics in
trusted to him about the same
time were reported upon, the old
dispute was taken up, and resulted
in the passage of that disgraceful
bill of treaty violation which, in
response to widespread public sem
timent, Hayes vetoed.
Another year has gone, yet all
that Hayes has to say on this
question in his message of last
Monday is as follows:
"The Government of China has signified
its willingness to consider the question of
the emigration of its subjects to the United
States with a dispassionate fairness,
and to cooperate in such measures as may
tend to prevent injurious consequence to
the United States. The negotiations are
still proceeding, and will be pressed with
diligence"
Considering that this subject was
committed to Hayes's care eight
cen months ago, that neglect caused
the Chinese debates of Congress
last winter, and that even now he
puts Congress off with a general
statement which means nothing,
the announcement that negotia-
tions will be pressed with diligence
should deceive nobody.
The general desire of China not
to iDjure the United States by the
emigration of its people was learn
ed more than q year ago, when the
Chinese embassy established itself
in Washington; but the inquiry of
Congress was directed to the spe-
cific point of the practicability of
modifying the treaty. If Mr.. Page
and his fellow members from the
Pacific Coast make good their un-
pleasant threat to revive the Mon
golian question by bills to violate
the treaty, the inexcusable neglect
of Mr.. Hayes will have furnished
some pretext for their course.-M

Hayes ON the Chinese Question.

According to Mr.. Page of Califor-
MIA the Pacific coast Congressman
have resolved to revive the anti
Chinese crusade at the earliest
practicable moment, and to push it
until their object is secured. Such
a misuse of the winters session is
not u pleasant prospect; and for its
possibility the country may thank
the neglect of the Hayes Admins
tration.
A year and a half ago Congress
passed a joint resolution asking Mr..
Hayes to open negotiations with
China, with n view to procuring
modi dificatious of the Burlingame
treaty. This was the sensible up
shot OF very immoderate dispute,
during which some dlsgraceful bills
had been introduced. Had Mr..
Hayes promptly done his duty

FALL FLOWING.

The New Eng land Farmer says
whether 10 pillow in fell or spring is
a question that has been discussed
for many years, and will continue to
be discussed for s great many years
vet to come. 1t ia one Of those
questions that is continually present
ing itself, and must be answered in
each case according to the peculiar
circumstances attending it. As a
general rule it may, perhaps, be
safe to say pillow light sandy land in
the spring, and heavy clays in the
fall. Heavy clay land seems to re-
ouire the alternate freezing and
thawiug of winter to puIverize and
Fl. it for the next years crop, while
light lands needs no pulVerization.
Sandy land will often lose much by
blowing away when not covered by
growing crops. Yet there are ex>
ceptions to this as TO all general
rules. For corn crop it is thought,
by many, that spring blowing is de
cidedIy lest on any land, provided
the blowing is done late, just before
planting, and the plOw not allowed
TO run more than three or four ipch>
es deep. 1t is certainly a great
mistake to plow heavy land in
spring, whether old ground or sod,
before it is dry enough to crumble
and puIverize If plowed while too
wet it is rendered lumpy, and the
Jumps will remain unpnlverized all
summer. Wet land plowed III the
fall will have the advantage of the
winter freezing to pulverize the
hard Jumps, and this may be and
probably is one reason why many
farmers have supposed that fall
blowing is always preferable.

SEED CORN

In selecting seed-corn, observe
the time of ripeniDg, number OF ears
upon the stalk, size of the stalk, and
the perfection Of the ears. Corn
which ripeus earliest in the field
other things being favorable, is to
be preferred. Choose from stalks
that have two or three we'll develop
ed ears, selecting the ear that grows
low on the stalk. Eers which grow
on foot stalks are Objectionable. A
full sized ear, on which the rows
are regular, well flied out at the
end and but little larger at the butt
than in the middle, if it has ripened
in good season and grows low on a
moderate sized stalk and is
taken from the standing corn, is first
class for the variety to which 1t be-
longs.
An ear with large cob is not a
good keeper for the reason that the
cob contains such quantity of sap
that the ear is liable to retain damp
ness, especially if the season proves
q warm and damp one. For this
reason many farmers contend that
the red cob corn is more depended
upon than white cob corn, the red
cob a. a rule being smaller than the
white cob.
In selecting seed from yellow corn
the color may be changed from a
dark to light yellow by selecting a
light coIored corn or vice versa,
When It is desired to retain the
corn as you get it, the cas:om is to
select both colors. If the crop from
which you are choosing tends toe
much to chat or bran, give prefer
snce to the more flinty ears and you
can soon remedy this difficulty.
After having sun dried their seed
corn the farmers of some sections
store it in lofts of smoke houses il
order that it may become permeated
with the odor of meat undergoing
smoking there and thus gaiu protec-
ton when in the ground against the
depredations Of field mice, worme
etc. The argument in favor of this
practice is that the corn is thorough
" saturated with creosote, which is
offensive to many pests.
The grain should remain in the
loft until spring, when it is carefully
shelIed by hand, aod every ear ex
amined to make sure that it is sound
and perfect. All small grains near
the point of the cob should De dis
carded and only the perfect ones
saved for planting.
