ASPARAGUS BED.

ASfAHAGUS BED.
In the Northern and Northwestern
states where the winter season extends
over four and five months, asparagus
beds do the best started in the spring
rather than in the fall of the year. 1t is
now time to be getting things in readi-
ness if it is desired to start bed this
spring. The kind of soil in which aspar-
gus thrives the best is rich sandy loan,
into which liberal quantity of well-rot-
ted manure has been worked, eighteen
inches or two feet deep. In the Prairie
Farmer of Jan. 10th, last, we published
an essay on asparagus culture by DR..
Schroeder, OF this state, in which he
gave the most approved method of cult
walton. Those who have that number of
the paper viii find Dr. S. s article useful
IN the cultivation of this excellent vege-
table. 1t is in place, however, to say
here, that the most expeditions way to
get crop of asparagus is to set out two
year old plants. A difference of opinion
exists among cultivators in regard to the
distance apart that should govern in set
ting out the plants. If it is designed to
put out large crop, the rows should be
about three feet wide and the plants two
feet apart in the row, to admit of cultiva-
ton with a horse hoe and cultivator. In
the garden the plants may be set foot
apart IN the row, the latter three feet
apart if it is desired to cultivate with a
horse; but if the hoe and fork only are
to be used, one foot apart each way will
answer. In garden culture some grow
ers lay out beds five feet wide. making
three rows foot apart, outside rows one
foot from the edges of the bed, and set
ting the plants ten or twelve inches
apart, three or four inches below the sur
face of the ground. In some cases gar
deners set the plants six inches below the
surface.
Where the soil is stiff clay, and none
more suitable is available, it is advisable
to incorporate sand literally with it to
loosen and make it friable. Under
draining such ground will also be of
much advantage.

The Mark Lane Express of last week
says that there has been a marked de-
cline for foreign wheat on account of the
speculative combination in America
Red winter has in two weeks declined
from 57s to 54s per quarter; but the de-
cline has stimulated the demand and mil
lers have bought freely. The official
estimate of the stock is 278,OOO quarters
as against 100000 at the same time last
year. Mixed American ex-ship maize is
now 26s. Six weeks of seasonable wealth
er have improved the aspects of the
country, but the supplies of English
wheat are small both in London and in
the provinces. There was "a decline of

SCRATCHES C., Columbus, Wis,
Query is good for scratches on
horses heels2
Reply:-Mix together equal parts of
pyoligneous acid. hnseed oil, and spirit
of turpentine. Wipe the heels clean and
apply suficiency morning and evening.
The heels of horses should never be left
dirty after having been worked in the
muddy soil.
THE depth to pillow depends upon cir
cumstances and conditions, different soils
and requirements. Nearly all the root
crops require deep blowing and deep till
age. In old ground which has become
infertile by constant cropping. deep
blowing is beneficial in bringing to the
surface the fresher and richer subsoil
On sod ground shallow blowing is bes.
for crops whose roots do not penetrate
far into the soil, as in the case of corn,
etc. Generally, however, deep cultiva-
ton is best, as the soil is thus less SUBJ
ject to extremes Of wet or dry weather.

RAISING wATEEMELONS,

In the Prairie Farmer of April 3rd, a
subscriber asked for some ones expert
ence in raising watermelons. First pillow
the ground deep, pulverize it we'll, and
mark off the rows eight or ten feet each
way. Put a shovel full of well rotted
manure in each hill. Keep the soil well
cultivated until the vines begin to run,
then throw the vines over and pillow them
both ways turning the vines back to their
proper place again. After that cut out
all the weed or grass that may come up,
and you will raise plenty of fine melons.

A PROPHETIC SIGN.

Although Paul, whose writings the
Methodists cherish, commanded women
to keep silence" and ask their hus-
bands FOR any desired information, yet
the General Conference Of the NJ. E.
Church, now in session at Cincinnati,
voted to request Miss Frances Willard
70 address them on the temperance
question. The enlightened clergymen
nave slighted Paurs words-in fact,
completely 'gone back" on them-and
yet the Methodist Church is not ruined.
10 those who have aud are maintaining
a struggle to put women on an equality
with men everywhere, this 'condescen-
sion' on the part Of the Conference,
composed of representative ministers Of
the greatest Of Protestant churches, is
gratifying. There was some opposition,
not particularly TO Miss Willard, but to
extending an invitation to any one to
address the Conference; but the major
ity, fully cognlzant of the eloquenee
and ability Of the lady, and appreciatlng
her great efforts in behalf Of temperance,
was decidedly in favor Of hearing her,
and she was invited. When she re-
ceived the invitation, she exhibited her
good sense by declining, showing the
few who feared that woman's silence
was forever past that she cared not TO
discuss the question before men who
ought to be as fully couversaut with the
evils Of intemperance as she. Her work
is not with those who are out of danger,
but among the classes who overlook the
evils of liquor using. She is particu-
larly interested in arousing the women
OF the country to action on the question;
for ninety-hundredths Of them already
favor the suppression Of the whisky
traffic. Miss Willard doubtless secured
the good will OF those who opposed ex-
tending an invitation to her, aud lost no
friends She proved that desire to
"break silence" is not the motive that
impels her to the course she has taken,
but wish to assist in the elevation Of
humanity. The Conference has made a
concession that is a source Of much sat
isfaction to the workers for equal rights,
aud the great Methodist Episcopal
Church will be the gamer. This sign
OF the times is prophetic, and in a score
of years women will be on equal footing
with men in the work Of spreading
Christianity.

In the address to the women Of the

of the National Woman Suffrage Asso-
citation makes a point against the Re-

to champion freedom Of the ballot and

ness this: "Great stress is laid by the

fol power of the South in Congress be
cause every colored man is counted to
swell the representation, and yet the
eolored vote is trampled out and ig-
nored.' What is a vote but an authori-

while she is ihu4 busy with her hands,
her mind is not idle, as the following

As new life is awakened in the erewhIIe dead

But after while the unchauging and yet ever

POLICY VS.. RIGHT.

" What If the foot, ordained the dust 10 tread
or hand, 10 toll, asPired to be the head ."
BY every revealed law of Holy W rit,
by every instinct, by established order,
woman's inferiority is proven beyond a
doubt. Then why the useless badinage
of words about quality? The repeated
attempts at self-government Of such
class only blunt the instruments en-
ployed and prove the impregnability Of
ourlong- established aud much-cherished
institutions.
When Woman Suffrage becomes a
question of policy, we'll consider it; as
a right, never! For instance, il may be
we'll to give the ballot to women, If
their votes are needed to Offset the
power OF the Chinese. In San Jose
there has been quite revival Of the
womanish nonsense. Where will it
end? Cannot some one quiet this con-
stauily-reourring cIsmor? MEMO.
