Reports - From Judiciary Committee, hy Mr..
Fteii. IN favor of House bill g authorizing State 5
Attorneys TO prosecute by information IN all cases
where grand juries may ind indictments and in
vcsing States Attorneys with all the duties now
peri r.n"': 10y slcl grand iurirs Mr.. Fifled said
he did NOT helieva ~ nt,il-ning The grand jury and
leaving every :h. the bands OF one man 10 pro-
secute. That was too much power 10 he lodged in
in any one individual. Tle best WAY was 10 allow
every prosecution 10 he founded upon information
and yet Ia leave IN The County Courts the power 10
call OUT the grand jury at any time when il may he
necessary. With this safeguard the benefits of
the bill were Obvious.
NJ u-nwn nf Grsai Isle nunn-.i tho i.iI Ths Grand
Jury TO his knowledge hal saved many innocent men
in his county from the disgrace of an Indictment II
the present bill become L law. the custom of ses-
sOns OF the grand Jury would soon fall ihto d;su'c
the judges would no, call II out except for murder
and the States Attorney would have the liberty
Of his fellow citizens under his control.
Mr.. Thompson of lrasburglI and Mr. Smith Of 81
Jnhnsbury favored the bill.
Mr.. Pallnei.of Waterbury was as reluctant as any
body TO interfere with a sy ,.cm.whrh was created
In the interest, Of liberty and should lie very ca
tiouI In disturbing II but this ball did not greatly
enlarge the present power Of States attorneys.
while II saved the expense OF long sessions Of grand
juries attended by n multitude Of witnesses.
MIR. F!ned agreed with the gentleman from
Grand Isle that the theoretical danger of the bill
was that II gave States attorney opportunity 10
abuse his position. But for several Years
tins power had existed 10 certain extent and had
never heeu abused. So practically his objection
fell 10 the ground
Mr.. fiield said that the saving in expense would
he about $4,000 II year. The grand jury was not
abolished by this bill; II would come together annu
ally as before.

Captain Mayne Reid, the well known
writer of books of adventure aud travel
has been for the past three years expert
menting with seed potatoes from Mexico,
the original habitat of the plant, with q
view to escaping the blight which has
been SO disastrous to the potato crop in
England and Ireland He writes to the
London Lire Stock journal from his
place in Herefordshire, briefly detailing
his experience, from which it appears
that Of eleven different varieties, planted
at the same time, in the same soil, and
with the same cultivation, the Mexican
alone showed not spot Of blight, all the
other kinds having been found to be dis
eased in a greater or less degree. In ad-
dition to the immunity from disease, he
finds also that while the best of his Eng
lish seed yielded crop of but five tons,
or considerably less than 200 bushels, to
the acre, the Mexican seed produced over
ten tons, without special care in cultiva-
ton, many single specimens weighing a
pound or even a pound and u half After
being stored through the winter in ordi-
nary field pits, they come out perfectly
sound, and appear to improve in quality
as the spring advances. As table pota-
to, or for feeding to stock, he thinks they
have no equal in England, and he pro
poses that the Government shall take in
hand the importation of seed from Mexi-
co or Peru as a preventive Of the
blight

We have two or three inquiries now
before us as to whether spring or fall is
the best time to set out trees. We can't
tell how often We have treated on this
subject, but it is natural that the ques-
ton should continue to be asked, as young
men grow up, marry, and either go to
farming or in other ways possess land,
and desire Information as to what fruit
trees to plant, and when to plant them.
In a very few words We would say that
there is not mach choice in the seasons.
If the soil is naturally moist, spring is
probably to be preferred for setting-out
if dry. fall. If the trees are large, early
fall should be chosen. and the leaves be-
gin to drop. In both cases, the trees
should be taken out of the ground care
fully, and with rs many of the small
roots as possible, and be planted as soon
after as possible, before the roots become
dry. To prevent their becoming SO, they
should he well covered, kept out of the
sun in transporting, and "heeled-in" or
buried, and literally wa.ered as soon as
they arrive. until ready for planting. The
planting cannot be done too carefully.
The hole should be large enough to re-
ceive all the roots carefully spread Out,
and the ground put about them shouldb be
fine and rich. If the roots are too big,
they should be somewhat pruned, and
the branches Of the tree also. Some
times the branches, where the roots are
few and have been injured III taking-up,
should be severely shortened to save the
life of the tree ee-Gcfmaatotca 7cie-

NOTES.

Farm tools Will rust out sooner than
they will wear out. Many farmers inlure
their farm implements more by exposure
to the weather than by Use on the farm.
An implement which with good care
would last twenty years, will, when ex-
posed to the weather, become useless i'll
five years or even less. A farm cart
which, with good usage, would last al
most lifetime, will last only II few years,
when exposed to the weather. The ex-
planation Of the reason why farming does
not pay with money is found i'll this ne
glect to take care OF the farm tools. All
farm implements are costly, and the far
mcr who has 10 buy three or four times as
many AS hi, neighbor because he does
not take care of them, Of course Will not
find much profit III farming. The same
carelessness in any other kind of bust
ness, would ensure equally as disastrous
results.
A good mode for killing poultry, rs it
causes instant death without pain or dis
iigurcmcnt, is to suspend the birds by
tying their legs firmly to a pole or heavy
wire across the killing room, Il convenient
distance from tho floor, and opening the
fowls beak, and with sharp pointed and
narrow-bladed knife, make an incision at
the back Of the roof, which will divide
the yertebr;c and cause immediate death.
The best food for fattcning fowls, old
or young, is barley meal, cooked, and fed
warm Ia small quantity of brick dust III
their water ls recOmmcndedD, which wil
make flesh faster and more solid, giving il
n fine golden color when dressed. Good
food is positive economy.

There is an inclination to forget to pro

day now the weather SO fine, wooing
every one out of doors; but this is the
very time to undertake autumn house
cleaning, for after the days grow short,
and cold weather sets in, it is an unwise
experiment to dampcn floors and walls
with soap suds.
In the first place look to the furnace, and
have it thoroughly cleaned and put in
order. 1t does not pay to defer this until
you wish to kindlc fire, and the house
hold must be uncomfortable, all hands
catching cold, to await the coming Of the
furnace repairer This should be started
sufficiently early i'll the season, with Just
enough heat to keep off chilliness and
dampness, 30 that the entire atmosphere
of the house may be such as to conteraci
the rapid change from mild days to cold,
clustering stormy ones. The morning
air once softened, if the house grows too
hot open the window n short distance
from the top, but never from the bottom,
to chill the feet These are the very days
