Eleven firms, WHICH operate
jointly under what are known
as the Bessemer steel patents,
are engaged in the production
ofsteel rails in the United States.
Not only are their peculiar proc
esses iof Manufacture protected
BY the monopoly conferred on
them by the patent office, but
the tariff further favors them by
alduty of, $29S per ton upon steel
rails imported from abroad. This
is in. effect a bounty upon their
industry. 1t is just as truly a
gratuity as il. S28, were paid to
-hese men blythe government as
d gift upon every Ton of rails
that they produce !Of course
this comes out of the great body
of the people-farmers and 9TH
ers who pay for transportation,
the cost of which'is increased by
whatever augments the expenses
of the railway equipment. 1t is
reported that the different Bes-
semer works throughout the
country are crowded with or
ders and have more work on
hand than they can possibly do.
These highly favored individuals
are about to enjoy a boom of the
most magnificent proportions,
and to which the political booins
are nothing. In comparison, the

ly important question connected
With the matter is how to rid
an apartment Of this poisonous
carbonic gas, which is known
TO seek the floor by its greater
weight. Much is'said and writ

pure air into rooms, but little

When people sat by, open
fires tlkle WAS not SO much need
Of considering this point; but
now that the fireplace as a rule
has been stopped up, and ven
tilation by that outlet forbidden,
it becomes Of the highest i'm
por5ancc to know how to provide
at least an equally effectual sub
stitute, which as yet has never
been done. Where shall The
outlet be? At The top of room,
certainly; but more especially,
and in all casesswithout fail, at
the bottom Of the room also,
The carbonic acid gas, as before
stated, sinks TO the floor Of a
room that is occupied; therefore,
an outlet should be provided. on
a level with the floor. One wri-
ter, who evidently understands
what he is talking about, says
it would still be better to make
an outlet through the floor into
a receptacle that shall guide this
corrupted air to a heated ffue,
where the ascending warm all
shall lift it and convey it away.
Useful in>respeet' to ventila-
ton as open fires are, they still
are not necessary TO provide
good ventilation, since the heat
and smoke from either stove OF
furnace will warm, an adjoining
fiue sufficiently TO create an up
ward current Of air powerful G.
nough to carry off the poisonous
gas, and in this way, while pure
air is all the time flowing into the
room, the corrupted air is being
drawn off. This being once
fairly compreheniled, 1t is easy
to see that we all have a remedy
at hand for our bad ventilation

Salt for Wheat.
Farmers Revi .w.l

In the Review of July 5, we
made a brief extract from the
Drainage Journal, upon this sub
iect. In the August number of
that paper we find the subject
again taken up. The wheat on
Mr.. McMurry's farm has been
threshed, and the result of the
experiment is known. We quote
again:
Mr.. McMurry bought his salt
at a cost eff so cents per sack of
$50 lbs. each, which was sown as
follows: Upon one portion of
the field $50 pounds per acre,
another 500 pounds per acre,
and another 1000 pounds, and
the remaining portion of the field
no salt. At the time we saw the
field the wheat treated with salt
was sufficiently ripe to cut. The
remainder of the field indicated
at least five or six days more be-
fore cutting. Eight days did
intervene before it was cnt., The
entire field of 80 acres was good,
but the portion treated to salt
gave an increased yield ofprob-
ably one-siXth. We say prob
ably for the reason that, in
running the wheat through the
thresher, there is but little chance
to get definite results. The ber-
~ of the sailed wheat being the
largest, so much so as to be Sc
lected readily from that not sal
ted. We have sample of each
in our office and have had it eX-
aminca by several parties, and
they never fail to select as the
best and largest the sailed wheat,
Notwithstanding the berry of the
unsalted is very full and round.
Each parcel of wheat has been
weighed, indicating weight of
50 pounds per bushel of salted
and ansalted.
One important point indicated
In this experiment is the earlier
ripening of the wheat. Five or
Fix days very Frequently insures
the crop; early maturity protects
against rust. Another point
gained is the increased yield:
-Four bushels increased product
per acre in a field Of 80 acres
gives 120 bushels, which at so
cents, the price at which the
wheat was sold from the thresh-
er, gives sos, a very snug sum.
And still another sum is the in
creased size os the berry, COM
mauaing usually the better price.
mother feet that is important
IN this experiment, and which
needs to be kept in mind, is the
effect Of the salt on young clover.
R!r. BfcMurry sowed the field to
clover about the same time that
the salt was sown. On the por-
tion treated to $50 pounds of
sat per acre the clover stands
well. On the portion treated to
$50 pounds the clover stand is
Tot good, and on the part treated
1000 pounds there is no clover
90 line. The set Of clover On
the portion of the field not sown
with salt, or sown with $50
pounds per acre is very good.
Itfolbws that salt IN too great
a quantity is injurious to clover.
Since cutting the field ofwheat
Mr.. McMlrry has sown plaster
upon a portion of the field to
test the effect upon the clover;
though ten days only have G.
lapsed since the plaster was sown
he says the effect is apparent,
