we're employed at different times,to whom
Mr. Beach paid hundreds OF dollars for
medical treatment. with only temporary
relief from his agony.
By the urgent solicitations of his friends
he was induced to try DR.. David Kennedy
.'Favorite Remedy" experienced a marked
improvement from the first day he began
to use the medicine: on the 18th OF Sept
he voided stone as large ms could be
pissed through the natural channel.
Mr.. Beach concludes long letter to Dr.
Kennedy by saying 1T will always afford
ne pleasure to recommend the FavoIite

THURSDAY AFTERNOON.

The session was opened with paper by
Prof. +. e. Englehardt on Commercial
Fertilizers, giving list of them and their
action, and was followed by j. w. San
born, Esq, superintendent OF the college
farm at Hanover. He believed in broad
and intensive farming, the cultivation of
broad areas in Il thorough manner, and
was mainly what he gave at some of the
superintendent's meetings last winter, and
was reported by US at that time. Thorough
fertilizng, chemical fertilizers, cultivation
by machinery and economical feeding
were the strong points.
Prof A. H. Sabin of the Vermont agri-
cultural college followed with PAPER
" How to keep our farms in good condi-
ton" Plants get a large part of their
sustenance from the air, and it we sold
from our farms only such elements as
came from the air we should not take
from its fertility. We might change the
position, but it would all be on the farm
Maple sugar and butter were such prod
ucls Fat is not a fertilizer. Cheese and
meat and bone come largely from the soil
The average stable manure is worth from
81. 80 to ~. % per ton, and is about hall
nitrogen.
Bones are valuable fertilizers and should
be saved, They can be made available
by the farmers by pounding them to
small pieces, putting them in a oask and
mixing them thoroughly-one hundred
POUNDS of bone, same of good hard wood
ashes, fifty pounds Of lime, twelve pounds
of sal soda and pour on twenty gallons Of
water After standing few weeks can
all be made available for plant food.

| have tried to- give the more important
1ayvs rs they stand upon the statute books. They
mark an enormous increase of personal power in
the married woman's-cendition during the last
thirty years. But probably her actual legal po-
sition is more restricted stu than these statutes
would indicate. The average man wishes to do
Justice as fast as he can see it the legislator
responds to petitions to change laws deemed Of
fensive But the lawyer, accustomed to be guided
by precedent, and fearful that decisions un-
der the law of his State may be ovcrTuled
BY an appeal to higher court, is shy of TAX
ing full advantage of new statute. Thus
Il comes about that a woman must not place
full reliance upon the "acts and resolves of
The General Assembly Of her State. She must find
but what is the actual practice among lawyers and
Judges. For instance, in Massachusetts, the law
declares that woman owns her own property, and
may manage it free from all interference; yet so
many troublesome conditions are to be complied
with, and in important cases there are so many
possible risks from technical barriers, that many
women still find it to their advantage to empower
come man friend with a trustees external rights,
that she may really control her own through him
In his capacity of agent. For instance, again, in
California, where the common property" of hus-
band and wife is wholly under his control, and al
though her estate is called separate, and she is
declared to be legally protected in its control, the
profits of both her and his separate estate are called
common property" and he has fall disposal of
them, unless by special arrangement otherwise
These and many other instances prove that the
legal powers conferred on married women are
often so executed and interpreted as to fall far
short of their apparent scope. The first thing,
therefore for every married woman to do is find
out the statutes of her own State respecting her
position and then learn the actual practical bear
ing of the laws in any point that touches her. 1t
may be that some movement for national 1egisla-
ton on thelegaI position Unmarried women will be
found necessary. Certainly il ought not to be pos
sible for men and women TO assume the solemn
obligation of marriage in one State, under
one set of legal conditions, and one or
the other party 10 the contract throw of those OBJ
legations in another State under another set of
legal conditions. There should be some uniform
fly of law as 10 marriage contract and its disso
luton by divorce in the different States. Another
practical consideration is this: Women must be
prepared to assume personal responsibilities as
they attain personal rights No State Legislature
has said q Go to let US make the married woman
Che legal equal of her husband = but legislation
has pointed in that direction more and more dur
ing these last years pregnant of changes in her
position.-Nrs AHRG G. Spence, IN Popular Science
