TEXAS is aroused and has declared war
on desperadoes and thieves. When
Texas finds 1t advisable to adopt lynch
law, we may be sure it is needed. The
citizens of Orange county have risen en-
masse to crush the bands Of murderers
and robbers which have so long infested
it. Eight men have been shot or hanged.
One of the culprits confessed the exist
ence of band of desperadoes who at one
time had arranged to burn the town of
Orange 1t would be far better to punish
according to law; but if the law IS pow
erless, then lynching is tar preferable to
murder, arson and daylight robbery.

Is Lapham stalwart? This is the ques-
ton that is sgitating the New York poll
ticlans, especially the other wing of the
party. To speak Of two wings to the Re-
publican party IN the Empire State is
bad, indeed; but not so bad as to believe
that Lapham, who was elected by the
anti-Conkling party, is now in full train
i6g with those who sought his defeat. 1t
is confidently asserted that Conkling de-
ponds upon his influence in his part OF
the state for victory this fall.

THE Winona and st. Peter railroad compa =
ny have commenced suit against D. c. Thomas,
for the entire value Of the railroad bridge out
near WATERFOWL which was cut down last win
ter and used for fuel. They claim several
thousand dollars damage. It seems that
Thomas claimed that the bridge had been
abandoned by the railroad company, and that
it was his, and when settlers came to get it
for wood during the blockade, Thomas refus-
ed to let them haveit unless they divided with
him, giving him one-half of all they cut down,
and now the company propose to hold him for
the whole bridge. The case is likely to prove
an interesting One-EE.

SoRGHUM SUGAR

OF late years the production OF
sorghum sugar in the northern Sec
tions of the country has increased
wonderfully. On this subject the
New Orleans Times sage:
The cultivation Of sorghum cane
is attracting a great deal OF attention
in the northwest The experiments
with this cane during the last year
have been very satisfactory. A few
days ago the agricultural bill came
up in the lower house ct Coz sress
for consideration Ii provides for
an appropriation of $25, 600 for the
purchase of improved machinery
With which to continue the expert
ments OF manufacturing sugar from
sorghum. This is Sis, 900 more than
was appropriated to the same object
last year 10 connection with this
feature of the bill Mr. Gillette, who
appears to be familiar with the re-
suits obtained i'll the experiments
in sorghum cane cornsta'ks, made
some interesting statements lie
exhibited samples of sugar produced
fron sorghum cane and cornstalks,
and said that the "cost OF producing
pure, light sugar from sorghum is
only three cents per pound, while
the duty on the same qnaIity of su
gar, il imported, is 3 n cents per
pound in other words, the NORTH.
west can produce pure sugar for iesa
than the duties upoa it to day One
thirty >fourth part Of Iowa can pros
duce as much sugar per annum as
we now import; in other words
lO39.lS2 acres gu Of 30 226, 500
acres of aluvial lands in the State of
Iowa can produce an amount of 81
gar equal to the importation into this
country OF that article at cost less
than he duties now paid upon sugar.
The imports Of sugar, syrups, etc,
during the last fiscal year amounted
to l,l27,l2l,Sl6 pounds, and cost,
including duties, Sl3l 100000. The
experiments at the agricultural de-
partment show an average product
per acre in sorghum sugar of ,G62
pounds; besides syrup, 500 pounds"
With reference to cornstalks Mr..
Gillette said that the experiments
were not so satisfactory because
preparation was not made until too
late, but 900 pounds of sugar, or at
that rate per acre, have been obtain
ed from cornstalks after The corn
was gathered If the Iowa farmer
can produce as much sorghum sugar
to the acre as Mr.. Gillette seems
to think they can, or il they can get
an amount of sugar out of their corn
stalks after the corn is gathered that
is worth twice as much as tn ir corn
crop, they have bonanza in their
farms to which they had better turn
their attention at once We suspect,
however, that Mr. Gillette is too en-,
!husiastic to be entirely reliable, and
that the corns,alks "af,er The corn is
gathered cannot be so very much
more juicy than dry clover in hay
loft.

HOW TO PoRDUcE AWBER-
RIE5.

Nine out of ten persons who cult
vate strawberries allow the runners
to grow for the purpose OF getting
plants the following year. This Is
wrong. If plants are desired they
should be taken from pa'ch select
ed for 'hs, purpo g. II ia impossi-
bic to get tirs,-class fruit from wa
that have produced runoerf' a tbs
effort at iaubie pr auction (plan's
and berrics) weakens the vine and
prevents i; from producing good
fruit; To get nice large yell flavor
ed straw berries the gioes sho1ld be
kept free from runaera, oot even al
loving hem to get away ir' n me
parent At the start rbIe can oe
done by having a piece Of stovepIPe
fixed TO stick for handle, to use
for q cutter. Place the pipe over
the plant apd press npon 1t. Tins
cuts off the runners. When the run"
ners have all been cut follow with
hoe and clear them away. When
the plants blossom ali the blossoms
should be cut off except few OF the
forward ones on each plant. This
looks like destruction, but trial
will show that such treatment will
give larger berries, of better flavor
and easier to pick. The crop, though
lacking in numbers, will compensate
in bulk as well as realizing the high
est price ia market. Az coon AZ the
crop is removed weed the plants
again, and sprinkle around each ono,
under the leaves, some weil-r oted
manure, and in the fall let them be
mulcbed. On removing tho mulch
early in the spring, again give each
plant a sprinkle, but this time OF a
mixture Of equal parts Of superphos~
pbate, sulpbate of potash double
quantity of unleached hard wood
ashes may be substituted,) guano and
plaster. BY thus giving them good
care and cultivation they will pay
as we'll if not better than any OF the
small fruits, but if neglected they
occasion a loss.
