Proving in the Spring.

"Do we pillow too mIlch?" was the ques-
ton put by one of our readers a few
weeks ago, who then proceeded to give his
experience in the preparation of land for
corn without blowing, on which corn had
been grown the year before. Another i'm
plement VS. used, and the results, as
stated by our correspondent, proves very
satisfactory in saving time and labor, and
also in the outcome of the crop. This eX~
pertinent is suggestive, and no doubt ar.
rested the attention OF numerous readers,
and it. is not improbable that some of
them may adopt the new departure " in
the preparation of their land for the
spring crops.
The preparation Of the soil for the re-
ception ofseed is the most import mt of
all mechanical opera ions on the farm,
but the time the desired depth and the
manner of doing the work depends upon
various circumstances, rs the kind Of crop
to which it is intended to devote the land,
the character of the soil, etc. There is
no question but that the time and labor of
| blowing some fields for a sp ing crop are
unnecessary, or, in other words, tia fields
which have been we'll filled during the
preceding season may be put into good
condition for the reception Of seed by the
use of i'm lements which greatly econo
mize time and toll. But of course this
method cannot be followed at random.
Eyery farmer knows that a great deal
depends upon the season as well as the
char cter of the soil, 1t sometimes hap
pens that light or naturally friable sol
has become packed and hard by beating
storms, and that blowing it is indispensa-

The President and the Farmers =.

Farmers, irrespective of political bias,
have good reason, we trust, to congratu-
ulate themselves on Mr.. Garfeld's access
ion to the Presidential chair. He has the
e1utaton of being thorough and prac.
tiCsble farmer, which his we'll cultivated
acres in Ohio would seem to justify.
Believing him to be in sympathy with
agriculturists everywhere. we shall nope
for his hearty cooperation in whatever
may advance the great agricultural ms
terests of the country, and the position
WELD great and lasting influence in pro,
noting these interests: In his inaugural
address he says: The interests OF agri>
culture should have more attention from
the government than they have yet re-
ceived. AS the government lights our
coasts from protection of mariners and the
benefit of commerce, so it should give to
the tillers of the soil the best lights of
practical science and experience"
From tIese words we may infer that ne is
contemplating some practical solution OF
the problem concerning Cabinet position
for the commissioner of agriculture.
The department of agricUlt ure, though
stnted in its appropriations, has been,
under Gen. LIE Due, of great value to the
material development of the country, and
when elevated to equal rank and privilege
| with the other departments, Its value may
| be increased many-fold.
We believe that President Garfield
realizes the fact that this great branch o
our productive forces has been ignored, o.
treated in grudging, half-hearted sort o
way, as if it were d disgrace rather than al
honor to place the agricultural depart
ment on the equal footing with the othe
departments. The Government seems t.
be ashamed TO recognize agriculture as {
great foundation of wealth and power
although it cannot get rid ofthe fac! that
as one has said, tho nation dwells largel,
in the cottages and farm houses of th
country" 1.-THE President wishes to vii
the grateful recognition of the great com
munity OF farmers, he will take the presen
opportunity to use his power to increas
the capacity and usefulness of the de
partment of agriculture.-[R Rural Me-

KimbaI,'s CsDers.

Frank Kimball (colored) stood be-
fore the rail at the police court again
this morning. His prosecutors we're
Mr.. and Mrs. j. B. Parodi, who accuse
Frank Of threatening their lives. Some
time since he called for and procured
drinks at Parodi's bar, and when he
refused to pay for them he was put
out. He swore dire vengeance against
the entire Parodi family, and was
arrested aud sent to Jail for failure to
give a peace bond. After a few days
he was released, upon giving bond, and
going straight to Parodi's, planted
himself on the sidewalk and called
loudly for Parodi gore. Again Frank
was arrested and sent to the island for
a hundred days from the police court.
lie bided his time and, unawed by his
actual experience upon that wave
bound gaol, put on his war paint as
soon as he was released, polished up a
case,knife on his number fourteen
shoe, and sauntering down to Parodi's,
passed backward and forward in front
Of the gentleman's place of business.
He magnanimously allowed the family
three minutes to say their prayers
before he proceeded to carry his threat
into execution. The police made an
opportune appearance and Kimball
was again locked up. This time he
was released on promise to leave the
city for six months. Two months Of
the time passed and the burden Of his
undischarged threat bore SO heavily
upon Kimballs conscience that he
could bear it no longer, and again
made his appearance at ParOdi's yes
tcrday in the. usual attitude. As
stated, he was arrested and locked up.
At trial, this forenoon, Mrs. Parodi
expressed a deadly fear Of the man,
and it was plain from what she said
/ that all that was necessary to quiet a
Juvenile Parodi was to whisper Kim
balls name in its ear. A peace bond
was again made out, large enough to
keep Kimball in Jail for some time tc
come.
