CHICAGO, req. ZS.-Juu9C Moran
in the circuit court this morning de-
MED tie application Of AIoy Sam, Il
ChinamaE, for naturalization. The
Judge said, necessary proof of good
moral character and residence in the
State and United States, etc was
sufficient. The sole question was
whether native of China OF Il mon
golian, might he naturalized under
the laws of the United States. The
law originally stood that any alien,
being free white person, might be-
come a citizen and this was subsc-
quently made applicable to African
nativity and persons OF African de-
scent. He cited the language of
Sawyer, i'll n similar application to
the I. 5. circuit court i'll California,
who denied similar application,
saying: &" / am therefore of opinion,
that Il native of China or mongoii-
an, is not Il white person within tho
meaning of tho act of Congress.
Judge Choatc of New York was cited
as reaching the same opinion, as
there was period whenChinesc might
have been lawfully naturaized, be-

AMERICAN APPI Es IN GERMANY An
American consul in Germany writes as
follows of the experimental shipment of
American apples to that country: This
shipment of apples was Just three weeks
on the way from New York. by way of
Bremen, to the centre of Germany. OF
the three varieties forwarded, the Bald
wins arrived in almost perfect condition,
the greetings also turned out satisfactory;
but on an average, so far as heard from,
one-third of each barrel of Spitzenbergs
was spoiled. The novelty of this impor-
tation of American apples has caused the
people to open their eyes in mild amaze
ment. Since it became known thft the
shipment was on the way the croakers
have been quite active in disparaging the
enterprise. | have heard frequent re-
marks about the widness of the idea. 1t
was asserted in the first place that apples
could not be transported so far in good
order, and, even if this difficulty perchance
should be surmounted, it has been 'botan-
ically demonstrated" that all American
fruits, apples included, had neither the
taste nor aroma which characterizes
European fruits But | venture to say
that the good people of southern Germany
have never tasted better apples than those
OF the shipment in question, which is not
pretended to have consisted of anything
but ordinary good varieties, and which
was really benefaction, in view of the
fact that the markets this season are
destitute of everything like fruit which is
not sour and shriveled.-Boston Herald.

MILK FOR FATTENING FOR Fowls
What different taste fine, nicely and
quickly fatted fowl has, when served on
the table, compared with one which has
been forced to scratch for all its living,and
then be consigned to the spit in anything
but fit condition for food. Farmers
realize the importance of fattening quick.
ly, when feeding beeves for the butcher,
yet many do not seem to realize the fact
that what holds with that kind of meat IS
equally true when applied to fowls.
Tenderness and iuiciness are results of
fatening quickly, while mere ordinary
flavor and want of tenderness result from
letting fowls run until wanted for use Oh
the table.
To enable one to fatten fowls or chicks
quickly, it is absolutely necessary to give
such food as will accomplish the purpose
best, and to this end, we unhesitatingly
recommend plenty of milk. in any state,
from fresh to thick. This should be fed in
connection with grain diet, for one
counteracts any possible deleterious infu-
ence of the other. If kept in darkened
place and fed unsparingly on milk with
grain food in the proper proportions. you
will soon have something very choice to
set upon your tables for your friends, as
we'll as for your family. When milk is
fed no water is required for fattening
foVls.-Poultry Yard.

Sugar from Amber Cane.

| Concerning the manufacture of sugar
| from the amber cane, DR.. Wilhelm. tho
owner OF the successful Faribault refinery
in Minnesota, in response to the request of
Governor Pillsbury, has written letter
embOdying the result of his valuable ex-
perlence and observations on this subject
He is convinced of the high merits of this
variety of sorghum, and of the possibility
OF complete success in the manufacture of
sugar from it, if the right method of pro-
cednre is adopted; bnt this method ex-
cludes the use of small crushing mills and
open fire evaporators; with such appli-
ances crude molasses for home use can he
made and of All inferior quality at best,
but profitable yield of marketable SUGAR
cannot be depended upon: hence there
has been good deal of disappointment on
the part of most of those who have en-
gagged in this new business of making
sugar in such comparatively rude man
ner. He affrms that the system of manu-
facture must comprise central refinery
to which syrup shall be sent which has
been properly prepared bv trained opera
tors with large crushing mills, steam evan.
orators and CHARTERS and suitable defeca-
tion From this crude product sugar and
svrups are made ut the refinery, the former.
of course, like any other cane sugar, the
latter fully equal, it is claimed. to the fine
sugar house syrups of former times; these
syrups have now. owing to the improved
processes for extracting the pure sugar
from the raw sugar. almost entirely disap-
peared from our tables.
For the cultivation of the cane DR.. Will
helm recommends sandy, well drained
loan: the seed should be carefully select
ed, for good seed alone may make differ
ence of a hundred per cent in the crop:
the drill should be set so as to plant a seed
every ten or twelve inches; the crop
should receive liberal culture in its early
stages, in order to hasten it forward and
get it sufficiently matured before there is
any danger of frost; the careful removal
of suckers he regards as very important
and well worth all the labor that it will
cost.
The expense of raising an acre of cane
is given in one instance of forty acres at
eleven dollars per acre; aud the cost of
extracting the juice and preparing the
syrup by fire evaporation, twenty-seven
dollars and fifty cents; by steam evapora.
ton it would he cheaper, and the Weld of
syrup would be larger; one hundred and
fifty gallons of syrup per acre were obtain
ed while one hundred and eighty gallons
# much better quality would havetbeen
yielded by steam evaporators arranged as
usual in trains.-NeV York Tribune

Win you set on foot an inquiry as to the
health, at this particular season, of farmers
families who have a large quantity of fruit
in their cellars? We have been having
what we supposed to be the usual "epi-
dcmc cold" of the season, the symptoms
of which were so peculiar that even
sent for some quinine pills--sore throat,
lame back, soreness about the nose and
face, etc, | observed yesterday that while
out ut work | was nearly relieved, but on
coming in and sitting down by the fire in
the evening my throat began to be sore
again. This set me to thinking, and, as |
have, like many farmers, an unusual
quantity of fruit in my cellar waiting to
be sorted for market, it occurred to me
that this might be the cause. l shall re-
move the decaying apples and ventilate
the cellar promptly, and note the result.
My nearest neighbor is affected very much
the same way. 1t may be = matter of
great importance to have the subject
brought to peoples attention, as much ILL
