The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1881-02-10

The beekeepers of California are
advocating the cultivation of the
basswoods or linden trees for the
purpose of increasing the sources
from which the honey-bee may OBJ
tain first-rste honey. The farmers
of the eastern states consider the
honey gathered from the flowers of
of the Eastwood equal to that obtain
cd from white clover and many of
our apiarists have planted these trees
literally about their places on this
account, and in a few instances acres
of Eastwood trees have been set out
simply for bee pasture. If the eli
mate of California Is adapted to the
basswoods, the planting of these trees
would assist greatly in increasing the
number of excellant honey-producing
plants.-lMinneapolis Tribune.
In the Minnesota bottoms, near
this place, the Eastwood is found in
great abundance, and at least one
apiarist-Mr. o. A. Mason-has been
very successful with his bees, of
which he has about seventy five
stands. The product of his bees the
past season was nearly 1000 lbs. of
honey, and we think it far superior
to that gathered from white clover.

Egyptian Obelisks.

There are thirty of them at the
present time scattered over Europe.
Rome has eleven four of which are
higher than our New York obelisk.
The highest Of the Roman obelisks,
which is also the highest in Europe,
stands before the Church of st. John
Lateran. The obelisk in the piazza
of st. Peters is 81 feet 8 inches high.
Both of these were mounted on high
pedestals. The pedestal of the St.
John Lateran obelisk is A. feet high,
making the entire height of obelisk
and pedestal $50 feet. The pedestal
of the st. Peters obelisk is a trifle
less than so feet high, making the

Sow Mere Oats.


Minneapolis Tribune.
Large quantities of oats are being
imported into the State. There is no
good reason why Minnesota should
not produce her own oat crop. The
money paid out for this purpose
should be retained in the State, in
stead of being sent abroad to enrich
the pockets Of farmers living outside
of our boundaries. Oats are pro-
fitable crop, and it seems little
strange that they cannot be produced
in sufficient quantities to supply the
demand. The true principle is to
produce every possible article neces-
eary for our own consumption, espe.
cially if the product is a profitable
one. Train after train of cars loaded
with oats frequently arrive-the pro
duct of sensible farmers residing
over the borders-to supply Minneso
ia horses with food. Evidently these
farmers believe in the good and
wholesome doctrine of diversity Of
crops.

like our way of filing rooms with

A bill has been introduced In the
Minnesota Legislature to reduce the
rate of interest to eight per cent.
When we consider the cheapness Of
money in the oldcr-settled parts Of
the country, eight per cent. seems a
high enough rate, as it undoubtedly
is; and yet we believe the passage Of
such law will not particularly ben
eft the people of the newly-settled
sections of the State, where it is gen
orally no easy matter to borrow mon
ey at the present rate. The price
of money depends largely on the
character of the security offered, and
the assurance the lender may have
that the loan will be paid promptly
at maturity. While State legisla-
lures have the power to Ok the rate
Of interest by statutory enactment,
they cannot compel capitalists to
loan their money at the rates pre-
scribed and be subject to the present
vexatious delays in collecting the
same when their loans become due.
Instead, they will continue to invest
their money in Government bonds
and other securities at much lower
rates of interest. Money eau now be
had on good farm mortgages at
eight per cent, but where the secu-
rity is not of the most satisfactory
character very few capitalists care to
make loans at the present rate of ten
per cent. When our laws are such
as to ensure the lender the punctual
payment of his money when due we
may expect much lower rates of in
terest.

INsANITY.--The trial of Guiteau while
it disgusts the people with the badness
of the plea may nevertheless prove of
great public service. The plea of insanity
has been found so safe a resort for crimi-
mails that it is time for enlightenment and
may lead TO general revision of the laws
bearing on insanity as defence in crimi-
nal cases. The New York Tribune on
this subject says:
"Daily habits make people very loose
in their notions about mental disorder.
rhe abounding charity which thinketh no
evil prompts men often to infer that a
person who has done any particularly out
rageOus or absurd thing must be crazy
1t is not iiattering to human self-esteem
10 believe that the basest deeds are often
done by men possessed of ordinary human
reason. Sudden mental alteration is
commonly given by friends as an excuse,
when u man commits suicide, or kills q
wife, or child, or friends. Insanity caus-
| ed by drink is another delicate peri
! phrasis by which social custom blinds the
mind to the guilt of those who get drunk
and break the laws. If man CANDLES or
! speculates until he has robbed society, and
then rusheS to death to escape Justice,
society tearfully explains that business
misfOrtunes must have upset his reason.
| Thus it comes TO pass that. in loose popu-
lar speech, there are recognized a great
many kinds and grades of mental weak
ness and disorder, which are loosely or
charitably accepted as affecting personal
responsibility for acts committed, and few
persons stop to draw the distinction be.
tween any of these and the insanity which
the law cOntemplates. The law itself, too
is greatly at fault. The precise kind ol
grade of insanity which shall relieve g
man from legal responsibility for his act.
is not defined in statutes with sufficient
precision. Bearing in mind the extra
ordinary and growing lOOseness of popular
impressions regarding insanity, we canno
wonder that the administration of crimi
nal law has become a disgrace to tn,
country. The Guiteau trial will in an
case do much to educate popular opinion
