What Iowa Girls Are Taught.

At the Iowa agricultural college
every girl in the junior-class has learn
ed to make good bread, weighing and
measuring their ingredients, mixing,
kneading and baking and regulating
her fire. Each has also been taught to
make yeast and to bake biscuits, pud-
dings, pies and cakes of various kinds;
how to cook and roast, broil steak and
make a cup of coffee, how to stuff and
roast turkey, make oyster soup, pre-
pare materials for other soups, steam
and mash potatoes so that they will
melt in the mouth; and, in short, to
prepare a frst-class meal, combining
both substantial and fancy dishes, in
good style. Theory and manual skill
have gone hand in hand. Vast stores
of learning have been accumulated ii
the arts of canning, preserving and
pickling fruits, and they have taken
practical lessons in the details OF house
hold management, such as house-tur-
nishing, care of beds and bedding,
washing and ironing, care of the SICK,
etc. The girls. we are informed, are
also thoroughly grounded in science,
mathematics and English literature. III
there is anything that challenges the
unlimited respect and devotion OF tne
masculine mind it is the ability IN Eo-
man to manage well her own house
hold.

The Gulf Stream and Europe.

There was time within the human
epoch, says James Giekie, in an article
on "The Gulf Stream and the Panama
Canal" when the European climate
was so genial that many delicate south
ern species of plants fourished luxuri-
antly in regions where they cannot now
exist. Thus in the neighborhood of
Paris, the fig tree, laurel of the Canary
Islands, and other Southern species,
found congenial habitant. The Ca
nary Island laurel does not grow fur
Their north now than near Toulon, on
the borders of the Mediterranean. 1t
flowers in winter, and repeated frosts
would therefore prevent its repro
ducing its kind. That this plant for
merly hourished near Paris is thus a
striking proof of changed climatic con-
ditions, for the winters IN Northern
France must then have been extremely
genial. The land and fresh watersheds
which were contemporaneous with that
remarkable flora in Northwestern Eu-
rope tell precisely the same tale, and
this is still further illustrated and con-
firmed by the character OF the mamma
liam fauna Among the commoner ami
mails at that time occupants of England,
France, etc, were hippopotami,l ele-
plants, rhinoceros, lions, tigers, hye-
enas ETC., and vast numbers of cervine
and bovine animals which still occupy
the temperate latitudes OF Europe.
THAT such genial climatic conditions
were due in large measure to q great in
crease in the volume Of warm water
flowing into the North Atlantic seems
lust as certain as that the Arctic climate
OF the glacial period was largely in
duced by q very considerable decrease
or even an entire steppage of that heat
bearing current. The presence Of many
Mediterranean shells in the ancient
raised beaches Of Scandinavia, the oc
currence Of mussel banks in the coast

last gave instructions how to cult.
tivate corn. l now wish to give instruc.
tons how to select seed for planting
the cotton crop, how to prepare the
land, and how to plant and cultivate a
cotton crop. In order to get the larg-
est ard best seed for cotton planting,
roll the cotton seed in dry time, after
being soaked in copperas water all
night. Prepare coarse wire seive
that will permit the small shriveled and
imperfect seed to pass through it, say
at least three-fourths of the seed. The
one.fourth remaining in the sieve, use
for planting. To prepare the land for
the seed, clean off we'll.
Do this with horse rake. First put
in even rows, and then bunch for burn
ing. Take good two-horse turning
plow-Avery's is good as anyhow
close and deep, six or eight inches,
then harrow and cross-harrow, leaving
your land level and perfectly friable or
free from clods. Then take coalter
or sub-soil pillow and run off your rows
three feet eight inches apart. Plant
very thin in this small row, made by
the coulter or sub-soil pillow. A cotton
planter with rollers attached prefer.
If you have no cotton planter, drop by
hand one seed from four to six inches
apart. Cover cotton, and with an old
fashion bull tongue stock, cut a notch
in a board II inches thick, nine inches
in length, fasten board by shell bolt,
same as shovel pillow. This little board
will cover the cotton seed neatly, leav-
ing small oval ridge for the cotton to
come through, gently packing the seed,
causing all to come up in five or six
days.
When the cotton is up Ct mean all
the seed that will come upC take a
good two-horse harrow (same as for
corn, remove the front tooth and run
over your cotton Same es for corn in
first plowing;) you can pillow out row
at time, seven across per day. AS |
before stated, cotton should be planted
between the LIST and 10th of April.
After narrowing the first time, chop out
your cotton, and bring to stand twelve
to eight inches apart. Your first plow-
ing, after being brought to a stand,
should be with a riding cultivator,
using the light steel sweep; use tenders
and pillow close and deep. In the third
blowing, use the cultivator and same
sweeps, but pillow shallow. The fourth
blowing should be done with the same,
but be very shallow. Deep blowing
will increase the stalks, but lessen the
fruit, and retain the same. Deep plow-
ing late will increase the stalk, but shed
the bloom and squares
Last year I recommended planting in
check, three feet eight inches apart,
with little manure in the hill I pre-
fer this still riding is SO much more
pleasant, and result about the same.
Any farmer knowing any better method
should make it known.-Sa71 antonio

RECENTLY OH the trial of man
for burglary in northern Califor-
MIA county, the judge charged the
jury that the possession of stolen
property was strong circum-
stance tending to show guilt. The
man was convicted, and on appeal
gets a new trial by the State Su-
preme Court, on the sustained
demur that the possession cf stolen
property is circumstance only,
the jury to be sole determining
power whether it be strong or
weak The judges placing of the
word "strong'''in his charge gives
the culprit another chance. There
would be fewer reversals and less
defeat of justice if charges were
curtailed or omitted, and jurors
permitted to pass upon points that
by reason of their supposed in
telligence they are cognizant of.

AN exchange thinks that the
printers trade is not nearly so
good as some others; probably, but
comparatively few persons now
learn that trade in more than one
of its departments. Ii one person
had to learn all there is in it, as III
the days Of the earlier members Of
the craft, it would be the most
difficult of all trades, and require
a higher order of ability than any
other mechanical pursuit. To some
extent the principle applies in all
occupations. There is probably
no structure more complicated,
and requiring higher degree of
mechanical skill in its construction
than an iron steamship. But near.
" all the work is done by unskilled
laborers. There are hundreds OF
different operations, and to learn
either one of them requires but
little time; by combining them all
the finished result is obtained.

The ex-premier of Canada, Sir
John Mcdonald, made speech
recently, in which he said that in
dependence for that country was
farce, and that it must either re-
main part Of the British system
or of the American system. He
emphasized this declaration by a
reference to the relation which
Belgium and Holland sustain to
the European systm, and that of
Mexico to the American system.
There is little doubt that this con-
clusion is the obvious and intelli-
gent one. There is no reason
why, with all the advantages OF
self-government, Canada should
desire to sever her connection
with the British Government, and
equally there is no reason either
in the United States or Canada
why the latter should be annexed
to the former. The domain OF
this country is now quite as ex-
tensive as is consistent with safety
neither is there that common
pride IN their history and surround
ings which will serve to unite the

which different keys may be ap-
phed, and may well be permitted

THERE is one point in conneo-
zion with D. P. Thompson's pres.
ent visit to the East that does not
seem to us in consonance with the
dignity Of his alleged mission. 1t
is the statement that he intends
"looking around New York and
Philadelphia to see what two tugs
can be purchased for" Of course
Mr.. Thompson has q perfect right
to do that, and his. friends have a
perfect right to suggest it, but it
doesn't look exactly polite to give
it such publicity as have the Stand
ard and Oregonian. A good many
people in Portland think that there
is water enough on the bar now,
that all that is wanted is more
tugs; that is a question that we
will say nothing about at present;
but it is pretty generally believed
that Mr.. Thompson has gone Oh to
Washington to do what be can to
make plain the necessity for an
appropriation for. improving the
Columbia river and the mouth of
the Columbia river. Should Mr..
Thompson, in appearing before
any committee, be asked if he be-
lieved that all that was needed was
more tugs and that there was
enough water on the bar if the tug
service were only sufficient; the
fact that he was negotiating for
the purchase of tugs while advo-
eating the necessity of bar i'm
provements would initiate against
any answer he might make in the
negative. OF course this is on the
assumption that Mr.. Thompson is
going to try to have the ap-
preparation which will undoubtedly
be made apply to the bar as well
as the lower Columbia; of course
Mr.. Thompson would not try to
use his influence nor any one else's
to have the appropriation made
for the channel alone and ignore
the greatest need, the improve.

Mr.. Thompson means "to do what

IN the course of Supt. Powell's
remarks last Friday evening, We
were glad to learn that Oregon
stands high on the list of states
rated for the minimum of litter
acy. He stated that the last COM
pilation of educational statistics
to hand showed that but three and
eight hundredths per cent of Ore
CONS population were unable to
read or write. The state standing
first on the list is Iowa, which has
but one and three quarters per
cent of her inhabitants devoid of
the rudiments of education. In
this matter Oregoa ranks New
York, Pennsylvania and Ohio.
