Two SENATE SEATS.


Tho COInpie ~iOn 0t tho Nebraska and Colo
rsdiO Legislatures.
The attention Of politicians Of both
parties is now being directed t. the sena-
tOrial elections in Nebraska and Colorado,
where it is possible some unexpected de-
velopments may occur. In Ncbrasks
forty members were chosen to the lesis-
lature rs Anti Monopolists. Many Of tho
men 50 elected arc Republicans, and there
fore it has been presumed they will act with
the regular members of their party in the
choice of a United States senator. But the
Anti Monopolists wero elected in opposition
to Republican candidates, and are under no
obligation to them. The Anti Monopolists
and Democrats combined will constitute a
majority Of the Legislature. In order to
defeat the regular Republicans the DEM
ocrats may form q coalition with the
Anti Monopolists for the election Of a sen.
ator on an Independent platform, but it is
quite probable that the Republicans will
be able to obtain votes enough from men,
bers OF their own political faith, who have
been elected as Anti Monopolists, to give
them the choice. In Colorado the Re.
publicans will not have majority Of over
three votes, and many Democrats aver
that the fiual official count will make the
Legislature tie. The bitter faction
fight in the Republican organization may
result in failure to elect senator, in
which event the Democratic governor
would make the appointment.

FIELD AND FARM.
Notes for Farmers.

Col. Norman J. Colman, of st. Louis,
editor of the Rural World, was unani-
mously elected President of the Nation
al Association of Nursery, Seeds-men,
and Florists, at their late annual meeting
in Rochester, N. Y.
With all the modern improvements it
is probable no better elements for rails
ing and fattening hogs have been dis
covered than colover and corn. Young
swine, after weanin :, will thrive rapidly
in the range of a clover field, with con-
venient "washes" for wallowing and
drink, and this regimen is the best
preparation for corn feeding in the fall
and winter. When, in addition, they
can have the house and dairy slops,
their growth is accelerated, and they en-
joy the traditional felicity of "pigs in
clover" the year round.
The calculous growths called gravel in
horsesare usually confined to the intes-
tines, and are usually lodged in one of
the cells, little inconvenience arising
from them except when they become
misplaced and produce collie, in
ftammation, or, as is sometimes the case,
total stoppage. They are seldom found
in the bladder, but when such is the
case, the only treatment is to crush
them. This can be done only with mares
Many troubles of the kidneys and blad-
der or often mistaken for gravel.
Laying hens or pullets do not require
such food as will induce them to acquire
superabundance of fat, for this at a
certain stage prevents the production of
eggs, rendering the birds sluggish, and
disposed to fatal diseases. When the
birds are to be fatened for immediate
consumption, then strong, fat-producing
food is needed, and in liberal quantities,
Corn in its different forms, is the best
and cheapest, no doubt, for this purpose
while for laying hens, wheat, wheat
screenings, ETC, are pre- ferable, and gen
orally used by successful poultry breed
ers. Aside from its being better than
corn, wheat is also as cheap. One of the
greatest helps to successful poultry man
aeement, and one upon which frequent,
ly hinges the question of profit or loss, is
regularity in feeding the stock.

free from all tricks &c. The first ten
days no trick was observed. Subsequent
ly my purchase proved to be a deter
mined cribber. The seller was ap-
parently astonished. Nothing of the
kind ever occurred while he owned the
horse. An inspection of the stable
where the horse had been showed
us traces of chewed woodwork. My
brother-in-law, accustomed to horses all
his life, was sorely puzzled. He was con-
WINGED there was some game; and game,
there was. Convinced that had been
'sold,' retaliated by finding. out that
the seller used paste made OF red pep
per and brown soap, lightly applied
wherever and whenever he discovered
marks of teeth in the stall, the paste
being masked by dust scattered on top.
Thus it was, the horse thinking my
woodwork was like his late stable, let
the timbers alone at first. l tried the
remedy. The horse has not attempted
to crib for four months, and stranger
would never imagine that a hundred
little spots within reach of his head have
bits of the paste. The horse knows it,
however, and lets my stall alone"

A SunShiny Woman.

What a blessing toa household is a
merry, chez rful woman-one whose
spirits are not affected by wet days, or
little disappointments, or whose milk
of human kindness does not sour in
the sunshine of prosperity. Such wo-
man in the darkest hours brightens the
house like little piece of sunshiny
weather. The magnetism of her smiles
and the electric brightness of her looks
and m ovements infect every one. The
childr en- 90 to school with the sense OF
something great to be achieved, her hus-
band goes into the world in a conquer
or's spirit. No matter how people an
noy and worry him all day, far off her
presence shines, and he whispers to
himself, "At home l shall find rest"
So day by day she literally renews his
strength and energy, and if you know a
man with beaming face, a kind heart,
and a prosperous business, in nine cases
out of ten you will find he has wife of
this kind.

The Great ReyiyaIist.

Mr.. Moody, the evangelist, met about
one hundred gentlemen in London on
the 18th inst to confer ais 20 future plans.
There were present representatives from
many towns in the kingdom, as well as
from London. Mr.. Moody said that he
had in hand sufficient invitations to keep
him hard at work in Great Britain for
the remainder of his life, and he was
urged to return to Chicago at once. He
proposed, however, moving about Scot
land for short time, and then visiting
Paris for a fortnight. After that he hoped
to preach in number of towns in the
south and southwest of England. Liver
pool might probably be reached next
spring, and London last of all, where a
long stay was nececessary. 1t was ulti-
mately decided that all future arrange
ments should be left in the hands of the
London committee.

Buckwheat,
buCk"1CdC.
American Agricultureist.

American Agricultureist.
Buckwheat is the latest grain crop of
the season, and in the latitude of New
York is usually sown from the last OF
June to the middle of July. 1t is fire.
quently sown as a filing crop, that is, on
ground where some other crop has fail
ed. 1t, makes an excellent cleansing
crop on foul or rough land, especially
upon rich soil, where it makes rank
growth and smothers out all other
plants. Buckwheat is used to some ex-
der for wheat or rye. The buckwheat
plant is a deep feeder, and has the pow
er of obtaining the food elements when
present only in small quantities in the
soil. Light sandy soils. deficient in
vegetable matter, can be brought up to a
good state of cultivation by first growing
buckwheat as green manure crop,
followed by clover, which is afterward
turned under. Though buckwheat
will grow on comparatively poor
soil, it makes good use of large dress
ing or barnyard manure or some quick
acting fertilizer. A hundred pounds of
Peruvian guano or an equal weight of
fish scrap will greatly raise the yield Of
a buckwheat crop on poor soil, and
prove a profitable investment for the
outlay. The harvesting of buckwheat is
quite different from that of other grains.
The grain "shells" or drops from the
straw very readily, and therefore must
be gathered with special care. It is
best to cut it with cradle and leave it
in the swath until the next morning,
when it should be rolled and set on end
while it is moist with the dew. After
standing for few days it is ready to be
threshed. The straw has no special val
ne as fodder, but should be used as a
litter and absorbent of liquid manure.
The grain makes an excellent food for
poultry, and when its -four is in the
form of cakes it is highly priced, espec-
tally in cold weather.

HELPS for Farmers.

There is no doubt whatever that our
western farmers are adopting agricultur-
al improvements, both of methods and
implements, with commendable zeal.
Twenty years ago commercial fertilizers
eyre rarely thought of, and patent sulky
plows, mowers, reapers, etc., were gen.
orally eschewed. But labor saving has
become as expedient with farmers as
with manufacturers, not that competition
has so rapidly increased with the one
class as with the other-for farm pro-
ducts maintain value the better-but be-
cause farming is more scientifically and
Systematically pursued than formerly,
and farmers, as a guild, demand more
leisure for social and intellectual enjoy
ment. The day has passed, we trust, if
it ever existed, when the American
farmer, like the old Saxon churl or the
Russian serf of the present time, will re-
main content with mere existence, with
out ambition to adorn his profession or
to benefit himself or his race.
