ECONOMY IN Use OF SoAP.-A nice
soft soap for washing dishes can be se-
cured by placing in an old dish land oc-
casionally adding water) all the scraps
and bits of hard soap which are too
small to use for washing.

TREE BEA.Ss.-In some parts of Texas
tree beans ar sold as feed for horses. A
certain kind of locust bean is used, both
green and dry, in the South of Spain for
horses feed.
Oars I!oR PRoFT--A subscriber asks
how he can make oats q paying crop? ?
By giving thorough cultivation and ap-
plying plenty of manure. Also give at
tention to the proper rotation, and do not
raise oats on the same spot year after
year.
SWEET PorAro AY.-A Southern
writer says: "Sweet-potato vines make
q rather inferior hay, which stock will
eat when nothing better is to be had.
Gather the vines Just before the time for
frost and throw them up into small
cocks or stacks for u few days to sweat.
This toughens the leaves and prevents
crumbling off ii, handling. After this
dry the vines an d store them away under
shelter for use. +"

unshod horses can with difficulty get

horse feels his feet" and knows what
he is doing with them, SO he scarcely
knows what. it is to over-reach himself,
and even if he does such thing no evil
consequences are ever noticed, because

MILLET. mIlet, says the
Prairie Farmer, grows to the height OF
three or four feet, and bears loose PAN
icle of seeds hanging on one side. Ger
man millet has numerous succulent
leaves, is larger and considered more
nutritious than common millet. The
leaves remain green until the seed ma
lures. Pearl millet is known under va
rious names, as Egyptian millet, etc. 1t
was sent out by the Agricultural Depart
ment at Washington in 1879 Us new
variety, but proved to be variety that
had been previously cultivated In the
extreme Southern States. The testimo-
ny of farmers and planters is that it is
of little value unless cut as q green for
age. 1t grows rapidly and is eaten with
relish by stock, but if allowed to attain
full growth or produce seed it becomes
useless for hay. 1t is more exhaustive
to the soil than either common millet
or German millet. The yield per acre
varies largely with different soils and
other conditions. Common millet may
be sown at any time before the 25th OF
June in this latitude. If sown early it
usually is mature in August. Eight
quarts per acre of seed is sown if intend.
ed chiefly for cattle feed. Hungarian is
the most productive, and is much more
generally cultivated than the common
millet. The quantity of seed recon-
mended for pear millet per acre varies
largely in different localities. 1t should
be drilled in.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 22.-The surgeons
of the marine hospital service have re-
ceived report from Brownsville, Texas,

in the towns of PomatiOn and Puorcia-
con, Mexico; that yellow fever is re
ported at Tampico and Panama, and
that the black small pox is prevalent in
Guatemala, the victims being princi-
pally foreigners. There were 160 deaths
from cholera at Sandionisko and Okla
ga during the month, and AT deaths

BEE CULTUhE.-H any one should
lind fertile worker in q colony, says o
writer IN the Bee Journal, let him try
the following experiment Shake the
bees from all but one or two combs dur
ing the day, and at night, VIII en- the
neeS are quiet, remove the hive to a new
stand and put new hive with the
combs taken from the old colony on
the old stand. In the morning the bees
VIII commence to go back to the old
stand, and, after sufficient number of
them have returned, give them queen
cell and brood Ill all stages. The bees
III a colony having a fertile worker are.
OF course, nearly all old bees, and SO
will nearly all return to the old stand.
1he fertile worker and a few bees will
remain, which can be destroyed or
united with the colony after the queen
Is established This manner of treat.
ment reminds me of very sure way to
Introduce queens. Remove the hive tc
TO new stand and place a hive contain
ing frame or two of brood on the old
stand. After all the old bees have re.
turned to the old stand, introduce the
queen t" tie Young bees left in the
hlv'. ani .'i...' s'',n I,a, commenced to
lay take the hive off the old stand and
return the old hive containing the queen.
The old bees will return gradually, but
SO few returning at time, and they
finding the queen so quiet on the combs,
do not offer to touch her. This is the
way 1 introduce imported queens and
all those which I do not wish to run
any risk on.
SonING.-A correspondent of the |
Io'0a Homestead, who keeps five cows
on five acres of ground, from which, be-
sides supplying his family with milk
and cream, he manufactures 1900 |
pounds OF butter annually and raises
calf from each COW, thus describes how
he does 1t: 81 have five acres, about
two and tlIree-fourths in pasture, mostly
blue grass. have strip fourteen rods
long and four rods wide that consists Of
timothy and clover, which I cut twice
and sometimes three times season.
As soon as it viii do to cut feed it reg
ularly to the COWS twice each day, and
1t lasts till the corn is ready for use.
There Is strip fourteen rods long and
ten rods wide which plant with sweet
corn for fodder. l made dropper that
attach to n two.horse planter, which
makes the stalks about two inches apart
IN the row. l plant at three different
times, so as to have it early and late.
About the 1st of July 1 commence to
thin out, leaving a stalk about once In
foot. BY the time get over the piece,
that which is left is nearly all cared out.
Then commence cutting it up clean.
When 1 get it half cut up plow the
ground and SOW winter rye. I SOW the
balance as soon as the corn is off. This
makes good pasture late in the fall and
early in the spring. We feed our COWS
six quarts of corn-meal and bran, mixed
equal parts by weight, each day. This
is the way summer five COWS on five
acres, and have done so for three years
past. I manure the ground high, and
that is what makes good crops" II

ENDICoTT VERSUS BROWNE.

The people of Massachusetts have had a great many interesting topics for discussion during the last three or four months The latest thing to stir them up was the attack
 made by Andrew J. Browne, chairman of the House Committee on Taxation, upon Mir. Charles B. Endicott and Gamaliel Bradford. In discussing certain bill MT. Browne took occasion to say some very malicious things concerning these two gentlemen. MT. Endi- colt felt so aggrieved by the remarks of MT. Browne concerning him that he has decided to bring suit for slAndeE and lays his dam ages at ten thousand dollars. He has been advised, it is said, by eminent counsel, that Mir. Browne so greatly exceeded the legiti- mate limits of debate that the protection guaranteed by the Bill of Rights of Massa- ohusetts will not avail him.
 Mir. Endicott had abundant reason to feel aggrieved, for MT. Browne's attack was very savage and unwarrantable one. But he and his counsel appear to have made a mis- take in trying to reach MT. Browne through the courts, and to recover damages in suit at law for words, however malicious and irrelevant, spoken in a legislative de- bate. Article twenty-one of the Massa- chusetts Bill of Rights 1eads: ''The freedom of deliberation, speech and debate in either house of the Legislature is so essential to the rights of the people that it cannot be the foundation of any accusation or prosecution, action complaint in any other court or place whatsoever There does not seem to be any way to get around this. These words, as the Worcester Spy says, mean precisely what the constitution of the United States means when it says of the senators and rep resentatives, that stfer any speech or debate in either house they shall not be questioned in any other place." This was the privilege of parliament in England, and it is, as the Bill of Rights says, essential to the rights Of the people. It would be simply usurpation of authority for any court to undertake to define the limits of debate and declare if any representative goes beyond them, if he says what the court thinks he ought not to say, he shall be held to answer, and his words spoken in debate may be made the foundation of an action for damages.
 In view of the declaration of the Massachu- setts Bill of Rights bearing upon the case it seems strange that good lawyers should have advised Mir. Endicott to sue MT. Browne. It will be interesting to watch the case if it ever comes into court. The rights of members of the legislature are as well defined in this State as in Massachusetts,. Section ten of ar ticle three of the constitution says: "The senators and representatives shall. in all cases of civil process, be privileged from ar- rest during the session of the General As- sembly and for four days before the com and after the terminatien of any session thereof. And for any speech or de- bate in either house they shell not be ques. toned in any other place.
