Representative Cassidy, who is now in
Washington, said in reference to the
New York movement fayoring the dis
continuance Of tSe coinage of standard
dollars, that the Pacific Coast members
would insist that if any change is made
in the Coinage Act, unlimited coinage
should be allowed, giving the right to all
to send their silver to the minis and have
it coined the same as it was done before
the present act was adopted.

A Washington dispatch says: There
have been assertions and denials without
number made in regard to President Ar
thurs desire to succeed himself in the
Presidential chair. 1t is no longer a
secret. and his most intimate friends
admit that while he is in no sense an APP
plicant for the honor, he will not decline
denomination. So far no very large
Republican has been willing to step in
the ring and contest the nomination with
him. Blaine has been away from the
city for some time, but has been tele.
graphed for and will be here next week,
when his friends will talk the matter
over with him. He, too, has stated that
he wcs not a candidate; that his two
efforts to get the nomination were all
that he wanted in that direction. His
friends now are confident that he will
allow the, use of his name as against
Arthur. Under the circumstances sew
eral Republicans who. were prominent as
candidates seem to have given up all
hope. Edmunds was the first to draw
out, and Window followed when he
found be was beaten for the Senate. The
booms for Logan and Harrison died out
on their account, and the Gresham boom
was never weighty enough for respectable
consideration. That cleared up the list.
Arthur and Blaine are left, and there are
many well up in the political affairs of
the country who regard the race for the
nomination as between them. The Pres
idents New York friends are losing no
opportunity now to impress Others with
the belief that he will accept renomina-
tion if rendered to him.

Chicken Houses,

Many mi: takes have been made in sup
posing that the principal hindrance TO
egg production is the effect of cold. The
trouble is usually due to dampness.
Fowls do not suffer as much during the
times of extreme cold in winter as they
do II the latter part of the fall. This is
apparent to all who are familiar with the
habits OF poultry, as it is well known
that the warmcst and mcst comfortable
quarters will not tempt them to remain
10 their houses on clear dry days, even
when the temperature is in the neighbor-
hood OF zero. At such time, if well
fed, they will keep in good health, and
the production of eggs will be quite sat
lsfactory. On the cold, damp days,
however, they suffer very much, espec-
lally If such weather is continuous. It
IS at this time that roup puts IN an ap-
pearance and makes sad havoc with the
flock. Such breeds as the Polands
and the Houdans, which are orna-
mentcd with crests, become "water-
soaked" and seldom iail to contract a
roup in some form. To obyiate the diff
iculty is to induce the fowls to remain
in their quarters on damp days. This
they will not do unless such places are
very clean and free from odor. They
dislike the fumes Of ammonia, and, al
though they 1eti,e TO such quarters at
night for want of something better, they
leave as early IN the morning aJ possible,
preferring the disagreeahle weather out
side to the escaping gases inside. They
also love the light, and will not stay IN
dark places during daylight. The guar
ters should, therefore, be furnished with
windows TO admit plenty of light. A
small shed, open to the south, with a
floor of loose dirt to dust in, is favorite
resort, and should be attached to the
poultry house, which would make the
expense but little. and, besides atfording
shelter during storms, becomes a sunny,
sheltered resort during the clear days of
winter. The fall is more critical time
than winter, and little preparation ut
this time Tor the comfort of the fowls
wlllreward the poulterer with an increase
of the egg supply.

Applying Ashes.

When we reflect that ashes contain
elements that were indispensable to the
growth of the trees and that these same
clements are drawn from the soil by
farm crops, it is easy to see that their
value has not been over-estimated. In
applying it we furnish plant food in Il
form ready for use. Their action is
quick and in many soils their effect may
be noted for years. 1t is not advisable
to apply them in large quantities upon
a light sandy soil because of their ready
soluble nature the most valuable con-
stituepts are generally washed through
the soil by lains and carried beyond the
reach of the rootlets of plants. On
elayey soils or those already rch in pro-
ductive matter the contrary is the case.
Iheirretentive nature will allow of large
application without waste; perhaps 100
bushels to the acre would be safe econ
omy. The crops that receive the most
benefit from the use are corn, potatoes,
grass and root crops, fruit trees may also
be included 1t is best to apply them
on or near the surface as through the
actions of the rains they work down
ward. Laached ashes require to be
used more literally. 1t is true that the
most valuable properties have been le-
moved, yet there remains enough of pot
ash to make good. effect. When ap-
piled to grass as top dressing, great
care should be taken 10 do it evenly

They're queer let, these church

a position in q choir. He heard of a
vacancy aud went to see the chairman
Of the committee, who was, l believe, q

Framing Vicious ssor,c,.

A new and very simple method of
training vicious horses was exhibited in
West Philadelphia recently, and the
manner in which some of the widest
horses were subdued the Philadelphia
Record calls astonishing. The first trial
was that OF kicking OF "bucking"
mare, which her owner sad had allowed
no rider on her back for period of at
least five years. She became tame in
about rs many minutes, and allowed
herself to be ridden about without
sign of her former wildness. The means
by which the result was accomplished
was by piece Of light rope which was
passed around the front Of The Jaw of the
mare just above the upper teeth, crossed
III her mouth, thence secured back of
her ueck. 1t was claimed that no horse
would kick or jump When thus secured,
and that horse, after receiving the
treatment few times, will abandon his
vicious ways forever. A very simple
method was also shown by which a kick
ing horse could be shod. 1t consisted
IN connecting the animals head and tail
by means OF rope fastened to the tsil
and then to the bit, and then drawn
nightly enough to incline the animals
head to one side. That, it is claimed,
makes it absolutely impossible for the
horse 10 kick on one s.de of the rome.
At the same exhibition horse, which
for many years had to be bound on the
ground to be shod, suffered the black
smith 70 operate on bin without attempt
iog TO kick, while secured in the manner
described,

Benefit OF Stirring the Soil,

Ibe result of n series of careful eX-
pe1lments at the New York experim ent-
al station (Agriculturui) are given be.
low:
The question of drouth is one which
periodically engages attention, and any
means by which its injurious effect NAV
be mitigated should certainly be known
to the farmer. That cultivation, by
forming loose soil upon the surface,
which acts as mulch, conserves the
water to the soil, is fact that is well
established, and should be more com.
monty appreciated. For the purpose of
offering numerical values which shall
express the influence of cultivation, we
have tried the following experiments:
Oak boxes of one cubic foot capacity
were made of half inch stuff and thor
oughly soaked with oil. The bottoms
being removed, the frame was forced
down into the earth in the corn fields,
and the bottoms afterwards put in posi-
ton. We thus had cubic foot OF soil
in its natural position. The surface of
the earth in one box was left undisturb-
ed, while the surfaces of two boxes were
kept cultivated. By weighing these
boxes the gain or loss in weight is as
sumed to measure the evaporation which
has taken place from each. From July
26th to August 1st, six days, the cultiva.
ted soil evaporated at the. rate of 906gaI-
Ions per acre less thaa the nndisturbed
soil, or less Isl gallons daily per acre.
From August 1st to August 10th, line
days, the cultivated soil evaporated g.
367 gallons per acre less than did the
undisturbed soil, or less 263 gallons
daily per acre. During the whole Pc
riod from July Goth to August 10th,
fifteen days, the saving of water effect
ed through cultivation figured up 242
gallons daily per acre, or expressing
these facts in another form, the undis.
turbed soil lost per acre, from July 26th
