MADRID, July 1O.-In the Chamber of
Deputies to-day debate was raised by
the Democrats on the policy which the
government has begun.
Senior Dominique. among other speak
ers attacked the government, which, he
said, was not liberal enough. He de-
clared that his party only accepted the
constitution of 1876 with a view of revls-
ing it on the lines of that of 1869.
Prime Minister Sagasta, in reply said
that he was willing to embrace even the
extreme Democrats among the Liberals.
and to introduce by organic laws the
most liberal reforms, but he thought that
change in the constitution was not nec-
essary for this purpose. He was not,
however, obstinately opposed to change
in the constitution if experience showed
that it was necessary.

board and spool of blue sewing-silk will
be all that is necessary for it. OF the paste
board cut four circular pieces, each one
measuring seven inches across. Cover these
four pieces smoothly with blue silesia, and
overland the edges of two together with
blue silk, the remaining two to be done in
the same way for the opposite side. The
puff should be straight piece measuring
sixty inches long, and twelve inches wide.
This is to be gathered each side to nit round
the edge of the circular piece, leaving a
space at the top of the circle three
inches. for the opening. The puff is now to
be sewed all round the edges of each circular
piece except the place for the opening-the
raw edges of the puff of course, being placed
on the inside. Make for the outside of one
of the circles piece the same shape and
size, and either embroider or paint a pretty

Where it is fastened place a. bow OF the satin

the needle-book by means of little strap
sewed to the circle beneath the merino
leaves. On the opposite circle piece of

piece of elastic is run holding the pocket
quite close but allowing it to be easily

necessary for the work are conveniently at
hand. The satin ribbon is used as a gather

top, and the interior OF the bag is the re-

to make them handsorner, satin, either col

Our Farm Help.


Is it not time that we farmers who hire
begin to make more discrimination in re-
gard to the help we hire? 1t is an imposition
upon the experienced, skilled and reliable
man that wishes to hire out, to ask him to
work for the same wages as given to those
green and know-nothing ones that vex the
life out of the farmer by their many mistakes.
Let us demand higher standard for farm
labor and pay well for it, and demand at the
same time that experience must pay for the
education we give them.
Beyond all question there is no trade or
profession that takes so many years of prac-
tice to make anything like perfection as the
occupation of farming. 1t takes to-day more
real thought, planning, skill and years OF pa
tient application to run successfully good
sized farm than it does to almost any other
business. II is really more of trade than
any of the mechanical pursuits. In this State
especially, farming to be successful, must in
clude stock raising in many of its forms.
This includes knowledge of animal life, of
breeding, OF feeding, ETC., ETC., that requires
study and close observation. There is no
place where a wide range of reading and
broad intelligence can find so pleasant
sphere as on the farm of to-day, and the fu-
ture is to demand still higher qualities in the
successful farmer.

turage. Land is selected for other purposes,
but the land for pasturage is what was re-
jected as unsuited for any other use. Some
times piece of land originally productive is
devoted to pasture purposes. If this is the
case it is generally after il has been chopped

eral years, then sown to grain for a period
equally long, and then laid down to grass
suited for moving purposes. After the crop
OF grass becomes so light that IL scarcely pays
Tor the work of cutting, the farmer con-
eludes that the only thing he can do With the
land is to devote it to supporting stock dur
ing the summer when he expects to make
the most out of them. There are no evidences
of bene6cent design in most of the pastures
in this country. They are the work of chance
