THE COINAGE OF SILVER.

At meeting Of the house committee on
coinage, weights aud measures to-day. Re-
preventative Buckner gave his reasons for the
introduction Of the bill to stop the coinage Of
silver. Chairman Bland was absent, being
detained at home in Missouri by the danger
GUS illness of his daughter. Mr.. Buckner
said:
''The introduction of the bill was not a
matter Of sudden impulse. I talked with
friends during the first session Of this con-
gress about the propriety of introducing it.
and they said something ought TO be done.
The present administration, If not hostile, is
careless about the silver. There seems no
hope Of its doing anything. The
new administration may take a more
earnest interest. 1t is evident
the time has come when this government
ought to act deeisively, and the question TO
decide is whether we are TO have bimetalsm
or monometalism. Foreign countries have
taken up the question. Holland has a large

is center of attraction to-day. Il
is a little odd that his daughter, born
while he was secretary of the treasury
years ago, is just now to make her bow in
society when he is again filling this place
OF course, there is the usual attendance at
the residence of the secretary Of state, for
the receptions there are always popular. Mrs.
Chandler also received at her beautiful
home on / street. Mrs. Lincoln
is not yet receiving, and as both the
secretary of the interior and the postmaster
general are on their way to the New Orleans
exposition, accompanied by their ladies,
the number of cabinet receptions is some
what restricted.
Tomorrow there is to be a reception by
the National Rifles, prominent military
organization of the city, at their armory, at
which teey open the season Of
their social entertainments, which are
fashionable and popular. There is also to
be meeting this week of leading members
of the Bachelors German" club to prepare
for the winters festivities. Tomorrow
evening there viii take place another we'd

Burgess, of this city On Friday there are
to be more receptions, and on Saturday some

Farming with Figures.

If a strict account were kept with
every acre of the farm, a note made of
the acres that produce and those that
do not, it would be a surprise to many
farmers to know how few of the acres
they farm really Welded a profit, and
how many fail to return any income.
When once this is found, how easy it
would be to put the whole in q way of
paying something towards the sum that
might be realized. Some one has said
most farmers have a better method of
farming in their heads than they put
into actual practice. This is no doubt
true. How many farmers know that
their swamp lot is unproductive. and
by the outlay of 800 for q ditch, and
clearing, that five or ten acres would be
the best land on the farm? Why don't
they put their knowledge into practice?
That large pasture is nearly unproduct-
i've, and it only supports q few sheep.
They know it, and do know if it were
plowed it could be made to produce a
most abundant crop of clover, How
many dairymen know that ten of their
forty COWS do not pay for their keep
ing, but actually ''live" of the profits of
the others? How many farmers know
that they do not half fertilize their
land, do not half drag, or fit the soil for
the crops. and if they would use the hoe
and cultivator twice as much they would
get double the crop for their labor?
Why don't they do it? How many
who hastily perform their work, to '.get
it of their hands," know as well as
Solomon could tell them that their haste
is waste, and that thorough work would
paw far better, and why don't they9
The success in farming at the present
day is not so much what is undertaken,
but what is actually performed and
completed in workmanlike manner.
Success in farming is complete, finished
methods. Anything that is worth do
ing is worth doing WE'LL" is an old say
ing, but farmers are not fully c~ognizant
of it, or else fail in following its princi
pies. The successful farmer of the
future will not be a bonanza farmer
making an attempt to farm ''all crea-
tion," but the who farms upon bust
ness methods, making every outlay
bring definite and paying returns, and
making the whole farm productive.
rather than making a few acres bear
the whole load of obligation.

The Profit In Farming.

In agriculture, as in al other indus
tries, it is the best use Of opportunities
and materials that makes the most
profit. The soil is the material from
which the farmer produces his income.
1t is productive only when it is at work,
that is, when it is bearing some crop.
When it is idle it is simply so much
money at rest and yielding no interest:
The soil, too, like money, is exhausted
when it is idle, and is increasing in
value when it is at work. One might
as well fear that so much money as the
land is worth would become reduced in
value by being well invested, q that
the land would be impoverished when
it is in q productive condition. This
can be very clearly shown. A field is
sown nov to rye, and the crop will DO
gathered next July. Frequently it will
lie until the next spring, when it may
be planted to corn. The corr will stand
. month after it is ripe and might be
cut. and the land will be plOwed in the
spring and sown with oats. The oat
stubble will be two months before it IS
plowed and sOwn to fall grain of some
kind. Now the ground has been idle
more than half the time, producing
nothing. On the other hand, q field
now in rye or wheat may be plowed
as soon as the crop Is cut and
planted with fodder corn. or
sown with millet. or q green crop
such as rape, or with turnips. and from
five to ten OF fifteen tons per acre OF val
liable fodder taken from the soil. This
will feed a good many stock. sheep. pigs.
cattle, or cows, and the whole value OF
it will be returned in manure. Or the
crop may be plowed under and the soil
greatly enriched by it. The following
corr crop will be increased either way
by the manure or the green stuff Plowed
in. If the corn is put in in good season,
the land being plowed in the fall 50 that
no time is lost, and is cut as oon as the
grain in glazed. rye may be sown and
narrowed in, and a good fall or winter
pasture may be secured. There will be
Something to be plowed in. too, in the
sprinc more or less, and again the land
will be in better condition. This con-
slant cropping will keep down weeds
and will produce something that may
be fed to stock, and if done, Is . rule.
will easily provide fodder for twice -
much live stock as the farm usually car
ries. No farmer will have q shadow Of
q doubt that at the end of ten years with
such treatment as this his land Will be
far richer and more productive. and he
will be propOrtionately richer himself
than if it had laid idle six months of
each of those years.-N. Y. Times.
