UPON Saturday last, the final number of
the Congressional Record for the session OF
congress just closed, was issued. 1t is de-
lightful number. Forty-six columns are de-
voted to the publication Of a speech by
congressman named sumner, alleged to
have been made June 10; another congress
man, Cutchen.. by name, fills a few pages
with an alleged speech under date of June
TO- Then there is speech attributed to
Senator Plumb, which it is claimed he de-
livered May 6, though until the Record was
issued nobody ever knew it. On the 10th
April Mr.. Willis is credited with having made
a speech, while it is creditably believed that
he was not present in congress on that day
at all. If there is one humbug greater than
another the name of it is the Congressional
Record. 1t is simply an extravaganza fraud
and ought to be abolished.

THE INFLUENCE OF POLLEN,

The effect of pollen upon the fruit and
seeds OF plants is subject that has frequent
ly engaged the attention of both practical
and scientific horticuturists during the past
score or two of years. All admit that pollen
is an important factor in the production of
seed. Furthermore, if there is seed there
must be some other organ present to sup
port it-a lruit-stalk; an envelope to en-
close it, as in the apple, pear, cherry, and
slmilar fruits, or something to rest upon, as
in the strawberry, raspberry and blackber-
ry. Consequently we must admit that the
influence OF the pollen does necessarily ex-
tend beyond what We term the fruit or even
the seed. Quite recently this subject has
come up anew, and interesting discussions
have followed at several meetings ot the
horticulturists as well as in the columns OF
the various agricultural and horticultural
journals.
We find the same influence exists in mel
Ions, squashes, cucumbers, and similar
fruits, and often to such an extent that a
choice and hign-tlavored variety is almost
ruined by being planted near an interior
one. A more striking and familiar exam
pie of the influence OF pollen is that OF sweet
corn tertilized by the pollen OF field corn.
1t yellow variety OF field corn is planted
near any variety OF sweet corn, and both
come into bloom at the same time, there
will be yellow kernels interspersed among
the grains of the sweet and the flavor OF
these will be as distinct as their color. The
influence of the pollen in this case not only
extends to size, color, texture, and flavor,
but often still further, for the coloring mat
ter will usually be seen in the cob. Ii will
be the same with two white varieties, but
the effect is more readily observed when
one variety is either yellow or red.-Ane1i-
can AQricuLtW2ist.

MORE ABOUT POTATO SCAB.

In confirmation of the opinion expressed
in our former issues that scab is not caused
by manure nor wire-worms, the experience
OF our correspondent F. A. B., in Massachu-
setts, is of considerable interest. He writes:
"The past season planted White Elephant
potatoes, side by side, on old ground that
had been planted three years, and also on
new sod ground used horse and COW ma
nure broadcast, also Mape's "a Brand"
Fertilizer in the hills. The potatoes on old
ground were very scabby, while on the new
ground they were as nice and smooth as
YOU could ask for. Now, had the old
ground lost some properties nece 'ary to
the proper development of the tubersF and
what was it? If not, why should they
grow smooth on the new ground all other
conditions being the same: L hunted c&Ee-

A FINE EXHIBIT AT THE FAIR.

The finest display of farm products at the
late Territorial Fair at Helena, was made
by A. Newbury, of Prickly Pear valley. 1t
occupied the center table in the hall, cover
ing it nearly the full length and comprised
complete variety of vegetables and cereals
that are generally grown in this climate.
There were cabbages, squashes, turnips,
ruabagas, onions, citrons, beets, cowcum-
bers, carrots, wheat, oats, barley and four
teen varieties of Irish potatoes.
The vegetables were generally admired
by every visitor. Probably no other farmer
in the Territory could have made such a
showing, since none enter so extensively
INTO the matter of experimenting. Mr..
Newbury was awarded fourteen premiums
and quite number of second premiums on
his farm products. Several premiums were
awarded him on his show of hogs, which
was most excellent, being only equaled by
Governor Crosby's exhibit. Mr.. MS pre-
miums, which were paid in cash, amounted
to ninety dollars, Il pretty good reward
for his efforts to show the products OF his
farm.
1T Montana farmers generally were as
well disposed to exhibit their products as
Mr.. Newbury, the agricultural show at oul
Territorial fairs would be by far the most
interesting feature.

TO FATTEN CHICKENS.

A correspondent of the New York Tri-
bu,ae and Farmer takes the position that it is
hopeless to attempt to fatten young chick
ems while they are running at large. He
says they must be put in proper coops, yet
these, like other poultry appurtenances.
need not be expensive. 70 tatten twelve
chickens coop may be three feet long,
eighteen inches high, and eighteen inches
deep, made entirely of bars. No part of it
solid-neither top, sides or bottom. Dis
cretion must be used according to the sizes
of the chickens put up. They do not want
room; indeed the closer they are, the better
provided they can all stand up at the
same time. Care must be taken to put up
such as have been accustomed to be togeth-
er, or they will fight. If one is quarrelsome
it is better to remove it at once as, like
other bad examples, it soon finds imitators.
A diseased chicken should not be put up.
The food should be ground oats; and may
either be put in trough or on fiat board
running along the front of the coop. 1t may
be mixed with water or milk; the latter is
better. L should be we'll slaked, forming
pulp as loose as can be, provided it don't
run off the board. They must be well fed
| three times per day-the first time as soon
after aybreak as il may be possible or con-
venienI, and then at intervals of four hours.
Each meal should be as much and no more
than they can eat up clean. When they are
done feeding the board should be wiped
and some gravel may be spread. 1t causes
them to feed and thrive.
After a fortnight of this treatment you
will have good lat fowls. If, however,
there are but four or six to be fatted, they
must not have as much room as though
there were twelve. Nothing is easier than
necessary to have two or three pieces of
wood to pass between the bars, and form a
partition. This may also serve when fowls
are up at different stages of fatness. This
requires attention, or fowls will not keep
lat and healthy.
AS soon as the fowl is sufficiently fatted
it must be killed; otherwise it will still get
tat, but it will still lose flesh. 1t fowls are
intended for the market, of course they are,
all fatted at once; but if for home con-
sumption, it is better to put them up at
such intervals as will be required for the
table.
! When the time arrives for killing, wheth-
er they are meant for market or otherwise,
they should be tasted without food or water
tor twelve or fifteen hours. This enables
them to be kept for some time after being
killed, even in hot weather.

DIARRHEA.

Loose intestinal discharges are not always
indicative of dangerous disease, although in
those sectious of the country where chicken
cholera prevails, any tendency to diarrhea is
sufficient to cause alarm, for that is the ear
Iest and most prominent symptom of that
disease. Sudden changes of food may
cause looseness of the bowels. All ami
mails are subject to occasional attacks of
this kind, the result of taking large quanti-
ties OF green stuff after having been for
long time kept on dry food. There is no
necessity tor any medicine in such cases,
and it is best not to interfere, as this is only
natural operation, and will result in an in
crease of health A looseness of this kind
will not reduce the strength rapidly; where
as, in case of cholera, the fowl will in most
instances decline very rapidly, the discharg-
es being green and trothy.
Diarrhea may be the result of taking cold
IN draft of air, and the first thing to do is
to correct the cause. Or it many be brought
on by improper food, moldy corn, or an
excess of meat. At time the fowl loses her
laying powers, and will net commence lay
ing again till perfectly well. Scalded meal
ard boiled rice should be given. Ordinarily
there will be recovery without any care or
trouble; but it is sometimes desirable to
restore valuable fancy stock as soon as pos
sible, to avoid loss of time in the breeding
season. 1t is not advisable to give doses in
these cases. A little oxide of iron in the
drinking water is good, and may be OBJ
tanned by scraping the rust from any old
iron or putting the water in very rusty
iron vessel. This not specific fer darrhea,
but will give strength to fowls that from
