For The Water Board.

There has been so much fault round with
the water board. on the subject Of sprink-
ling, that place is made for the following
communication, which voices all of the
complaints:
To the Editor Of the Globe;
The city water works says to it's patrons
that they shall pay for sprinkling of their
lawns whether they use sprinkler or not.
How is this? II or thousand and one others
do notchOose to sprinkle our lawns should we
be charged for same? 1.-THE water works per-
Sist in this matter and force myself and
others, poor men, to pay this tax, why
shouldn't a bank, a store, or any other body
say, ''You owe me so much, and I expect
you to pay it," Another thing, why should
a man, or a woman for that matter, pay for
something, even to a corporation, that he
does not use? This matter, extending and
far-reaching as it is, needs, 1 think, very
serious consideration. AS for myself do
very much dislike to pay something for
nothing. Also, if want my lawn sprinkled
and require city water l am willing to pay
for it. Moreover, if l don't want to sprinkle
my lawn, don't want to pay the water
works for something do not use.
The rule established by the water works
is an arbitrary one and one which ought not
to be respected. No man can be forced into
an obligation against his will. In other
words no man can be charged and held re-
sponsible for goods he never purchased. T.

The Power of Abstraction.

According to one Of bis friends.
Victor Hugo wrote 'Notre Dame

up III one room. locking up his clothes
lest they should tempt him to 60 into
the streets. and spent the whole Of
that winter wrapped up IN big gray
comforter writing against time tocOm-
plete his work for the first Of Februa-
r., 1881. The author Of work on
French political leaders tells Us that
Victor Hugo wrote that terribly pa

was written IN four days. AS he lived
near the Tuileries garden he was &c
customed to walk there under the

suppose win be the effect Of carrying
the practice to al excess. namely, the
loss Of crops BY the drought thus pro-
duced, and II widely adopted the
country becoming as dry as 8 desert.
Nothing can be more erroneous, says the
Country Gentleman, and the writer's
who indulge in these remarks have
adopted the opinion ty reason il their

Nothing ats the soil better for en-

capable Of being finely pulyerized. In
which condition it viii hold moisture

Ing plants. Surplus water. on the other
hand, makes mortar Of the soil, which,
when dry, becomes baked hard like 4
brick. such soil cannot be rendered
iino and mellow; Il IS either too dry to
work, q else il Is broken up into hard
clods. We have had an opportunity
for seeing this result. both ways il

On the 18th, when three feet high, it
was ploughed under with the aid of q

beam. a heavy drag was then run
over the ground twice. furrowed, and
planted to Egyptian sweet corn. AT
FIRST the soil was very hard to cultivate.
but afterward it became loose and fine.
and kept moist throughout the season.
The corn grew astonishingly vigorous,

raised. and the land stiIl shows the
effects Of this manuring with rye.
