cause there are many wandering and ma
rauding remnants of guerrilla companies
in the Cumberland Mountains, and other
parts of the South is no reason why the
whole South should be under military
control. Probably Ireland is the greatest
and most sorrowful example of curing
home evils from abroad, and even such
good and worthy men as Mr.. Foster and
Earl Spencer are as much at sea in their
policy and place as men can be. What is
the reason England cannot bring politi-
cal order out of her Irish chaos? 1t is
simply because she does not understand
the Celtic nature and the Irish wants and
situation; it is because she insists that
the ideas of Downing street shall be the
ideas of the Castle. Doubtless the Cas-
tie would have the same ideas if allowed
time in which to come to them. Have
coercion acts in Ireland done anything
but make bad matters worse? No, the
manner in which to cure the evils in Utah
is to enforce the law not occasionally and
with gusto, but to enforce it ever and
always, continuously and increasingly.
And what guaranty have we that Legis-
lative Commission OF thirteen man-chosen
members will do things very differently
from twelve LGod-chosen men? The
trouble in either case is that the people
are ignored, and used as beasts OF bur-
den. We heard one of the most
prominent clergymen of the city, and
one of our most vigorous thinkers, say
within six weeks, that the political evils
which exist here could only be cured by
the people themselves, and that time
must be allowed them while the cure
of Commission would not go to the seat
of disease. In fine, he said that Com
mission would but augment the evils
already here. 1t may be well to say that
the gentleman is not Mormon, lest
the view expressed may be condemned
at once. There is much in this view, and
let it be well pondered

JUDGE ZANE's ruling in the Bruneau
case from Tooele is very much to be re-
gretted, as it shows a fell determination
to tear the Constitution to tatters, and up
hold the laws, even the laws of Utah
Territory. Can he not be impeached for
so doing? At least a petition for his re-
moval should be Immediately circulated,
and no doubt it can be supported p
by the affidavits of influential citizens
What right has Judge Zane to make
such rulings? Does he not know that
large number of our citizens are deeply
interested in the whiskey business? Is
he truly a second Daniel come to Judge
ment, or only carpet-bagger? Let the
Ne1cs reverse this decision at
once, and forbid the people to
think it law It's persecution.

Messing the lighting up of the Music Hall,
When you pass up the middle aisle, you
notice great clusters Of white lilies hang
ing overhead, along the sides are smaller
clusters of gas burners, and above each
red crescent. Just over the music stand
number of gas jets arranged in crescents
are placed The daylight has not yet
faded and as you take your seat you think
it is too quite for concert to begin before
the gas is lighted. The Mexican band
come in, take their places and begin their
beautiful music and you forget everything.
Happening to glance up, you seem to see a
little glow in the lilies just in front of
you and watching it you can see a steady
increase in the light, so gradual as to be
almost imperceptible, unless you are watch
ing. The lilies appear no longer white,
but they are great golden bells, with
tongues of fire, which dazzle you with their
intense brightness; the cresoents are all
on fire, and so gradual has been the change
from daylight to night that it is difficult to
tell when the one ended and the other
began, only the darkened skylights above
convince. one that the light below is artif-
cial, The music ceases the instruments are
laid aside, and the crowd passes reluctantly

Willle's Courage.

"Don't go Mollie, I'm afraid" sobbed
little Willie, as his kind elder sister, one
chilly spring evening having tucked him
up warmly in bed, turned to leave the
room.
Willie the old, old story" exclaimed
his sister, YEARLY coming back. "What
are you afraid of? Night after night you
fear something, and every morning you
wake up fresh and happy, without having
been in the least disturbed, Can't you see
how foolish your conduct is ?"
"But Mollie, when you put out the

"But don't know that it is the ward

"What?" asked his sister shortly.
"Well, it might be a great big robbero
"Nonsense, Willie, no robber comes at
this time of night, when everybody is up
and likely to find him; besides, our house
is too well secured to give him chance to
enter"
"He might get in somehow" said Willie
disconsolately.

Do not neglect to soak butter tubs in
brine before packing down butter in
them.
Sheep ought to be well fed and cared
for now, as the fall is the best time for
wool growing.
Farmers who have used oil barrels

Remember that the hearing of a

One recipe for making walk that

A paragraph going the rounds is to
the effect that hemp is employed in
South Russia as a preventive against
phylloxera. 1t is said that when plant
ed around a vineyard the insects, at
tracted by the odor of the hemp, leave
the vines for the hemp roots, which
are poisonous TO them.
But few farmers know the relative
values of the feeding stuffs they buy,
or the composition of the manure used.
And yet the thoroughly practical far
mer should possess such knowledge, as
much as may be possible, in order to
better enable him to conduct his bust
ness in the most profitable manner and
at the least expense.
/ Ploughs that stand over night in the

/ If plough is laid on its side the beam

longer required, they should be painted
and carefully stored away.
1t does not depend altogether upon
the amount of food eaten by the COW
how much milk OF butter she may
give, but upon her powers of diges-

pay expenses.

The soil taken from the bitches may
be spread upon the adjoining land or
it may be put in heaps, and after being
dried and exposed to the frosts OF one
winter viii be good material for put
ting into the yards. Yet it is doubt
full whether it is better than dry earth
for this purpose, or enough better to
nav for drawing far. What is desired
is to have material to absorb the liquid
manure, but it is not necessary that 1t
should hold all the liquid any longer
than until the valuable salts which it
contains have been taken up. For
this reason the earth may be better
than even the dryest and most absorb
ent peat, Opinions differ as to the
amount of earth which it will pay to
use in the yards and barn cellar but
it is safe to allow at least one load to
each animal, and if much water is al
lowed to run in from outside even
more may be necessary.

After pairing fruit drop it in cold

The smoke spots from a kerosene

Always put a little soda in milk

A coarse willow-ware basket may

Few people know that by setting a

We can hardly get too much sunshine
into our homes or into our lives. Our
highest duty to ourselves, to our chill
dren, and to society requires that we
be as glad, as sunny, as happy as it is
possible for us to be. 1t is not right
that we stay in shadow ourselves, nor
bring shadow into other lives, when
the means to do otherwise lie within
our reach.

The Importance of lime as plant
food, to be supplied by its use as a
fertilizer, may be perceived by the fol-
lowing figures: In Is bushels of oats
there are 9 pounds of lime; in 38 bush
els of barley, Is pounds; in two tons
of clover hay, IS pounds; in 25 tons
of turnlps. 14O pounds; in $50 bushels
of potatoes, 27O pounds. There are
soils which may be found to contain
considerable proportion of lime by an
alysis. but the lime is insOluble and
inert or it is mixed up in combina-
ton with other minerals as with silica,
alumina, ETC., and is therefore not
within the reach Of the roots of plants.
There are also soils that are almost
free from lime in any form. An oc-
casional application of lime in a caus-
tic or soluble condition is therefore
extremely useful, not only to soils that
contain no lime, but also in most
cases even to those commonly called
limestone soils-Nes0 York Times.

SIX Klng. i gNenty.are Months.

Prince Chanh-Mo is the sixth SOW
ereigns of AMMAN in twenty-five months,
King Tu-Duc died on the 18th Of July,
1884, after q reign of over thirty years,
during which time his dislike for the
French had been growing into active
hatred. Though he had the Oriental
profusion of wives, he left no legitimate
sons. Duc-Duc, one of his nephews,
was therefore named King, and his adj
herence to his uncle's policy led TO the
occupation of Hue By the French. Duo.
Due then disappeared, and DIR. Hamand
put HEP Hoa, a brother Of Tu-Duc, on
the throne. Three months later he was
poisoned By the national party.
The French Resident then set up an
other nephew of Tu-Duc. With him
NJ. TricOu concluded the ratification Of
the previous August, in which AMMAN
recognized the French protectorate and
handed over Tong-king to be pacitied
by the republic. In August, last year
the anti-French mandarins killed this
new puppet; and on the 18th OF
the month Ham-Nghi, another
boy, succeeded him. It is he who Is
now in the camp of the insurgent Thu
vet, and with him ended the nephews-
of King Tu-Duc.
Prince Chan-Mong is said to be the
adopted son of that monarch; which
probably means that he is illegitimate
In any case he is, no doubt, as complete
a cypher as is wanted; and he is said to
speak in very satisfactory terms OF hii
attachment to France. So does every
Annamese with whom a Frenchmar
talks. But the country is none tn
nearer pacification for that; and it re
mains to be seen how long the new SOW
ereign, who is to take the ''reigninl
namen of Me-Trieu, will last.

worried with insects. All these things
must be considered in arriving at a
knowledge of the causes which bring
disease and death to our swine.

Making Brown Paner.

The straw paper is made from rye
straw, for which the farmers get about
SIS a ton. The straw is thrown into
a great vat, where it is mixed with
lime, and covered with water. 1t is
there boiled for twenty-four hours by
steam heat, until all. the stiffness is
aiken out Of it. 1t is now thrown in
to a cylinder with wire sides and long
iron teeth projecting on the inside.
This revolves with great rapidity and
throws off most Of the water from the
straw by centrifugal force. The damp
soft straw is then placed in vat and
covered with water. In this vat are
rollers fitted with knives, which cut
the straw into very fine pieces. The
comminuted straw or pulp is then
pumped into a large storage vat, from
which it is run into a trough in which
a wire cylinder revOlves. A suction
pump draws the pulp against the wire.
and it forms a thin coating on it,.
This is carried off by felt betting, and
passes between rollers which squeeze
out the water, and other rollers which
polish it. It is then straw paper. It
is used by butchers in wrapping up
meat.-NeaC York Sun.
