SOMETHING FOR FARMERS.
A NATURAL FERTILIZER.

Soft stone. fragments of slate that
easily decompose, and which are too
small to obstruct the plow or cult
vator, should not be carried off from
land, AS such stone is constantly yield
ing mineral plant food to the soil.
Fine, shelly stones also render a
heavy clayey soil more light and
porous, but large cobble stones had
better be picked up and carried off,
as they are o constant source of an
oyance. There arc soils so full OF
stones that every blowing brings
fresh lot of them to the surface, and
every load carried away reduces the
surface level of the field. If this
process be carried on long enough
the level may be reduced materially.
II it is an object to prevent this, as
where the land is low and wet, it is
an excellent practice to dig bitches
for receiving the stones in body,
then cover over with the soil thrown
out. Some of the most productive
land ever worked has been improved
in this way.
COMPOUND FOR SHEEP MARKING.
Lampblack mixed with strong
vinegar will mark sheep SO that the
name can be read for n year, but
will not iujure the wool, as is often
done when sheep are marked with
tar or paint. The English practice
was to slit or notch the ears, mark
requiring quick eye to detect in a
flock, but which once made lasted a
lifetime. BY changing the places
on the ear, using one or both, and
varying the shape of the cut, great
number of marks can be made to
identify the property Of different
owners.

The Hack Hone Land Grant Again Efforts
being Made to Induce the Secretary 81
enc Interior 10 Issue the Remainder OF
the Patents - The Matter Likely to 60
Hack 10 Congress.
WASHINGTON, ID. c., October l6.-Ar-
guments were made by attorneys repre-
sen,ing the Back Bone Land Grant
before Secretary Lamar. Of the Interior
Department, and Attorney General Gar
land and Assistant Secretary jerks, sit
ting as a board. The Back Bone Land
Grant was q conspiracy to obtain from
the United States Land ONCE tract Of
land upon the Mississippi River which
had been forfeited under It's original
grant. The grant was assigned after the
time had elapsed, and was claimed after
wards BY railroad built upon the oppo-
site side OF the river from which the line
carrying the original grant was run.
This fraud was passed upon BY the Land
Office in the closing hours OF the last ad-
ministration. Secretary Teller helped It
through. and extra haste was
employed In the Land Office TO
ret out the patent for this great
domain. IL was impossible TO complete
II before the Department changed sccrc-
taries. Steps were taken Immediately
to stop the issuing Of patents. Argument
has now been made TO induce the Sccre-
tary TO issue the remainder OF the pat
ents. The decision Of the Department
probably will be this: No action Will be
taken, but the matter will be referred to
Congress. Secretary Lamar Is not dis
posed 10 favor the applicants. Unless
Congress next winter takes some ac-
| lion to set aside the fraud, the Interior
| Department may be compelled to issue
| the patents under all the circumstances.
| The noticeable thing about the case IS
| the fact that the claimants for all this
| land were represented BY mob Of a.
| torneys, while there was no one present
| to act as counsel for the Government ~
presenting counter argument
