siderable task even to enumerate them. Though
this House has passed larger num-
Der of bills than any of its predecessors,
1t is not strange, gentlemen, in view Of the fact
just mentioned, that it should be compelled to
leave unfinished large percentage of the meas
ures presented 1t is evident that unless some
constitutional or legal provision can be adopted
which will relieve Congress from consideration
OF all, or at least a large part of the local and
private measures which now occupy the time of
the committees and fill the calendars of the two
houses. the percentage of business left undis-
posed of at each adjournment must continue to
increase. 1t is not reasonable to suppose that
alteration of the Constitution could be effected,
but it is worthy of serious consideration whether
a general law might not be enacted which would
authorize the executive departments and the
courts of justice to hear and determine these
matters, under such rules and regulations, of
course, as would amply protect the interest
OF the government and secure to the
citizens, doubtless, a more expeditions and APP
propriate remedy than is now offered. In con-

est to buy them for almost any crop he

from other fertilizers, the second, and
ffcc four OF five following years the bene-
fit on many soils is great. The doubt
about the quality has deferred many
from buying ashes in large quantities.
While there are some ashes analyzed
worth from thirty five to forty cents a
bushel, there are others that will not ana
lyze worth more than half as much. If
some way could be devised by which
the price could be fixed to correspond
with the quality, to a positive certainty,
the farmer would feel that he was get
ting his moneys worth; but as long as
he has to buy, as he now does, he will
be very likely to think he is being

Honey comes from the idle flowers;

We must be silent and gladly learn.

Housekeeper's Literature.

Since the Observer commenced the
publication of a special Household De-
partment other journals have given
more attention than ever to such mat
tiers, and new journals have appeared
which are entirely devoted thereto.
One of these ventures is called good
housekeeping, and so far as it's first
numbers concerned it points the way
to that desideratum. Ofcourse it takes
i'll the kitchen. The kitchen is the hub
of the balance wheel in the domestic
machinery, From an article entitled
''Home Amusement and Relaxation
the following paragraph is taken:
We know one house where large
and airy chambers exclusively devoted
to the use of a boy of eleven and a Girl
Of nine. The printing-pre is side by
side with the dolls bed and tea sets,
and the workbench and work basket
are friendly neighbors. Willie's press
is always at Ada's service for printing
invitations orvisiting cards, and Ada's
needle and thread often help Willie in
many an emergency when glue-pot AND
nails fail to serve the purpose. When
papa goes to distant manufactures on
business, nothing he can bring back for
presents are priced more than box of
sticks and woods of various kinds and
Shapes, OF a package of papers and
cards for the printing-press or dolls
wardrobe. This is not mentioned
as a rare case, as probably such schools
ofmanual education are to be found by
scores and hundreds, and still they are
an exception rather than the rule in
our families, when they might be as
easily secured as in the case quoted.
If, instead of buying multitudes of
dolls ready dressed and throwing them
into the nursery to be forgotten, the
mothers should furnish the material
encourage the girls in neatly making
the clothes for the dolls and their beds;
if, when the dolls have tea-party, the
mother would give instructions in
properly laying the table and preparing
the table linen, every such experience
would be a lesson in kitchen-gartning,
an excellent substitute for actual
practice in the nursery and dining
room, and of great future value to the
children and of present pleasure and
relaxation to the mother.

Wood Ashes as a Fertilizer.

There are few if any fertilizers in the
market that possess so many desirable
qualities as good wood ashes; being
rich in potash, and having a fair pro-
portion of phosphoric acid, they supply
two Important materials that are def
cient in most soils. But there are other
important elements that are not only
beneficial, but important for plant
growth. Wood ashes contain large
quantities Of lime; not stone lime but
lime that is finer and more soluble; it
haying once been in a condition to enter
plants, it again readily comes into a
condition to be taken up by growing
plants, much more so than the common
stone lime. Ashes contain two other
important elements, namely, magnesia
and silica; these are both necessary for
plant growth, and, like the lime, they
are in the right condition to be readily
taken up by. the growing plants In
fact, wood ashes being the mineral ele-
ments OF vegetation, they contain all Of
the mineral elements for the growth of
other vegetation, and that, too, in the
best possible condition, because having
once been taken up by growing vegeta-
ton, they have been divided into small
particles and made soluble in water,
and they readily return to the same con-
dition again. This is an important fact
that is generally overlooked. A fertili-
