THAT the Bowker Fertilizer Company,
whose advertisement appears on the second
page has fulfilled its promises 10 the agri-
cultural public and supplied it with rich
and reliable fertilizers, is shown by the fact
that in 1873 its total sales were 125 tons,
while in 1888 the sales aggregated 24,S76
tons and in 1884 the total reached was 81 ,971
tons. The Stockbridge manures seem to
maintain their former popularity, and the
system of plant feeding seems to have been
an important factor in popularizing the
subject of fertilizers and the chemistry Of
fertilization. In the catalogue for 1885 we
find Professor Stockbridge's system tersely
stated as follows "To feed plants those
elements found by analysis to enter into
their composition, and which they do not
obtain from the soil or air in sufficient guam
tity; TO feed the plant rather than the soil,
and in the feeding of the plant to select
those forms of plant food which experience
has shown are best adapted to produce per-
feet growth" Every farmer who is inter-
ested in progressive agriculture should
make application to the Bowker Fertilizer
Company, 43 Chatham street, Boston, Mass,
for their free descriptive circulars.

item he did only what he is habitually al
lowed to do, is paid for doing, and he has
been made sort of vicarious sufferer for the
party of chief responsibility. But physical
violence or legal prosecution is not the rem
edy for the evil. The vehicle by which these
nauseating and demoralizing publications
are conveyed to the people derives its motive
power from the support, encouragement and
countenance it receives from respectable peo-
pie, who are loudest and most effusive in lip
condemnation of the very offences to which
they themselves are contributing. When
their aid and comfort is withheld, there will
be less cause to mourn and fewer occasions
for bludgeons, fisticuffs and libel suits to
avenge personal injuries inflicted by the
Argus and Patriot.

Professor Frederick widows, the Bell
Ringer of the metropolitan Meth
odist Church-An Interesting In
teryiew on Bells-A Chime
Keyboard, Etc.

WASHINGTON, July 17.-Professor Frederick
Widows, the carollinneur of the New Or
leans Exposition, and the finest chime
ringer in the United States, has returned
from the Crescent City to his home in this
city, where he has been located for a decade
or more. He has been in charge of the Me-
tropolitan Methodist Church, over which
Parson Newman used to preside during the
term of President Grant. During the Pro-
fessor's absence at New Orleans the Metro
politan chime, the only one in the city, has
been silent Professor Widows has been in
charge of this chime ever since it was erected
through the efforts of Mrs. Newman, who,
by her own exertions, raised the 81 800 nee
essary to purchase this chime and have it
placed in the tower of the Metropolitan
Church, very large and costly structure
erected by the Methodists of the country for
the benefit of the Capital City.

home, 81 am glad t. get back to Wash

"About as much so as to learn a piano or
any instrument of this sort You see the
tongue or clapper of each bell is connected
by a wire with lever. These levers, as many
as there are bells are set in frame or form,
thus, a sort of keyboard, the handle of each
lever being key. Blythe use of them was
able to produce piano effect. or its reverse,
when desired. There is a music rack above
the levers, on which TIE player places his
written music, and, standing before these
levers, he plays upon them much ashe would
upon piano. except that it is much harder
work, for each lever must be seized with the
hand and given a vigorous jerk, instead of
simple touch with the tip of the
finger, as on a piano. 1t is no child's
play, / can tell you. even for an experienced
manipulation of the levers. To do ii success
fully one must pull off his coat and put in
plenty of physical cxertion. 1t was no UNI
common thing after long and difficult pro-
gramme at New Orleans, to find myself ut
terly exhausted, my clothing saturated with
Precipitation, and the floor in front of the
levers plentifully besprinkled with the drops
which had fallen from my face and hands.
The players room is usually close little box
away up in the tower, hot and little ventilat-
ed, and the people who listen and admire
the music of the bells have little idea how
the player is working and sweating for their
amusement.

what is the cost of a good chime of
bells?
'That is pretty hard to say. The cost de-
ponds largely upon the current price of the
material from which they are made. Some
times it is higher thar at others. A good
chime, such as L had at New Orleans, costs
something like $1,000 now. OF course it costs
something to put them in place after this.
