Ter Aoms Rule.

Hon. Thomas Wren passed here yes

yer State. He says alone Rule for
Nevada and Nevadans" 10 the watch
word in Western Nevada. The Storey
county members of the Legislature say
they arc not pledged to Stewart or
anybody else for Senator, and as the
platform on which they were elected
pledged them to "Home Rule" they
were morally bound to support bona
hde resident of the State for Senator,
and every member of the Legislature
elected at the recent election must do
likewise, or virtually violate his pledge
and merit the condemnation of every
psrson who believes that party pledges
mean something more than dsceiving
votsrs.
Mr.. Wren expresses himself as be-
ing perfectly satisfied that the "hsms
rule" sentiment will prevail in the
Legislature, 20 that no imported can

silver Csrtinca ties.

Tho Bankers Magazine, in an arti.
Gle on silver certificates, asks, since
these certificates arc authorized, why
not run silver into bars containing ten,
fifty, or hundred dollars worth of
silver, instead Of continuing to coin
the silver dollarsi 1t argues that the
expense of doing this would be less
than tho continued coinage of the dol
lar, which would be just a. useful as
security for the certificates as the dol
lars themselves.
To this the. Silver Dollar, q new
paper published at Cleveland, Ohio,
objects. It says it is opposed to stop
ping the minis and eoiuing the silver
into bars, for if that were done the
"gofd bugs" would at once demand
that the certificates should he issued
ut the gold price of silver bullion in
the London market, which would
strike silver deadly blow and put us
on gold standard. 1t wsuld perpet-
ually dsmonetize silver, rob our silver
miners, plumber our wheat and cotton
producers, and at one fell swoop ac-
complish that which the gold bugs"
have for years been trying to accom-
plish get rid of the silver dollar.
The silver dollar has come to stay
and it will stay where it is at 412x
Rrains-and the great New West and
Seutlf;ars going to demand free and
unlimited coinage of it, just the same
as gold enjoys, for England's little
scheme of demonstrating silver in the
United States is absut over. Don't be
deceived; silver is fast going up to par
with geld, and the silver dollar will
yet hs your vine and fg tree.

ment, and yet there are some general prin'
ciples TO all in reaching decision. Thus,
upon heavy, clayey soils the cultiva-
lion should lie deeper than upon light,
sandy ones. On the former deep cultiva-
ton is necessary because without it soils
will not warm enough, and where cultiva-
ton does not reach the ground will be so
solid that roots will har lily penetrate. Deep
cultivation in such soils is also essential to
proper drainage, and stagnant water in the
soil is always hurtful But in light, sandy
soils deep cultivation, instead Of being bene-
fetal, will be hurtful. For these are liable
to be too dry, and deep cultivation will
break them up until the sun and air will
take away too much Of their moisture. Shall
low cultivation Is better. for it will not
reach the moisture drawn from below by cap
Hilary attraction For the same reason
shallow cultivation is best suited to dry
season, and it should be frequent Per con-
ira, deep cultivation is best in a wet season,
for it will tend to dry the soil. But 1t must
be understood that deep cultivation is meant
to be deeper on heavy soil than on light
one, always And always heavy soil
should be plowed deep, no matter what the
season may be.

FARM zGARDEN
Horse breeding,


Some Of the most remarkable animals in
horse history have come out of obscurity
and hard work. We once knew n beg nner
at farming commence operations with a
little 4-year-old mare, of not over $50
pounds weight and mate; the mate,
though 100 pounds the heaviest, proved in
nowise TO be her equal at the pillow or before
a load. The mare, named by her owner
Queen, usei up, in turn, several horses that
were bought and hooked to the other end Of
the evener'' She raised family Of Queens
male and female, and, in succession. two
different farms were opened up and inn
proved by this mare and her progeny,
Surplus being sold at sundry times for good
prices. Never sick, never with swelled
legs or ailing feet; always ready to
eat and to work. Always wanted by
tell it when they see it. A like history has
occurred on many a farm, and could occur
on many oher farms if Judgment were used
in selecting and managing. In these days
of progress in horse breeding it is not neces-
sary or wise to breed stock of light weights,
for good weights are found conjoined with
good material and select breeding; and en-
terprise is so universal that it permeates
every "hcr anu u" iai iiiei, eACe'O NC oe hie'

living as he goes along, until he has deyel'

EUREKA Birdie.

We hope cur readers will follow careful ly
the directions which are copied from the
book If you do not hit it with them the
first time try again, and keep trying till you
succeed. The directions are these: First,
have a strony cord ne-eighth of an inch in
diameter. Make the end OF it into a Slip
moose and pass it around the horses neck.
PAS the ret of the cord through the mouth
and over the tongue from The Off side. Then
take it back and pull it through the moose on
the near side. Pu the end firmly forward
then take it up over the head just behind the
ears from the near side, take it down along
side the head upon the off side to the mouth,
pass it under the upper lip, above the upper
teeth. from the off side, bring it back upon
the near side. pull it through the cord that
passes around the head, back where the loop
is, pull it firmly, as YOU see in the picture,
and iasten it in a low knot that will not
come untnd.
There You have the horse and he cannot
help himself The cord bride makes him
uncomfortable, without injuring him. When
Gleason gave bis exhibitions in New York he
had simply TO put the Eureka bride upon the
most untamei horse, and in ninety-nne
cases out of a hundred. it would follow him
all aroLnd tie ring like tame kitten. The
reason probably was that it felt i'll at ease
and wanted the thing taken off. To take it
eff pull the bow knot. Try this with some
colt or horse that is hard to catch, and seq
if it will not follow you around the stable
yard Give him his commands in strong,
resoute voice, t / he learns what you mean

RELATION BETwEEN.-The word "labOrer''
is here applied to all persons, of whatever
rank, who are in the employ and subject to
directions of the farmer
The legal relation exists between farmer
and his laborer rests wholly upon contract,
express or implied. The one Is bound to
render service, the other to pay the stipul-
alton price, or the value thereof if no agree.
ment is make as TO price.
But it is essential that the parties have
the legal capacity to contract; otherwise the
contract cannot be enforced. Thus If a
laborer who is under age binds himself for
special term at fixed price, he Is not
bound by his bargain, but may abandon it at
any time before the expiration of the term
and although he cannot recover on his con
tract, he is entitled to what his services
were reasonably worth, without deduction
therefrom of any damages for his breach
of contract.
If no definite period of employment is
agreed upon, there Is hiring at will,-the
farmer having the right to discharge and
the laborer the right to leave ut any time
without cause, but if there be no special
bargain as to the price, the farmer must
pay reasonable value for his services, de.
pendent upon the current rate of wages for
similar service at the time and place of
performance.
In England, if no time is limited eX.
pressly or implicitly for the duration of a
hiring and service, the hiring is considered
for year.
CONTRACT FOR MORE THAN A YEAR
All contracts for personal service made by
the farmer which cannot be performed
within a year, must, by the Statutes OF
Frauds be in writing, in order to be legally
binding Thus where A in January agreed
orally to clear n piece of woodland for r.
and to fence "A part of one end of II, In one
year from the ensuing spring, when A was
to put in a crop, with the wood and timber
except that used for the fences, he was to
have for his compression, and in an action
yainst A for non performance, ii was held
that the contract was within the Statute of
Frauds and void, being an oral contract not
to be performed within year.
If the farmer has made an oral bargain
to employ a laborer for year, and the con
tract cap be completed within that time, II
is binding; but if the performance Of such
contract is TO commence at future day, |,
cannot be enforced. Yet it seems that an
oral contract to hire II labOrer for year, TO
begin the next day, is valid.-Austtn's
