The Ashland Press says: Estate
papers are just awakening to the fact
that the state board of immigration is
more ornamental than useful, being
composed of land spectators and rail-
way employees. Over year ago the
Press dubbed the state board "a poor,
weak sister," and advised its abolish
ment and the organization of local
boards throughout northern Wisconsin,
the only portion of the state that really
needs immigrants, and OF such only
those who will till the soil. One of the
first things done by the legislature this
coming winter ought to be the extinc-
ton of the present board" All right;
but let the legislature see that the local
boards are paid entirely by the localities
they are supposed to benefit.

Last Thursday Congressman La Fol-
lette made speech on the oleomar-
garine bill, in which he made the point
that Congress always exercised taxing
powers under the general welfare clause
of the constitution, and to tax articles
prejudicial to good health and morals.
The opponents of the oleomargarine
bill had cornered Long. of Massachu-
sets, and other Republicans by making
them admit that this bill could pass
only as revenue measure and that we
were not in need of increased revenue.
Mr.. La Toilette made an excellent argu-
ment which drew about him half the
house. At the expiration OF his time
Randolph Tucker took the floor and
gave La Toilette his time. The bill
passed by far larger vote than was
expected.

Farm Notes.

A look into Brown & Hilton'S
stable n. Anson, we saw SIX fine
looking cows which supply the
Somerset Hotel with the pro
duets of the dairy. But what
attracted our attention more
particularly was two bouncing
calves four and onehalf months
old, and girting 4 feet and Z inches.
This nice looking stock is cared for
by Mr.. George White, the faithful
porter at the Somerset, who knows
lust how to make the stock come
out in first class condition i'll the
spring.
A goose farm is said to be one of
the interesting sights in Western
Virginia. at has an area OF about
5000 acres, and is well supplied
with water. About 5000 geese of
every variety are kept there and
fattened for the markets III the
north. The geese have herders,
and are managed and cared for like
so many cattle, Big dividends are
realized annually by the owners of
the faIm.'
The C0nnecticM Farmer has this
for the creameries that are beng
established in that State:
"We welcome the establishment
of every new creamery i'll Connect
cut, because IA creamery when well
managed will do better for the av-
erage farmer than he can do for
himself, and the farmers wife, es-
pecially, is relieved Of some of the
burdens of which she often has
more than enough"
The Somerset reporter., 1886-05-26
II Cannot be over-Done.

1t is IA hard matter to correctly
estimate the amount OF poultry III
the United States or the average
annual consumption OF eggs or
chickens. Some years low prices
prevail, but the period of low prices
is gradually getting shorter each
year, and higher prices are reached
in winter now than were III former
wears, which shows that the price
of poultry products is steadily tend
inw upwards and there is absolutly
no ddnger of having the business
over-done.
1t is Il product that cannot be
'conered' Farmers in general, and
nearly everybody that has room III
their yard, have II flock of chickens
Farmers are increasing their stock
and are beginning to realize tha'
lhere is considerable profit i'll poul
try when properly managed. l heS
are also adding to their convenlen
ces for keeping fowls, since they
have discovered tllaU tnerc lS iilu'i
greater return for the money invest
ed in them than in any other KIND
of farm stock.
Good, fat, well rounded chickens
ducks, geese or turkeys will always
find ready buyers The market
cannot he overloaded and prices
run down to any great extent, foI
as soon as prices begin to decllhe'
