LARGER CROPS NEEDED en-

lands of the Northwest, it is necessary

wheat a. all example. On land worth

crop OF ten bushels per acre Is dead

with the cheap lands and average
small Yields of the Northwest.
We are using enormous quantities
OF commercial manures, composed
principally ofsuperphosphate, potash
salts, and a small quantity of nitrogen
in the form mostly of fish, flesh and
dried blood. The average well-man-
aged farms on which these fertilizers
are used contain all the ingredients
OF plant-food, except nitrogen, to pro
duce large crops per acre. All the
facts of experience and science point
to the necessity Of a more liberal sup
ply of available nitrogen in the soil to
enable it TO produce large crops per
acre.
There is no lack of nitrogen. We
can develop it from the soil, or We can
make more manure on the farm, or
buy stable manure from the cities, or
purchase from the manufacturers of
commercial fertilizers, the nitrogen

The Arab Mare.

She was the most beautiful mare I

gray, with flea bitten spots, eyes too
large for her head, nostril thin and ex-

hair of her name and tail so fine and
soft that the most beautiful woman
might have been proud of such texture,
and her skin 50 thin and soft that the
thorn bushes through which l rode her
used to tear it; and after many of my
runs through the jungle have had her,
bleeding from the thOrns, looking as if
she had been practiced upon with light
sabre. She was what you would con-

inches high; but she was as broad almost
as dray horse, and her tail was set up
so high that as she moved about her
loose box you could, STOPPING, walk be-

black and hard, and the tendons below
her hooks and knees were like harp

SUBMISSION OF WIVES.

Social and Domestic Question OF Con-
siderable Interest and Importance.
How far this submitting unto ones
own husband should be carried, is a
question for consideration. True it is
that wifely submission is not in much
danger of being carried to excess in this
age Of woman's rights; and yet one
sometimes sees an exception in the per-
son of a meek woman, who, partly
through fear, and partly through mis-
taken notion of duty, merges her senti-
ments, her ideas, her very self in her
husband. She loses her own identity,
and becomes simply his echo.
This would be less deplorable than it
is if the husband who thus absorbs her
were always a superior character (for
such women are always weak and would
not amount to much in themselyes).
But sad as it is, these oaks to which
such tender vines cling are not always
the strong supports they should be.
When a man is selfish, tyrannical
and dishonest, so much so that he even
finds himself almost without friends,
must his gentle wife, who is capable of
winning friends by her own lovely
character, renounce every hope Of hap
piness. OF friendship, of the pleasure of
society, by frowning upon ali who dis
agree with him, forsaking all who dis
approve his meanness, and making
strangers feel that she is as bad as him
self? lean not think it right. Its too
much for one soul to require of another!
Too much in the wrong direction. It
is beautiful to see Il wife love and seek
to save her husband, all the more as he
becomes a sinking ship;'' but if she
can not save him, if he viii deliberately
sink, she is not, l believe, REQUIRED To
sink with him to the extent Of wreck
ing her own life. Woman has indi-
viduality of her own, a character Of
her own to maintain just as much as
man. 1t is as valuable to her as her
husband S IS to him; and she is fully as
strong to maintain it. The best of men
admit that only in a physical sense is
she 1.-The weaker SEX but a mournful
exception is the woman who adds the
folly of allowing herself to become the
echo of a hollow, brazen vessel, to the
mistake of having become his wife

Governor in 1884 an additional delegate. and
seventy votes q further additional dele
gate. That there may be no misunderstand-
ing, the Secretary of the Committee has made
up new classification of delegates based
upon this representation. There may be
some errors and omissions in it, as the vote
relied upon was taken from the Year Book,
and in one or two Instances it was found 10 be
incorrect, notably in the record of the vote
of Bradford, Penobscot county, it being given
in the Year Book as IS votes cast for the
Republican candidate for Governor in 1884,
whereas the official record shows l1s Repub
lican votes cast. A town or plantation which
threw only "A votes, is, under this call, only
entitled to one delegate; in order to get n
second delegate it must have thrown 70 votes !;
the fraction of forty votes TO give another

is hoped that if any errors are discovered in
the list, they will be reported to the Secre-
tary, so that nc mistakes may occur.
