Electric Light Fires.

The frequency Of conhagration
caused by electric light wires induced
the Electric Club of Philadelphia to
inquire into the means Of prevent
ing them. At a recent meeting, the
report Of a committee of four months
standing, under the chairmanship of
Mr.. Fl. B. Cutter, was presented. The
various automatic cut-outs proposed
by different inventors were considered,
some utilizing the heating Of wire,
some the action of a spring pulling
against an armature of magnet. The
old arrangement of fusible alloy
cutoff was pronounced Objectionable
on account Of the interruption pro-
duced when it melted, but this was
obviated by an arrangement for
throwing other fusible pieces into the
circuit one after the other. Thus a
momentary increase Of current would
only cause momentary stoppage. 1t
was evident that there is a good field
for inventors here, in dev;sing an eff
cient safeguard against too strong
currents that may accidentally be
thrown upon a wire unable to carry
them without heating. = Scientific

per ton. Another sold for thirty-two
dollars that was found to be worth
only eighteen dollars and ninety-six
cents. Another sold for thirty-five
dollars that was worth only twenty
two dollars. And, as a matter Of fact,
the probabilities are that they are not
worth what the station estimates them
at. The report Of the Connecticut
experiment station says: THE aver
age cost Of the special mauures SAM
pied by the station has been fortv-two
dollars and ffty-twn cents, and the
average valuation thirty five dollars
and twenty cents. The difference,
seven dollars and thirty-two cents,
makes the percentage difference 20.9.
The corresponding difference in case
of the superphosphates was 25.6. This
year, as hitherto, the special manures
as class have been higher priced but
more concentrated than the other III
trogenous superphosphates. and if tbs.
quality of the raw mater ials conipos-
ing them is equally good, they have
been the more economical to pur-
chase"
There is no possibility of the ingre-
dients being in any better condition
than the station assumes them to be-;
while there is great probability that
many of them will contain matter
that will "anaylize well" but which
isIof paratively little immediate
value when applied to crops 1t seems
clear from the above quotation that
the station makes no effort to accu-
rately determine the quality Of the
raw material" The organic nitrogen
in the special manures and in the am
moniated superphosphates is estimated
at seventeen and half cents pei
pound This n.ay be its trad" val
ne, but we doubt very much If the
able directors of the stations would
like to pay this price for it while they
could buy nitric-nitrogen at sixteen
cents per pound. The Connecticut
station analyzed sixty-six different
brands of nitrogenous superphosphates
and guanoes last year, and estimated
the nitrogen at seventeen and a hall
cents per pound And even at this
high estimate. the average value
was only twenty eight dollars and
forty-fve cents per ton, while the av.
erage selling price was thirty-five
dollars and seyenty-four cents pei
ton.

FARM AND HOUSEHOLD E!
[American Agriculturist.1
Supplementing Pastures.

Supplementing Pastures.
The best way of supplementing the
pastures in midsummer is to supple
ment them in June. Take the ami
mails off the pasture for few days and
feed them with grass and clover cut
along fence rows and on the unoccu-
pied spots which exist on nearly every
farm. If this feed is carefully util-
lied, the cattle may be kept off the
pastures three days in early June and
three days toward the close of the
month. And this will bring a gain
of ten days grazing in July.
There is scarcely any feed better
for farm animals, especially growing
stock, than green oats, and it is GER
tainly better to cut few acres of the
oats to support the animals while the
pastures are being given relief, than
to reserve the oats for winter lf cut
while green, after the grain is formed
but while it is yet in the milky state,
the straw makes excellent feed-much
better than after it is ripened, thresh-
ed, and saved as it commonly is. The
necessity for feeding oats or green
corn can be avoided easily by sowing
green fodder crops. For this purpose
we prefer sweet corn, and second, or
dinary field corn. Corn sowed on
well-prepared land the last of MAY or
first of June, can be fed early in July.
But it is better to have enough to feed
after the ears have formed.
Rye is another good crop for sup
plementing the pastures. 1t may be
sown as late as the first Of June. Of
course it is better to SOW it earlier, and
yet better to SOW it IN the early fall /;
pasture it as opportunity offers during
the winter and in the spring till quite
late, then allow it to grow till the
grain is formed, and cut it for green
feed.
Turnips may be sown on the ground
occupied by early potatoes. Remove
the potatoes as soon as they have
ripened, harrow the ground, which is
all the preparation it needs, and sow
the seed after, not before, rain. The
turnips will not be ready to use until
late, yet they are available at time
usually of need, and an acre Of tur-
nips furnishes large amount of good
feed. The same is true of pumpkins.
If planted early on good ground, they
will be ready to use by the time the
pastures have dried out, and will be
very agreeable to every farm animal.
They are also splendid medicine, espe-
cially for swine. Being gently laxa-
tive, they are just what is needed when
the change is made from green to dry
feed. Yet other crops may be grown
and other forage saved by little fore
thought which otherwise would be
wasted. Almost every day Of the
summer it is possible to save some
palatable feed for the animals, which
is often wasted simply because at the
time the pasture is abundant. But
we must not wait until the pasture
fails. The more we supplement it
through the spring and summer, the
the longer it will last at the latter end
of the season.

VALUE OF FERTILIZERS.
BY JOSEPH HARRIS.

A correspondent who desires to
have his name not mentioned writes
us: "The experiment stations of Con-
necticut, New Jersey, and Massachu-
setts last year estimated the value of
nitrogen in sulphate Of ammonia at
seventeen and half cents per pound
in nitrate of soda sixteen cents per
pound. From some articles that have
appeared in the American Agricultu-
rist, | had supposed that the nitrogen
in nitrate of soda was more valuable
than in sulphate of ammonia" etc.
Yes. But we were talking about
the fertilizing value Of the nitrogen,
and the experiment stations are talk
ing about the 'trade" value. We
think nitric-nitrogen is more valuable
than organic-nitrogen or ammonia
nitrogen because organic-nitrogen and
ammonia-nitrogen must be converted
into nitrates before it can be appro-
priated by the plan ts-in other words,
it is more imm' dlatciy available. The
experiment. stations doubtless recog-
nize this fact; but they act on the
general fact that ID thing is worth
what it will fetch" Last year, nitro
gen in the form of nitrate of sod,
could be obtained at sixteen cents per
pound, while it could not be bought
in the form Of sulphate of ammonia
for less than seventeen and a half
cents. And this is the reason why
the experiment stations estimate nitro
gen in their forms at these figures
The fac is, however, that nitrate of
soda is rarely if ever found in our
commercial fertilizers, and compara-
lively little sui ulphate of ammonia.
The manufacturers can buy nitrogen
in cheaper but less soluble forms. aud
they are not slow to avail themselves
1f it.
From the last report of the Con-
lecticut experiment station it would
seem that the estimates OF. the value
If commercial fertilizers are very lib
,ral to the manufacturers They are
credited with seve nteen and a half
,ents per pound for nitrogen; eight
,ents per pound for soluble phosphor-
C acid; seven and a half cents per
pound for reverted" phosphoric acid;
even cents per pound for phosphoric
cid in fine bone, tankage. and dry
,round fish, and four and a quarter to
i've and half cents per pound for
'otash. Liberal as are these figures,
he country is flooded with CONNER
ial fertilizers that are sold at much
igher rates. On the average, the
nanures cost about twenty-five
er cent more than they are worth.
n one instance a nitrogenous super
hosphate was sold for thirty-eight
ollars per ton that was worth only
ighteen dollars and ninety three cents

The Congressional Committee Still TAX.
ing Testimony at HazIeton-How Miners
are BIed.
HAzLEToN, Pa, Feb. 24.-The congress
sional committee inquiry was resumed
this morning. The first witness was
Thomas Campbell, of Freeland. His evil
dence related to company store
charges for general merchandise. He
stated that the company's store prices
were $50 per cent. higher than
those cash stores in 1880. Investiga-
ton showed them in 1887 to be from
90 to IS per cent. higher; later on he
was unable to give a positive rate of
prices. He was followed by Thos. A.
Buckley, of Freeland, who stated that he
had followed the occupation of mining
all his life. He thought the corporations
could pay better wages. The average
pay had dropped since 1881 to the present
time from 1891 per day to about $50 per
month, or about one half, while mine
supplies had been reduced less than one
third. After de failing the mode of taxing
the mine workers and coal lands he was
dismissed and the committee placed "A.
Pardee, ST.. of the firm of A. Pardee &
Co., on the stand. He believed the strike
to have been caused by agitators who had
led the men astray. He had always
listened to any grievance presen ted to
him by his own workmen, but would not
pay any attention to the leaders of
organized labor.
