As is well known, pigs have small

but stop their food and give their

TRIMMING an apple tree does not
mean that one must go into the orchard
and hack away with AK and saw simply
TO cut away a certain proportion Of
wood, but the trees should be evenly
trimmed, and no Limits removed except
such as may benefit the tree 10y being
cut off. Where limb has commenced
TO decay it should be removed, however,
as it may be caused by disease. Es
pecially is this necessary with TeaI
trees, which are subject TO blight.

FARM NOTES.

THE CARE OF HAY.-Barns or
barracks are much better for the
preservation of hay than the circular
stacks, even though the last be welt
built Hay contains, in the dry as
well as in the green state, matter that
is soluble in water. For this reason all
exposed hay on the exterior OF stacks
Is subject 10 having the soluble matter
washed from il. In round stacks the
amount OF hay thus exposed is much
larger than is usually supposed The
best place for storing of well-cured hay
for use Is in good, well-sheltered NOV,
where it should be tramped as put in
and packed closely. Thus il will all
keep in uniform condition Next to
a tight NOW an old-faShioned barrack
with a well-thatched roof, arranged so
as to slide up and down the four corner
posts, Is the better. II hay has not
been well cured in the field, ventilation
should be permitted in the NOW.
ROoT crops on the farm are essential
to variety of food not only for the
stock, but for the table as well. For
the growth of turnips the land should
be well plowei in the fall: il may-then
lie untouched until after spring seeding
is over, In spring. II should then
be well narrowed and again plowed-
IL the soil is naturally mellow, enc
blowing in the spring may do, but 1t
must be thoroughly pulyerlzed TO the
proper depth. After the last barrow
ing, II should be rolled and allowed 20
lie for a few days before sowing. Barn.
yard manure may either be put on and
plowed in, in the fall, or spread on the
ground during the winter, or immedi-
ttely after the first plowing in the
spring. Manuring in the drill is a
very good plan 10 insure heavy crop,
but it entails considerable extra work,
while the soil is apt TO get too dry for
he seed.

THE UNION PACIFIC BIZ.

~ Wv ACLFLC DLILL.
Senseless opposition to the Cultivate
bill can accomplish no good and is doing
much harm by delaying railway improve.
ments in the states and territories beyond
the Missouri. No special reason has been
given why the bill should not pass, says
the Denver Neios. 1t was carefully ex-
amined by the house committee on rail-
roads, and was recommended by the
president as fair to the government.
Against this testimony in its favor stands
a vague opposition to railroads in general,
whether well or i'll managed. and a belief
that because the present officials of the
Union Pacific are favorable. 10 the bill, the
enemies oil Jay Gould, who is not in con-
troll of the Union Pacific, should rally to
oppose it.
The real question is, or ought to be,
says the New York Times, whether the
plan of settlement. however favorable to
the company it may be considered to be,
is really the best for the government. 1T
is generally admitted thatthe government
debt canhot be paid at maturity, and it is
certainly not desirable that when the
bonds mature the government shall fore
close its lien. 1t would either have to
take the subsidized portions of the line
subject to all its burdens and complica-
tons or submit to the results of a sale
which would probably yield to it only a
small portion Of the debt. 1t would be
far better to enter into an arrangement
which would bid fair to return ultimately
all the money due to the government and
enable the company to maintain possess
ION of the property. The question should
be considered purely with reference to the
financial interests of the government"

are sent over this line TO the end of the
track, whence they are driven across the
country to their destination. If the road
we're built to the iron and copper deposits
it would stimulate the mining of the ore
and thus increase its traffic. If it were
extended to Douglas it would save that
much more of driving to the cattlemen.
eff it were extended to Douglas it
would share with the Chicago & North
western the business of carrying Central
Wyoming cattle to market. The North
western road has a monopoly of that
business now, except with respect to
cattle that range in the west-central part
of the territory. 1t is. of course, a valu-
able traffic, ard in addition to it Douglas
furnishes a considerable traffic in articles
of merchandise.
The Union Pacific people seem 10 i'm
agine that they can do no construction
work until congress passes a bill enab-
ling them to contract certain indebted
ness for the purpose of building branch
lines. But one would think that the
company could scrape together enough
money gu. of it's earnings to build forty or
fifty miles of road that would be as valua-
BILE to it as the suggested extensions in
Wyoming.
1.-The extension of the Cheyenne &
Northern to Douglas would stimulate the
growth of that town very much, and it
would help to increase the trade between
Denver and the Central Wyoming coun-
try"
The Republican doesn't say SO, but it
is a fact Just the same that the extension
Of the Cheyenne & Northern would be of
material advantage to this city also.

4 KINDLY HINT Z

Under the new lion and the lamb regime
it was to be expected that that throbbing
center of intellectually, the EUeaing
Bladder, should come to the rescue Of its
political ally the Sun. OF course the
toggle-iointed little thing can't do much,
for nature has treated it with lopsided
favor, but it does its best and a beast of
burthen under like circumstances couldn't
do any more. 1t appeared last evening
with its usual little yawp-a 2x4 incoher-
ent yawp such as a man of the world joy
fully pounces upon in the columns of the
bucolic press.
And what's the matter with that bril-
liant literator, Mr.. Single, the Journals
tic cheUdlier dtndustrie7 He's bowling
again that the type in which THE LEADER
sets its official advertising is too large.
He pities the poor taxpayer, though why
he rushey SO frantically to the rescue is
not at first very obvious, for the few dol
lars assessed against his own newspaper
outfit went into the delinquent list.
During the past month the capitol
commission advertised for proposals in
both THE LEADER and the Bladder. Pre-
cisely the same copy, word for word, was
furnished both papers. The Bladder set
the advertisement in BREWER type. which
1t claims is the official size; THE LEADER
used bourgeois, such as the present arti-
Gle is set in. which the Doodle organ
claims is 50 large that the county is con-
stantly defrauded by its use. In the
Bladder the advertisement occupied AZ
lines; in THE LEADER A lines. In the
Bladder it measured a triAe over 5!
inches; in THE LEADER st inches.
Does the Bladder man take his pab-
ulum with a spoon or does it require a
pile driver to beat an idea into his head2
Is he wilfully dishonest or should he be
forgiven because he doesn't know any
better2 Our own theory is that the man
is not well. The narrowing cares of the
editorial tripod, the safe delivery of mas
siVe thoughts that must shake his intellect
to the very foundation, combined with
the muscular exertion in manipulating the
overworked shears, would debilitate
a constitution Injured to the
most exact:ng toll. They do say it's a
sight when Shingle sets his thinker ago.

WHILE the San is endeavoring to put
such a good face on the Republican out
look, this little paragraph from its own
editorial page sounds rather oddly:
Judge Gresham will remain in Europe
during the vacation of his court. He
does not expect to take part in the cam
paign, and is reported to have expressed
doubts about Harrison's being able to
carry Indiana.
Judge Gresham thoroughly deserves
the reputation which he has ecquired for
farsighted shrewdness.

When first the Japanese learned from
the Chinese the use Of letters they, with
characteristic ingenuity, adopted con
tracted forms of ,forty-seven Chinese
characters to represent the syllables Of
their language, and at the same time with
curious unwisdom adopted cursive forms
of other characters to represent the same
sounds But. further, tomake confusion
worse COMPOUNDED, they paid their instruc-
tors the compliment of taking over bodily
their writing and their literature. There
are thus three ways of writing Japanese
(one) with the forty-seven contracted
Chinese or Katagana characters; (two)
with the cursive forms of other Chinese
or Hiragana characters; and (three) with
the Chinese characters pure and simple.
Every school boy has to learn these three
systems, and his studies are complicated
by the fact that while the first two sys-
TENS are phonetic the third is mainly
Geographic.
But we have not yet reached the end of
the difficulties which surround Japanese
writing. For although, as has just been
said, the Chinese characters are mainly
used geographically, they may at the dis,
erection of the writer be made to represent
either the mere sounds of the Chinese
words which they signify or the mere
sounds of the japanese words which they
signify. Togive an example-the Chinese
character meaning heaven" and pro
bounced T'ien, when occurring in Japanese
text may either be read according to an
old Chinese pronunciation, Ten, 'heaven,"
or as the Japanese word for the same
meaning, Anne, or as simply representing
the sounds of Ten or Anne, apart from
their meaning. This is much as If our
letters consisted of signs such, for In
stance, as &, which. let us suppose, might
either be read "and" or "'et," or as the
sy1lables land" or set" and SO be used In
such combinations as h&, hand, or &iam,
