70 be Investigated,

LONDON, July 12-In the House of
Commons this afternoon Mr. Parnell
asked the government to grant q select
committee of the House of Commons TO
investigate the charges made against
him by the Times. w. H. Smith. FIRST
lord Of the treasury, replied that the
government maintained the opinion
that tribunal such as Mr.. parneIl pro-
posed would be incompetent to deal
with the question he raised, out he said
the government was willing to pass an
act to appoint q commission wholly Con-
sisting Of judges fully empowered to Ia
quire into the allegations and changes
made against certain members OF k'ar--
lament by the Times. Mr.. ParEell
then asked if Mr.. Smith intended to
place on the paper the terms Of the
motion he proposed. Mr.. Smith re-
Dlied that if Parnell accepted the office
he would put on the paper notice FOR
such a motion, asking leave Of the
house to bring in such bill. MI.
Gladstone said that it was desirable for
Mr. Smith to,do this in order that the
house might see the exact terms Of the
motion. Mr.. Smith said: 'sIt will be
done"
Mr.. Parnell accepts the governments
proposal for the appointment Of a COM
mission, but objects to the rigid condi
tions as to the pledge and the scope Of
the inquiry. He says he welcomes an
tribunal, but objects to
Sir James Stephens, who, it is rumored.
will be one of the judges.
AT to nights session Mr.. BaLfour
comm enced to propose for the present
session of Parliament q measure to pre-
vent the system Of land purchase under
the Ashbourne act from lapsiDg, when
Mr.. Gladstone rose to say that w. II.
Smith stated On Tuesday last that the
only new measure the government
would introdue in the present session
would be for creation Of a minister of
agriculture, and that another bill ex-
tending the Ashbourne act would lead
to a long and protracted session Of Par
lament. Mr.. Smith replied that abill
Of one clause could be proposed for the
amendment of the act, and that since
the fund was almost exhausted, the
government must ask the assistance
Of Parliament. He did not regard the
as Of any great Importance.
Mr. Gladstone replied that the proposal
opened anew the most important chap
Ter in public affairs, and that the en-
lire scope Of twas q subyers1on Of the
governments promises. The opposi-
lion would therefore reconsider itsEen-.;5
tire position. .s.ssg

FARM AND GARDEN.
Ounce Culture.

Failure IN ounce culture is mainly
attributable to two causes-lack of nour-
ishm, mt and inattention to borers. The
ounce is an Unsuitable feeder, and an an
nual application of manure, salt and
wood ashes over the surface soil will in
crease the size of the fruit and greatly
enhance its value. Whether or not the
fruit when especially vigorous outgrows
the work of the codIin-moth is diff
cult question to answer, but the fact is,
trees under such favorable conditions
will almost surely bear perfect speci-
mems, even when others near by are
badly affected and the fruit misshapen
and poor. Borers surely prefer the
ounce to all other trees as a home for
offspring, or why do we notice so many
more of these pests in their roots? The
simple method of searching for them at
least once every summer is an efficacious
mode of saving the trees. The little
mass of reddish sawdust indicates their
presence, where sharp-polnted knife
will trace them out.-Nca0 York Tribune.

For Having Time.

Hay will keep better in the mows
without salt
If hay is put in too green, bed it down
hard and solid to keep the air out.
A good haytedder will often pay for
itself in a short time by enabling the
farmer to make his hay in one days
handling, instead of punching it up at
night and opening it again next day,
with the risk of an additional two hours
exposure.
Handle clover as little as possible. It
cures best in the cock. A good way is
to cut in the afternoon of one day, let
it lie and wilt till the afternoon of the
next, then cock up, doubling the cocks
each day till cured
Hay cut in bloom is preferable for
lambs, calves and colts. That cut later,
though less palatabIe, is, because of in
creased weight, of greater value as food
for older stock.
p A soaking rain or two on hay, and the
subsequent dryings, will leave but little
less than indigestible, woody fibre,
about as nutritious as so much fence rail
or sawdust.-Nea0 York Herald.
