PROHIBETEON.

The people of New Hampshire have not yet got over their surprise at the defeat of the proposed prohibition amendment, by an ad- verse majority of about five thousand votes. No one on either side had expected such a result. To carry the amendment a two-thirds vote would have been necessary, and this vote some of the more sanguine prohibition ists fully expected to get. The opponents of the amendment generally expected that a majority of the voters, but not two-thirds, would favor it.
 This disposes of the matter in New Hamp- shire for some time. The State of Massachu- setts is soon to take vote on similar amendment, and although the prohibitionists are making big fight the indications now are that they will be beaten. In Rhode Is- land, where prohibition has had trial, they are getting ready to resubmit the matter to the people. It has taken less than three years to convince reasoning men in Rhode Island that the cause of temperance is not advanced by prohibition, while the material prosperity of State can be seriously retarded by it. The open barrooms have been driven out of Providence and the larger cities, but the liquor traffic still fourishes and has never ceased to flourish. It is carried on now in clubs and tenement houses, where it exerts a more baneful influence than it did in the licensed barroons, and where more people are brought within the range of it's evil ten- dencies. The hotels sell no intoxicating liquors openly, but guests and their friends can get all the whisky or other liquor they may choose to order in their own rooms. It is fact we'll known to every observsnt and unprejudiced person in Rhode Island that the consumption of intoxicating drinks has increased in that State very greatly within the last three years. Meantime the treasury of the State has run low, the revenue derived from licenses before this prohibition amend ment was adopted being sadly missed in the little commonwealth. Last year the deficiency directly attributable to this loss exceeded $100,000.
 With prohibition more or less failure in Maine it does not make a very magnificent showing in New England. There are few places on the face of the earth where it

 tuition for boys provided for by the generous city. The endowment fund for the girls school is $1, ,500, ,000, which is $750, GOO less than that provided for the boys institution, but it is not likely that the girls school will ever lack funds while Banker Drexel is alive. The purpose of the founder of this latest inc stitution is to enable young girls to secure free, practical instruction of kind that will enable them to earn their own living in more profitable lines than as shopgirls and seam- stresses Housekeeping, bookkeeping, music, designing, engraving and numerous other things will be taught, and no tuition will be charged to those who choose to avail them selves of the privileges afforded by the school, while other necessary expenses will be merely nominal.
 The report of the Massachusetts civil ser- vice commissioners, just issued, covers the work of the commission from December |, 1887 to December 1, 1888. During this pe- riod there was little change in the number of public officers and employees in the clas- sifed service. The total number is about COCO, with the annual compensation esti-
 
 mated at about $4, 5O0,000. During the year 172 examinations were held in the various cities, of which seventy-fve were competi- tive and ninetysseven non-competitive; twen- ty were for the service of the Commonwealth, seventy-nine for Boston and seventy-three for other cities. The whole numb Der exam ined was 1,505, of whom 1,014 passed. Of these ], 1,oO8 had received common school education or it's equivalent and six were col lege graduates. The commissioners recom- mend some legislation defining more ex- pressly the exact preference intended to be given to veteran soldiers and sailors under the civil service act, attempts having failed to secure decision from the Supreme court. They also suggest that the tenure of all po- lice officers in all the cities of the Common wealth shall be during good behavior. The civil service rules have done much to secure continuity of service by removing the temp- tation to make changes for political or per sonal reasons.

New Blood in Poultry.

Geer. of Tennessee, says that new
blood in poultry is the basis of beauty,
s Dio and prolifcness. 1t is more essential
- snccessful poultry culture than all else
so,,bined. Fowls that are inbred, that
Lova been bred in line several years with
~ tine addition or infusion of fresh blood
~, other strains of the same variety, but
- ybich they are not di ectly related, be-
10 inactive, diminutive and unprofita-
bic.
Il has been said that inbred fowls breed
,-,,a to feather, and that for ibis reason,
because they all come alike and are there
fore best suited to exhibition, inbreeding is
a.sirsble. and this is true to very great
o,+ent for we have tried it. They do
.or,e alike in more respects than one.
THEW breed true to feather, it is tue, but
.bev also have the same mac i've, stupid aud
,rattractive appearance. Their very life
saorns to have been dulled. They are slow to
6svalop in form and muscle, and they are
slow to lay.
While inbred fowls may be suitable for
ambition purposes, they are certainly I'M
profitable. and for this reason, with the per-
son who is k eping poultry for profit, they
should have no part or lot.
Far more desirable is the fowl that, by its
very appearance, its every move and action,
msnifests the fresh, new blood that it en-
bodies. There is an activity, grace ald vigor
ABOUT it that is refreshing.
The male bird that comes of fresh blood is
the one that is ever on the ale to make
himself attractive and agreeable to his
mates. Every choice bit of food that he
finds he saves for them, and he calls them
about him with gallantry that Is admira-
ble He leads them to the nest over which
he crows with a satisfactory crow, that
seems to manifest knowledge of its value
in the poultry world.
A male bird Of this kind crows from the
top Of the fence with a hAp of the wings
that always gives notice of the bugle call
that is to follow.
Equal to the male bird of fresh blood, is
She is keen and active, healthy and vigor-
Gus. ard one of the best layers of her kind.
In truth, in no way does new blood mani
fest itself more strongly than in the laying
qualities of our hens
It is absolutely necessary, in order to
have our hens lay profitably, that is, to lay
enough eggs to pay for their keep and a
profit besides, that we Introduce fresh blood
IN our flocks every year. The writer has
kept a record for several wears, and OBJ
served closely, ard in every instance the
pullets Of the newest blood, that come of
the flock in which male absolutely una
kin TO he females had been introduced the
spring previous, were always the first to
lay, in point of age, and made the best lay
ers generally.
To have healthy, vigorous and profitable
poultry, we must then, without any ques-
tion, introdue new blood annually in our
focks

Finely suited coal ashes are excellent for

All the rakings, sod grass aud refuge of

If you have rough road across the farm
where heavy loads or moved, make it smooth
before you use it again.
One stone six inches high in a wheel track
causes more wear of team and C rriag
than an additional half mile of smooth road.
The fact that symtematic men do so much
work with 50 little effort is largely due to
their keeping their implements of labor in
order.
Wood ashes are excellent on the flower
beds. Roses need an application of the n

fitted by superphosphate and asnes at this
season.

Profits OF Science in Agriculture,

zine. A recent prize offered by an eastern

Tas awarded to strawberry gro Ner whose
Hles from two acres amounted to more
than 81 700; and E. P. Ros, in Play and
Profit in Ny Garden, has told us how he
secured gross return of slightly more than
1900 from the same amount of land. In
the report of the last annual meeting of the
New Jer ey Horticultural Society the fol-

toes. $585 per &C g; asparagus, four acres
returned 5000; seven acre, 81, 200; four
acres, $500 per acres, and some instances as
high as $500 per acre.
Peter Henderson tells of an asparagus
grower near Atlanta whose crop gave for
three successive years net profit of 81 500
per acre; and as instancing departures from
old methods, cites the case of a farmer re-
siding near Rochester, "who, half doze
years ago, timidly made the attempt OF
growing a half acre of bis 5)-acre farm in
vegetables for village market. His ven
ture was so satisfactory that he gradually
increased his area, 50 that he new uses
thirty of his fifty acres mostly in growing
capbages for the Rochester market. He
further informed me that the net profit
from the cabbage garden last year was
10000, or a little over $500 per acre, and
mat 1t was not very good year for cab
pages at that" And for the encourage
'nent OF those not ''to the manor born" the
