Experimental EARNING.

1t can no longer be said that the Gov
eminent ofthe United States is neglect
ing the farming interests, Secretary
Rusk has issued a pamphlet giving d
history OF the Agricultural experiment
stations which have been established
under recent law OF Congress and
which are now conducting scientific and
practical experiments IN regard to soil,
tillage, manures, crops, stOck'ieeding,
dairying and horticulture in the various
States. All the States and one Terri
tory, Dakota, now have agricultural ex,
pertinent stations. The total number Of
these stations in operation is a., or in
Guiding branch stations, nearly 60. They
employ more than $40 scientists and a.
riculturists, and will this year receive
$685., 900 from the National Government,
and about Sl95,O 900 from the States and
other sources. The most cordial feeling
is said to exist between the stations and
the Department OF Agriculture, which il
charged by Congress with the duty Of
supervising and aiding the work OF the
stations,

Sew people elsewhere in the world
may ever have heard OF blasting holes
to plant shade or fruit trees, said Cul-
tivator the other day, yet the practice
is common here and shows good results,
In most places there is found sufficient
top soil for any purpose, but rs land has
become valuable, people have cast
about for means to utilize lands where
the coarse sand rock comes too near the
surface for successful tree planting, A
blast, well put in, creates pocket for
broken rock mixed with top soil, which
furnishes a basin TO hold moisture as
well as deeper and cooler hold for the
roots, 1t is yet too early to say what
will be the ultimate results Of such
planting, but in climate like ours,
where a superhuity Of rainfall is not
likely to occur, it will no doubt be sue

SENATOR gyARTS LOG CABIN.

Senator EvRrts has erected an old FASH
Toned Log Cabin on an elevated point oi
land which he lately purchased on the
Potomac, just below Washington.
1t is much more elegant in its finish
and appointments than were the homes
OF our ancestors in the Log Cabin days
Of long ago, but probably not more con-
duciye to comfort.
Outside, it presents the appearance OF
the typical old fashioned house OF the
pioneers, being built OF logs hewn in the
adjacent forest and raised and Chinked in
the olden style. The interior will be
finished in native woods, from the place,
but, unlike the primitive original, 1t will
he finished in oil.
This is luxury to which the dwellers
in the rude Cabins OF early days dared
not aspire, It being pure luxury, and not
adding to the comfort OF the domicile.
Senator Eyarts began, the Log Cabin
lastsummer with the determination that,
il General Harrison was elected, he
would reverse the popular campaign
axiom OF half century ago, From the
Log Cabin to the White House." TO q
social axiom OF the new administration,
From the White House to the Log
Cabin"
Harrison was successful; Senator
Evarts' new, old-iashioned, Log Cabin
will doubtless also prove great success.
Many happy days surcease from the
tolls and cares Of this great station, our
Log Cabin president will no doubt enjoy
beneath its hosPtable roof as the guest
OF the genial, senior Senator from New
York.
Great as the success may be that at
tends the Introduction OF this old.time
log cabin to fashionable life, it cannot
be greater than the success which has
attended the introduction OF Warmers
Log Cabin Sarsaparilla, one OF the old
time, effective remedies, the use Of
which, in primitive times, gave our
grandparents health and rugged old age.
Senator Evarts' log cabin is but an
other evidence OF the tendency in fash
iOnable life, ut present so marked, toward
things primitive and antiquated. The
new fashion is for things Old-iashioned,
and u return to the old.fashioned roots
and herbs remedies Of log cabin days is
noted with pleasure, as their common
use does not permanently injure the sys-
TEN as the use OF the mineral drugs Of
modern medical practice does.
