Wisconsin Assessment.

Special to the Globe.
DEs MONIES, To-, March 2S.-The
executive council to-day completed its
annual labor of assessing the railroads
of the state. task that devolves upon
them instead of the local assessors.
They assessed the railroad property of
the state at S43. $50, 146, of which S43,-
269,60S is on railroads proper, and $685.
59S is added for sleeping and dining
cars. The assessment is S52.14 per
mile. The gross earnings as re-
ported s4S.S6 per mile, and the
percentage of assessments On gross
earnings is S1.19. The sworn
statements Of the road officials show a
falling off in gross earnings as COM
pared with the preceding year of about
81. SOC. ZOO, and most of the roads are as
sessed exactly the same as last year.
The council appears to have been re-
solved not to give the roads any excuse
for policy of inferior service.

trees and malicious persons would be
continually breaking the fences and let
ting the stock out. To be sure you could
make them pay damages if yoU could
prove whose cattle they were. 1t may be
that you think you could prove it
by the brand; but you know as well as /
that cattle are legal tender in stockmen's
trades, and they get so mixed up that
sometimes think they do not know their
own.
No, you have to have some kind of a
fence for your own protection. The fence
law now is at one extreme, and you pro-
pose to put it at the other. [ do not be-
lieve there is a stOckman in the country
but would join you heart and hand in a
just and equitable law. Let that law be
three strand fence, the upper and lower
strands of barbed wire placed on the in
side of the posts, and the middle wire to be
plain No. 10 placed on the outside of the
posts. The plain wire notifies you that
the fence is there, and if crowded too hard
the inside wires punctuates the nOtifica-
ton. Let it also be distinctly stated in
the law that if any hogs, goats or domes-
tic fowls are caught trespassing upon
such enclosed premises the owner of the
premises has legal right to shoot or
otherwise destroy them and dconvert them
to his own use, and that the owners of
said animals can have no redress at law.
That would put stop to all lawsuits,
and would let anyone keep stock that
chose to if he could; and he could if he
did not keep them tostealfrom his neigh

a considerable quantity of good muck
that has been composted, or at least, ex-
posed to the sun for few months. be-
lieve that the best results will be secured
by depositing the rakings of field and for
est in deep trenches, made by turning fur
rows in opposite directions, and putting
them in as thickly as possible, except in
the grove, where the roots might be in
jured. No matter how barren the soil,
few years of such treatment, especially if
fair amount of chemical fertilizers be
added, will render it capable of producing
generous crops, and that, too, at Il moder-
ate expense.
1t is much more satisfactory to grow
twenty-five or fifty or even one hundred
bushels ofcorn to theacre than five or ten,
yet the labor rofcultivating and plantingis
no greater in one case than in the other,
though that of harvesting would be. The
same facts are true of any other crop.
The idea should be to concentrate the ef-
fort and make every cultivated plat pro-
duce the utmost possible amount. Why
be content to grow fifty to seventy-fve
bushels OF sweet potatoes per acre when
you might produce 800 to 500 bushels
by concentrating your fertilizers and i'm
proving the quality of the soil?
Gather from field and forest whenever
most convenient and pile it in your field
if not ready to open the trenches for it,
but be sure and get it to your field. Ii a
little lime be scattered over it in the
trenches, before covering with dirt, it will
promote decomposition, and decay pro-
duces the humus SO essential to plant
growth. SHERMAN ADAMS.

lesson which this should teach us is that,
in getting trees, plants and shrubs from
another section of the country, they
should always be accompanied by an
analysis of the soil in which the particu-
lar varieties reached perfection. Wecould
then see that the trees were planted in the
Nurserymen would soon get accustomed
to these orders, if every farmer insisted
upon it in his order, and | think com
plants about certain first-class varieties
of fruits would not be so general.
