whether it be true that the South

Mr.. Henderson will reply that there
has been no such consultation, caucus or

no such action has been taken by any
Senators or Representatives in Congress
in relation to the measure, and that there
is NO foundation for such reports.

A Substitute for Felt.

Many of the cheap derby hats that will
season will be made of new material of
which the hatters have Just got hold.
The stuff is called linters. 1t is the short
cotton left on the seed after the cotton
has been ginned by the cotton raiser. He
sells the cotton to the merchant, and the
seed to mill that makes cottonseed-oil.
The miller puts the seed through another
gin, specially made to clean short cotton
from the seed. In an oil mill of small
capacity several bales of cotton are
ginned from the seed in this way. The
fibre is broken and very short, and up to
few months ago the mills sold it to
stuff bedding with. Its price was about
half that of average cotton. The colored
people in the South were the buyers gen.
orally, but occasionally the mills would
get good, big order from concerns that
made pillows and mattresses. Suddenly
somebody found out that it could be
made to initiate felt for cheap hats. The
experiment then of making hats of lin
tiers was made on large scale by a New
York factory, and the hats were sold to
retailers Tor introduction very cheaply.
The test showed that the hats stood wear,
and the oil mills were at once called on
by the manufacturers to make contracts
for all the linters they could get off the
cottonseed. Now linters has gone away
up in price, and is only few cents
pound cheaper than cotton. The discov-
cry is likely to have lowering effect
upon the kind of derbies which have sold
for 50, and in fact some merchants are
already using the linters derbies as ''lead-
ers" for their other goods, selling them
at half the cost of the felt hat.-S. Louis

ECONOMY IN FARMING.

Improved farming implements and
labor saving machines are now so COM
mon that the farmer that is content to
plod along with only those of the long
time-ago pattern is seldom to be found in
any good farming community. | GER
tainly would not discourage any one from
getting the best farm tools for his use, as
they will usually be found the cheapest in
the end; but there is such a thing as
OVERRIDING this business and investing
more in implements to work with than
one will be able to realize from their
use. Before farmer runs in debt for
expensive machinery he should estimate
the amount of money his crops will prob
ably bring him; and if he is at all wise he
will not pay more for labor-saving ma
chimes than their use will be worth to him.
Every farmer should gauge his expendi-
lures by his probable income from his
crops, and not attempt to rival more
wealthy neighbors with larger farms in
the character and variety of his farm
tools, but, as the old saying goes, he
should cut his coat according to his
cloth. A farmer in moderate circum-
stances should also be careful about hiring
help and should first ask himself the
question if his hired man is likely to
yield him a profit over and above the
wages paid him and fair allowance for
his board. The profits in farming are
too small now to allow of any expendi-
lures that do not return an actual profit
in some way World.

THIN PLANTING For ENs1AGE,

Corn grown for fodder, either as en-
silage or dried for winter use, should
always be planted or drilled thinly
enough to permit the formation of some
ears. What distance apart this will be
must depend largely on condition of the
soil, that very rich tending to produce
some ears when drilled quite closely in
rows far enough apart to run cultivator
through while the plants are small. 1t
is not necessary nor advisable that the
ears be large for fodder, as they will be,
harder to cure if dried, and more diff
cult to cut up with the ensilage cutter.
Cattle eat this richer food much more
thoroughly than they do corn fodder
grown so closely as not to form ears,
The grains of corn also in this ensilage
are perfectly digested, and do not come
out while on the manure heap, as they
do when corn is fed dry. An addition of
bran, wheat middlings or barley sprouts
improves the ration for cows giving milk,
but is less necessary than with the
poorer, thickly grown corn fodder

Russian Fruits.

The extreme cold to which vegetation
in Russia is subjected has effectually
killed many varieties of fruits which are
too tender for the climate 1t has been
commonly found that the fruits which
can exist and thrive under these adverse
conditions when brought to a milder
cline like the United States, prove of
great value, not alone retaining their
hardihood, but also apparently display
ing gratitude by an increase in bearing
capacity. Among the plants obtained
which have proved of especial useful
ness in this country can be named the
Russian cherries, plums and apples in
considerable variety. In portions of Russia
every available spot is given up to the
production of fruit. At Vladimir, cher
ries are specially, and orchards of TO-
600 to 5000 trees Tor rather bushes,
for the cherry does not attain great size
there, are not uncommon. The tenn
perature often falls as low as fifty eight
degrees below zero. During the short
summers Moscow and the cities of
Southern Siberia are overwhelmed with
this luscious fruit Simberisk, located
in the dry steppe region, 500 miles south
of Moscow, on the black prairie soil, is
literal swamp of apple, pear and plum
trees. A peculiar characteristic of fruit
growing is the extreme provincialism of
the business. Varieties grown in one
province and very common and popular
are utterly unknown or known by an en-
tirely different name in another locality
comparatively few miles distant. The
apple tree is usually small in size, bushY
in its habits Of growth and loaded with
snowy and excellent fruit. The same
growth characterizes the ravages of in
sects. Apples are set as closely as the
American method of setting grapes;
cherries and plums are not more than five
feet apart. This region, as is well
known, is 1000 miles north of the line
stretching in the United States from
Newburg, Oh the Hudson, to Des
Moines, Iowa. The dry summers and
the cold winters make the average life Of
these trees short. The true ironclads
have the foliage and habits of the wild
apples found on the bluffs of the Upper
Volga. The trees are low and scruboy,
but rich in their production of good
fruit.-Neu York Herald
