business difficult matter, especially when
questions of a party character are undor

number will not be increased, except by the
admission of n embers from the three or

Assuming, therefore, that the present num-
Der will be maintained, the ratio of repre-

PROTECT The QUAIL.

Post the Land Against the Pot-Huuters.
and Give Them q Chance.
Quite number of farmers are COM
planning about the killing of quail on
their farms, and to stop the total ex-
termination OF this valuable bird most
OF them are posting their farms and re-
fuse to even let their friends hunt on
the land, where the birds have been
nearly all killed. The reason they give
for their action is very good one, it
being that the bird is one of the best
insect-destroyers of the insectivorous
birds, and its aunihilation would
work the greatest destruction to
farming products. The genuine hunter
and sportsman cares little for other
game than quail, and it is rare matter
that the farmers have occasion to COM
plain Of such hunters, as they never
abuse the privilege accorded to them.
by shooting stock, leaving down fences,
or otherwise taking advantages Of the
indulgence afforded them by land own
Frs and farmers. However the only
way to increase that tribe of birds is to
post the land until they start again, as
pot hunters have about cleaned them
up in places.-Warsaw (Ky.) Independ-
emit.

nothing of value that was not supplied
by the ashes (potash), but kainit being
richer in potash and the quantity sub
stitnted being greater, the result of the
substitution is large increase in the

effect Of the substitution would be a

For general crops. the first analysis
would give best results; for tobacco, the
second is preferred. The salt is of no
