The genial Japanese gentleman,
though he may pursue the humblest
occupation in a household, never for
gets his p~oliteness or his poetry. He
may be busily engaged in prosaic oc-
cupation in the kitchen, but his
thoughts are always of the poetic
order. The innate sentiment which
seems to be inseparable from life in
Japan comes out in the peculiar
way that in America, OF any
where else the Japanese is studying
the language, he always learns tfroIn
the poets. Most other foreigners
learn it from the newspapers. The

Will Overflowed Cane Grow.

AS the sugar planters are to-day in
great distress, and some are ruined
forever, having lost their crops by
the overflow, | take the liberty to
give you some information about
canes that were overhowed for three
months. In 1882 | was manager on
the Evergreen plantation, in the par.
ish of Iberville. At that time that
plantation was the property of the
late DR.. j. P. r. Stone. That place
had never boen under water. DIR.
Stone had no back levee, as he did
not think that he could have lost
one-fourth of his crop; but the
crevasses from the Morganza, the
Scott, and the other parts which had
given away, the Evergreen, which
was the pride of DR.. Stone, was COW
cred over two-thirds. All the stub
bles covered by water was lost, and
the spring plant covered was also
lost; but the fall planting, which
had staid three months under wa.
ter, kept we'll. That cane was COW
cred with three and cur feet of wa
ter and kept fresh and green. That
same cane was cut for the mill and
gave 1900 pounds of sugar per acre.
That cane had made its roots, was
strong and was full of vegetation.
When the water went down and
when the land was very dry to plow,
of.barred it close, and the same
time l threw the dirt right back,
and | had the hoes to fill up the
gaps and to cover it deeper. That
cane had never changed its color,
except at the end of rows. In
week after it had been worked no
one would have supposed that that
cane had been so long under water.
am satisfied that most of the fall
planting which is under water will
keep well, provided it stands in
deep water. DR.. Stone lost that
year 140 acres of cane; even with
that loss he kept enough cane to
plant the year after $50 acres, and
he made that year 525 hhds. of
sugar, making 70S,75O lbs. of sugar,
and also 1900 bbls. of molasses,
giving so gallons per barrel, making
10000 of molasses.
| hope this information will give
more hope to the planters, and that
they will be able to plant good
crop with their fall planting. B.

How TO Make Good EnsiIage.

the corn at the proper state of matu-
rity. After repeated tests, am
satisfied that the best stage is just
as the corn comes in good condition
to boil for table use. We forme ly
cut much younger than this and re-
Gently have cut it older. but the
nearer it can be cut to this stage the
better, as all the parts, stalk, blade
and ear, are then at their best de.
velopment. Another point to OBJ
serve is to avoid the practice of
tramping, especially next the walls.
Fill the silo slowly, not because fast
filling will not give good ensilage,
but because slow filling gives the
ensilage a chance to heat thorough
ly and settle uniformly without
tramping. In cutting do not allow
the ensilagc to pile up in the middle
of the silo and throw all the cut ears
off 70 the sides, but keep spread out
level rs fast as cut. When the crop
is in, put about two feet of straw all
over the top and do not bother about
any other cover. The steam from
the mass ensilage will soon damp
-, the straw, and the mycelium Of
mould will soon run all through it
and seal it together into an air-tight
cover.
Don't pay any attention to the
various schemes of those who talk
about storing corn ensilage uncut.
Even if it would keep as we'll, we
can readily imagine the job of get
ting out Of the silo those long stalks
and the waste in feeding. The loss
on such practice will pay for an en-
silage cutter even in moderate
sized silo. You can build one on
the top Of the ground for what it
would cost to dig the hole, and it
would make better ensllage than the
the underground pit. A silo made
by setting good oak posts in the
ground, and sheathing inside with
one and a half inch stuff, nailed
horizontally, and an inch plank
nailed vertically inside of this and
coated with boiled tar, will last as
long as one regularly framed on q
sill, and I believe longer, and will
not cost as much. No floor what
ever is needed, but the ground out
side should be graded to prevent
any water getting under the silo.
The roof should project two or three
feet all around, so as to throw the
drip well off and to prevent the rain
beating in at the gables, which had
az well be left uninclosed. Ensilage
would have been much more widely
used before this, but for the general
impression that deep and costly ce-
mented pits were necessary, and an

The Election Laws
The president says it is gratifying to
know that generally there is growing
and non-partisan demand for better cleo
ton laws. The need of a law providing
federal supervision Of congressional cleo
tions has manifested itself in many parts
of the county The present law, he says,
stops just short of effectiveness, for it sur
renders to the local authorities all con-
troll over the certifcation which estab-
fishes the prima facie right to a seat in the
house of representatives. The defect
should be cured. The law should give
the advantage to honesty and the control
to majorities.
The Increased Circulation.
Some months of further trial, the presi-
dent says, will be necessary to determine
the permanent effect of the recent legis-
lation upon silver values, but it is graft
flying to know that the increased circular
ton secured by the act has exerted and
will continue to exert u most beneficial in-
fuence upon business and upon general
values
The disability pension act, the president
says, has been put into operation as rap
idly as was practicable, and the antici-
pated expenditure, while very large, will
not, 1t is believed, be in excess of the esti-
mates made before the enactment of the
law. The general law, he says, should
suggest a more careful scrutiny of bills
for special relief.
The killing of Bnrrundia.
In connection with the Central Ameri-
can troubles, the president says of the kill
ing of Gen. Barrundia on board the Pa
cific mail steamer Acapulco, that Minister
Miner exceeded the bounds of his author
ity, and he was therefore constrained to
disavow Mr.. MINERS act and recall him
from his post.
The beneficial working of the new treaty
of extradition with Great Britain the pres
ident says is already apparent. The diff
ference between the United States and
Great Britain, touching the fur seal ques-
ton in the Behring sea. is not yet adjusted,
but the president hopes that before the
opening of another sealing season some ar
rangement may be effected which will as
sure to the United States property right,
derived from Russia, which was not dis
regarded for more than eight years preced-
ing the outbreak of the existing trouble.
The Telegraph Lines.
The president does not believe that the
government shoulu own or onprate the
telegraph lines, but does believe that it is
quite practicable for the government to
contract with the telegraph companies to
carry communications at specified rates.
The civil service law, the president says,
has been executed with fidelity and inn
Partially, and the service has been in
creasingly satisfactory. The message closes
with reminder to congress that the brief
time remaining for the consideration of
important legislation offers no margin for
waste.

Opinion Mt the War Department.

WASHINGTON CITY, Dec. 3.--The war de-
partment received several dispatches yes
terday and late last night about the Indian
situation. These advices are to the effect
that a number of Indians from the Chey-
enne river agency have started for the Pine
Ridge agency. Some 200 Indians have left
the Rosebud agency and started for the
Bad Lands. The situation as whole is
not quite so favorable as it was last week,
but, on the contrary, troops have been
massed at the most dangerous points and
are in sufficient numbers to suppress any
outbreak that may occur.

The Question of New Party.

Mr.. Tillman, of Tennessee, the statistic
ian of the Alliance, said last night that the
question of forming new political party,
which would put a presidential ticket in
the field in 1892, would probably come up
for discussion at this meeting, but he pre-
diets that the question will be disposed of
by referring it to the different state ALI
ances for individual action. The first bus
mess session of the Alliance was held last
night. The session was secret, as will be
all those that follow. Eighty eight dele
gates were present. In addition to the
delegates there are ten or twelve oersons
entitled to vote, which brings the numer-
ical strength of the body up to 100.
Move on the Negro Vote.
The annual meeting of the national
Colored Farmers Alliance began here to-
day. The organization embraces twenty
two states and has membership of up
wards of 100000. Fifty delegates are
present. The chief purpose of the organi-
cation is political division of the negroes,
which contemplates the absorption of
much of their voting strength by the Dem
Ocrats
