tude OF industries that use tin coverings,
and enable us to sell American tin pl ties
in Wales, and at profit.
1t was clearly shown to the committees
Of both houses that cheap tin coverings
would increase the canning industry alone
to an extent that 80, 900 to 100000 more
hands would be employed. together with
large acreage of farm lands to supply
the fruit and vegetables necessary.
Strong appeals were made to congress to
use good business principles in solving
this problem. 1t was argued that we had
better pay bounty on every sheet of tin
plates made, deducting for this from the
present, or reduced revenue on the i'm
ported article, than to levy tax of three
cents on every milk pan of the farmer, OF
two and half cents on the dinner pail of
a laboring man. No doubt like or a
better solution would have found favor.

cerned made it equally interesting to the
controlling spirits of the party in power

To be sure congress invites the people

ing such matters in charge. but the BUSH
ness men of the country especially have
learned to believe that their influence
avails nothing unless they can afford to
employ strong lobby to accomplish the
end sought.

sand tadpoles were put into this breeding
pen. Many of them are now of market
able size, and are worth $3.50 and 50
dozen. In catching them for market a
light at night is used. They stare at the
light, and can be caught and handled with
ease in its glare. In catching large guam
titles of carp the lake is drained off In
winter the marketable fish are kept in
small ponds.
1t Is interesting to observe the water
farmer at his work. He can use horse
for side purposes, but he needs neither,
pillow, planter nor reaper. Suppose he has
gone out to feed. He has with him mid
dlings or other grain. He goes to the breed
ing pond, sounds a gong or blows a whistle
and thousands of frogs come hopping from
their shelter. They eat the food ravenous-
ly, and become SO tame that the farmer
handles them as woman does her pet
chickens. The same food is just the thing
for young and old carp. Fish and frogs

LIFE ON A WATER FARM.
There l. Profit in Raising Fish and Frogs
for Market.


for Market
1t has not been many years since water
farming was added to the possibilities of
agriculture" in Indiana. IL began as a
diversion. Ii has become business
Enough time has now elapsed to demon
strate that water farming may he made
practicable and profitable-at least as prof
liable as some other rural occupation, and
more enticinG than the ordinary life of an
agriculturist. As much money can be
made off an acre of water as off an acre of
land, including well located fish and frog
ponds on the one hand and ordinary farm
ing on the other.
One of the pioneers of water farming in
Indiana is Mr.. Joseph Manlove, of Milton
Seven years ago he bought small piece of
low land lying between the White Water
canal and White Water river. He deter
mined to food the low land. and to add to
his possessions the adjoining high land for
park purposes. His place now includes
fourteen acres of water and twenty-one of
land. His business is largely with the
water and only incidentally with the dry
land. His first purpose was to establish
carp pond, from which the fish market
might be supplied This was accomplished
in two years with comparative ease Now
he has practically an unlimited quantity
of this variety of fish. However, the pub
lie taste also calls for bass, and Manlove
determined to add this variety to his sup
ply. His lake is now stocked with vast
supply of black bass. They have grown
finely, and bass fishing will be put on the
market" Bass promise so much better
than carp that Farmer Manlove uses his
young carp as food for his bass.
Still another department" has been add
ed to the ''farm"-frogs. Four acres of
shallow water, well grown in flags, were
set apart as breeding place for frogs.

There is absolutely no protection thrown
about the matter of arranging pairs in the
house. The only rule upon the subject
says that after the first call of the day all
pairs shall be announced by the clerk. The
practice is for members making the pairs
to hand the announcement of them to the
clerk, who sees they are printed in The
Record No questions are asked, and the
members fix up the pairs to suit them
selves. Thus, when member is absent
and is not paired, ne can telegraph to a
colleague and find some member on the
other side in the same situation, when it is
arranged that The Record shall state that
these two absent members were paired.
One member who went to Europe with
out taking the precaution to get a pair was
used to protect half a dozen members in
one day. 1t was also found that he WAS
paired with member who never knew the
other man was absent from Washington
