A MORNING WEDDING.
The McIycr-Shaw Nuptials Sol
emnized atSt. J0seph's Church.

The MCIVcr-Shaw NuDtialS Sol
emnized atSt. Joseph's Church.
Miss Alice Shaw and Francis Fergus.
McIver were married at 10:30 yesterday
morning at st. Mary's church in the
presence of the friends and relatives Of
both. The brides sister, Miss Mary
Shaw, was bridesmaid; Edward Bran
degee, of Utica, n. Y, was best man,
and Messrs. Alexander Speel, Ambrose
Tighe, Allan McQuillan, r. e. Rider,
Ii. G. Wood and Louis NJ. Hastings
were ushers. There was perhaps more
interest in the wedding than has been
the case with any occurring in st.
Mary'S church for some time past.
The church was literally packed to
the doors an hour before the
time announced for the per-
Torrance of the ceremony. About the
altar, and, In fact, the whole interior of
the church, there clustered the faireSt
flowers that money could buy or loving
hands could arrange-yet, even the fin
est of them all paled into insignifcance
beside the beauty of the bride, who has
long sustained the reputation of being
one of the faireStin city of fair women.
The fact that Miss Shaw had long been
q faithful and valued member of the
church choir was, perhaps, to some de-
gree responsible for the magnificent
work of that organization in connection
with the ceremony. The wedding mass
was celebrated by Rev. Father Conroy,
the solemity of the service blending har-
moniously with the soft lighting of the
sanctuary and the impreSsiveness
of the musical programme. The
wedding breakfast was served at
five InSi1nnan of hfrS Sba
where an informal reception was held
lasting an hour. Mr.. and Mrs. McIver
left for a tour of the South last evening
and will, upon the completion of the
wedding trip, take up their residence in

HOT ROAST.
D,,,nn e Nj

The experience of Minnesota in dis
bursting this soldiers relief fund, ought
to.be an incentive to all our people to
unite i'll an intelligent demand for more
just and liberal pension policy on the
part of the national government. Min
nesota is now paying out about $4,000
a year for the relief of dis
abled and destitute veterans outside the
state soldiers home, every dollar of
which should be paid by the United
States. Nay, more, the relief furnished
by the state is still so glaringly made
Qpate that an addition of more than
double that sum, to the present pension
disbursements in this state, would fall
far short OF the needs and the deserv-
lngs of our surviving eX-sOldierS.

mat heSn DISnOD ireland, Despite
His Denial, Will Go Higher.
The rumors that Archbishop Ireland
is to be made cardinal seems to gather
force as it travels. Information is said
to have been received from Rome which
places beyond question the fact that the
pope has decided on honoring the arch
bishop in the manner mentioned. Arch
bishop Ireland, when seen recently
upon the subject, denied all knowledge
CT any such intention on the part of the
pope; though from the great ere
d6nce given the statements regarding
tue cardinalship in Catholic circles it
seems that there may after all be some
thing more than mere TumOr in the
story. 1t has long been an open secret
that if a second CARDINAL is to be selected
for the United States, the choice will,
almost necessarily, fall upon the arch
bishop of New York, in which see the
red robes of the Office were Won by his
immediate predecessor. But church
men who have watched the trend of
events in the Catholic church OF this
country. and who have observed the
enormous growth of the Northwestern
diocese, believe that Archbishop Ireland
may also be appointed. For this rea-

The death Of Mrs. Susan E. Mer-
rifield, at Americas, Ga, on End
inst, REEVES interest in one of the
most peculiar cases ever known Of a
VOW OF silence made and kept thirty
years: II is stated that in l86OMrs.
Merrifeld, who, it is said. was Ait.
tie woman Of peculiarly bright
and CHEEKY disposition, was telling
her husband Of some occurrences
when he requested her in a yery
suriy manner to be silent, adding
that ths sound Of her voice was hate.

1t seems that Mr.. MerriHeld.
while good husband in every other
way, was in the habit of venting hi,
displeasure when aroused by outside
matters by i'll humor with his wife.
whose good nature usually passed
his testiness by, but on this coca
sion she replied that as il was hate
ful to him he should never hear her
voice again. And he never did, nor
did any othor person, ever hear il.
for in spite of her husbands re,
morse and circumstances from
friends and. relatives, Mrs. Merri-
field kept her room, though she con-
tinued to act the part of a good wife
and mother, fulfilling every duty
scrupulously. She even bore three
children to her husband after tbs
VOW was taken. When commune
cation was absolutely necessary with
those about her she used slate. but
reduced language of signs to such
perfection in covering her hsuse-
hold and children that il was but
seldom that this slate was resorted
to.
1t was thought that when her
husband died she would resume the
use of her speech, but while she sat
BY his dying bed, devoted and low

that she found it impossible to
break her will and her VOW, or that
long disuse had affected her organs
50 that she really could not use
them, could not be arrived at, but
her family inclined to the latter be-

Experimental Notes.

Experiments at the New York Expert
mental Station made by Dr.. Peter Collier
showed that about 80 per cent. of the fer
tilizing elements contained in the food con-
sumed by the dairy cows remained in the
excrement. For every Is cents worth of
food consumed at least 10 cents worth of
manure was given back it the solid and
liquid matter was properly saved and ap-
piled to the soil. Taxing cotton seed meal
as an illustration, 100 pounds of it, costing
about 81 % cents, would give back manure
worth over 81 10 cents.

Impoverished bv Evaporation.

Il. Gautier makes remark that contains
much truth when he says in the CuLtiuator.:
l believe all soils are impoverished more by
evaporation than by teaching down. wash
ing away or by what is taken up by crops.
By examining the subsoil of cultivated
fields, rich or poor, generally yellow or red
clay sometimes mixed with sand, it will
be found about the same under all sandy
soils. Fresh cleared fields are generally
good, the luxuriant growth that covered
them never diminished their fertility, there
was no teaching down, no washing away.
no evaporation; the soil was protected. but
when under cultivation, piowing aud ex-
posure to the winds and sun of our loag
summers they will become impoverished. all
the plant food gone, not down or washed
away but gone up to return no more by that
route. think a field of our sandy soil if
made very rich after being plowed five or
six times during summer for three or four
years would be made very poor whether
planted or not; maybe worse if not planted
at all it would be more exposed
Shallow cultivation during summer is the
best in such soils for field crops. For fruit
trees we should initiate nature put our land
in good condition. pillow and harrow and
make as level as possible; after planting
your trees, if in reach, get some kind of
mulching, pine straw, bark, leaves, saw
dust, trash of any kind, and cover the
ground, the coarser the stuff the thicker;
four or five inches of saw dust will do. Put
your trees close enough so as tops will meet
when of full size, for then mulching will
not be needed. l have about 100 fig trees,
planted year ago in very poor dry
soil, mulched with pine bark, bearing and
doing very well. The only way. think, to
raisel figs on large scale in sandy soil.
have also 1000 orange trees planted in poor
soil-they are beautiful. Fig or orange
never suffer in the longest drought. This
was begun three years ago, the orange trees
mulched with sawdust, fresh from the mill.
There is little in sawdust as a fertilizer, but
it prevents evaporation from the decompos-
ing soil, consequently the soil must be i'm
proving. This mulching Of course is appli

Deep planting is another frequent cause
Of failure. Take. for Instance, sweet corn,
and cover in planting from one-half inch to
five inches in depth. The former will ger

not complied with-the deficit being heat.
which, at the season for corn planting. can
not be furnished at so great a depth from
the surface. As rule. not more than one
quarter of an inch of soil should be put
over the seed. Very fine seed should only
be covered from sight Proper care in seed
sowing, and the too common practice Of
burylng seeds, is just the difference between
success and failure in their termination and
growth.
Mechanical assistance, or the manner of
placing the seeds in the earth, is Of greater
importance than is generally supposed, par
ticularly those of the gourd family, or any
large and flat seeds. 1t is economy to plant
all vine seed edgewise. Lima beans should
always be placed edgewise, germ down.
The same is true with the seeds of the hybrid
amaryllis. If sown fiatwise, they will rarely
make plant; if sown edgewise, rarely one
will fail, under the same conditions of soil
and temperature. Any careful experiment
ter can easily explain how one man could
complain of the seed sown, while another
would kindly praise the scotsman for seed
from the same stock, and will become con-
WINGED that, very often, seeds not growing
is more due to poor sowing than to poor
seeds.

make seed in this climate. Numerous tests
have developed the fact that our seasons are
not long enough between frosts to allow of
its maturing seed. It is a tender plant and
can endure no seyerer cold than our ordi-
nary corn. One obstacle has been in the
way of its meeting with the favor that it
deserves, and that has been the difficulty in
getting fresh and reliable seeds to make the
first experiments with. Much the larger
part of Teosinte seed that has heretofore
been sold by seed merchants, or distributed
by agricultural departments. have been
stale and only small per cent. generally
have had vitality enough to ge inmate and
grow.
Hundreds of farmers in their efforts to
give the plants trial have been disap-
pointed of getting the information sought,
simply because the seed was not good.
In many cases not a seed came up where
an ounce or half ounce were planted.
Others again were rewarded with dozen
or so of plants. I have no doubt if the seed
had been uniformly good to the extent even
OF TO per cent. in these trials, there would now
be dozen farmers commanding and using
to more or less extent Teosinte as a forage
provider where there is only one.
The writer was, perhaps, the first to
record o test of the Teosinte in this state
In the Southern Cultiuator for October,
1879 tpage 1863 recorded my impressions of
the plant as derived from first trial of it.
Repeated trials in a small way since that
time have only confirmed the favorable
impression made by the first trial.
An acre of Teosinte grown under perfect
conditions from beginning to end would
afford an amount of forage that would en-
rapture the stock grower perhaps as he
never was before.
On rich land, with perfectly good seed to
start with, with the planting made just as
early as the frost will permit, the soil deeply
broken and well pulverized, and the cult
walton prompt and seasonable, one acre
of Teosinte would be worth good long
walk to see. On level land 1 should always
plant in checks either 4 by or by feet,
the latter distance on very rich land. One
need not attempt TO grow it on poor land.
Disappointment is sure to follow such an
attempt.
Peas or fodder corn is more appropriate
for such land.
Tesointe is not a sorghum, but is more
like corn than anything else. 1t is rather
slow in growing IF, its habit being to tiller
or spread somewhat horizontally before
rapid growth proceeds. Once well started
its growth is wonderful on rich, moist land.
Planted in March or early in April on such
land it will afford two heavy cuttings, and
the aftermath oftentimes quite a good
pasture after the second cutting, when this
second cutting is made early in October.
The roos decay during the winter, and af-
ford considerable vegetable matter to the
soil, along with the stubble. We hope the
agricultural department at Washington
will secure some first-class seeds for distri-
button next spring. There are great many
who need to make a second trial of Teosints
under more favorable conditions.
