A MODEL SALOON.
A Few Rules For a Place Where the Public
is Accommodated.

National Review.
Considering that public houses are meant
for the use and reception of the general
public, let henceforward no public house
be built that does not satisfy the following
conditions:
l. The bar (which is a direct incentive
to drinking) to be removed altogether,
and orders for meat and drink to be given
to the waiter in attendance las is the
practice in Germany.
2. No room with the exception of lava
tories) that is meant for the public use to
be less than 80 to IS feet long, Is feet wide
and IL feet high. The part in public use
must consist of not less than three rooms,
viz, dining room, smoking room and
a non-smoking room.
3. Every room must be properly venti-
lated.
f. AT least three daily papers, at least
two weekly papers and at least two maya
zines to be found both in the smoking and
the non-smoking room.
5: A library of not less than one hun
bred books Ito be selected from list pre-
pared by competent board such rs the
Educational Department. to be provided.
6. The coffee, cocoa and pure beer
English and Germany to be sold on the
premises. Wines and spirits strictly pro-
hibfted, and no beer to be sold before l
?. NJ.
7. Any person, by paying 4d. a week,
Is. month, or IS. year, to be allowed to
use the premises freely without being ex-
pected either to eat or drink anything for
the good of the house; and the same mem
bership to enable him to use any other
rooms, such as billiard rooms. reception,
etc, as may from time to time be added.
s. All public houses to comply with
these rules within FIVE (or ten) years, or
their licenses will be withdrawn.
Of course, there is legislation in the
above, but it lis legislation of a distinctly
negative kind, which merely says that the
public as a body are to be protected from
wrong in q case where they are themselves
helpless, and it in no way interferes with
their private and individual rights.

Principles of Fertilization.

According to Prof. Wagner, says the
New York Herald, and some other authori-
ties, crops are divided into two very dis
tinctly marked classes-the nitrogen gather
ers and the nitrogen in the soil TO start the
nitrogen gathers, they draw all their supply
of nitrogen from the atmosphere. 1t is,
therefore. waste to supply nitrogen to these
crops The nitrogen consumers draw no
perceptible amount of nitrogen from the
atmosphere, but take it all up through the
soil. Hence for them nitrogen must be ap
piled to tie soil or furnished to the soil by
some other means. 1t may be through the
roots and stubble of a previous nitrogen
gathering crop or by the direct application
of nitrates.
All drops require potash aud phosphoric
acid, and in some cases it may be necessary
to supply lime. Hence all soils should be
fortified with these three ingredients until
they contain SO much that any addition of
them makes no perceptible increase of crop.
A soil SO charged is in maximum condi-
ton. Now adopt system of rotation that
will give alternately a nitrogen gathering
crop and a nitrogen consuming crop, and
there will bs very little demand for the ap-
plication of nitrates, as the nitrogen gath
erIng crop will each time furnish the requi-
site amount of nitrogen for the following
nitrogen consuming crop. In this way ma
ture is made to furnish 60 the soil the most
costly of all the fertilizers. Such is the
theory. Now, what C ops are nitrogen
gatherings The answer is, all the legumln-
Gus plants-as peas, beans, clover, lupins.
seradella. lentilS, esparsstte, etc. What
crops are nitrogen consuming? Ans ser:
Ali the cereals, the grasses and some, if not
all, of the roots. fruits ETC., including maze
and potatoes, wheat rye. oats, barley and
50 on. The proper rotation of these two
classes of crops. if the soil is well supplied
with potash, phosphorlc acid and lime, is
supposed to secure maximum crops ana the
most economical fertilization-both the
crops and the economy to be enhanced by
careful and judicious saving and applica-
ton of all available ferttli1ng material on
the farm

The following is said, by writer in the
Texas Farm and Ranch, to be cheap and
sure cure for collie in horses. That it is
cheap no one will deny, but its efficacy re-
mains to be proven by trial. Here is the
recipe:

toms of collie, feel the jugular vein back Of
the jaw, on the right side, and rub it gently
five to ten inches with flannel rag wet

will cure him in ten minutes; if it is bolts,
it will have no effect This is good way

CHICAGO, May 26.-That the govern,

Don Enrique Gales, the Mexico banker
thinks the rumor has a solid Foundation.
1T is believed in Mexico" said he,
"that Secretary Blaine and Minister
Romero have partly matured plan
from a reciprocity treaty. While it may
be limited in scope, it will allow great
advancement of trade between the two
countries. We expect Minister Romero

there will be to confer with his govern

while we are satisfied that rumor is
not groundless, definite reports cannot
be ascertained about it. Secrets of the
legation are always jealously guarded.
Mexican people are pleased with United
States minister. He has given as much
if not more study to questions affecting
trade between the two countries as any
previous minister.
"If Secretary Blaine and Minister
Romero have succeeded in reaching a
conclusion, it is certain that the treaty
will be of mutual benefit and will soon
be counted in dollars and cents, much
to the favor of American merchants.
