House in passing every measure asked
for by organized Labor is in striking
contrast with what the dem ocrats did
while they had majority in that body.
The facts in this case furnish on in
struc:ive illustrated object lesson Of
the methods and objects Of the two
parties. The democrats patted the
laborer on the back and talked for
hours and hours about what he ought
to have, but they gave him nothing.
The republicans did less talking, but
they gave the laborer all the Legislation
he asked for. The republicans of the
House desire no special thsnks fol
their action; they but performed their
duty. a duty taught by the traditions
of the republican party, which has al
ways been the party of liberty human
ity and progress.

FARM NOTES

wherever there is a low, damp, place
there should be a ditch or an under layer
of drain tile.
Plum trees thrive best on a somewhat
heavy soil, though they can be grown
also on light sandy locations.
Cherries are an excellent crop to sell,
Il more trees should be set ont. The
annual demand Is greater than the sur
ply.
Air-slaked lime busted overthe ground
around young trees serves as a partial
protection against some kind of insects.
Trees which bear stone fruit must be
grated carly, as the bark will peel off
and curl up ii it is injured after the SAP
starts.
DO not usc spruted seed of anv kind.
fotntoes that are kept at too high a tenn
pefature will sprout, which Injuries them
to a certain extent.
On many farms 1t would be wiser to
start a new garden thanTo use the old
one full of weed seed. So saws Waldo
f. Brown in the Weekly Tribune.
At this season the wells from which
the drinking water is obtained are liable
to be polluted with surface water. Grade
around the well and force the surface
water away.
Prof. Maynard is quoted as saving
that birds do more good than harm TO
the farmer and orchardist, and that more
trees should be planted that they NAV
nave a due share of the fruit and leave
some for the grower.
In purchasing young trees for spring
planting it is best to purchase of some
nnrseryman in the same latitude or
farther north, as those grown to the
southwark are liable to be too far adj
vanccd for safe ~transplanting.
