Deep-Stirred Soil.

More and more are farmers coming
to see that fneness of surface soil en-
courages moisture, and consequent nj
trificatfon, by capillary attraction,
which largely increases the crops in
dry weather. And as there is scarce
ly summer without dry spells. it is
advisable to prepare for these. SO far
as one can especially as no harm is
done should there be sufficient rainfall.
The season of 1891 was remarka-
BILE for drouthy spells. During it. in
teresting experiments were tried with
a plat of cabbages. A portion was
hoed often and the soil fined deeply.
Another portion was fined an inch,
and the remainder was not disturbed
except to pull out any weeds. The
crop on the deeply-stirred portion
made an excellent growth. on the
shallow stirred about half the former.
and on that not stirred there is almost
a total failure. This not only proves
the wisdom of dust blanket" but
also that the blanket should possess
thickness. AS thick bed blanket is
warmer than a thin one. provided both
are OF the same material so thick
''dust blanket" exceeds a thin one in
effectiveness. Country Gentleman.

Farm Notes.

Road dust is the best material for dust
bath.
Wheat is one of the best grains for lay
ing hens.
1t is a variety of feed that brings the
best results.
With all stock the safest plan is to breed
for the top of the market.
The time to be careful of an animals
growth is when it is young
Because corn is plenty and cheap is no
reason for wasting in feeding.
It is always an item to have the pigs
come to their food with good relish.
When pigs are confined in a close pen
they should have good variety of food.
The feeding places should always be
kept clean if the hogs are to be kept
thrifty.
In feeding roughness there is no advan-
tage in feeding more than the stock will
eat up clean at meal
Better keep less number and keep
thrifty, than large number on the keep
alive and no growth plan.
It is best to. commence feeding the pigs
at least two weeks before weaving, giving
them all that they will eat up clean.
The aggregate value of sheep in the
United States is given at s., 900, 900 more
than last year. This alone is sufficient
indication that farmers are awakening to
the Importance of this branch of our live
stock industry.
In shipping poultry see to it that the
coops are strong enough to last in transit.
Let them be so constructed as to allow
poultry to stand up. Never overcrowd,
and always keep hens and ROSTERS apart
when shipping.

Navy Beans a Profitab b Q Crop.

This is crop that is neglected in
this country" says the Homestead
although one that can be made
profitable ON almost any farm. We
do not grow enough to supply home
demands many being imported every
year, although it is one that is COM
paratively easy to raise and pays bet
ter than most field crops It is bet
ter to have clean land of good quality
and plant the beans in drills as soon
after the corn is planted as is possible.
Very good crops have been grown
whom planting was done as late as
Ju.u. Cultivation should begin as
soon as the plants are above the
ground, but when there is no
dew or rain on the plants, as that
spoils the foliage. The rows should
not be farther apart than three feet and
the plants should be close in the row.
Cultivation should continue until the
growth of foliage covers the ground
and stops the growth of weeds. When
two-thirds of the pods are ripe, pull
and stack as follows: Procure some
stout poles about six or eight feet long,
and with crow bar ram a hole in the
ground and put the pole in to depth
that will insure its standing in an up
right position. Lay some straw or
brush around the base of the pole to
hold the vines off the ground. then
stack the beans around these poles in
stacks not larger in diameter than two
and one-half or three feet and as high
as you can reach. gradually bringing
the stack to point at the top and
Gaping it with some slough grass.
The vines will cure in this position in
the very best possible manner and can
remain till there is time to thresh
them.
The great West. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1889-18??, 1891-12-18

Threshfng should be performed. on
a dry, clear day, otherwise. the beans
will not come out of the pods. The
same land can be used again and
again if rye is sown each fall on the
ground and plowed under in the spring.
Under equal conditions as many BUSH
els of beans as of wheat can be obtain
ed from an acre, and the selling price
of good clean stock is usually twice
that of wheat. The labor Of cultivat-
ing and threshing is somewhat great
er, but still leaves greater
profit than can be obtained from
any ordinary yield of wheat. We are
too prone to the belief that the pro-
duction of such crops belongs to the
specialist or the intensive farmer, but
we mistake in this, as an acre or so of
these can be grown on almost any
farm with a little more labor"

IngersOll has Much to Learn.

Il am with the Republican party on

money as a commodity, something
that cannot be created by law any
more than you can create wheat or
corn by law. lam also for the use of
gold and silver both, but want dol

l do not believe in light money, or in
! cheap money, or in poor money. These
ale all contradictions in terms. Con-
gress cannot fix the value of money.
The most it can do is to fix it's debt
paying power. It is beyond the pow

One of the most striking and con-
vincing facts of the solidity of the Al
| lance that impresses reader of as
large exchange list as the Herald pos
sesses is the remarkable change in
tone style and expression of the ALI
ance papers of the union. One year
| ago most of them seemed to be feeling
their way to secure prudent and eau
| tiOus position on the Alliance demands
from which they could repel attacks
| easily and without danger of much of
conflict. Now the same papers, with
| hundreds of others added to them, are
so bold, aggressive and anxious for
fight on the demands that one can al
most fancy that he can see the editor
prancing around his sanctum begging
some fellow that opposes the Alliance
to please step on his coat-ta and
accommodate him with discussion
on anything about the Alliance. This
change illustrates the prevailing SEN
timent among Alliance men. The
more the demands are discussed, the
stronger they appear. The more
they are studied the deeper the con-
viction that each and all of them
| are not only right and just but the
very best that could be adduced as an
answer to the problem the condition
of the people presents. The fact that
the opposition does not attack the
great principles involved in these de-
mands, and the equity and justice of
the basis upon which they rest shows
that tho conviction is also pressing it's
| wav into them that this answer, or
something better, must be assured in
the policy of the government No
other plan or policy seeks to answer
the questions, how shall the three
| billions Indebtedness of the farmers
be wiped out? How shall the country
be furnished safe currency on a
solid basis? How shall that currency
be made sufficiently large to meet the
demands of the country? How shall
! trusts and combines be destroyed?
How shall robber syndicates be an
initiated? How shall railroad barons
| be stopped in their robberies
by watering stocks and bonds
and exacting exorbitant tolls from
the people? How shall the
people be raised from the slough of
dependency and despair and be placed
on the high road to prosperity and in
| dependence? The Ocala demands an
swer these questions. That is what they
were formulated to meet-to answer
the problem the situation presents. It
is the only answer offered that has
any practical or possible chance of
success, even if all that is claimed for
it should be accomplished. Those
who are studying these questions are
becoming stronger and more Jealous
in this faith. The country is fast
realizing the justice and equity of the
demands, and the people are growing
in the faith and becoming more earn
est and Jealous in pressing them. Let
every Allianceman feel encouraged
and know that his cause is daily grow
ing in strength and the principles and
| policies it embodies are founded on
justice and equity and that God is on
the side of the right. Alliance Her,

CHINESE FLAG WORSHIP.
A Military Ceremony Before Starting
on a Warliks Expedition.


The viceroy, or generallissimo of
the Chinese army. whenever he is about
to start on warlike expedition. must
worship his flag. says the Overland
Monthly. Whenever he sends away
with a detachment of soldiers any high
military officer as his deputy to fight
the enemy, and generally, whenever
any high military officer is about to
proceed into battle the flag of his di-
vision Or brigade must be worshiped.
The worship is often performed on the
public parade ground The vlceroy
sometimes chooses to sacrifice to the
flag on his own parade ground connec-
ted with his yamun. The time selec-
ted is often about daylight Or little
later. Oftentimes the high officials.
both civil and military. connected
with the government are present. 1t
is necessary that all the officers who
are to accompany the expedition
should not only witness the ceremony.
but take part in it. The same remark
is true of the soldiers who are to be
sent away or engage in the fight
In the center of the arena is placed
a table having upon it two candles,
one censor, and several cups of wine
The candles are lighted at the proper
time. Some officer. kneeling down,
holds the large flag by means Of it's
staff near the table. The viceroy, or
the officer who is to command the ex-
pedition, standing before the table and
the flag, receives three sticks of light
ed incense from a professor Of cerenio-
ny, which he reverently places in the
censor arranged between the candles
He now kneels on the ground, and
bows his head three times. Some of
the wine taken from the table is hand
ed to him while on his knees, which
he pOurs out on the ground. Then a
cup of wine is dashed on the flag, the
professor of ceremony crying out
'Unfurling the flag victory is obtain

viously knelt down and bowed their
heads in the prescribed manner, now
