A Democrat Wants a Chance.

From the Medicine OFesscl-
The Cresset copies, with comment. an
article from the EAGLE, about extrava-
gance of the lower house IN printing the
daily journal of the two houses on heavy
book paper. The article wind UP BY
saying that ''such extravaganza would
have driven the Republican party from
power IN its pslmiest days" We would
suggest TO both the above papers that
the printing contract of the Republican
incumbent does not expire TIL July. The
present extravaganza IS being carried
ont by Republican contract with Re-
publican state printer. and that it did
help 10 drive the Republican party
from power in its paimlest day.

Speaking of the Knights of Reciproc-
ity the Emporia Republican protests
against any more lodge room politics.
On general principles the Republican is
right. Kansas has had quite enough of
compromising, not to say expensive,
experience in that line of late, to last it
for all time, it is hoped.

Jerry Simpon said at Annapolis that
he was unable to determine which had
given him the greatest reputation, his
feet cr his head. The Fort Scott Moni-

eide: his feet are the strongest. That
may be; but when it comes to size they
are nowhere.

Tie two most important things done
were the passage of q state banking law
and the passage OF a joint resolution to
submit a proposition Ito be voted on in

Probably the worst thing done was the
passage of the alien land bill, involving
the partial or total confseation of proper

OF New Fertilizer Laws.

Digest of New Fertilizer Laws.
The following digest Of the new
fertilizer laws just passed By the
General Assembly will be Of gem
eral ;aterest. The law substitutes a
tonnage charge Instead OF the privi-
lege tax on the brand. Manpfac,
tuners or others must now pay a
tonnage charge os % cents p.r ton
on all fertilizers and ferilinng
materials. Tags must he produced
from the Commissioner Of Agricul-
ture to be attached to every bag be-
fore shipment to agents dealers, ,or
consumers in this State.
Ii is ms demeanor and a fine Of
$40 for each bag, for an agent OF
dealer to offer for sale any such fer
tilizer or fertilizlng materials not
properly tagged, or 4 consumer to
remove it, or railroad agent to de-
liver it. Fertilizers which now have
q license to sell (secured last year
will not be required to pay the
charge or to be tagged until expira'
ton Of their licenses. All other:
on sale must be tagged properly al
once. Goods kept over from last
season must be tagged to represent
this fact, and all dealers are reqnlr-
ed torepcrt the amount on hand al

A Sensational Event.

Two gentlemen who were for
merly associated in an official
capacity at Albany, but have
seen very little ofeach other for
some time, met at a club dinner
last Saturday night and shook
hands. But if they had shaken
the entire American Continent
they could hardly.haye produced
a greatar sensation. The poll
teal and journalistic world has
been talking about little else all
the week. Cleveland and Hill
shook hands, II was so sur
prising, you know! Everybody
expected that,as soon as the two
caught sight Of each other the
ex-Presideat would begin to
throw plates and wine glasses
at the Senator-G Governors head,
and that the latter would re-
taliate by Selling the nearest
carving knife and flying at the
other statesman's throat.
Strange to say, nothing Of the
sort took place. The assistance
Of the police did not have to be
invoked. The two gentlemen
shook hands, exchanged a few
formal compliments, and, after
the dinner, went upon their
respective ways.
What wonderful things do
happen sometimes, as Aristotle
remarks in the new treatise Of
his that has just been discover
ed in Egypt.

Test Your Seeds.

Many hundreds of dollars will
be lost and much disappoint
ment incurred this spring by
sowing stale and poor seeds in
field and garden. Much of this
loss and annoyance may be
prevented by testing the seeds
before sowing them. The North
Carolina Experiment Station
has facilities for testing seeds,
and its services are, free OF
charge, at the disposal of any
farmer in the State.
Farmers wishing seeds tested
must decide early what kinds OF
seeds they intend to SOW this
spring, then procure samples
and forward to the Station.
Such samples should contain fol-
grass and similar field seeds
about 2 CO.; for tobacco and
most garden seeds / OF.
A complete test of clover seed
requires about one week; most
other seeds require two weeks
The postage on seeds must be
prepaid and costs cent pei
ounce. A letter of advice should
be sent, giving name Of sender,
name of seller, and price paid
for the seed. The Station ad.
yises, always, its friends thai
the best quality of seeds is, as 9
rule, the cheapest. Mark all

summer Tal1owinc.

Angus Mckay of the experimental
farm at Indian Head, Manitoba, urgently
recommends summer-fallowing the rich
prairie lands of the Northwest for wheat.
The reasons he gives for this practice are
clear and convincing, and are as follows
" We fallow for one reason, and that is
that by doing so sufficient moistere is
stored up and retained in the soil to
overcome a few dry days or weeks the
following year when our crops are grow
ing. Experience has shown that in the
Northwest, where the rainfall is very
uncertain, something more has to be
done to withstand a hot July than to
turn over stubble in the fall and SOW
next spring. No matter how we'll the
work is done or how carefully the seed is
sown, one or two hot days in July may
and often do entirely ruin the crop. |
need not point to 1889 or other years pre-
ceding this as evidence. Neither will any
amount of work in spring blowing avail
if the season is dry. While spring plow-
ing is more sure than fall blowing, yet a
settler is risking his whole years work
on an uncertainty if he follows and re-
lies on either of the two ways just men
toned. Now it is equally certain that if
land is worked the preceding year in a
certain time of the year and worked
properly, when the crop requires more
moisture than it can get from the clouds
it either has it stored up or secures it
from the atmosphere.
The Kootenai herald. [volume] (Kootenai, Idaho) 1891-1904, 1891-10-17

Robert Maxwell of Arkland, Scotland,
says the Northwest Farmer, wrote 1874
years ago the following practical advice
on killing weeds: Concerning the in
field the more you dung it the more the
weeds will grow. 1t never will be other
wise till the seeds or the greater part of
them are killed, for they will grow the
more readily and vigorously the more
the ground be dunged. We know no
better way of getting quit of them than
by encouraging their seeds to vegetate
and then destroy them, as they will in
part dung the ground. Sure killing Of
the weeds is the chief thing aimed at
harrow thoroughly Immediately after
every blowing. The fine mold will ex-
cite their small seeds to grow the
smaller it is made the better it will an
swer the purpose. Early in the spring
harrow fine to encourage more seeds of
weeds to grow.

A Few Things Farmers
Should Avoid.
WHEN TO PRUNE APPLE TREES
Mr. Mckay of Manitoba Recommends
Summer Following Rich
Prairie Lands.

Don't breed that old broken-down
mare. 1t won't pay, but will be an in
jury to the breeding industry.
Don't expect an old WORKOUT horse to
do as much work as young and sound
animal.
Don't use heavy harness. Light ones
properly made of good leather are
stronger and last longer, while being
easier on the horse.
Don't overload the team. IT is better
to make two trips than to strain the
horses or get them in the habit Of balk-
ing.
Don't feed corn or cornmeal to the
horses during hot weather. Corn is too
heating.
Don't spare the oats. The well-fed
horse stands up under constant work
when the underfed falters.
Don't imagine that when you water
your horses three times day you have
done all that nature demands.
Don't let the horses eat too much green
grass. A little while in the pastures
after days work will do them good, but
too much green food will work injury
and cause the horses to sweat easily at
work.
Don'trun down your neighbors' horses.
Praise them when you can, and when
you cannot, say nothing.
Don't think because your neighbor has
bought stallion that he has been neces-
sarily cheated and has bought failure.
Give the horse a chance to show by his
progeny what he is.
Don't let the stallion stand idle in the
barn. Make him work, for it will add to
his potency and help pay for his food.
Don't throw away the curry comb now
that farm work is rushing. 1t is needed
more now than it was last winter.
Don't forget that box stall is much
better than narrow one for the horses,
especially when they have worked hard
all day. You like wide bed so does a
horse.
Don't neglect the colts in the pastures.
Round them up each evening and make
sure that none have been injured during
the day. A slight injury attended to at
once may prevent permanent defect.
Leaving the youngsters to look after
themselves is bad policy.
