A Portland merchant, speaking in
the Telegram about the discrimiDa-
tion in sugar rates to that city, says:
THE reason / suppose to be this:
The refinery people are endeavoring
to locate the biggest part of their
trade in the Washington towns at
the expense of Portland. They have
large refinery in the East, and it
may be they can ship from there at
lower rate, owing to the railroad
facilities"

 Oak timber loses about one-fifth of its weight in seasoning and about one third of its weight in becoming dry Gradual drying and seasoning are considered the most favorable to the durability and strength of timber Kiln drying is par ticularly serviceable for boards and pieces of small dimensions and unless performed slowly is apt to cause cracks and impair the strength of the wood. If timber of large dimensions be immersed in water for some weeks, it is improved, and is less liable to warp and crack in seasoning.

WE ARE the greatest travellers in the world, and the hooks and corners of England and of the continent are full of these people who go abroad for the rest the amusement the instruc- tion they receive, just as we run about within the country from city to city. When these citizens of ours arc culti- vated people as is generally the case. they pass unnoticed in the throng. Only occasionally. by the display of some unmistakable national peculiari- ty. are they recognized as Americans; and such recognition Is only another personal illustration of our good breeding and intelligence as a people. Since. however. this class of travellers are the most unobtrusive of people, and are enjoying themselves in quiet way, they are very seldom credited to America, which has obtained abroad such common reputation for rude ness and loudness and oddness of one sort or another that we'll behaved person is acquitted. by that fact of kinship with us.

4 Dog Trap.


 Letters are often being received s' this office asking how the present statute relates to sheep killing dogs tho question being asked if a flock master is justified in destroying dogs prowling around his premises In spite of legislation. sheep worrying continues as briskly as ever, and gem erally by half starved brutes whose owners know nothing and care less as to their whereabouts. This scourge is likely to continue to initiate against a most profitable department in stock keeping. The Southern Planter gives a good plan of trap that answers the purpose of holding the stray dog when he makes his visits in search ot meals that he fails to get at home. Ana those who value the well being of thelr decks can gain point by the advice thus riven. The correspondent in the journal alluded to advises the building of a pen six feet square at the top In order to allew sides to slant so that the dog can easily mount to the top. The sides having been smeared with broiled meat same of which is placed inside, the dog climbs up the outside and jumps down but is unable to get out and is held as prisoner until shot or released, as the attendant Of the trap sees fit This plan has the advantage over poison. which is al, ways more or less unsafe to use anu is far in advance of the shotgun, as the trap is always ready, set night and day. to receive the first trespass- ing dog.

Clover and Commerci ,l Fertilizers.


 The question of maintaining fertility is one appropriate at all times It is generally admitted that clover is the cheapest and most effective renovator of the soil that we have. Yet clover may be considered an uncertain crop. We speak about splendid catch which seems to imply good luck or a happy chance. With a great many farmers there is great deal of chance in getting a set to clover. Can any thing be done to make this matter surer or increase the chances of hay ing splendid catch" every time? think a judicious use of commercial fertilizers will bring about this end.
 There is a suspicion by many in re- gard to these fertilizers. They are thought to injure the soil after few applications, and some affirm that when farmer begins their use he must continue the application forever more, just like man who learns to eat oysters-he wants more oysters as long as he lives. I am sure 1 do not know whether commercial fertilizers if used exclusively and with no rota- tion of crops would injure the ground or not, but do believe that if We have l the right kind of clover crop on the land every few years, it will be many generations before such land will be- come exhausted. For such land as we find in the greater part of Ohio, 1 think 1t is well to confine clover and commercial fertilizers so that a heavy growth of the former is assured. l take delight in showing skeptical farmers the heavy swath of clover that follows the application of this fertil- l izer and have them predict the date when such land will be burnt out Nothing seems to be better adapted | for this purpose than bone meal By | applying to the ground when wheat is sown, previous to sowing clover, d | heavy crop of wheat is assured. and
 being less available than the quick
 acting phosphates. a considerable DOT | tion of the plant food is not absorbed
 until the clover is largo enough 10 feed
 upon it This gives the clover a strong start and tides it through win
 ter. By this time 1t is able to care tor itself which it will do to your entire satisfaction if you do not pasture it too closely. Any one can safely use com mercial fertilizers in this way Ohio | Farmer.

Then and Now.

The young farmer of to-day, who has been brought up on the farm, and who is one of the best of his neighbor- hood. is supposed to know all of the details of the farm, and how to do any and all kinds of farm work. He is an expert and always has his work well along and in the very best condition
 yet there are many things to be done upon the farm about which he knows nothing for he has never had an op- portunity to learn. You ask him if he is versed in all the details of the farm? Yes: he understands all of them and the very best way of performing them. Can you cradle the opening swatb oi the grain preparatory to taking in the binder9 Oh. no.

As A rule, students in the academies

As Arule. students in the academical department of American institu tions are considerably younger than those in the professional schools, and there is n theory that they cannot safely be exposed te the temptations of large city. The theory is not borne out by the experience of Edinburgh and Glas- gow. Nor do we ourselves consider a young man much more ironclad against such dangers at the age of P than at the age of IS. But it may be that a small town is moro likely to generate an academical atmosphere, to invite to studious musing. and to evolve the still air of delightful studies of which the poets sing. Nor ara we disposed to deny that the study of divinity, as well as of the ltter9 humaniores and the higher mathematics. may be car- ried on more sympathetically and ef- fectively in a country or suburban town than amid the distractions and tumult of great capital.

THE bicyclist is wandering advo- cate of better city pavements and bet ter country roads Already he has made his influence felt for good in many communities. As the number of bicycles multiplies throughout the country and the man in the kuee- brooches becomes aware of his in- auence. the wheel will be recognizep as powerful engine of reform. For many years the people of this nation have contented themselves with wretohed highways the farmers be- cause they feared heavy taxation for improvements. and the other classes of citizens because they sympathized with the farmers It is beginning to be understood. however that the farmers fears are not well founded; in fact. that they sustain enormous losses as the direct result of bad roads.

IF one should set out to hunt for the original and conceiving source of
 many of our statues he would find himself when he reached it in the midst of very dubious motives, from which the impulse to render honor to de- serving memory or to increase the ar tistic adornment of streets and places was very far removed. If an obscure sculptor. with only the ambition to get his name before the public. has a friend who can push his model of some more or less noticeable man, on the understanding that the artist furnishes his great and talented services for nothing, the chances are high of such disinterested project materializing finally in some public place as the im- age of a citizen commemorated in bronze under an ostensibly grateful uprising of his former associates

THE FARM AND HOME.
VARIOUS WAYS OF INDUCING
 HENS TO LAY.
Room, Light and Proper Food Necessary -value of Commercial Fertilizers and Ciover-Farm Notes
 Home Hints.
Making the Hens r.ar.


 One of tho greatest drawbacks s cramped room, says Q writer in the American Cultivator. The hen that is cramped up in D small space with others will nearly double her numbers of eggs when given more freedom. Too many oyerstock their grounds. Starting out with limited amount Of land. they continue to increase their stock until the hens become uncom- tortably cramped. Give them more freedom and room. and a less number will lay just as many eggs. Kill of the poorest layers. and the others will increase their products proportion ately.
 One must be an enthusiastic lover of birds to make success in poultry. The hens are only domesticated up to certain point and they still hold close afflnities to their original wild state. They love to get out into the wild country, and roam about in the fields and woods and work for their living. One must study the habits and needs of the hens If he or she would make them do their best In lay ing. If tho hens arc uncomfortable they cannot do their best.
 Light and room are essential-more 60 in the summer than iu the winter. Heat closeness and darkness breed diseases in hot weather. They reduce the vitality of the hens. and conse- quently their laying capacity. Let them have plenty of both if they are expected to lay more eggs. Fowls lacking for room, light and heat suffer more from colds and rheumatism than any others and all through the sum mer they will be sneezing with colds, while they suffer from the heat at the same time.
 Proper food and water according to the season must be given to them. During hot weather they do not need heating food so much as worms fruits berries and green leaves and grass. Cool, fresh water must be supplied to keep their spomachs washed out. Too many have the same diet for their fowls in summer and winter never taking the trouble to change it. The hens return this treatment by giving the same number of eggs in the two taking of course the low win ter number as the standard to go by. Give them more of the green leaves and ripe fruits and they will do better in laying: Dggs in summer than Il with stuffed heating food.
 Another point is cleanliness. The hens surroundings must be clean pr she cannot be clean. Uncleanliness means discomfort and disease. Lice and other vermin irritate the hen and reduce her strength, and consequent ly less number of eggs is laid. See that the poultry yard and houses are cleaned out not occasionally but often and regularly.

ENGLAND, to a degree which Ameri- cans can scarcely imagine is annoyed, vexed and cursed by the fundamental injustice and unnaturalness of its en- tailed state-churchism. The popular irritation caused by it is constant and is evidently increasing. There is no one form of religion that Is common to the people Why should the state pour out its millions every year into the lap of one of the scots and only turn the cold shoulder to all other re- ligious organizations? Why should John Bull extend all his favors to the so-called 'cstablished' church and give none to any of the rest' The fact that this still continues to be done grows only more and more fa- grant-more and moro exasperating.
