The Helena independent. [volume] (Helena, Mont.) 1875-1943, 1891-07-07

IT is not a matter of surprise that the
national treasury is empty, but rather
that the credit of the country has not
been seriously impaired. Recklessness
s. begotten by extravaganza, and the
effect of the billion dollar appropriations
of the republican congress must give
monied men serious concern. 1t is a
vicious precedent, from which projectors
of many other schemes for securing
none from the national treasury will
take courage, and their plans will be
boldly advocated and urged by the eff
fective agents and methods of the lobby.
The senate and house Of representatives
are occupying themselves less, year by
year, with the affairs of the nation and
more with the affairs of individuals. the
danger of which was recently so we'll set
forth by Mr.. Cleveland. The list of fed
eral beneticiaries is rapidly growing, and
new claimants for bonuses are coming to
the front with great b~razennes and per
%sistency. The machinery OF the gov
eminent is becoming cumbersome and
un~manageable, federal oiliceholders are
multiplying and the whole theory of
government being revolutionized. Those
facts must inevitably result in impaired
financial credit, and the shifting de
vices of an expert mathematician to
conceal the emptiness of the treasury
will not avail. Troublous tunes must
come unless a halt is called, and that
soon.

THERE may be significance in the avowed policy of the Government to keep the new cruisers near home. They will be within call in case they are need- ed. There has been some talk of the necessity of our being well represented by a naval force at Honolulu. With a ca ble to the islands we could call home any ships stationed there at short mo- tice. These things hang together. If the Republicans had majority in the newly elected House of Representatives there might be show of providing for a cable next year, but little in the in- terest of the country can be expected from the Democrats.

Cabbage Culture.

OF all truck vegetables early and
late cabbages probably stand first for
profitableness and ease of cultivation.
The cabbage is almost sure to succeed
on heavy sandy loan, and if it is well
fed it will be tender, sweet and early.
The market gardeners near large cities
raise it by the ton, and they are the
heaviest fertilizers of any class of
farmers. Their soil, which is very
valuable, is saturated with manure,
and every succeeding season vast guam
titles are spread over the already rich
ground. This is really the secret of
their success. 1t is a common thing
for them to apply from seventy to 100
tons of manure to the acre. and as a
result each acre yields from 5000 TO
II, 900 heads of cabbage. With such
heavy manuring it would seem that
vegetable raising could not be made
profitable, even though enormous
yields per acre are obtained. 1t could
not be made very remunerative proba-
bly, for farmers living any distance
from the city, but there are two or
three things of great advantage TO
these market gardeners.
