SENATE

The committee on printing recommended
the indefinite postponement of the resolu-
ton of Senator Leavitt providing for the
asking Of bids for the printing of the session
laws. This report was signed by Senators
Craven, Day and Eaton Senators Hompe
and Crate dissented from the report.
The afternoon session Of the senate,
though spent entirely in the consideration
OF general orders. was productive Of not
little interesting debate and action. Most
OF the time was spent on Senator Hompe's
bill entitled IAN act to prevent abuses Of
the right OF the liberty of the press, but
which Senator Crandall, in his remarks,
styled "a blow at the liberty of the press
The bill as introduced provided that al ar
tlcles and items Of whatever nature which
appeared in any newspaper should be
signed by the writer
excepting from the provisions of the bill
all articles not rejecting upon any ones
character
Senator Lienau was about the only one
who voted against the bill. It was almost
unanimously recommended for passage.
.,<-'-. HOUSE.
There were several important bills con-
sidered in the house yesterday among the
number being Mr.. Tripps bill to prevent
corrupt practices at elections, the bill re-
latinG to foreclosures of chattel mortgages
and the worlds fair appropriation bill.
This latter bill provided Tor a $10O, 600 ap-
preparation, but it was cut down in COM
mittee of the whole to $75, OOO The major
part OF the morning session was devoted to
considering the reports OF committees, a
number OF bills being reported back to the
house.
Gov. Merrianls veto of the Pickerel lake
bill was taken up, and by very large ma
jority the house sustained the veto.
A number Of senate bills were given their
first reading, among them being S. r. 500,
Senator Hompe's railroad bill. Mr.. Searle
moved that the rules be suspended and the
bill referred to the committee of the whole.
Mr.. Cqrrier objected to this, and held that
the bill should take its regular course and
be referred to the railroad committee
There not being sufficient members present
to suspend the rules the bill was referred
to the railroad committee in the usual way
was next taken up and discussed at some
length. The bill provides for an appropri-
alton OF 100000 for the purpose of making
Minnesota state exhibit. On the motion
OF Mr. Bell it was amended so as to provide
tor the turning into the state treasury of all
proceeds from any sale Of the exhibits.
Mr.. Bjorge said he believed $50 600 was
as much as the state could afford at this
time Ii more was to be appropriated the
money would have to be found.
A vote OF Mr.. Feigs amendment was
taken, and it was carried by 48 in the at
hrmative and 43 in the negative.
The bill as amended was then recon-
mended to pass by a vote OF 4S to 43.

Senator John Day Smith reSurrected the
senatorial contest OF two years ago next
when he arose to make his report as CHAIR
man of the committee appointed to inves-
tigate how the testimony of ex-senator
Sabn, taken by bribery investigating COM
Nltlee two years ago, came to be omitted
from the printed report. This report re-
cited the testimony taken, which was OBJ
tanned from Prof. Bowers, of MINI polls,
and drew no conclusions as to it's Omis-
sions. 1t was then ordered that the testi-
nony of Senator Sabin be printed and
pasted into the copies alreadyaprinted.
Senator March's grain and warehouse bill
was the first measure brought up and it at
once became the subject ola hot debate and
was finally Indefinitely postponed.

was introduced by the same gentleman, pro-
yiding for liens for livery stable keepers in
certain cases, was referred back to the
author, and then the senate adjourned I'M
til 10 clock Monday morning.
HOUSE.
The senate joint resolution, expunging
the impeachment proceedings against E. st.
Julien Cox, came up in the house. Mr..
Turreil of Redwood explained the resolu-
ton. Mr.. Cox was the Judge in his district
at the time when he laid himself liable to
the charge Of mpeachment-the Judge was
impeached for drunkenness. The Judge
had been sufficiently punished and these
impeachment proceedings should be strick

Mr.. Lynn moved the adoption of the res

Kerosene should be used cautiously

IS very irritating IN many cases, as
animals, like individuals, differ.
Old scotland, if ploughed during the
winter, will be benefited by the effects
OF the frosts, and the insects that, in

Cut straw for bedding saves labor
when it is added to the manure heap,
as 1t decomposes quickly and is easily
handled when hauling out the manure.

Farmers who study their soils are
the true agriculturists. They watch

to the hot bed which many times can
be done after most Of the cabbage and

Care Of a Horses Hoof,

When a horses hoof becomes, brit
tie. soak thefoot for an hour in water
as warm as the hand can be held in
without being burned, then, having
dried it, put on a poultice OF glycerine
four ounces and linseed or oil meal,
one quart, with sufficient hot watert to
make a poultice. Repeat this often
enough to- keep the hoof naturally
moist and pliable. Rub the coronets,
the space just at the top OF the hoof
with the following liniment, daily:
Camphorated soap liniment, seven
ounces, and water OF ammonia one
ounce, keeping the bottle we'll corked.
The most important part of these
cases is careful shoeing. Frog pres
sure, got by a bar shoe or otherwise,
is imperative. A horse with brittle
hoof should never be given fast work,
but. he should have regular exercise.
Complete and permanent cure isdoubt-
full.

SENATE.
Senator Day gave notice that he should
introduce q resolution providing for the
cleaning OF the windows of the senate
chamber if they did not have an improved
appearance by the succeeding morning.

signs that they would heartily support the
resolution, and the janitors will doubtless
act upon the hint 7@~f
The senate entered upon reports of COM
1nittees and the passage of local bills.
Among the first measures passed was the
Duluth annexation compromise bill, which
had already passed the house. There is now

Potato Culture.

The only true criterion OF any meth
Cd OF successful potato culture is the
test of several years including one or
two bad years. The soil may be of
any kind but it must be fine and in
good filth. Do not follow potatoes
with corn. Some think sod best for
potatoes. Put your corn ON the sod
then follow with potatoes The first.
cultivation of the potato is the main,

Draft Horses.

~ : g
This class OF horses IS still on top
. Large, active young horses well brok
en- to drive are bringing good prices,
even underline influences Of depression
" hen you hear persons say there is
getting to be too many heavy horses
IN the country, the draft horse bust
ness will soon be overdone," YOU can
set 1t down that such persons do not
know what they are talking about.
How often in years gone by have we
heard just such salk. These same fell
lows have been forced to fall
IN Line and breed draft horses,
simply because. the demand for
draft horses is constantly on the
increase and the prices they command
are remunerative, while the breeder
OF the so-called ssall-purposev horse
could scarcely find buyer for his
surplus stock. Farmers, should sup
ply what the market demandsin horses,
as well as all other prduce of the farm.
There must be demand for heavy
teams, and this demand will increare.
The farmer that starts in now to
breeding good, active, heavy horses
will be a year ahead ofthe farmer who
starts in next year. The sameiliustra-
ton OF the loss OF time may be more
fully realized by looking forward to
those men who started ten years. ago

Glover as a Weed Exterminator,
Among its other excellent qualities
as an agricultural plant it is a com
mon experience. among farmers that
clover is one OF the best extermina-
tors Of weeds. Air and sunshine are
as necessary for the life OF weeds as
they are for cultivated plants, and
when growing together, if one is thrifty
enough to outgrow and overshadow
the other, if not disturbed, it eventual
ly takes possession Of the ground
So where clover is thiclly sown on
ground naturally weedy the two year
~ mowings and the shade will prove
too much for nearly all varities OF
weeds, and when the ground is plough
ed for a different crop it will not only
be enriched from the clover, but it will
be comparatively free from weeds
But it must not beforgotten that land
may be SO unfertile that clover cam
not be grown upon it without first
manuring it and putting the soil into
suitable condition for receiving the
seed, while great many weeds have
the faculty OF growing on very poor
land without any fertilizer whatever.

Barley forHogs.

In a hog fattening experiment at the
Wisconsin experiment. station it was
found that barley meal required more
water to properly soak it and make
it palatable to the hogs than did corn
meal. Each pound OF meal required
three pounds OF water, while the corn
meal was as well soKed with two
pounds AS the hogs fed on barley ate
about ten pounds of meal each, daily,
they consumed fully 80 pounds OF
water Herewith; while the cornmeal
hogs consumed only 20 pounds of
water with II pounds of corn meal
each. Even with this amount OF wa
ter in the feed, the barley hogs drank
two pounds of water daily from separ-
ate troughs, while the cornmeal hogs
drank but three-fourths Of a pound,
daily, on the average. The total
result of these experiments led to the
conclusion that barley meal was very
satisfactory feed for hogs, whether
growing OF tattening, though the ami.
mails did not make quite as good a
gain In either case as did those fed on
corn meal. In both trials it required
about 8 per cent more barley; by
weight, than corn meal to make 100
pounds of gain. Remembering this
difference breeders can calculate close
sly the price they can afford to pay for
barley. In concluding his report on
these experime hts Prof Henry strong
" urges the farmer to throw away all
prejudice against barley for feeding
hogs and other stock. If those who
raise this grain will do so and study
how to feed it to get the best results
they will be less at the mercy of the
grain buyers, who perhaps, would
prefer to have the idea continue that
barley is poison to hogs, which is a
belief without the least foundation.
