There is another species of bondage
under which the master does no,
feed and clothe his servants. but
rather deprives them of food and
raiment. Mr.. President, l refer to
the bondage of those colossal rail
road corporations and trusts that
are sapping the lifeblood from
every industry from the Atlantic to
the Pacific. Under the regime OF
slavery the strong arm Of the ma.
ton was invoked, and the poor,
fleeing fugitive was hunted down
and returned to the lash; under the
new. regime the vaults of the
national Treasury have been
opened and the tribute of honest,
trusting toll has been diverted to
forge the chains that are soon to
make US nation of slaves.
Mr.. President, if you should con-
clude to take trip to San Fran
cisco, as l take the liberty Of advis-
ing you to do after Congress adj
journs in March, you will arrive at
the Oakland pier early in the mora,
and stepping aboard the powerful
ferryboat you will soon be out on
the harbor, where the morning
breeze will bear to your delighted
nostrils the fragrance of orange
blossoms from the orchards in the
south. Az you stand in rapture
and in awe admiring the beautiful
panorama which is passing before
you, your gaze will be attracted to
the oriental magnificence and splen-
dor Of the effect Of the rising sun
upon the abodes of humble but |
virtuous poverty on "Knob HILL"
It will repay you, Mr.. President,
later in the day to take a closer !
ook at those modest residences.
There you will see the effects of
careful investment of Government
unds; you will admire the beautiful
granite brought from the banks a nd

The best temperature to separate milk
by centrifugal force in summer is rs dogs.
Fab. If the milk is too warm, the butter
will be salvy; rs dogs. to so degs will do
in winter.
Cream should be cooled as soon as
possible after it leaves the separator to
60 degs. TO 02 degs. In winter this haste
is not so essential, If the cream is sur
rounded by water. If not cooled, the
butter will be soft and off flavor.
The proper temperature to churn
cream in summer is So dogs. to 81 dogs,
and in winter so degs. to 60 dogs. If
churned too warm It is liable to mass in

Rich milk is required, because the
cream must be thick. Set the milk four
inches deep in pans. When the cream is
half risen place the pans carefully on top
of the stove, not too hot, and warm the
milk until the surface "crinkles." Set
the pans away again, and in twenty-four
hours the cream is all risen in thick,
adherent sheet, which can be rolled off
whole. Place this in tin mods, bottom
less, set on folded cloth, which absorbs
the liquid, but, better, on straw mats
placed on the cloth; in twelve hours the
molds with the cheese may be turned
over, and in twelve hours more the
cheeses are solid enough to stand with
out the molds and ready for sale or use.

Ground BIoles.

These depredators are difficult to ex-
terminate. Two methods appear TO The
Country Gentleman to have been sue
cessful. One is the use of efficient traps,
the best Of which we cannot point out,
having never used all the different kinds,
but whatever one is used must be ac-
Companied with close and continued OBJ
servalion. The other is repelling them
with burning fumes, produced by ignit-
ing a long strip of brown paper which
has been soaked in strong solution or
mixture Of finely ground red pepper and
inter, and when dry thrusting them,
while burning, into their burrows, the
opening being closed. This repels them
The mixture must be as strong as prac-
ticable Strychnine is recommended,
but its taste is repulsive and it does not
answer. Arsenic is better used inside
of small pills made of sweet corn, which
are dropped into the burrows. The
whole pill will be devoured at once, the
poison being well concealed by thrusting
it into the pill with the point Of knife.
But many persons object to the use Of
all posons on account of danger to do
nestle animals, especially to dogs, which
are fond of investigating and scratching
the tracks of mice and moles.

LIME ON THE FARM.
The Action of Limo ON tho Soil When
Ussd Aisue or with Othsy Materials.


a wide diversity Of opinion exists
touching the action of lime either APP
Piled by itself to the land or in connec-
ton with ashes, hen manure or chemi-
Gals AS most soils are tolerably well
supplied with it, it is evident that an ad.
ditioaal quantity is not needed as a
direct plant food. And yet it is well
known that crops on such soil are at once
and for several years, it may be, largely
increased by the addition of lime or
plaster Rural New Yorker has the fol-
lowing to say in connection with this
subject:
Indirectly, lime may increase fertility
in several ways. 1t may lessen the
closeness, adhesiveness or Elasticity of
clay land, rendering it more mellow and
porous. 1t is known that clay soil may
contain all the elements Of plant food,
and in larger quantity than a loamy soil,
and yet be far less fertile, owing to its
imporosity. Again, Heiden has shown
that lime may unite with the silicates in
the soil, so as to set free magnesia, pot
ash and ammonia, though gypsum for
this purpose is deemed more effective.
Caustic lime may also decompose humus
and release various nitrogen compounds,
an effect, as Storer remarks, which is
probably one of the most important of
of those produced by it. Experiments
by Warrington show that the nitric
ferment thrives best where there is an
excess Of lime carbonate. Professor
Voelcker has said that on soils destitute of
lime most crops are subject to disease,
and root crops especially are apt to
fail entirely. even though literally ma
nured with dung or guano. The cure for
such failures, which are common enough
where poor, sandy soils prevails, is a
good dose of lime, and then manure may
be applied TO the best advantage. The
most liberal application of farm manure
never produces SO beneficial and lasting
an effect on poor, sandy soils as when
they have been previously well lined.
Lining land is known TO improve
"sour" soils by neutralizing their acidity.
1t induces fermentation in organic mat
ters, and, as Storer says, it is probably
this tendency to destroy organic matter
that makes the too frequent use of lime
pernicious and justifies the old saying,
Lime enriches the father and beggars
the SON." Many a field, it may be wisely
concluded. has been rendered absolutely
sterile by the continued use of lime, be-
cause the entire available supply of
nitrogen, potash and phosphate has been
exhausted. Let us not forget, says Pro-
fessor Storer, that all evidence teaches
that lime is no substitute for manure; it
is mere addition or reinforcement
which may occasionally be employed
with advantage.

THE PATRICK MILK TEST.
Its Inventor Offers 1t to tho People
Without Patent.

Its Inventor Offers 1t to tho People
without O Patent.
The Iowa station milk test was repre-
seated BY Prof. p&tiiclr, supervising tests,
assisted by State Dairy Commissioner
Upper ana G. w. Wait, the latter being
assistant chemist of the laboratory at the
experimental station. To Mr.. Patrick
Is dae the invention OF the first accurate
milk test in Iowa, which was placed on
exhibition at Des Moines in 1880. The
original purpose was to furnish an accu-
rate test for farmers use In testing their
COVE, but the necessity for such an ap-
parstus in creameries has caused de-
mand for increased capacity.
We believe the present mode, as ex-
hibited at the state fair this fall, will do
away with the great objection raised to
1t formerly, rs it increases the capacity
materially. A coil Of steam pipe is
placed in the bottom Of an oblong box
lined with zinc and filled with brine,
connected with a similar box filled with
water Since the introduction of the
brine bath into the oblong boxes with
the steam pipes at the bottom, the opera
tor can commence measuring the milk
into the tubes, then adding the acid, and
after shaking the two together can place
twelve tubes in each rack, thereby plac-
ing the first filed tubes into boiling
brine. You can then fill the second rack
with tubes. Place the second rack in
beside the third.
When the rack is filed the first one
will be ready to place into the water
bath at 40 degs., and by the time the
fourth rack is filled the tubes in the first
are ready to read. This expedites mat
tiers considerably, the operator being
constantly filling and reading the tests
Professor Patrick's vigorous and con-
scientious work deserves special praise
He refuses to take any interest in the
test commercially, but works unseltishly
in behalf of the state, which is fortunate
in securing so able and honorable man
to serve it.-Creamery Journal.

How to Catch q Fowl.

Few persons know how to secure a
fowl to advantage. Never seize fowl
by the tail, if fine bird, nor touch the
back, but grasp both legs at once with a
firm, tight, quick hold, and then raise
free from the ground or perch and hang
the body down clear of any obstacle.
This method does not ruffle the plumage
or turn a feather, which in a fine bird
must Ue avoided. When the web of the
feathers is once broken it can never be
united again, and where much handled
this often occurs, giving to the bird a
ragged appearance. 1t is the source of
much annoyance to nice, clean, smooth
bird to have the plumage rufled. Their
bodily covering ID regarded with the ut
most care, and the luster and beauty of
it indicate the health and strength of
the fowl. -Kansas Farmer.

Mexican parents being enthusiastic over

i've years have wrought a wonderful
revolution in our neighbor, and to-day New
Mexico stands forth proud aud vigorous
commonwealth, ambitious and progressive,
rich in natural resources which are being
rapidly developed, and all the people keen
for the local self government which is SO
dear TO the American heart.
The only obstacle to prompt admission to
the union is the politics of the people, the
territory being Democratic whereas the
Washington administration and the upper
house OF Congress are Republican. How
ever. it is hoped and believed there are fair
mon among the Republican Senators who
will unite with the Democrats in emanoi-
pating the territory. The Senators from
Colorado, Idaho. Wyoming, Montana and
Washington all know how cruel and un-
American it is to compel people to live
under territorial government and they
should therefore be brave enough to defy
the party and do justice to dependency
which has been held down too long.
A census bulletin just issued shows the
population of New Mexico, in 1890, was

having population OF more than 9, 900 each,

THE CIVIL SERVICE.

A case of violation Of the civil service
act under the present administration has
just been determined, on the pleadings, in
the United States supreme court. 1t in
volved the constitutions atty of the pro-
hibition of federal officers from soliciting
or being assessed for political purposes,
and the court has emphatically sustained
the law. BY this decision employees OF
the government who hold their situations
under the civil service statute cannot be
bulldozed or hectored by politicians into
voting one way or another, but may exer-
else their own Judgment freely.
TIE HERALD anticipates that much good
will result from the decision in the presi.
dental election Of next year. ''Pernicious
activity" in political matters, to use ex-
Postmaster Villas expression,
has been the bane of the public service, 1t
has been more frequently exerted as be-
tween factions of one party towards an
other, than against the opposition party
in primaries more than in the general
elections.
The true principle of the civil service is
that the performance of official duties be
longs to the whole people, and not to any
partisan division OF them especially. The
public money, which is collected without
regard to politics, pays them their salaries,
and their services ought to be returned in
the same way. As the officials must serve
the public whichever way the ele tions go,
it behooves them, in their representative
capacity, to avoid all forms of dictation.
Individually, they are entitled to their vote
and influence if untrammeled; but they are
not paid to do other peoples thinking.
