Cultivating Hillsides.

How to pillow hilsides so that they will
receive the least injury from washing as
the result Of cultivation Is question on
which various opinions have been express
ed, with no uniform practice prevailing.
Some advise blowing horlz tally across
the face of the hill so that the rainfall, In.
stead of running off in burrows made by
blowing up and down the hill, will be
somewhat obstructed in its course, and its
absorption by the soil where it has fallen
will be favored. 1t is also sometimes ad
vised to made deep burrows or bitches at
intervals on the face Of cultivated hillside
to more Lertectly intercept the course of
the rain water and hold it until il is mostly
absorbed by the soil. From the nature of
the case both of these plans are liable to
the serious objection of making the matter
worse rather han better, for it will be
found impossible to dam heavy showers in
that way; and an overflow would be certain
10 occur, the effect of which would be to
concentrate the water into few channels
and prove more damaging than when
more generally distributed. An Ohio far
mer with a lengthy experience in rather
billy region is On record as saying that
where hiIlsides NUT be cultivated ne EN-.
phatically dissents from writer's who rec
ommend the making Of rows of any crop
parallel with the course of the hill, and
that it is far Letter TO pillow so that each
little ditch will carry the small amount of
water falling within it's valley. Some
washing will occur, but many small
streams do not occasion as much injury as
few large ones.-N. 7. World.

''Ah, WELL" she continued. Il suppose that

bland smile.

Miss Darrell.
Lady Hampton laughed again. She nod

But Pauline Darrell did not move: her dark

"You are going TO spoil my life" she said.
''HithertO it has been a glorious life-free,

''Who is the better or the happier for being

Miss Hastings was silent for some few

1t Did Not Close Up.

When a protected industry threat
ems 10 close up business at the old
stand and go to the land where the
woodbine twineth if you cut down
its protective duties, it is generally
safe to assume that such an indus
try is playing big game of bluff.
If you are plain spoken you may
even say that somebody is lying.
Here is case:
When it was proposed last year to
make slight reduction in the binder
twine duty, the Irvine men signed a
paper and sent it in hot haste to
Washington, saying that if the pro-
posed duty should be adopted they
would be compelled to shut down
their mills. Their alarm was still
greater when fifteen northwestern
Republican senators united with the
Democrats and voted to put Irvine
on the free list.
After a great amount of lobbying
by the trust and certain Republican
politicians, backed up by leading
high tariff journals with profuse and
and picturesque abuse of men who
had voted for free Irvine, a part of
the duty was saved. The old duty on
manila Irvine was p cents pound,
and on sisal Irvine 81 cents. The
trust succeeded in saving ITO of l
cent from the wicked Democrats and
northwestern Republican senators.
This duty was less than one third
of the duty which the trust had
said would close up it works.
Now, what is the result? The
farmers are buying their twine this
year at much lower prices than last
year; and is the trust meanwhile
shutting up its mills2 On the con
trary, it has just been announced by
high tariff organ that the trust has
bought the eight cordage works of
Canada for 100000
