IT was an interesting meeting which
the agriculturists-> Aeld-on Tuesday in
Washington, and many valuable papers
were read. But the practical, common
sense farmer is hardly likely to accept
without much discussion and confrma-
tory experiment the dictum that fertil-
izers act by changing the mechanical con-
ditiOn of the soil rather than by supply
ing plant food No doubt the mechan-
ical condition of the soil which is brought
about by farm operations and by the adj
dition to the soil Of various ingredients
plays an important part in promoting fer
tility; but 90 farmer will be in a hurry
to lose faith in nitrogen potash, and phos-
phorus as plant foods in obedience to the
new theory just promulgated.

An Important Omission.


Mrs. Williams had never been satisfied
with the arrangement of her old house.
and so, when her husband proposed to
build a new one she said she would like to
draw the plans: then she should be sure
that she would have enough closets and
other conveniences
Mr.. Williams said, Certainly, my dear,
You draw the plans, and then you can
have Jones look them over and see thai
they are practicable
'.of course they'll be practicable. and ii
will be only a matter of form for Mr..
Jones to pass approval on them said his
wife confidently.
The plans were made and remade, al
tered and realtered, until at last they gave
Mrs. Williams perfect satisfaction. There
were enormous closets at every turn, and
open fireplaces wherever there was a
chance for one, and with a sigh of relief
she started for Mr.. Jones office.
When she displayed the plan of the first
floor she was much gratified at the Archi-
tect's evident approval, and although he
seemed on the point of asking some ques-
ton once or twice he did not do so, and in
triumph she spread ont the plan of the
second floor.
''whst do you think of thatr' she
asked in the tone of one assured OF
pleasant answer.
Charming, my dear madam, charm
ing" said the suave Mr.. Jones: "but-ah
-oh-how do You propose TO reach the
second floor, may ask
oh" said Mrs Williams with a horri-
fed gasp, Il forgot all about that: there's
no place for any stairs"

A NEEDED REFORM.

Reforms often find welcome in Massa-
chusetts. The governor of that state has
sent to the legislature message advo-
eating the Australian system of register
ing deeds. Under this system a registrar
is appointed having judicial powers, to
whom any one wishing to obtain a GER
tifcate of title may present his deeds,
plans and other evidence. Notice is
given to persons who appear to have an
interest in the land and general notice
to all who may be interested to come in
and protect their rights. An official
search of the records is made, and when
the title is established the registrar makes
his certificate in duplicate, one of which
is recorded in his Office and the other
given to the owner of the land This GER
tifcate is an indefeasible title, and may
be transferred with no other formality
than an endorsement on the certificate re-
corded at the registry. The exact state of
the title can always be known, therefore,
by inspection of the certificate in the regis
trar's Office. By this system the expense
and delay of searches repeated when
ever the land is sold or mortgaged,
are avoided, and transfers are
made simple, easy and safe. When
the bargain for piece of land, whether
worth hundred dollars or hundreds of
thousands, has been concluded, the actual
conveyance may be completed in five
minutes.
This plan has worked well in South
Australia for twenty years, and has been
in use in the other Australian colonies and
New Zealand for shorter time. 1t de-
deserves trial in this country

by which the consumption of petroleum
on steamboats, and railroads has been used
in generating steam for years. The weight
of the machine is 2S0 lbs, and the machin-
cry is very compact. From three to ten
miles an hour, according to the nature of
the travelling, is the speed expected to be
attained. In sections where the roads are
good this machine would be practicable
and afford an inexpensive but easy method
of getting about, particularly for physi-
clans, clergymen and others whose duties
call them much abroad.
A traveller who has recently visited
Jerusalem tells of the sensation produced
there last month by the introduction of
the electric light, just four years after gas
light was first seen there. The electric
plant is used in large -four mill adjoin-
ing the supposed site of Calvary and
close to the Damascus gate. If the Arabs
and Jews were filled with wonder by the
the flaming gas jets in 1887, they are con-
founded when they see the light of cleo
tricity in 1891. Many of them are so
alarmed that they hardly dare to look at
it, and the Mohammedans call upon the
prophet for safety. They ask what it is,
where it comes from, and how the magi-
clans make it. When told that it is the
same thing as lightning, they become
still more mystifed, ask how it can be
caught or held, and take care to keep at a
respectful distance from it. Perhaps"
says the traveller, "the day is not far
distant when the streets and houses of
Jerusalem may be lighted by electricity,
and even when Palestine, long desolate,
shall blossom like the rose"
