Restrain the RailrOad ;Gm'nie'

The Union Pacific company has
flied papers to restrain The Oregon
railroad commission from enforcing
the reduced freight rates. The
action is begun before Judge Boise oi
the circuit court. a wri: % review
has been asked 20 bring the matter
before the court md time st for
hearing is the 2lst of Sept, at
Salem.
A REVIEW is ASKED.
What the company seeks hy its
pleadiugs is writ of review of the
rates fixed in the court. 1t sets up
certain leases of lines of feeders,
upon which it is called to pay GER
tain fixed charges of 5! per cent or
50, ,556, ,593 GA per annum; that the
net earnings from the leased lines
the first year were only 81, 22S, 443 81
etc. Hence the company asks that
the Oregon commission rates b'
annulled as not compensatory and
the commission restrained from en-
forcing the same.

Among interesting current statistics is
a record OF the murders, lynchlng and le-
gal executions of the year 1890. Although
not wholly accurate, it is sufficiently so
to show some interesting comparisons and
deductions. In the United States during
the past year there were committed A.
29O murders. 10 1889 the number was
3, ,567; in 1888, 2.Sl4; in 1887, 2,335; 10
1856, l,449; in 1885, l,S0S. The cause
of last years murders are given as follows:
qusrrels, 2,lS4; liquor, $50; unknown,
464; jealousy, 1856; by highwsymen, 2l7;
infsnticide, I67; resisting arrest, l49;
hip waymen killsd, "a; seif-defeuse, 81;
insanity, SO; outrage, %; duel, /; strike,
|. The uumber of legal executions dur
ing the year shows an increase over those
of last YEAR, The total number was lO2,
compared with 98 for 1889, 81 in 1888,
10 10 1887, SO in 1886, and los in 1885.

rrders peculiar to women
leave their mark. You needn't

vorite Prescription comes to
your rescue as no other medi-

periodical pains, prolapsus and

Cultivation of Celery.

CELERY that was sown in April should
be kept clear Of weeds until the time of
planting, in June or July. The tops
should be torn of once or twice before
planting so as to insure ''stocky" plants,
which suffer less upon being transplanted.
Plant in rows three feet apart for the
dwarf varieties and four TO FIVE feet for
the larger sorts, and set SIX inches apart
lii rows. Ii the weather is dry at the time
of planting great care should be taken
that the roots are properly 'frmed' by
pressing the side of each plant gertly
with the foot, this compacts the soil and
Partially excludes the air from the roots
until new rootlets are formed, which viii
usually be in forty-eight hours. after
which all danger Is over. After the plant
ing Of the celery Is completed, nothing
further Is TO be done for six or ssyen weeks
excepting running through between rows
with the cuitivator or hoe, and freeing the
plants from weeds. About the middle of
August We begin the ''earthing up nee
essary for the blanching and whitening OF
that which Is wanted during the months
of September, October and Novenber-

in some of our exchanges we see the
argument plausibIy made that farmers
should not buy cottonseed meal, but rath-
er grow peas and beans, which, when
ground. possess nearly the same feeding
value. But where cotton seed meal is
bought and fed on the farm it is an addi-
ton to Its fertility, while with the farm
grown crops, what is taken from the farm,
at least of mineral elements, is all that is
put back again. 1t is true that peas ao-
sorb nitrogen from the air, and hence
their growing is less exhaustive; but even
peas get only part of their plant food
through the air. The crops which farm
ers should abstain from bu ying and grow
for feeding are those consisting mainly of
carbonaceous elements, as corn and corn
stalks.

Haymaking.

1t is good thing to remember that it
is better to cut hay two days too soon
than one day too late Ripe seed that
scatters In moving loses for the haymaker
the most concreated and nutritious part of
the crop. Better to cut when the seed is
immature than when 1t scatters. For
timothy, when the seed is just leaving the
dough the grass is probably the richest
and heaviest as a whole, while orchard
grass and sOme..- others can be cut even
earlier to advantage. For butter early
cut hay Is better, not so much for quantity,
peri laps, as for color, armona. aud quality,
and young stock enjoy its paltableness.
Indeed, IN earlier cutting there has al
ways seemed to US a gain in the stem and
leaves that cUmpensates for possible loss
in the somewhat decreased nutritive
quality of the seeds. Clover should be cut
when the heads are Drowned, or browning,
to save the rich leaves that will he scat
tered If the cutting be later Where the
crop is to be fed out the difference in
manurial value-and there is thought to
be difference in favor of late cuttings
small provided the system Of saving the
manure be good one We have always
had suspicion that thesonly gain to the
land from late cutting was due to the
losses of nutrition sustained by the nay
In the loss of seed and richer foliage.
