The Tin-Piate Jugsle.
Truly,
Il. III. NANSANr.

The n. Il. &. TAYLOR Company
complains that The World is unjust
to il because we asked il why il does
not make tin-plate since if it is SO easy
an operation. The company insists
that it has American tin-plate in
stock and for sale and offers to give
us the "full particulars of the case"
if our publication was not for polit-
ical effect"
But our publication was for polite
al effect, 1t was to illustrate that the
tax on foreign tin-plate, by which
from 100000 to Sl5,0oo,0o0 is tax
en- from the American consumers, is
money obtained under false preten-
ses, and that the alleged American
tin-plate infant for the support of
which this enormous tax is levied is
a miserable and contemplate decep.
ton.
The case referred to is this: On
the Nth of April the firm of j, NJ.
Reavis'S Son ordered a box of Ameri-
can tin-plste from the \. Il, G. Tay-
Tor Company. The box was not de-
livered with the other articles of the
same order. Ii was not included in
the bill. On July 9th it had not been
delivered, although this signal fail
ure Of the great American industry
had been exploited in the newspa-
pcrs, and there was every reason why
the order should be filled for the vim
dication of the Mckinley tax on the
American consumers OF tin plate.
These are full particulars, and there
is only one way in which the y. Il q.
Taylor Company can mitigate them.
That is by sending The World a re-
ceipt, signed by J. NJ. Resvis's Son, of
jackson, Tenn, for box of Ameri-
can Iin-plate delivered under the or
der of the l4th of April.-New York

Flowers need sprinkling to wasl
the dust of the leaves, even when the
ground is not very dry. This is es.
pecially tho case with the little door.
yard beds, where the dust from the
street flies abundantly. The plan,
leaves are their lungs, through which
they breathe, aud they win not do
good work when checked with dust,
any more than the lungs of the

The practice of sowing oats and
peas together for feeding, is not as
common as Il ought to be. They
make an excellent soiling crop and
can be put in tho silo to advantage.
Oats are moro exhaustive IL sown
alone, as 1t is now understood that
peas arc = rcnova.ing crop. their roots
taking nitrogen from air confined In
the soil, Hence, doubtless, is the
reason that the oats viii grow more
thrifty when sown with peas than
they viii alone. --,,,sSssisSssssssSxss
Feed the skim milk while it is still
sweet, There is an actual loss of food
material nom allowing the milk 10
put ON an acid condition, and this
loss is in proportion to the stage of
aeidity TO which the milk advances.
The cid notion that sour milk is best
for pigs is all wrong, Sour milk is
good for pigs, but the milk before it
sours is better contains more food,
aud thus is of greater value. 1t pays
TO look out for such matters.

The incoming Time.

In these longest days, unless work
is unusually pressing, the noon hour
should be extended. 1t is more pleas
ant as well as more healthful TO work
early and late, taking rest between.
than it is to do the same number of
hours work in the middle of the day.
Only in harvesting is the hot and dry
noon hour allowable, and then 1t is
rarely necessary. We know farmers,
prosperous and even wealthy. who
make practice of taking a 10 or 10
minute nap after each noon meal in
the longest summer days. They do
more work in the afternoon than they
could without this help from Natures
sweet restorer. 1t is far better than
the practice of lying abed late in the
morning, because hours of darkness
are not enough for sleep. A noon
day nap is quite as necessary as
MONDAY meal. Only habit makes
men think otherwise.-Am. Culiiva-
tor.

had heard OF the men doing such
things; that Is, American men. But
she informed me that great number
OF men in tho place did the'wnshing,
and other work, too. which l had NJ
ways considered belonging to wom-
ans domain. This is how 1t WIS
managed. The husband did the wash
