To Prevent Washouts In Grain
Fields.

If comparatively level fields are
sown to wheat or rye, burrows should
be made that will quickly carry Off all
the superhuous water. The burrows
should follow the lowest portion Of
the field, even if it be a tortuous
course. 1t is best to do this imme-
diately after seeding, but it may be
done at any time before the ground
becomes frozen solid. OF course, some
Of the grain will be destroyed, but by
scattering, with fork or shovel, the
upturned soil, only the plants in the
immediate channel will be lost, and
this precaution often saves ten times
that amount being drowned out or
stunted in low places. If grain occu-
pies the steep hillsides, burrows should
be made from the lowest places lead
ing down and horizontally around the
hill, thus conveying much of the sur
plus water to the direct portions. IT
the burrows are gradually sloping,
washing will be prevented. If the
hill ia quite steep several burrows
should be drawn, thus diverting
heavy rainfalls into several channels,
with consequent less danger from
washing or overfow.--Am. Agricul-
turist.

The Blarsted Britisher.

The English papers have good
deal to say in dispraise of Jay Gould.
This is perhaps to be expected.
Whenever Jay made dive for En-
glish capital he generally came up
with both hands full. An English
man hates to lose his money, but he
hates worse of all to lose it to Yam
kee. The least discreditable of Gould's
transactions were those OF which he
made Englishmen the yictims.-St

The Japanese washing day has
many features peculiar to that pecr-
liar land. Fret Of all, the garments
which are to be washed are ripped
apart, as they are sown with long
stitches, like basting, expressly to
facilitate this operation. The little
tub, which is about the size Of dish
pan sets upon the floor or the ground
and the operative armed with piece
OF soap, the cold water and her bare
hands, docs the Laundering 1t
scarcely need be said that II is not an
easy or au enjoyable task. Japanese
dirt isjust as jadherent in its nature
as Yankee dirt and leaves the gar
ments just as reluctantly. Most of
the work is done beside the streams
or the water supply, whatever 1t may
be, and such thing as a laundry
room in connection with the dwelling
has yet to be thought of, much more
adopted. The fat-iron is also un-
known. The clothes are spread
smoothly upon large boards, similar
to the common ironing board, and the
hot sun can generally be depended
upon to get one article dry by the
time the next is ready to take Its
place. Good Housekeeping.

THERE is an ominous silence per.
vading the Ohio atmosphere, and no
more is heard as TO Campbel's eligi-

simple fact is the democrats have
abandoned all hope of carrying Ohio,
and no nomination for president will
be made from any state that is con-
sidered doubtful. This will shut out
Boies, Campbell and Pattison and
leave "the good western democrat"

THE London Ironmongsr asserts
that the existing strain in England
cannot be much longer maintained
unless q radical CHI ,nge in the demand
for English iron products is affected.
As to tinplate, the Ironmonger says,
"values are very low and sales at
quotations are by no means easy to
make. Merchants here. however, are
pleased to see bill before congress
for the repeal of the duty on tiuplate
under the Nc. Kinley act. II this bill
succeeds, 1t will place the trade on it's
old footing" Just so; repeal the Nc.
Kinley bill and turn over to Wales
the manufacture of the tinplate neces-
sary for the consumption OF this conn
try; pay into foreign pockets money
for wages that would otherwise be
paid to American laborers and enrich
the foreign artisans at the expense of
our own people. This is the treetrade
program, and the only reason that 1t
is not carried out is that republican,
administration at Washington and q
republican senate stand in the way of
the repeal of the protective tariff.
