THE cHAu7AUQUA ASSEMBLY

As announced last week the Lhautau-
qua assembly will he held upon tie
beautiful grounds near the city from
july 81 to August Z. The executive
board met last Monday TO consider sew
eral matters pertaining to the summer
session, and it WAS decided to proceed
to make arrangements for securing ill.,
structors and lecturers, for raising
funds therefor and above all get the
best talent possible within the income
Of the assembly. 1t is believed that the
assembly this year can be made inter-
esting, attractive and instructive with
a moderate outlay of money, and if the
board succeeds with its present llans
will be successful in this direction.
AS A BUSINESS PROPOSITION.
When the people come to consider
the benefits that are derived from hav-
ing these annual assemblies at Hot
Springs they will be 10th to think of
permittiN: it to be discontinued for
even a single season. AS an advertise
ment for IL city it has been sur
passed by anything. The railroads in
all their advertising literature speak of
the Chautauqua as ome of the great al
fractions. All the advertising matter
that the Chautauqua management has
ever gotten out is an eloquent appeal to
people to come here. Last year 1871, 0n0
pages of matter was sent broadcast all
along the lines of tie railroads to every
city and hamlet within $50 miles of Hot
Springs, advertising the Chautamqua
ssembly, and more is always said OF
Hot Springs in this advertising matter
than of the assembly itself, The re.
duced rates that are secured upon the
railroads during the annual Chautauqua
assembly is sufficient inducement fol
every business MAI and every N whs
is in any way interested in Hot Springs
to use his influence and exert hinsel
toward keeping up this C%hautauqua as
sembly. If people do not come to at
tend the assembly they will improve TIL,
cheap passenger rates and come to visi
the Springs at that time.
We believe it is of great importanc
to Hot Springs that the Chautauqu
assembly be sustained and encourage
by the people here, and when the tim
arrives render all the financial assis
tance possible, as we'll as their persona
aid. Other towns in the Hills are yer
anxious to bid for securing the assen,
bly,, and it would be a direct blow fu
us to loose it.

THE CHANGE IN THE nus
IRALLAN BALLOT.

We say the change whereby a voter
can by q simple cross vote a straight
ticket, destroys the first principle of
the Australian system, which was to
educate the individual voter to inde-
pendent and intelligent action. Per-
maps to make this clear to Stanley we
should not say independent for he will
construe it to mean peoples party, but
should use the word individual The
Union has no great faith in that
peoples party voter who will vote for
q "yaller dog on his ticket rather than
q man on the republican or demo-
cratic. Principles are all right, but
"yaller dogs won't enforce them and
nine times out of ten the Wanted prln-
ciples Of the republican and other
parties are formulated by 'yaller doga."
By the way, won't the STAR tell US
what the present principles Of the re-
publican party are?
The intelligent voter wanted no
change in the original law. The ig-
norant partisan desired it and the vote
buyer wanted it so that his ignorant
tool would be less liable to make a mis-
take when he undertook to deliver the
goods. The Union man always has
and continues TO claim that the safety
OF the nation lies not in parties but in
the independent voter of all PARTIES
Rapid City Union.
Then we are to understand that the
Union is "%independent' of all parties,
that it makes its own choice of candi-
dates, and is to judge for itself who
the "yaller dogs are, instead Of leay-
ing that for a majority of the "people's"
or any other political party to decide.
Or are we to understand that the
4'people's party has no "yaller dogs"
1t appears to us that the Union has
a very exalted opinion of its Judgment
as between men. The editor of that
sheet must have a very extended ac-
quaintance throughout the nation to
be able to pick out his favorites, if he
proposes to vote for men instead Of
principles.
Intelligent people know before they
so to the polls whether or not they will
vote a straight ticket, and under the
law as changed, they can vote that way
with q simple cross or mix things to
suit themselves, and vote for any car.
didate from either party the same as
before. The independence of voters
has not been curtaiIed in the least.
The mode of voting has been simplificd,
that is all.
If the Union passed through last
falls campaign without learning wha.
the principles Of the republican party
are, and has not improved the oppor.
tunity Of observing the policy and
principles Of the republican party dur.
ing past administrations. we are truly
sorry for it. and will further express
n sincere sorrow by again publishing
the principles Of the republican party
il the Union wishes. The republican
party bas principles. and practices just
what it breaches. In this respect it
differs from any party We know Of.

Facts For Farmers.

A bulletin was written to be read by
farmers. The subject was one which
all farmers wish to learn more about,
and was chosen for that purpose. II
was written from the farmers stand
point and will be supplied free to all
farmers who write for it. If you do
not want it, don't send for it.
The bulletin is No. 70, of "a pages,
recently issued by the n. C. Agricu1tu-
raj Experiment Station at Raleigh.
Every man who farms should become
acquainted with the structure of plants
and the forces exerted by them in
growing; how they take up food from
the soil and air, and how they store it
away, and the best plans for their Gull
tivation and care; how stable manure
may be preserved and utilized; how
lime acts upon the soil, and what soils
are most benefited by its application
All these are treated in a plain, practical
way in this bulletin. Green manuring
is also fully described, as well as the
value of recuperative crops and the
proper rotation of crops. Some may
say that a discussion of these matters
is not truly experimental in their char
acter, and does not belong in the bulle-
tins of an experiment station. 1t is
pretty well settled, however, from the
favor with which the farmers have re-
ceived this bulletin, that they appreci-
ate its pages.

f, H. G., Shelby, n. e
answered by w. F. Massey, Horticulturist,
Experiment Station
In this latitude any fruit trees can
be pruned as soon as you choose after
the fall of the leaf, but in the case of
the peach 1 usually prefer to do the
pruning in February, as then the char
acter of the buds is more apparent. If
fruit trees are properly pruned and at
tended to from the start, there will
seldom be any need for heavy cutting.
Pruning in the dormant season pro-
notes more rapid growth. Too rapid
growth is checked and directed BY
pinching the ends of growing shoot.
in summer. Our Station will soon
have Bulletin out on the subject OF
fruit culture, in which this subject
Will be more fully treated. Potassic
manures are best for fruit trees in gen.
eral. Bone dust and wood ashes are
good mixture. Mulching your straw
berries will do no harm if not put on toe
thlcSly, and pine leaves or straw will
be found useful in Spring to pull over
the vines as protection from threat
ened frost when in bloom, and will
keep the fruit clean. But the mulch
is not absolutely necessary as win
ter protection here, as it is at the
North.

Outlook for the Farmer
Fro n the Lynchburg Advance

FRO n the Lynchburg Advance
A few days ago we adverted to the
fact, now well ascertained, that the
cotton crop of 1898 will be much
below the average, but that the in
creased price will make up for the
deficiency in quantity. 1t is now
known that the wheat crop, also. is
far bt low the yield of last year, and
there is also a considerable shortage
in Europe. The foreign demand on
American wheat will be very heavy
and the home consumption will con
tinue undiminished

falling off in the corh crop of this
year. Taking all these facts togeth-
er, we are warranted in concluding
that the present low prices of Ameri-
can products cannot much longer be
maintained. The prospect for the
farmer is more favorable than it has
been for several years. A turn in his
fortunes is near at hand, and along
with agricultural prosperity the gen
eral prosperity of the country will
revive.

Harvesting the Corn Crop.

There is a serious loss in harvest
ing corn in the usual way of pulling
fodder and plucking the ears Some
recent Experiment Station work serves
to bring this out in relief. Mr.. J. H.
Patterson, of the MARYLAND Station.
publishes some matter showing the To-
cation of the dry matter of the corn
plant in three crops examined. Coeffi-
clients of digestibility are given, with
composition and total digestible pro
duct of ears, topped fodder, blades
husks and stubble. The results show
the ears and blades to have been only
$3.50 per cent of the dry matter of the
crop. The other parts usually neg
1ected by our farmers consequently
amount to 49.41 per cent, or at least
one-ha1f.
Of the digestible matter 55.os per
cent only was contained in ears and
blades. Thus nearly As per cent of the
digestible matter of the crop would be
lost by taking only ears and blades
from the field.
The digestibility of coarse fodder.
rich in arbohydrateS. is greatly in
creased by feeding with highly nitro
genous materials, such as cotton seed
meal. So it would be possible for one
to get almost as much digestible food
out of the corn stalk left to rot in the
field as is saved from the crop in ears
and pulled fodder.
The simplest way to get the most
food out of the corn crop is to cut close
