Edison Patents Upheld.

Judge Green of the Federal Court
at Trenton, N. j., filed a very impor-
tant opinion in the case of the Edi-
son Electric-light Company against
Westinghouse, Church, Kerr & Co.,
in which he upholds the Edison pat
ents. Suit was brought to decide
the question whether the device used
by the Trenton Electric-light Com
pany for the distribution of the cleo
trio current was an infringement of
the Edison patent, and the court
virtually declares it is. Millions of
dollars are involved throughout the
United States and will accrue to the
Edison Company. The patent in
question is that covering the con
sumption and feeding wire method
of distribution. Edison obtained it
ten years ago.

Farm Notes,
Hints for Beginners.

Be sure that you love nature and
its workings.
BE sure that you enjoy the work of
farming
Be sure that you will be satisfied
to get living by the sweat of the
brow.
Make up your mind that you must
creep before you can walk and do
not expect to have as much as your
neighbor farmer who has been in the
field number of years Profit by
experience by treating him with re
spect and being an obliging neigh
Dor.
After choosing your crops choose
a favorable piece of land as near to
growing market as possible where
you can market your own goods so
to get the best price. Try to raise
the best quality and it will find
ready sale at paying prices.
After choosing the crops and soil,
choose life partner who is not
afraid to help turn the wheel of life
and one who understands and loves,
the farm and it's pleasures. believe
one of the most essential things to
make successful farmer is to have
a wife who has an interest and love
for farm.
Farming is like all other business,
without capital and the best tools we
can not make progress. Save in
hired help by using the latest i'm
proved tools.
Hire the best help that you can for
that is the cheapest. 1t does not
cost any more to feed good help than
poor, and with good help you have
most of the time to work yourself
where with poor help you have to
spend most Of your time in watching.
Use your help like gentleman, not
like slaves,
Do not forget the horse and other
dumb animals, but see that they are
we'll cared for. A horse that is we'll
cared for can do 10 hours work easier
than one half cared for can do six
hours work, and you are not ashamed
to meet your neighbor or friend
when you are on little drive.
You must not forget for yourself,
family and help, that you all need a
little pleasure, for it is poor motto
"All work and no play"

TEACHING A CHILD TO WAL.
He Should BE Left to His Own IncliatiOr
as Much as Possible,

People sometimes ask "Atwhat
age can we set a child in hair;
when put him on his legs; hw old
must he be before we teach i'm to
walk?" says the Toronto Worl, The
answers are easy. He must lot be
made to sit till he has spontaneously
sat up in his bed and has ben able
to hold his seat. This soletimes
happens in the sixth or seventh
month, sometimes later Thsitting
position is not without dang, even
when he takes to it himself; nposed
prematurely upon him, it tes the
back bone and may interfe with
the growth. So the childshould
never be taught to stand q walk.
That is his affair, not ours.
Place him on a carpet in ealthy
room or in the open air andet him
play in freedom, roll, tryto get
ahead on his hands and fee OF 90
backward, which he will d more
successfully at first-it all grdlnlly
strengthens and hardens him.
Some day he will manageto get
upon his knees, another day to go
forward upon them and then b rise
himself up against the chain. He
thus learns to do all he can, is asst
as he can and no more. But hey
say, he will be longer in learnns to
walk if he is left to go on hishads
and feet indefinitely.

The cases and counter. cases of the
United States and Great Britain, UNI
der the treaty to arbitrate the Bering
Sea difficulties between the two
countries, were simultaneously sent
to the United States Senate March
30 and to the houses of Parliament
in London. Briefly stated, the cases
of the United States is that all the
rights of Russia in respect to the seal
fisheries in Bering Sea and as to the
water boundary were established and
transferred by the treaty of Mach 30,
1867, between that nation and the
United States, and all the power and
authority possessed and asserted by
Russia to protect said rights passed
unimpaired to the United States un-
der that treaty; that the United
States has such property and inter
est in the Alaskan seal herd as to
justify the employment by that ma
tion upon the high seas of such
means as are reasonably necessary
to prevent the destruction of such
herd, and to secure the possession
and benefit of the same to the United
States; that all the acts and proceed
ings of the United States done and
had for the purpose of protecting
such property and interest were
justifiable and that compensation
should be made to the United States
by Great Britain by the payment of
the amount of the losses of the Uni
ted States, or such other sum as may
be deemed to be just
The case of Great Britain, on the
other hand, is that Bering Sea is an
open sea in which all nations have
the right to fish. 1t is asserted that
Great Britain has throughout been
favorably disposed to the adoption Of
general measures for the control of
the fur seal fisheries, should these be
found to be necessary and desirable,
with view to the protection of the
fur seals, provided such measures be
equitable and framed on just grounds
of common interest, and provided
that the adhesion of other powers be
secured as a guarantee of their con-
tinued and impartial execution.
Both parties file claims for dam
ages; the United States for losses to
it's revenue and on account of losses
to the Alaskan Commercial Company
because of the reduced number of
skins taken, owing to the diminution
of the herd by pelagic sealing of
British vessels, and Great Britain on
account of losses to the owners of
vessels seized by the United States
in the sea.

KEEP UP TO THE TIMES.
The Winter Evenings are the Opportunities
with Long Legs that We Should SGiZe.

How to spend the long winter

ner is a question that ought to inter
est every farmer. In summer there

work hard all day and the most
agreeable thing at night is pure un-
adulterated rest, but in winter there
are several hours after supper which
ought to be valuable part of the
day.
The mother and father should try
to make the home attractive and cosy

Have plenty of good reading. Let
your boys know what is going on out
side; get them interested in politics if
you can and urge them to watch the
proceedings of congress. There is
nothing in which there is more chance
for improvement than in farming.
This is a scientific age and farms
all ought to be run on scientific
principles. Let US come out of the
old experimental farming and go

reason and not the results only.
