THE NEW HOUSE RULES.
CRISP DETERMINED THAT THE
MAJORITY SHALL RULE.
Extreme Silver Men In the Senate Trying
to Prevent the Repeal Biii From Com
ing to yote-Other News.
IIprs BUREAU. RApLEY BUILDING.
WASHINGTON. August 80. 1898. J

With Senator Sherman slated for n
speech in the Senate and nothing
ths House save the tiresome detate OF
rules that will certainly be adopted, the
crowd sought the Senate wing and the
SPEAKERS OF the House addressed nearly
empty galleries. The main tilt upon the
rules eliminated yesterda- when Mr..
Reed rtIlied TO Speaker Crisp. This vas
the first time during his term as speaker
that Mr.. Crisp has left the chair to enter
the general debate but Mr.. Re IDS eriu-
cisms Of the new rules were too much
for him to calmly Withstand, and when
he did enter the field the big man from
Maine found a foeman worthy OF his
steel Mr. Crisp and his Committee on
Rules are determined that the majority
shall not be hampered in the transaction
of public business, by a recalcltrant NIL
nority, and the new rules are 50 framed
as not to permit flibustering on the
tedious delays Of dilatory motions. An
other innovation is the adoption OF the
rule OF the Reed congress by which 100
members shall constitute quorum when
the House is in the committee OF the
whole. The new rules really accomplish
lust about what the Reed rules did, the
only difference being the lodging or the
power now In the Committee on Rules
instead Of IN the Speaker himself. In
a body OF this size # becomes matter
OF actual necessity 10 have rules OF this
distinctive character otherwise minorl-
ty on almost any measure could absO-
lutely block legislation.
The extreme silver men in the Senate
are still protesting that they will not
allow the question of the Sherman law
repeal TO come TO vote. and Senator
Teller declared that he had his winter
clothes with him and would wear them
before the vote was taken. Popular
sentiment may however change this. as

days duration has simply ruined the crop;
and in France and Germany farmers are
Strengthening their work cattle because
they have nothing to feed them on.
In consequence of the above state of
affairs hay is to-day selling in England
at from $50 to $40 per ton (2,24O
pounds). 1t will readily be perceived
that American growers have a regular
bonanza in their hands, especially when
it is learned that transportation on a
ton OF hay amounts to only 50 so to SO.
1t is estimated that the American crop
will be between forty and fifty million
tons.
Now, OF course, we can't help supply
the market, but we should lay aside the
system OF farming that has been followed
by many for years back, which compelled
the buying Of much hay, and strive to
save all possible while the weather is
favorable and other farm work is not
specially pressing. You will find it to be
no drag on your hands in the winter
when there is no pasture for stock.
Let every one ''make hay while the sun
shines" and the grass is accessible.

Flat Woods Vineyards.

The Daytona Journal thinks that the
fiat woods lands of Florida are admira-
bly, suited to grape culture. There has
been good deal of discussion on this
subject of late years. Some of the grape
growers contend that the grape does bet
ter on the high pine land than on low
land or. the fiat woods. The Journal

several vinegar in the vicinity Of Day
tona. Mr.. H. P. Hand, it says, has
vineyard of IA acres on this character
of land, that was planted a little over
two years ago. The vines were planted
in well prepared ground, in rows nine
feet apart and eight feet distant in the
row. They are trained upon wire trel-
lis and the ground kept thoroughly cul-
tivated, and all are of the white Niagara
variety and nine hundred in number.
Since their planting the vines have been
pictures of health and luxuriousHess,
and the growth is very strong.
At sixteen months from planting,
these vines produced about one pound
to the vine, or nine hundred pounds,
and at twenty-eight months, $500
pounds. Mr.. Hand estimates that the
crop from this one and three-quarter
acres of vines next year, or three years
from the planting, will be not less than
six tons of grapes.
Mess. Hand, Pinney & Lehman have
also upon fat lands vineyard of nine
acres, $500 vines sixteen months cid,
the product of which was a little over
two tons for the first year after planting.
These vines are also looking well and
m aking vigorous growth and will pro"
duce large crop Of fruit next year.
The vine also succeeds finely upon the
peninsula sand hills, and although little
planting has yet been done, Mr.. G. P.

has some very vigorous vines of the Del

infancy on the Halifax, no vineyards
being much over two years old, but its
success is demonstrated.
