The Elements of Nutrition.

Oats supply the elements necessary to balance the corn ration. They build up the bone and muscle structures. Rye and barley furnish these elements also and can be protitably purchased and fed if you do not happen to have them. Anything that will furnish all the elements of animal nutrition might be used with more or less profit when led to the brood SOW, for she is building the frames and muscles of an unborn litter and putting into them, or failing to put into them, that almost inde- scribable, yet notable feature that we call quality. -Colman's Rural World.

Queer questions sometimes come
before great tribunals, The supreme
court OF the United States ina case
decided just before the summer vaca-
tiou, was called 10 lct2rmiuea a curious
controversy in respect of the distiuc-
ton between fruit and vegetables,
Under the tariff act of lNs& ther, yyas
n duty of 10 per cent al vulorm ou
ON vegetables IN their natural state,
Under the same statute WuttS, yry1n,
ripe, or dried, not otherwise specially
enumerated or provided for, were ON
the free list. 4 New York merchant
imported a lot of tomatoes trom the
West Indies, and the collector required
him To pay duties upon them rs vyg1-
tables. This he did under protest, and
he subsequently, brought an action in
the circuit court of th1 United States
to recover back the amount thus paid.
lie was unsuccessful in the trial court
and ne appealed to the supreme court
nj Washington,
Evidence consisted mostly of detjui-
tions read 10y both sides from Wchstcr'S
dictionary, WorCrstcrs dictionary and
the Imperial dictionary. The plaintiff
however, called two witnesses who had
been engaged for many years in selling
fruit and Vegetables, both of whom
testified that no special meanings diff
ferent from the dictionary definitions
were assigned To the words fruit and
vegetables by persons trading in the
articles - named.
Upon this proof the supreme court Of
the United States declares that in the
absence ofany commercial usage giving
the terms special meaning, they must
bC deemed 10 have been used 10y the
lawmakers i'm their ordinary sense.
Courts take judicial notice of the
ordinary meaning of words without
requiring or generally receiving any
proof, and upon such question, says
Mr. Justice Gray, dictionaries are
admitted, not a. evidence, hut only u~
aids TO the memory and understanding
OF the court
Accordingly, the supreme court IT.
fuses to class tomatoes with fruit,
declaring that the plaintiff attempt to
do this is like the argument of the
complainant in a similar case u few
wears ago, that beans should be clIssCd
rs seeds under the tariff act. In that
case the late Mr.. Justice Bradley, OF
New Jersey, said he was unable to see
why beans should he classified as seeds
any more than wulnuts. As to the to-
mato question, the opinion Of the court
is summed up in this paragraph:
"Botanically speaking, tomatoes are
the fruit of vine, just as are cucum-
bers, squashes, beans and peas. But
in the common language of the people,
whether sellers or consumers of pro-
visions, all these are vegetables which
are grown in kitchen gardens, and
which, when eaten cooked or raw, are
like potatoes, carrots, parsnips, turnips,
beetS, caulitioWCr, cabbage, celery and
lett-ce, usually, served ut dinner in,
with, or after the soup, fish or meats
which constitute the principal part OF
the repas.and not like fruits generally,
rs desert.
The tomato was formerly known as
the love apple, but the court does not
refer to this fact.

A COMPR0NISE VERDICT

The very tiresome Behring sea dis
2ute has finally been decided, the Com
mission reaching comprUmise verdict
that brands its members Us VaciiiatiuE
weak kneed asses. They first decided
that Behring's sea was part Of the Pa
cific ocean, and then provided 4 regu-
lation which says, in effect, that il IS
not. The regulation provides hat the
United States and England shall forbid
their subjects killing fur seal within 4
zone of 90 miles around the PFiGy lofi
islands. The regulation does not pro-
vide for any other nation Observing
these limits, and it tr!es to give both
countries jurisdiction over Il section Of
what it decides to be the Pacific ocean,
l2O miles in diameter 1t also provides
a close season over the entire Pacific
ocean north Of latitude s., and west Of
the IS0th degree of longitude fr N
Greenwich. This learned commission
first decided that Behring's sea was a
part of the Pacific ocean, and as such
they had no Jurisdiction over it, and
then they proceeded to assums that
Jurisdiction. They have had one case
presented to them, and decided another
concerning which they also decided,
they had no authority to act. The
truth is, the commissioners did not
wish to offend either country, neither
having a case, and so compromised by
declaring themselves the only power
having nnntrnl over the hirh sons

a WASTE or TINE.

Congress is fooling away valuable
time, for no purpose en earth except to
allow the members thereof to make a
speech to empty benches, aud go on
the record. 1t has been agreed upon
that two weeks shall be devoted to
this fOOlishness, at the end of which
time vote will be taken On the bill to
repeal the Sherman bill. 1t is not
probable that a single eongressman's
opinion will be changed by the debate,
in fact the dispatches show that there
is hardly a quorum present, the mem
bers having gone to the sea side to put
in the time until the day of voting is
reached. Congress has a duty before
it thatit cannot shirk, and the sooner
it gets up to the rack, and tackles the
fodder, the quicker the result will be
reached. The country demands the
settlement of the silver question, we
believe the large majority demand this
settlement by coming to q gold basis,
but if this is not done, it is urgent that
the uncertainty be set aside, and the
certain made public, even if that GER
tainty is to be free coinage of silver
Anything beats the present rudderless
financial derelict.

The people of the town Of Wilber-
force, o., are the first in Ohio to know
what it is to have negro postmaster
and the colored people there had to
wait for a democratic administration
before receiving recognition. George
Harding, a cOlored man of some educa-
ton, has been appointed postmaster at
that place. The tOwr is the seat of Il
college given up to the education Of
colOred youth, and the county in
which it is situated has the largest negro
population in proportion to its total
population of any county in the Buck
eye state. Harding has been a demo-
crat for Il number OF Years, in fact, ever
since he became OF age. He has taken
an active part in politics among his
own people in every presidential elect
ion as well Us state elections, for some
years past. With the moderation with
which the average negro looks upon a
cOlOred democrat, Harding has several
times narrowly escaped being mObbed
by the republicans of his race.
Harding was recommended for post
master by the democratic cOmmittie of
his county and his papers We're indors-
ed and his appointment procured by
Senator Brice, John Sherman's demo-
cratic colleague. Reports from Wilber-
force are to the effect that the republic
cans are very sore over Hardings ap-
pointment, while the democrats, look
ing at it from political point of view
are correspondingly jubilant.

Judgment, for we believe Hood River
is soon to lie the most prominent, as it
the best fruit growing section of the

make the thrifty industrious man well

ripe plunls to drop into the mouth of
the idle. Work, hard persistent work
is required to gain a competence here,

The Portland Savings Bank is just
now the subject Of much unfavoruble
comment. 1t seems that nearly all the
directors, employees, and numberless
relatives knew the crash was coming,
and each ont-grabbed the other in their
desire for coin enough to carry them
through a possibly hard winter. The
cashier tries to explain this condition
Of affairs by saying that these parties
were all already debtors TO the bank,
that they came forward, paid up the
interest and signed new notes, few
days before the bank closed, but this Is
thin to gauziness. The fact seems to
to be that the institution was robbers
