TERRE HAUTE, May 12.-[Special Post
master Donham, the new democratic post
master appointed in place of David O.
Greiner, removed on sensational charges
of immoral conduct, received bis commits
sion today. and at once demanded the of.
fee of Greiner, who refused to retire until
Monday.
Denham declared he was In possession,
Notwithstanding Greiner's refusal, as
the instructions from the postmaster-gen-
eral authorized him to take possession at
once, and be declared his deputies in
stalled.
At o'clock this afternoon Postmaster
Donhsm. interpreting the recent opinion
of Acknowledgement Olney to mean that
the civil service rules extended by Presi-
dent Harrison to all free delivery post
offices do not apply until the civil service
examination has been held, removed all
the republican clerks and letter carriers
but three and appointed democrats in
their places. who at once qualified.
Tonight Greiner caused Postmaster Dom
ham to be locked out of the postofIice, but
Donham held the fort in the postmaster's
private Office. and the republican ienitor
who was sent in to eject him, was ordered
to vacate at once. and he went.
There was an air of excitement about
the government building tonight. and
groups of men were around excitedly dis
cussing the situation. The point in
volved in the case was the civil service
examination, which is set for tomorrow,
the special examiner who is to conduct
it having arrived today from Washington.
II the democratic view is correct then the
democrats will have the offices when the
examination occurs tomorrow and they
will be exempt from the rules. If the RS
publican view is correct the republican
force is in and will be exempt There is
o very bitter feeling over the matter.
Tonight the democrats, by a stratgem,
obtained possession of the entire postoffice
building. When the mail was delivered
from the trains the side door was
opened, and Notwithstanding the
force from the inside, it was
pushed in and the democrats found them
selves in possession. The republican
clerks on hand soon afterward departed.
The democrats on looking around found
that the inner doors mad been nailed down
and barricaded by the republicans.

Food for Horses.

The New Jersey experiment station
summarizes its study of the food require
ments OF work horses as follows:
l. That too little attention is paid to the
preparation of rations for work horses. Ra-
tiOnal feeding Is quite as important for horses
ss for dairy COWS.
2. That the kind and quality of specific
nutriments contained in feeds ard not their
names, should guide In the preparation OF
rations.
3. That while oats are an excellent horse
feed, i. is not alone because they are oats, but
because Of the amounts aud proportions OF the
more valuable nutrIments. fat and protein,
con tanned in them.
4. That dried brewers grains are a whole.
some, nutritious and palatable horse feed, and,
at present prices. they may be substituted for
oats and a decided saving made in the cost Of
the ration
8. Timothy hay and oats, at present prices,
are expensive feeds. Ii does not follow be-
cause farmer raises these crops that he should
feed them when other products equally useful
may be purchased at less cost per pound of
actual nutrients.
q. The condition of the markets In this state
furnishes abundant evidence that the selling
price Of fine feeds and farm products is not
q correct basis for estimating actual feeding
value.
2. farmer who intelligently exchanges
farm products for commercial feeds. even at
the same price per ton. may secure not only an
increase IN feeding value but also gain in
fertility. Market conditions do not recognize
differences In the fersiiizing constituents of
feeds.

Much in Little.

Farmers do not often acquire fortune
or grow rich rapidly; but if indus
trious and economical, they are moro GER
tain of moderate success than men in any
other walk of life.
Study your market If you wish TO grow
crops for home market; find out what
that market most needs. There are few
places but that good opening can be
found, although in others there may be
an over-supply.
Have you ever noticed that agriculture
is the only industrial occupation that is
wholly free from strikes and other labor
troubles? This seems to indicate that it
is pretty satisfactory calling.
Suppose, in rosdmaking. We should
adopt the system of a railroad company,
and place a man in charge who knows
how the road should be built. Would we
not soon hear the last about poor rosds?"
Nature abhors q vacuum. When land
is left bare, she Immediately sets about
covering it with weeds or grass. This
should teach US a lesson. Soil Is never at
its best when left bare to the elements.
Exceedingly rich soil is not 80 much
needed for the production OF crops as ID
thorough tillage This should be kept in
mind by the man who signs because his
land is not so good as his neiGhbor's.
Good roads are the best evidence OF the
prosperity of given district. Some seem
to think the prosperity must come first
and the good roads atterward On the
contrary. the good roads should be the
factor toward bringing prosperity.
Do not think that because certain crops
are low now you will be on the safe side
if you avoid growing these the coming
season. A man who changes his methods
or rotation for such reasons rarely ever
makes much Roadway.
One cause which promises to have some
effect in checking the expansion in wheat
growing in certain districts is the scarcity
of labor In the northwest harvest hands
last year were in greater demand than
ever and wages exorbitant.
Spruce timber will begin to be scarce by
the end of the decade most probably, as
its use is increasing enormously. But as
it needs from 100 TO seVenty-five years to
grow a mature spruce tree, the present
generation will hardly take much interest
in planting them.

The Crow.
A correspondent OF the Mirror is friend

A correspondent OF the Mirror is friend
of the crow. He says:
Now q kindly word for the crow, bird
which | consider the farmers friend; for ex-
ceptinK the short season in early spring when
he may occasionally rob the mother hen of Que
OF her darling chicks, or. possibly. her nest of
an egg-the greater part Of the year his food
consists largely of the farmers ensmY-the
grasshopper, the cricket and the worm. have
seen in the early autumn flock Of crows In a
meadow spread out in a line, marching along
and devouring grasshoppers as would flock
of young turkeys, and could the farmer keep a
correct account with the crow i think hs
would be surprised at the end Of the year to
see how mueh he would have placed on the
credit side OF the birds account and how lttl e
to the debit side. Try the cOaltar your
seed corn and let the GROW live and continue
his good work.
After the seedcorn is shslled, take say
peck at time and place IL in pail, or better
still, an old-fashioned tin dishpan, into which
drop a small quantity of coaItar, say q table
spoonful at q time, and with q stick stir the
corn until each kernel is completely coated,
adding enough of the tar from time TO time till
this is accomplished. but using more than is
necessary TO do this. Then sprinkle common
plaster on the corn and continue stirring until
each grain is covered with the plaster, when
the corn can be handled and planted as though
il had been simply rolled in plaster alone.
Plant after it has been thus treated and you
rest assured that no crow will pull the
second hill of corn.
This remedy may be practicable for
those who plant by hand, but Indiana
farmers will prefer gun.

Results at our state station.

Results ut Our State Station.
The Indiana experiment station reports
as follows:
l. The earliest planting OF corn has given an
average yield of about two bushels more per
acre than any other planting, and over twelve
bushels more than the latest planting.
2. The highest average yield has been OBJ
tanned from the thickest planting, Stalks about
eleven inches apart in the drill row; but If the
crop is to be hushed it will be better to have
the stalks twelve to fourteen inches apart.
3. The average result of a two years expert
ment indicates the desiraDility OF deep blowing
for corn.
l. Shallow cultivation OF corn has given bet
ter results than either medium or deep cultIVs-
ton.
.. Shallow running corn cultivRtors have
produced higher average yields than those
which deeply stir the soil.
6. A judicious rotation of crops, involving
grains and grasses, has produced average yields
of corn l3 per cent, Of wheat 81 per cent, and
of oats II per cent. larger than continuous
grain growing.
T. Stable manure has produced far better,
and far more lasting effects on the yield of corn
than commercial fertilizers.
s. In experiments thus far, applications OF
commercial fertilizers 70 corn have generally
proved Improbable.
9. Moderate applications of stable manure to
corn have produced almost good yields of
corn the first year as heavy dressings.
10. Stable manure has seldom returned a
profit from its the first year. but the aggre-
gate increase in yield Of the several crops ben
Gifted has generally been sufficient to insure
handsome profits.
II. The date of planting in 1892 had little If
any effect here, on the length of time required
to mature crops.
