SHOULD STOP DAWDLING.

The senate ought to realize that the
people of the country are sick of the
dawdling methods that have prevailed
since the silver repeal bill was taken up.
1t is time for a vote. The present
situation of business is extremely
critical. The general resumption of
manufacturing business, and the re-
covery of finances from the desperate
condition they were in, has been accom-
plished at great cost.
Manufacturing is in far from satisfac-
tory condition. A very large number of
the mills that have resumed operations
have done SO at great sacrifices, and it
has been only through mutual conces-
sions of labor and capital that prolonged
idleness has been avoided.
The delay in the senate is operating to
renew the distrust and encouragement
that prevailed before the repeal bill
passed the house, The encouragement
felt when the house took the action it
did has begun already to falter. 1t will
disappear If there is not very soon as
surance that the senate means to prompt
ly complete the repeal bill.
Hope on, hope ever, is good enough
motto, but hope does not pay bills.
Hope will not induce mills to buy wool
and cotton, nor materially aid in MAX
ing up their pay rolls.
While there is no cause to doubt the
attitude Of the Eastern Republican
senators, or suspect that they will not
vote right, it would still be satisfying
to see them more aggressively active in
pushing the dilatory senate toward a
vote.

More Thorough TlIlage.

1t is not probable that the chief
mistake of many American farmers
is in spreading his labor and time
over too many acres: Broad plant
ing and large crops do not always go
together. Time and labor are con-
sumed in planting extra acres that
would pay much greater net profit il
given to thorough tillage OF a fair.
sized crop. Times and conditions
have changed gince Horace Greeley
could wisely advise farmers to plant
a halt-acre more in corn TO meet the
demands OF a civil war. Much new
soil was then in cultivation, and
some neglect could not ruin crop.
To-day it is only by constant and
thorough tillage that we can get an
excess in value of crop over our ex-
penses. The blowing, tillage, and
reaping of shortened crops leave
naught of profit, but a slight addi-
tion of labor at the right time
changes moderate yie.d to a large
one, and an Improbable crop to
profitable one. The temptation Is to
plant more than we have time to
properly cultivate. Let us produce
large crops, but the only sure aud re-
munerattve way Is TO add more thor
ough tlllage

Making Court Fools.

During the reign OF Peter the First,
Gear OF Russia, 1t was the custom OF
that tyrant to punish those mobiles who
offended him by an imperial order that
they should become fools. from which
moment the unfortunate victim, how
ever endowed with intellect, instantly
became the laughing stock Of the whole
court.
He had the privilege of saying every
thing he chose, at the peril, however,
OF being kicked or horsewhipped, with
out daring to offer any sort OF retalia-
tion. Everything he did was ridiculed,
his complaints treated as jests, and his
sarcasms sneered at and commented on
as marvellous proofs Of understanding
In fool.
The Empress Anne surpassed this
a5ominable cruelty, but sometimes
mingled In her practices so much of
oddly that 1t was impossible not to be
much entertained.
once she decreed that certain Prince
g" should become a hen, to punish
him for some trifiing misdemeanor, and
Tor this purpose she ordered a large
basket, stuffed with straw and followed
into nest, with quantity OF eggs in
side, to be placed conspicuousiy in one
OF the principal rooms at court.
The Prince was condemned, on pain
of death, 10 sit upon this nest and rem
der himself to the last degree ridicu-
lous by initiating the cackling of q hen.

The Dairy.

In making up the rations even fol-
cattle, it is better to give good
variety.
THE grades of cattle take the name
OF the sire: if the bull is Shortho. n
with a Soruh-0Ow 10 10 grade Ghort
horn.
WHILE all the elements of growth
are in the skim-milk, yet as soon as
the calf is old enough it should be
taught to eat
CATTLE must be kept comfortable.
What Is lacking In warm and dry
shelter we pay for in feed and con-
sumed fat OF the animals.
EITHER full bloods or good grades
are necessary in cattle to be able to
secure an early maturity; scrubs need
longer time to grow.
MINNESOTA and the Dakotas are
yet infants in the dairy industry but
the tact that Canada with similar
climate, exports SO, 900, 600 of dairy
products annually, while the whole
United States only exports $4,000, :.
600, is encouraging to those who hold
these States to be especially well
adapted to successful dairying.

Spraying Mixture.

The Baltimore American gives the
following as the best mixture for
spraying purposes: "Use six pounds
of sulphate of copper dissolved in hot
water and seven pounds of sal soda,
dissolved in hot water. When cool,
pour soda with the copper and allow
it to settle. This will make enough
to fill a barrel, and is the best solu-
ton thus far discovered for the pur-
pose. For spraying currant bushes,
use paris green, one tablespoonful to
each water-can, two gallons. Mix it
intimately with the water, and spray
the bushes when in blossom.

There are three elements that com
bine to make a true marriage-health,
love and sympathetic compationship.
No man or woman physically weak
should marry, and thus entail suffering
on others. Love does not mean pas.
sion; it is based on understanding.
Men and women should know each
other behind the curtain, as it were.
before marriage. Unhappy lives often
result from imperfect knowledge before
marriage of the characteristics of the
partner in the contract. Love make.
sacrifices; passion never. No husband
or wife has ever known true happiness
until after the birth of child. Men
and women on the plane of marriage
stand equals. There should be sympS
thetic companionship in the sense thai
an irreligious person should not marry
one who is religiously inclined, or an
unintellectual person one who is of Old.
posite taste. There should be svmpa.
thy and fellowship between husband
and wife in all the pursuits of life
