The question how near a farmer must be

draw stable manure rather than make 1t IN
MS own tarnyard Is not easy TO settle. IL
depends on the richness and availability OF
the manure, what is to be grown with IL,
and number Of other conditions that may
atreot the result. Market gardeners must
use so much manure that they always locate
close to the city or village which is their
market. Farmers usually make much more
stable manure than they would think of
buying. What they purchase comes at odd
spells, and in return loads after marketing
farm produce. The farmer who takes a
load OF grain to market can generally afford
70 load up with manure on his return trip.
But in transporting long distances it pay
better TO purchase well-rotted manure at
81 a load than to take unfermented manure
as gift. The rotted manure can be spread
nearly twice as far, and will do more than
twice the good. Far from market means
generally far from places where stable
manure can be bought, and this means an
excess Of coarse fodder, which can be worked
up into the manure pile and made as rich as
desired by adding some concentrated com
mercial fertilizer.

THE VOTE IN CONGRESS.

Exactly what would become OF such
proposition in congress it is not easy 10 de-
termine. On June last Mr.. Richardson
of Tennessee moved In the House 70 suspend
the rules and pass bill repeating the tax Of
10 per cent. on the state bank and bankers.
A majority Of the democrats in the Houss
voted In favor of that motion. The vote
was: Yeas, "a; nays, 116; a; d
every one OF the "a votes we're cast by
democrats. This shows that the sentiment
Of the party in congress favored
state banks, as 1t did u the national con-
vention. Had it not been for the repub-
licens in the House there would have been
a majority of votes in favor of repeating
the tax on state banks in the last congress,
without any limitations whatever, and as
the democrats IN the nest House we're
elected on that issue It is fair t. assume that
the sentiment IN favor of it will be much
stronger. At any rate there is no ques-
ton that the administration intends t. do
what It can in the way OF solving this ques-
tion according TO the ideas Of Horace White.

Dying for Lack Of Nitrogen.

William P. Neeld, writing on the value
Of nitrogen in the orange grove. says in the
Florida Farmer and Fruit GrolCer:
"A neiEhbor owns an old Seeding grove
of some 900 trees, Is or 20 years old. They
are in perfect health, no scale, no spider,
nothing but neglect and starvation. They
are full of dead limbs and are scnnt of
foliage and look pale green. He was not
fool enough not to try to reclaim 1t as it
stands here on the confines of St. Peters
burg. For the past two or three years be
has bought four tons annually or semi
annually, and applied it. but The grove il
slow to respond.
"Now what is to be donel Is it judicious
to pile on this complete fertilizer when it is
evident that the master spirit is wanting

Poultry Raising a Business.

Poultry raising is a business, and unless il
is conducted upon business principles it will
not be apt to pay we'll. Wherever we find
a neat, clean and orderly chicken house,
where feed bins aud troughs, water vessels.
dust boxes and other necessary arrange
ments are found, contr ibuting to the health
of the fowls and the con venience of the at
teudant, it will be pretty certain that, if
there is any money in raising fowls, this
sort of an estabii ,hment will be apt to sue
coed, and It certainly has a great advantage
over haphsZard attendance and poorly
equipped poultry buildings and yards.
says Poultry Herald. But there is
a sense and reason in all things, and
there is business point in this that
we wish TO call attention TO. If the outlay
for buildings and accessories goes beyond q
certain limit per head of fowls raised or
kept there will be loss tnaC the hens can
never make up. For example: If a man
puts up bull iings, fences, etc, to the amount
of S. Der head he must calculate that inter-
est on this sum, together with wear and tear
Of buildings, etc, viii cost him at least 20
cents year for every hen, or nearly as
much as it will take to keep the hens year.
A gentleman in the city who keeps fowls for
amusement can go TO any extraVaRance he
chooses, but this has nothing to do with the
man who keeps chickens for what he can
make out of them. Too many of the
chicken house plans we see in poultry pa
pers are designed to MAKE pretty effect
rather than practical utility. A sod build
ing, kept dry, is appreciated just as highly
by her henship as lath and plsstered two
story msnsard affair surrounded with a
turret aud gilt lightning rod. The point
we wish to make is that while there is a
positive necessity to convenient arrange
ments, warm, dry and we'll ventilated
quarters, the cost Of these things should
bear some sort of proportion TO the bust
ness; but this business forethought, it sp-
pears, is a very rare quality.

Keeping Soil Fertile.

The prominent idea of a farmers practice
should be that of maintaining the fertility
of his soil up to point that with ordinary
seasons will give him fair profit for the
cultivation of it. 1t Is certain that If he is
imbued with the idea that the correct thing
for him to do is to get everything possible
out Of the laad without giving anything
back to it in return be will have worn-out
farm some day--a farm that will not return
him living in his old age nor be of any
value to his children after be Is dead.
There was a time in this country when a
man could open up the best land in It's
favored section and make q fortune out Of
Its cultivation before il be ame AUST sd Z,
then sell out, if he chose, and open up an
other rich plantation in some other locality.
These conditions no longer exist in Georgia.
The best part of the land has been opened
and has been cultivated until it has been al
most impoverished not counting such as
will have to be diked and drained before it
can be profitably cultivated, and the farmer
OF Georgia is in pretty much the pred ca
ment that the New England farmer was
and Ia now. The Georgia farmer has got to
change his methods to conform to the
progress of events, Like the New England
farmer he has got to study closely the science
OF manuring and renovating the old lands,
the adaptation ofkhis crops 70 his markets.
Furthermore he will have to learn to prac-
tice higher economy than he ever did be-
Tore, regarding any time wasted at certain
seasons as so much money thrown away.
He must appreciate all these things fully
before he can take any great stride toward
prosperity. He must learn this: II be has
any land that with fGir seasons produces a
pale of cotton this year be must Look TO 1t
that enough is returned TO the soil TO enable
1t to make bale the following year. His
land is his capital stock, and no must not
allow his principal to get impaired. This
Is the correct principle for the farmer TO
act upon il he would have his larlh life
fairly progressive. For the exhaustive sys-
tenn that has been 80 long praciiced the
restorative system must he bstituted. The

Peach Trees in the Yards.

We have some peach trees in the hen yard
and some trees outside. The trees in the
hen yard have made wonderful growth,
and are as healthy as can be wished. The
hens have kept the ground around the trees
clean, and no grass and no cultivation has
been required. in fact, the trees have given
us no labor at all. They will afford excel
lent shade the coming summer, and no
doubt the hens will partially protect them
from insects. The trees outside have had
more care. but they do not compare IN APP
pearance with the thrifty, large trees in the
poultry yards.

SOLVING A GREAT PROBLEM.

The Financial Question Occupying the
Attention OF the A administration.
One OF the things which President Cleve-
land has set out to accomplish, says the
Philadelphia Press, is that Of solving the
currency problem, so as to stop further
agitation. 1t is a pretty big task, but be
feels himself equal to it. Horace White
one OF the editors OF the New York EUenin
Post, was the author OF the plank in tn
Chicago platform f0voring the repeal of the
tax on state bank notes. That plank was
written after full and free consultation
with Mr.. Cleveland, and this administra-
tion proposes to do what 1t can toward car
rying that plank into effect.
HORACE WHITES BILL.
Secretary Carlisle has already given
attenti N TO the subject, but Mr.. White has
been making special study of it and
scheme has been devised by him which will
be put through congress at the next session
as an administration measure If it can be
done. Exactly what shape the measure
will AXE is not yet fully known, but for one
thing, it Is proposed to retire the greenback
circulation, and to allow national banks to
issue circulation on bonds other than those
of the United States. State banks are also
to be allowed to issue notes, but IL is pro-
posed to put some limitations, on them as
on the national banks That ID, state banks
can issue circulation free from tax
on certain conditions, but where these con-
ditions are not comp led with tax will be
posed. The great object. as explained by
one Of the gentlemen who has been inter-
ested IN working out the scheme. il to make
the currency uniform as nearly ns possible,
and to give it elasticity. PRECEDENT Cleve-
land is said to hold that the great defect in
the present system is the lack Of elasticity.
IL may be said, however, with certainty,
that the present intention is to frame an act
that will give the federal authority some
power to tegulate the circulation issued by
state banks
