SulDhlr for Fowls.

There is no remedy and assistant so
easily and cheaply obtained, SO harm
less to the fowls, and so satisfactory
in its results, says an exchange, as sui
phur. 1t being in the system OF animals
to a small degree, there is n greater
affinity for il than there otherwise
would be. 1t can be administered to
the fowls by having it in a small box,
SO that they can help themselves, or
by mixing it with their food once a
week, or as often as there r indica-
tons of vermin. Penetrating. rs it
does, to every part of the system, all
parasites are quickly and surely de-
stroyed; also gapes are said TO be pre-
vented in chickens. Fowls need 1T more
than animals, their feathers containing
between 4 and ) per cent OF sulphur.
Their eggs also have a small quantity
which is noticed by the discoloring or

naliy to the fowls when ON n nest;

soil in the busting box, 1t is equally

in this process is that enough boiling

better job performed than the n done

Pwexa ring Potato Seed.

If the eye of the potato &c allowed to
erow in a warm. dark place it quickly
saps all the vigor from the shoot and
also from the tuber, says American
Csktivator. The slender white shoot is
good for nothing to begin n healthy
growth, and it has taken SO much of
the substance of the potato that it is
yalueless for seed or for eating. EX-
posure TO the sunlight and drying
winds, however. make the seed better.
Put the potatoes in a light, cool room,
but one that will not freeze. The
slower the green shoot pushes and the
more the potato dries out the stronger
will be its subsequent growth Ii also
makes q great difference in earliness.
Some market gardeners who have
learned this secret always get early
potatoes hn market before their neigh
bors. They often cut the seed and

more than uncut seed and become
more thoroughly greened. A sunburTed

AN UGLY SHIPMATE.

Only the young of the giraffe could
be rendered sufficiently tractable to be
brought within reach Of shipboard. i
do not think it possible that a mature
specimen could ever be made sufficient
~ amenabie to discipline. These timid
animals have In the wild state an abid-
ing terror Of mankind. and even If, as
sometimes happens, a giraffe were run
to a standstiu and driven up TO the
wagon. III amount of kind treatment
could overcome his instructive fears.
They are, OF course, too huge and too
awkward to be easily handled in the
wild state, even If famed, or hobbled or
fastened up; and, moreover, they have
a dangerous way Of striking out with
the fore legs, a defensive habit which
In itself would render them formidable.
With the young, on the contrary, 10

perienced in the few instances in which;
they have been caught and brought 10

NELSON'S BILL GOES.
Conttnued rrom First Page.


for consideration section by section.
Then the friends of the bill might be
able to amend it SO as to win over some
of its enemies. He pointed out that If
the discussion went on for and against
all the amendments, the time of the
house would be taken up in one coutln-
ual round Of speechmaking. His words
were verified later on.
Mr.. German moved that when the
committee rise the bill be recon- mended
for indefinite p0stponement. AS rea-
sons for his motion he said he had
talked with good citizens, business men
and farmers, of both parties, and not
one had spoken in favor of the bill. On
the contrary, they were all opposed to
it. The author of the grain law of 1885
had told him that if he could have his
way now he would wipe out all the law
on the subject. Mr.. German asserted
the farmers of the state wanted free
and open market in this matter as in the
sale of hogs, corn, barley, oats and
other products. No other product of
the farm is sought to be regulated by
law, and he did not believe commodity
worth so much money as wheat should
be put under control of three men not
elected by the people and appointed
often only as a reward for the party
service. AS representative OF large
farming, as well as a city constituency,
he was decidedly opposed to the bill
and hoped it would be indefinitely post
pOned.
Speaker Lee again took the floor and
reviewed the legislation of 1885. He
held the bill had for its object the regu-
lation of interior markets by placing
the small elevators under state control.
But not, said he, in the arbitrary way
pointed out by the gentleman from ST.
Cloud. 1t aims simply TO provide an
arbitrator, who may be appealed to in
cases where dishonesty is alleged be-
tween buyer and seller of wheat
He instanced the banking law, under
which the bank examiner is empowered
to examine into the conduct of banks,
yet cannot interfere arbitrarily with
their management when they are
honestly conducted, and believed this
measure similar in its intent.
