A LITTLE boy lost his life recently in a
panic at a school in Chicago, a steam
pipe having burst. An exchange, re-
marking about this, says that in Mime
apolis it would be difficult for this to
happen, because the children are thor
oughly drilled to meet such emergencies.
"A fire alarm is sounded in every school
every day. The children are taught to
leave the room in a double or treble file,
as the case may be, and are marched
down the stairs, each class under the
commando Of its respective teacher. Thus
even wee tots acquire coolness and pres
ence of mind, and learn to see and under
stand that il they follow the teacher and
do not lose their heads the danger of
getting lost or hurt in real fire is very
slim. They are not permitted to run
down the stairways: the columns move
in q rapid, steady walk. Yet the Adams
school, for instance, which contains some
1000 pupils, is emptied in less than two
minutes."

The Toledo Blade asks how much the
democratic party has cost the country
during its thirteen months of national
power. Every manufacturer, every
wholesaler and every merchant who pre-
pared for the storm sure to follow the
threat of tariff for revenue only, can
answer for himself what it meant to him.
Every workman, who has been idle for
the same cause, can make an estimate of
the difference to him between the former
times and these. Bradstreet's figures
show a loss by reason of the reduced
volume of business. of an average of
81, OO0.OOO,OOO a month. But this is not
all. There is the falling of in the selling
price of land, the losses to the holders of

JUDGE ALBION IOURGEE Is taxed OF 0S
a candidate for representative in con-
gress from the Thirty-fourth district OF
New York. II anything was needed to
deepen his republican convictions it
came to him in the way OF experience
while he lived in the south after the war.
He thoroughly believes in free speech
and free men," the first rallying cry Of
the republican party, as it always has
been its watchword. Starting out on
the proposal to oppose the extension Of
slavery, they have ever defended the
rights and interests of all citizens, recog-
nizing the fact that in the battle Of life
(for it is battlel the ballot in the hand
of the voter, intelligently cast and hon.
estly counted, is far more powerful for
good than the leaden bullet. The ballot
is the freemsn's weapon in this govern
ment, effective against all the ills that
come from unjust laws and unjust ad-
ministrations. Judge Tourgee has prob
ably done as much as any one republi-
can now living to call the attention of
the country to the rank injustice done
by allowing the negroes to be counted
as part of the basis of representation in
congress and in the electoral college, and
yet depriving them in great part of their
political rights. Mr.. Tourgee recently
said: take away from the free-trade
democracy of the south the sixty odd
seats it holds in congress by means of
the denial Of free speech and the rights
of citizenship, and northern industry
would not be paralyzed by the threat of
repeal Of the protective tariff on which
the comfort and prosperity Of millions
of northern homes depend"

that he know personally the hundreds
OF scholars and throw around them the
living, active interest in their welfare
that will tend to keep them to their
proper work, than that he have a most
perfect record of the monthly or term
grades OF the, to him, unknown scholars.
He should make himself felt in the
community as an educator, the same as
our Chancellor Garfield is making his
influence felt through every educational
fiber Of the state, arousing our young
people and pointing, yes, and by his own
enthusiasm, leading them on, SO the
superintendent, if he does his work we'll,
will make his influence felt in every
home in the community where he labors.
The superintendent can do more than
any other one person to hold the boys
by his own personal influence and earn
est, untiring efforts.
The best, the only way to keep a boy
interested is to keep him busy, 50 busy
that he realizes he is working, and not
being entertained.
Too close holding to grades is another
discouraging feature, and Mr.. Stableton
suggests that work be done by the pupil
in grades where work is needed. Give
every possible encouragement and oppor-
tunity to learn, and place them where
their associations will be helpful.
The superintendent and teacher, who
are thoroughly alive, study carefully to
know what will interest the boys, not
only in their lessons, but in their games
and social life; being deeply interested
in what interests them, they lose no
opportunity for good to those under
their care.

Ny subscription to The PROGRESSIVE
FARMER is about to expire, as your
books will show. | am truly welded
to it and cannot see how can do wi h
out it. It is indeed and truth a great
informer and reformer, and for truth,
fulness it cannot be surpassed. 1 am
like unto a ship at sea without any
rudder, I mean in money matters.
Eleven cents is all I have, and that will
go for stamps and envelopes. Iexpect
in a short time to have I little money
as 1 have some pork to sell. I dislike
to miss a single number. 1 want your
paper and will have itas soon as money
comes to hand. It grieves me to see so
many duns in your paper. The truth
is the farmers have not got the money
or anything that will bring it, as you
are aware. We are a d~owntrodden set,
but 1 am proud that there is a better
day ahead. I am considerably cheered
up since the 9Th. You, among the rest,
deserve credit for the manly efforts dis
played, and may the good Lord prosper
you and our cause, spiritually and tenn
porally. My conscience tells me to ask
you to treat me as you treat others. L
think 1 have some better principles
than same others, but will leave this
much for others to say. Therefore it
is needless to give references, unless
desired. 1 suffice the subject. A hot
headed Democrat said to me, "well,
Womack, the Pops have swept the
deck" and wanted to know who was
going to run this government, RAIDS or
Pops. I told him Pops, of course. He
expressed dep sorrow 1 told him we

them and peace and prosperity behind
them. Very respectfully,

. Volume xiv of the American Berk-
shire Record will contain owe Sc per
cent. more pedigrees than any volume
heretofore published by this Associa-

Breeders desiring to have their Berk-

current year, are requested to send
their pedigrees to this Office by early
mail, and within sixty days, as there

The large demand for Berkshires at
steadily advancing prices is without
precedent. The superior merit and the
great and growing popularity of the
Berkshire, is an established fact in the

Of supplies In the sub-soil and the sur
face stratum is swept clean of its pot
ash and phoephoric acid. With a soil
in this condition fully twice the guam
tity of fertilizing elements must be
given than is ordinarily necessary. To
illustrate this suppose potatoes are
planted. A crop of seventy-fve bushels
per acre will be very fair. These will
require in themselves so los potash, 40
lbs. nitrogen and 30 lbs. phosphoric
acid. Notice that the potash is three
times the phosphoric acid and one and
one half times the nitrogen. These
quantities in ordinary fertilizer par
lance give the following analysis:
Ammonia pr CT.
Phosphoric acid (available) % pr ct.
Potash (actuaD ............... pr CT.
With this mixture 1000 lbs. per acre
should be applied. If such formula
cannot be found at hand, it may be re,
placed by 100 lbs. sulphate of potash,
200 lbs. acid phosphate and 300 lbs.
dried blood.
Apply this by broadcasting the pot
ash and phosphoric acid and working
in as deeply as possible with a cutting
harrow. Spread the dried blood in the
drill at the time of planting.
In order to get the land in thorough
condition for clover or alfalfa, it will
be necessary to make a good rich sur
face soil, fertile enough to support the
plant while it is sending down it's 30
feet long feeders into the sub-soil for
moisture and potash.
With thin soils, keep up a regular
and effective tillage. Rapid evapora-
ton on such lands is death to plant
growth. 1t chills the soil and kiln
dries it, with the formation of al i'm
pervious surface crust which keeps out
sunlight and air.

TREATMENT FOR WORN SOILS

With a thin exhausted soil, avoid
the deep roofing crops. Manure
heavily with mineral fertilizers high in
potash; nothing else equals, for this
use, kainit and plaster as they furnish
to the surface soil potash, lime, mag
nesia and sulphuric acid. Supplement-
this treatment with such stable manure
as is available, but not to exceed ten
tons per acre-more would be waste as
the soil is not in condition to assimilate
it. Broadcast COW peas and turn under
and after an application of 800 lbs.
kainit and $50 lbs. acid phosphate per
acre, we'll narrowed in, seed to rye
Turn this crop under the following
season and plant potatoes with liberal
m~anuring, after which the land may
be put in the regular rotation with
safety.
When the soil has become badly
worn, but still producing partial crops,
keep to deep roofing crops as long as
possible, that the stores in the sub soil
may be drawn from temporarily. At
this stage a shallow roofing crop such
as German milIet which feeds only
three or four inches, will impoverish
the soil terribly. The effect is that
when followed by a deeper crop, the
surface soil nourishment is insufficient

Correspondence of the Progressive Farmer.

Correspondence Of the Progressive Farmer.
CONCORD, N. @.
The people have risen in their might,
at the b~allot-box, and asserted their
rights to be governed by an honest leg
islature, composed of men elected by
the laboring men, regardless OF law
yers and cliques. The masses have
submitted to lawyer rule long enough.
It has been a rule of ruin. This has
not been a government of the people,
for the people and by the people; but
of the lawyers, by the lawyers and for
the lawyers. The under rail has got on
top and a Uice VerSG has been inaugu-
rated which the people designate JUS
tice Look out for the engine when the
whistle blows. The whistle bowed on
Nov. 9th, 1894, and the people NEAR
business-a redress of wrongs. There
is a great uprising for a redress. Look
at the fees and salaries of 1875 being
enforced on us now with cotton at five
cents and wheat at sixty cents. Will
any honest legislator contend for a mo
ment that a State or county officers
should charge the same fees as then,
when they are buying their supplies at
half what they paid in 1872 We have
been contending for justice, now let us
practice what we preach by making
fees in conformity with the low prices
of produce. The State and county off
Gals have been getting enormously
rich off the laboring masses, while the
masses have been getting poorer every
year. The masses have a chance,
through the legislature of 1895, to re
triev9 this order. Will we do it or will
we continue under the yoke3 Hope
the citizens, through their representa-
tives, will investigate this matter and
work for their constituents. I want to
hear from the people from Currituck
to Cherokee. J. w. MEHAFFEY.
