FARM AND GARDEN
An Economy Our Land Tillers
Should Look After.
HAY MULCH FOR FERTILIZING

Wishing to use piece OF land that
was apparently most barren, worthless
plot OF ground, one OF my nelghbors
tried some experiments. The only veg
citation apparent was scanty growth OF
daisies, few buttercups and large
quantity of sour grass or held sorrei'
The soil was of hard clay, and in drouth
it was baked to the depth OF five or SIX
inches, and possibly more; and l have
seen a heavy shower, lasting several
hours, pour down upon it until 1t seemed
as though it would deluge the whole sur
face, but to my surprise, alter 1t had
ceased raining for two hours, this ground
seemed as hard and dry as it had been
before.
Two years ago last summer this land
was broken up, MANFRED and planted
with potatoes, which yielded almost
nothing. But it was here that my neigh
Dor tried a new plan, at least new to me
and possibly many others. He had par
TALLY piece of land close by,
and during the summer, when the pota-
toes were hoed for the last time. he cut
the grass on the meadow, and alter 1t
had dried he spread it along through the
drills between the rows of potatoes. lie
spread the cutting as before; and by the
time the potatoes were ready for digging
the hay had settled well down on the
surface, and the hay was covered with
the soil when the potatoes We're dug.
The next spring it was plowed much
easier. appeared more friable than be-
fore, and after tilling it well he sowed a
varied assortment of vegetables, and
among them peppers, which, when ready
| for picking, were the largest in this VI
cinity. Some of the vegetables did not
do quite as well as they would had they
been in other soil; but, taking all IN all,
| he had a surprisingly fine crop on his
| hay fertilizer, which he continued to APP
ply whenever the meadow was ready Tor
cutting.
Last summer, much to my surprise, he
put several trenches through the lowest
part of the clay bank, which broke up
even better than before, and set out some
400 or 500 plants of White Plume celery,
using a liberal quantity of well-rotted
BARNARD manure. Every one knows
about the drouth we experienced last
summer, but he continued his applica-
ton of hay and the result was marvel
Gus. The hay protected the scorching
sun from striking directly on the soil,
and all the moisture was available tor
the plants. To be sure, there still re-
manned Jumps of earth which were eX,
ceedingly hard, but these were utilized
in telling manner. In hoeing his eel
cry he would set these hard Jumps OF
clay around each plant, about two inches
away from the stalks, and carefully draw
the looser and finer earth up to it. The
result was that he had some OF the finest
celery have ever seen, and it was as
clean and white when taken from the
ground as though it had been carefully
washed and scrubbed. Agri-

THE ANrI-LorTERY LAWS.
Religious Bodies Urge the Passage of
Senator Hoar's Bill.


WASHINGTON, July 30.-A strong de-
mand is being made by religious bodies
for the House to pass the anti-lottery
bill which Hoar introduced in the Sem
ate, and which passed that body. Brod-
erick of the Judiciary Committee, who
reported the bill to the House Friday,
has received hundreds OF letters urging
the passing of the bill, and the other
members of the committee have been
the recipients of much correspondence
on the subject. Most of this has come
from religious organizations, but many
individuals have written. While the
present anti-lottery laws were strongly
drawn to prevent the use of the mails
for lottery business, the measure now
before Congress goes much further, in
wiling the authority of Congress over
foreign commerce and commerce be-
tween the States. The penalties pro-
vided for by the pending bill are very
heavy, the first offense being punishable
by Imprisonment and by fine of not
more than 81 ,000 or both, and after the
first ohense by imprisonment only. The
act embraces persons who cause to be
brought within the United States from
abroad or deposited or carried in the
mails or carried from one State to an
other any paper purporting to be or
represent ticket, share or interest in
any lottery or similar enterprise, or who
cause any advertisement of such enter
prise to be brought into the United
States, deposited in the mails or carried
from one State to another. 1t stipulates
that no part of the bill shall be con-
structed as repeating any former act for
similar purposes.
Some opposition was raised in the Jul
dietary by those who argued that the
bill would if enacted be an infringement
upon personal rights. As a concession
to this sentiment an amendment was
inserted providing that the contraband
goods must be brought into the United
States for the purpose OF disposing OF the
same. Whether the bill will receive
consideration from the House this session
depends upon how long the session
is protracted. Its friends are confident
that it will eventually become a law.
They point out that the publications
which have been made to the effect that
it would interfere with church fairs
and similar enterprises are unfounded,
since Congress has no jurisdiction in the
matter, except over the mails or in the
matter OF commerce between foreign
nations and the United States.

A NEGLECTED CHANCE.
Another Economy Our Land Tillers
should Look After.


should Look After.
A writer in the American Agriculturist
saws: 81 suppose that each year am Civ
ing away a thousand pounds of honey;
for bees get good deal from raspberry
gardens and from nearly all our fruits
when in flower. Clearly here is another
economy that our land tillers should
look after more carefully. 1t is not al
together as market product that honey
is valuable, but as food product for
home consumption. Its a concentrated
food of the greatest value. Every effort
should once more be put forth to make
farm life Independent. So long as it is
dependent on markets, the drop in the
prices of wheat, hops, corn and apples
bankrupts us. A great diversity OF
crops, and purpose to raise as far as
possible our own necessities, enable us
proportionally to be Independent OF t1uct-
uating prices. But the bee industry is
to be commended as a complementary
necessity to successful fruit growing.
Many of our grapes are not self-polleniz-
ing. Some of our pears are of the same
deficient nature. All fruits are more or
less dependent on bees to carry pollen
from one to another. have no doubt
but the possession OF a small house OF
bees in the orchard will be worth thou
sands of dollars to man who grows
half a dozen or more acres OF fruit.
Some years the need OF this help is not
so great as in others, but there are years
when our fruit crop is lost for lack of
pollenation. The year 1890 was OF this
sort; but that year | saw two small
orchards loaded with apples. Each
orchard had few hives of bees. The
cold rains prevented any general and
extensive aid from insects until it was
too late. This cooperation of industries
is OF vital importance. 1T holds the key
of the situation. A complete home ought
to include the production of nearly all
that we need for food and comfort and
clothing. In reality we waste, or allow
to go to waste, large part OF the natural
products of the land. Honey making as
an industry should not be separated
from fruit and flower growing, or from
general farming. The art is easily
learned, and in family of six persons
there will generally be found one who
finds especial pleasure in bee culture
Fruit, flowers and honey are perfect
and natural combination of industries.
1t is not the amount of money that we
can make from honey that settles the
question, but the fact that what honey
we secure is a desirable supplement to
our income, and is so much withdrawn
from waste. We have the honey if we
have the flowers, but we need the bees
as extractors and manufacturers, who
will store it very carefully for future
use"

trustees for the accomplishment OF that
object. Their breach of faith is un-

excuse is that they did only that which
other companies did and followed the
common custom of railway builders and
