The Russian Tarir.

A St Petersburg dispatch, June
10, says special meeting has been
held at the ministry Of finance to con-
slider the question of effecting q re-
duction in the tariff on the home rail-
ways as a means of facilitating the ex-
port of grain from Russia. "The
opinion generally prevailed that in
stead of such diminution in the rates
it would be of greater advantage to
lessen the heavy costs at present en-
tailed by the conveyance of the grain
from the agricultural districts to the
the railways, and with this object it
was suggested that good roads should
be constructed as speedily as possible
to serve as feeders to the railway
lines. Should, however, convincing
proof in favor of freight-rates re-
duction be adduced, the latter, in any
case, would not come into force for
three months"

Cleveland records have been kept
Of the families assisted, in reference
10 their nationality. The returns
show conclusively that the Italians,
Poles and Bohemians are rs class
undesirable immigrants, and that in
most cases they ought not to be en-
titled to American citizenship. For
example, the Italians assisted were
half as many as the British, and yet
the latter element was more than
twenty times as great in point of num-
bers as the former. So the Germans
in the total population outnumber the
Poles by fifteen to one, and yet there
were only so per cent more German
families assisted than those which
represented Poland. The pauper ele-
ment was ten times as great, relatively
speaking, among the latter class as in
the former. The native population
naturally made the best showing of
all, but the figures are misleading in
regard to that element. All the ma
tive-born children of foreigners figure
in the census Us Americans, and the
real strength of the American popu-
lation was not nearly as great, count
ing adults or families, as might be
thought from the statistics of the
government enumeration. The Cana
dians made remarkably good show
ing. With half as large a share of the
total population as the Bohemians
they furnished one-twentieth part as
many applicants for relief The calls
for help from the Hungarians were
comparatively few, that nationality
making much better showing than
any other from the eastern and east
ern-central countries of Europe. The
Slavs, on the other hand, were very
burdensome to the Bethel in proper
ton to their numbers in the city.

Such places are stirred little with

covered. This time varies with the
season. A steady, early, warm spell
with warm rain, will thaw the soil
under the mulch quickly, while cool
cloudy weather will thaw only ex-
posed portions. After plants have be-
gun to grow few days under the
mulch, they must come to the light or
become white. have kept plants

when uncovered they were whit,

ten days is the limit of successful re-
tarding of bloom by my plan. Some
of this difference in time disappears
by the time the fruit ripens. as the
plant seems to make an effort to be
in season; but the heavier pickings
come several days later. Ihave saved
three crops from frost. by having three
days delay in blossoming, and get

The unmulched portions have fewer
and larger berries but not SO m any
quarts per acre as the mulched, and
the latter stand drouth better. Usu-
ally our last picking for market is
July 4. This season first sales were
made June "a and the last July 5. I
use all the mulching I can get on all
kinds of berries to save labor in keep

Possibilities of sub-IrrIration.

In their report on sub-irrigation ex-
periments the professors at the Ohio
station say: The first attempt was
with lettuce on very small scale,
and the experiment has been enlarged
until now about one-fifth of an acre
under glass, is occupied in conducting
this experiment to final demonstra-
ton. It has been found that the let
tuce rot may be largely controlled in
this manner. but by far the greatest
benefit arises from the greatly accel-
Grated growth Of the plants. By this
method of watering, a lettuce crop
comes to maturity from one to
two weeks earlier than by the old
method, and the crop is increased 80
to 100 per cent Radishes respond in
; like degree and cucumbers to nearly
the same extent, but tomatoes are less
benefited. .Smilax and carnations
thrive finely under this treatment.
Violets and roses have not been fully
tested, but the former especially seem
to delight IN the abundant and uni
form supply of moisture afforded by
sub-irrigation. 1t is too early to give
results in detail, but it will repay
interested parties to come long
distance to see the plan in full
operation. The method is very sim
pie and easily followed by any one, as it
does not necessarily involve much out
lay. The floor of the benches must be
made water tight and an old bench,
in fair state Of preservation, can be
remodeled for the work by simply
mailing laths over the cracks and fill
ing the small spaces between the
boards and laths with cement made
very thin. If new bottom is neces-
sary, matched flooring laid in white
lead may be used, but tile or slate
bottom is cheaper In the end. The
tile must of course be covered with
cement to secure q water tight bot
tom. This method of watering opens
up great opportunities in the ways of
vegetable forcing in midwinter. 1t

actly opposite the flame of lamp.
Make the hole small enough that so
that the egg will not go through, and
in dark room when you hold the egg
before the lamp you can tell at a
glance whether it is fertile or not. The
unfertile eggs are perfectly good for
use, as they do not change at all in a
week, but if you do not wish to use
them for any other purpose, they make
excellent food for the young chicks
for the first week after they hatch. In
most cases enough unfertile eggs will
come out from five or six filters so that
one nen can be sent back to the flock
to begin laying.

REGULAR FEEDING.

Another thing have learned is that
1t pays to feed the hens regularly
every day through the summer even
though they are not confined, but
have the range of the farm. / have
done this and my hens have paid q
large profit, while some of my neigh
bors who depended upon their hens
foraging for living have not been
able to get from Fifty hens enough
eggs for family use, while from 100
hens have sold in the last ninety
days eggs to the amount of sci, IS, and
all at lower price than has prevailed
for many years, the average being less
than IL cents dozen. During this

eggs, used not less than fifty dozen
eggs in the family and Matched ESQ
young chicks.
The cost of keeping these fowls for
the three months has been IS, as we
have fed one ton OF wheat screenings
for which paid 81, and two bushels
of cracked corn for little chickens,
and the rest of their living they have
gathered from four acres of orchard
and pasture of which they have the
range. They are not confined, but on
the side next the garden and dooryard
we have fence or feet high made
with base board foot wide and
common plasterer's lath, and early in
the spring we clip one wing, and we
have no trouble witch them in our
yard or garden. Many poultry
growers have fed wheat to their
fowls since the price has been

at the poor shooting, and selling a

An Experiment in MulchIng.

Prof. L. Fl. Bailey of Cornell uni
versity has been conducting some ex-
perimcnts to determine the value OF
mulch in retarding the ripening OF
small fruits He also obtained the
experiences of farmers on the same
point One Of them, Mr.. c. E. Chap
man of Peruville, N. Y, writes to
Prof. Bailey as follows:
Because of late spring frosts and
the glut of fruit from near Cayuga
lake. which is ten days earlier, was
compelled to grow late fruit or quit
The first venture, ten years ago, was
to spread thick mulch of wheat
straw over the Strawberries during
winter, but as there was some timo-
thy in it, next crop was badly dam
aged by the growing grass and weeds.
Next used coarse horse manure and
that completely ruined them, as the
horses had been fed hay and the seed
all grew. Next went into the swamps
and cut the long, coarse wide bladed
grass. There is nothing in 1t that
will seed and grow on dry land.
Coarse corn stalks are best Of any
thing have used, but I can not get
enough OF them. have used the
swamp grass for Eve years, and cut
this year about five tons. ! spread it
on after the ground is frozen hard in
early fall. 1t is thick enough TO
completely cover the plants
from sight and cover the entire
surface of the bed. In spring, the
plants come up through the mulching
unaided, and the mulch is not dis
turbed or removed until after harvest,
excepting in such places as prove too
thick for the plants to break through

THE Russian Thistle.

The Russian thistle has become
abundant over large extent of coun.
try in the Dakotas, and has also been
found in Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa,
Nebraska and Kansas. 1t has not yet
been reported as found in Illinois, but
it is easily possible that it may now be
growing in the state. The most prob
able location would be along the lines
of railroads in northern Illinois, al
though the seeds may have been in
grain or grass seed shipped from the
infested region. The plant is said to
have been brought to this country in
fax seed sown in southeastern Dakota
in 1878. Perhaps the expenditure of
one dollars worth of work in 1874
would have eradicated the now seri-
GUS pest 1t is now doubtful if it will
ever be eradicated 1t is very desir-
able that farmers generally should be
on the outlook and see that any plants
suspected Of being this so called thistle
are at once destroyed. When mature
in September or October the plant
looks somewhat like the common tum-
BILE weed of the west. It is often two
or three feet high and twice as much
in diameter. The color of the mature
plant is crimson. The number Of seeds
produced by one plant often reaches
many thousands. When the plant is
young it is readily eaten by farm ami
mails. While there is reason to hope
that this weed would not thrive SO
well in Illinois as 1t has in the north
west, the prevention of its getting
foothold In the state is a matter of
very great Importance. The u. s. de-
partment Of agriculture has recently
published bulletin quite fully dis
cussing the history and modes Of de-
strovinR the weed.
