DUCTION OF THE SUBSTITUTE
Washington. Dec. 2-When the House went
into Committee Of the Whole TO resume dis
cussion OF the Currency and Banking BILL this
afternoon, Mr.. Johnson Nep.. Ind said that he
had been Informed that at meeting OF the
jority members Of the Committee Banking and
Currency last night substitute for the pending
bill had been agreed upon and would be introduced
into the House at some future time, and that the
consent OF the Secretary OF the Treasury had been
obtained to this parliamentary practice. II his in
formation were correct. Mr.. Johnson said, he de-
sired suggest that the substitute be presented
now that those who addressed the House might
inte.ligently discuss the proposition which was TO
come before them for their votes.
Mr. Springer dem, IllJ responded that subst-
tutc which had been agreed upon BY the Democratic
members OF the committee as representing their
views would DC introduced by him some time dur
ing the afternoon that It might be printed and laid
before the House for its Information.
Mr. Pendeion Dem. W. Va) spoke In favor Of
the object sought to be accomplished by the
of the bill, a reform and reorganization OF the
roncy and banking systems Of the country. He
said that the proposed bill was not perfect. but It
promised to give some relief and should be APP
proved
Mr. Russell (Rep., Comm opposed the bill 1t was
intended 10 kill the National system OF banking and
currency 1t was distinctly and emphatically a
Democratic measure. No such plan had been pro-
posed suggested until after the late election. and
IT was drawn to favor that section Of the country
in which, until that time. II had been supposed the
Democratic party was impregnabe and forever In
trenched. Compared with the haste with which this
bill had been and being rushed through the

ROTATION OF CROPS!
The Methods Best Adapted to Presefs
the Fertility OF the Soil.

The Methods Best Adapted to Preserve
the Fertility of the Soil.
To preserve the fertility of the SOIL
three methods are being praeticed oy
our best farmers, viz: Rotation OF
crops, application of commercial Ter
tilizers and use of barnyard manure.
Though in general all three are blend
ed together. the first is of primary I'M
portance, as it costs nothing but labor
of mind in determining the relative
value of crops produced and CONDITION
in which soil is left. Systems OF rota-
ton necessarily vary in different local
tiles to meet the demands OF soil, pre-
cipitation, temperature, narket
and special crops The Calllor-
MIA farmer must leave oat clover,
timothy and corn. The Kansas farm
er clover and all the tame grasses.
The southern farmer most of the cereals
but has c6- peas as substitute Tor
clover. From experience and observa-
ton from Pittsburgh to San Francisco
in no part of the United States has the
farmer so wide field for crop rotation
as in the Ohio valley.
On the uplands of southwestern Ohio
three systems are practiced by our best
farmers. Those on the heavy oak soils
who make timothy hay speciality fol-
low four or five-year rotation. Plant
corn on timothy sod, which is sown in
wheat and seeded to timothy. Pasture
first year lightly. second and third year
NOV, then back to corn. etc. Tho
corn ground is generally manuied
heavily and commercial fertilizers used
on the wheat. In this system corn
must be cut and the wheat is late sown.
Another system where wheat and corn
are the special crops is wheat sown on
corn ground plowed in June, this seeded
in clover, first crop cut, second plowed
under for corn, etc. By this rotation
oats are left out. A system that suits
our wants. where ten milch COWS are
kept for butter. is as follows: Corn or
clover, followed by oats; one-half OF
oat stubble seeded to clover, the other
half sown in wheat and seeded to clover
and timothy. Clover is cut first year
and clover and timothy pastured first
year and cut second and third. BY this
system we have timothy sod for corn
every fourth year, and have timothy,
corn and oats for seed for horses, clover
hay and fodder for nilch cows and
sufficient straw for bedding. Our clover
sod in generally manured for corn and
use commercial fertilizer for wheat,
which will pay in way of good stand
of clover and timothy.-National Stock

DIVERSITY OF CROPS.
An Important Matter to the Young Farm
ers of the South.

An Important Matter to the Young Farm
ers Of the South.
The young farmers throughout the
south have begun to diversity their
crops, and the result is even more salts
factory than they had anticipated.
The growing of long-keeping apples
in southwestern Virginia is becoming
one of the most profitable industries in
that locality. The Albemarle pippin is
in the lead as to varieties. Next comes
the York Imperial or johnson apples
and the Wine Sap.
There is no better illustration of the
loss which occurs from the careless
method of marketing farm crops than
this: For every twenty-five cents saved
by the use of only two wires instead of
three in baling ton of hay, the farmer
who bales the hay for shipment to mar
ket loses one dollar. The hay does not
sell as well as when the bales look trim
and neat This is what the dealers in
hay say, and they ought to know.
The Lewis Brothers. of Talladega
county, Ala, who are the owners of n
large track of cotton-producing land.
propose to have the laborers consume
the farm products, manufacture all
that they need to wear, convert the
cotton into cloth and refine the cotton
seed oil. SO that everything raised will
reich the market through the product
of the mill. In this way the services
of the middlemen and the cost of ex-
change will be dispensed with. This
is gratifying evidence of the establish
ment Of a new order of things in the
genial climate of northern Alabama
We have reached a stage in Ameri-
can farming when it is found that the
large farms, take them acre for acre,
do not pay as well as small ones The
extensive or superficial ''cut and
cover" plan is giving way to
ttihlo intensive thorough culture
one. Muscle is giving brain the prece-
dence. Skilful culture, including judi
eious fertilization and such success
sion and rotation of crops that the soil
becomes each year more and more pro-
ductive, is the new and better way.
Truckers or small farmers who are
fortunate enough to live near state

experiments tried on the same kind e

pocket. New methods are not justifia-
