Standing in Court. -
WASHINGTON, Jan. 24.-The decision
Of the Knights of Labor to attempt to
get an injunction this week restraining
Secretary Carlisle from issuing new.
bonds is still subject of comment in
treasury department circles. There is
practically no change in the opinion
heretofore noted in these dispatches tn /
such proceedings will not have any stand
Ing in court. Certainly this opinion pre-
vailed as to the simple question of as
sailing the authority of the secretary to
issue bonds under the act of 1875, to re-
plenish the gold reserve. AS to whether
the money thus obtained could be US.
for other purposes than redemption o.
greenbacks was admitted to be
An Undecided GU ,stion.
AS the secretary has used the so-called
gold reserve to the extent of $500, O00,-
goo, and has no one has sought by legai
methods to question its actions it seems
to the treasury officials that this matter
need give him no concern, 1t is held
by some treasury officials thai
there now exists no gold reserve,
the fund that originally made it up
having been more than exhausted by the
redemption of United States and treas
ury notes. An officer of the department
IN speaking to reporter regarding tho
proposed action Of the knights of Labor
pointed out the serious effect upon the
governments business that would re-
suit II such proceedings should have a
standing in the courts. The result
would be that the governments hands
would be frequently tied and its bust
ness operations would be seriously hand
icapped, -' "

ROTATION OF CROPS.
Composition OF Soils md Way to nialn-
tain Their Fertility.

tum AutiV
AS the result of the analyses of $50
samples Of soils, the Minnesota station
has issued a bulletin of which the fol-
lowing is summary,
/. The continued cropping of soils to
grain crops only without any system OF
rotation or other treatment is telling
severely upon the original stock of half
decomposed animal and vegetable mat
tiers, and nitrogen. Soils which have
produced grain crops exclusively for ten
or fifteen years contain from third to
half less humus and nitrogen than
adjoining soils that have never been
plowed,
2. Soils which have been cropped
until the organic matters and humus
have been materially decreased re-
tain less water and dry out more
rapidly than when there is large
amount of organic matter present in
the soil
8. Soils which are rich in humus
contain larger amount of phosphates
associated with them in available
forms than the soils that are poor in
humus
4. Soils which are rich in humus and
organic matters produce a larger
amount of carbon dioxide that acts as
solvent upon the soil PARTICLES and
aids the roots in procuring food
5. 0ne-half OF q sandy knoll, heavily
manfred with well-rotted manure, con.
tanned nearly quarter more water
during six weeks drought than the
other half that received no manure
g. The supply of organic matter in
the soil must be kept up, because it
takes such an important part, indi-
rectly, in keeping up the fertility of
the soil. A good system of rotation, in
Guiding sod crops and well.prepared
farm manures, will do this, and will
avoid the introduction and use OF COM
mercial fertilizers, which are now cost
ing the farmers of the United States
over t35, 100000 annually 1t will not
do TO wait until this question forces it,
self upon us.
T. A rotation of crops will soon be
necessary on account of the peculiar
composition of some of the soils and
the corresponding sub-soils, especially
those in which the surface soils are
richer in phosphatcs and nitrogen
while the sub-soils aru richer in potash
and lime, BY means of rotation, the
full benefits of the strong points Of both
the top soils and the sub-soil will be
| secured

PRACTICAL RESULTS.
The First Year In Poultry Raising Causes
Many Surprises.

The First Year In Poultry Raising Causes
Many Surprises.
The best informed persons, those
who may have taken advan tage of the
experience If others, and who may
have resorted to all the literature to
be obtained, will also find, when they
have passed through the first year, that
there were a thousand and one facts
that could not be detailed or explained.
In fact, many things occur with one
which may not happen with others,
and which may not occur again, but
every transaction is contribution to
the knowledge of the poultry man.
1t is better to expect nothing the
first year. Something will be gained,
however, and that is experience. In
the management of large numbers
there are many matters which will
happen and which cannot be discovered
except by daily observation. Every
poultryman, whether beginner or
not, is capable of originating some
thing, and he is as liable to make dis
covery that will revolutionize all pre-
vious theories and methods as is the
veteran. The beginner who has read
poultry literature has, however, a
great advantage over him who has de-
pended on experience alone, for litera-
ture is really the published experience
Of others. There is no pursuit, how
ever, hat does not require the practice
, of the theories to make them more IA
miliar and better understood In the
poultry business one has to understand
not flock only, but the individual
| mem bers Of the flock.
Practical results always point to sue
cess The first year may be an entire
failrre, with loss of time, capital and
i labor, but the cause of the failure may
be discovered, and knowledge of the
cause may be of more value than the
pecuniary loss One must not estimate
the results by the operations of a
! single year. Hundreds of farmers have
| failed with crops one year and been
successful the next owing to more ia
vorable conditions the second year; ano
the poultryman who has failed, We;
discovered the cause and learned
more about how to manage may, il
the end, be benefited by his losses
as he will be more careful and be better
informed in regard to future opera

FOR HAULING HAY.
Cheap and Simple Rack and Some of
Its Advantages.

A cheap and Simple Rack and Some of
Its Advantages
The hayrack shown in the illustra.
ton is one which used last summer
1t is Is feet long and feet wide. Two
inch lumber is used FOR the stills and
cross pieces, the former being inches
and the latter 8 inches in width. Three
boards are nailed or bolted ON top OF
the cross pieces on each side of the
rack A 2x4 scantling long enough to
reach from the outer edge Of the rack
to the inside of the boards Is bolted
edgewise on top of the two hind cross
pieces. An inch strip must be placed
upon the hind cross piece to bring it up
to level with the one in front of the
hind wheel. The cross pieces are now
high enough SO that when the boards
are placed upon them they will be out
of the way of the wheel. This makes
rack which is nearly level, being only
inches higher behind than in front
This rack Is advantageous in that the
distance between the stills is smaller al
the front end than at the rear end oil
the rack, thus allowing shorter turns
than when they are mad e parallel. In
