Is Winter Rye a Perennialg

Judge White Of Whitestown, Oneida
county, N. Y, was one of the first set
tiers west Of Albany. About so years
ago he tried an important experiment
with winter rye. He sowed a field of 40
acres and pastured it one year. The sec.
ond year he fenced off ten acres to grow
grain and pastured the remaining 80
acres The third year he fenced off an
other ten acres for grain and pastured
the remaining 20 acres. The fourth year
he fenced off ten acres for grain and pas
tured the last ten acres. The fifth year he
harvested crop of grain from the last
ten acres. Judge Whites experiment
demonstrated that winter rye is Il peren-
NAL so long as you prevent its jointing,
explains a correspondent Of The New
England Homestead. who says: eff you
are in hurry for pasture, l know of
nothing better than winter rye. | sOwed

If the farmer would have any of the
Injuries which are possible to those who
live in cities, there Is nothing that will
insure them so cheaply as a good ice
house, says Prairie Farmer. A suitable
building for holding ice may be built
wholly above ground, or partly below
and partly above, but III either case it
should have good drainage, and tight
roofing, and ample arrangement for ven
tilation. There should be space Of
from l8 to "a inches between the walls
and the cubes OF ice. This space is best
filled with sawdust. or in the absence of
this with fresh leaves or chopped straw.
The opening should be ON the north side
Of the building, and it is best if the
building Is not exposed to the sun or
winds.

More Potash Needed.

No doubt 1t is true that potash is the
great need Of soils where tobacco culture
has been the main crop for years. The
stone fruits, especially the peach. seem
to derive the greatest benefit from its
use. This is especially true when the
orchard is on sandy land. Potash in the
form of hard wood, fresh ashes or lib
eral application of kainit or other pot
ash salts aids materially in keeping the
trees in such a healthy condition that
they are undoubtedly less liable to be at
tackled by the yellows, or other diseases
of a similar character, says American
Agriculturist.

OUR NEW SENATOR.

Lucien Baker, Kansas new United
States senator, will prove a worthy sue
cessor of the lamented Plumb. Like
Plumb he is an Ohio-born boy and a
Kansas-madem man. Self-contained and
broad he is more than ordinarily cru
dite and prominent as lawyer, clean
rs politician and successful in a
business way, he comes wonderfully
well equipped to satisfactorily dis
charge the many onerous and perpleX-
ing duties of the exalted position to
which he has been chosen. He goes
to the office of United States senator
in the ideal way. The great honor was
unSought even unexpected, therefore,
his fitness being conceded, the more
satisfactory his choice becomes to the
people of the state. He will not be
heard from in a day, being one who
never moves until he is sure of his
ground, but when he once moves it is
worth all the irresistible force of q
man of power spurred on by over
whelming convictions. That has been
his marked characteristic as Il lawyer,
as n prosecuting attorney and as q
legislator. In accepting the nomina-
ton he made but one promise and that
was he would be senator for all of the
people of Kansas. Lucien Baker in
redeeming that promise will be more
and more the senator from Kansas
as the years speed away.

HOW IT HURT KANSAS.

The returning of aid sent from Penn
sylvania to the destitute in western
Kansas should prove an emphatic re-
futation Of all the tales of woe that
are being spread broadcast over the
country about Kansas. Our neighbOr
Nebraska was unfortunate enough to
have her crops destroyed by drouth.
and in the western portion of that state
there is doubtless great deal of desti-
tuition, as both in western Nebraska
and Kansas the agriculturalist has
mighty little to go on. III thirty-five
years Kansas has appealed once for aid
and she has never Outlived the dis
grace although some portions Of the
state have since contributed TO suffer
ers ia other states hundred times as
much as they received yet they feel the
stigma yet, and know how prone the
public is to believe anything disastrous
to Kansas. Down in New England
they still talk of grasshopper Kansas
and how they gathered up their cast
off clothes and sent them to Kansas
twentyone years ago. The best pay
ing investment Nebraska could make
would be to call in all her begging
committees and let the legislature make
an appropriation to provide for tile
wants of those who were rendered
needy by the drouth

ABOUT GOLD SHIPMENTS.

To the Editor of the Eagle.
What compels these unending gold ship
ments which in turn demand new bond
issues to replenish the treasury. and is
there no remedy? FARMER.
Its Il very long story, but briefly the
gold is shipped out to pay for what we
have brought in. The lower the Dem
ocratic tariff the greater will be the
amount of cheap European goods ship
ped into America and the more idle
Americans will there be. We know
of but one way to stop the shipment
of American gold to Europe and that
is through the adoption of the Repub-
lican protection policy. Put the tariff
high enough to stop the shipment of
goods i'll. and the shipment of gold
out viii not only cease but Americans
will find work in making these same
goods for which they will be paid the
money that we are now shipping out
Goods may be 4 little higher but wages
will not only be proportionately higher
but there Will be plenty of work. This
is the only remedy we know.

MoRRuLS BACKBONE.

The idea seems to have gotten abroad
among the people that Major Morrill,,
Kansa' new governor, will be in
clined TO be very mild and conserva-
tive chief executive. Doubtless the
impression comes of the governor S
well-known kindness of heart. But
six months will not have rolled around
before the average politician and
place seeker will find that no man ever
occupied the executive chair of this
state possessing the development or
backbone of Governor Morrill,. Cover
nor Anthony probably excepted. AS
an indication of the character Of bis
vertebral development will be found
in the substance of a talk which he
made TO a self constituted committee
who waited upon him at Topeka day
before yesterday for the purpose OF
persuading him to reconsider his an
nounced purpose of naming certain
gentlemen to constitute the police COM
mission of that city. Having heard
them through he replied: Il have
selected said commissioners and they
will be appointed, gentleman, and
Furthermore, If they fail of the duties
of the place 1 will appoint new COM
mission every month in the year II

tleness no man in the state of Kansas
has stronger convictions than Cover
nor Morrill,, and once convinced he

crook playing a game of cards with a
man on the sleeper, who might have
been farmer, and then again who
might have been something else. All

break and rushed out of the car and off
