Farm Notes.

The Illinois experiment station has con
Quoted for six years a series of trials to
determine the amount of seed cats that
should be used, sowing from one to four
bushels per acre by increasing one-half
bushel per plat. These trials show that
the best yields came from the uso of two
and half bushels to the acre, three
bushels giving nearly the same amount :;
indeed there was no important difference
whether two and onc-half, three, three
and one-half or four bushels were used.
AS might be expected the largest yield of
straw was found where three bushels were
sown
The Breeders Gazette says: If there is
anything more in sight that the Wiscon-
sin dairymcn want will they kindly ask
for it? Legislation just enacted at Madi-
son-O prohibits absolutely the manu-
facturc of filed cheese; (2) prohibits the
coloring of oleo in any way; 90 prohibits

lation OF these provisions; 0 provides
punishment for dairymen who water their
milk; 81 make it a misdemeanor to at
tempt by chemical process to sweeten sour
milk before delivery to the creamery; (9)
appropriates $4,000 for the state dairy
mems association. Evidently Wisconsin
farmers who have been following the
COW, are pursuing the frauds with signal
and sweeping success.
If the New England states will raise
only pure bred cattle, or high grades Of
the dairy breeds or beef and milk breeds,
they,will find cattle more profitable While
they can not compete against the West
in beef, they can raise good dairy cows at
profit, as the dairy interest must in
crease to meet the increasing market de-
mands, but scrub cattle like scrub horses
do not pay in any market, and the sooner
New England farmers get rid of their
scrub CATTLE the sooner will they find cat
tie of the right kind profitable and will,
rapidly increase their herds New Eng
land farm lands are too valuable to main
tain common scrub cattle They want
cows that will produce one to two pounds
of butter per day or large yield of milk.
Such cows always command good prices.

new ENGLAND PIANO CO.'S PLANT.

Every musician knows the instruments of the
NEW ENGLAND PIANO Company, but few
musicians or other citizens realize the magni-
tude OF the business which the company car
ries on. At the great factory on George
Street, ,Roxbury, SIX acres of floor space are in
cluded in all the buildings. every inch of
which is utilized. Here, too, q small army of
workmen is employed in the manufacture of
the instruments, and every individual is be-
lieved to be an expert at his particular line of
work. Perfection in every detail' is the
motto of the company, and the great care ex-
ercised in manufacture, and the rigid inspec-
tion of each instrument on completion, assure
the purchaser that the slightest defect has
been avoided, and the result is the well known
quality OF the comp.ny's goods. Beside tn
factory, and equally important to the interest
OF the company and the public, is the great
six-story building at 200 fremont Street,w
the salesrooms are located A call there is
well repaid by the sight, even if there is no
intention of buying. 1t would be hard to
imagine a more desirable instrument than a

in the buildings necessary for the manufac-

several days all efforts to induce her to

feared she would starve. One morning
she was seen standing by n barrel of water
from which she was in the habit of drink

The Proposed Railroad from Lewiston Through
Augusta, Thence to Camden.

Some time ago the Journal published
an article regarding the building of
line of railroad from Lewiston, through
Augusta to Camden. At that time the
Journal WAS informed that the Camden
people were somewhat intcro; ted in the
matter.
The people of that sea coast town have
grown warm over the proposition and at
business mems meeting, last Friday
evening, vote was taken regarding the
plan of building road as proposed and
the result was unanimously in favor of
such line. A committee was appointed
to confer with the owners of the charter
and ascertain what arrangements can be
made to promote tho building of this line.
Probably some of tho Camden people
will visit this city during the week and
consult with our business men regarding
the proposed railway. Developments will
be awaited with great interest.

our German Ambassador.


WASHINGTON, June 17.-Complaints
have reached here from the American
colony in Berlin concerning the conduct
of General Theodore Runyon, the United
States ambassador to Berlin. It is said
that the New Jersey statesman has not
only violated the rules of the service and
the principles of Jefersonian simplicity,
but has gone 80 far as to make the en-
bassy the laughing. stock not only of the
American colony but of the Germans as
well. His latest innovation has been
a regal court carriage, which he had ex-
pressly built. He drives through the
streets of Berlin with two funkles bal
ancing their anatomies on limited foot
board, the driver on tripod, seated on
the American flag, ostentatiously spread
over his seat, with all sorts of myster-
ious crests and emblems, the meaning of
which must remain Chinese mystery
to the American voter.
The general has also resurrected an
old uniform which he uses instead of
traditional evening dress, and the Ger
man officials are in ferment over the
discovery that it does not represent his
present rank in the regular army of the
United States.
