CULLEN SURE TO WIN.

The Democratic city ticket of st. Paul, with
o. o. Cullen, is the strongest ticket ever put
in the field. Personal acquaintance with a
majority of the candidates enables the News
to insure st. Paul the best government it has
ever had.-Rock County News.
The Democrats Of ST. Paul have nominated
0. 0. Cullen for mayor. He is one of the
cleanest men in st. Paul, and will give Mr..
Doran an uncomfortably close race.-Delano
Eagle.
st. Paul's city election is not likely to be
one-sided, after all. The Democrats appear to
have regained their heads and have put up a
really respectable ticket, and one that will
command Votes.-Wabasha Herald.
0. 0. Cullen has been nominated by the
Democrats Of st. Paul for mayor The cam
paign promises to be a red-hot one from start
to inish.-Le Sueur Sentinel.
Frank B. Doran was nominated last week
by the Republican convention for mayor of
st. Paul. Mr.. Doran is an excellent man.
from what we can find out, but the choice of
st. Paul citizens was undoubtedly Hon. II. A.
Castle. The Democrats are jubilant over Dor
ans selection.-Delano Eagle.

CHICKENS IN LONDON.

To the Editor Of the Globe.
90 WIZ you please answer through the columns
In the city of London prohibiting the keeping
OF chickens or not, and oblige.
March 81. 1896. AN Ignoramus.
We have been unable to find, after a.
prolonged search among the authori-
ties, any prohibition Of keeping chick
ems in that city. AS keeping chickens
is one Of the inherent and inalienable
rights Of man everywhere, essential to
his pursuit Of happiness, it follows
that, by analogy to the presumption
Of innocence until proof of guilt is
made, it is to be presumed that chick
ems are kept in London. This presump-
ton finds strong support from sundry
other known facts. 1t is well known.
for instance, that in time past certain
gentlemen in this country, connected
with incipient railway enterprises, have
met with no difficulty in finding
spring chickens" in London, which,
Of course, could not have been done
unless they were kept there. A SINH
lar experience has been had by gentle
men from the Rocky mountain states
who owned mines possessing immense
possibilities, and who have also graft
fed their appetites for spring chickens
in that city.
Then again, one finds In their stock
markets quotations of Cochin Chinas.
which can only refer to chickens. more
or less mature, 5of that well known
breed. Shanghais are also, by similar
evidence, shown to be among the
chickens kept in that enterprising city.
The worldwide commerce Of England
has undoubtedly brought Leghorns
and Brahmas home to diversity the
poultry industry, and that accounts for
their appearance in the stock reports.
Lately we have noticed the mention
of 'Kaf1rs," which, we take it., indi-
Gates that in South Africa there has
been found a new variety Of chickens
over which Englishmen have gone fair
ly daft. Anyway, immense quantities
Of them have been thrown on the mar.
kets and commanded fancy prices. So
we conclude that it is perfectly safe
to assure "Ignoramus" that chickens
are kept In the city Of London.

BECAUSE 1T IS NOT A LIVE ISSUE.


We published Saturday a communi-
cation from Mr.. MacEwen, commenting
on an editorial in the G o b treating
of what a writer in Garden and Forest
deems the dangerous tendencies of Pin
greeism. We do not discover in Mr..
MacEwenNs letter any indication that
he disagrees with the view taken by
the Gil e, and his complaint, If any,
is that we did not say the "last word"
that is to be said on the topic of land
occupation and ownership. Tho
lob e finds plenty of occupation in
the discussion of present questions
without taking up one that. whatever
it may develop later, is not among the
questions that are being considered by
the people as those to be settled soon.
we are aware that it is being studied,
and Is making a remarkable progress,
but other and more importunate, If less
important, questions obstruct the way,
and must first be removed. Just now
the issue is between paternalism and
lnd1vldual1sm as embraced in the tar
III, the currency, and in the application
OF the powers of government, national,
state and municipal, and this must
be decided and the way cleared before
the question referred to by Mr.. Mac
Even can come on for it's hearing. On
1t we have very decided opinions, and
when that time comes we will be glad
to express them. Meantime, Mr.. Mac
Even should remember that there is
no use in going chestnuting until the
frost has opened the burs.

JUST one more evidence of the necessity of direct line from San Diego to Yuma, and thus to the east, is furnished by the informa- tiOn that now comes from A. H
 Butler to Gen, Webb concerning the shipment oF cotton to Japan
 By such line saving of 500 miles of railroad haul could be made, and such a saving would in- sure traffic to this port and city But Buffers point as to what could and should be done only Illustrates what the railroads do not want to have done Butler says 300 miles of haul can be saved. The railroads, being in the railroad business, do not want 10 have 500 miles of haul saved. They are not in the haul-saving business. When the Southern Pacific was built from Yuma through an interminable stretch of desert northward-and at great expense ot construction and operation was kept away from San Diego and its harbor-lt was not to save but to make a long haul If the haul is now saved, it will be done through a mighty effort by San Diego-uniezs some event should occur to change the entire railway map of the southwest and and the entire policy of operation, and this might come about through the construction of the Nicaragua canal, or some other short isthmian line which will make the shortest possible American transc0ntinentaI line the thing to be desired above all others. In the meantime, how ever, the thing for San Diego to do is to peg away as best it can on the effort to secure the line direct to Yuma, and the more direct the line the better it will be for San Diego. .,C177 D;e0o S,l52

EFFECT OF DETAssELING CORN.

At various times it has been thought
that the removal of the tassel Of the corn
plant would result in a larger yield. This
was based on the admitted fact that a
large amount of energy is used in the de-
velopment of the flower and the produc-
ton of pollen. A number of tests were
made to determine the facts in the case.
OF course, it was necessary TO allow
enough pollen to be produced TO fertilize
the silks. In most of the tests. therefore,
the tassels were removed from every al
ternate row-pulled outas soon as they
appeared-or three rows were detasseled
and one left untouched. At the Cornell
station detasseled corn produced a slight
~ greater yield during the first two years,
but the third year there was practically
no benefit. In Nebraska, detasseling re-
slted in decreased yields. Here the tas-
sells were cut off instead of being pulled
out. as was the case in New York. In
Maryland the yield was decreased by the
practice. In Kansas the detasseled fields
produced slightly the most corn. In Illi-
nos, tests were made during two years.
In both cases it was evident that no
greater yield was produced by rows that
had been detasseled. 1t will be seen,
therefore, that the question has by no
means been decided, but must be more
fully investigated. one thing, however,
is certain-the ordinary farmer can with
profit leave the matter for experiment sta
ton men to determine. There evidently is
not enough benefit in detasseling for the
commercial grower to practice it, and if
better seed can be produced let trained
Investigators prove it.-American Agri-
culturist.
