vehicle, whether propelled by steam or
naphtha, by hitched-up quadruped or
Lestriding biped.
Our consul further suggests plan
for road improvements; OF, rather, for
raising the money for road improve
ment. 1t is the French plan, to wit,
wheel tax. In France all carriages are
taxed. Those with seats for one or two
persons, $40 year lin round numbers);
those with seats for three, SIS, and for
four, $50; while bicycles and tricycles
are taxed So each. These taxes are pay
able monthly, in advance, and must be
raid before the vehicle is allowed to go
upon the road. A fine revenue is thus
obtained. No doubt n similar system in
this country would also fill up the state,
county or township treasury. But we
don't want it. Such a tax would be par
tcularly ,exatious and annoying.
We don't need il. either. Our ordi-
nary system of taxation is sufficient.
We spend enough money--or its equiv
alent-on our roads now to make them
as good as those OF France. The trouble
is we don't spend it in the right way.
Our labor is misdirected. AT some sea
sens of the year, when farm work is less
pressing than usual, the farmer works
cut" his road tax. Generally it is about
the worst time of the year for the roads;
hut that doesn't matter. He takes his
horses anu pillow and scraper, plows up
some burrows in the gutter be tween the
wagontraDli and the sidewalks, and
scrapes the earth up into the middle
OF the road. That makes the road rough
md lumpy. You must drive over it at
walk, as over n newly plowed field. If
the weather remains dry il gets dusty;
II rain comes on it is mass of mud.
In course of time it gets worn down
fairly smooth and hard; and then it is
time to work out" some more taxes,
and scrape up some more sods and
loose dirt again.
That is what road-making has meant
In most country places. apl what it still
means On thousands Of Des OF high
way in the most highly improved states
OF this union. If instead OF that the
zane amount of work had been given
Tor the last IS years to laying drains
ana making telford, or macadam, or
even good gravel roadways, we should
to-day have network Of roads all over
these states on which any kind OF -e-
hicle could run with ease at any time OF
year. We need no carriage tax, nor
gold watch nor silver spoon tax. but
only an intelligent and systematic APP
plication OF our ordinary revenue TO
The making OF loads on scientific
plan.-N. y. Tribune.

RAISING THE CALF.

The Digestive Organs Must BE Given
Proper Consideration.
1t is of the utmost Importance
whether the calf is raised for the dairy
or for the butcher that its digestion be
kept in perfect condition the first year
Of its existence, so that it may become Il
profitable animal. so do this it Is
necessary to feed carefully and keep the
calf supplied with sufficient quantity
of food TO make 1t quiet and satisfied.
1t is desirable, of course, to keep the
calves pushing ahead, but it is best to
make haste slowly. In your eagerness
to show growth, do not overfeed, or you
will upset the digestive apparatus and
check development for time at least.
Determine the destiny of the calf, and
feed accordingly. II heifer, and you
are raising it for dairy purposes, do not
feed too much fattening food. If the
heifer once acquires the habit of put
ting everything on her back it is prac-
tically impossible to induce her to
change in favor of the milk pail. Cows
are just as much creatures Of habit as
men are, and we all know the difficulty
of reforming our ways. Therefore,
train the heifer in the way you wish
her to go. Give her such food as will
promote rapid growth. Bone and
muscle are the points to be aimed at.
A fat hcifer is apt to divert into flesh
the food intended for the production Of
milk. Therefore, cornmeal, timothy
hay and other carbonaceous foods are
to be eschewed. Oats, clover hay, wheat
bran. etc, will do much to stimulate
milk production. A few carrots or
other roots will give the occasional zest
required by the appetite.-N. Y. World.

FOR FRUIT GROWERS.

Too much land is the blame of most
fruit growing as well as farming.
Berries cannot be grown and mar
keted as easily as wheat, corn and pota-
toes.
The grower of berries for market
should realize that ordinary farm
methods are not sufficient.
intensified farming and concentra-
ton OF energy are the diamond drills
that bore out success.
Berry growing, like market garden
ing, requires the greatest concentration
of good soil, labor and thought.
Take counsel from books, papers and
practical growers, but let it be tenn
pered with your own best Judgment
and experimentation News.

Profitable Farm Products.

Milk, butter, poultry and eggs are
products that can be marketed every
month in the year. One is not COM
pcllcd to borrow money and wait until
a year rolls around before selling
such products. The successful men
in such lines are not those who begin
with large numbers, but who com
mence with few and breed for what
they want. Their progress may be
slow, but by beginning in a moderate
way, giving particular attention to the
use of improved breeds, they reach in
a few years u secure position, as they
have receipts coming in daily from
such products, and ore enabled to have
ready money ut all times.

FRUIT FOR The FAMILY.
How to Have Fair Variety All the Yoss
Around.

Around.
The question is often asked: "What
shall I plant in order to obtain full
supply of fresh fruit for family the
year round?" II IL difficult to give q
precise list, as In some seasons the crop
may be many times greater than In
others; and again, some will bear album
dainty and others fail in the same SEA-
son. The following, however. will
serve rs an approximation:
The earliest fruits, about the first
of summer. will be the Strawberries.
A selection of the most productive
sorts, we'll cultivated, with the runners
kept cut off, will afford about one quart
a day from each square rod for month.
Three or four square rods will, there
fore, give an abundant supply for q
family. Four or Ave hundred plants
will be sufficient for this extent Of
ground. These will be followed by the
earliest cherries, and by currants, rasp-
berries and gooseberries. Two dozen
bushes of each of the four best sorts OF
,currants, the same number of raspber-
ries and two dozen of gooseberry will.
If well cultivated, furnish an abundant
supply. One dozen cherry trees will be-
enough. Two or three dozen bushes of
the blackberry will supply quart II
day for some weeks toward the close Of
summer. Aprfcots, early apples and
early pears, and few of the earliest
plums, will commence the season of
abundance which, with the later varie-
ties of these fruits, will last till near
winter. Winter apples and pears, and
all the good keeping varieties OF the
grape, will continue the supply until
spring. Long-keeping apples, if placed
In good, cool fruit-room or cellar, will
continue until the commencement OF
the new supply of strawberries

Where Ignorance is Bliss!

There is at least one section of this
great republic that is free from the
turmoil of politics. 1t has just been
discovered that the reason Charlton
county, Georgia, did not send in any
returns was because no election had
been held, the people having entirely
forgotten that the country was to be
saved this year. If a continuance of
like conditions could be assured there
is no doubt but that there would be a
considerable emigration from other
parts of the country to Charlton coun-
ty. Just think of the exceeding peace
that must have reigned there while
the rest of the country was stirred up
to such degree over what were called
"the issues of the campaign" All the
time we were discussing and shouting
and parading and contributing to cam
paign funds, and while the air was
charged with prophecies of disaster
and the newspapers were filled with
appeals to parties to stand by their
guns, to meet the enemy unfinching-
ly, to redeem the country from the
gold bugs or the silver bugs, they
went about their usual occupations
and never knew there was a boy orator
or a Chicago platform, free coinage at
16 to l, or anything of the sort. IL
was clear case of ignorance and bliss,
the country was saved without their
ever imagining for a moment that it
was in danger.

THAT SHIPPING BILL.
Senator Elkins' Measure Not Likely TO
Be Heard OF Again Republican
ODpOsition.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Nov. 30.-The
st. Louis Republican platform in a
way Endorsed the scheme of discrim-
mating duties which is provided for
in the bill introduced last session by
Senator Elkins, known as Senate bill
No. 1892. The provisions of this
bill are that there shall be levied a
duty of 10 per cent on all free goods,
and 10 per cent ad valorem on all
dutiable goods imported into this
country in vessels OF foreign register.
These duties are to be in addition to
the duties which are laid in the reg
ular tariff schedules. The, alleged
purpose of this bill is to encourages
American shipping, but if it should
pass it would create havoc with our
commerce. The shipping interests
of the country are almost wholly ar
rayed against it, and will make a
strong and organized fight against
its passage this winter as In the Fiji
ty-fifth Congress. w hat trouble the
bill would create may be gathered
from the fact that its passage would
work as an abrogation Of almost all
our commercial treaties with the
Central and South American States,
as well as with some Of those of Eu-
rope. 1t is likely that several of
Senator Elkins' Republican coll
leagues will be found opposing the
bill, including Senator Sherman, OF
Ohio. In a letter to Mr. Frank S.
Gardiner, Secretary of the American
Shipping League, written in 1895.
Senator Sherman said: THE reason
why discriminating duties cannot be
adopted in our country is because in
our treaties with foreign nations,
think, without exception, there is an
express stipulation that no discrimi-
mating duties should be made against
