KING SOLOMON'S NOTION
That "'There is nothing new under
the sun" does not always convey the
truth. Especially is this true as re-
CARDS the new composite cars now
operated daily via The Chicago,
Union Pacific and Northwestern
Line between Salt Lake City and
Chicago.
These handsome Buffet Smoking
and Library Cars are entirely new
Throughout, of latest design, contain
all modern improvements, and are
well supplied with writing material,
the leading daily papers, illustrated
periodicals, magazines, etc.
Tho fact that these cars run daily
via ..The Overland Limited" and
that the Union Pacific was the line
west Of Chicago to inaugurate this
service should commend itself to all.

Washington, March 4.-Tie very
clear and exclusive statement by the
Associated Press Of the views of the
administration upon the question OF
recognizing the Cuban belligerents
created great interest in the house to-
day. Several members who + en-
thusiastic for Cuba suggested that the
resolutions should be recopsidered,
and changed from concurrent to joint
resolutions, so that president Cleve-
land would be compelled to sign them
or veto them. but this proposal was
discouraged by the leaders in foreign
affairs. 1t is pointed out that the ad-
min~istration practically holds the
same position that President Grant
maintained during the 10 years rebel
lion. Most of the constitutional au-
thorities concede that recognition is an
executive act, so that the friends of the
resolution find little ground for hope
that recognition will be extended until
the insurgents win a decisive victory.
or materially change their plans of
campaign and government. Members
of the foreign affairs committee say
that congress has done all that is in its
power in expressing. by the medium Of
resolutions it's convictions upon the
policy which the government should
pursue. i,
Mr.. Adams of Pennsylvania, chair
man of the subcommittee which in
v~estigated the resolution, says that 1t
is an statement that the in
surgents do not hold territory nor
maintain a government. They have,
he says. actual possession of most of
the island, and the central govern
ment, while not established in any city,
has headquarters in the mountains. In
addition they have, IN every province
of Cuba, officers similar to the French
perfects, who collect the taxes in the
provinces. 1t was true, he said, that
the newspaper reports from Havana
show that the insurgents have been
losing Dove: lately, bat he pointed out
that the facilities for gaining authen-
tic information by the newspaper cor-
respondents are much under
General Weyler's administration than
they were under Campos, and that the
correspondents can no longer visit the
insurgent forces as they did before.

Progress in Agricultural Matters.

Quoting all kinds OF business 1T is not
strange that similar changes are taking
place in the business of farming, and
the person who would successfully till
the soil must adopt up-to-date means
and methods. Half century ago farm
ing consisted simply of planting, Guilt
waiting and harvesting crops, depending
upon fertile soil for the elements of
fertility and upon muscular effort of the
most intense sort to manipulate, harvest
and market the crop. The farmers
mental powers were given little opportu-
nifty for development in following this
kind of farming. The crops and stock
were not attacked by injurious insects
methods of husbandry brought success
to the tiller of the soil. The business OF
farming has within half century I'M
dergone even a more radical change
than any of the productive industries
and calls for the exercise of the highest
type of skill and good judgment. This
is called for in numerous directions and
the grade of success attained depends
largely upon the mental equipment Of
the farmer for his chosen line of produC-
ton. We see this manifested in his abil
ity to supply fertilizing material for his
crops at the least possible expense in the
form of barnyard manure, chemicals, or
green manuring with nitrogen, s altering
crops; in his knowledge regarding the
proper rotation of crops SO as to secure
for the use of each subsequent crop the
best and most economical condition Of
the plant food in the soil; in the use Of
improved machinery adapted to the use
to which it is applied and in the intelli-
gent handling of nicely adjusted and
delicately made machines of cOmpli-
Gated construction; in the proper pre-
paration of the seed bed in the econom-
ical harvesting Of crops and the feeding
of the same to amin ais bred for special
purposes to such an extent as to require
intelligent handling; in thousand other
ways which are essential to modern
farming and which are largely depend
ent upon mental power for execution.
1t would be as unreasonable to expect to
succeed following in the hard beaten
path of the past as it would be for the
stage coach to be applied to the business
performed by the railroads today. 1t
simply cannot be done in the old way
and the sooner the farmer abandons SEN
timentin chs matter and adopts the
teaching of science and common sense
the sooner will he place his business in
the line of possible success.
The means of acquiring this knowl
edge which enables the farmer to keep
abreast of the times and IN accord with
changed conditions and development are
many and varied and do not need to be
enumerated. They have been provided
faster even than the farmers have mani
tested disposition to make them avail
able and it remains with the farmers
themselves to decide how far this iDfor-
nation shall be obtained and utilized.
The farmer who sees no value in agrj-
cultural schools, dairy schools, farm
ers Institutes, experiment station bulle-
tins and agricultural papers is generally
conducting losing business and is loud
est in his protestations against the bust

are suffering from untavorable business
conditions and farmers are not making
much money, as rule. The principle,
however, holds true in farming, as in
other industries and, that the mere un-
favorable the conditions the more neces-
sary it is to adopt intelligent and pro-
gressive methods. With these it will be
possible to succeed where failure would
give the greatest possible attention to
these matters and,,apply the most intelli-
gent efforts to their business. At no
time is it right to manage the farm in
careless and INDECENT manner and espec
tally is such course to be condemned
when the conditions are such that only
the most skilful and competant can sue
coed. Give careful attention to all the
leaks on the farm, both large and small,
and make available every means for pro-
gressive action in all matters pertain
ing to the farm and some measure of
success will be attained. We are not
saying this without full appreciation
of the difficulties in the pathway of the
farmer and entertain the belief that
many Of these will vanish with the ap.
plication of modern methods and pro-
gressive ideas in the management of the
farm, These requisites for success can
not be too often referred to or too earn
estly rec commended, for in their adop-
ton is the hope for future success in
agricultural matters Mirror and Farmer

Does Germless Fruit Mature,

At the meeting of the State Horticult-
ural Society, held in Sacramento on the
9Th of May last, the question of frost
damage to fruit was discussed at consid
cradle length. Several leading growers
persistently held that young peaches,
which had been subject to the action of
frost, sufficiently hard to turn the pit
black, would fail to mature and would
fall from the trees. One grower present
reported that his peaches were showing
a black pit, but they were not dropping,
and continued to grow. A prominent
grower of Visalia, some of whose peaches
had been subject to the action Of frost,
took much interest in the discussion, as
reported in the papers, and concluded to
watch his peaches closely, with a view
of testing the different opinions held by
growers. On cutting them he noticed
the pits were black, but he also noticed
that they did not drop from the trees, as
it was said they would do, but continued
to grow and obtained good size, and fl
nally, fully matured. Upon examina
ton the pit was found to be perfect, so
far as appearance was concerned, being
hard and firm. Upon cracking it, the
germ within was found to be shriveled
and dried up, until not thicker than
heavy piece of paper. In fact, the COW
ering or skin Of the germ contained moth
ing within it, the substance and the vi
tality both, having departed. This opens
up wide field for speculation. Were
there special soil or climatic conditions
existing where these peaches were
grown? Would they have dropped. I'M
der other conditions, either of soil or eli
mate? Will peaches, in which the germ
is destroyed, ordinarily develop into
large, choice fruit, as did the Visalia
fruit? The processes of nature are very
mysterious, but few of them are entirely
past finding out, and we look for further
discussion on this subject.-California

Heretofore it has been the custom
of the Portuguese school to have
Christmas tree, but this year the
children have hit upon something that
is as unique as it is pretty. 1t is in
the shape of large overhanging arch
from the center of which is suspend

are hanging smaller bells and then
still smaller bells are on the far ends.
1t is clever representation of Christ

consisting of songs, recitations and
dialogues by the different classes and
individual children, and then the pres
ents. Mr.. w, \. Bowen, the supern-

ment through.
The S. S. Australia is scheduled to
dock at the rostrum of the Methodist
church at Z o'clock. The ship, which
| is laden with toys, games, knives.
/ books and toothsome things for the
children, will anchor off the commune
ion rail. The children will render their
songs, recite their pieces and carry
out the exercises entire aboard the
ship. =.
The ship was constructed by Arch
itect c. b. Riplay, who the superin-
tendent of the Sunday school. 1t has
been built up from the communion
rail, which circles the rostrum. Cab
