WASHINGTON LETTER.
Washington. December Ok I

Washington, December rs, 1896.
There is no more probability that tn,
independence OF Cuba will be recognized
by the United States during President
Cleveland's administration than there is
of Grover Cleveland becoming presiden,
Of the Cuban republic, and, unless Nc
kinley is misrepresented by Republi-
ems who are supposed to enjoy his con-
tidence, present policy will be continued
by him until there is some decided
change in Cuba. The resolution for the
independence of Cuba which has been
reported to the senate will, of course, be
made the basis of lot OF speeches when
congress reassembles, but more OF them
will be devoted to the claim of the ad-
ministraton, that the president alone
has the power to recognize the independ-
ence Of a nation, than to Cuba or any
thing connected with the unfortunate
island. Whether a vote on the resou-
tion itself will be had before the expira-
tion OF this congress is = matter of
doubt, but not Of much Importance, as
1t has already been given out by the Re-
publican leaders OF the house that the
resolution will not be allowed to come
before that body at all. The constitu-
tional question involved in the claim of
the administration is an important one,
and one upon which men who are re-
garded as able lawyers differ regardless
OF politics, and the debate upon it will
be In no sense partisan. There is practi-
cally no precedent, though several have
been cited as having bearing upon the
claim. And after all, nothing short of a
decision OF the United States supreme
court will be accepted as settling it.

How Do You Do IT?

There was time when the average
farmer made hay when it was conven-
lent for him to do so, after the summer s
work of the farm was practically over;
he got just as much hay, possibly his
stock ate it just as we'll, and there being
no market for it at home. and no way to
get it to foreign market, very little
attention was paid to the "grade." 1t
costs no more to cut hay at the proper
time than it does too late;it costs no more
to bale it properly. Portable hay presses
can be purchased that are almost
perfection; they have not yet reached
that point where you simply ''push the
button" but we are pleased to illustrate
in this issue of the A GRICULTURIsT the
0. K. Hay Press which the manufactu-
rers claim that al that is necessary is to
push the. hay down the large feed open
ing, push the team little, and unlimited
quantities of hay can be baled in nice,
even bales They publish nice little
look entitled 1.-The Story of Hay
Press" which gives full description Of
this press, and other interesting informs
tion which can be had by addressing the
office of the Scott Hay Press Co., West
85h. Street, Kansas City, Mo.

Rumley Defends the State.

Mr.. Ed Rumley, well-known CORE
spondent of the AGR1cULTUR1sT, retutes
various SANDERS published in Chicago
paper concerning the condition of Flori-
da. From his letter we extract the fol-
lowing:
"In regard to the condition of the
people, we have taken care Of all our
poor. The income of S., 900, 900 was en-
Uirely cut off, one of the largest indus
tries of the state destroyed, but we did
1ot ask for help or charity from outside.
Our members in the legislature treated
with scorn and contempt stay law Of
fered by member from beyond the
orange belt, and we have paid our de BITS
and taxes as fully as at any time. We
raised last season plenty of corn, hay
and pota toes for home use and some to
ship.
'"The past year has developed the to-
bacco interest, and it promises to bring
us great prosperity. A farmer near
here sold his crop, first and second cut,
for 40 cents a pound, netting him $500
per acre Mr.. Forest, of Kissimmee,'
says the Frat Grower, was offered 81
per pound for leaf like samples sent to
New York The Times-Union tells of
one firm receiving $4,000 for it's crop.
I can name many farmers who received
from IS cents to 81 per pound for their
tobacco, and land in the wild state that
will produce from 800 to 1000 pounds
per acre can be bought for $40 to SIS per
acre.
