BY an overwhelming vote of64 to
s. the Senate of the United States
on last Friday adopted concur
rent resolution favorable to Cuban
helligerency and independence. The
resolutions ale as follows:
Resolved by the Senate, the
House of Representatives concur
ring, That in the opinion of Con-
gress II condition of public war ex-
lists between the government and

claimed and for some time main
tained by force Of arms by the peo-

milton of the independence Of

When the result was announced
the densely packed galleries broke
into long-continued applause,
which the Vice-President checked
with difficulty.
The result WAS reached after a
day of fervid speeches, which at
times aroused the crowd of specta-
tors to enthusiastic demonstrations.
The keen public interest in the
subject was evinced by the pres
ence of the largest crowd since Con-
gress assembled.

Upland Rice.

To raise upland rice cheaply and
without much hand labor, you need
ground or old fields which have grown
up in broomsedge, for on old lands, the
grass is very difficult to keep out, as
the young plant is so much like it..
This land should be we'll broken, and
rows laid off about three feet apart.
The grain should be planted on small
bed, so that the young plant may be
cultivated before the grass begins to
grow. In selecting your seed. be sure
that you get the white variety, for the
red, when cooked, looks black, and
does not make desirable looking dish
for the table. In planting, drop few
seed-twelve to fifteen in hill-about
every eighteen inches. You begin your
cultivation us soon as the young plants
will allow, by giving it hoeing in Or
der to kill all grass that may be up or
coming up. As for the rest of the cul-
tiTation, it can be done chiefly with the
pillow. the chief object being to keep out
the gracs. One or two more hoeings
may be necessary, as the case may re-
quire. When the rice is ripe, which can
be told by the grains assuming a tan
color, and by the turning of the stem,
it should be cut, tied into bundles and
hung out 10 dry. To hang the rice for
drying, place pole upon forked sticks,
as the ridge pole of tent, and put the
rice on this, pulling the head of the
bundle open, and placing it head
downwards, that the rain might be
kept out. When it is thoroughly dry,
take it down, beat it out and carry it TO
the HITLER. If there is no huller con-
venieat, you should not let this hinder
you from painting, as you can very
easily beat it out with a mortar and
pestle. Some people here, with:c con
venient reach OF a huller, prefer to heat
theirs out in this manner. For the ben
eft of those who live in the hill coun-
try, I would suggest that, for the first
year, they plant a patch in both low
land and upland. as all of our country
here is on level, and do not know
in which it would do best.-Cultivator,

it was to that crowd. They expected mere

rather, it was the speech of statesman,
broad, conservative and convincing, hence it
was disappointing. There is not vulnerable

matter of no consequence. The speech itself
is what the people are most concerned with,
