over five years experience as a veterina-
rian in the south, we have seen but one
case of plainly marked tuberculosis in cat
tie. This is remarkable. and if the fact
was properly taken advantage of by our
southern breeders they might soon be ship

There is nothing the matter with the Jer-
sey business in the south if properly con-
Quoted and we are glad to note a growing
interest in the breeding of the dairy queen.

Raising Dairy Cattle in the south.


The raising of dairy cattle in the south
should and must prove a profitable bust
ness If properly followed, says the Farm
Gazette. The south has advantages
which, if properly used. would enable her
breeders to compete on easy terms with
northern and eastern breeders. Grass is
now considered one of the greatest draw
backs by our farmers. 1t ought to be
turned into our greatest advantage. II is
one thing above all others in the produce
ton of which we can compete with the
world and have no fear of the results
Why not put this ability of our lands to
grow grass to a good purpose? Any coun-
try that can grow grass to advantage is,
without doubt, a stock growing country
unless there is something In the climate
or other conditions to render the stock
unhealthy. This is admitted by all, for
the cheapest way to grow stock is by
furnishing them with green pasture for
the longest possible period. This we can
do, for while the northern breeder can
furnish pasture for his stock not more
than six months of the year, our breeders
can, by proper management, make the pc
Rod more than a half longer This is a
great advantage, but 1t is not the
only one. This keeping of the
stock on green feed for
so great portion of the year, and the free
dom from close and improperly ventilated
stables which our cattle enjoy renders
them almost exempt from that great
scourge of northern cattle, tuberculosis
This dread disease Consumption is one
of the greatest enemies Of the breeders q 2
dairy cattle in the north to-day. Thai
dairy cattle are more subject to It than
beef cattle is certain, and this is due 10
their closer confinement, made necessary
to facilitate milking, etc. However, the
writer has made tuberculine test OF sew

The relation between humus and soil
fertility is not always fully appreciated.
BY humus we mean the decayng organic
matter of the soil The amount of it in
the soil may vary from nothing to almost
100 per cent, but a certain amount of it is
absolutely essential to soil fertility. Its
value lies not so much in its chemical in
huence as in its physical action. 1t is
a great reservoir for the storage of nitro
gen, and moisture. 1t affects the tempera-
ture ofthe soil by making it warmer. HUI
mus, and its relation to soil moisture, is
usually not taken into consideration by
the average farmer, yet it is In this way
that it eXerts its most beneficial action on
the soil. II is able to absorb moisture
from the atmosphere, and, having once
taken it up, holds it.
Schuhler found the amount of moisture
absorbed by different air-dried soils in
twenty-four hours to be as follows;
Per Cent
Calcareous sand ........................... %
Loamy clay ......-................... o
Pure clay ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS. ?
Humus OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES. Z
1t will be seen from this that humus
took up more than double the moisture
of any other soil.
That humus is able to retain moisture
several samples of soil and dried them
thoroughly, and then saturated them with
water, allowing this to drain out, and then
found the amount of water retained to be
as follows:
Per cent. of weight.
Sllicious sand ..,.......,.........--....-. 20
Calcareous sand ~
LOamy clay 5O
Pure gray clay ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS. u
lol
1t will thus been seen that humus is abe
not only to absorb moisture, but also to re-
tain 1t.
When we pillow under a green crop or
stable manure, we are then not only add
ing plant-food to the soil, but we are add
ing this valuable humus which is able to
retain 1871 per cent. of it's weight of mois-
ture. Here is where farming with COM
mercial fertilizers fails. Though we may
give al, the plant food necessary for the
growth and development of the plant the
commercial fertilizer does not add humus
to the soil. If it's use is continued year
after year without being supplemented by
green or barn manures, the humus of the
soil finally used up, and the crop fails be-
cause there is no power in the soil to hold
moisture.
The chemist can analyze sample OF
barn manure and tell you what the plant
food in it's is worth. But he cannot tell the
value of the added humus to the soil. We
know its effects are far beyond its tertlliz-
ing value, and this is largely due to its
increasing the power of the soil to take
up and retain moisture. l.. A. Clinton

liberties are demanding consideration.
A confederation of blunders dy n dem
ocratic president and democratic con-
gress has raised dangers that press for
removal and issues that must be solved.
They involve policies of national reven-
ne, the establishment of an intelligent
monetary system, national defences, in
ternal improvements, decent regard
for the old soldier, protection for labor
and disnifed and rigorous enforcement
of our International polity.
1t is gratifying to know that our
state still stands enrolled as one of the
galaxy of republican commonwealth,
and that there are no symptoms OF
falling from grace. Harmony prevails
in republican ranks and faith FREEDOM
mates the republican heart. Neverthe-
less no effort should be spared to main
tain our party supremacy SO thoroughly
and magniiicently established within
our state. However deep the principles
of republieanism may be planted in
the hopes and aspirations of our people
their perpetuity should still further be
assured by party organizations through
ont the state. Over confidence may
depreciate their value and imperil
success. Need it be said that the loss
of Idaho to the republican party at this
time would be followed b. adverse cir
cumstances of a most distressing and
ruinouS?
To advance the truths of republican
ism in all parts of the Union the
National Republican League is engas
ing its best efforts. State leagues OF
the various states and territories are
cooperating with the same commend
able end i'll view. 1t is now most
earnestly urged that there are oppor-
tunities for usefulness in Idaho for
county, city and village organizations
in this direction. League methods of
increasing party membership are
approved by republican leaders Of our
own state and nation at large. As
of national and state com
mittees the league bodies have been
accorded the most hattering encomlums

local. county and state clubs. Repub-
licaus everywhere in the state are

To facilitate the formation of league

SILVER VS.. TARIFF.

In the Senate, Tuesday, Morrill,, Of
the finance committe, moved that the
tariff bill be taken up and spoke briefly
in support Of the motion urging that the
needs OF the treasury and OF business
demanded action. The motion wa,
defeated by vote OF SO against, to % for
the bill. Five republicans, Dubois,
Carter, Mantle, Teller and Cannon voted
nay. Among the western senators who
voted for the motion, were Mitchell, Davis
and Shoup. After the vote was an
nouncsd, Morrill, said the tariff bill was
dead and added that it was
shown that the republicans have
not now majority in the Senate, mean
ing OF course, that thu five senators
above mentioned, could no longer be
classed rs republicans.
Senator Carter, of Montana, on the
following day in defining his attitude
on the tariff bill said: The petition
OF the republicans who voted mo- indi-
Gated no more than that there was no
disposition to take up the matter at that
time" Continuing. he .aid: The
recently seli-constituted censor OF party
motions have been pleased to denom-
mate the republicans who voted against
this bill, a. conspirators against public
veal, and others have gone SO far q, to
invite them to relieve the party OF their
obnoxious presence"
He then proceeded to show that they
stood on the platform OF 1892 and
accused the gold bugs OF bad faith i'll
their treatment and interpretation OF the
financial plank in the platform. When
reminded that this plank was drawn by
his silver associates, he replied that they
did not think, when they wrote 1t, that
the English language would IS tortured
into such INTERPRETATIONS and that
ne SIP ported the republican party on
this platform because he believes it
would live up to its promises.
Senator Teller also spoke in defense
of their action and in rspley to Sher-
mans remarks on the death OF silver
said: 81 warn him that he will find it
lively corpse.

THERE seems to be great deal oil
criticism of the board OF commissioners
and other county officials, as to the
manner in which the county finances
have been conducted; but there is one
fact which rebounds to there credit, and
that is, that the issue OF warrants for the
year 1895, was $4,000 less in amount,
than for each OF the two preceding years,
being. s53,292 for 1898. 1886 for 1894.

AN INNOVATION THAT FAILED.

 Three Germantown boys of good fam flies, who went to an ultra select acad- emy in New York last year came home for their summer vacation with the idea that to be quite up to date the fashionable youth should wear no hat. They caught the idea from an English boy, who told them that that was the style where he came from, and they took his say-so as fact not to be dis puted. So they resolved to be the lead CTS in bringing about a grand dress re- form.
 To carry out the plan each one sol emnly committed himself to go bare headed for the balance of the summer, hoping by personal example to gain great number of converts among their friends. For three months they have conscientiously lived up to what they agreed upon, going hatless on the street, to church, to parties, on bicy- cle trips-everywhe In its purpose, however, their martyrdom has utterly failed, as not one extra boy could be persuaded to join the no-hat company.

Eight Hundred Invitations-New Ha-
 ven Guests-It Was an Interesting
 Event.
 The First Congregational church of East Anover, N. H., which celebrated its centennial last July, was the scene last Saturday at high noon of a notable wedding, for which eight hundred in- vitations had been issued, many Bos- ton people and several from New Ha ven being among those Invited. The occasion was the marriage of Miss Issa May Futile of East Andover to MT. Walter Hiram Todd of Boston.
 MT. Todd is a graduate of the New Hampton Institute and is well known in New England as one of the most successful traveling salesmen of George E. Marsh of Boston. Miss Futile, who was educated at Triton seminary, Is the daughter of Mir. and Mrs. Weare D. Futile MT. Futile has an established reputation as ponologist and is also one of the selectmen of East Andover. pr, c. F Flanders of Manchester, N. H., prominent in medical circles in his state and in Massachusetts, is an un- cle of the bride.
 It was a green and white wedding. The bridal party consisted of the bride who was given away by her father; her honor maid six bridesmaids and the ushers, one of the latter being Dr. Lyn- ford Futile of Franklin, N. H., broth CT of the bride and member of the class of 93, Harvard Rev. Frederick G. Clutter of Littleton, N. H., and a graduate of Oxford, 1891, was the off ciating clergyman, the Episcopal form of service being used
 The brides gown, cut en train, was of heavy white satin, with real duchess lace and pearl trimming. The honor maid, Miss Stella Futile, sister of the bride and a most attractive blonde, wore gown of light green silk, the bridesmaids being gowned in white silk
 A very interesting part of the service was the music, which was under the direction of Mrs Sturges Baldwin Low eridge who presided at the organ. Mrs. Loveridge now of New York, is re- membered as Miss Annie Kathleen Jos lin of this city. She was member of the Gounod society, of the Davenport church choir, and for many years had charge of the music at Calvary Baptist Bible school. Her many friends will be glad to learn of her continued sue cess. The musical program was as fol- lows:
