Attaches in the Marshars Office Secure

in Their Positions.
There was great rejoicing in the United
States Marshaps office yesterday. Chief
Deputy A. L. Parish recently sent an
inquiry to the United States Civil Service
Commission at Washington as to the posi-
tions of the, attaches in the Marshal's
office. Yesterday letter was received
from Secretary John t. Doyle stating that
the clerical assistants and Office deputies
are in the classified service, and, therefore,
under civil service. This does not apply
to field deputies of the United States Mar
shall who are dependent upon fees for their
remuneration.
The older deputies in the Office are A.
L. Parish, who has served the several Mar
shals for the past ten years. and s. P.
Monckton, VINO has been in the Office seven
years. The others there now came in
under Marshal Barry Baldwin, but they
will ali be able to stay when he has gone.
As it stands now, the office deputies and
clerks are equally divided in their politics.

THEIR REBATES READY.

Taxpayers Are Backward in Coming
Forward for Their Money.
The Treasurer is anxiously awaiting for
about 5000 taxpayers to call and get the
rebates due them on taxes paid during the
early part of the year. The amount to
their credit lying idle in the City treasury
is about 10000, and the larger portion Of
this is due those who are not on the de-
linquent tax list. The number of appli-
cants for rebates has grown very small
during the past few days, and there is lit
tie for the clerks to do.

SEED CORN.

Dr. e. L Sturtevant, says: ''The
true principle or rule at the foundation
of successful corn culture is to select
seed of a variety adapted to our uses,
market and climate, which has prolific
parentage through the largest series of
generations possible. In order for this
we must plant our seed fields by them.
selves, away from other corn. We
must then, at the period preceding the
bloom, go through our fields with the
knife, and ruthlessly cut away every
feeble stalk, every overgrown stalk,
every stalk which departs from the
type of growth that we desire, and
above all, every stalk which does not
show indications of bearing several
strong ears. In this way only, can we.
insure the fertilization of our seed corn
by pollen from productive plants, and
in this way only can we intelligently
keep the heredity of the plant in the
direction of the continued prolificacy
that we DESIRE" If some person in
every county would give special atten-
ton to improving corn by careful selec
ton of seed and proper cultivation, he
would soon find it profitable business,
with brisk demand from his brother
farmers for supplies Of seed.

SoMR REMARKS ABOUT THE
CONDITION OF GERMAN
AGRICULTURE.

AGRICULTURE.
DR.. Ernest T. Bynum, the newly
elected Professor of History and Eco
nomics in the University, has written
for the Chatham Citizsn very inter
esting article relating TO the condition
OF German agriculture. DR.. Bynum
says:
In comparing the price Of land in
Germany with that in America it is
necessary to bear in mind that the
farmers there are heavily protected by
the government end received in conse
quence a much higher price for their
produce.
As near as 1 have been able to com
pute, the price of wheat there was 81 30,
of rye 81 90, of barley so 75 and of oats
so 80 cents bushsl. Good butter sells
for 35 Cts, beef at 90 cents and pork is
a little higher than beef Peas bring
about s. 90 a bushel and potatoes abous
S15 90 a ton. Now these are cash
prices and every producer finds aready
market In every town. The public
highways are in superb condition and
the cost OF transportation is very small
1t is even doubtful whether land
could bring such prices without tbeex
tremely low rate of interest prevailing
all over Europe and the sugar beet cul
ture. regret my inability to compare
with any degree Of accuracy the price
of sugar beets.
In the Province of Saxony and the
Duchy of Anhalt this is most import
ant crop and requires far greater de
gree Of intelligence and skill in it's cul
ture. The farmers generally own and
operate the sugar factories as stock
companies and those who mar ket their
own beets are paid according to the
polarization or the amount of sugar
contained in the beets. Suffice it to
say, this is considered the most re
munerative Of all the crops.
Another element to be considered d in
accounting for the cost of land is the
price of farm labor. This il in general

have in the above list enumerated
the chief farm products with the ex,
ception of hay. In regard to grass cul
ture 1 can give very little information
of value. Besides lucerne and clover,
lupine is extensively cultivated and
especially priced as a green manure to
be used on red land. have been told
by agricultural scientists that this inn
