DINGLEY TARIFF BILL IS DEAD.
ans Do Not Expect to Pass During the Special Session
of Congress.

WASHINGTON, May 18.-Congress
will be in session until the middle OF
August, and will ultimately adjourn
without passing a tariff bill 1t is not
the purpose of the Republican mama
gers to pass a tariff bill. This fact
has not yet been officially communicat-
ed to the president, and he is con-
stantly urging congressional action.
The Republican managers know that
the Dingley bill will not be passed. but
they do not want to acknowledge that
fact at present. In private talk with
them, however, it is ascertained that
they have no hope Of the passage OF
the bill. This is startling, but abso-
lutely true. The Republicans have not
a. majority of the senate, and they
will not have majority until Re-
publican senator is elected by the leg
islature of Oregon. That is the situa-
ton. The Silver Republican senators
will not vote for the pending BILL
Senator Davis today gave notice of
an amendment to the tariff bill, fixing
rates of duty as follows: Ground mus
tard, 10 cents per pound; oassia cinna-
men, nutmegs, ETC., If unground, 10

president has decided to appoint A. G.

THE TEN-ACRE FARM.

The young man who starts on ten
acres of good land, near village where
be can get a supply of manure and find
a market for his produce, VIII start on
a safe basis, for small farms always
sell more readily and at better prices
than large ones, and if he concludes
later that he wants more land, he can
sell and buy a large farm, il he can
not buy more land near enough so that
he can work it ecopsmically. What
shall man with ten-acre farm grow?
Evidently he cannot make living
from corn, hay, wheat, hogs and cat
tie, the man may with quarter Sec
1tlCn of land, and so he must study his
market and soil and decide with which
of the many profitable products which
are possible to him he can do best. AS
with large farm, would advise first
that he grow as far as possible every
thing that his family can use. Milk,
tutter, eggs, poultry, fruits and vege-
tables can all be grown in the greatest
abundance, and it will not take one
long to find out what his market de-
mands, and to grow surplus of such
things.-Waldo F. Brown in New Eng

SEED POTATOES.

The tests of the Ohio Experiment
Station indicate that home grown seed
potatoes will give as good crops as any
northern grown seed of the same va
rieties, provided the seed potatoes are
we'll kept, but the yield is materially
lessened and the ripening retarded if
the seed potatoes are allowed to sprout
and the sprouts are broken off, as u.s.
ually happens when the potatoes are
kept in a dark cellar.
Many potato growers keep their po-
tatoes successfully, especially in the
northern part of the state, by burying
the potatoes in pits, covering to shall
low depth at first and adding layers of
straw and earth as the weather be-
comes colder.
The ideal method of keeping seed po-
tatoes is in cold storage. Potatoes thus
kept at the Ohio Station have come out
sound and fresh, with no indication of
sprouting and the vitality unimpaired,
even so late as the first of June. 1t
is important, however, that the TEN.
perature of the cold storage room
should not fall below thirty-five de-
grees, nor should it rise much above
forty degrees.
When cold storage is not available,
sprouting may be in some measure pre-
vented by shoveling the potatoes over
frequently.
While the sprouting of potatoes under
ordinary conditions is very objectiona-
BILE, they may be so sprouted as to ma
terially advance their earliness. This
is done by placing them stem end down
in single layers in shallow trays on the
floor, in a light and moderately warm
room. Thus placed they will send out
short, stubby, green sprouts which will
remain in that condition for weeks.
Such potatoes, planted without break
ing the sprouts, will grow Immediately
and produce an early crop.

NOTES ON THE GAMMA.

After two oyears' experience with Gamma,
General De Miribel places it among the
best Of our tested varieties, writes G.
A. Woolson, Of Vermont. Although
grown in a ten-inch pot out Of doors it
was prolific in graceful dropping
leaves and profusion of flowers. The
same plant cut down, repotted, and
brought indoors was another thing al
together; the growth was much more
luxuriant and the leaves were larger
and more banana-like in appearance.

of moisture, induced by less rapid
evaporation. The bloom" on the
leaves is as pronounced and as easily
marred as that of plum or grape
The second season the bulk Of the tu-
bers were placed undivided in the open
ground. A regal growth quickly fol-
lowed. The average height is about
five feet in the open and four indoors,
notwithstanding the catalogued limit
of three. The flower heads are about a
foot in length and loosely imbricated,
point which greatly adds to the grace
Of all these plants The color is liter

color possessing latent tints, which
vary greatly with the quality of soil
and amount of sunlight; it is at it's
best in the open ground, as direct rays
of the sun seem to develop the rosy
hue.
The Peachblow Gamma was disap-
pointment under the most favorable
conditions. The growth was slow, not
exceeding three feet in the entire sea-
son. Blossoms were conspicuous by
their absence. The few that appeared
were very attractive in the bud; but

tured in straw color with but faint
suggestion of rose on the lower petal.

PROF. r. S. BOWMAN,
Some time ago he had severe illness
which was cured almost miraculously. A
reporter hearing Of this, interviewed him
regarding his experience. Prof. Bowman
was in the midst Of his work when the re.
porter called, but he cheerfully gave him a
hearing.
"A year ago last fall" said the professor,
II broke down with nervous exhaustion.
and was unable to properly attend to my
duties. tried different physicians but with
no relief. and also used many different pro-
prietary medicines, spending almost fifty
dollars for these medicines alone. l then
succumbed to a seige Of the grip in the
middle OF winter, and was left in much
worse condition. My kidneys were fearfully
disordered, and my digestion became very
poor. was indeed in bad condition.
"A minister in conference learning Of my
condition advised me to tried DR.. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People. I had heard
much about the wonderful curative powers
OF this medicine, but 1t was with reluctance
that l was finally persuaded to try it, as it
seemed that nothing could do me any good
However. I procured three boxes of pills
and took them strictly according to direc-
tions. By the time the last dose was taken
l was almost cured, and in better health
than had been for years. continued using
the pills awhile longer and was entirely

greater or less degree, her vitality as

farmers, young farmers especially, who
grass makes its appearance and let her
take care of herself until the next au-
tumn. Then if she did not come up
with strong, healthy litter of pigs,
they say that she was not for a brood
SOW, and turn her into the fattening
pen.
With reasonable care SOW should
produce as good a litter of pigs at 10
years of age as at three. TIE TACT that
she has been bred {. number of times
should not in the least impair her
value Not ever SOW selected for a
Breeder should be kept for such, but
every young SOW possessing the essen.
tial qualities of good mother will
continue to breed well until at least 10
years of age | have known sows to
breed as we'll at II and 19 as at or 4.
These, however, were exceptional cases
and l would not advise keeping the
s0ws much longer than 10 years. On
the other hand, if young SOW does not
show at the second or third breeding
that she is a good brood animal, the
best plan is to sell her for pork as soon
as possible. But keep the one which
does possess these qualities, take care
of her and she will help lift the mort
gage from the farm.
For pasture, blue grass or clover sod
is the best. l use the latter. Timothy
sod does not suit the SOW and they are
too much inclined to root in it, and for
the same reason | do not think the
range of woodland to be very good.
With the range of blue grass or clover,
the SOW gets enough exercise and sun
light. Give plenty of water and shade.
If possible, supply running water, but
if this cannot be obtained provide a
pond or WallOW. This can be con-
structed without much labor or expense
and will be found profitable.
When the time comes for feeding
mangels, pumpkins, ETC., give the SOW
liberal supply. For slop prefer bran
and shorts mixed with a little skim
milk. The milk, however, should not
be used to very great extent, say one
quart of milk to a bucket of bran fed
once day. If, after harvest, the SOW
is turned into the stubble field, great
care should be taken to see that she has
an abundance of water and shade. If
this caution is neglected the change
from slops or green pasture to the dry
grain will be very detrimental .--Ern-
est Wallace, of Ohio.
