Fate and Hope: A Fable

Fate and Hope were playing at Mare

Fate had been Winning Steadily for
more than 5000 years, but when she
Looked up from the Game she noticed
that her Stock Of Agates and Alley-t tors
had not visibly increased, while Hopes
losses did not Appear to have reduced the
Pile by her Side.
'See here! Hope" said Fate, with some
show of Temper, "How's this? You've
been Losing all the Time. but you seem
to have Just as Many Marbles as when
we marked out the ring"
"Well, it's this way" responded Hope,
with Rare Smile, you've been wins

growth OF all plants, anu lAo|
nearly all agricultural soils con-
tain q sufficient supply of all except
three of these, to be practically mex
haustible. These three are nitrogen.
phosphoric acid and potash. The farm
ers Of New York are already paying
annually five million dollars for these
three elements in the form of CONNER
cfal fertilizers. paying IL cents per
pound for nitrogen, ~ cents pound
for phosphoric acid, and AZ cents a
pound for potash. Inasmuch
as two different plants do not require
elements of fertility in the same pro-
portion, q proper rotation of crops Will
aid In conserving the hidden treasures
OF the soil. A careful attention to the
analysis Of the crop that we are SELL
Ing is also Of the utmost Importance.
Farms in the older portions OF the
state from which the most grain mas
been sold present a sad contrast to ad-
joining farms where stock growing
or dairying has been the leading In
dustry, and upon which the products
OF the farm have been more largely
fed. 1t would seem that so

south, and can get first cost or more

1t would be wiser for us to add this
fertility to our farms than to sec 1t 60
to enrich the lands of Europe. Men
still leave manure in the yard all sum-
mer to rot, knowing full well that they
are losing the use of it for a year. and
that even when piled in the most ap-
proved form. it will. on the average,
lose more than half its value II al
lowed to remain there six months in
the summer season. If spread out
over the surface of the yard the loss
would be even greater. While the loss
from these piles has been ascertained
from carefully tried experiments, 1t
seems incompreheusible to the major
ity of farmers. if not really incredi-
bic. We all recognize the difference
in strength between leached and I'M
leached ashes, and we might make the
same contrast between leached and I'M
leached barnyard manure. Some farm
ers have recognized these facts and
have made provisions for saving these
teachings, which are the most avail
able, If not the most valuable portion.
They have dug cellars under their sta
bles with water-tight floors. This is an
excellent place for the storage OF the
manure, but the fumes arising from this
decaying vegetation fill the atmosphere
with impurities and permeate the hay
loft and the meal bin, rendering the
feed unwholesome. Covered barnyards
have been advocated by some Of our
eastern farmers, but are expensive.
Sheds large enough for few months
accumulations might be practicable.
but as manure never gains anything
by age, except in solubility, I believe
the better way is to take it to the field
rs directly from the stable as c0nven-
lent and spread out at once.

Polvgonum Sachalinense.)

Y
This is a hardy herbaceous peren-
nial, six to twelve feet high, with
strong, extensively creeping root
stocks. The plant is q native of an
island OF the Siberian coast where it
grows along moist river banks. It was
introduced into England about 1870
and has been quite generally cultivated
in the botanical gardens of Europe.
At time of great drought in France
in 1893 it was discovered that cattle
would eat the leaves and tender
branches of this plant and q member
of the French Academy presented a
paper suggesting that 1t might prove
a valuable addition to the list of fod-
der plants. This seems to be the first
intimation that sachaline had any for
age value, but the idea was at once
taken up by others. and the hardness,
the rapid growth and other qualities
of the plant were extolled and en-
larged upon by interested parties.
Within the past year or so most ex-
travagant accounts of the value of
sachaline for forage have appeared in
American papers and seed catalogues.

Three to One.

In discussing the railway problem
those opposed to the companies should
bear in mind that more than seventy
dollars out of every hundred invested
in railway property paid nothing on the
investment last year. To put the prop
osition in its simplest form, nearly
three dollars brings no returns for
every dollar that earns a dividend.
1t is contended by some that the
present capitalization is an unfair
measure of the investment because
stock-watering and similar transactions
have inflated the capital. Perhaps in
some cases this is true, but on the other
hand vast aggregates Of stocks and
bonds have been wholly swept out OF
existence by foreclosures or reorganiza-
tons. The one about balances the
other.
This being the case we get down to
the present proposition. namely that
the railways have right to reasonable
returns on the money actually invested.
This is all the shareholders ask of the
public. And they have a right to this.
The public has no right to demand that
they shall ask less. More especially is
this true when upon the future of these
properties rests the comfort and hap
piness Of a million wage earners. And
on the welfare of these, with their four
million of dependents, depends the
prosperity of hundreds of thousands of
other breadwinners.
