A Distinction and a Difference.

Every man who breeds or keeps
poultry solely for the dollars, must
be alive to the fact that his work is
upon different line from his neigh
Dor, who breeds purely to establish
and perpetuate variety. With him
the dollar is the objective point, and
every consideration becomes Of little
value. Worth is to be determined by
actual heredity rather than arbitra-
ry markings. The man who breeds as
a specialist must give sharp attention
to what are termed fancy points.
The size, shape and number of
spikes in the comb, the peculiar shape
of bar or stripe or spangle in the
fea theirs, the number of toes, and the
extent to which they are protected by
feathers, the shading Of the undercol-
or, are all arbitrary requirements, not
one of which can be neglected by the
breeder who attempts to hold public
attention and win honors. Not one of
these are in any sense connected with
egg production, but all are essential
in securing and preserving the indi-
viduality of breeds. The hen with
four toes can lay as many eggs as the
one with five, but if this were chang
ed a distinguishing mark would be
lost. So, too, a hen with a crest may
be as good or better than one with
out, but it is not because of the crest.
Arbitrary standards there must be to
preserve the individuality of breeds,
and the man whose fancy dictates a
close following Of these, will be the
man to patronize when pure blood is
wanted; but these are not to be the
chief reliance. Type of body must go
with these in every case, that the
whole animal be not wrapped in fog
of fancy markings to the loss Of all
else.
Rely then on the specialists for
blood, but demand that it represents
more than comb or feathers-and in
keeping hens for eggs never forget
that type is paramount to breed, and
the business hen the only one profit
able for the farmer and the egg pro-
ducer-Maine Farmer.

other information which is of special interest
when travelling through these places.

fence. 1t is not SO much the loss of the
fruitby these thoughtless persons that
hurts us, as that they try TO destroy
the source from which they obtain it,
like as if they did not care whether
the tree bore more fruit or not, break
ing down and cutting off limbs as
though it cost nothing to grow then.
| have tried to show how we can
plant and grow cabbage palmetto tree
fences and windbreaks from the seed,
but it can be done as well by seT-ing
out young plants, when some time
would be gained, which would com
pensate for the extra labor required.
Those who would be able to bear TIE
expense of setting out large trees
would derive the same benefit that
would be enjoyed by planting seed or
plants after ten years, and if care IS
taken not to injure the cabbage they
live very we'll; then you have the
benefit in the beginning, but cost is
considerable; but where trees are con-
venient it would, [ believe, cost less
in the long run than many fences that
are not near as effectual.
In cases where timber fences are es-
tablished seed or young plants could
be planted near them and cared for,
to come on and take their places.
When we establish these palmetto
fences they would be a thing of great
usefulness and beauty for centuries,
and those who are to play their part
in this country's future will have one
of the greatest monuments left them
of our foresight and wisdom that we
could wish, it seems to me. There is
no loss by decay, and when one of our
gales come we will not have to go
around to see if our fences are stand
ing up; and when on lands that are
subject to overflow the water may
rise and run over it's tops, but when
the water subsidies the fence would
be standing there to still do it's work
of confirming live stock as effectually

fires only do it temporary damage,
and in a year or two it would take
close examination to find any defect
from it.
| will now conclude by saying that
it is something worth trying to
have, and | ask every farmer, fruit
grower, gardener, stock man, railway
man and all our citizens throughout
the entire state, let their interest be
in town or country, to aid in this eff
fort to bring the noble cabbage pal

The pretence that it was peculiarly a

in getting appropriations for it from the
states and with the disappearance of all
ground for such pretence to rest upon,

Bowdoin as general educational institu-
ton it will be far more difficult to rouse
the farmers to special effort in it's be-

will be likely to agree with the Maine

and manufacturers alike know that
something will soon be done. Business
can literally do nothing now but wait
for the tariff changes; and every day of
delay Is day of financial loss to the
people of Canada. The American Con-
gress is perfectly alive to the grave in
jury inflicted upon business by the pro-
longation of doubt about the tariff when
once the time of final settlement is
within sight; and so hastens to bring it's
new schedules into operation as soon rs
is at all possible. Our government should
be moved by the same haste. Time lost
is now money lost; and the politicians
will find few pople willing to fling away
much of the latter commodity This
advice to the Canadian Parliament is
equally applicable to the United States
Senate. The American public want the
Senate to indulge in no unnecessary
talk but to get down to business.

The greatest objection to the Grosvonor
amendment to the Dingley bill provid-
ing that if the bill is passed it's operation
shall date from April /, is the uncertain
ty that it creates. If the bill were sure
to be passed in its present form, If passed
at all, there would lie comparatively
little objection to it. But in
all probability it will he changed in
many particulars before it becomes law
SO that both the importer aud the home
producer are left in doubt as to tariff
conditions between April first and the
time the bill becomes a law. What the
bill in its present form really declares ia
that there shall be in operation between
April l and the date of it's passage
different schedule of duties than the
present ones, but what those schedules
will be nobody can know until the bill
is finally passed. The case is very much
as if Congress should pass a law and
oblige everybody to conform to it without
letting it be known what the law is
Congress ought not to compel i'm
portera and manufacturers to do bust
ness in the dark. but this is what it is
doing by adopting the Grosvenor amend

A financial strain, incident to her
wars In CUBA and the Philippines, is
now demanding the attention of Spain.
European bankers seem unwilling to
invest In any more of her bonds, as
SPANS revenues are already pledged for
the repayment of the $500, 600, 900 hor-
rowed in 1885 and 1890. Another yolun-
tary loan from the people can hardly be
looked for. as they are poor and heavily
taxed, and their contribution of last
year Was sacrifice made to little pur-
pose. A Cuban deficit of more than
500, 000, 900 10 looked for this year by the
Madrid authorities. This will be added
to in the philippines, and altogether, it
would seem, with credit PROSTATE, the
time is near for Spain to decide upon a
policy of concession.

Judge Lawrence and the Ohio woo
cohorts are not satisfied with the duty on
wool adopted by the House and are al
ready organizing to bring pressure upon
she Senate to increase it. The chances
are, however, that they will get less
rather than more, protection out of the
Senate. Three Republican members OF. the
committee that will consider the bill in
the first instance .are Allison of Iowa,
Aldrich of Rhode Island and Platt of
Connecticut, the two last manufacturers
who will be likely to share the fealing of
that class that the duty fixed by the
House is too high. while Allison has al
ways been moderate protectionist
Probably Lawrence does not really ex-
poet to get the duty raised, but hopes by
making lot of noise to prevent It's being
lowered.
