He Expresses the Opinion that All Govern
ments Should Have Recog-
h nized Them. .szs +

In a lecture on international law be-
fore the students of the university Sena-
tor G. K. Davis, chairman of the COM
mittee on foreign relations, took q plain
stand in favor of Cuba. He said: 8
"As to the question whether the Unit
ed States, under existing conditions,
should interfere in the affairs of Cuba, I
think, as a matter of personal convic-
ton, that this government should have
interfered in that island two years ago.
Spain has shown herself to be utterly nm
able to maintain her treaties with this
country. In 1898 there were $50, 000,-
900 of American property in that island.
In go, $18,O0o,000 of this had been de-
stroyeds Our commerce with that island
was close to 800, 100000, but has fallen
off to less than $s5, 100000. American
citizens have been incarcerated in pris-
ons or driven into conditions of famine
and fever. We ought to interfere on
the strictest grounds of international
law and have far more justification than
the European powers had thirty years
ago for their intervention in Turkey.
81 believe Cuba should have been rec
ognized as belligerent sometime since.

ingithe provocations they have received.

'.What would be the effect of recog-

it must wage war according to the laws
of civilized warfare and not in the bloody
and awful manner which it has for CEN

Cow PEAs.-The yield of the two

set aside for seed, the balance was
eagerly taken by my neighbors at Sl.5O

results the present year, and l am
thorough convert to the belief that the
southern cowpea is the best all-round
friend the farmer has. / would tell
the man with poor land that he can
soon have it rich; and the man who
has rich land, that he can easily keep
it so. A crop of cowpeas on average
soil, if plowed under just before the
bulk of the crop is ripe, will add more
fertility than three crops of corn or
wheat will take away; and that the
yield of feed per acre has a value dou-
Bile that of timothy or clover. Aside
from this, there are few farm crops so
we'll suited to the small farmer or so
profitable, if grown for sale of seed.
The yield is from Is to 80 bushels per
acre and the price in the spring is from
S1.25 to $3.50 per bushel. An acre
will yield this and still feed equal to
an acre of the best timothy. No read
or of The Journal will regret an invest
ment in this most valuable acquisition
to the farm.-R. Doolittle, in Journal
of Agriculture.

CARE OF FARM IMPLEMENTS.

Careful farmers may feel disposed
to regard suggestions respecting the
necessity for sheltering and caring for
farm implements after their season
of use is over as somewhat threadbare
and as partaking of the flavor of the
chestnut, but it is often necessary to
repeat the "old, old story" if it be
true, for, unfortunately, all farmers
are not of the careful kind. In these
days when machines of one kind or
another 80 largely take the place Of
hand labor, the tax which the cost of
implements makes upon production
is quite large-one of the most consid-
erable, indeed, which farming has to
bear-and care with regard to articles
which cost so much ought to be every
where the rule. 1t is with machinery
as with men-more rust out than wear
out; and with the machine the larger
part of the rusting out is due to lack
of suitable care and protection after
the active campaign in which it is used
is over. The season for the use of
many of the implements employed on
the farm is drawing near a close, ard
all of them should be safely housed,
first taking care that they are cleaned
and put in good order. A little cheap
paint for the painted parts will add to
the life of any machine far more than
the cost of the material and the labor
of applying it. The bright parts
should be protected by the application
of something that will turn water, and
mixture of tallow and graphite is
probably as good for this purpose as
any other. It can be applied warm
with brush, and on cooling it will be
sufficiently hard to remain on, and
yet will come off easily enough when
the machine is again put in use.
A good deal of time can be saved
at the opening of the next season by
making q memorandum of any repairs
that may be needed to machinery,
and putting it in place where it will
not be overlooked. These repairs are
fresh upon the mind now, whereas, if
q note of them is not maze, Dy tne
time the next season of use comes
around they will have been forgotten
and will only be discovered upon put.
ting the implement into the field, and
then work will have to stop while the
operator goes to town for the repairs
of which he should have had memo
randum and should have made before
beginning work with the Implement
A little care and forethought along
these lines will lengthen the life OF
many implements and reduce the tax
which the implement bill is upon the
farmer, as we'll as save many steps
and considerable loss of time when
the implement is again wanted for
use.-Exchange.

It's THIS WAY.-A writer gives this
amusing explanation of the abilities
of woman versus the limitations OF
man. Just watch them and see If it is
hot true. A man cannot do two things
at q time. A woman will broil q
steak, and see that the coffee does not
boil over, and watch the cat that she
does not steal the remnant of the meat
on the kitchen table, and dress the
youngest boy, and set the table, and
see TO the toast, and stir the oatmeal,
and give the orders to the butcher,
and she can do it all at once and not
half try. Man has done wonders
since he came before the public. He
has navigated the ocean, be has pen
etrated the mysteries of the starry
heavens, he has harnessed the light
ming, and made it pull street cars and
light the great cities of the world.
But he can't find spool of red thread
in his wife's work basket; he can't
discover her pocket in a dress hanging
in the closet; he cannot hang out
clothes and get them on the line the
right end up. He cannot hold clothes
pins in his mouth while he is doing it,
either. He cannot be polite to some
body he hates. He can't sit in rock
ing chair without banging the rockers
into the Dashboard. He can't put the
tidy on the sofa pillow the right side
out. He cannot sew on button. In
short, he cannot do hundred things
that women do almost instinctively.

Timber for fence posts should be cut
about the middle of the winter. White
oak is preferable. Split about five
inches square, and season standing in
q shed for six months; then burn the
lower end a little, so it will have a
coal showing from the lower end to
six inches above the ground when set
then the burned part should be we'll
saturated with hot coal oil. The
posts are then ready to be set. But il
not set for some months, they should
be left standing under shelter, with
the black end down. Posts fixed &C.

twenty times as long as those of the

the cost of the above fixing is only

suggested a friendly game of poker.
The game ran along smoothly for a

gave himself four kings. The betting
became interesting right away, and

COMMENCE TODAY

DETWEEN this date and the MIDDLE OF
ID MARCH, it is usual for the people Of this
section to select their reading matter for the
following year. Being one Of the cleanest,
most enterprislng and reliable newspapers in
the state, it is natural, therefore, that THE
YORKV1LI.E ENQUIRER should also be
one of the most popular. Ninety per cent. of
the families in the county desire 1t as regu-
lar visitor to their homes, and all those who
can afford it, may reasonably be looked upon
as probable subscribers. One OF the most Sc
rious drawbacks, probably, Is the inconven.
ience Of writing letters, sending money and
attending to the matter Of subscribing at the
proper time. 1t is this fact that makes 1t es-
pecfally desirable for us, just at this time, to
secure the services Of large number Of intel
ligent and energetic assistants, and to make 1t
worth their while to give the matter their
attention, we are making the liberal offers
which we will presently explain.
The price Of single subscription one year
is TWO DOLLARS. This Is TO the individual
who does not give his name to clubmaker /;
but sends 1t direct to this Office. In clubs,
however, the price Is only ONE DOLLAR
AND SEVENTY-FIVE CENTS. That Is the
price which the subscriber pays the clubma-
ker, and the price which, under oil circum-
stances, he is expected to pay US. Now to our
nr0nNSitionS:
