Lima Beans.


The introduction of the bush varie-
ties Of Lima beans was an important
matter to those who make a speciality
Of Lima beans. The labor Of cutting
poles and the extra labor of caring f'r
the pole Limas made the growing of
them risk should dry weather occur.
At the West Virginia experiment sta
ton it has been found that beans
grown In drills produced twice as much
as those grown in hills. AS the bush
Limas may be planted with seeAdrill,
in rows, and require no poles, they can
be grown more profltably than hereto
fore. There are also varieties of bush
Limas that are as large as the pole
kinds, and they bring good prices In
market. These facts should be kept In
view for next year.

added the expansion caused by increase

secret of Success.

A ton of butter sold from the farm
POSTS almost nothing so far as rertiIizing
elements are concerned. but II Is esti-
mated that a ton Of wheat removes
about IS worth Of plant food from the
soil. This SO difference must be taken
into consideration in comparing butter
with wheat production, as 1t represents
that amount In favor of butter at the
start. The secret OF successful farming
is to produce something on the farm
that removes as little of the real wealth
of the farm as possible.

Labor, Wages and wheat.

In 1892, when our workingmen were
all employed, we consumed In this
country 177,0O0,O00 more bushels OF
wheat than we did In 1S94-177 100000
more. In 1894 our worklngmcn were
idle. They did not haveNto eat as much
food as they did when they were all
employed in 1892 they did not eat
as much for the simple reason that
they did not have money with which
to buy wheat or -four. Those idle men
ate coarser and cheaper foods, and, we
fear. that many of them did not eat
anything during part Of the time. This
Is one of the most marked facts in con-
nection with the hard times. To the
extent that the Wilson-Gorman low
Tariff bill threw workmen out of en-
ployment by transferring the work to
Europe, to that extent that bill was re-
sponsible for the III, 900, 900 bushels of
surplus wheat or rather unconsumed
American wheat.
1t can readily be seen what an in
fluence such quantity OF unconsumed
wheat would haye on the markets OF
the world. This year, under the return
