special to the Jerscu Cftu Nears.


TRENTON, March IS. 1s97.-The Senate
Committee on Boroughs for over three
hours yesterday afternoon listened to ar
gument on the borough government bill,
which was prepared by the commission
appointed by the last Legislature. The
bill was drafted by Mr.. Alfred Skinner
of Newark, a member of the last Legis-
lature, who explained the bill as an effort
to simplify borough government. One
of the most important feature OF the
measure, he said. was that relating to
the issuing of bonds. It was generally
considered that in most cases boroughs
needed a large issue Of bonds and this
bill allowed the issue to extend up to six
per cent. of the assessed value. Several
gentlemen spoke and all endorsed the
measure and had some. change to sug-
gest. The committee said no further hear
ings would be given on the measure and
that the bill would be reported to the
Senate with some amendments suggested
by the remarks of the gentlemen who
had spoken.

ST. PATRICK HONORBD.
Citizens Fill St. Bridget's
Hall in Memory Of Their
Patron Saint Father
Tighe's Speech.

h Ancient Order of Hibernians of
America celebrated st. Patrick's Day in
st. Bridget's Hall last night with elabor-
ate exercises. The pleasing
ment was made that steps have been
aiken to effect a reconciliation of the
opposing Hibernian societies. The hall
was gorgeously decorated with American
and Irish flags and every seat in the large
room vas occupied.
On the platform were:-Michael B.
Holmes, president of the County Board
of Hibernians: Rev. VIM. H. Dornin,
pastor of St. Bridget's; Rev. John Tighe
of st. Paul's, Greenville; Rev. John Ter
Woert of st. Johns. Rev. William F.
Mclaughlin of st. Lucy's and ex-Coroner
Murrer.
Father Dornin was chosen as chairman
and in accepting that honorable duty he
made q brief address. He said:-"It is
the duty of every Irish-American citizen
to show allegiance to his country and
always to act the part of a sober, honest,
patriotic American. The Irish race has
reason to be proud of its history. Every

his religion and to his country,

Cover crop For Orchards.

Last fall, at the Geneva experiment
station, was an apple orchard contain
ing "cover crop" Of buckwheat and
peas. Professor Beach was pleased with
this combination for sowing in young
orchards. Buckwheat covers the ground
and makes vigorous growth until
frost comes, as Rural New Yorker ex-
plains. When this grain is used, the
ground is moist and in good, friable
condition, not becoming SO dry and hard
as it does when other cereals are used.
One object i'll sowing buckwheat with
the peas was to keep the latter up off
the ground 60 that they would be less
liable to attack by mildew. The mix
ture was found especially useful on
hard clay knolls. but it does not live
through the winter like the clovers. In
one sense this is not an objection, for
spring culture is easier when the crop
dies down. A combination Of winter
yetch and winter rye has given excel
lent satisfaction az late crop sown in
orchards. The indications are that some
combination of a legume and cereal
will give better results than either crop
used alone.
Middletown transcript., 1897-09-18
Told by Others.

A material shortage in the New York
state hop crop is reported.
A bulletin from the New Hampshire
station warns farmers against purehas-
ing inferior wood ashes, which seem to
be on the market in large quantities
this season.
Where either wheat or rye is to be
sown in the fall, no time should be lost
in plowing and preparing the ground
for seeding.
The New England Homestead tells OF

farm of less than 100 acres is due to re-

heved that the owner is 81 500 to 3d.
500 better off at the close of each year
than at the beginning.
German experiments seem to show
that potash salts have decided influ-
ence in conserving the moisture Of the
soil.

oulturist from tobacco growing towns
in New England place the acreage this

wb.t Acr,oultural ColIeres Cost.

Over million dollars Isl, 104, o00)
has just been paid by the United States
treasury to help the 4S agricultural
colleges during the fiscal year ending
June 20, 1898. They get $2S, 900 apiece
this year, under the act of 1890, against
$4,000 last year. In July next the
amount will be $4,000, and on and
after July l. 1899, the sum will be
s25, 900 each and every year. This, ex-
plains American Agriculturist, is equal
to the stupendous endowment by the
federal COVE ernment of from $25, 600, 600
to $40, 600, 900 for agricultural educa-
tion, or an endowment of $500, 900 to
$500, 900 to each college, according as
income is reckoned at 8, or per cent.
On top Of this princely grant govern
iment gives SO, 600 annually to each
