Bones For

No method has been found which is
entirely satisfactory for preparing bones
for distribution as a fertilizer without
running them through a mill prepared
for grinding them or treating them with
sulphurio acid. Country Gentleman
says: "If some strong wood ashes can
be procured, the bones, after having
been broken with a sledge hammer, may
be treated by placing them in layers
and covering with ashes. These should
be kept quite moist, and in the course
of six or eight months most of the bones
will have been broken down. Those
which remain somewhat hard may be
crushed by means of an iron sledge.
They probably will not be fine enough
70 distribute by means of a drill, but
they can be applied by hand in the drill
or sowed broadcast with the ashes.

If the draft proves too strong. A simple
little arrangement of this sort will Of
ten do as good work as one on which
much money and labor have been spent.
TheSame plan is suggested for use in
fumigating articles or for bleaching ar
ticles with burning sulphur. For such
purposes Il tighter chamber is required
than is needed for smoking meat. This
tightness can be secured by wrapping
cloth about the point of union of the
two barrels, while no opening need be
made of the base of the lower barrel.

Manure,

Barnyard is relatively def
cient i'll phosphoric acid, as compared
with ammonia and potash, and the ex-
periments of the Ohio station indicate
that phosphoric acid is the constituent
most needed on the majority of Ohio
soils, but that it only produces its full
effect in the presence of ammonia and
potash. The price of acid phosphate has
fallen during recent years until it can
10Y be bought for delivery anywhere
in Ohio at prices which bring it's actual
phosphoric acid below 8 cents per pound,
and as the s%prinkling Of acid phosphate
or superplosphate on %barnyard manure
is believed to have a beneficial effect in
preventing the waste of ammonia from
the manure, it would seem that the use
Of acid phosphate in this might
serve the double purpose of preserving
the ammonia of the manure and in
creasing the effectiveness Of both its
ammonia and potash.
Experiments on this point are now in
progress at the Ohio station.

The Democracy of Pennsylvania Is
much elated. 1t has good cause to be.
1t has been demonstrated to practi-
cally everybody's satisfaction that
Swallow cannot possibly win, that
many thousands of Republicans (Mr.
Wanamaker says 400.000) will not vote
for Stone and that the Democrats are
practically solid for jerks.
On Friday of last week more than
200 county chairmen and Democratic
leaders assembled in Philadelphia, on
invitation of Chairman Garman, to
take counsel as to the situation.
Ex-Postmaster Larkin, of Pittsburg,
q veteran in the party ranks, said: II

Magistrate Donnelly, representing

for jerks, and Magistrate Peter J.

made an equally inspiring address in
the evening along the same line. What
ever their local differences, the Demo-
Gratis of Philadelphia and united for the
state ticket.
The reports from every county as to
the situation and prospects were cheer
ing. The following extracts from the
story as told in the Philadelphia Rec
ord of Saturday, are given as samples.
William J. Bremen said that 80 per
cent of the lawyers of the bar in AL
Ilegheny would soon, through their rep
Iresentatives on the stump. denounce
the machine, and that the Republicans
were badly divided. Mr.. Larkin said
there were but few, IL any, Allegheny
county Democrats who had any SYM
pathy for DR.. Swallow.
"Berks can be relied upon for a good
old fashioned Democratic majority"
said Congressman Ermentrout. "We
are more thoroughly united than for
years; the opposition to us is badly di-
vided." Chairman Ancona, of Berks,
said that for eight weeks, while out
organizing, he had been in direct con-
tact with the voters. He found no dis
affection. He did not believe Swallow
would get more than Is Democratic
votes in the county.
Ex-CHAIRMAN WRIGHT SAN
GUINE.
Ex-State Chairman Robert e. Wright
Of Lehigh said: "In my county Mr..
jerks will receive a larger majority
over Quay's man, Stone, than any
Democrat has ever received over any
Republican. Our lines In Lehigh are in
tact. Swallow has been up there and
made thorough canvass. Last year
he received 800 votes. This year he will
likely get 1000. OF these 9S per cent
will be Republican. I have made 1t my
business to look up the Swallow senti.
ment among the Democrats, and my
experience as q campaigner makes me
believe that percentage to be correct.
There is not a single Democrat who
left the party in 1896 who is not now
back in the ranks with his coat off fol-

The Plum Tree Shake.

The most strikingly significant of
the developments of the arrest of
Senator Quay, his son and Attorney
Charles H. Mckee, are the letter of
Ex-Treasurer Haywood, dated July
81, 1896, and the famous "plum tree "
dispatch of Quay to Cashier Hop
kins, of the defunct Peoples Bank.
The former is an agreement on the
part of Mr.. Haywood, then State
Treasurer, not to withdraw any part
of the State deposits with tine Peo-
Piles Bank, increased by an enclosure
in that very letter, from $500, 900
10 100000, until the bank should
get back 100000 loaned by it to
Quay's son Richard.
The telegram is a Quay classic,
reading as follows:
ST. LucIE, FLA.
John S. Hopkins. If you buy and
carry a thousand Met. for me will
shake the plum tree.
M. S. QUAY.
The thousand Met" were bought
and carried, very largely to the Sena-
tors profit, if he unloaded, as it IS
supposed he did, at the right time,
but the "plum tree" did not shake
with any satisfaction to poor Hopkins,
who was driven by the banks troubles
to suicides grave.
1t is impossible to escape the in
ference arising from this correspond
ence, that Senator Quay was specu-
lating, and that Senator Quay's son
was engaged in deals of some sort, on
money belonging to the State, or
rather to the States creditors, and
deposited with the bank by State
Treasurer Haywood with that under
standing.
Whether the transactions were
crimes within the meaning of the stat
utes is question. Whether, even
though they were crimes, the perpe-
traitors can be convicted, or, being
convicted, will be punished, is like
wise problematical. But as to the
recklessness and venality of such pro-
cedures, the demoralizing influence OF
them, the danger with which they
menace the State, and the taxpayers,
and the institutions depending In
whole or in part upon the States
bounty, there is no room for doubt.
They mean at least that, under the
Republican machine, men are in of
flee for personal gain, not for public
service, and that they are ever ready
to take advantage of every opportun-
ity their positions afford or their Of
fetal powers permit, to feather their
own nests, no matter what loss or
outrage it may bring upon the people.
