Refuses % pardon Hancock.

Governor Gage Of California has
decided not to pardon John Hancock
from San Quentin prison. A request
for Hancock's pardon was received
from Governor Sadler of Nevada, who
wished TO have Hancock pardoned in
California 90 that he could be taken to
Nevada and be tried for the murder OF
two travelling companions whom he
killed in July. 1896. Hancock is serv-
ing ten years at San Quentin for rob
berry. Governor Gage is not certain OF
Hancock's conviction in case he is
taken to Nevada, and is not positive
that the murder was committed in
Nevada, as it has been said that the
crime was committed in California.
Governor Gage is considering whether
he will permit Hancock TO be taken to
Nevada to stand trial without pardon
ing him.

One Thing and ANOTHER.

1t is claimed by good authorities that
smutted corn fed to cattle, even in large
quantities, is not poisonous, but feed
ing such corn would have a tendency to
spread the disease through the manure,
especially when this is freshly applied.
There seems to be a good deal Of black.

been awarded the silver medal for the

Angora. and Hog Cholera.

A group Of breeders at the Omaha
show, informally discussing the live
stock Interests, brought up the subject
Of Angora goats in their relation to the
farm. All admitted that they are ex-
cellent for clearing land, keeping down
brush, etc. A novel theory advanced
was to the effect that where Angora
goats and swine run together in pasture
the hogs remain free from cholera, this
being observed as fact for q long series
Of years, while hogs on adjoining farms
were afflicted with this dread disease.
The bit Of experience was recognized as
possibly accidental, although something
worth further thought and observation.

Flax Growing IN the West.

On the new lands Of the west good
crops may be grown for a number of
years without manures, though in time

crops will inevitably follow. The fax

ed. The stem of the flax plant is tall
and slender, growing rapidly, and the
long roots as they push down deeply
must have something to feed upon to
make vigorous growth and good straw.
1t is on account Of this habit of the
plant to extend it's roots to such depth
in the earth that blowing and fine filth
are SO essential, and the roots must find
food or the plant will be of slow growth,
woody and deficient in fiber, and the
product inferior both as to quality and
quantity.

DWARF ESSEX RAPE.
In yvh~t#Way 1t Can BE Made to Elk
terr.inatethe Canada Thistle.

In Whct4Way 1t Can BE Made to EK-
te~rI::fnatesthe Canada Thistle.
The idea that the Dwarf Essex rape
plant, as such, is in any special way
destructive to the Canada thistle is PRO
nounced not correct by Professor Thom
as Shaw of Minnesota, who says, how
ever, in Rural New Yorker:
1t may be made so by taking advan-
tage of the late season at which it may
be planted, yet produce a full crop. Al
though rape may be asown all across
the northern states from the opening OF
spring until July, it is more common
to sow it rather late in June than at
any other season. Because Of this a
farmer who commences early enough
the previous autumn may have the this:
ties we'll under control before he sows
the rape.
One of the best modes Of doing this is
to pillow the ground shallow and with
much care late in August after the
grain crop has been reaped: Shallow
blowing is best, since it cuts off the
stems of the thistles without bringing
up the root stocks which contain latent
buds. If these are broken with the
pillow, the buds will grow and form fresh
plants. Don't let the thistles breathe
above ground after that until the rape
is planted the following June, and the
thistlea will be pretty we'll destroyed.
Then. plant the rape in drills or rows
and give the ground the most careful
cultivation until the rape is SO high
that is cannot be cultivated. If any
stray thistles appear in the line of the
row, be careful to cut them off with
the spud below the surface. The work
Of determination will be virtually COM
plete if it has been properly done.
] have in several instances routed
thistles by a method which at the same
time brought some pasture. l have
plowed thistly ground thus, sowed it
with rye and pastured the rye fall and
spring. The rye has then been followed
by rape. The ground for the rape would
be plowed late in May, then worked on
the surface until late in June, and the
rape was then sown in rows. A little
spudding was found necessary on the
line Of the rows, but the work Of de-
struction with the thistles was SO near
~ complete that the aid Of the spud the
following year on the green crop ended
the fight until fresh seeds blew on the
land.
I have grown rape broadcast many,
many times. In fact, that is the way
we nearly always grow it here on the
generous soils of the prairie, but l new
er found it to hinder the growth of this
ties when thus grown, unless in a very
few instances, when it grew exceeding
lyarank. When rape is thus grown, it
is the care bestowed in handling the
ground before the rape is sown that
will bring destruction to the thistles and
not the simple growing of the rape.
