had the best success with spring sowing
using light sowing of grain for a nurse
crop and using a large proportion of
clover. about 20 pounds of clover and the

any timothy for several years. | like to
have the ground well enriched by dress
ing it well for some previous crop, and
then use about 600 pounds OF good super

Boers Are Brave But Not Just.

War between England and the Transvaal would largely turn upon the use of the railroad, fifty-six miles long, that extends from the Transvaal to the sea at Delagoa bay. This railroad belongs to the Portu- guese government, as does Deagoa bay, and the territory adjacent to it. The Portuguese strip of territory is a buffer state. because 1t separates British holdings from German East Africa, and it is in every respect an important bit of territory. If President Kruger is deprived of the use of Delagoa bay and it's railroad, he is com pletely isolated Already arms and stores have been stopped at the port and it be- gins to look as if England and Portugal have come to an understanding.
 The grievances of the Uitlanders are numerous. The lack of representation is perhaps the chief trouble. The franchise is practically confined to Boers, although the Uitlanders pay nine-tenths of the taxes But this is not all. There is the railroad trouble A Dutch company holds an ex- elusive right to build railways, and the Uftlanders cannot secure the lines they greatly need The lines in operation charge exorbitant rates, sometimes going to 15 cents per mile per ton. This involves a heavy tax, and so does the dynamite con- cession, which the volksraad has just voted to maintain. A Dutch syndicate holds an exclusive right to manufacture dyna mite, and 1t demands for that all-im- portant article 75- shihugs case. An

New York Has a Color Line.

New York is one of the leading negro cities in the land, possessing a negro popu- lation running we'll up towards 5000. There is a downtown negro district, and in the Tenderloin country there is another In the Tenderloin the board of public educa- tion proceeded to build a school for negro children, providing it with good teachers, and all the equipments of the best public schools in the city; and when the school had. been completed an order was issued debarring negro children from attendance upon schools frequented by white children. This order aroused at once the doctrinaires and other disturbers of public order and peace, and steps were at once taken in the courts to set aside the obnoxious col- or line order. The case was duly heard by judge of the New York supreme court. and he held that when separate school has been established for colored children, which has equal facilities with other pub- lie schools, the board of education has the power to exclude colored children from the places of education provided for white pu- pills"
 This decision is subject to review by the New York court of appeals, and perhaps by the supreme court of the United States; but as law and common sense generally go to- gether. it is reasonable to presume that the New York decision will be affirmed, although this would be a great shock to the equality agtators of that section of the country. As matter of fact color prejudice is universal The white races do not like the dark races. This is the case the world round, and the New York case would under similar circumstances be re- peated in Sweden or in any other land wholly dominated by the Caucaseian race Illinois had a similar case in Alton, and other cases will be apt to arise in the northern states from time to time
