the United States in the category Of
nations which are entitled to conven-
tional duties much less than the regu-
lar rates. United States trade is ex-
pected to benefit to the value Of about
ST, 5,O0O, ,0o0 q year from the treaty.
The Italian treaty has just passed the
Chamber Of Deputies. The principal
concession in it is the reduction Of
duty on United States wheat.
In consequence of the protests
from Porto Rico that unscrupulous
persons were taking advantage of the
few Offices that had been opened for
the exchange of America for Porto
Rlcan money and practically robbing
the inhabitants, Secretary Gage has
decided to open twenty additional
stations for this purpose. AT present
the transfer can be made only at San
Juan, Ponce, and Mayaguez. Az the
period in which Porto Rican money
will continue legal tender expires
Aug. l, it is necessary to establish .
number of additional transfer points.
About twenty Of the most important
post Offices are being selected, and
the postmasters there will be used
for effecting the change, free Of cost.
The Post Office Department has
realized a profit of $4,000 on the
sale of books Of postage stamps up
to the present time. About 2,250,O00
Of these books of all kinds have been
sold, and the department belives that
the experiment Of selling stamps in
this form has proven TO be satisfac-
tory, and it will continue to be one of
the permanent institions of the de-
partment.
Lieut. Gen. Miles has issued the
following circular tor the special re-
cruitment of men for the artillery arm
Of the service: Recruits are required
in large numbers for the artillery,
aud recruiting officers will be con-
stant in their efforts to obtain suita-
bic men for that arm. Great care
must be taken, however, to see that
the army regulations and the pub
lished instructions governing the ex-
animation of applicants for enlistment
are strictly observed, and that no re-
cruit be accepted who 10 not qualified
in all respects to perform the duties
of soldier. To meet the special re-
quirment of the artillery, recruits
for that arm should be young, active
men Of a good degree of intelligence.
and large proportion Of those en-
listed for the heavy artillery should
in addition possess fair knowledge
of arithmetic.

TEACHERS ASSOCIATION.
Will Meet Mt Mammoth Spring this Yea1-
Best Educators Will BE In Attendance.


Best Educators Will BE In Attendance.
We desire to call the attention of
the teachers and others interested
in education, to the fact that it is
only few weeks until the meeting
of the South Central Teachers Asso-
citation, which meets at Mammoth
Spring, Aug. 9th, 9th and 10th.
These meetings are growing in inter-
est each year and the meeting this
year. bids fair to surpass all former
meetings. We had the pleasure, last
year, of attending the meeting at
Mountain Grove and know it to have
been a very interesting meeting, not
| only to teachers, but to everyone who
attended. Some of the finest educa-
tors and leading literary men in the
United States were present and said
some good things to the teachers.
President II. S. Wilson informs us
that the program for this year will
be far more interesting than that Of
last year. Such leading educators as

President Morrisville College, j

w H Lynch, Principal Mountain
Grove Academy, F A Hall, Drury
College, Springfield Missouri, and
many other prominent educators,
have promised to be present. 1t is to
be joint meeting Of the teachers of
Northern Arkansas, who are to meet
with the teachers of South Central
Missouri, at Mammoth Spring. This
is one of the finest summer resorts
in the west and the citizens of the
town have agreed to entertain the
teachers in the best manner possible.
We will say to the teachers of Doug
las county that you will miss a great
treat If you stay away from this meet
ing, for it is going to be the best
since the organization of the Associa-
tion.-Dougias County Herald.

New JERSEYS New Roads.

The report of the Commissioner OF
Public Roads of New Jersey states
that under State aid a total of 40
miles Of new roads have been built,
at cost of SIS, 5,S26.06. AS the State
pays one-third of the cost Of build
ing, the total expenditure up to the
present time was 50, 147, ,47S.1S. This
work was done in thirteen counties.
Last year the operations were greatly
enlarged, the total construction being
ia 2-3 miles, as against 81 IL miles
the previous year. In 1896 eight
counties took the benefit of the State
law, and in 1878 eleven counties,
and last year thirteen counties.
There are now on file with the State
Commissioner of Public Roads peti
tions from sixteen counties involving
a total expenditure by the State oil
81, 726, ,644. 70 for 504.90 miles of road.
The State appropriation for this yea1
is $3.50, 900, so that only fraction ol
the work petitioned for can be done
this year. Labor and materials also
cost more, and there will be less to
show for the annual appropriation
than last year.
: The; report of the commissioner is
illumined with inspiriting views ol
the roads "before ana after" the
stone was put on, and not q little ef-
fort is made to advertise certain ia
vored quarries. AS whole the
report is conducive to the continued
expenditure of the public money III
this direction.

Care of Milk, and Churnlng.

As soon as drawn from the COW, put
the milk where no bad odors can reach
il. or better, as soon as o pail is filed
strain it into the can and place in o
tank of cold water or run through the
separator if ore is used. If ice is
plentiful, reduce the temperature OF
the water to forty-6ve degrees and
practically all the cream will be OBJ
tanned. Do not mix the nights and
mornings milk if the best grade OF
butter is expected.
Change the water in the tank often
enough to prevent its becoming foul.
If the water is kept at about ffty-tive
degrees, practically ali the cream will
rise in twenty-four hours. Skim and
when enough is obtained for churn-
ing, raise to temperature Of sixty to
sixty-fye degrees to ripen. Hasten
the ripening by using sour skimmilk
as starter. In winter churn at six
ty-fve degrees; in summer ffty-fve
to sixty is preferable. AS soon as the
granules are the size of wheat grains,
draw off and wash until all the butter
milk is removed. Work, salt and
market as soon as possible. If you
are so unfortunate as to get poor
grade of butter it must be consumed
at once or it will soon be unfit forus

Growing the Professions.

Chicago. too, notices the crowdinS
in the professions, not as something
new, but as becoming intensified. 1t
is estimated that out of total OF
1000 lawyers in Chicago 500 are
handling the litigation Of the city and
only about 200 are making $4,000 or
over each year The passing of the
national bankruptcy act, it is claimed,
cut off large and profitable source Of
revenue for lawyers, While the legi-
innate business of the courts has not
shown any marked increase, the influx
of lawyers from the country has been
steady and uninterrupted, and the
stream of Blackstonians has been
yearly augmented by heavy contri-
buttons from the colleges and univer-
sites. OF doctors the number in Chi
cago is estimated at 1900. If the
city had a population Of 100000 this
would give physician to every 500
inhabitants, which means that there
are four or five times as many Dhysi-
clans as are needed.

The Maintenance of Fertility.

NO soil In itself Will hold Its Ter.
tility. Nature cannot reclaim 1t in
half the time man can. If man acts
in unison with nature, thereclamation
will be rapid. To do this tillage is
first necessary. Many years ago,
Jethro Tull said, "Tillage is manure. :"
He was right in so far as he went, but
be had learned onlS bali OF his lesson,
Tillage fs manure, butfhe otter hasf
of the lesson is humus and must be
kept in the soil.
Tillage now changes unavailable
plant food into the available form.
The great agent to do this is the air.
Keep the air from the tomato can, or
the fruit jar, and the fruit and vege'
table keep pure and we'll preserved.
Admit the air and decay and decom-
position at once results. So with the
soil. Admit the air to it and in it,
and decay and decomposition at once
result. What is this decay and de-
composition? The change OF unas:
similable plant food into the assimil-
able form. This is the great Office for
the air in the soil. This results from
tillage. We have scarcely begun to
realize how important tillage is in
this respect, but it is physical i'm
provement, and that is the greatest
thought of our incoming agriculture.
Allied with tillage to promote phys
ical improvement is the growing Of
clover. Glover, by means Of the
tubercles that grow in its roots, take
from the air what is unavailable
nitrogen. and changes it into the
assimilable soil nitrogen. The result
obtained from analysis by Cornell
University show that over 1900
pounds of nitrogen were added to the
soil by so doing. This, in great
measure, answers the supplying Of
this important fertilizing ingredient.
Where annual husbandry is followed,
a good forage is necessary for profit
able feeding. There is no better for
age for New England farmers than
clover. It is almost balanced ration
in itself, and has nearly three times
the feeding value that timothy has
IF the soil is IN any state of tiltbs
clover will grow, and in its growing,
it furnishes nitrogen and superior
forage for all kinds Olive stock, Now,
what about the other two important
elements of plant growth; is there any
way to getpotash and phosphoric acid?.
