The Milwaukee Journal has been
putting up an awful kick because of
the appointm of Jere G. Murphy,
OF Milwaukee, as private secretary
to Governor-elect LaFollette. There
is however no valid reason that can
be given why Murphy is not as much
entitled TO the place as any other
good citizen. He is in every way
qualified for the place, and We are
enclined to the belief that the kick
against him is the result of personal
feelings, more than anything else.
Murphy is an editorial writer on the
Milwaukee Sentinel, and is promin-
ent in political matters in the state.

BURNT YER LANDS.

Dean w. A. Henry, of the College
of Agriculture of the state Univer-
sity, in an article in a recent num-
Der of the Milwaukee Journal, says:
In your communication you state
that you learn that [ have been
recently north examining burned
over lands and ask my opinion of
their value for agricultural purposes

ing westward along the road as far
as \Ladysmith, at which point my
journey ceased. I unders tand that
good lands continue westward for
some distance. On either side of
the railway one observes what will
some day become very fine farm
ing country. Much of the land
within the territory described is the
equal agriculturalIty, I think of
Manitowoc and Sheboygan counties,
and time will, [ believe, make this
statement evident to all observers.
The area was originally covered
with hardwood and pine. The trees
grew in spots of strips and having
been cut off years ago, forest fires
have ruined the hardwood which
grew between the pines and even
considerable of the hardwood which
grew near the pine areas. This
gives the country in many places
a desolate appearance quite forbid
ding to land seekers who are not
we'll posted on the situation. In
general it may be said that in the
region under consideration the land
is OF excellent quality where the pine
timber grew and does not differ
materially from that which now
grows hardwood in the same region.
OF course pine stumps are difficult to
remove and their presence adds
materially to the cost of clearing the
land, On the other hand, there is
very little rubbish or dead material
lying on the ground in the vicinity
OF the pine clearings because of
previous fires, and thus there is
great deal Of grass already growing,
and the settlers can obtain pastures
and even meadows with the min
imun Of labor.

CROP THAT PAYS WELL.
When Properly Cultivated n Few
Acres Of Onions VIII Give Excel.
lent Money Returns.

When good yield and quantity can
be secured, there. are few crops that
give better return than onions. One
advantage with them is that they can
be marketed as soon as matured, or
they can be stored and kept to be
marketed whenever desired.
In growing onions successfully, ii is
essential to have good seed, to sow
early, to have rich soil, prepared in a
fine filth and to give thorough cultiva-
ton in good season. A failure'in any
one of these will often so affect the
yield or quality of the crop as to deter
mine the question of profit or loss.
1t is an exceptional case to find
soil that is naturally rich enough to
make II good crop of onions without
the addition of some manure or fer
tilizer; on the other hand it is an ex.
ception to find soil too rich. The
onion is a gross feeder. A very heavy
dressing of coarse, fresh manure could
be given and incorporated with the
soil with profit, were it not that in
most cases this kind of fertilizer con-
tains so many weed seeds as greatly to
increase the labor of clean cultivation.
On this account, SO far as is possible,
well-rotted manure should be used,
taking care to thoroughly incorporate
it with the soil on the surface Wood
ashes are one of the best fertilizers for
this crop and if there is not enough of
well-rotted stable manure available,
commercial fertilizers can often be
used to good advantage.
Onions grow SO near the surface that
the manure should be applied ami
worked in the surface, and for that rea-
SON top dressing after blowing will
generally be the best plan.
One advantage with onions is that
they may be grown on the same land
for several years without change if
liberal manuring is done, and if clean
cultivation is given the first year this
will be found quite an item.
The very first favorable opportunity
in the spring should be taken advan-
tage of to prepare the ground and SOW
the seed as earliness is an important
item. The soil should be prepared in a
fine filth.
A better termination of the seed and
a more vigorous start to grow will be
secured while the cultivation can be
commenced earlier and clean cultiva-
ton be given with less labor if care is
taken to have the soil thoroughly pre-
pared in a good filth before the seed is
sown. Mark out the rows ten or twelve
inches apart. If the drill is used it will
mark them out, SOW the seed and cover
all at once. One advantage in using
the drill is that the seed will be dis
tributed in the drill rows more evenly
and be covered at more uniform
depth. 1t is best to use plenty of seed
so as to secure good stand of plants.
1t is better to thin out than to replant.
Give clean cultivation from the start,
keeping the soil in good filth until the
crop is matured.--St. Louis Republic.

SPANISH STEEL ROAD.
Saving ia the Cost OF Repairs Paid
for Its Construction In u Very
Short Time.

In response to inquiries made by the
department of state, Consul Washing
ton at Valencia, Spain, has given the
following report of steel roadway
that has been in use in that country
for seven years:
"Thc road between Valencia and
Grao is two miles in length, and Az
average of 1890 vehicles pass over it
daily. Until 1892, it was constructed Of
flint stone. The annual cost of keep
ingi in repair was about $4,000 pesetas.
At the rate of exchange at that date,
this amounted to $5,41O.
"The construction of a steel road
way was determined on, and the an
nual cost of keeping in repair he CEN
trail zone of road thus relieved from
heavy tlaflic-whTh proceeds over the
steel rals-is now only $500 pesetas,
or about $3.50 at the present rate of
exchange.
"a belgium firm received the con-
tract to furnish the steel work, hay
ing bids less than Spanish. firms at
Barcelona and Bilbao.
The length of road so built is 80
kilometers U.9Ss miles,. The cost per
kilometer (0.G2137 mile) was A, 100
pesetas $500.
"The total cost of the road laid was
60,9j0 pesetas ($9.50G). The expense
in detail was:
Pesetas
Steel construction ..............4il0 0-$6, 800
Transportation and laying

tweenralls and lateral zones 10, Coo 2, 100
Total Observation-Disclosures. go $3.50 500
"The rails, during the seven years
they have been in position, exhibit II
wear of one decimal of millimeter
yearly, and have not required repair
ing.
sample room is allowed between
the rails for two horses to walk
abreast. Horses do not appear to slip
on rails of this construction.
"At each side of the rail are layers
of binding stones, the paved road being
higher than The face of the rails.
"The municipality of Valencia is OF
opinion that the saving in cost of re-
pairs through road of this dcscrip
ton pays for its construction in
short time, and other and similar road
ways are in contemplation"

with shirt waist sets to match and

lace stocks, with frills of silk, and lace
stocks with bias folds of colored vel
vet; long scarfs and sashes of soft
crepe de chine, some plain and Others
having figures with knotted fringe
ends. Lace. chiffon and net tichus
also attracted my attention because OF
their beauty. They have narrow black
velvet ribbon run through beading or
meshes. and others have scrolls of
white tatfeta silk appliqued in various
WAYS with narrow ruched ribbon.
In parasols one of the most striking
novelties was one of silk in Il Partisan
design with border like handker-
chief. This was almost square. with Il
aeep frill of ribbon around. Still an
other striking parasol was of hello
trope silk with clusters and rows of
white ribbon almost covering it, and
deep fall of white mousseline de sole.
\ third was of cardinal silk with APP
plique of black French lace. A fourth
was of turquoise blue silk with gold
and silver passementerie, and fall of
duchess lace all around.
OF handkerchiefs there is no end of
variety and all of the daintiest and
sweetest designs. They are of fine
sheer linen with narrow borders, and
Ia the. corners hand embroidered with
daisies, pansies, forget-me-nots and
clusters of ferns in their natural colors.
Others are of sheer linen plaids in blue
and white, red and white and hello
trope, and buff and white, with mar
row borders the color of the FREEDOM
mating plaid.
In chain purses there are many beau
tiful novelties, and they are quite n
fad for the summer season, and with
good reason. I saw them in sterling
silver in the bright and French gray
finish, gold and oxidized metal. Some
of them were studded with jewels, the
amethyst, rubies, emeralds and tur-
quoise being the seeming favorites.
One can get them in all sizes.

experience. Thick sowing will prevent
that to some degree, but ii is sometimes

not be sown thickly enough to prevent
