Many weeds appear suddenly, and it
is usually q problem to know from
whence they came. When hay or
other materials are bought and brought
on the farm the seeds OF weeds may
also come. The grain thrssher and
separator also sometimes carries weed
seeds. hence it should be thoroughly
cleaned before carried from one farm
to another. The majority OF the seeds
of weeds are scattered in manure that
has not been decomposed.

The dairyman who can sell his cream
or butter and keep his skim milk for
his young stock will get larger profit,
and his farm will never become poorer,
as the substance in butter is not taken
from the soil, but from the air. Milk
is more suitable for young pigs than
any other food, and when bran is pur-
chased and fed in connection with the
milk there is brought on the farm O

Causes OF Business
Depression

The subject of the prosperity OF
Puerte Rico brings up many ques.
tions for settlement. What is true
prosperity 7 Does it rest in the
spending of money on public impro-
vements or does it rest on that con-
dition of public affairs whereby men,
with knowledge of the world, would
naturally invest money.
There are many Americans on
this island-men with money and
brains-ready and eager to invest
their money, but with no induce
ment to do it. What is the cause
of thisf Capital never seeks a
country in which the political con-
dition weuld not invite it. What
are the conditions here which would
tend to invite capital9 No proper
understanding with the home coun.
try, an unsettled condition of polit-
ical affairs on the island itself and a
depression in every direction OF
commercial life. What inducement
exists, therefore, for capital to come
here I At present, none; and never
will be until the affairs are settleda
Complaints are constantly made
that there is no business here. 1t
is true. The reason is apparent.
but the cause right and the result
is as certain as the law of graVita-
tiOD.
Our cable dispatches to-day show
that special meeting of the Cabinet
has been held in Washington to con-
slider Legislation for Puerto Rico, so
We may now look for early develop
