In the June number of the North
american ReUieaU, the Rt Hon. Sir
Richard Temple, formerly Governor
Of Bombay, gives most impressive
account of the vast possessions and
the numerous points Of vantage held
by Great Britain in Asia, illustrating
the means by which she exercises
practical domination over large part
of that continent. Sir Richard points
out, also, how certain recent move
ments of some of the European pow
ers, which have revealed purpose of
challenging or weakening her position
there, impose upon her the necessity
of policy of watcbfulness. Her re-
S sources he regards as equal to any
emergency. He says:
s'Whether the present is fitting
time for other Powers to try any con-
tests with Britain, is a question for
them to determine. Britain is at the
acme of her 'puissance;' neverihas she
displayed such resourcefulness as she
has recently displayed in South Africa,
and yet her resources are very far
from exhaustion; indeed, they have
not even yet been adequately called
forth. She is still ready to meet any
combination that could reasonably be
anticipated, and if the present war
shall be speedily terminated, then she
will have forces available in a strength
never before equaled in all her event
full history. She can afford to regard
other nations quite complacently,
whatever they may say, realizing
what her rights are throughout the
world and knowing we'll how to guard
themn

We CENSUS TAKER.

In view of the fact that the census
enumerators have started out on their
tour of investigation, the following
absurdity, ascribed to them, is inter-
esting:
What's your name?
Were you born Or naturalized?
How old are you?
Your age next birthday?
Age last birthday?
Are you married?
Is your wife married?
How many wives living?
Are you alive?
If not, where are you?
How many children living?
Are they twins or triplets?
Have they been vaccinated for
tuberculosis?
Did you have any parents, and if so,
how many?
Are you lunatic or member of
the legislature?
Are you a member of the Anti-Sa-
loon League or the Fish and Game
League?
If neither, which?
Do you think Bass Ale conductive
to longevity or hilarity?
Are you in favor of prohibition or
high treason?
Can you breathe?
Are you candidate for member of
Congress?
If not, who are you?
Are you a human being or politi-
clan?
Have you paid your dog tax?
Do you believe in high tariff for rev.
enue only, or the gold standard at is

Have you ever had appendicitis or
are you colonel or candidate for
office, and if so is there mortgage on
it, and how niue b and at what rate Of

1t has been asserted that the princi-
pal difficulty in coping with the
famine in India is the Brahmanical
custom regarding the slaughter of
cattle. Hundreds of thousands of
animals might have been used for
food, when the crops failed, had not
the priestly law forbade the sacrifice.

by the British government recently
in defeating vote to provide relief,

The best disinfectants are pure air
and sunshine. Without the aid of
these disinfectants the most power
full chemicals used to purify pest
place may prove of no avail. 1t is
more necessary that house sewer
be ventilated than that the waste
pipes that lead into it be trapped. A
strong solution of potash and boiling
water poured down the sink and into
waste pipes will disinfect them suff-
GENTLY for the season. If about four
quarts of boiling water are poured
over five cents worth of copperas,
and the solution scattered over the
ground where the garbage pail has
stood during the winter, and into ces :
pools or any similar spot that needs
disinfection, it will usually be all that
is necessary, provided air and sum
shine can also reach the place. It is
not safe to trust the eyes; that which
looks clean may be very unclean, but
there is usually foul odor to any spot
needing disinfection.

VERMONT POSSIBILITIES.

John Gould, the noted Ohio dairy
man, has beer talking at some of the
Vermont farmers institutes, In Civ
ing some Of his observations in regard
to Vermont crops, soil and possibii-
ties he says: We honestly doubt if
Vermont has as yet fully realized the
possibilities Of her own resources on
home grain and clover growing. With
such evidence as we have come across
we do not believe that the state, with
clover established and corn growing
pushed would find it necessary to buy
a bushel of western corn with which
to feed their diaries.
am sure Vermont is buying mill
ions of dollars worth of feed, making
an enormous state tax, which might
be saved, and in their northern eli
mate it would seem that oats, peas,
clover and the like could be grown to
perfection and save so much of the
protein bills, though if grain must be
purchased it would be the best policy
to buy gluten, bran, etc.
Inc man IN the west mas little con-
ception of the agricultural value of
Vermont, which, while not level, like
the western prairie, is wonderfully
fertile. Its grasses are very fine; blue
grass has almost the luxurious growth
Of northern Ohio, and no end of good
stone with which to fence farms and
make permanent roads.

OUR FARMERS.
WORN OUT GRASS LAND.

1t does not pay to keep fields in
grass long after taey have ceased to
be profitable. One has but to ride
through almost any part Of our coun-
| try in June, even in the good years
| for grass, to see some meadows that
| utterly fail to produce the crops they
| should. IF the meadows could make
| themselves understood, they would
! tell US that they have been run down
| by constant cropping without putting
anything back, and have been also
further sinned against by being trod-
den hard by horses, sheep and cattle.
/ With halfway proper care and treat
! ment from year to year such lands
would still be giving good results.
AS soon as meadow begins to run
| out it begins to get weedy. It is then
of little use to try to recover the for
mer conditions by manuring. 1t is
| far easier to pillow the ground and put
it into some crop that will require
working Of the ground. In some 10
calities such meadows are turned over
and reseeded at once with grass seed,
but this requires a good deal of work
with the plows, cultivators and har-
rows. The soil that has not been
turned over for some years has a
strong tendency to remain in Jumps
and clods, especially if the sod is still
quite thick.
The most simple way to renew the
land is to put it into some crop other
than grass and keep it SO for num-
Der of years. If it can be put into
some crop that is to be heavily ma
nured, so much the better for the
subsequent grass crops. Rotation,
however, is not a necessity to the
meadow. In Europe meadows are
kept permanently in grass, and it is
said that the Oldest ones are the best.
This result, however, is obtained by
Systematic manurlng, and the keeping
off Of all animals No attempt is made
to make the meadow produce both
hay crop and serve as pasture.
