One Of the surprising things in farm
ing is the gradual development of land
to a point where it will yield returns
never dreamed of by the early cultiva-
tors, says Professor James S. Doty in
American CultivatOr. Over in parts of
England and Scotland farmers and dali
rymen make a living from pasture
lands which have an assessed valuation
of S4OO and $500 an acre. They do this
when prices for the products are no
greater than American farmers receive
The secret ofstheirz success is necessi-
ty. They havesbeen forced to make ev-
cry square inchof soil pay it's highest
profit, and as aresult they have some
Of the finest pastures in the world. The
sod is so thick and compact that it is
almost impossible to cut through it.
The roots form a solid mass in the soil,
and the grass grows luxuriantly, even
defying dry weather and producing
good crops in spite Of close cropping
and late in the season, when frost ordi-
narily kills less successful pasture.
The thing of it is the farmers have
cultivated the soil, planted and replant-
ed grass seeds, dressed the pastures re-
peatedly with fertilizers and made
them in every way productive and fer
tile. The soil is not more adapted nat
urally to pastures than millions Of
acres in this country which today pro-
duce only Indifferent crops of grass.
The soil Is made artiicially rich, and
the sod Is the result of careful, inten-
siye farming. .
To Get Good Pastures.
In the first place the ideal pasture
land must be seeded with good seed,
and liberal expenditure of fertilizers
must be made annually. Then weeds
must be religiously destroyed, pulled
up root and branch every year. It is
impossible to get a good pasture unless
weeds. are pulled up. If this work is
continued carefully every year, in four
or five seasons weeds will have no
chance whatever. The grass roots will
occupy the soil so completely that no
weeds can find lodgment there.
Weeds are the bane of American
pasture fields, and the more they are
allowed to grow and produce seeds the
I more obnoxious they will become. 1t is.
impossible to get grass seed today that
will not have some weeds in it, and
the only hope of the farmer is to pull
up the weeds as fast as they show
themselves. Good culture of grass
pastures will pay as much as any kind
of farming ever attempted in this coun-
try and especially where the land is
located near large cities and good mar
kets for dairy products.

GARNETT RIPLEY CASE.
Judge Cantrill Delivers His Instruc-
lions To the Jury.

Frankfort, Ky. April lS.--Judge Can
trill this morning delivered his instruc-
lions to the jury In the case OF Capt.
Garrett Ripley, charged with being con-
nected with the Goebe assassination,
and argument OF the case was begun.
The instructions are practically the
same as those given in the case Of Ca
leb Powers.
The first holds that the defendant
must be found guilty II the charge that
Ripley conspired with Taylor and 9th
ers TO procure Goebels death, as al
legged has been proved to~ihe satisfacs
ton of the Jury. The second says that
II the jury believes from the evidence
to the exclusion of a reasonable doubt
that the defendant and others conspired
to commit an unlawful act and that in
consequence OF that act Goebel was
murdered, he Is still guilty of murder,
though the killing Of Goebel might not
have been the original object of the
unlawful conspiracy The other In
structions relate to the credibllity Of
co-conspirators as witness and to
other minor points. The court also
added ninth instruction which is to
the effect that before the defendant can
be convicted the jury must believe be-
yond all doubt that the defendant en-
tered into a conspiracy prior 10 jan
uary 30 to procure and bring about
Goebel's death.
Judge p. w Major made the first
speech for the defense. He said Goebel
was as foully murdered as any human
being ever was. but he believed with
an unalterable opinion that the defend
ant was innocent Of any part In the
conspiracy, for he had only passing
acquaintance with Governor Taylor,
and did not even know any Of the other
ALLEGED eonsprators.

was fairly attributable to Increase OF
population.
The chancellor then proceeded to re-
view the various items OF revenue, men
tioning that the revenue from beer was
1000, 600 less than the estimate.
THAT decrease" said he, is probably
attributable to the fact that very many
beer drinkers are In South Africa and
also to the decrease In the spending
power OF the people, owing TO the high
price OF coal. Experience has shown
that we have practically reached the
limit OF the profitable taxation OF spir-
It's"
The receipts from the death duties
were G1 500 900 below those of the pre-
ceding year, but he had better expecta-
lions for next year.
The prolongation Of the war and the
absence OF buyers on the stock ex-
change were responsible for the un-
satisfactory yield from stamps.
In noting that the yield from the
income tax was G 1,500O00 above the es
innate, the chancellor remarked that in
twelve years the income on which tax
alton was raid had been increased by
no less than Gl20,000,000, fact that
he hoped the house would remember
when he reached later part of his
speech.
The only other points OF the revenue
which he need touch upon were the
exceptional receipts owing to the mint
silver coinage and the telegraph re-
ceipts, which compared very unfayor-
ably with the expenditures
The total receipts amounted to glSO,-
