pany and the 100000 was likewise deposited
with another trust company. Two keys to
each box were issued, the one being held
by the legislative agent Of the company, the
other by the corrupt agent Of the members
Of the municipal assembly.
Through the action OF the courts the pas
sage Of the ordinance was prevented. The
S135, 900 corruption fund was demanded by
the legislators under the claim that they
had done their duty, all they had agreed
to do, but the company refused to honor
their claim. The investigation OF this has
led to a number of indictments connected
With the attempted purchase of this fran
chise, under one OF which the defendant has
after a fair trial been convicted and SEN
fenced to three years in the penitentiary,
and another has become a fugitive from
justice, thus confessing his guilt In the
transaction.
Men of High Standing Involved.
9TH evidence shows us that there are in
this city men of seeming great respectable
ity, directors in large corporations and
prominent in business and social circles,
who have not hesitated to put up money
for the purpose Of bribing through the as
sembly measures in which they were In
terested. When called before our body
some have added to the ohense Of bribery
the crime of perjury and only escaped the
ignominy attaching to their Infamous con
duct by reason Of the fact that the evil
dence, though satisfying our minds, would
not be admissible in the trial courts. While
legal. evidence may be lacking to bring upon
them the penalty Of their acts, yet they are
morally convicted and damned by their
connection with such debauchery. Some OF
these are as guilty as those against whom
indictments have been returned, the only
difference being that they have been more
successful in covering their tracks"
No names are mentioned in connection
with these charges Of fraud. AS a remedy
for the present conditions OF the municipal
assembly, the grand Jury suggests hat the
method OF selecting members OF the house
Of delegates should be changed so that they

is associated with thick, closely cut
mat of green. This, with the water
facilities and time at the disposal of
the average farmer, is rarely to be

not indispensable, nor is it necessary
that the grading be perfect. A slope

FOLLOW ROTATION.
Good Results Can Only Be Obtained
When the Prescribed Lines Are
Adhered To.

A proper rotatiol is of prime lmpor-
lance. but one cannot have it's good
results and continually break In upon
it's prescribed lines. Many make nc
effort to pursue a well-defined policy.
Others follow a rotation after fash
ion, but violate it's rules upon very
slight preteXts. If rotation is good
for part of a field, it is good for all of
it, and the part interfered with is al
ways the poorest part of the field, the
very part needing systematic care.
Practical farmers have found that a
careful rotation not only increases the
quantity and improves Inequality OF all
crops grown, but gradually improves
the texture and the fertility of the SOIL
In the face of these well-known facts
farmers will break their rotation,
when with little effort it might have
been kept intact. Perhaps clay
point of three or four acres is poorly
seeded to clover. Clearly the right
thing to do would be to reseed in the
spring when seeding the wheat land.
But no, this man plows it for corn.
What has he done? He has deprived
the soil of the renovating crop, and
has subjected it to the hard task of
growing two consecutive crops,
task hard even for the best of soil
Nor is this all. The next time in the
rotation that this field is seeded to
clover, it will be found still less able
to grow good crop without liberal
quantities of manure. In rotation of
crops, no part of the soil intended for
the pillow should be pastured. Don't
pasture young clover, for it needs
good growth to insure it against freez-
ing out. Don't pasture what is to be
broken in the spring, as it has ten
dency to make clods, and twentieth
century farming is not to be done
among clods. Soil, climate and mar
ket must determine what your rota-
ton is to be, and when it is once es-
tablished treat it with respect.-A. n.
Springer, in Agricultural Epitomist.

Filling Soil with Humus.

bushels of ears, and seeded it at the
last working with crimson clover. The

soil well narrowed. The last of June
It was seeded with COW peas, with a
little South Carolina rock. The COW
peas were plowed under when Is inches

a heavy plow. Wheat was sown in the
fall, month after the blowing. The
Weld was 35 bushels TO the acre, and it
has given 120 bushels of corn since

AGRICULTURAL SUCCESS
Prime Essentials Are Good Seed,
Planting in Good Soil and Sys-
tematic Cultivation.

Good seed is one of the foundations
of successful agriculture. Good Gull
ture is needed to make the best sue
cess, but no amount of culture can
make worthless seed grow or indiffer-
ent seed produce good crops.
Whether one is planting corn as a
fiedl crop or pansies to beautify the
home, cabbage by the acre of a bit of
parsley to garnish the Christmas tur-
key, the quality of the seed measures
the quantity and quality of the prod
uct.
The cost of the seed and the time
used in getting it into the ground is
lost if it does not grow. Worse than
this, when it is discovered poor seed
has been planted, the season may be
too far gone to get it in at all or in
time to have it do its best. Then how
foolish to plant any but good seed,
charged with vitality!
The quality of the seed makes no
difference in the labor necessary to
plant, no difference in the work of cul-
ture and harvesting, but vast differ
ence in the quality and quantity of
the product. Then why not plant seed
that will produce the best quality,
whether grain, vegetables or flowers?
The first cost of the seed for the best
and the Indifferent sorts varies but
little, and it is very poor economy to
waste money on poor seed when a
trifie more will procure the best.
In speaking of good seed as the
foundation of successful agriculture it
is well to remember that horticulture
is a branch of agriculture and that
trees, bushes, plants, cuttings and
scions may be regarded as the ''seed"
in the fruit plantation and that it is
just as important to have this seed
as good as that used in the field, gar
den or flower bed.
We wish it could be impressed upon
all that the seed question is of first
Importance in any and all branches of
agriculture; get that settled right and
the question of proper soil and right
culture will adjust themselves.
Get good seed, plant in good soil and
give good culture and success may be
looked for. Get poor or Indifferent
seed, and the best soil and culture the
most thorough cannot bring agricult-
urai success.-Farmer's Voice.
