ITS PHILIPPINE POLICY
Most Wicked and Foolish Chapter in
American History.
WE SHOULD LE,vE THE PHILIPPINES
So Declares the Venerable Senator and His Ad-
dress is Followed by Such Pronounced
Applause That the Presiding
Officer Prntesis.
Officer Protests.
(Ry the Associated Press.)

Washington, d. c., May PA notable
contribution to the discussion of the
Philippine question was made in the
Senate today by Mr. Hoar, Of Massachu-
setts. His views on the subject are well
understood, but his expression of them
today was profoundly interesting and
even impressive. When the venerable
Senator began to speak, every Senator
at the capitol was in his seat and for
two hours and half his address con-
sumed he was accorded the most care
ful attention, not only by his colleagues
on the floor, but also by the people in the
thronged galleries.
MIR. Hoar confined himself closely to
his manuscript He denounced the at
titude of the government in the Philip
pines IS one Of the most wicked and
foolish chapters in American history.
He urged that the United States should
withdraw from the islands and permit
the people there to erect their own gov
ernment, as had been done in Cuba. He
sharply arraigned General Funston for
tn methods he pursued in the capture of
Aguinaldo, and intimated strongly that
had the Senate been aware Of the facts
Funston might not have been confirmed
nj his recent promotion He hoped that,
as the iTevocable step had not been
taken by the United States, better coun-
sells yet would prevail and that this gov
ernment would leave the Philippines
Spontaneous applause swept over the
Senate and the galleries at the conclus-
ion Of the speech. Such demonstration
is very unusual on the floor of the SEN
ate. So pronounced was it that the ore
siding officer called the attendtion of
Senators to the rule prohibiting any cx-
pressions of approval or disapproval.
Mr.. Teller, Of Colorado delivered a
speech in the nature of a history of the
legislative proceedings through which
teh new Cuban republic was erected.
Mr. Teller said the action of the United
States regarding Cuba was worthy of
our great nation, III this instance. had
put aside greed and conquest and had
erected a monument among the nations
of the world.

 Ducks are the choicest of all ta- ble fowls, and it is not necessary that they be canvass-back, or be fanked with green-seal. Pel1in, Rouen, Ayles- bury, Cayuga, or even wild ducks, are each better than the others.

 For a farmer to shorten up on any crop because prices are low is often bad policy. So many do so that next season prices are likely to be high. Before deciding on crops the farmer should do some solid, deep thinking.

SAVING OF FARM MANUREs.
How to Save and Utilize the Escap- ing Gases From the Barn
 yard Manure Pile.

Within the last year there has come more forcibly than ever to my attention one point about the saving of farm manures that think should be we'll understood by every farmer. have long known that there is waste of nitrogen about almost every stable. The bad eders are -tell-tale evidence of this fact. It is nitrogen escaping into the air that causes the most of the foul smells that pollute the air about our premises, and this is one of the very ingredients that
Newport daily independent., 1902-05-23

we ought to preserve. When it gets into the air it is gone beyond our reach. How to prevent these rn- wholesome and offensive, and, at the same time, valuable gases from es- caping is the point which l wish to make plain. 1t is easy enough and should not be omitted by any pro- gressive farmer.
 It is done by using absorbents. We know that there are various things that have chemical affinity for each other, and it is by properly using this idea and that of the mechanical affinity of substances, as well, that we should accomplish this end. There are two principal materials that we should use, and both are easily ob- tained and worth all they cost aside from their absorbent qualities.
 The first is kainit. It contains about 12h per cent. of potash in an available form for plant food. In ad- dition it contains chlorine and other substances, that, when brought in contact with the nitrogenous matter III UhC Sldllo duu SuCICAo WhOAS A"A AA animals are kept, unite and form compounds that are at once practically scentless and in the best possible forms to be retained and be- come an important part of the farm supply of manure. About one quart per day for each animal is about what should be used.
 ac acid phosphate. This is the product that is made by grinding and then treating with sulphuric acid the phosphate rock that is mined in cer- tain places in South Carolina, Flori- da, Tennessee and Canada. It contains not far from IA per cent. of phos- phoric acid, and the rest is largely sulphate of lime, which is also called gypsum, and when ground is known as land plaster and is bought and ap- piled to land because of the chemical effect it has upon other elements, causing them to become available plant foods. Now, when this dis solved phosphate rock is sprinkled about the animals, it too absorbs the nitrogen, SOneWndU Cuc SdIllC ciS oOCo the kainit, purifying the stables and making a most excellent manure out of what would otherwise have been largely a waste and also nuisance If one quart is used for each horse or cow each day, it will be found about right.
 If these simple things are done on any farm, they will prove about the most profitable ways to get these highly useful plant foods, potash and phosphoric acid, into the soil. They will be mixed with the farm manures and balance them up materially; for they are both needed to reinforce materials that are often quite want ing in both potash and phosphoric acid The absorbents are badly need ed and the benefits from this point alone are often worth all they cost. There is a double gain, and those who do not use one or both of them are making a mistake. Of the two, there is a better effect from the use O; kainit.-E H. Van Deman, in Far mers' Home Journal.
