2 bin was introduced providing for tne
annual appropriation of $4,000 to be
expended under the direction of the
agricultural experiment station Of the

cut down to $4,000 for two years. The

English Worlds Work.-The recent
discussions in the Austrian papers on
the subject of indirect medication
have been followed by various articles
ir the French papers. The agricul-

is continuing its experiments with
the cultivation of vegetables increas-
ing by artificial means the proportion

The idea is by no means new, as iu
1859 Or Miraud wrote book show
ing that the terapeutical virtues of
various vegetables might be increased
if alimented with certain substances
containing medicinal properties. In
1850 DR. Champouillon communicated
TO the French Academy of Sciences
the results of his experiments with
the strawberry plant and the vine
which had been watered with nitrate
and carbonate of potash. Dr. Cham
pOuilon mentions two cases of
dropsy which were cured by a diet OF
strawberries saturated with nitrate
of potash and white wine mineralized-
In 1897 NJ Emile Levy tried the ex-
pertinent of feeding fowl with corn
and salts of iron. 1t appears that
the eggs thus obtained contained
fair share of these salts in a form
perfectly assimilable.
Fertilizers of various kinds are
now playing an important role in ag-
riculture. Hitherto phosphates and
other substances have been largely
used, but the latest experiment has
been to employ fish which is no long
er comesuble FOR this purpose. IN
America about 100000 tons of men
baden is caught annually and about
90 per cent of this is now dried and
used for fertilizing purposes.
Since il has been realized that fish
can be used for fertilizing purposes
the refuse of the markets has been
greatly in demand, SO that this now
creates a new industry.

The cost of commercial fertilizers,
as compared with their efficiency, is
a question of great importance to Wis

a question whether the different fer

The cost of fertilizers may be cal

TEAM-TRoLLEY CONSOLIDATION
The Legislature Should Give Heed
to the Railroad Commissioners.

to the Railroad Commissioners.
Boston rranscript.-The new bill,
without any provision whatever as to
the issue of stock, must rely for safe
guarding the public in the matter of
stock issues upon the limitations i'm
posed by the general RAILROAD law. 1t
is true that the law provides that the
issues of additional stock by street
railway companies must be approved
by a majority of the railroad commits
Sioners, who shall determine if the
amount of stock to be issued is "rea.
sonably necessary for the purpose for
which such issue of stock or bonds
has been authorized" Nevertheless
the board of railroad commissioners
suggested the clause omitted by the
committee, given above and does not
approve of this new bill, the reports
given out to the contrary notwith-
standing. The reason for this is that
the board believes the original bin 20
be better one.
1t is admitted that the provision
now omitted gives great powers to
the railroad commissioners, but the
bill as drawn retained all the obliga-
tiOns on existing corporations, and
therefore retained in the commission
the power 10 regulate issues of stocks
and bonds. The board of railroad
commissioners is composed of able
and honest men, possessing the conf
dence of the people of the common
wealth to an unusual degree. That
board should be the close adviser of
the law-making body in any matter
which involves the relations of street
railways or steam railroads, with the
people. Recent developments point
TO a general absorption to the trolly
roads by the steam roads. condition
which tends to monopolies of trans
portation. 1t is conceivable that the
steam roads, having each in its terri
tory swallowed up the trolly lines,
might find it to their interest to con-
solidate. establishing complete
monopoly of transportation in New
England In such case the meas
ure of control vested in the railroad
commissioners should be greater and
not restricted.
If the present hill cuts off the power
Il the railroad commissioners to eX-
ercise a judicious control over the is
sues of new stock by the existing
and relieves them of re-
strictions as to increasing the fixed
charges against the public it ought

sition of the board of railroad com

ordinary tobacco shed. with the ex.
ception that the spaces between the
strlngers are just one-haIf the distance.
Inc curing process of the Sumatra
does not differ materially from the
curing of the ordinary field tobacco.
1t is, however, necessary to exercise
greater care in curing Sumatra, since
the leaves are more tender and much
more valuable. Moisture and TEN.
perature must be controlled by artl
hclal means. The common method
now employed in curing tobacco tends
10 produce a brittle and lifeIess pro-
duct. and these undesirable qualities
constitute at the present time the
chief objection to the American shade
grown Sumatra. The curing shed
should be so constructed that the
curing proceeds slowly and uniformly,
and so that the tobacco can be gotten
into the case when desired, without
waiting for favorable weather condi
lions. After the tobacco is all cured,
and when the mid-ribs of the leaves
are perfectly dry, it should be taken
down from the stringers and the laths,
in the following manner:
one person holds the lath with one
hand, while another person pushes the
leaves together and cuts the strings at
both ends of the lath. The string is
then wrapped about the but-ends OF
the leaves which are placed in bundles
or bales. The leaves must be soft ana
pliable. otherwise the work is apt TO
be injurious to them.
Before the shade-grown Sumatra is
placed on the market, it must pass
through a sweating or fermenting
process. the fermenting must be
done IN room where the heat and
moisture can be controlled at will.
The Cost and Profit.
The development of the Shade
grown Sumatra industry in Wisconsin
Will depend upon the market and the
price obtained for the product. An
accurate account of the cost of grow.
ing two acres of Sumatra for a period
OF two years, shows the cos u be, il
1902, for tent. post lumber and con-
sjruction, S1,0S6.9S; for la lCr, includ-
ing seed, plants painting, cultivatine,
harvesting, curing and fermenting,
S915.25; and in 1908. for labor, includ-
in repairs of tent, $1,392S0: "a total
cost Of $3,395.03. The sales amounted
to S5076.30, making the total net re-
ceipt S1.6S1.27.
This would make net profit of
S420.32 per acre per year. The to-
bacco was sold at prices ranging from
81 to 30 cents per pound, averaging a
little less than $1.25 per pound.
The total yield after fermentation
from the two acres was 2,314 lbs. for
the crop of 1902 and for the crop OF
1903, 2,110 lbs.
