THE REGULAR Democrats appear to have had
walkover in the organization OF the Mary
land Legislature. In the caucuses on Tuesday
night their states went through all right
although the contest for President of the Sem
ate was a very sharp one-and the caucus
nominees were promptly elected on Wednes-
day The officers of the two houses are:
President Of the Senate-Joseph B. Seth, of
Talbot county; Secretary-Robert Moss, of
Anne Arundel; Reading Clerk-Walter r.
Towsend, of Baltimore county; Journal Clerk
w. 7. Giles, Of Baltimore city Sergeant-at-
Arms-John R. Shower, of Carroll. For
Speaker of the House-Carville D. Benson, of
Baltimore county Chief Clerk-William A.
Percy, of Dorchester Journal Clerk-John T.
Burch, of Prince Georges; Reading Clerk
II. d. Wolfe of Howard; Engrossing Clerk
Charles D. Merryman, of Baltimore city Ser
geant-at- Arms-John H. Cox, of Somerset.
Mr.. Benson had a walkover for the Speaker
ship. In the caucus he received SO votes to
IL divided between two other candidates.
AT THE present session of the Legislature
the board of trustees of the Maryland Peni-
Tertiary will ask for an appropriation of $685.
600 to build wing to the present building for
the accommodation of female prisoners. 1t is
proposed to make this areformatory, but War
den Weyler does not approve of this idea. He
says that in other cities where reformatories
exist the prison population does not decrease,
but increases. He says that two-thirds of the
prisoners in the Maryland Penisentiary are
negroes. and are not very susceptible to ref
0rmation. he further says that the scheme
is bad and that the State would not be justified
in spending the same amount that he wants
for female wing in establishing and erecting
a reformatory. 1.-THE State would pay out
money for reformatory with no hope for re-
turn, while s225,OO0 appropriated to the peni-
ientiary would be paid back in five years.
Our net earnings last year were sS5, 400, and
new contracts which we have would bring the
amount 10 something between $4,000 and
e45. 600. PIE Maryland Penitentiary is re-
formatory. andis doing the same work of other
relormatories. !"

The Feed of Cows,

Sudden changes Of feed should lie
avoided, especially if very marked, as
in changing from dry to green feed.
Special care is required when COWS are
rut on pasture in the spring and when
first turned on rye or clover. Only a
small quantity OF green feed should be
given at first, the amount being in.
creased as from day to day the dry
feed Is reduced. II care is not eXer-
cised at such times, the COWS system
Is likely TO become deranged and the
milk will then have a very disagree.

adjusted to the new conditions and no
bad results follow.
When feeding turnips or cabbage.
the difficulty Is frequently experienced
of having d'sagrCcable odors in the
milk. This difficulty may be largely. ii
not entirely avoided by feeding after
milking rather than just before, us the
peculiar odor produced by these feeds
will then leave the COWS system be.

GRAIN WEEVILS.

The wheat bins of tie farmer some
times contain grain weevils, which be-
come very destructive where grain is
TO be used for flour making OF any
ksld or for meal making. Where such
insects are numerous, about the only
way they can be gotten rid OF Is by
the use of carbon-bisulphide. This can
be purchased Of the druggist, or al
least the druggist can send to some
wholesale house for It. 1t can be ap.
piled TO the bins by inserting IA piece
of gas pipe and allowing the chemica!
to run to the bottom. no lamp should
be around when this is done, as this
chemical Is very explosive in the pres
ence of fire. Also, as soon as the car
bon is inserted the bin should be GOV.
cred tightly, SO that the fumes may
penetrate every portion of the stored
grain rather than escape into the open
air.

obstacles to the perfect drainage Of

mat great benefit would be derived
from putting in tile where it is now

Ihe most common depth at which tile
is laid is from three TO four feet. We
V three good tile factories in this
county, so that farmers have been
mostly able to get and haul the tile
right from the mills to the farms.
The question of drainage is no longer

lands are u best lands and surest for

Plant Oats Early.

About one-third of all our grain
crop in this locality consists of
oats. We are not being troubled
yet with the presence of rust TO
any considerable extent, and | do
not know if farmers are taking any
precautions against rust. We find it
necessary, if we want a good oat crop,
TO get on the ground as soon as pos
sible in the spring, as soon as the
ground will work fairly well. We gen
orally find that about all the corn
needs is to be disced and narrowed
twice. The oat udw IS partly FED
and partly used for bedding. The
greatest obstacle here to the produc'
ton of large crops Of oats seems to
be poor soil, and | do not believe that
we will ever obtain very large crops
until we improve the soil by fertile
