Anybody, that wants TO, can furnish

Governor Its hands have made hir

ture was IT'S Legislature. The Suns
big stick and browbeat:ng methods
brought that Legislature to eat out OF
its hand and to gee haw' as ii com
manded. We have no government
by the people in this State We
have government by the Baltimore
Sun. Its editorial and rcportorial staff
have been abundantly supplied with
official positions under the State Ad-
ministration, and whatever happens to

the situation as It cXists-not as we
would like to see it exist. For it is
hard to understand how any man, with

OF moral sense, can iecl anything but
contempt for the Sun, when once he
has iamiiarizcd himself with its inner
history in recent years. But dcspise it

" He Crothcrs Road Law puts the
control of the roads OF this
- county in the hands OF an en-
gineer and Crothers appoints the en-
gineer-in fact has already appointed
him in the person Of Mr.. Irwin, OF
Carroll county. Naturally there is
some considerable speculation as to
the meaning OF all this. The Caroline
county law, on which the Crothers bill
was modelled, provided for the appoint
ment OF the engineer by the County
Commissioners Indeed the Crothers
bill itself so provided as appears by
the printed copy in our possession.
But when the shuflling was all over
at the close oi the Legislature, the
Governor had somehow taken the APP
pointment to himself and proceeded
TO make the same forthwith In ex-
tenu2tion OF this move, it is claimed
that our present Board OF County
Commissioners have neither the bust
ness experience nor general intelli-
gence to fit them for making the ap
pointment This, however, seems TO
us an insufficient reason for cnacting a
law that places. the appointment en-
tirely III the Governors hands; be-

THRASHING CUCUMBERS.
Method Of Extracting the Seed by Ma
ehinery.

Method Of Extracting tho Seed by Ma
chinery.
Hundreds Of acres of irrigated land
in western Kansas and eastern Colora-
do are used for the production Of Gu
cumber, cantalOupe and watermelon
seeds. The growing of cucumbers for
seed is said to be very profitable. and
the owners often clear from 500 to
$3.50 per acre. as the seed companies
pay from ST to 50 pound for the
product. The cucumbers are sown in
rows six feet apart both ways. and the
seeds are planted about the LIST of
May. After the plants come through
the ground they are hoed and irri-
gated, the furrow for the water run
ming lengthwise with the rows and
close to the hills. A cultivator is used
until the vines run we'll between the
rows.
The cucumber thrasher is built on a
wagon-like frame. supported by great
wide wheels and drawn by two horses
The machinery Of the thrasher is in
most instances. according to the Gas
Engine Magazine. operated by two
horsepower gas engine. The crusher
looks like common cider mill and has
two rollers. which crush the cucum-
bers as they pass between them. The
cucumbers go from the crusher into Il
large cylindrical seeder. which is set
horizontally The outer surface is Il
wire netting with meshes large enough
to permit the seeds to pass through

Methods of HARDENING Stone.

By new methods soft sandstone or
limestone or even mortar or concrete
is made hard and impermeable to a
depth Of half an inch or so and after
treatment can be polished and cut.
This makes it practicable to use soft.
easily worked stones where the hard
material is needed. as in tanks. pave
ments, etc. In one process the surface
Of the stone is first thoroughly cleaned.
cavities are filed with cement mortar
tempered with water glass solution.
the whole is then saturated with So
luton Of potash or soda water glass
and is finally impregnated with molten
chloride of calcium. The reaction Of
the chloride of calcium on the water
glass fills the pores with hard. insolu-
BILE silicate of lime. Another process
consists in first saturating with sui
phate Of ammonia solution and then
with solution Of potash water glass.
