ing, and official Washington. compare
lively. is deserted.
Every outgoing train bore senators
and representatives homewards after
an extraordinary session that stretched
over 121 days and set the liveliest
pace OF any legislative session in
years.
The session record OF measures in
troduced is 14.03s bills and 4s4 resolu.
tions in the House and 5,296 bills and
IS resolutions in the Senate.
Only 4 few of these were passed.
The Senate adjourned without filling
the office Of President pro tempore.
The adjournment was fcatureless,
despite the strenuous activity that hal
gone before.
The President vetoed the cotton tar
iff revision bill. just as he had vetoed
its predecessors, the wool and the free
list bills. The veto went only to the
House, in accordance with custom,
and there its reception was marked by
Democratic laughter and Republican
applause.
Democratic Leader Underwood. amid
a demonstration, formally thanked the
few Republican members who voted
with the Democrats to pass the tariff
revision bulls. Democrats ran across
the aisles to shake hands with Re-
publican insurgents, The cheering and
pounding OF desks on the Democratic
side were protracted.
As soon as he could be heard Mr.
Underwood announced that as the
Democrats did not have the two-thirds
majority necessary to pass the bill
over the veto, he would merely move
the printing of the veto and accom-
panying papers and their reference TO
the ways and means committee, Of
which he was the chairman. The
House agreed 10 this fixed course,
With the committee the matter will
rest until the whole subject OF tariff
revision is revived at the regular ses-
sion OF Congress in December
Every body was in 4 happy mood in
both Houses, but the usual vaudeville
proceedings that feature the few min
utes following an adjournment of the
House Were missing. The nearest ap-
proaeh was the singing of Aud Lang
Syne" by group Of younger mem
bers. But their chords did not inspire
a common chorus. The galleries in
both the House and the Senate were
crowded
President Taft spent half an hour
at the capitol. making it a social af-
fair as well as business one. Occu-
pying the Presidents room, in the
rear OF the Senate chamber, he was
greeted and eheered by senators of all
shades OF political complexion.

KEEPING FEED
LOT CLEAN
Brick Pavement for Small Bunch
Of Cattle Is Best-TiIe Drain
Laid IN Ordinary Way
Is Reco m m n d cd,
(By C. NJ. CoULToN.) }


There is no good reason why the
feed lot should not be kept in good
condition, even II there is no hill on
the farm. II the land is level and
only small bunch of cattle is to be
fed. good plan is to remove the top
soil with a road scraper to the depth
of six inches or more, and then cover
the surface with smooth stones topped
off with coarse coal cinders mixed
with sand.
or course, the best way to keep n
small feed lot dry is to pave It with
brick. This costs something at the
start. but the investment will pay
every time. The cattle are always op
dry footing and no feed is wasted by
being thrown on the ground.
If large lot of cattle is to be fed
the cost of paving large lot is out
of the question; but 1t can be under
drained with success. Tile drain laid
In the ordinary way. from 10 to 20 feet
apart, will keep any lot that is not
located in swamp in good condition,
even in the rainiest part of the season.
Drainage will cost no more than
sheds, and unless the sheds are very
wide they soon become soaked with
the driving rains and mud Is then
carried into them by the cattle, and
are little better than an open lot.
On our own farm we have two lots
of ten acres EACH which are perfectly
drained. They are on slightly slop-
ing rise, and we place the drains about
20 feet apart. Perhaps 40 feet would
have answered the purpose, but we
decided to take no chances and are
satisfied with out investment These
two lots cost us s40O for tile and
work. besides our own, but we think
1t has paid. because our cattle have
been fattened In comfort.

gerous fumigation with hydrocyanlc

use Of .005 gram Of potassium cyanide

cation to last not over three hours.
Should this not prove effective, the
amount should be raised to O.O07
gram.
Fumigation should be after dark
(preferably when the moon is not
shining. and the foliage of the plants
should be dry). These precautions
are advised simply for the purpose of
reducing to minimum the danger of
injury from the hydrocyanic gas. The
SO per cent. potassium cyanide and
commercial sulphuric acid are the ma
terials to be employed. one-half more
acid, liquid measure, being used than
potassium cyanide, and one-half more
water than acid. Those contemplating
employing this measure are advised

use in snowy weather, when wheeled
conveyances do not make such good
progress, but 1t can be used on the
bare ground If 1t is not too stony.
However, as 1t is only the work of a

and from sled to wheel, it Is not likely
that one will be used where the other
is better suited. The barrow can be

Soils for Various Fruits,

In selecting site for the orchard
1t is perhaps natural to make the mis-
take of choosing soil which is in
reality too rich and fat for the best
production of apples.
On such soil conditions seem to ex-
ist which tend to production of wood
rather than fruit growth, thus defeat
ing the object one has in view. Pears
will produce fruit on rich, moist soils,
while peach trees should be set on the
