the living all important question with the intelligent farmer different soils have very different wants varying with their original character anil with the kind of exhaustion to which thev have been sub jected it should be the aim of the far mer to supply exactly what is needed and nothing else it is only iu this way that the highest profits are made if for ex ample the fanner puts phosphoric acid ammonia and potash in one uf the socall ed complete manures ul the cost of 40.00 per ion upon his soil wlu-n really only phosphoric acid is needed for his crop upon that soil and this can he had at 10.00 per ton for his immediate purpo ses a hast , he i throwing away io.uti it is true that very often our worn lauds need nil ihesu elements of plant-lood and tin complete manure very generally does well therefore kit il is not by any means always true thai it is the thing which it will pay tlie farmer best to use i very much doubt lot example whether in the majority of cases he gets any sufficient return for the 2 to 1 per cent of ammon ia in the nitrogenous matter to render it worth the live to ten dollars additional which he has to pay for it the farmer ask then how shall i find exactly what it will pay me best to apply to my soil for a particular crop the laboratory method which has been pro posed gives a very uncertain reply the comparison of the analysis of the soil and the plant teaches us little definitely the analysis ofthe soil can of necessity rep resent only t few ounces of soil at most thousands of tons of soil are within reach of the crop what probability is there that the few ounces will accurately rep resent the thousands of tons ? there are many other reasons why this method is very unreliable the practical test with the crop open the soil is worth more than all the analy ses of soils the chemist can make the answer nature makes to the questions put directly to her in field experiments are far clearer and more reliable than the theories of the chemist such experi ments every farmer should conduct for himself these results would be his sur est guides iu fertilising his land 1 present here a simple scheme for some such experiments having reference to the elements of plant food most often needed upon an inexpensive scale the question to which the experimenter seeks the answer is will it pay me best to use phosphoric acid ammonia or potash upon my soil with this crop will the return be best with any one of these alone any combination of two of them or with all three together ? au acre of partially exhausted soil is selected ol as uniform character and as level as possible it is accurately divid ed into ten parallel strips ihe different substances are applied as illustrated by the diagram three lots being left with no manure to

the appearances of the crop ou the different plots and the produce in eacli is measured separately corn and cotton will be found convenient crops to experiment with though a large va j riety of field or garden crops adapt them ! selves to such experiments if the experiments have been carefully conducted the farmer will see clearly from : the results which element or elements of i plant-food were needed for this crop of i course many more factors come into the problem in practice and must be coiisid ' ered iu drawing the final conclusions ' rut the system of experiments present j here in

indian squaw arrived at a swampy spot with a wagon they went to work and stuck up a rude shanty a man shot a woodchuck and the squaw skinned aud cooked it they ate the woodchuck then they all crawled into the shanty and went to sleep these proceedings ridiculous as it may seem are to be celebrated in great style with much braying of trumpets and beating ot drums much gunpowder is tn be fired and

his family mas-sacred the senator from that state promptly said that they didn't believe a word of it and asked for the name of the martyr but dawes re plied that it was impertinent to ask him such 11 question and he would not give the name or the place where the alleged outrage had been committad and uow the humane papers of new england are anxious about the matter aud are calling for the name of

democratic leadership about all the respectability ofthe slate against the rabble that will follow mahone for public plunder mr goode predicts that the democrats will carry the state by an overwhelming majority in the fall election another well known virgin ian from richmond reports the feeling there over the coalition to be quite as intense as mr goode found it elsewhere he says that the democrats have nothing to fear from a union of the republicans and readjnsters in richmond for such a union was igno minionsly beaten in november last air goode is now engaged in soliciting

forthcoming book col lates the opinions and utterances of north ern men in 1:*'i to the effect that there should be no effort made tocoerce the south among them is the following the new york tribune the leading organ of the par ty which triumphed in the election of lt-go had said soon after the result of that elec tion was ascertained with reference to se cev-ion ; we hold with jefferson to the inalienable rights of communities to alter or abolish forms of government that have be come oppressive or injurious and if tlie cotton states shall decide that ihey can do better out of the l'nion than in it we in sist oil letting them go in peace the right to secede may he a revolutionary right but it exists nevertheless and we do not see how one party can have a right to do what another party has a right to prevent we must ever resist the asserted right of any stale to remain in the l'nion ami nullify or defy the laws thereof to withdraw from the union is quite another matter and whenever a considerable section of our i'nioii sha 1 deliberately resolve to go out we shall resist all coercive measures de signed to keep her in we hope never to live in a republic whereof one section is pinned to the residue by bayonets the new york tribune of tuesday quotes down to this ami then stops that paper reminds us of the little boy who had gotten down in the barrel to the sugar that didn't taste good — news and obescrcer jeremiah s black who knows more law and polities than most men directs public attention through a newspaper interview to the novel fact that president garfield can go into the senate and make speeches if he chooses it seems that number 65 ofthe standing rules of the senate adopted no one knows how long ago provides for a confer ence between the president ami the senate and even stipulates that he shall have a seat on the right of the chair the veil of secrecy which surrounded the meetings of the first congresses leaves it uncertain how generally this rule was practiced by the presidents but judge black aver thai they practiced it upon occasion later the rule became practically abrogated by the adop tion of writing as a means of communication between the white house and the capitol and thus through three-quarters of a centu ry of disuctude has become utterly lost to sight but it is still on the list of rules and the ex-attorney general thinks oar i'ii-id might do well to revive it and use his gift of eloquence to stop the present dis graeefu dead-lock and o't the senate down to business in the interest of pure fun — as a syracuse student would say — we hope the president may think favorably of this pro position and embody it in practice a little discussion on the floor ofthe semite as to the exact terms of the mentor deal between

from new york says : dr philip schaff oueof the american reviewers ofthe new testament told me to-day that the books will be for sale on the 30th of may all the stories about a stock of books now on hand in new york under lock and key are false the testament will contain a supplement of a dozen pages giving the suggestions of the american committee which are not accepted by tlie english re visers the majority ofthe american sug gestions were however accepted it will surprise many persons to learn that al though almo-j-t every verse in the new tes tament has been altered it will sound very much like the old book many alterations concern the punctuation simply or unim portant words six new york pnblishi rs are now preparing to reprint the testament as revised within twenty-four hours of its appearance upon the market which will be simultaneous in england scotland ireland australia and the united states the mar gin of profit is small however as the edi tion will be sold at retail i r 25 cents for paper covered copies and 40 cents for those bound in cloth i forgot to say that the american suggestions rejected by the en glish revisers relate chiefly to archaic ex pressions which the

the living all important question with the intelligent farmer different soils have very different wants varying with their original character anil with the kind of exhaustion to which thev have been sub jected it should be the aim of the far mer to supply exactly what is needed and nothing else it is only iu this way that the highest profits are made if for ex ample the fanner puts phosphoric acid ammonia and potash in one uf the socall ed complete manures ul the cost of 40.00 per ion upon his soil wlu-n really only phosphoric acid is needed for his crop upon that soil and this can he had at 10.00 per ton for his immediate purpo ses a hast , he i throwing away io.uti it is true that very often our worn lauds need nil ihesu elements of plant-lood and tin complete manure very generally does well therefore kit il is not by any means always true thai it is the thing which it will pay tlie farmer best to use i very much doubt lot example whether in the majority of cases he gets any sufficient return for the 2 to 1 per cent of ammon ia in the nitrogenous matter to render it worth the live to ten dollars additional which he has to pay for it the farmer ask then how shall i find exactly what it will pay me best to apply to my soil for a particular crop the laboratory method which has been pro posed gives a very uncertain reply the comparison of the analysis of the soil and the plant teaches us little definitely the analysis ofthe soil can of necessity rep resent only t few ounces of soil at most thousands of tons of soil are within reach of the crop what probability is there that the few ounces will accurately rep resent the thousands of tons ? there are many other reasons why this method is very unreliable the practical test with the crop open the soil is worth more than all the analy ses of soils the chemist can make the answer nature makes to the questions put directly to her in field experiments are far clearer and more reliable than the theories of the chemist such experi ments every farmer should conduct for himself these results would be his sur est guides iu fertilising his land 1 present here a simple scheme for some such experiments having reference to the elements of plant food most often needed upon an inexpensive scale the question to which the experimenter seeks the answer is will it pay me best to use phosphoric acid ammonia or potash upon my soil with this crop will the return be best with any one of these alone any combination of two of them or with all three together ? au acre of partially exhausted soil is selected ol as uniform character and as level as possible it is accurately divid ed into ten parallel strips ihe different substances are applied as illustrated by the diagram three lots being left with no manure to

or garden crops adapt them ! selves to such experiments if the experiments have been carefully conducted the farmer will see clearly from : the results which element or elements of i plant-food were needed for this crop of i course many more factors come into the problem in practice and must be coiisid ' ered iu drawing the final conclusions ' rut the system of experiments present j here in

the leading organ of the par ty which triumphed in the election of lt-go had said soon after the result of that elec tion was ascertained with reference to se cev-ion ; we hold with jefferson to the

senate and even stipulates that he shall have a seat on the right of the chair the veil of secrecy which surrounded the meetings of the first congresses leaves it uncertain how generally this rule was practiced by the presidents but judge black aver thai they practiced it upon occasion later the rule became practically abrogated by the adop tion of writing as a means of communication between the white house and the capitol and thus through three-quarters of a centu ry of disuctude has become utterly lost to sight but it is still on the list of rules and the ex-attorney general thinks oar
