Chemistry him tnken an In ventory of tho soils and analyzed tho plants that draw finstonnnco from them, and shows what is needful to bo provided to sus tain the growth of tho plant. Geology, too, hos a natural connection with agri culture, and Invests the formntlon of rock and soil with a new Interest. It shows how chemical changes have pre pared a hcrltago for man, and how by tho slow evolution of tlmo tho barren rocks hftvo becomo nsBlmllatcd and suit ed for hlaj purpose. There Is a sumowh.it general lmprcB felon that the farmor does not require as high an order of education ns do othor classes, of workers. This Is a great mistake. Farming Is a high Intellec tual pursuit, and thoso devoted to It have need of a wider Bcopo of knowl edge than any other class of men. Thcro arc enough In Ub operations to engage the abilities of tho most compre hensive minds; and It haH failed to bo tho leading occupation In all respects, only because tho Intellectual forco of mankind has not sufllclontly sought It as a field for Its offorts. Now, howovor, when jt is seen that it Is connected with tho most Interesting subjects of human research, that tho uobtcst of tho sclcneek lllustrato ito processes, that It gives scope tor enlightened Intellects and disciplined minds and demands scientific skill, wo shall sco agriculture inspired with montnl power until it takes, the position of tho most respect ed, h$ it 1b tho most important, of hu man pursuits. Wo need to purge tho minds of our youths of tho prejudlco that rankB agrlcuiturp as something less honorablo than other callings or professions. Lot them bo brought to feel thejiiherent dignity of tholr occu pation, dad ronllzo that by tho vigor of constitution It promotes, and tho per sonal Independence Jt Eocures, farming Is tho most dcslrablo of pursuits.- Joshua Legg. Moisture and FrostB In a recent lecturo Willis L. Moore, tho new chief of tho government weather bureau, spoke on tho Importance of 'studying tho soil as well as tho nlr in forecast ing frosts. Tho introduction of this fcaturo added greatly to tho cmclency of tho predictions of tho Wisconsin bu reau when ho was in chargo of that. This stato Is noted for its cranberry beds, to which great damago Is caused by early frosts. Often thero woro do otructivo frosts when tho town torn - pornturo did not go below 42 degrees. The froat Uepouds, of courso, upon tho lowering of tho tempcrnturo of tho soil. If it Is dry and porous It gives out its heat readily; if it is wot it has much of water stability of temperature. A halt Inch of rain ovonly distributed Is -enough to counteract many early froat nips. Ex. Fifteen-Cent Corn. "Corn at 1G cents a bushel Is splendid property and tho man Who husbands tho same and stays with It long enough Is suro to coma out with a handsome profit on tho right side of his ledger account," is tho verdict of Chicago markets. Ami II. II. Fitch In Sac Sun says tho words aro fitly spoken. Thero has never been a tlmo within tho recollection of tho oldeBt settler when corn bought and properly cribbed nt 15 cents a bushel would not pay a good profit on tho investment within a year and a half, usually within a year. Thero ought to bo cribbed in Sac City this fall and winter fifty thousand bushels, yes a hundred and fifty thousand. Here Is a fine chance to make money bettor than buying cattle. Buy 15 cent corn and according to nil past experience, you will prospor and mako money. Ex. Keeping Beets in Winter. Beets are very tender and easily injurod by freez ing. Thoy nro thereforo most common ly put in tho cellar, as that can bo watched moro closely than pits nud there Is less danger of frost entering beforo tho owner Is aware. Yet as a master of fuct beets aro hotter kept in pits than in cellars. If put in the col-i lar at all some earth Bhould bo thrown over them to keep them from wilting. Capo should also bo taken not to have tho cellar too warm or tho roots will sprout ,and thus injuro their quality. Mangel wurtzels nro bettor keepers than bSets. Thoy ripen later and will not sprout so early when put in a cel lar. In feeding the beets should bo given out first and the mangels re served until later in the season. Ex. Pasturing Winter Wheat. Tho sub let of pasturing winter wheat has re ceived some attention at tho Kansas Experiment Station. The conclusion is arrived at that pasturing is always an Injurjr to the wheat. The extent of the injury will vary with tho character and condition of tho boII. A comparison of plats pastured with those not pastured amounted to ono and one-half bushels .per acre. The theory that pasturing wheat fields Infested by tho Hessian lly is a benefit is thoroughly exploded. The pupa of the fly Is entirely out of reach of the cattle, being lodged between the sheath3 nt the base of the young stems below the surface of the ground. Pas turing such fields can only weaken the plants and leave them at tho mercy of the fly. Ex. Grafting tbe Orape. Tho grafting of new and Improved varieties of grapes upon old tlulfty stocks is h work that 's pleas ant and satisfactory in results, writes S. W. Chambers in Amer ican Cultivator. It la a good plan to linvo a number of old stocks al ways on hand for tho testing of now varieties that nro ndvortlsed as being worthy of goneral attention. Ono can get quick results from this mothod, and soon decido whether ho wants to pay any further attention to tho now kinds. It tho scions of the now varlotlcs aro In good condition fruits can bo had In ono sonson whon grnftcd on vigorous stocks. Ono can Judge pretty well from this first season's growth whether tho grapes nro dcslrablo, but by tho second season a full crop will bo produced, and thero will bo no longer room for any doubt. Grafting grapes is valuablo in doing away with tho old, worthless kinds. Tho destruction of vlnoyards at ono tlmo bocauso the art of grafting was not understood would bo a crlmo In theso days. No matter how worthless the stocks may bo in tho quality of fruits they produco thoy aro invaluable to tho vincyardtst who understands his work. Ho can graft new varieties on them and In two seasons renp n flno crop of doll clous fruit. It Is oven proposed to graft tho Improved varieties upon tho wild grnpo vines that flourish In our swamps. Something Uko this was dono recently on Long Island. A small swamp was so overgrown with wild grapo vines that tho trees and bushes woro nearly crowded out of exist ence An enterprising vlnoynrdlst bought tho swamp, cleared out a cood deal of tho brush, fenced It in, and then proceeded to graft now varieties of grapes on tho old vines. In a fow years ho was reaping tho benefits of his genius in largo crops of salablo grapes. Many of our modern varlotlcs of grapes vill not grow rapidly from cut tings, nnd it is Uko waiting for eter nity to como to watch for them to pro duco a paying crop. Tho easiest way to do Is to graft them Upon robust stock and thoy will invnrlably produco largo crops in n Bhort time. Tho vigor of tho .stock will force them into rapid growth that they never show when planted as cuttings. ' Moreover, grafted grapes invariably Incroaso tholr frultfulness, especially if good stock Is selected, and tho work of grafting is properly done. It is this last advantage that makes many vlno yardlsts adopt this mothod of propaga tion with all of their grapeB. The stocks If properly handled nnd pruned can bo mndo to Incrcaso In slzo and vigor with out losing their vigor and vitality. Tho stocks will soon Bhow signs of decay, and it will becomo necessary to start now plants from tholr roots or cuttings. A great deal of Ignornnce in handling grnpo stocks Is displayed, ovon by those who protend to bo practical vlnoynrd- lfitS. Mnny of our grapo vino diseases arc completely eradicated from n flold by cutting back the stocks somewhnt and thou grafting now varieties on them that appear to bo proof against tho attacks of tho disease. By this method tho California vlno yardists havo succeeded In stump ing out tho phylloxera, A resist ant vino can be turned into a non resistant vine, or vico versa, according to tho mothod of grafting tho scion. In this way grafting is tho grower's surest weapon. First Seed Distribution. Tho pres ent system of distributing seeds nt the oxpenso of tho government originated In 183C, with Henry L. Ellsworth, a Con necticut man, who then hold tho ofllco on which Connecticut has a sort of Hen ns being tho most inventive state In tho union, that of commissioner of patents. Ho began such n distribution among tho farmers of tho country at his own expense, and in 1839, upon his rec ommendation, congress authorized $1,000 a year to bo appropriated to this purposo from tho receipts of tho pat ent ofllco. It was also to be used In part for procuring agricultural statis tics, qnd out of this small beginning has gradually grown up tho dopartmont of agrlculturo, represented now by ono ot the members of tho cabinet. New Hav en Nows. Storing Cabbage. Dig a trench deep enough so that whon a cabbago is placed In it with tho head down tho root of the cabbago will come only a lltt'.o abovo tho level of tho soil, and as -wide as desired. Cover tho bottom Of tho trench with straw or hay to pre vent tho cabbago heads coming in con tact with the ground, to which they would freeze If In contact. Place cab bago In trench head down, Just as pulled. Do not trim tho heads in any 'way. Pull It out of tho ground with as little breaklug and bruising of leaves as possiblo and put It In the trench at once. Storo only sound, good heads, and put them In whon dry free from moisturo of melted snow or frost and rain. Cultivator. Latltudo and Climate Latitude does not regulate climate. Fruit growers are well awaro of this fact, and have had it brought to their attention In divers manners and at divers times. It has frequently been forced upon them at a high price. Parts of Now England are on a parallel with tho Mediterranean, a sunny sea. Even on our own continent the Isothermal lines aro very crooked, frequently bending suddonly to the north and making a curve of several degrees. Branding Cattlo -uo habit of branding cattlo Is equal to n dockage of 15c to $1 per head in the decreased price of tho hides. The habit of burn ing into these valuablo Integuments letters ot the alphabet, complicated monograms, rude imitations ot objects In nature and art, maps and hiero glyphics is neither ornamental nor economical. They are, perhaps, pic turesque, but nothing more. Texas I Farm and Ranch. CURIOSITIES OF PRINTING. China V loubtlei lh lUrlhpInce of I lie? Art J'rerrnlTe. ' China, tho "cradle of tho urts," claims (ho honor ot tho Invention ot printing. Awny back In tho year G93, nearly 1,000 years beforo Gutenberg issued tho first volume of his famous bible, tho Chi nese woro using tho "block system' ot printing, nnd In tho toiith century, 400 years beforo Europe had becomo ac quainted with tho "art preservative," tho almond-eyed Colcstlal typos wore hotter versed in tho science of setting movoblo typos than woro tho American printers of tho days of Benjamin Frank lin, Tho "block system" of printing, which was co well known in tho fiowory kingdom less than six conturles nftcr tho birth of Christ, did not find its way to Europe until abonc tho first of tho fifteenth century, whon "devotional manuals," oach bearing ft portrait and a few lines In printing, beenmo popular. These cutn and printed lines were taken from engravings mndo on a slnglo block, tho very earliest dated specimen of thnt character mndo In Europe hear ing date of 1423, Thero Is still n ques tion as to who was tho first European prlntor to uso tho movable types. It Is not a question as to what European invented movable typos, for it Is known thnt tho honor belongs to tho far cast, Tho honor of being tho first to adopt tho system appears to rest between Lauronz Coster of Haarlem (died 1140) John Faust and John Gutenberg. In tho nbovo list come Includo the namo ot Peter Schoffor, a son-in-law of Faust, Dutch authorities claim that Coster W03 tho first to uso movable typos, and that Gutenberg, ' who was at one time a workman in Coster's Bhop ntolo tho Idea from him. Tho Germans glvo Gu tonborg tho honor nnd cot tho date of his first successful practice ot tho art at 143C. Tho first entire European book over printed from movablo types boars tho namo of Johnnn Fuuet on its title pngo. It bore tho namo ot "Tractatu3 Potrl Hlspanl" and was printed at Mentz In 1442. As Gutenberg did not put hlB namo on all of his books, or tho dato whon thoy were iBsuod, thero is somo doubt when tho first appeared or how many wero issued. Gutenberg's groat work waB his Latin bible, which nppepnrod In 145G, and which Is often catalogued no tho "Ilr3t book ever printed on movablo types." THE FORTUNETELLER KNEW. Didn't Need Koconil Kl;lit lo l'orcftee Wluit Vt'an GoIiik to Hitprirn. "I suppose ovcrybody has vlaltcd a fortune-teller at least onco In his life," remarked n drummer to a New York World reportor, "but I'm willing to bet that few mon havo over hnd such an oxpcrlenco as I ran up against tho other day. I was walking through a side Btrcot uptown when I chanced to nee a clnlrvoyant's Blgn In tho window. As It had Just begun to rain and tlmo wn3 hanging rather heavily on my hands, ; I thought: It was an excellent opportun ity to satiofy a curiosity I had often folt. My ring was answered by a frow-By-haired girl, "who ushered mo Into a rather shabbily furnished room. "I was Jolnod by an elderly woman ot motherly aspect There w?s nothing of tho proverbial fortune-toller about her, and I was more than astonished whon sho introduced herself ns a colobratcd clairvoyant. But hor gontlo amUo and old-fashioned manner soon put mo at my ease, and I felt almost ns much at homo as if I had beon in my own house. Her motherly oyo detected that my overcoat was rather wot," and sho in sisted that I take It off and let her hang it by tho flro In tho other room. "I felt so comfortable that it was with real regret I saw her at last tormlnato tho Interviow by going Into tho other room for my cont. Sho was a very en tertaining talker, and told mo tho came Btercotypcd things that fortune-tellers havo boon telling ever since tho begin ning, tho majority of which aro suro to happen to every man and woman who ever lived. As for tho particular things oho told me, only ono, so far, ! has turned out true. Sho Enid I would lose a largo sum of money. I nover thought anything moro about tho affair until tho next day, wnen I felt for my bank roll nnd found that the wallot had been taken out ot the Inside pocket of my overcoat" Ilettcr ClieniUt Tlmn Statesman. The now French mlnlstqr of foreign affairs M. Bortholot Is an olderly pro fessor of C8 with virtually no experi ence in tho conduct of public office. But in his special domain ot chemical knowledgo ho ranks among tho first of his contemporaries. Chemical syn thesis tho science of artificially put ting organized bodies together may be said to owe its existence to him. Tho practical results expected -to flow from his experiments and discoveries aro enormous. Thus, sugar has recently been made in the laboratory from glycerin, which Professor Bartholot first made from synthetic alcohol. Com merce has now taken up the quostion, and an invention has recently been patented by which sugar Is to bo modo up. on a commercial scale from two gases nt something Uko 1 cent por pound. But theso scientific wonders do not stop here. Tobacco, tea and coffee aro to be made artificially. Theobromine, tho es sential principle of cocoa, has been pro duced In the laboratory. Thus, syn thetic chemistry Is getting ready to furnish the thrco great nonalcoholic beverages In goneral use. Tobacco will bo obtainod in a similar fashion.

Jolin Sherman' Uook In Oooil Cnmptilcu Literature for the Democrat Tho J'our Men Who Jtun tho Itormbltcau ' Vnrtr. It is not difilcult to rqad between the lines of Senator Sherman's famous book nnd of his recent Interviews tho buoy ant roliof of a man who finds hlmsolf nt Inst freed of the restraints which po litical nmhltlon has for almost half a century laid heavily upon his tongue and pan. Ho fiaunta defiance In tho fnco ot tho republican bosses to whom for years ho has truckled and by whom ho has on countless occasions been betrayed. Eagerness to secure dele gates no Jonger Imposes discreet silence upon him. Ho mauls Tom Piatt with n club, cuffs Alger ns ono would discipline a gamin too Bmall for serious attention and pricks tho hubblo of Garfield's reputation with n rapier. But it is all dono without bit terness and purely In tho interest of historic truth. ThlB tho people know, bocauso the senator gravely so assures them In reiterated Interviews. But for this nssuranco hasty observers might think tho veteran politician actually found a certain pleasure in thus run ning amuck amid his contemporaries' reputations. Tho publishers who so shrewdly lurod Senator Sherman Into tho pleas ant paths of literature should not fall to add to his volume a compcdlum of his recent oxplanatory and commonta livo Interviews. Like divers classics brought down to date by erudlto schol ars, Its original form might thus bo ex ceeded, both in bulk nnd In value, by tlfc appended notes. Every tlmo tho senator visits a city whore reporters aro alert and knowing ho .adds some now counts to his already very com plete indictment of his co-workers In republicanism. Thus in Now York last week ho called attention to tho widespread unpopularity of Bonjamln Hnrrlson. In so doing he was not ani mated by any resentment because Har rison, in 1S88, bought tho Now York delegation, which Sherman thought ho had himself bid in. Not at all. It Is merely as a contribution to history that the sonator called attention to the facto that General Harrison's coolness of de meanor makes him unpopular with tho peoplo; that ho carried Ohio by only 1,000 votes and then lOBt ono elector; that in his latest candidacy he lost his own state and that really he never had much experience of public llfo anyway beyond tho inestimable advantage of having sat next to Senator Sherman In tho United States senate for one term. Nor, of courso, is it bocauso Garfield went to the Chicago convention of 1880 in charge of tho Sherman boom and came bock with tho presidential nomi nation in IiIb own inside pocket that tho senator characterizes him ns a man without strong will power, a puppet in tho handa of abler politicians, without moral steadfastness nnd lacking In depth of conviction. Such little com ment., an theso upon the lieutenant who betrayed him tho senator assures us arc "without mallcs nnd mcrnly Intro duced eh a matter of history." Besides, both In his book and in his Interviews, with noblo magnanimity, ho declares that Garfield possessed "a handsomo faco and an imposing appearance." What more could bo asked? It is to bo hoped that the prcsont communicative not to say loquacious, mood ot tho re publican senator from Ohio will bo long enduring. He is contributing moro of worth to history than perhaps ho him self comprehends. Thus far ho has written down Garfield nn overrated dandy of weak will and mediocre in telligence; Harrison a hypocrite, who bought ofllco with promises of patron age, and ascribed his success to tho Diety; Piatt an ofllce broker ablo to trado tho Now York delegation, con taining two republican ex-senators and tho humorous Mr, Dopew, for a hand ful of fat Jobs; Alger, a vulgar corrup tlonlst, who sought to buy the presi dency with the profits of protected lum ber mills. As a little addendum to tho last proposition comes a letter from General W. T. Sherman condoning Al ger's traffic in delegates and plainly in dicating that Brother John had not been guiltless of speculating in tho sa mo market. Tho character of Sen ntor Sherman's revelations leaves no doubt that ho betloves himself at the end of his political caroer. It may well bo doubted whether in hid long period of public corvlco ho ever did a more Eorviccable thing than thus making his swan song a threnody for the lack of political honor among republicans. Exchange, N Piatt nml Quay Organize tho Ilnnsp. Tho bosses havo entered into control. Thomas C. Piatt, of Now York, and Matthew S. Quay, of Pennsylvania, are tho bosses. They have given tholr or ders for the organization of tho lower house of congross, and tboir plans will bo carried Into effect. Tho officers of the house to be chosen after tho speaker will bo Alexander McDowell, of Pennsylvania, Quay's man, tor chief clerk: Bonjamln Russell, of Missouri, a machine favorite, for sor-gernnt-at-arms; William J. Glenn, of Now York, Platt'a man, for doorkeeper, and J. C. McEloroy, of Ohio (probably Forakor'B .man), for postmaster. Ex Congressvnnn T. J. Henderson of Illi nois, wb was a candidate for chief clerk and wan confldont of his election a few days ago. Is left out in tho cold. It is reported that a striking featuro ot this arrangement Is that it received tho support ot the Ohio and Indiana Republican members ot congress. The support of the Ohio members was gained by tho selection of an Ohio man for postmaster, and ono ot the minor offices is given to an Indiana man. But tho entire slate was prepared by Piatt nnd Quay, who aro opposed by both 34c- Klnloy and Harrison. They under. TfiffiSdMbKlnley in Ohio antl"Hnrrl6on In Indiana by creating soparatc "boss" Interests in each stato. which will ex ercise great Influence In tho Republican national convention noxt yonr. But whoro has John R. Tannor beon all this time? Ho roturnod from the East a few weeks ago, heralded by a newspaper flourish to tho effect that ho had beon In conference with tho Eastern group of "bosses" nild had made definite ar rangements for his own admission to tlio leaguo with the assurance that ho and his friends would havo a full sharo of the spoils after the presidential election. It was a remarkablo over sight that Mr. Tanner did not bargain for a share of tho spoils to bo distrib uted now. Ex-Contrrenamnn Wnnilnr. con wns a candidate for chief clerk ot the house. Piatt and Quay, with whom Tanner claimed to have formed a league of amity and co-operation, had no use for his counsel when they par celed out the offices of tho house that will meet noxt Monday, Why was not the alleged Illinois "boss" there? Oh, where was Tanner then? Ono blast upon his bugle horn were worth a thousand men or at least would hava been worth congressional votes enough to havo helped Hendeison In tho rnce for tho chief clerkship. This is the first result ot Tanner's appearances ns ono of tho national league of bosses. He might as well not havo appeared. Chicago Chronicle. Truth In tho I'nlplt. Rev. J. B. Sllcox of the Leavitt Street Congregational church preached u Thanksgiving sermon in which thero was no idolatry of tho golden calf. Tho reverend gentleman sees things no they are and plainly points out tho enor mities perpetuated by incorporated greed. "In many cases," said tho reverend gentleman, "this aggregation of power Is used selfishly, cruelly and In utter dcllanco of right and Justice. The corporations that have disgraced tho city and themselves by stealing tho water of tho 'city and stealing tho streets of tho city, robbing tho peoplo of their highways and doing it on Sun day are the enemies of God and the peo plo and should be relegated to the striped squads at JblIeTr"Uroadcloth should not exempt scoundrels from tho punishment due to great transgres sions," Tho reverend gentleman found that danger to tho public lay not alone In tho conscienceless politician. He saw tho "damnable dangerousness to the re public of thoso huge, consciencoleos corporations that brutally override law and Justice, ignoring aliko the laws of God and tho rights, of tho peoplo In order to compass their anaconda schemes of wealth getting." He added with force a truth: "These enormous combinations of wealth against tho commonwealth, theso pirates on tho high seas of our industrial life, these parasites on the body politic, aro the subtlest and shrewdest foe3 of tho re public, the real anarchlsto and makers of anarchy." It is seldom .that tho pul pit speaks with such freedom and cour age. Tho reverend gentleman might have gone further in hlo animadver sions. His noble wrath might have been directed properly against a tri bunal two-thirdB of which insisted in upholding tho bribing Bcoundrels who had stolon Wabnsh avenue for tho loop and In forbidding tho right of any citi zen of Chicago to Inquire into their transactions. Such scoundrels have everything elso in the community. Thoy own any part of Chicago they desire to purchase from this republican ad ministration. They perpetrate what in justice nnd trespass thoy choose. The appellate court decision goes far toward shaking any faith of tho community whatever In the ability of a court to protect tho rights of tho people. That court was so graceless aa to forbid tho early presentation of tho whole subject-matter to tho court of final rcEort in Illinois. It held tho matter off so that the Supremo court will not ba able to net upon it until after tho trespass by bribing scoundrels is complete Chicago Chronicle. It Un't So. An alleged practical financier in quoted as saying: "It is a fact that $100,000,000 in gold haa been taken to Europe annually for tho past Ave years by American tourists, and tho cold re ality remains that today there Is not enough gold loft in this country to re deem tho present circulating notes." According to this statement we cannot have much more than $150,000,000 of gold left In tho country at the present time all told, oven upon tho assump tion that tourists did not begin to car ry gold abroad until fivo years ago. But tourists havo been going abroad in great numbers for many years. If thoy have carrlod away $100,000,000 a year during tho last flvo years they must have carried away at least 50.000,000 a year for tho preceding ten years. If they had in fact done this we would havo been stripped of tho last ounco of gold long ago, and we would now be owing some hundreds ot millions of gold borrowed abroad by tourists. The confident Btatomonts wo so often hear about gold taken out by tourists will not bear analysis nt all. Always MronE In AilversUr. Baltimoro Sun: He is a poor dem ocrat, indeed, hardly worth the uame, who losea all heart and faith and cour ago bocauso his party has mot with de feat at tho polls. Not ot such stuff haa tho "unterriflod democracy" been made from tho days of Jefferson, Jackson. Tilden, down to our own. The whole history ot tho democratic party, not only at large, but In every state of the union, has been that of courageous and persistent efforts often under tho most discouraging circumstances and In spite of defeat, against tho most powerful political Influences that could be ex ertedby allied wealth, corporate pow er, official patronage and sectional prejudice. j Dnrant n PlncIarUt.
