FARM AND HOME AFFAIRS.

GETTING HEADY FOR THE SPRING. Ulnfl; Milk from tliw Soli Fertilising Substances In Milk Feeding the Soil IllnUto the Farmer A Uaigtt of Valuable Recipes. That milk takes away from the soil (indirectly through the agency of the crops grown thereon) a large proportion of tho plant food is sa true as of any other product pold from the farm. Milk ia an article that robs the farm of a creator number of substances than anything e'sf, as it Is of itse'.f almost complete in the elements that serve to provide the essentials for iust-dning life. Though largely composed of water, it has been shown that 100 pounds of milk contain from ten to fourteen pounda of solid mutter, which varies ' according to the individual characteri-tics of tho animals and tuo food upon which they are fed. jTevinr.ini: with the aeh of mi!k, which doe? not. include the fat or nitrosenous matter, there is nearly twenty-rive pounds of potash in every 100 pounds of the ash, over twenfy-eiirht pounds ot phosphoric ncid, nearly ten rounds of soda, three pounds of magnesia and twenty-two pounds of linv. These pubstancea are told with the milk, Im in? dissolved in it, and represent the mineral matter. The fourteen pounds cf pJids rr.ay vary in tho amount of mineral matter, but the ash is about seven-tenths of 1 per cent, of the whole milk, and when lare quantities of milk are soid daily there is a heavy Iops ot mineral matter, The proportion of fat in miik varies, but it is usually about 3 per cent, the nitrogenous mutter arjd milk suzar being about 'J per cent. This repretentf another fertidzing substance carried away in the milk nitropen which varies accordin? to the composition and quantity of the so'id, tn fat bein the cheapest portion of the milk, except water, as it is not derived from the soil. It is plain that no farm can lon sustain the drain made on it from the eale of milk unless the farmer either purchases a lartre of the food of his etovk, or resorts to the n5-e of fertilizers to retain the fertility of his soil. It is an impossibility to increase the productive capacity of a dairy farm by proving all the food thereon and depen iIe.: solely upn the manure produced, as fooneror later the milk will reduce th amount of plant food, and deterioration of the farm begins. Tor the same reason a pastare that is not fertilized muft rf-aeto produce pae-. The fjrmer should buy the cheaper pransof the west an 1 convert FUch food into milk, as h'n soii will then inciea- in fertility. The science of farniins is to have the land richer at the rlos of the year than it waa at thy beginning. Hints to the Fnrmer. The liquids of the stable, if allowed to run off. earn away the most valuable portions of the manure. Old canes of blackberries and raspberries Etould be consigned to the flames as a eafeeuard against disease. In selecting vegetables for the use of the family the garden should contain those of the best quality in preference to size or quantity. Sow the dwarf peas for an early supply. For peas of the best qualify for a later crop, trv the Champion of Kngland, which is an old and tried varie'y. Cut straw for bedding saves labor when it is ad !ed to the manure heap, as it decomposes quickly and is easily handled vhen hauling out tne m.mure. This Feabon there is more water in the coil than has been the ca-e for years. Cellars that have always been dry, in tome Bection3 are now partly fii!ed with water. This will probably not be lessened, as We are yet to have the usual spring rain?. A farmer should be a good jud.;e of butter if he wished to avoid sending an inferior article to market. There are farmers who hone.!tly red their butter aud guarantee it as tood, wheu in reality they disippont the.r customers uniutenliontionaf.y. Yourg chicks will become afflicted with lice as roon a hatched. The lice leav the lowlsand ko to the chick. As goon as a hen c.me3 olf with a brood rub a few drops ot incited lard or oil on tlio ekin of the head and neck cf the hen and dust the chicks well wiih Dalmatian iustct powder. Fresh manure is not the kind to use in a garden. It should first b? decomposed. If it i3 not decomposed in the heap it is liable to treats too much hat in ti.e coil if appl e i late in the season. All fretdi rnamira should be spread out early if it h to be app ied w ithout tirst heaping it for decora position. "Enough is as cood as a feast" is nn o'd proverb that we 1 anplies to tiu f.-edinir of rlock. It is a mistake tovtriee d. When an animal is induced to eat more than it can diceet properly there is a loss not only from the extra amou it, but also froia that which wouid havM been more beneficial if given in on'y sufficient amount. Potatoes are really luxuries at present j-rici-e, considering their real nutritive valu-, though they are not considered as valuable m wheat. U deprives th-5 toil of mort plant food to grow a bushe! of wheat than it does to produce a b isiul r.f potatoes, but in some sections the potatoes bri lg a higher price than wheat. If the seed corn was not se ected in the field now is an excellent time to f elect. The seed corn should be kept in a xry Tlace. where extreme coM will not reach it. Before planting the corn it edioul 1 bo eteeped in ago.ut on ma le by dissolving a pound ot sulphate of copper in two gallons of water, in order to destroy the poree of smut. The garden spot should be rich, and it thould b; ppadtd or plowed deep. No implement can t-uptrsede tho rnke in tho garden, especially for tine seeds. Haul om manure for the garden, aui use it libera ly. If this is dene early tho frost will largely assist in breaking the luinim, thus better enabling you to incorporate it wiili th noil. No breed but the IIoMein has ever attempted to compete as au all-purpose animal. In all ihe public testa made w ith the Jerseys cs butter producers the Hoiptiins have been victorious, tnd they Lava competed aucc;Hful ir in the fat nock stiows as heel producers, while they tlio hoM the champion records lor the large -t yields of mill:. Lo not waste the cornstalks nor allow them to be mixed with the manure, unless you are euro they wili be rotted. Handling manure with the fork, to be annoyed by coming in contact with cornrtalks, is dinairreeable work. Cut the talks into eliort pieces, throw them into the etallrf to absorb the liquids, and a Id them to the heap with the cleanings of the e'all. By beginning the pet-son wi'h a vigorous "attack on weeds as soon as they prar there will be a treat saving of work in their eradication later on, as well as redncirg the labor the succeeding year. "Weeds mut not cr.ly be kept down, but must be entirely destnved. Seeding of weeds should never be allowed, and to bo sure of this they 6houd bo killed when they are young. Experiments in growing potatoes lat year demonstrate that farmers cm double "their crops by the use of proj er fertilizers and a eutikieiicy of plant food. (Jood cul

tivation is al.-o necessary, but with the extra expense attending the growth of potatoes in I tie experiments made it is shown that tho l&ri extra yk'M not only we 1 repays for the addiiional expense but greatly odds to the profit and leaves the soil in better condition than before. It is contended that farmers cannot compete with Chicago dressed beef. Jf farmers who keep stock will include as a portion of the profit the food that regains on the farm a.s manure they will find that they can produce beef at a lower cost than the lare beef-drefsing houses can ell it. The true way to produce beef is to use the beef breeds and g t the steers into market at an early ae. Scrub beef cannot compete with dressed beef or anvthing else. The best brings tin high prices and is produced at the least cost. V'alnnble Itnripcs.

And when Le came to tho (M tower, he took them from their hand and b 'stowed them in the house : and he let the men go, and they departed. 2b. Put he went in, and stood before his master. And Llisha said uato him, Whence comest thou, Gehazi? And he said. Thy servaut went no whither. 2ti.

A light punishment would have been unfitting lor uch hins and evils as Gehazi Iihs done. Nothing else would have produced the rght effect upon hi ace, or unon other aea. Neither would any Ies atilictiou hve had sufficient influence upon Gehazi himself. Jt was intended that the Ieproy of the body should drive out the leprosy of the soul. Whether it succeded or not, it was intended for Gehazi's good, as well as' for a warning to others.

Note the Sociality of Sin. Sins go in clusters. They are clannish. One attracts or "begets another. A sin seldom or never lives aicne. Men swear to bide a lie. They lie to aide a theft. They steal because they covet. They drink to denrien their conscience. Gehazi was guilty of lying, cheating, profanity, covetou.nc?s, hypocrisy aud treason. f'raettral SnKgoarons.

IS-'fO, app ropriating money out of the national treasury for ex perimental farming at the various state Agricultural colleges, was parsed- This money will go to Purdue university, rev-ral senate bills were then defeated, the first one being Senator Jackson's bill regulating the gauge of wagon-tire to be used on gravel roads during wet seasons. For a tire of one ard one-half inches a load of no more than l.oOO pounds shall be used. For a two-inch tire from 1,500 to 2.C0O, or an additional cne-half inch for every additional LOO pounds hauled. Mr. Ader pointed out the defects of the bill. It wag loosely drawn. It provided no penalties for violating its provisions, and it did not require the weighing of loads before hauling over gravel roads. He said that gravel roads should be protected, but the bill pomdng would not afford any. The bill was lost yeas, 20; navs, 52. The next bill was also knocked out yeas, ."2; nays, -10. It was by Senator Thompson of Pulaski a bill relating to tha draining of ditches established by conimisbioners appointed by the circuit ceurt. Mr. Koscoe made a vain attempt to f ave the bill. The metropolitan police bill which was passed by the legislature of 1883 made it apply to Indianapolis and Evansvi le. The new charter for Indianapolis takes the board of police commissioners out of the hands of the state board and places it under the mayor. A senate bill by Senator Kerth pa??ed yesterday placing the appointment of the Kvansville police commissioners in the hands of the common council. Mr. Nolan eaid that the peope of Kvansville desired to con-o'idato the fire and poll e boards a'.d to appoint the members of the board al home. The present nonpartisan police system was to be retained. The next eenate bill to go in the wastebasket was Senator Moore's gravel road bill. The committee on roads had recommended its passa.-e, said Chairman Bowman, who thought the bill a go;d one. It provided for the care of gravel roads, m iking the county coinmietuonepr exolficio irravel road supervisors. Mr. Glessner siid that the houee had lecently passed a bill to make the road supervisor overseer of gravel roads. The Moore bill would repeal that b:".l and it should not pass. "It did not pass-yeas, 22; nays, 5". All the alliance n embers voted "no." Tl'C fourth e-natcbiil e-tranul ;d was one by Senator Holcombe, providing that insane convicts and insane inmates of the reformatory institutions ehall be transferred to one of the insane hospitals upon the order of the governor. Mr. Hench, who is away up on criminal law, having served a number of vara a prosecutor and criminal judje, opposed the bdl because it wou'd change the entencps of the court". If the bill passed the governor could send a life convict to one of the insane hospitals, from which Ids friends iniht cause bis release on a writ of habeas corpus. He believed such a law would not be constitutional. Insane convicts ought to be cared for in insane wards of the prisons. Mr. Johnson of Carroll, who has made more epeeches than any other member, took occasion to reject upon the Indianapolis papers btcause they had fabed to report his numerous "brief remarks." As usual, he prefaced his (speech by faying that lia would say but a few words, but nevertheless, ho kept on talking long after his five minutes' time had expired in favor of tho bill, faying it was in the interest of humanity. Ashe kent on talking, the mem "trs from both sides of tho house yelljd: "Tin e!" -'Vote!" "Vote!" Ihis angered the Carroll lawmaker, but instead of going for the members for this interruption, he turned on the legislative reporters for what they had said about him. "The Journal enys that I am lank, jaunty, promt i s im," said he. "Well, I am of it. It snvs, too, that I am irre pressible. es. 1 am irrepressible. I like to be irrepressible. It sounds Nepolconic." Laughter. He then complained that The Sentinel ignored the mcinbets froui the back counties. Finally Mr. Fau'kner wa3 given a c hance to cull for the previous question and the bill failed to pass yeas, 40; nay, 86. Mr. Adams then introduced a resolution, which was adopted, calling upon the governor to trans idt t the bouse the resiznations of the trustees for tho Kichmond insane hospital. by this time it was 11:30 o'clock and the senators lild in and the two houses ! entered into a joint convention to elect a j librarian and trustees for tho benevolent I institutions. No election was held for " ... a s.a . trustees for the eastern hospital lor the reason that the reaignation'of the member of the old board had not been otlicially received. Following is the result of the election: StAt Librarian J.-0)b P. Dunn, Marlon coun:, i01; Jin. Eunua L. Davidson, Hiatal county, So. TruMee of Urn Central Hospital for the In-naim-lr. L II.

with a veto message. It was promptly fiassed over the veto. The governor aiegvd as a reason for disappro ing the bill that it was unfair, unwise, urtjuct, undemocratic and unconstitutional. He appended a table of republican and democratic majorities by counties, to t-how that the republicans had carried 4S and the democrats 44 counties in lS when block?-of-five methods prevailed, but no t.ble was appended t chow how manv co'tnties the republicans

had carried at the last election when, for the Cr.t lime, the people were given an hom-st election. t Mr. Curtis then called up the con- ' prsssional apportionment bill, and it was , pasid under cusp"nsion oi the rules by a I partv vote, with an amendment, which the senate later on concurred in, transposing Jcfl'eron from the Fourth to the Third district: also Union from t!ie Fourth to ti.e Sixth or "burnt" district, and transposing Rush from th Fixth and Sheiby from the Seventh to the Fourth. Mr. Adams offered the following resolution, which wa adopted: YVbercns, From an ioTtst'zation cf the affairs of the Eastern Iedi&na iKi-i.iul forth insnne innde by a jniot cunuaittea frptn both houses of the pener.-il OMCTihlf, it has been raaile to appear lhat Geoig V.

When the committee rose Monday lact, two amendments were pending, one by Mr. Zoreher increasing the appropriation for the soldiers' orphans' home from 872,000 to ;T0,000, and an amendment to the amendment by Mr. Morris of Henry inakine the appropriation $100,000. Upon resuming consideration of the bill in committee of the w ho!e yesterday the amendments were disposed of. Mr. Morris' amendment was defeated. Mr. Finpen then on"er-d an amendment to the Zoercber amendment, Cxing the appropriation at ?85,(.W. Mr. Zoerclirr accepted the amendment. As amended the original amendirent was adopted and the atuount fixed at fiS-3,000. Mr. Fow er offered an amendment incrajing the appropriation for the pri.-on north to from JIW.O'X) to $115,000. It was not agreed to. The committee then rose for the purpose of passing S nator Lwmg's bill to legislate out of office the threo trustees of the the eastern Indiana liospitul. The bill abolishes the present board and creates a new board of three trustees to be elected by the legislature. The bill papsed under suspension of the rules by a strict party VOtn. The house again went into committee of the whole on the general appropriation bill. Mr. Claypool offered an amendment to appropriate 52,500 for a pedestal to the Morton monument. Lcet yeas, 2S; navs, 20. Mr. Robbins offered an amendment allowing S. JlcB. Shepherd $7'J5 for extra work performed as quarter-master under Governor Gray. Carried. Mr. Claypool then offered an amendment appropriating 52,000 to complete the pedestal of theMorton monument on Circle park. Mr. Harreil raised the pint of order that the same amendment had already been orlered and defeat!. Toint of order overruled. The amendment was adopted. Th Adjournment. Both houses adjourned sine die Monday, March 9. Tho usual scenes marked the end of tho session. The governor vetoed the fee and 6-i'ary bill and it was promptly passed over the Veto. A record of the acts passed during the session will be found elsewhere in this issue. Kxecntlvn If utiibiiggery. Governor IIovey's message vetoing the fee and salary bill is manifestation of rank hypocrisy and cheap demagogism. The governor puts bis disapproval on tho ground that the present incumbents of state and county offices are excepted from the provisions of the bill. What is to be thought of this performance when it is known that the same messenger who carried the veto message to the house conveyed with it a notification from tbo governor that he had approved the houe bill reducing the emoluments of the reporter of the supreme court, from the provisions of which the present incumbent, Mr. John I Gkiffitiis, a republican, is exempted? If there were a spark cf honesty cr; sincerity in the covernor's objections to the fee rnd salary bill he would have vetoed the supreme court reporter bill, which was open to the tame criticism that he directed at the former measure. Another fact emphaizes tho brazen hypocrisy cf the governor in this business. The republican stato platform, adopted on Sept. 10 lad, contained this declaration: We favor larislation by which officers shall be paid fixed salaries, having regard to population and the character cf services rtndereJ, and the prices paid for Himilar work in other occupations, and all fees collected to be paid into the proper treasury fnr the public benefit. SUCH LEGISLATION SHOULD TAKB EFFECT AT THE CLOSE OF OFFICIAL TERMS FOR WHICH ELECTIONS HAVE RE EN MADE AT TIIE TIME OF ITS ENACTMENT. Governor Hovrv accepted and indorsed thif platform when it was made, and so did evcy republican newspaper aud every republican politician in Indiana. Not one of them dissented from it until after the election, when they discovered that tho democrats had chosen all the etate officers and more than three-fourths of tho county officers 1 Does the governor suppose that tho people are to be deceived by hi? pretense of indignation at the democratic legislature for doing precisely tho thing that his own party, without a note of di-sent from any member, demanded should be donel Docs be imagine that his miserable subterfuges will prevent a proper judgment by the people upon the persistent attempts cf his partisans in tho legislature to prevent any action whatever upon the fee and palary question? Once more Governor IIovet has written himself down a demagogue of demagojue. He has trhled onco more with the intelligence of the people; once more be has ignored their cense of fairness and justice. The cheap stump speech which ho has injected, into tho journals of the legislature will Eerve no other purpose than to illustrate the insincerity of himself and his party in - dealing with great public questions.
