AGRICULTURAL, DEPRESSION.
Lazlnees Attributed ae. the Cause by a
College President.
The eternal and inexorable iaw that the
only price of good things is labor has its
application:to the subject ot agricultural
depression, says President Jordan, of Leland
Stanford,. Jr.., University, in an article i•n
the Forum. Though the enemy has sown
tares in the tax laws while the farrier has
slept, thia•alone cannot cause agrieultural
depression, nor can inordinate pensions,
wastefai subsidies, and the tyranny of capi-
tal, combined, if the farmer himself, were
not, in some degree, at fault. At any rate,
the resemly is in his own 'hands, and, while
striking a blow at the -cause of the injury,
he should look at himself, to see what part
of the -Ethane is due to his own weakness and
lack ot foresight.
The "relentless hell" of poverty which,
Henry George says, yawns beneath civil
society, isdue to the presence of a horde of
men who would gain something for nothing;
the Tuatara:I penalty for laziness is one of
the important demerits in our so-called agri-
cultural depression. A notion having beea
spread among country people that the dwell-
ers in. tawrisc'do not have to work hard for a
living..has caused. the farmer to think he
ought to take his rest, and the interest on
the time this borrowed isbecoming a heavy
charge. "While crossing Indiana, on a
bright, growing day in April," says Presi-
dent Jordan, "I counted forty men and
boys around the railroad station at Clover-
dale, where a crate of live chickeus was the
sole contribution tothe train's Ioad. These
were farm boys, who ought to have been at
work in the fields,. and village boys who
might have been doing something some-
where. These idlerson the station. steps
were embodied ghosts, dead to all life and
hope,withorilv force enough to standaround
and gape. At my destination I saw sixty
teen and boys, who had no need of • cures. of
any kind, because they were already dead,
standingoo a street corner, listening to the
noisy vender of a rheumatism cure.. Most.
of these were farmers, whose neglected
farms fay bathed in the sunshine, the earth
ready to rejoice only at the touch of a
hoe. Back on the old farm, in New
York, where I was bora, the spot
which mv father Won from the forest, and
on which he lived in, freedom and inde-
peudence, knowing no master, dreading no
tyrant, he had poorer tools than are now
used,poorer buildings, inferior facilities for
transportation, lower prices, and uncertain
markets ; still he knew nothing of- agri-
cultural depression. When crops were
smolt, and .prices low, he simply worked.

THE FARMER'S GARDEN.
An Apparently Sellable Plan Suggested
by Farm and Home.
Every farmer ought to have one acre of
garden fenced with woven wire and lath,
or so the chickens will not trouble it. That
acre should be long and all rows run the
entire length of the ground so that the
horse can be used in cultivating. The site,
if it can tun over a knoll so as to give
southern and northern slope, will prolong
the fruiting season about ten days. Plow
deep and after plowing put on from 20 to
40 loads of well -rotted manure and harrow
it in. Do not plow manure in, as you
thereby lose nearly one-half its value. If
the garden lays 16 by 10 rods north and
south, take the east side, four feet from the
fence, for a row of asparagus. Where this
stands if a dead furrow can -be made deep
and filled with good manure and 6in. ot
earth plowed on before the plants are set,
it is best, and the only case where I re-
commend burying manure. This row of as-
paragus will last a life time, therefore put
it on one side of the garden.
On the west or north side, eft. from the
fence, plant a row of grapes 8ft. apart ;
second row, 8ft. from the grapes,scurratits
and. gooseberries, 3ft. apart; third row,
blackberries, 8x3ft. ; fourth row, 3x3ft.,
raspberries; fifth row, black raspberries ;
sixth row, strawberries, 8ft. from the last
and 2ft. in the row, only perfect blooming
kinds; seventh row, 4ft, from the last and
2ft. apart, strawberries, all pistillate varie-
ties. You may ask why plant any pistill-
ates ? They are, when properly pollenized,
our best bearers, and by planting as 1 have
described, you can alwirys find pure plants
on the outside of each row, and you want
to plata a new bed each year and after two
crops of strawberries plow under the old
bed. This is the reason why the last rows
are next the vegetable garden. The other
'rows may. continue on the same land for 10
to 20 years.
. Plant potatoes or peas next to the straw-
berries, so that the ground will be in good
condition for your next two rows of straw-
berries. Plant all tows through- the whole
length of the garden and wide enough so
that you can cultivate with a horse. Put
in plenty of seed, tend well, thin out prop-
erly and then what room you have left'
plant to sweet corn or potatoes and this
acre of ground well cared for will be the
most profitable acre on the farm. -George
J. Kellogg, in Farm and -Home. .

Work Basket For a Farmhouse Chamber.
The sketch shows a common farm basket
covered with a long -gathered strip of or-
dinary sacking, which has first received a
powdering of small daisy -shaped figures
worked in long stitch

town; each figure re-
quires only seven or
eight Stitches, each
a stitch being about
half an inch long.

BASKET. tacked inside the bas-
ket just below the top; then the lower
edge is gathered in under the bottom, tack-
ed to position and finished with a round
bottom piece of the sacking. which is tacked
to the basket, through and through. A
strip of green striped carpet tinding is
bound about, the basket to confine the full-
ness, and the haudles are covered with the
same. Such a basket is !handy when one
has much wood to carry upstairs, and it
sav-es all litter from dropping bits of wood
and moss; it also saves unloading, for the
basket looks quite as well to remain in the
chamber as the old-time wood box, and
will hold as much as many of them did.
If necessary,' when spring comes, and every'
basket on the place is called for, the cover-
ing may beeettioved in a very few moments;
but an ola basket, past service, if neatly
repaired, will often do just as well as a
better one.
The Best Soils for Onions.
Onions will grow on any soil. from muck
meadows to a clay loam. At certain places
they are grown on very gravelly soil. A
muck soil should have gravel or sand added
to it to make a first-class onion bed, other-
wise the onions will be coarse, soft and
spongy, besides having a bad color and being
poor keepers. Two hundred loads of gritty,
gravelly soil to the acre is a good addition.
luck is rich in nitrogen, so commercial fer-
tilizers, ashes or bone should be applied
rather than barnyard manure. Very heavy
manuring 'flakes the crop better and earlier.
On ordinary onion soils 10 cords of barn-
yard manure, or its equivalent, makes a
good dressing. Farmers near large cities
use 20 cords of 'stable manure. In Bermuda
they use part sea manure and comtnercial
fertilizer. The three weeds most injurious
are twitch -grass, purslane and chickweed.
The first should be taken out every spring
before planting. The second produces many
seeds and every piece cut in weeding will
take root. Chickweed is the worst and a
bed badly infested had better be given up.
The ground should be put in the firlitirt pos-
sible condition before planting, good
implement to use is a gang plat- followed
by the pulverizer and the harrow. The
beds should be kept free of weeds and be
weeded six or seven times during the sea-
son. A hen with a brood of chickenwill
take care of the maggots in an acre or an
acre and a half.
No IN.iitrogen Needed.
If yoa will apply to the land which pro-
duces a large amount of straw, but shrunk-
en kernels of wheat, about 200 lbs. of pu,we
bone phosphate -at least, it should not have
any nitrogen in it -in conjunction with a
dressing of lime from 10 to 20 bushels per
acre, it will have a beneficial effect. The
lime may be spread broadcast, after it is
slaked, upon the surface some time before
the wheat is drilled in. You might also
try one strip of land with phosphates with-
out lime. la any case, do not use any fer-
tilizers which contain nitrogen, and I think
I would not put much farm manure on this
wheat land. You had better put this on
the corn ground as early in the winter or
fall as possible and use commercial fertiliz-
ers containing no nitrogen almost exclusive-
ly for the wheat. -Prof. L P. Roberts,
Nrnell (N.Y.) Exp. Station.
The•First Calf.
Heifers, if they have been well kept, will
make better cows when coming in at two
years old. If they have not been so grown
and so kept it is better to give them a rest
a year after having the first calf. Do not.
allow the heifer calves to become too fleshy.
Keep them growing, even if ytu have to
feed them on skim milk.

Burial Custorno.
Each country and each age have their
own fashion of disposing of their dead,
from the Patagonian wllo makes "lion
meat" of his spouse back to the ancient
Roman with his ancestral urns. Taken all
in all, perhaps there is no more reasonable
arrangement than that _ of the thriftly
Parisian, who manages to have each dis-
posed of the dead carried out "decently
and in order" through the exploitation of a
love of laviSli display in a minor portion of
the community. One sees nothing of the
ghastly side of the undertakers' work M
visiting the vast premises which have been
recently devoted to the use of the Pompes
Funebrea, away out in the extreme north-
east of Paris, in La Villette. There we
found only "the trappings and the suits sof
woe," the materials tor the funeral decora-
tions and the funeral corteges. Take it al-
together. a ramble Over the establishment
is one of the most interesting sights ot tile

The Kicker. .
I thought some one would kill him, as he
kicked from morn till night.
Or that some mad wretch would fill hirn full
• of buckshot out of spite :
But I wondered when the barber gave him
just the snioothest shave,
And the waiter and the carver softest hunks
for him would save,
And the porter bowed so meekly when he took
the kicker's grip,
And all cottoned to him weakly, though he
never gave a tip,
Trainmen watched with care the heating on
the car he patronized,
Not a hackman essayed beating when kis
kick was realized •
Even newsboys grinned compliance when he
quoted office rates,
And fair women sought alliance with this
molder of the fates. •
Like a mule, by earnest kicking he had won
all pleasant things,
And in heaven you'll find him picking out the
lougest pair of wings.

have been provided with a highly perfected
locomotive power and a steering apparatus.

And mother, she smiled

Her skill to this work did apply.

With stick and with spoon
The dye she was closely 'tending, ;
'Twas Fast Navy Blue,
So rich and so true,
O'er which she was eagerly bending.
Now into the pot
She gently did drop
A faded blue French wool serge dressi;
'Twos boiled in the dye,
Rinsed, and then put to dr,
And restored quite to usefulness.

What wonders with dyes can be done:
And now they all use,
And never refuse
These dyesthat stand washing and KM.

Should all women cheer,

The agents are small,
But useful to all
Are the Diamond Dyes fadeless and fair.
