An Awakening in New Mexico. Chief Justice I Bradford Prince of the Supreme Court of New Mexico and Presi dent of the J3ureau of Immigration of that territory, is enthusiastic about the prospects of the Territory of New Mexico, and said to a reporter: Two years ago there was hardly a mile of railroad in all the Terri tory, and now we have roadi crossing Now lexico at almost every conceivable angle. Thore is the Atohison, Topeka and Santa Fe running across the country from the northeast to the soutlwe'st, and more than five hundred miles long. It comes down from Kansas City and-the main branch will run out of the State to the town of Guaymas,. on the gulf of California, while another branch will go to El Paso and connect there with the Mexican Central for the city of Mexico. The Mexican Central is now building northwards from the city of Mex ico, and the two countries will soon become one to all intents fof business purposes. The Southern Pacific lias'also beeni built in that time, It enters the Territory in the southwest tronm Arizona, and will also. connect with El Paso, which is destined to become a railroad centre of no small im portanee. The line crosses the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe at Doming, a lively little town eight weeks old, thus making a through southwestern route which is much fancied by tourists who come on one road, the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe, and continue on the other, the Sodthern Pacilic. Then there is the Atlantic and Pacifie which connects at Alhuqu rque with the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe and runs westward to San Francisco. One hundred and fifty miles of this western branch have been built already, and tlie road is being pushed forward as rapidly as men and money can do the woik. Next, look at the Denver and Rio Grande, a narrow. guage line, which runs down in a straight line from Denver and enters the territory at tl.o north, near Conejos, continuing through to E Paso. it is now ilinhed to Espa niola, within thirty miles of Santa i'e, where it will connect with the Mexican narrow guage system. It has two branches running up the rich mining valley of tIe San Juan, about eighty miles of wmicim are linisted, and another running up the Char ma River Valley. The 'exas, Santa F"e and .Northern, to run up the Pecos River Valley in the southeastern part of the terri tory to Santa Fe, is just emerging from an emikyronic state, and it is expected that the compivany will soon begin work. This line Wil I connect at Espan.ibla with tie Don ver and RIio Grande. (Groe4ry Storom Tatik.

AGRIOULTURAL. BoNEs FORt TREEs.-Nature Is so born- iful and our heritage in this great country is so broad that we are not as people inclined to economize., in years to come, as the land is more thickly settled, he will be the suc cessful farmer who learns to make a little ground yield plentifWly. In those days the advice of the Agriculturist on the saving of old bones will be more valued, if not more valuable. , It says: "Plant food is concentrated in bones, and most garden era, who make a business or raising fruits and vegetables, appreciate their value. In tree planting they are almost Indispensable. They can be had of village boys generally for about twenty-five to fifty cents a barrel. They pick them up about the streets, gardens and slaughter-houses, the remnants of butcher's meats sold to famIlies. I This kind of bone is fine to be put into I borders for grape vines and fruit trees, and I to bury under old trees withoutany prepara tion. A bushel of these bones to a newly planted tree is none too much, and one may safely plant five bushels under a bearing apple or pcar tree, or grape vine. So large results will not follow immediately from these coarse pieces as from the ground article, or from superphosphate. But there will be in the soil a supply of food for many years to come, and the roots will appropriate it as they have need. 'The fine rootlets will seek the bones, as eagerly as they seek water in a tile drain. We have freqently taken i) grape vines planted in this way, and found the whole mass of bone, once solid, penetrated with fine roots. We doubt if any investment in fertilizers pays bdter than in these bones from butcher's meat, which are quite plentiful in our villages." AuE SuoiRr-HoRx CATTLE IIARIDY ?-Yes, we answer, as hardy as any other breed in existence ; and if properly reared, with abundant feed, not even the common scrubs of the country are inore so. Whatever slight delicacy is ever found is owing to keeping theni up In cold weather in too waria stables, in too close yards, and feed ing too high, especially with corn. To make bullocks this will answer, but breed ing animals, both male and feiale, should have no more grain or meal than is neces sary to keop them in full, steady growth. Oats, wheat-bran, or shorts, mixed with not over one-fourth Indian mcal, is best for this purpose, together witi a little oil or cotton-seed meal. Hoots also of various sorts are excellent, as they tend to soften the hay or straw in tfhe stomach, and render it more easily digestible, like grass in sum mier. During this time they should have amliple open-air space for exercise, except in cold, stoiny weather; then alone nced they be warmly sheltered. It is proved that if the dams of all kinds of doiestice stock, from horses down to pigs, are reared t as above, their olfspring, fron birth up, are hardier than such as are dropped fron those more tenderly kept and more highly fed. It is especially necessary that bulls t designed to be Soki and turned out among the wild cows of the great Western phiins should be hardily bred and reared. C Pt-r C.ovEi oN XoUl LAN.-An Ohio paper says that by clavering hundreds of a farms that were about worthless have been c rescued from dilapidition and ruin. It is an accepted truisin that as long as "clover will catch," the farm can be restored to t paying fertility, and by a good rotation is ii even getting more productive and profitable; t for after some years of such treatment the v land will bear harder farmning ; that is, two f or three crops may succeed a good coat of t clover before h:ying down to clover agaIn. a Itough new land should be subdued by the use of new clover. .Nothing so effectually rots out stumnps and~ kills weeds and sprouts, and prepares the land for the plow and good~ piaying crops.

One great error is often fallen into, and that is following the old tradition that a bushel of clover seed wvill do ifor eight acres. That, may have been enouigh to clover land pamrtially when it was new, but whoever ainms at getting up his land in a * sp~eedy and proiltable way should sow a bushel on four acres, so that, his land miay ., be thoroughly shaded. t bienmovso L~NI). -It is as vain to try to r imp~rove badly run dlownl land without ma nutre as to attemplt to fat ten an animal without food. .lf there is no nmanure to be e hadt it is ahnost hopeless to expect, to un. prove exhausted land by growing crops to ~ plough uinder.

DoNALD M'OREtozt, a notorious sheep Aifter (alias sheep-stealer), in the north Bighlands, being at last overtaken by the grlin tyrant of the huiani race, was visited by the minister of the parish, whose ap earance, however, was by no means igreeable to him. .The holy man warmly exhorted the dying Highlander to reflect ipon the long and black catalogue of his ilns, before it was too late, otherwise he would have a tremendous account to give it the great day of retribution, when' all he crimes he baab'ommittcd in the -world would appear in dreadful array, as evi lonce of his guilt. "Och I sir," cries the lying man, "and will a' the sheeps, and he cows, and ilka thing Donald has help id herself to, be there." "Undoubtedly," 'eplied the parson. "Then let ilka shen lenan tak her nain, and Donald will be a honest man again." tQuincy, (Ill.) Daily Herald.I peakIdng "by the card" C. H. Wood, E-q., of the C. & T.

"Shut That Door" Is a little old, but let us add: "Or P11 wallop youl" and it at once becomes a thing to be gazed at and pondered.over. "Forget Me Not" has no significance at all, and should have never appeared as a' motto. No one will forget you if you are like the rest of the world. Let us replace thoe meaning less words with: "Remember those Carpet Tacks." "Honor thy Father and Mother" is played out entirely as a motto, and can no longer be found at the fancy stores. What is now wanted is a card reading: "Give the Old Folks a Show." "Remember the Sabbath" hangs In thousands of homes where the old man goes fishing, the mother darns stockinger and the children play ball and marbles all day long. "Remember You Water Tax," would be far more ap propriae for such a family, and perhaps save considerable expense and trouble.
