There is not a single fanner in the senate of the United Statee and very few In the house, simply because the farmers, haring tho appointing power, refuse to appoint one of their number. If we can not trust each other how do we expect presidents or governors to do so? Betting men say to a man who is doing consid erable betting, “Put up or shut up.” Should hot the farmers do likewise? If they do not wish to be ignored by tho appointing power they must imitate the “heeler,” and when they are ignored await the opportunity and then ignore the "other fellow." It will no doubt surprise the president and governor if farmers remember the snub when tho next opportunity to vote comes around, but it will bo a surprise that will do good. Ho is down at the bottom now; and when somebody else drops tho farmer can stand on him and reach the lower round of tho ladder.—J. H. Brigham. Scrapings from the henhouse thrown on the pile of horse or cow manure will not breed hen lice, as the dust from dry earth will destroy them as fast as they hatch.

It is learned from the report of the phylloxera commission that each year lias show-11 an increasing acreage of ‘re constituted vineyards in France, mostly by menus of American stocks, which prove more and more satisfactory. The efforts to !>rodaco by hybridisation phylloxera proof varieties have so far not proved successful, and most growers still depend on grafting on the American stock. No where has the combat been carried on more energetically t'uin in France, and nowhere has so much success been achieved against phylloxera attack. QuentlmiaMo AUl for Farmertt. Mr. Ewart, the representative in con gress from this dutrict, where the farmers are very poor, so much so that ■cores of thorn live through tho winter on corn purchased in tho spring and summer on borrowed money at n dollar or moro a bushel, has introduced a bill In the house of representativea having for its purpose the lending of money by the government on mortgage of tho farms at 2 per cent, per annum, but by a strange Inconsistency he exempts from the proposed privilege all farmers whose land Is not worth *500. If this proposed bill is for tho benefit of the poor farmers of tho district repre sented by Mr. Ewart, tho majority of whom are not worth *500, of what ad vantage will It bo to them? Money is borrowed by these poor farmers often to buy food until their crops mature at most usurious rates; u hundred dollar loan or less Is often made at 8 per cent, interest and a discount of 25 per cent., both on the gross amount, so that tho borrower of *50 gets no more than *81.50, for which ho returns in six months (the whole of the interest is exacted) tho *50 for which he has given a mortgage. Where Mr. Ewart’s philanthropy for the poor farmer comes in it is hard to per ceive; but it is easy to see how it may be turned to tho advantage of tho rich ones. A fanner who can borrow *2,000 may lend it out to his poor neighbors on tho term* mentioned and make a profit of just *020, getting *000 for tho loans and paying *10 only to tho government for the interest. Ho can thus live very comfortably on the proceeds of other men’s labor.—Asheville (N. C.) Tele gram. Tlic Flfjht for S Iver. in a recent speech in the senate Henry M. Teller made some pointed statements which were so thoroughly unpartiaan ns to entitle them to the consideration of every fair friend of honest money. Mr. Teller went on to charge Mr. Sherman and his frienils with having by the law of 1878 added *1,000,000,000 to the public debt and 83 per cent, to pri vate debts. Tho complaints of the peo ple, Mr. Teller declared, must be heed ed. The sophistry and falsity of tho senator from Ohio could not keep the people in ignorance of that economic crime and of its legitimate and logical results. The s;>cal:er was willing to admit that there were great financial considerations involved in the question. It might ho a question whether free coinage could be proceeded to promptly. Honest men might differ about it. But the man who ■stool lieforo the senate arguing for the single standard was either dishonest or ignorant and had no right to represent the interests of the American people. If the people could put in the White House and in the treasury department men who wanted to conquer tho single standard influences, they could bo con qncred, but never until then. Mr. Teller went on to speak of the silver plank in the Republican national platform, and said that if he had sup]>osed it to be mere claptrap the Republican ticket would not have had such support from him, and would not have received the great majority that it did in the state of Colorado. Mr. Teller went on to say that tho bi metallic principle had had its worst enemy, its most effective foe, the man who had done it the most harm, in the treasury department, It had been within tho (lower of the administration to relieve the people, so that what the people suf fered was "at the door of the adminis tration." But there was no feeling favor able to bi-metallism in high places, and would not lie while Wall street could in fluence (Kilitical parties. Each party had been met by the declaration that con gress mast legislate so as to gain the good will of tho business interests of the country. That meant Wall street. He remembered tho case of a president (Mr. Cleveland) addressing a crowd of people in Wall street, and saying that he saw before him the representatives of the great interests of the country. But the fact was, Mr. Teller said, that he did not see before him a single man who had ever done an honest day’s work, ever produced mi article of commerce, or ever promoted “he industrial pursuits of the country. In conclusion Mr. Teller declared that, no matter where the Republican party or himself should be left, his vote should be given for that measure which would loosen the burden put upon the debtors of the country, and do it without detri ment to the creditors. When to Trim Apple Trees. At one of the New York Fanners' in stitutes the question “When is the best time to trim apple trees?" was replied to as follows: Col. Curtis—Opinions vary. Some say when the tree is growing the fastest; others say this will injure the tree. I believe it will. Mr. Hoyt, of Connecticut—We do the most of our pruning the latter part of winter and in early spring. Secretary Woodward — I prune for fruit in winter, and in the early spring for wood, when the trees are in leaf. Mr. Powell—There is really no dor mant condition of any tree. A constant change is going on. I prefer to trim my trees just before they come in leaf. Mr. Frnner—I begin in the autumn and trim all winter. Galls by Harness. When the harness rubs the skin it should be softened by a good soaking with hot water and then well oiled with castor oil. A piece of sheepskin with the wool on it should he fastened on the tugs where they press on the skin. The galls may be dlisted with calomel, which is the best application that can be made. It may lie applied by means of a puff made of cotton batting. Collar galls may bo prevented by softening the collar as above suggested, and by washing the horse's neck every evening with salt water. Pads are objectionable, as they produce sweating, which causes the skin to he chafed. n* CoafTMSioaal Ubnry.

There has existed in Japan for many centuries a curious law to the effect that whenever the emperor or empress ap peared in public no other person should seem to occupy a higher place than this member of the royal family; therefore on such occasions the shatters ot all up per stories were drawn, and the upper parts of the houses through which the royal party moved were seemingly de serted. This law is still in effect. Three months ago. when the empress went into the country for a brief period, an elab orate announcement was posted in con spicuous places along tho Une of her con templated ronte commanding the pnblic to observe strictly certain requirementr of etiquette, to wit: When her majesty shall pass along no one must look at her from the frame built on bouses for tho drying of clothes, or through cracks in doors, or from any position in the upper part of their houses. If anybody wishes to see her majesty he or she must sit down at the side of the road by which her majesty will pass. All children must be taken particular care of that they dp not play in the road, and so obstruct the passage of her ma jesty through the streets. No one must look at her majesty with out taking off his hat, neckcloth or turban, or whatever else he may be wearing on his head. Moreover, no one most be smoking while he or she is look ing at her majesty, nor must any one carry a stick or cane. Only women wearing the clothes of foreigner* will be permitted to retain their head covering. Although it may rain, no person will be allowed to put up an umbrella while her majesty may be ju*: ing.

It continues: Second —We demand railway transpor tation, telegraph and telephone service at actual coet; and that the government •hall own and operate the same.

The papers have been full of para graphs about Edward Grubb, “the Bris- tol Centenarian." who ia described as having died at the age of 109. Grubb was not a centenarian, for, according to his own account, he was living at Kings- land, where he was born, when the battle of Waterloo was fought, and yet he went to settle in London “three or four years before ho was 20." It is clear, therefore, that, as only seventy-five years have passed since Waterloo, Grubb can not have been more than 90 when he died. A still more conclusive proof is af- Tabott & Soni.
