even salt hny, whlch is usually nppnr

Tho grcntest proflt from tho uao of

is when tho fnrmor grows such crops ns

ns they can bo utillzod on tho farm m
Btond of ontniline cost of trnnsportn

chief valuo is in tho wator, ns tho wator
is n valuablo aid to ulgcstion ana con

Dot n uselcBS subatanco which ndds
woight only, but is as dosirablo
in tho form in which it cxists in
tho plant ns tho Bolid portions,
but whilo tho solid portions cost tho
farmer aomotimes, tho water does not,
nnd thnt is nn importnnt considorntlon
which must not bo ovorlooked. Tho
wntor in plants cannot bo supplied

Beets and cnrrots contain 1.800
pounds of wnter per ton. A crop of
twenty tons of beets por acro donoteB

and such a vield of beets is not a largo

less water thnn beets or carrots, nnd
potntoes aro sold at good priccs somo

compolled to uso caro nnd judgment.
It comes from tho clouds, it is truo,
but there aro poriods whon tho plants

IIoiuo Itoeo Culture,
Notwithstanding tho enormousnuan
ties of roaes sold in citv markets. and
tho fact that growors of roses cater al
most entircly to city trado, tho fact re-
mainB matnowuero is tnoroaoBO loved,
adraired nnd appreciated as on tho
farm. If it be nlso truo thnt nowhero
is it bo poorly grown, it is novor for
incK ot lovo, but clilelly for lack of un
dorstnnding ns to its needs. Nowhero
shouiu roses bo bo woll grown as on
the farm. Tho farm hns usually tho
tleep nnd lortilo soil in its long-culti
vntedgardon; it hns both variotv and
wenlth of fortilizor; it has UBunlly n
wBBim oi iooib. xsow ncn soil, propor
eotting nnd good cultivntion, with a
well-considered selection of varioties,
nre abBolutoly all that is nccded to pro-
uuoo mugniucent roses aimost any
whoro. In order that tho principlo of
roeo culture may becomo but as a b c
to ub,wo noed only to look at tho hab
its of tho roso. Its roots aro fow and
hard and long. It hns not tho many
flbrous fooding mouths of tho pansy,
for instnnco. Unlcss its roots can penc
trato deoply, it must suroly receivo
denth, or grcnt injury, from hent nnd
drought. Tho best roso growors pro
paro tho soil by wbat is known as
tronching. It is virtually nbout tho
snmo ns Bubsoillng; thnt is, tho soil is
flned two spado lengths dcop. But in
order not to bring nll tho loworstratum
to tho surfaco, tho llrst layor is thrown
off, tho second ono spadod as usunl,
and tho flrat ono tlirown back on top of
nll. It is cnllcd tronching, becnuBo,
instond of dolng tho wholo bed nt ouco,
tho top soil is first thrown off, mnking
a tronch tho width of tho spndo. Tho
bottom of thiB trench is thon Bpnded,
and tho top soil from tho second nd
joining ia thrown ovor on to it, nnd tho
procesa 1b repented.
Tho plnnttng of tho buBbos noeds a

Tho doirymon of tho country aro thor
oughly nrouscd on nccount of tho dis
reputablo mothods which havo beon
uscd in lllinois tho past fow mouths, to
defoot popular leglslation, and tho
methoda thnt nro bcing used in other
statoa to defeat tho intont of the law.
Tho timo 1b past whon tho dairy in
toroata, onormouB in thoir proportions
and influence. will submit to tho op
prcssion of tho boodlors who mako n
frnudulont product. Tho mothods of
tho lattor havo becomo so offonBivo
nnd impudent, thnt tho caso dcmandB a
drastic remodv.
Tho dairy intcrests of lllinois hnvo

bo done in lllinois, can bo dono in any
other stato nortn ot tno JUason and
Dixon lino, oven moro ensily than it
was accompliBhed hero, at tho homo of
tho traud.
Tho Unitod Statcs Buprcme court has
decided that colored olcomargarino is a
fraud. Upon this dccision tho dairy
intcrests will fight without quarter or
comnromlso. It will bo anti-coior loc
islation or nothincand tho public man
who darcs set himsolf up as a defondor
of a frnud, hnd bcltor mako up his
mind to retiro from politics nt onco
Ho will bo ns thoroughly in disfavor
with the farming element ns though ho
had stolcn money from tho hoepor of
cows, for thiB perpetuation of the col
ored olcomargarino irnucl amounts to
tho samo thing.
Any further attempts upon tho part
of theso manufacturors to influence lcg-
lsiation, as nas been dono in tno past
through disrenutablo mothods, is go-
ing to meet with aomcthing further
than direct combat. Tho dairy intcr
ests nro going to sco it ongroBsed bills

ing to learn how it is that a disreputa-
bio minonty ot boodlors aro pormltted
to tramplo upon tho majority who aro
natuing tor tno lntorcsts ot tneir con

It's a poor cramo that two can't nlav.
and thero will be some very interesting
fun in futuro, if any moro such disrep
utable, low-down, snoaking eilorts nro

as to vote ngainst tho bill, in any of its
CDnsiderations, found thcmsolves flood-

Curreut Comment.
OAT3. Trado continues alow, with prices
quoted about ateady on the basls ot (ormer
quotatlona. Constderable auppliea are yet
going for ezport, but are moatly lota bllled
through.
Beans. Keceipta havo fallen off but oth
erwlse the market ls unchanged. Thero ia
a full supply on hand with best marrow pea
and medluma dull at 85c. Extra yellow
eyea qulet at about 51.10.
OnBESE. Receipta for export, l,8S0boxes.
There haa been a very llght demand for tho
paat week and the aalea mado have been in
amall lota and at eaay prices. At the closa
lt la dlnlcult placlng tho flneat northern
twins and suiall aizes at over 7Jc.
Corn. Tho market cloBea hlgher, with
prices advanced about 1 to ljo in aympathy
with tho hlgher cost to shtp. For ateamer
yellow on track bllled through, tho cloae is
at about 33 to 33c, although moat of tho
recent bUBluesa haa been at about 34 to 34c.
No grado ia yet nominal.
Flour. Tho demand for flour yet con
tinuea alow, although at tho cloae the wheat
market Ia quoted hlgher, and the price for
llour la advanced about 5c. Buyera have no
confldonco in the futuro and will only oper
ate from timo to time aa thoy aro (orced to
have auppliea to use at once. This makea
aomo flour aelllug, but it doea not tako
much to meet the wanta of trade.
Lumber. Tho month of July haa not
oponed ouapicioualy for tho apruce trade.
Buying la light, the yarda belng conserva
tlve. They aay they are not dolng much
buslneaa, and as a cormequenco are not go
ing to lay ln any considerable atock, partic
ularly aa they aee nothing ln the Immediato
future that will put up prices. Valuea tc
day are very low, and natnrally ao with so.
much apruce coming Into the market.
Bdtter, There haa beon a ateady mod
erate demand for fine butter for the past
week with prices well austainod on atrictly
extra goods. But the weather haa been ex
tremely hot in all parta of the country, and
some of the lato arrlvals are showlng up
more or loaa affected. With such large aup
pliea to seloct from buyora aro very crltlcal
and gonda are riflcted for verv alight de
fCOia. TLore ls very little hortuerh cream
ery offerlng on tho open market. It would
ue ciimcuit to aell at over luc or to buy un
dor lOJo.
Wool, The market 'continues flrm,
atrong and activo. The sales are leaa than
last week partly becauao of the terriblo
hoat, partly becauao of the holiday. Tho
markot is, howover, atronger than over aud.
wo aro agaln compellod to advance quota
tlona. Tho advance on flno acoured terri
tory delalne from the freo wool prico of 30
centa to to-doy'a llgure 41 centa shows that
wool has already advanced more than 23
per cent, whlch Judge Lawrenco aBaertod
