6 POUGHKEEPSIE SEMI-WEEEXiY EAG1.E MAEOH 27. 1889. FARM, FIEID ARD GARBER. AGRICULTURAL UTENSILS TESTED. liUftAJL MOTIOISS. The Tem p erance Issue. Editor of the Eagle : o I like your views on the temperance is sue. The result of the New Hampshire vote shows, first, that the liquor men are determined. Their business is one of large profit and small taxes; and they will not give It up so long as money can keep it in their hands. Second, it shows that anti- whisky sentiment is in the ascendency in the country; but, as a rule, whisky con trols in the large cities. There is still good fighting ground to protect the rural dis tricts. The end to be aimed at is state prohi bition—then, national prohibition. In our own state the question should be sub mitted to the people;—-first, because the Republicans, who are in the ascendency in the Legislature, have promised it and have taken the first step towards it, and they should fulfill their pledges; second, the people ask for a chance to speak on OBSERVATIONS AND EXPERIMENTS OF INTEREST TO FARMERS. the question and they have a right to be heard. I hope it would be carried by Slate. Meantime, and in failure of the success of state prohibition, a well devised and ef feclive local option law should be passed. And this should aot be a law to carry whole counties or nothing. Better by towns and wards, as you have said But still better, such a bill as the Anti-Saloon committee has presented, providing for prohibition by counties when a majority of the county so votes. But even when the majority of a county goes against it, granting prohibition in the towns and wards where a majority vote for it. A larg’e portion of the state north of New York city and outside of a few other large cities and some of the wards in those cities could be brought under prohibition by a local option laws like this, even, though the majority against prohibition in those cities should carry the state against it. Those pretended friends of icmperance who are opposing local option in non pro hibition stales, and saying \I will never strike another lick for it,” show that it if- not so much the suppression of the evil gnawing like a viper at the vitals of our dearest interests, that they are atmjng at, as the building up of a political party. The question should be : How can the best work be done for the suppression of the saloon cuise, and with it the curse ot drink ? J. B. W eston . S taneordville , N.

Nearly aU of the enormous amount of sugar consumed in the United States is of foreign growth, because we cannot hope to compete with the tropics in the production of cane sugar. Any informa tion in regard to increasing the yield in our small sugar cane districts or of suc cessfully manufacturing sugar from other plants of wider adaptability to our soil and climate cannot fail to be of gen eral interest. From a brief review of the condition of the sugar problem in a recent report of the commissioner of agriculture many 4acts of interest are learned in regard to points that have been deterrained by ex periments made under the supervision of the department, with the hope of securing .a still greater prosperity for the sugar industry, and with the ultimate object of producing at home all the sugar which we consume. One point of great interest appears in the statement that by the adoption of the diffusion process the quantity of cane sugar produced is \largely increased and its manufacture rendered more effective and economical. So satisfactory has this diffusion process proven in Louisiana, it promises to speedily replace the old mill ing system and render sugar making in this country a lU’ofitable industry. One of the most promising sources of sugar for home consumption is found in the sorghum plant. It has been satis factorily ascertained that this plant ap pears to flourish in regions too hot and dry for the successful in'oduction of In dian corn, a fact of great importance to the semi-arid regions of the southwest. The sorghum j)lant is one of wide varia tions, sometimes showing a sugar pro ducing quality almost equal to the sugar cane. Beet sugar has been made suc cessfully on the Pacific coast. In Cali fornia, Oregon and Washington territory are extensive localities where a beet rich in sugar can be grown. On this side of the Rocky mountains. Northern Indiana, Southern and Western Michigan, North ern Ohio and New York also present soil and climate favorable to the culture of the sugar beet. The commissioner recommends the establishment of a special experiment station, in a suitable locality, for the future study of the variations in the sorghum plant, with a view to the per petuity of the one best suited to the manufacture of sugar.

When you see a runaway horse com ing, advises Southern Cultivator, do not- try to check him by a rush from the op posite direction or the side, for you will be immediately knocked flat by the col lision, but instead prepare yourself for a short run with the horse. Measure with your eye the distance, and start for the run while he is yet some way off, perhaps ten feet in the case of fair to medium runaways. You may depend upon his keeping a straight line, for a really frightened horse is half blind, and would not veer for a steam engine. He wiU go straight ahead until he smashes into something. So do you get close to the line on which he is rushing, and, as he passes you, grab the reins near the saddle. Gather the reins firmly, and then, leaning backward as you mn, give them a powerful yank. You may be able to brace yourself somewhat as you give this yank, half sliding on your feet. The strong jerk on the bits tells tlie horse that he again has a master, and prepares him for the final struggle. A step or two forward after the first yank, do it again. This is the finishing sti'oke. It never fails when given by a determ ined man. The horse is on his haunches. Keep a firm pull on the reins till you grasp the horse by the nostrils, and hold him so xmtil he is pacified.

The importance of having his tools adapted to the work to be done and the material that is to be operated upon is fully 9 -ppreciated by every mechanic. In agriculture, however, the adaptability of the machines used to the purpose and to the soil is too often ignored. Director Sanborn, of the Missouri agricultural experiment station, in a report recently issued, ^ves some of the results of a test made with harrows and other tillage im plements at the state farm upon four classes of soils, viz.: An old grass sod, a soil for several years under tillage and somewhat lumpy from the influence of drought; corn ground, from which the stalks were removed at the roots for trial and tested b^'ore plowing and while in its compact state, and a clover sod. From these experiments it was learned that no one implement excels in all re spects for all classes of soils, which illus trates the necessity of adapting machines to soil and pui-pose for which used. It was shown that the lightest draught harrow draws 30 or more per cent, harder than the average draught of plow, and over 50 per cent, harder than the neces sary draught of the plow per square inch of end section of soil moved. The plow is a double wedge, and therefore compresses the soil. It deals with masses, and is an inverter of mass, while har rows and cultivators deal with particles, and pulverize the soil, and must be ex pected to draw harder per square inch of soil moved. But the difference is not enough to warrant increasing the draught of the plow by making it a combined in verter and pulverizer of soil, as very con vex mold boards are intended to be. The following review notes are given of the tests made; 1. No one han-ow is sufficient for the best tilth of a farm. 2. The harrow needed, varies -with the soil and its condition. 3. Harrows, as substitutes for plows, do not save force. 4. Harrows till shallower than supposed. 5. The b o ttom of th e tilled a rea varies widely in ■egularity. G. Wedge teeth and flat teeth with a front slant 3onipress soil and are probably good for light 7. Teeth lifting dirt to the rear loosen soils best. 8. One han-ow may break the clods best, but not leave the soil as fine as another. 9. For a general purpose haiTOw on a heavy soil, depth of cut, looseness of soil, ease of draught aagl pulverization are the leading demands. ^ Wool Affected by Storage. A wool dealer and farmer says: Being in the wool trade and also connected with farming interests, I am aware that the storage of wool is a question frequently discussed, but I have not noticed that one important point, viz., the effect of long storage on wool has been considered. K wool, like butcher meat, could be bought as required, there is no doubt that washing would be a loss. Why? The yolk supplies so much potash that there is a great saving of soap in scour ing and the yarn is much softer. On the other hand, as the year’s supply has to be laid up somewhere, you must consider how unwashed wool will stand the long keep. My experience is that the color suffers and the wool becomes unfit for white purposes; also, that the potash has such an effect on the structure of the fiber that it gets quite brittle and does not comb well. _ j ______ Dairy Farming. The best advice that can be given to a person who wants to go into dairy farm ing on an extensive scale is to visit some of the largest farms in his vicinity where that branch of farming is carried on, and to observe the methods of those who are successfully prosecuting the business. Very much more that will be of advan tage can be learned in that w-ay in a few days of observation and inquiry than from any mstructions that can be given or that can be derived from books. One of the things that should govern in de ciding such a question should be the nahiral adaptability of the farm to stock raising, rather than to growing grain profitably. Again^ daiiying is usually the most profitable where there is a near and ready market for milk. W e i g h t P e r B u s h e l o f O a ts . From the reports of correspondents relative to the per bushel weight of oats, the following interesting particulars rela tive to the per bushel weight of oats in the most important oat producing states are summarized in The Farmers’ Review: Oliio—^Average weight, 32 pounds iDer bushel. Indiana—^Average weight, 31-J- pounds. nUnois—^Average weight, 30^ pounds. Kentucky—^Average weight,31 pounds. Iowa—Average weight, 36 pounds. Missouri—^Average weight, 31 pounds. Kansas—^Average weight, 32J pounds. Nebraska—^Average weight, 39 pounds. The highest weights reported were Cass county, 85, and Custer county, 36 poxmds per bushel; the lightest weight Dixon county, 20 pounds. Michigan —Average weight, 33 1-3 pounds. Wisconsin—^Average weight, 30 pounds. Minnesota—^Average weight,26 poimds. Dakota—^Average weight, 30 pounds. Speaker Cole Tells the Assemblj About that Little Matter. IT’S IflS BUSINESS ONLY. No Money Came, to Him in Any Way From That Ceiling, ALL TO BE LOOKED INTO. T h in g s T h a t A r e T o ld. Dr. J. B. Warren, ornithologist of the Pennsylvania state board of agriculture, stated before one of the New York in stitutes that hawks and owls are collect ively a benefit -to the farmer, though there are a few* objections. Of the ten species of owls three are injurious, viz.: the great horned owl, the snowy owl and the barred owl. The entomologist of the Ohio experi ment station reports successful results in keeping rose beetles at bay by spraying grape vines and peach trees with a diluted lime wash, made by adding a i^eok of freshly slacked lime to a barrel of water. If we were raising peaches largely, says the editor of the Rural New Yorker, we would use ground bone and kainit or muriate of potash. Phosphate of lime and nitrate of soda can never be rivals, for while both are necessary in the practice of progressive farming, the action of each is comple mentary to that of the other. “By feeding an abundance of bone and muscle forming foods, such A lbant , March 24. — During the Friday session Speaker Cole rose to a question of privilege and spoke at length about the suh- eommittee of the Fish celling investigation committee which is now out at Watkins, his homo, investigating his financial affairs to see whether he made any money out of the ceiling. The speaker had his bank books and checks with him, and went over his ac count to the house. He •accused the sub committee of accepting the statements of men who had not spoken to him for years. He said that his bank account had been swelled by the money received on notes and by suecessjve renewals of these notes. Some of the notes are protested and not yet paid. “I dislike to parade my poverty to the world,” said Mr. Cole, “but the virulence, indecency and persecution of the sub-com mittee compel me.” He then went into detailed explanation of the sums of money other than those which ho received from discounted notes. Then he went on to make his somewhat re markable explanation of other sums of money than those which he received from discounted notes. “The state committee was generous last fall,” he pid. “I live in the native county of Gov. Hill. There is a large vote there that is questionable. Possibly it was not a wise thing to do. Possibly I should not have received that money. With the ex ception of a few hundred dollars it came from the state committee. It was not in the re motest degree connected with the ceiling fraud, if fraud there be.”i \ [He concluded by saying ; “I dislike either to parade my poverty or to attempt to east aspersions on the character of anybody. Possibly I have no sympathizers here. It is possible that this persecution is encouraged by members of this House. 1 trust not. I have given all the details of my private af fairs to the counsel of this committee. They have found nothing in any .way to connect me with the ceiling fraud. I have explained to them all my deposits, and they under stand them all.” * Chairman Fish of the new investigating committee said that the committee had not authorized the sub-comniifctee to take testi mony in public, and especially the sub committee was not authorized to examine into the election expenses of any members of the house, bnt that the sub-committee had made no report, and that there was no knowledge of what they had done except the newspaper accounts Mr. Creamer said that the bank account of the speaker was to be verified by the sub committee, and that was all, unless they should discover other facts during their in vestigation. “There is no evidence against Mr. Cole,” he said, “but every member of this’ house is under investigation when the honor of the speaker is- assailed.’ The enor mous profit of the ceiling contractors aston ished the ceiling commission, more than any one else. They had confidence in the super intendent and architect. No member of that commission ever dreamed that such a colos sal fraud would be attempted with the sanc tion of the state officials whom they trusted.” The new investigating committee held a short session this morning and heard a few witnesses in corroboration of ^he suspected collusion between Superintendent Andrews, to whom charge of the work was given by the commission, and the contractors.

Speaker Cole announced to the house yes terday that as the legislature will probably adjourn May 16, after next Monday night he should issue no more passes to the floor, and that after that date all outstanding passes would be cancelled. Counselor Bowers, of the Fish ceiling in vestigation committee, told a reporter yes terday that he felt well satisfied with the work done by that body.

If only the bees are to he moved from one hive to nnother it may be done by placing the new hive on top of the old one with a communication between them, and blotving smoke among the bees and rapping on the lower liive. Experienced bee keepers have no trouble in removing bees and comb from one hive to another, but it will be best for a novice to get lome one with a knowledge of the busi ness to do it for him, at least for the first time. Quinby says there is no better time for transferring than when the apple trees begin to blossom, but the directions for cutting out the comb from the old box hives and transferring it to new ones, are too lengthy to be given in fu ll, here. \When the bees are in the improved . liives the removal of comb and bees is quite easily done.
