Collingwood in a communica- tion to The New England Homestead givesa clear insight into methods of culture practiced in his state. He 'rites: ,ELL _..- “â€"2 ‘1 1w: . Early varieties pay best with me, and I! ‘have found June eating and Bovee 181'] satisfactory to my customers. Most of ~my crop is grown between rows of :etrawberries. raspberries and other small fruits. If I try to raise a prize crop of potatoes. I proceed about as follows: Start this year on a. warm, well drained piece of ground and work it up thor- oughly with the cutaway, probably giv- ing it five or six different workings. Then use suitable fertilize . Sow a bushel per acre of early black cowpees and work them in either with a weed-er ‘ a a light toothed barrow, followed by aroller. I do not touch the field again until the let of August, then go through and sow as a venture 1‘3 pounds of crim- =aon clover to the acre. The field wonld .then not be touched till the following «spring. r{he cowpea vines will be killed by frost and fall to theyground. In the apring as soon as the soil would permit Ivonld go on with the cutaway barrow and chop and out the soil and vines as thoroughly as possible. This would re- quire at least four workings with the cutaway running in different directions. :stegmloom'éo a yard 3 vâ€" 1! the soil were deep enough to war- rant it, I would then plow as deeply as possible and not turn up the subsoil. After heveling the p!owed field with the Acme I-would plant in rows three feet -A- AAA uv~v_ .â€" . apart. I would drop from 1600 to 800 pounds of the high grade fertilizer to the acre in the furrow, then plant. Three days after plantinnge would be- gin work with a weeder or a light cul- tivator and keep the surface of the ground thoroughly stirred up. As the plants appeared above the ground I would cultivate at least twice a week with tbevtwo horse Iron Age cultivator. This machine straddles the row, and every tooth .in undez: ix_m_nediate control 8f 'Eefiairi-ver. At first} would put the teeth down three or four inches deep, but as the plants grew I would gradual- ly iift them until they merely scratched are: the tcp of the soil. When the plants were six inches high, I would fasten boxes on either side of the pole of the cultivator with holes in the bottom. The boxes would be filled with fertilizer, so that this would gradually trickle out in advance of the hoes. This cultivation would be kept up as long as we could possibly get through the row. If I were asked to grow a large crop of potatoes with- out a year’s preparation in cowpeas or some other similar crop. I would not attempt to do it, at least on my farm. Cattle feeders who cart and spread their manure as made have had a good 12:11 to top dress meadows if the meadows were hard enough to drive upon. I want to emphasize the benefit of fining the manure spread in this way. I have used this fall a light smoothing harrow behind which a bush harry was chain- ed. This was not too heavy for two horses. The barrow alone will scratch :p the chunks of manure and break them The bush barrow, made of four a six bushes in a bush head, will smooch along and mash. The first does not distribute well, the second alone xnns over close lying lumps without disturbing them, but the action of the mmbination is searching and thorough. Twice over the field, with a good rain or a good from between, will rival the $021! of a manure spreader in fineness and evenness. Orange Judd Farmer in concluding these remarks says, “Fine- 86!! of syn-ending greatly enhances the omciancy of manure for grass especial- 37. and also on land to be plowed.” TheSan Jose scale. although intro- Inced into the eastern United States scarcely ten years ago, is now known in Haasachasetts, New York, New Jer- ay, Pennsylyania, Maryland, Delaâ€" ware, Virginia, West Virginia.

If the people of the United Skates each 1126 one pound of cheese 21. year more than me; do, there would be a demand at home for all our product. The way to make the American people become ha- bitual cheese eaters is for the manufac- nrers to produce an article so good that we shall just tumble over one another to get hold of it. The way to make such i flue cheese is to observe the utmost 'are and cleanliness in every part of the work, from the milking and feeding of do cow to the construction of the cur- ing room and preparing the cheese for “'0 'vvâ€" -7 . - _ market. Even this is not enough. At the agricultural stations and dairy schools the professors ought to experi- .uent constantly in cheesemaking, look- ing always to find improved method” and make new discoveries. In this di- rection the work of Professors Russell ;u:d Babcock of the Wisconsin station ire especially to be commended. We have said it before, and we say it again â€"-whrre milk is drawn from healthy cows, fed and stabled in the :ightmanner, with every regard to the vleanlincss of the milker and his hands and clothes and perfect cleanliness in me treatment of the milk after it is drawn. with due attention likewise to its aeration and cooling, it needs 1)::- pasteurization. To claim that it does is to claim that nature does not under- stand her business. A company that used to make filled cheese but went into butter factory op- erations when the law got after them in the filled cheese business has lately failed. They operated 18 creameries in Illinois and Wisconsin. It would be easier to be president than to run 18 creamerics scattered through two states.

Foster, £31m )istcfied large, lack of up b1? the wars v-74. Mr. Foster on the Budget. Hsm. Mr. Foster rose to resume the budget debate and WM greeted with Op- position applause. He expressed his acknowledgements to the Government for pomiitting the discussion to be ad- jnurued until to-day. Some time he might be able to return the compliment to Mr. Fielding. Taking up the speech of the Finance Minister, he thought it would have been wiser if Mr. Fielding had confined his congratulations to the condition of the country, and had not mooted the results of Liberal policy. He could agree with ‘LA "A". W Alt. L'~lUluluBo Minister, he thought it would have been wiser if Mr. Fielding had confined his congratulations to the condition of the country, and had not mooted the results of Liberal policy. He could agree with Mr. Fielding in the main as to the gen- and condition and progress of the coun try. He commended the Finance Minis- tcr's action in placing the loan! on the nurket last your at half per cent. lower th.m the two preceding loans. BULL“ mu; unv 1 .......... a , , He disagreed with him, however, in his unfortunate remark that it was an ex periment. In fixing the interest at two and a half per cent. he was following 13‘ lung and safe line of precedents. It would have been a blunder to have placed the loan on the market at 3 per cent. In 1834, when the rate of interest was dropped from 3}; per cent., the gain in the rate was 6.25 per cent. In 1888, when the rate was reduced from 8% to 3 per cent.. there was a gain of 20.84 of 1 per cent; while in 1897, when the mte of interest was dropped from 3 to J 2%, there was a gain of 7.24 of 1 per‘ eent.:; so that, although the loan of 1897 was 21. good one, it wasnot as good as the preceding one. The loan of 189:3 was sub. scribed for six times over; that of 1897 was only subscribed for twice over; so that. while they might justly land the credit of the country, and feel satisfied 1 with Mr. Fielding's loan, it could not be said that it was an experiment, or the best loan ever put on the market. The Reduction of Interest. stutément reg: u-ding Cognate to this question was the pro- posed reduction of interest on savings bamk deposits. He thought it would have bean well it the Government thud loft the rate of interest at 3 percent. It was the necessities} of_ the situation which had compelled the Government to do this. They did not dare to put on extra. taxation, so they decided to take it out of the savings of the people. Where were all the pnntessions of the Govern- ment regarding economy? In 1895 Mr. Charlton had boasted that the Liberals could eflect savings to the extent 0! 85,- 000,000 without impairing the efficiency of the public service, while in Toronto Mr. Laurier had thought it possible that expenditure could he reduced two or three million dollars per annum. Sir Richard Cartwright, in 1896, thought an expenditure of 838,000,000 a disgrace and a. shame to the Governmentâ€"a thing utterly unjustifiableâ€"and yet, in this year the Government brought down estimates far exceeding this sum. The Debt Record. Take the debt record of the two Gov eruments. From 1890 to 1896 the average increase in the debt was $2,652.000 pcr mmum; in the first year of Liberal rule $3,041,163. while the increase for eight months of the current year was $4,500,- 000. Take the tnxition record of the two Governments. From 1892 to ‘1896 the customs revenue averaged 819,839,684. This year Mr. Fielding estimated it at $31.000,000, and in 1899 it would still be $31,000,000, or 1,200,000 greater than on the average from 189:3 to 1896, from cus- toms alone. Besides the amount that was to be screwed out of the savings of the thrifty. there was to be new taxation placed on the country on the pretext of helping sister colonies in distress. The proposition was made to raise the tuxe- tien on refined sugar, and then with a great blare of trumpets to say to the West Indian colonies, we will let you in at the preferential rate. Question of Expenditures. Take the question of expenditures. From 1892 to 1896 the average expendi- ture on account of consolidated fund was $36,850,000; an expenditure which the Prime Minister. when he was not Prime Minister, thought could be reduced two a ‘12. ill!!â€" meuluvv- ’ v-.vâ€"D_ _ or three million :iollurs, and Mr. Mills thought four millions. But how had the Premier kept his word? By expending in 1897 $1,400,000, and this year he pro- posed to expend $2,124,000, more than was expended in 1896. Either Fools or Knnvee. One of two things v was apparent. Either the Liberals were tooling the peo- ple when they made these promises, or} else they did not know what they were talking about. Up to this time there had been an evasion or violation of’pledgee, and. this year the Minister of Finance comes {Ward with a repudiation of the pledges the Liberals had made. Mr. Fielding LII hi5, speech hgd said; “I think , honorable gentlemen themselves will admit that it will not be possible to 60:1- tinne the expenditure on the same belie , ,_ .__ -__n_.. 10m 1900\ H m u that year (meaning 1896-1897),” to that it was evident the Government was not going to cut down the expendlmro by the one, two or threomilllona they had promised. Mr“ Fielding had delivered r, Sir Richard 3: harles Speak' Criticisel MT- an Effectively er. and Points herein, Which of the Liberal nd Sir : policy had no . more eflect than i the House. Fwd Both ‘ In this new tarifl faced both ways,ns usua it was an open plicy; a. a preferential plicy to Aâ€"n‘a‘n‘ Faced Both Ways. In this new tarlfl the Government faced both ways, as usual. As introduced it Was an open plicy; as expained it was a preferential plicy tOWards Great Bri- tain; as tunnel-explained it Was a prefer- ential tax-if! towards Great Britain and the revered natbnS; as carried out it was a tarifl can-yin; a. reciprocal ofler to all, and applied to yoreign nations, plus the Netherlands, Japan, and dear knows how ‘ many other countries aswell. Still they ‘ held that the favored nation treaties should not appy; thus the offer was open to the world, md Great Britain, it Was hoped, would uke advantage of it. In- deed, Sir Richll‘d made the definite state- ment that then were to be no restrictions in the policy 0’ seeking world wide mar- kets. As time went on it proved that the whole scheme Was untenable. M" ' The Minista‘ of Finance in his budget had Warned the manufacturers that the days of protecxlon were numbered, that ‘ eternal vigllmce must be the price of‘ future protection. Surely that'was the most stupid and malevolent statement :1 Finance Ministar ever made; for lts tend- ency Was to cripple the present industries and prevent: capital being embarked in new ones; and it was a threat to the nmnufnctureri that they must be not only eternally vigilant but eternally sub- servient. p1 A gain, Senate. “I think it was my duty," 53321;;- ponclusion, “to call t not) .0" 0 House. and mun: pa ahegattention‘ of the country L__- A: to Savings unnx AIIWIwam. in regard to the reduction of the inter- :st on savings bank deposits, there was .nuch to be said on both sides. He Was ‘nrprised that Mr. Foster had not dealt with the matter fairly. The Zullverein Treaties. After reviewing the tradeeituation, “it Richard took up the experience of ihc Government with the Belgian and Ger man treaties. He admitted that the home nuthoritie» iiad decided against the Canadian contcn ion, but he had no hesitation in snyinv shat the Imperial authorities were wrong But they had the power, and were, per “iaps, governed by diplomatic reasons rather than good law. However, the Gov ernment and Parliament had good reason to congratulate themselves on what htv‘. been accomplished in securing the abrl gation of the treaties. About Unfuiiilied Pledges. Regarding the failure of the Libera‘ party to fulfil its pledges of retrenchment Sir Richard pleaded that the late Govern -nent had made it more difllcuit for m, present Ministers to reduce expcmiiiur:.:~ thin he and his friends had supposed ‘ He held that it would have been far but ;er for Canada if she had maintained n revenue t-irii! rather than have adopted the protective policy. Sir Charles Was Critical. Sir Charles Topper, in reply, pointed out that in deciding to abolish the reel procal claim of the present tariff the Government were acting in accordance with his own suggestion, and in endeav- oring to improve the West India trade the Government also had his approval. He agreed, too, with the! statement that Can. :ida had entered 'upon a period of pros parity. Indeed. Mr. Foster had prophesied it two years ago, but neither Sir Richard nor the Finance Minister had been able to point to one single instance in which that prosperity was attributable to the policy of the Government. The fact was that to the splendid crop. the enhanced > prices abroad and the large mineral ‘ development ‘were due the enhanced ‘mlue of exports.
