Spending the People's Money. nXPEIUMIJNTS OUIUTl.Y IIIXI'.II TIIU l'AKM A I.AUOllINU STOCK TO AM. VAHM- uns AomcuLTunAt. tests that FAILED. f So many strnngo niul Incotiinrolieii. siblo experiments have been inado on tho Blato experimental farm near West Grove, Chester county, Mint tho onco beautiful place lias degenerated Into a neglected wilderness with tumbledown buildings, rickety fences, wretched looking livo slock and weeds every where This condition of affaire ex cites all tho moro comment on account of tho success of a private agricultural experiment, tho Iloso nursery, which was started in a small way In tho neighborhood nbout tho timo tlio state bought and stocked tho larm. Tho nurucry has increased in size and im portance every year, until now it is the largest placo of its kind in America. Its business in Beason amounts to S3, 600 a week in roses alone, and over 100 gardeners arc employed in the 70 greenhouses. The experimental farm contains 100 acres of good land and although it was well managed for several 'years tho placo was never self supporting and an annual appropriation of $1,000 was re ceived from the state. Many belliger ent farmers in tho county say that some of tho experiments niado by tho earlier managers of the farm were of groat benefit, particularly those made with phosphates. So interested were the agriculturalists of the country in the experiments that they visited tho farm frequently, and tho reports of tho results of tests were published in local newspapers and attracted a great deal of attention. A few days.ngo a dozen members of tho Concordvillo farmers' club visited tho farm and wero told that thoy were tho first, visitors that had been tliero for several months. They found tho placo in such a deplorablo condition that thoy sent a report to the state ag ricultural society. William Edwards is tho scientist in eliargo of .the place, and ho is assisted in his researches by a Lancaster county gentleman, Henry Klohr. Coforo they took charge of the place thoy were not noted as particu larly intelligent farmers, and Mr. Flohr admitted to a Times- reporter that "'sperimenls is all well enough, but this hero farm would do a great deal better if tho 'speriments was dropped and tho ground put into tobaccer. The farm house, a large, modern building of con crete, tops a small hill a few hundred yards from a public road. Fronting tho house is a fine arboretum, which is divided by a lano from tho main road ,to tho barn. Tho arboretum contains hundreds of fine Specimens of imported and nativo trees and shrubs, but they havo had no caro for years. Cattle have chewed, their shoots and robbed tho trunks and hogs havo torn up tho sward, until it looks as though half a dozen sub-soil plows, had been ripping up the earth. Tho brick barn is large and well built, but it is in wretched order. Its front roof leaks like a sieve and tho stable yard is a filthy lagoon, the waste of" which runs off into a brook and is carried away to enrich tho grouud of practical farmers in the val ley. Two of tho mows in the barn nro filled with sheaf oats and tho others contain unthreshed wheat. Tho oats are damaged by every rain, as the wa ter trickles through tho roof in a hun- , dred places. Behind tho barn stands an old stack of straw and a stack of weeds that wero cut and hauled there to rot and be mixed with the manure. The barnyard is surrounded by a stone fence, tho rocking of which has tumbled off in many spots and lias nev er been, replaced. Four wretch ed looking common cows stood knee deep in the barnyard muck picking a breakfast out of tho old straw pile. Three ragged sheep, two bucks and a ewe, wero in the field adjoining the barnyard and an undersized jackass brayed in a neighboring pen. In tho stalls of tho stable M'ero two horses and a pair of dejected looking mule, with tails like old dusting brushes. Tho stable is very filthy. At tho up per end of tho barn are half a dozen pig pens of the Quceu Anno stylo of architecture. Tho stylo of ar chitecture is still apparent, but tho structures arc so dilapidated that if not repaired thoy will soon tumble down. In tho pens wero livo hungry, wild eyed swine which, when Mr. Flohr ap proached them, mado frantio efforts to scalo tho fenco and devour him. Mr. Flohr, as ho beat back tho hogs, smil ingly exclaimed : "Thoy looks like wg had been 'sperimentin' with 'era and seein' how little they could livo on, but it ain't so. They have lots to eat, but.they'ro so stubborn that they won't git fat." Tho four cows, threo sheep, two horses, two mules, ono jackass and five hogs constitute tho livo stock out fit of tho farm and several animals named belong to Mr. Edwards. Two or three years ago the farm had a herd of fino graded and Jersoy cattle, half a dozen horses, a big drove of well fed hogs and a Hock of sheep ot the best . .blood. They havo been disposed of, but no ono appears to know who got tho proceeds. Tho farm had also enough first class implements to stock half a dozen common farms. It is all cone. A year or so aco tho farm had forty-threo new plows, which different manufacturers nad sent thcro for trial. Many of them wero nerer even tested. They wero all sold to raiso monoy to pay tho wages of laborers and other bills. Tho machinery was disposed of in tho samo way, To tho right, of tho pig pens aro tho big Fairbank scales, o.i which every- lliing raised on tlio place is supposed to bo weighed at ono timo or another. Facing tho soalcs nnd on tho upper sido of a roadway is a carpenter shop and tool house Tho building is in bad repair and its contents aro a lot of oiias and ends ot liltlo or no value, which havo been Hung in out of tho way. Midway between tho carpenter slioii and tho farm houso and on a lino with both is a pretty little ono story uuuiiu uuuiiiug, surrouuueu oy an iron . veranuah. This was intended for and was onco used as tho office of tho man ager of tho farm. It is now a store house for potatoes. A short distance behind tho olhce is tho hot house, in which tho oarly managers of tho farm raised fivo and eight pound bunches of grapes. jno grapes wero raised tins year and many of tho vines aro dead. In explanation of this Mr. Flohr said : "Tho big grapes all burstcd open nnd dried up like raisins when wo turned tho heat on to ripen 'em.1' Near tho farm buildings aro ten acres of peaches and grape vines nnd fivo acres of ap ples. Grapes and pears were not bo plentiful. Nono of tho trees havo been properly cared for nnd tho graiio vines havo been allowed to run wild. Car loads of liartlettu nnd other fino peaiB ripened, fell to tho ground .and wero nlowed to rot without being marketed, l no grouud under tuc trees being literally covored with decay cd fiuit. A few wagon loads of pears wero Bold in tho neighborhood, but no effort wus made to hud a better market for them, Fivo wagou loads gathered and mixed up with two loads of apples, wero ground up into fivo barrels or cider. Tho cranes wero sold in tho neighborhood at two and three cents per pound. Twenty tons ot hay wero gathered during tho season nnd good corn was raised on twenty-fivo acres of giound. Tho oxpcilments this year consisted of the sowing of wheat on a quarter ol nn acre of ground' divided into ten beds, different wheat and different fertilizers being used on each. In half dozen similar beds coin was planted with different phosphates. Tho grain was cut, threshed, weighed nnd dumped into the granary. Mr. Flohr says ho don't think these "'spoil mcnts" will amount to much, as ho and Mr. Edwards had lorgotlen tho kind ol lertulzcrs used on each lied. "Uoi 'em mixed up," as ho expresses it. J'hila. Times. Manuring OrohariU. The iVcw J'Jnrjlaml Farmer strong ly urges tho manuring of orchards bu fore winter sets in. The following ar ticlo from that paper is worthy of special attention : "This has been a bairen year lor tho most of the orchards in tho country, but tho trees have mado fruit buds for next year's bearing, which will bring nbundant crops next year should tho season prove favorable. Now an over-abundaut crop is often of little moro value than a moderate crop in a year of less general abundance. Farm crs who treated their orchards pro perly havo apples to uso and to sell this year when they bring good prices, but they began tho treatment at least a year in advance. A great many applu trees that stand in grass aro looking anything but flourishing with close, minted top and dead oriuossy branches. If tho laud under such tress could bo ploughed and tho tops judiciously thinned out, and, pleanty of manure spread over the ground, tho trees would take a new start, and possibly bear a fair crop next year. If nil this should bo done, most persons would give near ly all the credit to the ploughing, be cause it is usually noticeable that trees which aro ploughed around look much healthier and produce far better crops of fruit than trees standing in grass, It must bo remembered, however, that ploughed ground usually receives all tho manure, while tho grass laud gives up its annual crop without tho appli cation of any manure whatever. Now, if wo would'npply mannro as liberally to the trees that stand in tho grass as to those under which wo try to grow cultivated crops, wo should find that wo could got equally fino fruit and iu great abundance. "The time to prepare for a crop of apples next year, that will bo worth picking and carrying to market, is now, before tlio ground fieezes. Spread a heavy dressing of good stable manure under such trees as are worth saving, and dig up the poor ones and cut them into firewood for burning these cold winter evenings, which aro booh com ing. After spreading, draw a heavy bush or drag over tho ground to crush the lumps an J spread tho manure more over tho cntiro area, and to press it closo down to the surface where the rains and melting snows will carry it down into tho soil where the roots will find it. Apple roots in grass run quito near the surface and will be reached by manuro mucker than it all tho roots aro destroyed by ploughing to tho depth of six or eight inches. "Wo aro not at this timo arguing against ploughing apple orchards, but to ask those of our readers who aro not prepared to plough under their trees, to givo tho top dressing a trial, even if it be only upon a lew trees In our own experience wo havo been surprised to notice how quickly a treo will re spond to manure spread upon tho snr- lace, even when thatsurlaco is in grass. J. no trimming out ot the over-denso tops is work that may bo commenced at any time, and lontinuo through tho winter, as leisure is found. In thinning out it will better to tako out many small limbs by several cuts, than to remove large ones by cutting onco oniy. Large wounds do not heal as readilv, and taking out largo limbs leaves die treo less well balanced. The aim should be to diminish tho number of fruit buds by thinning out tho small twigs and thus thinning tho fruit after it is formed It would have been better to havo begun this work a year earlier, but something can be done even now to ensuro a crop that will bo salable next year, whether tho general crop is large or small. Eow Diamonds are Out. "Tliero aro three processes necessary to bo gone through witlr between tho rough stono and tho diamond as you sco it here,'' said a Cleveland jeweler to a reporter. First a pieco of stono tho required size must bo cut off. To do this wo use a circular saw mado ot sheet iron and without teeth. It work ed liko a woodworker's saw, and two men stand at tho treadle. Ono man holds tho stono to be cut tightly against tho edgo of tho saw, while the other, using a small leather dipped in oil, applies diamond dust to tlio edgo of tho saw. Tho Baw is mado of very ductilo metal, and tho particles of dia mond dust, becoming firmly set in, soon wear through tho haiuest stone. Now tho piece of diamond passes to tho cutting table, upon which is strap ped a wheel running parallel to tho top of tho table. Tho Btono is fastened by cement to tho end of a stick six inches long. Tho lapidary takes his Btick in his right hand and holds tho stono firmly ngainst the wheel until ono face is ground down. Diamond dust mid water aro constantly applied to tho wheel. Tho tablo and upper facets of tho Btono aro cut this way, and tho stono is then removed trom and read justed to tho stick beforo tho lapidary ems tuo under sides, cadets and remain ing facets. Tho stone is manipulated the same in the third or polishing pro cess as iu tho cutting process. Tho wheel, however, is composed mainly of tin, nnd tripoli and rotten stono are used in the polishing process.' Fi.oun Soup. Put somo dry flour m a fryingpan, nnd shako it lightly over a clear, not too hot, lire, until it becomes o golden brown. While still hot, pour over it a sufficient quntity of milk to lorm tho soup, it will ot course, en tirely depend on tho number of persons to partake of it. Add pleanty of whito sugar nnd powdered cinnamon. Uook tho mixturo very carefully, turning it round gently, always in ono direction, with a silver snoou, liko u custard. At the moment of serving, this soup must bo tmcKcncd with tho yolks ol eggs i fried croutons, fingers of bread toasted brown, or crushed ordinary captain's biscuit, aro eaten with it. instead of browned flour, plain rice flour can bo used: which need not bo treated.

After a few words he persuaded her to return homo i nnd everybody believes, of com we, that ho promised her a jiow bound and a sealskin Bacquo. THE COLUMBIAN AND Printing a Newspaper Without Type. A now lyno-scttlngmachlno is invent ed. If tho claims for it nro trite, tho day of tho printer is drawing to a close. It will further help tho cheapening of mo prico ot newspapers. Tlio maclnno has tho capacity of setting 10,000 ems a day. It works with ironc! lad accuracy, find avoids tho fault of tho present tjpo setting machines in that it can "justify" tho lines as a compositor can now with tho hand method. No typo is necessary with this maohino beyond a few alphabets of tho vnriotu kinds nnd sizes required in tho make up of a newspaper. Thoro is a key board to tho machine liko that of a piano. Thcso keys represent letters nnd punc tuation marks. Playing on them im presses theso forms into a paper matilx similar to that now employed iu mould ing tho metal forms employed upon tho Uullock press. Instead of setting up lypc by tho old method and taking a matrix from tho locked form as a wholo tho impression is mado direct from the machine, o:k letter at a time, so that when tho typo setting machine is through tho matrix is instantly ready for tho moulding of tho cylindrical forms employed upon tho modem press. Tlio valuo of this ono feature in tlio mero saving of time is great, be cause tho gain of ono minutu in tho stereotyping of the forms of a great odico is experimented with iu the olliuo of tho Philadelphia 2'imes. Tlio in ventor says the machines can bo itir nished at a cost of $700 each. His Last Chance, (Now York Journal.) As Mr. Popperman throw himself on tho sofa last Monday evening, and took up tlio evening paper, his wife said to him ; "Charles, I went to a wedding to-day." "Did you, indeed!" said lie. "Whom did youmarryt" "Vhat an idea 1 I saw a couple mar ried in church." "Oh." "Yes. Thoy were married accord to the latest fashion." 'Tho latest fashion t What is that?

For merly you know tho brido and groom both camo down tho samo aisle. Now, when they leave tho carriago at tho entrance of tho church, tho brido comes down tho aisle followed by her maids, but the groom goes around tho corner, comes in at tho sido door, and meets tho brido at tho altar." "What's that Do you say that tho groom goes around the corner nnd comes in nt the side door t" "Yes, denr." That's a slendid idea." "Why !" "Causo it gives him a good chance to get away.
