Olorks in Politics.
Tho determination of tho President
to carry out his policy with regard to
civil scrvico reform seems to havo com
municated itself pretty thoroughly to
tho heads of his departments nnd
through them to tho heads ot bureaus.
This nppcars moro prominently just
recently through applications for leaves
of nbsenco by tho employes of tho
various buroaus. homo oi these leaves
wcro to take effect in September. In
fnnt. most of the clerks nostnono their
summer vacation till tho latter part of
tho season. Uy doing so they havo
hitherto been nblo to comblno business
f a political naturo with thoir vacation.
It is tho determination of thoso who
aro In sympathy with tho Democratic
President to provent ns far as possiblo
eaves of absenco lor political purposes.
It is said that a number of theso leaves
havo been requested throuoh members
of Congress quite recently, and mo
npplicationpNhavo been answered by
,ho heads of tuo departments uy rc
picsting tho member asking tho leave
o state whether it was lor political
purposes or not. Jf tho leavo was asK-
d lor tho employe wun ino viow to
lis assisting tho Congressmen in mend
nr his political fences, tho leave
would not bo Granted i if It was purely
for recreation or personal business,
there was no objection expressed as to
tho leavo being granted.
A Democratic member, who received
uch a rcnlv tho other day, was very
much enragod. IIo bad asked for a
leavo of absenco for a clerk to go homo
to his district, nnd tho supposition
naturally was that ho desired somo
political assistance at home, and this
government oflioial was chosen for the
purpose of rendering it. Tho supposi
tion seoracd to havo hoen true in this
nstanco. and tho member was very
much angered by the reply. IIo said
it was unprecedented in tho history of
tho government and declared that it
was the design of Republican superiors
who were still in ollice, to provent
Dcmocratio clerks and other employes
from returning home during tho eltc
tion or having anything to do with
olitica. "In every instance, said lie,
'in winch leaves aro asked for Demo
cratic employes wo havo this ciril scr
vico reform thrown in our faces. It
is an outrage and a shamo and is due,
tako it, to tho lact that tlio men over
theso Democratio clerks aro Republicans
and want to provent them irorn exer-
cising.thelr rights as American citi
zens." The fact is, however, that tho
'resident has already informed his
chiefs that, so far as possible, ho de
sired that tho government officials
should havo very littlo or nothing to
do with political campaigns.
OanaQa Thistles.
A luxuriant growth of grass thrco
years in succession will kill out this
pest in any held, remarks a writer in
tho Farm and Fireside. It is a strong
assertion, but it is true. I havo exter
minated threo beds or patches of the
thistles on this farm, and I havo seen
tho same results on at least two other
farms. One of the beds on this farm
had taken possession of about an acre
and a half of ground.
Tho manner In which 1 do thu work
ia as follows : I plow tho field (or thistle-bed
only) in tho fall, and about tho
middle of tho Juno following I re
plow it, then top-dress it with fine
stablo manure. If I don't havo that
I use a fertilizer of somo sort, usually
phosphate, as it is prepared and sold
by many of tho chemical fertilizer man
ufacturing companies i uso enough
to warrant a good catoh, or stand, tho
amount depending upon tho fertility of
the Boil at tho time. I pulverize tho
soil thoroughly with a harrow ; then
about tho 20tn or 25th ot the same
month I sow it to buckwheat. I sow
it very thin, so that it will not shado
the young grass too much. I then
harrow it twice, and bow tho grass seed.

Ono-half Timothy, ono fourth littlo red
or medium clover (hero clover is spok
en of as grass), one-fourth big or mam
moth clover. I sow thick about one
peck per acre, I then harrow onco or
twice.
I harvest tho buckwheat when ripe.
Tho next spring I top-dress with ma

Tho Eight Kind of Dairymen.
Thero is no denyintr, savs Hoard's
Dairyman, that we must havo better
cows to do business with and wo need
them all tho more in times of low
prices. A cow that will irivo 0,001)
pounds of milk a year will make a
proht lor hor owner oven on tho prices
of tho past summer. But where will
tho average cow that gives only 3,000
pounds a year appear T On tho wrong
sine oi the ledger ot course. The mis
eiou tho Dairyman lias set itself to ac
complish is to bring up the btandard of
dairy farming in tho northwest. Thero
aro many kinds of dairymen, as wo
havo discovered. This is shown not
only in the character of tho mnko but
also in tho profits they receive for tho
labor and capital thoy expend.
wnen wojitep into a creamerv and
tho proprietor kindly allows us to look
over tho record of his patrons and wo
find ono man with cows that yield him
foity dollars worth of cream a year and
another whoso cows yield only twonty
dollars ..worth, our heart goes out to
that twenty dollar man, and if possiblo
wo want to get at his understanding of
things, wo wan, to show him that
tho first thing to do is toHtudy how his
neighbor makes twice as much monoy
as ho does. That old saying, "What
man has done, man can do," is wonder
fully truo in dairy business. Tho cream
ery patron in particular, needs to ho
stirred up to a deeper study of tho cow
question. IIo needs better understand
ing of what can bo got out of a cow
by proper selecting, breeding, feeding
and caro. Ho ought to havo tho best
tool that can bo got and tho cow in
tool. Tho Dairyman has noticed for
cigbtcoii years in Wisconsin that when
over a farmer set resolutely about tnak
ing a first class dairyman of himself, ho
has usually succeeded, and what is
right to tho point, ho never made tho
best prolil possiblo in tho business, up
til he arrived at that determination
The ranks of well pouted dairymen aro
being recruited rapidly every day, but
it must bo remembered thoy nro invar

who compare their own results with

tho legal weight is ,50 pounds, thougti
it Is presumable that custom makes GO
tounds tho standard thero as elsewhere.
Ryo weiuhs CO pounds in all tho states
except Illinois, whero ii t pounds makes

Corn in Now York must wei 58

Now .Tersov, 30 pounds ; in Connecti

32 pounds. JJarlcy weighs 47 pounds
in Pennsylvania; -1-1 pounds in Illinois;
40 pounds in Vermont, nnd 48 pounds
in nil tho other states.
Buckwheat varies in legal weight in
liffcrcnt state), from 40 pounds in Illi

Now Jersey and Ohio clover seed must
weigh 01 pounds per bushel; in otlter

Tho legal weight for potatoes is GO

Iho abovo figures havo been taken
from tables Biipposed to bo correct at
tho lime thoy wcro published, which

probablo that tho legal weight of a
bushel has been changed in several of
tho stated sinco the, tables were pre
pared. It would seem to bo wry de
sirablo to havo a tuoru uniform stan
dard, and tho tendency of trade is to
wards uniformity, tho different legal
standards of tho several Btates being
moro or less ignored by dealers. Thu
cental or hundred weight system is also
being used quito generally in tho sale
of grain, shorts, cotton seed meal, cider
apples, and somo other commodities.
The Blots in Belfast,
Wherever in England, Iieland or
any country rioters become a mob and
offer violence to human life or proper
ty, they aro not only criminals in the
sight of tho law, but common enemies
of society. They aro doing thoir wotst
to undo all that has been accomplished
by modorn civilization and tho rioter
must everywhere bo treated with tho
sharpest and quickest suppression.
Tho riots in Belfast aro particularly
distressing, inasmuch ns they appear to
emanate from religious piejudiees and
aro a reawakening of old feuds that
havo for a time btcn hold in abeyance.
Thov como from the Protesta'nt or
Anglo-Scotch Irish 'section of tho Irish
population, who havo recently and all
tho time been exhibited as the proper
lemenls in Ireland that ought to rulo
the island, and they have apparently
grown out ot seeds sown in Ireland
months ago by a notablo English
statesman and sown not for generous
or human, but for paltry party pur
poses. Thero was no need of a not in liel-
fast. Tho division in Parliament had
gone against homo rulo and tho Na
tionalists. A sentiment was grown
up in England in favor of inserting in
any futuro measuro of. home rulo somo
clause recognizing tho special claims of
tho Anglo-Irish Protestants. Tho
Nationalists for a long time had been
careful not to needlessly arouso tho
passions ot tho Orangemen, and tho
atter wero in no danger from any
causo. They appear to havo been
crazed with tho prospect of victory and
so wero induced to' act, as they havo
otten acted betore, as it Ireland bo
longed to Orangemen nlouo.

and of its religious or political bear-

of Irish religious projndioes, and, sec
