The point from which the water

lie capitalizes the annual extra cost of

recount seem te be taken, in the calculation
tbatasavingef the intersten 860,000, for

present pumping station, of the portion
of the (60,000, spent in laying a supply
pipe te the present station, that will be lest
If at tbe end of seven years tbe station is
moved.
We have been of the opinion that the
economical plan would be te supply the
present station with water by a pipe from
above the city drainage limit, as Mr. Crees
suggests ; but it evidently is a matter that
seeds careful calculation, ilr. Crees' fig
ares de net seem te make it very clear that
this would be the cheapest arrangement.
If the pumping station is te be
. removed eventually, a large part of
the cost of bringing a temporary
apply of water te the present works
must be charged against the project
te retain them. There may be reasons te
'forbid the use of water power at the pro
posed station, but we de net knew them,
and seemingly the use et that pew er would
be Judicious.
Anether consideration te be taken into
account is the manufacture of the city's
electric light. "We de net knew why It
would net be advantageous for It te supply
Ma light, when it has two water powers en
tbe Conestoga, beside the steam of its
"water works plant.
The city will doubtless desire Mr. Crees
te furnish detailed plans, embodying the
suggestions which he makes, with accurate
estimates et the cost, and it certainly will
be well te submit the question of providing
for the electric light plant, for his consid
eration. What it Would Mean.
The land theory held by Dr. McGlynn
teaches that all increase in the value of
lands belongs te the people and should be
enjoyed In common, that beyond the first
cost the interest of the owner in it should
net extend. This is one of the details
whereon the Geerge theory runs ngreund,
and it takes .very little thought te show its
impractical and visionary character.
The Philadelphia 'Hints very pertinently

S ana 11 ene was set against me ether there
would be a very, small balance left for the

give their support from purely selfish mo me

At tbe BwKtng of the school beard, last
erenlng, the report of the text book com'
mittee was presented, and it Is an unu
sually Interesting paper. It calls ferttie
abolition of a text book in . Iijt siolefry In all
schools below the grammar school grade,
the discontinuance of the stu Jjr of trigo
nometry in the girls' high school, and the
discontinuance of the study of moral
science in both high schools. The first
change was unanimously adopted, and the
ether two will be considered later, as they
involve a change of rules.
This action is important, as showing
that Lancaster's school beard is determined
te sternly set its face against the Iniqui
tous practice of taking pupils by the threat
and cramming knowledge into their al
ready overburdened little head). The na
ture of the questions required te be an
swered in physiology, plainly shows that
tee much was expected from the
pupils ; n physician member of the

medical diplomas could scarcely be I

beard has property there which will be
well utilized in this way, and an uncom
fortable strain will be taken off the new
overcrowded schools of that quarter.
The school beard contains a live body of
progressive men, and It is a pleasure te
find them keeping step with the rapid
march onward and upward that this com

it should be, and no institution appealing te

In this time of tree planting, these remarks
en me Deanuiiu Norway spruce win be e:
interest te all who are employed In arboricul arbericul
ture: Prof. C. S. Sargent, In his valuable notes
en tree planting, published ty tbe Massachu
setts beard of agriculture, makes tbe remark
that It has proved a complete failure In east
ern America' and that 'It has passed its
frlme here, and is almost decrepit before It
s half a century old.' He admits that It is
cheaply raised and easily transplanted ; that
the veung plants crew with surnrlsinir raD-
Idlty and vigor, and are hardly surpas-jed in
grace and beauty by tbe young of any ether
of tbe spruces wblcb will thrive in our
climate. But be regards Its Introduction as a
publie misfortune,' becausa iuterferieg with
the cultivation of such trees at tbe wblte

The Germantown National bank, besides its

t ends ail around te the city of Uangchew,
-ites a correspondent, 1 could but be struck
! i-'111 J1"1 Jh8, w' which prevailed
1 everywhere. The farm houses of China, or at
at0 n t et ChlnlliWere medeu
of what farm beuses Bbeuld be. I bad ex
pected te see squalor aud wretchedness, and
was HI prepared for what I really beheld.
Exceedingly geed gardening I was of course
prepared lor,fer Chinese gardening is synony
mous with everything tbat is neat and pro
ductive. But tbe orchards and mulberry
trees all beautifully trimmed, with the brick
built and excellent houses half-bidden away
In tbem, certainly astonished me. I chanced
te land from my hnuxe-beat frequently in
order te sheet woodcock for it was winter
time when I passed through the district.
Te get these birds It was necessary te scram
ble ever the fields and through the mulberry
orchards of the district, and 1 was simply
amazed te see hew beautifully tbe groves
of trees were kept. Underneath great quan
tities or vegetaules grown, net a feet of earth
appeared te be w as ed, and every inch was in
tbe most superb order. Had the whole coun
try been sutt garden, It could net have been
better tended aud cared for. There were net
hereabouts any hedges or watlr, the fields
were divided irem each ether by deep dykes
which sened the double purpose of mark
ing out the land and Irrigating or dralniug
as the case mlgbt be, the adjacent seli. Tbe
trees, ei wblcb there were myriads, were all
planted with mathematical exactness and in
the greatest order, unlike the trees in many
English orchards, wblcb seem te have been
stuck in the ground with a view et wasting
aa much space as possible. And as for the
trees, they bad all been carefully trimmed te
tbe same pattern, every little bough having
been inspected and cut aa circumstances
chanced te require. I never saw anything
bait se orderly in any country in the world,
for these were no ornamental gardens which
1 was going through, but mulberry orchards
extending ever hundreds of square miles of
country and owned by thousands of dlller
ent husbandmen.

Tbe valu et weed ashes as a fertilizer can
not be denied, since they contain tbe inor
ganic elements of vegetatleu, but there la a
wide dltlerence of opinion regarding their
real value, simply growing out of widely
dlllerent conditions of use, a fact that can also
find its application In all ether kinds of fer
tllizers. Tbe -Maine experiment station has
made an Investigation in the matter of asbes.
anditisfeund that there is a very marked
difference In the composition of asbes et dif
ferent kinds, dump asbes being tbe lowest
grade except leached asbes from which the
potash has been largely drawn. Hard weed
asbes are most valuable, and contain 3 60 per
cent of phosphoric acid. 7 t3 per cent, of
potash soluble in water, and 30 16 par cent, of
lime. The advantage et using potash in the
form as ashes comes from the chemical action
they exert upon tbesell through tbe carbonate
of lime which they contain.
Anether point or consideration Is the re
duced cost of material in tbe form el bard
weed unleacbed ashes. The same elements
of fertility provided by finely ground Seuth
Carolina rock muriate of potash and burned
lime would cost about at the rate of 23 cents
per bushel of asbes. It must be remembered
tbat ashes contain no nitrogen, and hence
cannot be relied upon as complete fertilizers ;
upon light sandy soils they produce excellent
results aud effects tbat are lasting, but upon
wet soils would be of little value.
Weman en tbe Farm
Nellie Burns tu Country Gentleman.
In no ether occupation of men are women
se directly concerned aa In farming. Indeed
a well appointed, prosperous farm la almost
an Impossibility without tbe help et an inter
ested woman. In se many ways aba ad
vances tbe farm's interests. She cooks for
the hired help, and prevents waste in se
much or tbe products. The fruit, poultry
and eggs, with which the uble Is supplied,
are often tbe result of ber tbriit. The dairy
products et America's farms are stupendous.
But it is tbe farmer's wife who attends te the
milk and makes tbe butter, adding se much
te tbe yearly Income of tbe family.
I once knew a farmer's wife, who, In the
rush of harvesting wben help was scarce,
mounted the reaper and harvested all her
husband's grain. I can recall a number of
instances where wives came te tbe rescue In
ouch busy seasons, and helped their hus
bands out of tbetr difficulty.
He tbe farmer's wife is net only a matri
monial partner, but la really a partner In his
business. It is unjust tben that tbe plans
wblcb govern the home and its surroundings
should be exclusively tbe wisbea of tbe far
mer ; while her desires are treated as of lit
tle luiM)rtance.
If tne proceeds from the farm are spent in
purchasing labor saving machinery ter tbe
larmer, It should be spent In buylug the same
ler bis wife. If money is spent in Improving
the barn and stock, it should also be spent iu
making tbe home pleasant and convenient.
This plan et mutual rights aud mutual
benefits from tbe earnings, could but result
In much geed and satUtactlen te both bus.
band and wile.
I onee knew of a farmer who bad a fine
farineriMO acres. But he was net satisfied,
he wanted 600 acres. He said tbat wben be
get that amount of land be would tben spend
money in fixing up the home. They fired
In an old, Inconvenient house, Tbe wife
worked amidst every disadvantage, but net a
dollar could go for com Tort until tbe 000 acres
were bought Tbe Increasing land brought
additional labor te the wile. Hee bad te
work hard and suffer every privation, tbat
her husband mlgbt be tbe owner of many
bread acres. Finally, the land was bought,
but at about tbe same time there was a fune
ral In tbe house. And tbe peer eer worked
wife never knew any of the comfort which
were rightfully hers.
