lIAlilUNIU lt) LETTER.
llARRisnvno, Pa., March 22, 1NC7.
Tho past week 1ms been nno of activity
unil work In ttio legislature, anil n largo
amount of legislation has been acted on
from first reading toinal passage. Tho
House ealpiulnr now embraces upward of
two hundred hills reported from com
mittees, most of which am on second
reading and will nearly nil bo reached in
the coming fortnight. This does not In
clude the two hundred and upward ap
propriation bills in committee and which
will be brought out in a heap some of
these deys. When I state tho number
ol appropriation bills it does not necessa
rily imply that all will be passed for
mxny of them will "go by the board,"
nil will be scaled down very materially
and very few get through that are not
strictly necessary, for tho urgency for
retrenchment and economy is apparent
to all this year.
A new scalp bounty bill went through
on second reading this week, and judg
ing fioin I ho temper of the House when
it was under consideration will have
little trouble on final passage, and thus
our old triend Anthony Walters, who
blamed the writer for "vetoing" tho law
two years ago, (when the courts decided
it unconstitutional) will bo appeased.
Tho bill piovides for a bounty of t-.OO
on wild cats, f 1.00 on foxes, 50 cents on
minks and 25 cents on large weasels,
hawks and owls. I
An act "authorizing the purchase by
tho common wealth of unseated lands for
the non-payment of taxes for the pur
pose of creating a State forest reserva
tion" passed the house finally on Tues
day. The bill puts the State in the same
attitude as an individual as to the pur
chase of these lands when sold by the
county, but it is not permissablo to bid
more than the taxes and costs, and only
on such lands as are valueless for any
thing but the ro-forestiug of the section.
After such purchase the land is the ex
clusive property of the State and shall be
used only in the rearing and cultivation
of forest, tho design being to ultimately
reclaim the denuded hills and valleys
and bring about a state of woodland
growth such as existed thirty to forty
years ago in our section of country. A
consummation devoutly to bo wished.
It will take years to accomplish this, but
a start must be made some time, and fu
ture generations will enjoy the blessings
in which past generations once revelled.
The House did a good act the oilier
day in killing a bill "to establish a legis
lative commission," the design of which
was to create a board at supervisors, so
to speak, which Bhould pass upon and
consent to all proposed legislation before
It could be enacted into law. Throe law
yers were to be appointed by tho Gov
ernor who were to enjoy this extraordi
nary privilege, their terms of office to
extend for ten years and the pay of each
to be $J00 per month while on duty. In
other words, the legislature elected by
the people was asked to say that it was
no longer competent to Judge of what
measures should or should not be enacted
into law, and therefore must call on three
outsiders io give the proper instructions.
Sometimes we think this wouldn't be
such a bad idea but as a rulo it would
hardly be the proper thing for the legis
lature to appoint lor itself a sot of guar
dians.
ine Stewart nsh bill was called up on
Ihursday afternoon and although the
House was rather thinly populated there
were enough preseut to raise the usual
row over legislation of this nature, and a
quite merry tinio was had, resulting in a
hurried adjournment in order to save the
life of the incongruous proposition. The
bill has a few good features but it is so
fearfully "out ot joint" in most respects
as to make it practically worthless. If it
becomes a law in its present form the
gentleman who takes a brook trout less
than six inches in length pays ten dollars
lor his sport or goes to jail one day lor
each dollar of penalty imposed. He who
catches a salmon of loss weight than
three pounds must either throw him, her
"C i;aen into me stream lnstanter or
suffer a like indignity as the unsports
man -like troutor. Other nonsensical re
quirements might be pointed out, but
this will suffice to show what foolish
propositions will creep into the legisla
ture and occasionally become laws. It is
scarcely possible for the bill to pass final
ly unless in a greatly modified form.
Prof. Hamilton appeared before a com
mitteeof the House and Senate Wednes
day evening and talked on what is now
known as the Hamilon road bill. His
lecture was similar to that given before
the farmers' institute a year ago in Tic
nesta. His road bill is u very uood one
in many respects, but has somo features
which will bring radical changes to
many counties in the State and conse
quently will make rural members some
what chany its support. The feature
which requires 50 per cent, of tho road
tax to be paid in cash is stronly opposed
by the farming element, who are already
sorely hampered in getting enough cash
together to meet those taxes which must
be paid in money. The bill further pro
vides that road-masters shall be appoin
ted by the road supervisors, (tho super
visors being about the same as tho road
commissioners under the Forest county
law). Tlie road masters are to havo dis
tricts comprising not more than 20 miles
of road over which they shall have super
vision, and it shall be the duty of such
roadinaster to "work upon the road him
self during at least seven months of each
year." The supervisor "Irom time lo
time shall tlx the wages to be paid per
day tj roadniasters and laborers." Any
taxable may prior to the loth of April in
each year, uotify in writing the supervis
ors of his desiro to work out the one-hall'
part of his road tax, and a failure on tiio
part of any taxpayer to notify the super
visors prior to tho lOtli of April shall be
regarded as a waiver of his right so to do,
and the whole amount shall be collecti
ble in money. The bill is pending in the
Senate and will likeiy como up lor final
action in that body in a short time and be
stilt to tho House.

MRS. AljlCK II. SIOOINS.
Everyone knows the most important
part of tho farm house is the kitchen I
And tho most indispensable factor to the
kichpn Is a good garden, and thpro npver
was a time when there was a greater
nopessity for raising and producing in
dividually that which adds luxuries to
thp table. Tho reason for this Is that In
the last forty ypars wo have built nearly
three hundred thousand miles of railroad,
the grading, tho tics, the iron and tho
rolling stock hail all to bo produced. We
chased (he Indians and thp butlalos from
a vast portion of our territory, and wp
covered the hind with towns and cities,
somo of whi -h exceed in population
more than one million. A rapid growtli
which has never been known elsewhere
on tho face of tho earth. Wp found
a portion of this ground already
cleared and most of it vcrv productive.
It was plowed and sowed with our mod
ern facilities and harvested with machin
ery ol our own invention, which sur
passed everything which before had been
introduced. At prespnt a lady with
gloved hands can reap and bind in a day
more than twenty men could have done
in that length of timo forty years ago.
The rougher portions of this land were
ovpred with sheep and cattle. Mean
time the geniuses of America had
brought iorth tho trolley car, tho bicycle
and in fact a thousand other inventions
which have taken the placo of hand
work. Xo one would think of saying
that wo can find in this land this work lo
do over again in tho next forty years.
This great Internal maket which wo have
enjoyed has produced facilities for man
ufacturing and producing, which, I am
sorry to say, we are unable to maintain
to-day. As wo have lost this labor wo
must turn our attention to producing and
providing for our actual needs. And the
first step in this direction is to have con
nected with every household a produc
tive garden !. It would bo impossible for
mo to dotil all the things necessary to
havo and to do in order to procure a
good garden. But I will mention the
most necessary things and cite you to the
books which will givo you tho fullest
particulars.
The first consideration is a suitablo lo
cation for your garden. If tho ground is
not naturally dry it must be drained,
then properly fertilized. The most suc
cessful gardens we have had have been
tho results of fall plowing, followed by an
early spring plowing which gave the
frost a hance to pulverize the ground
more thoroughly than spring plowing
alone could do. And by this means
many injurious insects are brought to the
surface and cle-troyed by the frosts.
The next thing in order, if possible, is
to have a good seed drill and wheel hoe,
as these will enable one to accomplish
twice tho amount of work in a given
time that he could do with tho old meth
ods. Nearly all of the garden vegetables
can bo put in with the drill, about all can
be worked with tho wheel hoe For this
work we use the Planet Jr. drill and hoe.
Ono must know the most profitable
things to plant and acquaint himself with
tho best varieties. He must be able to
take advantage of tho most improved
vegetables.
But you must not ruin j our gardens by
constantly experimenting with things
advertised by meu who are anxious to
make money at your expense. The
United States Government has now over
fifty experiment colleges located in al
most that many states 'n tho union
which do all tho scientific experiment
work of agriculture that can be required
by a peoplo. They are in reach of every
farmer who will ask for information con
cerning progress or improvements. One
of the best helps published is Bulletin
No. 15, entitled "Handbook of Experi
ment Station Work," which you can oh
tain, free of charge, by addressing the
United States Department of Agrlcul
ture, Washington, D. C. It will be found
to be of great value to farmers, stock-
raisurs and gardeners.
The first Beed to go into the ground are
the-peas early and lato and they must
be planted as soon as the ground is suf
ficiently dry, and if planted early care
must be taken to have them well cov
ered.
Onions may be set about this time.
Some of tho newer varieties are more at
tractive and seem to bo more palatable
and productive.
A few rows of potatoes should be put
in early, and they will require a deeper'
covering than would be necessary later
in the season. They may be Early Hose,
neauiy ot neuron or Karly Ohio or one
of half a dozen other good varieties,

paper and set it endways in a box of
earth. They were then put in a warm
place where growth soon started and they
were set out in three week with roots
well under way ami the new crop was
gotten moro than two weeks earlier by
this treatmtn. About tho middle of last
April we had the sprouts rubbed from
potatoes which had been wintered in a
cellar, and placed in a hole which was
dug in a dry place, three feet deep and
lined with straw. The potatoes wero put
in twelve inches dcep,hoards were lain on
top and earth was thrown in to tho level
of tho ground. Two or thrcu weeks be
fore potatoes wero ready to bo used this
hole was opened and a portion taken out.
It was found tho sprouts had not started
a.'ain and they were of un excellent qual
ity. They wero used in preference to the
now potatoes even alter they were ready
for the tabte.
As soon as hard Irosls are over early
varieties of cabbage may be set out, and
intermediate cabbage may be planted un
til the last of June. Caulillnwer are
put out at this time, curly varieties first,
ily souiu menus this valuable vegetable
has been neglected in this section. Tho
general impression is lliat it is harder to
raise than cabbage. We have not found
it so. hast season we grew thein under
all circumstance, even when neglected
they made line heads. A Iter quite a heavy
frost lust tall wu guthciud lovely white
heads from our garden. This vegetable
when properly pit pared is a delicacy anil

Beans. The production was surprising.
A great many were taken oil' tor table
ise. Two bushels were dried. The
pods being split in two Iciigth-wisu and
boiled ill strong suit water were put near
a stove until sufficiently dry lo bo stored
away in paper bngs for winter's use.
When rnrplully prepared these will be
found to form a very appetizing dish.

he required ot these plants afiin this way
you will be enabled to have tomatoes for
table nso two or threo weeks earlier, as a
few specimens of each stock will ripen
much earlier than the majority, and on
the other hand, one is not compelled to
use p.ny but tho very choicest fruits.
Celery Is a plant Hint has almost uni
versal us". Tho mode of culture Is well
known. Tho so-called self blanching
eel ry has not given general satisfaction.
Corn, squash, turnips, carrots, cuoiim
beis and the liko must not bo neglected
and the cellars will be well storpd in the
fall time with the best a season can afford.
Patches ol raspberries black and red
strawberries, a few currant anl some
goosberry bushes must all bo remem
