In ton states 12,449 bills were introduced, and only 8,303 passed. In 12,906 bills, exclusive of 277 joint tions, were introduced in louscs during the last session, only 1,101 bills, or less than ten per cent. were ssed. Even in states where constitutional restraints exist, the vice of special and loeal legislation Mr, Butler deseribes us still o erying evil. Exelud- ing the appropriation bills for earrying on the government and those intended to cure tive mistakes of former logislatures, he finds that ‘the residuum of measures passed by any state, as well as by con gress, really public in their character, is very insigniticant, not to say ludicrous, in the comparison.’” The expense of all this law-making and these attempts at slation bo estimates at $10,000,00( Yct only one statutoe w passed du the year for the purpose of bringing : reform in legislative methods, the past four years the bulk of the lation of Sonth Carolina has rc private and local interests, only 2 ures out of an_aggregate of ne being of general public concern of these private acts, too, are availed of. -~ There are on the statute books of the state, for mstance, more than 100 railroad charters under which no railroads have ever been built. Accord- ingly the legislature passed at its last ses: sion a bill providing agaist hasty and ill- advised legislative action Mr. Butler reviews the legislation of the year under nine heads, the first of which is the eare and protection of chil- dren. Connecticut has prohibited the employment of children under thirteen in factories. and the playing of games n pool or billiard rooms by minors under sixteen, or their loitering in or about such rooms. Both Massachusetts a New Hampshire prohibited by fine in the first state and $20 in the sceond the selling of eigarettes or tobacco in any form to minors under 16; andin Massachusetts the penalty is also im- posed on any person, except the parents or guardian, who giyes the prohibited articles to sneh a mmor. New Hamp- shire has prolubited, undee fine of %25, the putting up or maintaining of barbed wire fences on any land adjacent to school lots, thus protecting the bodics and the clothes of the youngsters. The same state has prohibited, under penalty of fine ana impritonment, the employment of any minor to sell or give away books, magazin newspapers devoted to the publi or_ illustration of bloodshed, lust or crime. New Jersey forbids, under heavy penaltics, the employment of children under twelve for singing, play- ing on musical mstruments, or any other like ealling to be followed in the streets and highways. Maryland has enacted a cigarette statute similar to that of Ma: sachusetts. Ohio provides against the adulteration of candy, anda Maryland in- cludes cakes also. Michigan forbids fa tory employment as to children under 10, and children under 14 unless they have attended school for at least four months of the year preceding their em ployment. It also requires the provision of seats for female employes when not necessarily engaged in “The child labor bill” in teets cluldren from bemg overwork and Massachusetts inerg 3 the penalties for seduetion and enticement and raises the age of consent from fourteen to cighteen, As to women and the domestic rela- tions, there are only afow enactments, Massachusetts makes the procurement of a fraudulent divorce o érime punishable by fine or imprisonment, and requires libellant who has moved into the state tor tho purposc of procuring a divor have a residence of five years. New sey fixed the term at_three years, M land at two years.

Mississippi makes punishable the teaching of poly induemg to embrace it, and em to other states and territories for the pur- pose of practicing it. Husbands and wives are made, by the same state, com- petent witnesses against each other in all controversies between them, There has now been in Mississippi complote re- moval uf the cornmon law disabilities of ed women Georgia, Kentucky, Maryland, Ohio and Virginia prohibit the sale of mor- phine or any of 1ts salts, unless in_scar let wrapping, with prescribed lnbel, and New dersey and Michigan have' also made pharmacy and the practice ot meddi- 10 the subject of special statutes, and m Georgia the regulations extend to dentists. Legelation with regard to ex- plosives is also general. Mississippi protects travelers who do not smoke by sroviding that the payment of first class lu s shall entitle them to first clase pas sage, which is defined to be in *‘uny suituble ear in which smoking is not allowed.” Michigan requires full and equal accommodations, facilities and privileges for all eitizens alike, of every race and colo publie conveyances, inns, , barber shops, and places of u musement Kentucky punishes professiony gam: blers by fine or imprisonment, makes the nders infamous, und disqualifies them from voting i holding office. Lowa has strengthered one of the most sweep: ing provisions of its prohibitory law. Georgia and Miniml‘)m have passed local option laws. Ohio has levied a digect tax on the ‘proceeds of sales of liquor. Rhode Island passed & sweeping prohibi- tive law, which went into eflect on the first of last July. Connecticut and Iowa require that instruction as to the effects of aicoholic Liquors on the human system shall be given in the public schools, and congress passed a law of the sawne pur- port with respect to the District of Col- umbia, the territories, and the military and naval schools.

New Hampshire has shut out fifty-cig! foreign insurance companies, represent- ing aregate capital of £120,000,000, by its now notorious statute prohibiting all corporations not created by the laws of the state from entering into any com pact for regulating rates of msurance, and providing that in_all cases of total oy fire the insured shall recover the amount expressed in the policy. The conscquence s that the only present means of protection against fire are in the home companios, with n eapital of only £2,000,000. lowa has also placed | n insurance compantes under disabilities.

They use greater skill in feeding and husband the manure better, as well as using economy in every department, He states that our diirymen would cconomize as we! they would make their farms fertile and become wealthier, Hardy bulbs should be transplanted when necessary in the fall,and the earlie in the fall the better. They will do pretty well up to trost, All this applies to Datch bul woll as othors, Halbs like to be rather deep, and to have the soil rather rich and rather damp. It is the low reclaimed mud of Holland which hielps their bulbs quite as much as the skill of the Duteh gardeners, Many farmors believe that potatoes should” be dug as soon as the tops dead; potatoes are certainly not improyed by lying in the ground through the fall ritins-—but when they commence rofting it is better to let them remain in the ground than to dig them and have them decny in the ccllar. Potatoes should not remain in the light for any great length of time, or their eating qualities will be injured, The Poland Chinais the favoriteof the weste farmers, and the Husbandman s it is duc tothe faot that the breed 18 not so closely inbred as are the Berk shires and Bssexs.

The horse that has long perineum, prolonged down from the anus, and thick and short muscles of the thighs, is very strong and & good draft animal. A writer m the London Gardeners' Chronicle has had excellent success the cultivation of chrysanthemums by the usetwice o week of i teaspoonful of sulphate of ammonin in a gallon of water. The effect was marked both in leaf and flower, even contrasted with plants regularly watered with liquid cow manure. The system will apply to plants generally, and will be worth attention in winter window-gardening. The charming cffect of Italian growing vases renders them very populur, says the Farmer's Tribune. The vase should be immersed in water for at least twelye hours, then as goon as taken out of the water, and while it is still wet,cover with the seed by sprinkling 1t on, taking care not to leave any part uncovered; then at once fill it with water, and every morn- ing refill it if the water be decreasing, In a few days the vase will be covercd with a beautifil green folinge.
