SCIENCE IN FAUMINO.
Scientific farming is usually
looked upon with great distrust by
practical farmers, and perhaps
with a good reason. But science
has accomplished much for agri
culture and is destined to do much
more. Prof. Shaler says that in
agriculture the effects of pure
science are less conspicuous than
in the other arts; indeed, we may
say that they have been less
efficient than in any other division
of human industry. The reasons
for this are plain. The conditions
under which the fanner works
have been the subject of a practical
examination on a large scale for a
longer time than those in any other
department of industry. They de
jend in the main on the natm e of
organic life, on the original com
position of soils, and on the
uncontrollable element of climate.
It is easily to be seen that the
methods of a laboratory and of pure
science in general have already
done much to help the tiller in his
tasks, and that there is a promise
of larger profits in the time to
come. From the biologist the
breeder of animals has learned
how to deal with a number of
destructive diseases. The re
searches of Pasteur have alone
been sufficient to enable him to
deal with certain very serious ma
ladies. The method of inoculation
to prevent the ravages of an in
fectious disease has enabled the
?heep-breeders of Australia to con
tend against the malady which
promises to make their industiy
unprofitable. By similar studies
into the diseases which affect silk
worms, he has afforded an adnv
able protection to the interests f
those engaged in that vast indust ry
aud if his conclusions concerning
hydrophobia are borne out by
further inquiry he will remove one
of the terrors that now beset life.
The scientific treatment of the
ordinary diseases which affect
animals has vastly redounded to
the advantage of our stock
breeders. It is chiefly in matters
which concern the management of
the soil that science has done
service to the tiller. The progress
of chemical knowledge has enabled
us to determine with accuracy the
a mount of waste which is brought
about by crops o different charac
ter and the methods by which the
loss can most easily be replaced

So much depends upon the
mechanical condition of the earth
that even where thj chemist finds
i ti:o e substances which should
' give fertility the tiller may have
scant harvest to repay his pains.
! I" is mainly through the .develop
ment of artificial manures that
i chemical skill has come to the aid
! of the farmer.
The subject of education is a
broad one and includes all that
can be stored in the memory of
unman, beings, or acquired by
mental or physical application and
practice. Useful knowledge is
really all that human beings can
acquire and retain. All other tilings
are fleeting and transitory but
knowledge io eternal and unatach
able by outside influences. Farm
ers as a class should acquire and
retain this mofst desirable human
acquisition. Speaking of the
fanner, Charles Dickens said,
"The part which pays
best for cultivation is the small
e: tate within the ring fence of his
skull. Let him begin with the
cultivation of his brains." There
are more ways than, one in which
the fanner, who is too old kr
school can do this, and one of these
is in the exercise of the obseiving
habit. No one is better p'uaated
for such culture and f-i ini'i unify
with the "visible forms" of nature
than the practical farmer.
Tin: claim made by thoe who
favor the democratic theory of
tariff, that the duty on wool b-
restricted the development of the
woolen industry in the United
States, comes with .had grace in
the full light of the fact5 in the
case, which show that the develop
ment, instead of being restricted,
has really been phenomenal. The
census figures show that the pro
duction of woolen goods increased
from $05,590,000 in ISfiO, to $267.
252,000 in 1SS0, or more than three
hundred p :r cent, while the in
crease in the production of cotton
goods of which the raw material
is free was only seventy per cent,
the figures being $115,081,774 in
1800 and $102,773,000 in 1SS0 in
the latter field of industry.
Two facts seem to be undeniable,
in relation to the bond buying
question. One is that whenever
the secretary o: the treasury has
gone into the market to buy that
no trouble was experienced in pro
curing the bonds at market value
that is just the price that any
individual or corporation would
have to pay for them and no more.
The other is that in making the
p irehases the financial transactio s
of the country have been invari
ably bettered instead of disturbed.
Taking these two facts into consic
eration tin- wisdom of purchasing
bonds to the full extent of funds
available for that purpose cann t
be questioned.
The Agrieultut.ti Department is
organizing five rew experimental
stations for the study of sorghum
and its manipulation three in
Kansas, one in New Jersey, and
one in Louisiana. The appropria
tion for this work this year is said
to be $100,000 larger than it has
ever been before,
