A MONTGOMERYSHIRE CHARGE OF PERJURY. SEQUEL TO A LICENSING CASE. REMARKABLE ALLEGATIONS. At the Ruthin Assizes on Saturday, before Mr Justice Sutton, the whole of the day was spent in trying a charge of perjury against John Ashton Smith (27), labourer, at Llanidloes, on August 29th last. Mr Trevor Lloyd (instructed by Messrs I. and A, Davies, Llanidloes) prosecuted, and Mr Ellis Grif- fith. M.P. (instructed by Mr Martin Woosman), de- fended. The prisoner" pleaded not guilty. The charges arose out of a caso heard before the anid- loes justices, when Thomas Swancott and William Jones were summoned, the former for being on the premises of the Belle Vue Inn during prohibited hours and the latter for keeping open his premises. It transpired that a charge was made against the licensee in August, and a conviction secured, of opening the house during prohibited hours. A man named Thomas Swancott was also convicted for being on the premises. At the hearing before the magis- trates, Smith swore that Swancjtt was a bona-tide lodger, and slept with him in one of the beds in a double-bedded room on the night then in question. For that statement the present proceedings were taken. P.C. Parry said he was at the back of the Belle Vue Inn on the night of July 25th, when he saw Thomus Swancott there. He returned about 12.30, and heard loud talking. He heard Swancott say, Jack, will you have one glass before you go?" and then there was the sound of liquid running into ft vessel in the cellar. Some time later he heard the 80und of someone stumbling up the stairs. That would be about 1.30. There was the sound of voices in the downstairs room, but witness could not hear what was said. After listening a long time lie heard a rather loud voice call Lizzie," and he had no hesitation in saying that it was Swancott's voice. At 4.40 witness heard the sound of people approaching the back door against which he was listening, and he retreated some few yards away. The back door was "pened, and Swancott was let out bv Mrtl Jones. Swancott kissed Mrs Jones while in the doorway, and Mrs Jones shut and fastened the door while the man made for the yard wall, which was seven feet high. When he got on the wall witness challenged him as to why he had been on licensed premises during prohibited hours. His reply was that he had been somewhere, and had called for a pint on his way home. Witness took him back. He asked hilll who let him out of the house, and lie said" Smith." Witness rapped on the door, and it was answered immediately by Mrs Jones. He asked her what she meant by opening during prohibited hours, and she said Swancott had lodged there, and had slept with Smith, who must have let him out. She went upstairs and rourned with Smith, who said lie h;w! nut let Swancott out. Mrs Jones then asked him to say that he did let him out. Dross-examined: Mrs Jones seemed to be fully dressed; she had a blouse and a skirt on, and either boots or slippers. His reason for not knocking at the door when he knew a breach of law was taking place was that he knew if he knocked Swancott could have been got out by either the side or the front door- Mr Griffith About the trickling of beer you heard. Was it beer?—I cannot say; it was liquid running into a vessel. Was it running long?—A few seconds. Yon cannot sav whether it was a pint, or a quart trickle? (Laughter).—1 cannot. Ho added that he was positive Swancott did not hay he had been staving as a lodger. PARTICULARLY LARGE KEYHOLE." Albort dot-el, a photographer, said he had lodged at the Eello Vue for about ten weeks up to July 25th. JIe occupied one bed in a double-bedded room, and the other was occupied by three cuildren. Witness habitually read until two or three in the morning, and on that night he was reading. Between 1.30 and two o'clock he heard a stumble on the stairs, and looking out of his bedroom saw Smith going into Mrs Jones' rooiu. His Lordship; Had you your door open, showing your light? Witness No, my lord. I had blown out the candle. I was inquisitive, and wanted to see who it was. He admitted that he was convicted of an offence some years ago. His Lordship explained to the jury that it was a rule of law that in a case of perjury they must have the evidence of two credible witnesses, hence the importance of the question addressed to the witness by 1>1 r Trevor Lloyd. Witness continued that the landlord was away at the time. Shortly after Smith had entered the room the landlady came up the stairs. She paused on a landing and held a candle in a way that suggested to wit- ness that she was trying to see if witness's bedroom door was shut. Witness had observed Smith through the partly-opened door, but he saw Mrs Jones through » particularly large keyhole in his door. He should say that the keyhole measured two inches by one. After Mrs Jones had been in her room a few minutes he heard her say in a low but clear tone, John, John," and immediately afterwards she came out of the room and went downstairs. Witness presumed that Smith remained in the room. He got back into bad, re-lit his candle and resumed his reading. He then heard voices proceeding from the room im. mediately beneath his, and he had no difficulty in recognising them as those of Mrs Jones and Swan- cott. The sound of the voices continued until nearly three. The children were in bed when witness got up next morning. Cross-examined: He would say the ages of the Children were, the oldest 13 or 14, the next six years, apd the youngest nine months. The baby did not make any noise in the night, nor did his light and Moventolits disturb the children in any way. Mr Griffith: Rather an exciting night?—Yes. And you satisfied your inquisitiveness more than your need of Bleep?—No, I slept, irom three. The baby slept in the room occasionally, the oldest boy acting as a sort of nurse. Mr Griffith The next room—there were only three -was occupied by Miss Morel. Is she your sister?- No, she is no relation. She came the same time as vou to the Belle Vue?— Tes. I was going, and we thought we might as well All go together. Who are all "?—Well, Miss Morel and 1. You had been living in the same hou»e at Newtown? •—Yes. Is Morel the lady's real name?-No, for business purposes. And for business purposes she adopted the same name as youî-Ycs. Is Morel your real name?—No. When did you adopt it?—When I finished my punishment the last time. The last time (surprised). Have you been punished more than once?—Yes. Twice?—Three times. Only three? Just thinlt, now.—Yes, I think only three. On the last occasion there were two charges of theft and embezzlement, but it referred to the lime action. What name were vou convicted under?—Ashby- Hanljn. Witness admitted that he knew a Miss Ashby, of Beitriew, who had thrcle children; that his own wife!, from whom he was separated, had two children, and Miss Morel had one child. He was not married to Miss Morel, but Miss Morel described herself as his wife in the birth certificate. They always occupied separate beds at the Belle Vue, Were you at one time "walking out" with Rose, the sister of Miss Morel?—Yes. And while walking her out you transferred your valued affections to Ivy Morel?-Yes. DRAWING OUT STATEMENTS. Witness admitted writing a letter to a brewery company, to whom the house was tied, on the morn- ing alter the visit of tlio police. In that letter he stated than Swancott engaged a bed for the night and slept with Smith in the bed in which he now swore the children slept. They retired at 10.30, and he remained up finishing some drawings. He wrote that letter at the request of Mrs Junes, to screen her from her husband, who was working in South Wales at the time, and to smooth over matters with the brewery company in the event of any complaint being made. He also wrote out a statement each for Smith and Swancott, so that they could each tell the same tale. The statements were false, but he did nut mind telling a lie ho shield a woman. He added that he had 110 intention of giving evidence on the lines of the statements. lie told Mr and Mrs Jones that if he gave such evidence the police would arrest him. For swindling?—No, for perjury. Ivy Morel said that she lay reading in bed until about three in the morning, when the policeman came. Siie retired about 10.30, and at that time there was only Mrs Jolles and her cousin, Smith, in the downstairs room. Site heard the stumble on the stairs, and could tell from the direction that Whoever stumbled had gone to Mrs Jones' room. This closed the case for the prosecution. THE DEFENCE. The case for the defence was that the happenings on tHe night in question were exactly as described by Morel in the letter lie wrote for Mrs Jones to the brewers, and the statements he prepared for Smith and Swancott. Evidence was given that Smith and Swancott slept together, and that Smith let Swan- cott out to go to his work at 4.40 the next morning, when the policeman caught him on the wall. Prisoner said he was a cousin of Mrs Jones. lIe heard Swancott asli if he could have a bed, and was told he could sleep with him in the double- bedded room. lIe and Swancott slept in the bed in the double-bedded room, and when they went to bed there was no one in tho other bed. The next morning Swancott woke him, and he let Swancott out of the house. At that time Morel was in the other bed. After priso.ier returned to bed Mrs Jones came find rapped at the door, and said there was a police- man. He got up and dressed, and saw the officer, whom he told 11c had let Swancott out. It was Untrue that he was aslied to say in the presence of the officer that he had let Swancott out. Cross-examined When he and Swancott went to bed the y left Mr and Miss Morel and Mrs Jones down- I stairs. The children must have slept with Mrs Jones that night. As a rule they slept in the double-bedded room. Prisoner was often at the Belle Vue, chiefly when Mrs Jones was not there. He had never been In MIS Jones' room in the night time, or when Mrs Jones was not there. Mrs Jones, wife of the licensee, said her husband commenced to work in South Wales in March, and usually came home every three weeks. On the night of Julv 2.ith Swancott came to the house and asked if he cuuld have a bed. He was told he cuuld sleep with Smith in one of the beds in the double-bedded room, and as near as she could tell they went to bed at 10.30. Miss Morel and witness retired soon afterwards, and Morel went to the dining-room. The two older children usually siept in the bed in which 8m ith and Swancott sJppt, but the baby always slept with witness. The next witness knew was kicking on the door, and she went down, who she found the officer there. He did not ask how Swancott camc to be there. She told him that Smith must have let hila out, and the officer then asked for him. She called Smith. She emphatically denied the story of Smith and herself going to her room told by Morel. JV.tn Swantfit'fc gave evidence bearing out the staten.i'iits of prisoner and Airs Jones. Cross examined, he said his reason for climbing the 7ft. wall after leaving the inn was that it was the nearest way home. His Lordship, in the course of his summing-up, said the -evidence of the Morels, standing by itself, was absolutely worthless, and the jury must carefully Consider whether, even with the corroboration of the police nflleer, they could accept it. He had formed the opinion that the constable was absolutely reliable, but his evidence was not sufficient. The jury, after a quarter of an hour's delibera- tloii. relumed a verdict of Not guilty," and Smith was dJeharged. '1111

Patrick Flynn again appeared before the board with a request that he might depart from tho house and be granted outdoor relief. He said he could do a lit tie (hawking and other odd jobs to keep him going. He had been in the bouse three weeks this time. It was stated1 however, that Flvnn had been seen under the influence of drink in Denbigh, and the Board consequently did not fall in with Patrick's suggestion- A BELATED DEMAND. The Olrk .reported the .receipt or a preoept from the Flintshire County Council for £48 in connection, with ropaira mounred by the old Prestatyn School Board. The Clerk explained that 00 had prepared' a supplemental preoept to bs served on the Pres- tatyn overseers, and commented upon the in- convenience of receiving the preoept at such a period when most of the precepts had been issued. In this case, however, the Prestatyn overseers were fortunately able to iiitoiude the amount in the rate they were just making out. SATISFACTORY AUDIT. The Clerk reported the receipt of the report of the District Auditor upon the various offi- cials acooun/ts in the Union and everythiIllg a.p- to be satu-ifacto-ry. STATISTICS- Tho Master reported that there were 136 in mates in the house, as against 129 in the cor- responding period oif last year, whilst since the last Boarod meeting 181 vagrants had been re- lieved, being an increase of 34 on the number relieved last year. The Chairman commented on t.he increase in the number oftramp6 visiting St. Asaph, and thought that the weather was responsible for this. HARVEST FESTIVAL. Tho Master, reported that the harvest festival services at the Workhouse had been most suc- cessful- In addition to the assistance given by the Revs. Herbert Evan,s and D. O. Owen, many had kindly sent fruit, flowers, and corn. The Parish Church Choir also lent their services, and tlhe chapel had been prettily decorated by Miss Grimsley and Miss lIore. A parcel of literature was also acknowledged from Mies lI. G- Graves. The Chairman moved a vote of thanks to the friends mentioned1 in the Master's report, and remarked that it was very gratifying to find that so many people constantly had the welfare of th-o inmates at heart- The Vice-Chairman considered that the Board were particularly indebted to those who arranged the harvest festival- The motion was carried.

ST. ASAPH RURAL DISTHICT (DENBIGH) COUNCIL. ABERGELE RIGHT OF WAY DISPUTE. WATER SUPPLY TOPICS. This body mot on Friday, under the ohair- maiajhip of Mr Bennett Jones- There were also preaent: Messrs Mark Cross, Robt. Da- Vi03, Joihn Roberts. John Jones, William Jones, TVios- Salusbury, Owen Rees. T. U. Jones, lhos. Hughes, YVm. Williams, and Mor- ris Jones. LLANDDULAS WATER SUPPLY. The Clerk read a Letter from the Llamd'dulas Quarries Co., applying for nermksion to take a supply oi water from the Llanddulas main for tradio purposes. To prevent any inconven- ience tü ordinary oonsUiDlürs they proposed to eroot storage tanks ami1 take the water at night time. They wiere the largest ratepayers in the district., and1 were therefore entitled to some oon6id,er,a tiQn. Tho Surveyor (Mr E. O. Evans) said that if permy-i-won were granted the Council would iiave to get the company to sign an agreement giving tho Council power to out the water oil if necessary ait any time, in oase of the supply rumniug short- Tho Clerk pointed out that this was the first year of tlhe supply to LLamdduiks for domestic purposes-, a.nd they had had some difficulty to accomplish this. It Beemed a little too early yet to supply water for trade purposes. Mr Mark Crass 6uggietsted that it would be feasible if the 'pipes were sonaped, because that would ensure a larger flow of water. He moved that this work be carried out, and tha.t, wbon accomplished, the Council reconsidered tbo company's application- M,r T. Salusbury seconded, and the motion was carried. The Council also further considered a letter from the Rhyl Urban Distiiot Council ptating that they were disposed to entertain a proposal f.rom the Rural Council to pay a share of the cost of tihe proposed additional nine down gQd- elwydd'au Hill, which would improvo the Llan- ddulas water supply. On the suggestion of the Chairman, who ob- served that most of them soemjed to understand little of the question, it was decided to appoint a. emalft committee to conifer with the Rlhyl Council on the subject. ABERGELE RIGHT OF WAY DISPUTE. The Clorlc reported that all obstructions in connection with this dispute had now been re- moved.

RHYL LIBERAL ASSOCIATION RE-FORMING THE ORGANISATION. PREPARATIONS FOR THE FUTURE. With tho object of re-forming the Rhyl Liberal Association., which had been dissolved prior to tho last general election a meeting was held in the Liberal Clubrooms on Friday, when tho chau was occupied by Mr Samuel Perks, J.P., who was accorded a hearty reception. The Chairman explained that whenever Liberal Associations were formed, it was necessary, for tho purpose of providing against anything il- legal in th, Act, that the Liberal Association for the time being should dissolve, and their Associa- tion, as they were aware, had been dissolved im. media-tdy beforj the last election. Their re- establishment had been deferred somewhat, but he did not think the cause had suffered is th. tr.tantirng. Thay all knew the result of their dissolution — the tiiumphant result of the last General Election (applause). They should all bo proud of and satisfied with the result of that election. The primary object of the meeting was to re-form that As-ocittion wit'i a. view of reviving themselves, and of producing in the future a similar result. He looked upon every member of that Associa- tion as an association in himself. Each member should oonvey the enthusiasm in his cwn home to his neighbours and friends. He did not think that there was anything to explain with respect to t,he Association more than that the members were expected to do their best to promote Liber- alism in tho truest sense of the word. They must provide for the future. They knew the chang- ing tactics of the Tory party, and he supposed one of their tactics would be to cry that Liberals were Socialists (hear, hear). He could only say himself that if Socialism aimed at benefiting mankind generally and to improve the condition of the working classes, they had nothing to be ashamed of (applause). Capitalists and others when talking of improving the condition of the working classes spoke as if they were conferring some benefit on the working classes. They were, no doubt, to a certain extent. At the same time it must be that the working classes had conferred A GREAT BENEFIT upon them, and they were tho great asset of the country. It was only the result of their labours that wealth was acquired, and he wanted their services to be appreciated by giving back some of the wealth they had assisted to acquire, in order to improve the social condition of the community generally. If that were Socialism, he must say ho was a Socialist—(applause)—because he considered it was a disgrace to a Christian community that they should have honest hard- working people going, cap in hand, to supplicate for a bare existence, at the hands of those who ought to provide it for them. He was not, of course, in favour of encouraging indolence amongst worthless people, but he thought it must be patent to all that there was a need for somo scheme whereby a man who was no longer able to work should be able to assist himself for the rest of his life. If that were Socialism, he was a Socialist. Ho did not associate Socialism with robbery. He did not want to rob anybody, but he thought that Liberals would be in favour of utilising some of tho wealth of the country to- wards the realisation of the ideals he had indica- ted (hear, hear). They had met that evening for the purpose of accomplishing a very formal matter, but formal matters were important in many respects, especially in the courts of justice (laughter). They had met to form themselves into a Rhyl Liberal Association, and he moved that that body be re-formed (applause). RECOLLECTIONS. Mr J. Frimston., in seconding, recalled the fact tihat he was a member of the first Rhyl Liberal Association, when that body was form ed in the early "seventies." Mr Perks was then treasurer, and when after holding that office for some years, Mr Perks resigned, he (tho speaker) had the honour of being appointed in his place. Although they were only a hand- ful of members they (hd an enormous amount of work for too Liberal Party in that town, and Mr Moetyn Williams was then an energetic member (hear, Lear)- Their chairman wa<s an- other. and after hearing him that night, 00 was proud of him, for his was one of the most practical sipeechcs that be had lioard. He was pleased to see M.r PNks in as fine a fighting form as evor. He oould endorse all the Chair- man lhad said- He thought tthat there was little to fear froori) any Tory, either in the Flint Boroughs or the County. They were strong enough to carry the seats with a triumphant majority as they had done in t'he past. IN'ever- ttoalevss he urged them to be equally energetic in the future as in years gone by- The resolution was tlhen put, and' carried unanimousilv. ELECTION OF OFFICERS. Mr J. W. Jones proposed that a president four vioe-presidents, and an executive committee of 21 members be appointed, and that each membar of tlhe Association should pay an an- nual subscription of one shdlirug- He moved tho latter provision for the reason that he tihought that every Liberal v ho identified him- self with the Party ISihoukl undc,rtaK.o somo mea- sure of responsibility. Mr 1. Batho seconded- Mr Joseph Willi amp objected to the age of 21 as being out of proportion for members of the Association. They wanted to got young people into harness- They should get members as soon as they were born (laughter). He would have them registered" thene (laughter), line young wouM have to bear the brunt of the battle, and the proposed that fifteen years be the a.ge limit. On the siig-gostion of the Rev. Dr. Parry, it waa agreed that the age should be 16, that being the age when a person could sign a peti- tion. The motion was then oaxried unanimously. M.r J- W. Jones, in moving that Mr S. Porks be re-eleoted president,, said tihey could have better leader, no ono mare faithful, and no one woos-e earvioes were more deserving of re- cognition- Mr Daniel Evans seconded The Chairman replied tlhat although he was obliged to the mover and seconder for their kinidnees he oould not see his way to accept the presidency. It was time the old hands made way for eome of the younger ones. He felt that ho oould not give that timo and attentioci to the work whidh a younger iman could give. At this stage, Mr J. W. Jones arose and put tJhe resolutMMit) whioh was carried unanimously amicst much enthusiasm and applause. The Chairman remarked that it was rather a summary .way of; dealing with lliim- the eaune time if it weiro their wish and if they were satisfied he would do the best he could in tihe position- Nevertheless he would1 rather see a younger man. as president. The following were elcoted vice-presidents by haMot, and as throe of them tied with tihe same figuivs it was agreed that there ishould be "Ive vioo-presidcinfcs :—Meesrs J. Frimston, 1. Batho, J. Roberts-Jones, Joseph Williams. and Everett. The following- were elected to the Executive Committee: Messrs Wilde, P. Mos- tyn Williams, J. W- Joiies, T. D. Jones. Rev.

Mr Gomor Evans wag re-oleoted secretary, arnd Mr David Owon wag apjjointed treasurer. Before the meeting concluded, tho Chairman expressed a hope that those assembled would bo its ontihusiastic in the future as they were that night, and that they would strenuously fight for their political principles.

TRADERS AND RAILWAY COMPANIES. CONSIGNMENTS UNDER MARK. Much inconvenience, and, sometimes, 1<Y-s is caused to traders by reason of delay iu tfoo de- livery of goods, or of theu- misdelivery. In some instances tho delay or misdelivery 13 the result of negligence on the part ot the railway com- panies' servants; in. others it ia due to iiogiigonco on the part of the servants of tne trader, and in others it is undoubtedly the rosult of iinsufiicient direction. It is of t.he last we desire to say a few words. It is a very general custom to consign goods under mark, and without any address or indication of their destination, so that if a packagc-ets separated from its invoioe. there is no information upon it to oaiablo the railway officials to know what* to do with it. Everyone having the slightest acquaintance with tiie immense volume of traf- fic, involving thousands "df separate consign- mentp passing daily oyer the railway system, will rO.iI tHe possibility of >acRages going astray, and the consequent difficulty of getting them to their proper station owing to the want of address- There are, of course substantial reasons for the practice of consigning goods under mark, but it i8 worth wmle considering whether, whilst maintaining this practice, it is not possible irt a large number of cases to givo some more distinctive indication of the destination of the goods. If it theji, we b3- lieve, that it wiltl not facilitate handling by the railway oompauiee, but save tne trader con- siderable trouble and complaint from his cus- tomers. The suggestion we have to make is that in every pesisibb case consignments under mark should be also marked with the name of the town 0: destination, thus B, Oxford." We believe this would be welcomed by the railway companies, and that if it were generally I adbpted, it would greatly facilitate the distn- bution und delivery of the traffic-

PROPOSED MILITARY CAMP AT ABER. CAMP FOR 6000 MEN. General French, accompanied by several promi- nent military officers, have been inspecting land in tho neighbourhood of Aber, with the view of establishing a camp there for the regulars. The spot has been chosen owing to advantages it offers for mountain manoeuvring, and a camp will be provided for six thousand men.

Dr. T. J. Macnamara, M.P^, will probably create a. record for the holder of his offioe by appearing as a vocalist at a concert in connec- tion with the Camberwell Fayre, to be held next week, in aid of College Hospital Removal Fund.

PRACTICAL/^ ^A^^ULTURE I ByPrimrose McConr\ell,ESc.] flfj (A ulnor of A Notebook of Agricultural Facts and Figures," Elements of Farm- ing," &c.). CROSSES AND HALFBREDS. As an enormous number of Scottish sheep come south of the Border as stores, teggs, or hoggs, it may be interesting to south country readers to know somethiug of their origin. There are two breeds of sheep in Scotland—the Blackface or Mountain Breed and the Cheviot, and as these must be kept pure for breed purposes the special flocks and rams are very keenly looked after. For feeding purposes and the production of store lambs, however, the Border Leices- ter or the Wensleydale (Yorkshire Leices- ter), ram is used for crossing: with the Blackface ewe the lamb is called a Cross- bred or Greyface, and with a Cheviot ewe a "Half-bred" or Whiteface. THE THREE-PAHTS-IJREI) LAMB. It is these Greyfaces and Whitefaces which come south in train loads, and as they are half Scottish and half Leicester they are very hardy and healthy and at the same time have a share of the fattening and wool- bearing power of the sire. Many farmers in the south take these cross or half-bred ewes and cross again with a Suffolk, Hamp- shire, or Shropshire ram, producing a sort of three-parts-bred lamb which fattens quickly and easily and is sold as fat lar b. The writer has not tried this double cross, but is assured by many that it is very suc- cessful, while as he has handled several thousands of the first crosses himself in tho south he can testify to their value. PHOSPHATES. In planning the manuring for next year in the matter of buying artificial manure there arc some aspects of the question which call for comment. Agricultural chemistry has hitherto taught us that out of a dozen manurial ingredients needed by every crop, only three require to be added to the soil in a "complete" manure, because all the others already exist therein in superabund- ance. Those three are nitrogen, phosphoric acid and potash, and all our artificial manu- ring is just a ringing of the changes on the various commercial compounds of these three bodies. A fourth body, lime, is equally im- portant because of its special action on the soil, but the above three are the special ones. The object of this note is to call in question the use of nitrogenous manures, and to point out that we can grow better crops without them, excepting in special cases, such as mangolds, ryegrass, etc. EI-TKCT OF NITROGENOUS MANURES. An ordinary dressing of the farmyard manure made at home supplies a large amount of nitrogen—quite enough for a suc- cession of crops in view of the fact that certain crops manufacture their own nitro- gen like beans and clover. Nitrogenous manures stimulate the growth of leaf and stem, but not of seed, and too much of them causes, lodging in our corn crops. The real and principal want of our soils for all crops is phosphates, and a liberal use of plios- phatic manures will do more to grow good crops than the use of any other kinds. In recent years we have found out that legu- minous plants like beans, clover, etc., get their own nitrogen through the action of certain microbes, and now comes the inti- mation from Prof. Bottomley of King's Col- lege, London, that he has isolated microbes which perform the same service for cereals, and he has found them to be effective in actual trial. Potash and lime are only needed in special cases, and we come back to the one fact therefore that phosphatic manures will give the best all round re- sults, COW FEEDING. A correspondent has written to ask what is the best and cheapest way to feed cows in milk during this coming winter in view of the fact that all feeding stuffs have gone up in value, and that we must feed with home produce as much as possible. If the present writer could answer the question lie would have been a millionaire himself long ago, but there are one or two matters con- cerning it that are worthy of consideration. As already mentioned in this column, the Highland Society found in their milking tests that the food cost of producing a gal- lon of milk varied from 2.59d. to 7.81d. on various farms, valuing the foods at ordin- ary market prices. Obviously the lowest cost meant underfeeding and a poor result otherwise, but on the other hand the high- est figure was wasteful and could be very much reduced. AVERAGE FEEDING. The average worked out at about 3.5d. per gallon of milk yielded. As a cow will aver- age a little over two gallons per day of milk during the season, this means that her daily cost for food should not run to more than 7d. to 7d. The plan to follow, therefore, in the light of these figures is to put a value on the hay, straw, roots, etc., supplied by the farm, add on the cost of the bought-in feeding stuffs, and find how it works out to the amount of milk yielded. If it comcs out too high then the expensive cakes and meals may be reduced, and more home feed given if it comes out too low then a little more cake or meal may be added on. PASTEURIZATION. Another correspondent asks for some ex- planation of the effects of the above process on milk. The usual method is to heat up the milk in a special vessel for the purpose to a temperature of 130° Fah., and keep at this for twenty to thirty minutes, or at 180° F. for five minutes, and then it is cooled rapidly to 60° or lower. This sterilizes the milk as far as the microbes are con- cerned, but it does not kill the germs con- tained in it, and therefore the process re- quires to be repeated in 24 hours again. Pasteurization is practised only in the case of milk and cream intended" for butter- making the evil microbes producing taints-are killed and good ones (giving the proper flavour and ripening power) are introduced in the shape of a starter." WHEN NOT TO BE USED. In the new milk trade neither pasteuriz- ing nor complete sterilizing is a commercial success. The milk acquires an objection- able boiled flavour, and it is not so di- gestible or suitable for children as in its native state, and therefore the majority of people prefer to take their chance with the "raw" milk. Pasteurizing is not suitable for cheesemaking, and ordinary refrigera- tion of the milk will make them keep as long as necessary if it has been originally produced in a fairly sanitary byre and dairy. ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENTS. Worm IT.B.-Worip- on a lawn are best treated by flooding it with lime water. Mix up some fresh lime with water-say a pound to the gallon—and slosh it liberally over the grass, and it will fetch the worms to the top. Sowing Kainit Enquirer.—It does not matter much when you sow kainit, but the best plan is to mix it with slag—say 3 cwt. of kainit and 7 cwt. of slag per acre, and sow it any time now in autumn before the next winter time sets in. When sowed on dry soil the first rain washes it in, and it gives longer time for the slag to dissolve. P.S.—The author will be glad to answer any questions arising out of this article if they are addressed to him, c/o the Editor.

FLINTSHIRE EVENING CLASSES.
