OUR LONDON LETTER.
OUR LONDON LETTER. (FKOM OUR OWN COTIRKSPOXDEN'T.'I The" zlorious twelfth" is past. And much it means for everybody! To honest truth, London is a very place when everybody is o,t of ic. O.:o can see the size of the streets then. and oi:-> has room to think. The deserted streets of Lhe West are like the streets of poetry and drama. A furtive beauty looks ont on the river, and our country cousins are among the best people in the world. They come here to see us, and talk of the traffic in Fleer-street wlien it is eniitv. They brijig an air of the country with them, and when they tuik of the harvest we always wonder why we stop in these sultry streets. Perhaps it is that we wait for August and September. This year, the "twelfth'' falling on a Sunday, most people who were going North went before. The King has gone to the Continent. His Majesty leit Charing Cross on Tuesday morn- ing for Marienbad, whither the Prime Min- ister had proceeded four days before. Lady CampbeIl-Bannerman was carried from the hotel to the boat in an invalid chair. News has been received in Aberdeen that the Queen will accompany the King on his visit there on September 27th. His Majesty goes, as usual, to stay with Lord and Lady Savile for Don- caster races, and then goes North. We can- not see him in London again for any length of time till October. The King and Queen of Spain have gone to Lord Leith's wonderful castle in Scotland, and the King "will shoot over the Duke of Richmond's moors which Lord Leith rents there. There was a great steaming of express trains full of sportsmen out of the London termini, with dogs, fishing-rods and guns, and other impedimenta. Many trains had to be run in two or three sections. They left behind the London which Dickens describes, during the Long Vacation time, in "Bleak House." We remember how the Judge went down in a white hat to sit in Chambers, and called at the shell-fish shop for oysters and iced ginger-beer by the way. Even the Town- shend case has been cleared out of the way. What the London evening papers would have done without it it is impossible to say. A handsome book of poems has just come out from the pen of the Marchioness. It was very sad news for the average Londoner that Mrs. Craigie. or John Oliver Hobbes," the cleverest of the lady-novelists, had passed away. Her death means more to Londoners than to most people. Here she was known as the author of tlio.se delightful books "The Herb Moon" and "The Serious Wooing," and other popular novels which havtf delighted the fiction-reading public. She was a notable figure in society; a dramatist of genuine talent, as The Ambassador" ehefls; a brilliant and scholarly lecturer, and a philanthii pic worker amongst the East-End poor. Notwithstanding their lack of passion, plays like "The Bishop's Move" and the "Wisdom of the Wise" posse s high merits, of which the: exquisite comedy and power of characterisation are not the least attractive. Mrs. Craigie was in her fortieth year. Her lo3g list of brilliant achievements had led all her friends and admirers to look forward to further good work in the future. In particular a novel which she projected, which was to have dealt with the under world" of Lon- don, was pleasurably anticipated. One feels that, taking it all in all, it has .e,ided as satisfactorily as it possibly could do. "The Marquis has been declared as sane as .>ther people one meets in a day's march, but > little weak in will and over-confiding. He is not the best man to manage his own affairs. And so a benevolent court has decided that his estates will be managed by officials ap- pointed by the Crown. Mr. Justice Bucknill, as a rule, took the summing-up upon very amiable lines. He had, however, some sharp criticisms to pass upon Mr. Sutherst. A Wealthy bride was wanted for the Marquis, and, the Judge pointed out, Mrs. Sutherst put forward her daughter knowing that her husband was an undischarged bankrupt. Mr. Sutherst drew up three agreements, only the marriage agreement being signed before the wedding, and that by the Marquis without that recourse to his family solicitor which the Judge said Mr. Sutherst, as a man of honour and a barrister, should have recommended. "I must say," added Mr. Justice Bucknill, and I say it with every knowledge of the re- sponsibility I have, the conduct of Mr. Sutherst in this matter reflects little credit on himself and on his profession." No news was, perhaps, more important than that at the beginning of this week that the Kaiser would receive two British Royal visits this year. King Edward was to visit the Kaiser at Friedrichshof on Wednesday, this visit to be followed by one from the Du.ke of Connaught, who will "attend the German Army manoeuvres later in the year. It is probable that Mr. Haldane may also witness the German manoeuvres, as the military authorities have invited him to be present. Edward the Peacemaker will havé a most benevolent effect on Anglo-German relations. In itself it is an argument for the reduction of armaments; and the visit of Mr. Haldane —the chiefest apostle of this gospel-to Ger- many later in the year is like another message of peace to the nations. This is all pointing the way to the next Hague Conference, and the friends of peace are hopeful that some good results in the causes of economy and arbitration will very speedily be apparent. The first echo of the sensational education appeal was heard when, at the Hampstead Police-court, about 1,000 summonses against rate defaulters were dealt with. Among them were about twenty passive r,esisters. Dr. John Brown, the former pastor of Bunyan Chapel, at Bedford, declared that the demand for the rate was illegal in the light of the recent de- cision of t Court of Appeal. The decision did not 51 it was illegal," Dr. Weaver, the Chairman, replied, and an order for payment within seve- days followed. With all due respect, I wish to say that if anyone distrains on me after this decision by the Court of Appeal he will lay himself open to legal pro- ceedings for illegal distraint," said Dr. Brown. "The Court of Appeal is a higher court than yours, and it has decided that it is an illegal demand." The Rev. Landell Jones madie a similar protest. The next phase of the case will be ex- tremely interesting. Dr. Horton, the famous Congregational Pastor of the Lyndhurst-road Church at Hampstead, said, as soon as the decision of the Appeal Court was made known, that it became desirable that a further case should be at once raised on be- half of passive resisters, and it looks now as though Dr. Horton's wishes were soon to be realised. The West Riding County Council, it will be remembered, deducted that propor- tion of the salaries of the teachers which might be said to be due for religious teach- ing. Their object was to test the question, which was disputed, whether an Act of Par- liament really compelled a local authority to pay for denominational religious teaching. The Board of Education procured a manda- mus to compel the Council to pay it. and then, when the Council appealed, the higher court decided that the wording of Mr. Bal- four's Act did not actually-however much the Unionist Government might have wished it—provide for such teaching. Thus an en- tirely new turn is given to the education dis- cussion. There is nothing to-day to compel the local authority to give denominational teaching. The Government propose to to!-Q. the matter to the House of Lords, and in the meantime passive resisters, with a certain amount of logic, are protesting that thev cannot legally be asked to pay for what the. law does not provide for. A sad tragedy has claimed wide attention this week. A lady, the wife of a Civil servant in India, was found dead in bed at the Char- ing Cross Hotel with a revolver beside her, her ten-year-old daughter having also been shot by the same weapon. Mrs. Monroe, the mother of the lady, received a strange letter, bidding her farewell, and by the same post a gun-licence was received by a gentleman at Weymouth, on the back of which it was stated that it had been forwarded as a memento. This gentleman denied the rumour connect- ing his name with Mrs. Devonshire's, and said he had never spoken to her. At the in- quest it was stated that Mrs. Devonshire, who had been driven to suicide by unfounded gossip, had suffered from sunstroke and malaria.

It must be remembered that this in- clude- not only water wastes and land incapable of profitable cultivation, but also the area occu- pied by the numerous minor holdings of one acre. or less which are not the subject of annual re- turns. The surface unrecorded in these returns includes likewise a very considerable area with- drawn from cultivation to meet the needs of the rapidly extending urnan population, with its in- ciaental requirements of a yearly augmenting area for residential purposes for recreation and for various commercial, and industrial uses. QUALITY AND CONSTITUENTS OF IILK. T'ae butter-making capacity of a cow must be estimated by the weight of butter she yields, and to obtain this a record must be kept both of the. quantity and of the quality of the milk given. To arrive at her exact value as a butter-mak., s- cow it is necessary, says an expert, to take into consideration both the total yield of butter-fat. and the total milk yield, because the latter has an influence on the total value of the separated milk. The number of pounds of butter which could be made from the total pounds of butter- fat may be estimated by dividing the pounds of butter-fat by 0-96. In other words, a pound of butter can be made from every 0-96 of a pound of butter-fat. The amount of separated milk. in- cluding butter-milk, may be taken as being 95 per cent. of the total milk yield. The cheese-pro- Qucmg capacity of a cow is hi a great measure- also proportional to the amount of butter-fat yielded, because the other milk solids which go- to make cheese, chiefly casein, as a rule rise and fall in accordance with the percentage of fat, and also because the percentage of fat present in cheese largely controls its moisture-holding ca- pacity. But as it occasionally happens that a cow gives milk containing a high percentage of fat. f corresponding increase in the amount ?L s°hds other than fat, it >s necessary that the cheese-making dairy farmer should take into- consideration the percentage of "solids not fat contained in the milk yielded by each of his cows. LIECULATION OF WATEE IX SOIL. Water is a prime necessity of life to plants, and in countries where there is plenty of rain and a warm climate vegetation is always the most active. Plants will-even grow in water. The question is, therefore, a natural one—Why remove the water from a soil? The fact is that it is stagnant water which is bad for crops. When land is wet it is because this water Ill. unable to escape, and, therefore, becomes stag- nant, or still. Now, if land is full of water, it can hold no more, and fresh rain water cannot enter it. A soil which is wet compels the rain to run over it instead of through it, and hence cannot obtain the advantage of rain. If, how- ever, the soil is drained, or can get rid of ite. water, it can then receive the benefit of every shower, or of steady rain. Stagnant water is like the dog in the manger, which would neither get out himself nor allow anyone else to come near and use it. It is clear that more water will pass into and through a drained soil than tnrough one which is always full of pent-up or imprisoned water. DISEASES OF ANIMALS. In the report of the Board of Agriculture on the diseases of animals of the farm, it is stated that swine fever has shrunk into comparatively small account. At the same time, the fact re- mains that during last year the disease existed in ] fifty-eight counties, in which were 817 outbreaks, involving the slaughter of 5,875 swine: but in 1901 four times as many pigs were killed. The report says that a careful review of the present position of the disease has led the Board to the opinion that the policy of grouping together the districts of local authorities, for the purpose of restrictions relating to the movement of swine, should be further developed. Since 1S01 improve- ment has been manifested in all parts of the country. In respect to sheep scab, there was last year a decrease in the number of outbreaks in England and Wales, but an increase in Scotland. The report states that the greatest decrease in the prevalence of the disease occurred in the first quarter of the year. and cannot, therefore, be attributed to the operations of the Board under the Sheep Scab Orders issued in the spring of the year, since the Orders only came into foroe on April 3rd last, nor to the compulsory dipping en- forced in the autumn months of 1905. The figures for that quarter appear to support the view that general interest was aroused by the passing of the Diseases of Animals Act of 1903. under which powers to prescribe the dipping of sheep, irrespective of the presence or otherwise of sheep scab, were conferred upon the Board, and also by the report of the Departmental Com- mittee appointed to investigate certain questions connected with the treatment and dipping of sheep, which were issued early in the autumn of 1904. and to a very considerable increase in the practice of dipping sheep, and that the decline in the number of outbreaks of sheep scab may in a large measure be due to such an alteration in the practice of flock-masters. The compulsory dip- ping order was made in parts of Cumberland and in various districts of Wales. The opera- tions have resulted in the practical extermination of sheep scab on the mountain*, and shew what can be effected by energetic local action. Dur- ing the year there were 970 outbreaks of anthrax, against 1,049 in 1904. INORGANIC ELEMENTS IX FOOD. Most foods supply a. sufficient quantity of the- ash ingredients which are required for the for- mation of bone and muscle. The chief of these are phosphoric acid, lime, and potash. The oil- cakes and bran are the foods richest in phos- phoric acid; straw and meadow hay are the foods poorest in this constituent. Lime is most abundant in clover, hay, bean straw, and turnips, and occurs in least quantity in the cereal grains and in potatoes. Potash is abundant in roots, hay, bean straw, bran, and oil-cake, and is found in smallest quantity in the cereal grains. The proportion of phosphoric acid and potash in vari- ous foods is shewn in tables published in agricul- tural almanacks, &c. Of all the ash constituents lime and soda are probably the* most deficient. Maize is. of all ordinary foods, the poorest in lime. It certainly contains too small an amount for a rapidly-growing animal. At Rothamsted a mixture of coal-ashes, common "salt, and super- phosphate was used with advantage in the case of young pigs fed solely on maize. In the United States it has been found advantageous to give ground bones when maize alone is used. It must be recollected, however, that animals will gener- ally receive no inconsiderable amount of lime in their drinking-water. THE POWER OF LAND. We should recognise the power land possesses under good management of maintaining itself in good condition, and especially of preserving unimpaired the stores on which its fertility de- pends. The need of providing for the self- maintenance of a soil by good management of the home resources is not of less urgency now that we have helps in auxiliary manures such as were formerly unknown to us. In economical agriculture the question will be always im- portant. The alternatives of maintaining fer- tility by the purchase of auxiliary manures or- by purchases of food for live stock and the arti- ficial enrichment of their manure is also one of the most interesting for the farmer. The latter plan, which now forms part of all good farm management, is theoretically and practically more enduring than fertilising the soil by the use of artificial manure, but neithe^ of these alterna- tives will be justified by results except under high farming, or during a period of high prices. FREQUENT CHOPPING. Farmers should take a lesson from gardeners in one respect. The latter no sooner lift one crop than they plant another, and this goes on all the year round. It is a mistake to suppose that even in the highest lying arable district of this country a winter crop cannot be grown. Winter vetches, rye, rape, kale, and cabbage will grow On any of the arable land in those islands if the soil is in good condition, and if sown early onough will be found very remunerative too, for Bring feeding, while they can be fed off OP vared in time to take a summer crop.
