Cur FLowERs-As you are fond of having
flowers in your room, as your garden is far from
your house you will perhaps be glad to know
how to preserve cut flowers long as possible
The most simple rules are, not to put too many
in glass, to change the water every morning,
and to remove every dccayed leaf as soon as it
appears, cutting off the stems occasionally, as
soon AS they show any symptoms of decay. A
more eiiicacious way, however, is 10 put nitrate
oil soda IN the water about as much as can be

Remedy for Smut in Wheat.

Nh. TucKER.-To ascertain the most effcc-
tive remedy for smut in wheat, we tried the fol-
lowing experiments in 1911:
Ten square rods of sandy loan land we divi-
dcd into six equal beds Upon each we sowcd
thrcc-iourths of quart of wheat.

very few balls of smuithe grain being quito clean.

swindling- --msnamed banking. To exquaze
the burdens of taxation, that those Institutions,
and Individuals who enjoy exclusive advantages
may be compelled to pay taxes in proportion to the
advantages, derived from the toleration of their

of taxing their property as that of honest cities

In this contest the Democracy will triumph

NIr. Knapp's Land Bill.

The Bill introduced into the House Of Repre-

with the approval of every paper Of both poti-
cal parties in North Western Ohio. This is the
portion of the State most Immediately, and deep
lyinierested in the sale, and settlements of these
lands; and so far as our knowledge extends there
is but one opinion Of the subject entertained here.
Our Representative has embodied that opinion in
his bill. Will the Legislature do us the justice
to pass that bill into law? Will they do this
Simple act of Justice to the people of the North
West? Will they take means to place the fer

the labor and property of the people. That ene-
my is in solemn league with the swindlers who
gave it EXISTENCE fellow feeling. and design
entertained in common, 10 rob labor of it's reward
and pampsr ideness, have united the creature to
the creator, with ties which the popular VEN
geonce can alone sever. The ties by which the
paper money arstocracy is held together, are an
unholy hatred of the elevation Of men to that
just eduality, demanded by the Democracy, and
asordid meanness which prompts to the sacrifice
lucre.
The enemy against whom we have taken the
field, is destitute of soul, and feeling-of all mo-
raj influences to restrain limit its ravages upon
the rights of the people. A plancy of principle
changing to suit every emergency that may arise,
with steadiness of purpose, to render the mass
es worse than serfs by the creation of chartered
monopolies, and the grant of exclusive privileges
to few, give to the Federal party facilities for
carrying an election by fraud or surprise fright
full to think upon, and calling for all the energy
and vigilance of the Democracy, to guard the
citadel of their rights. 81
We are called upon to meet this enemy, whose
arrogance greater than its victories over the peo-
pie, and the genius of our government Justify
And we will meet it, Yes, and conquer it too.
Have we not truth on our side? Are we not the
advocates of the masses of the people, against the
privileges ofan exclusive few? Do we not battle
for the Consttution-for the currency of the Con-
s,itution-for "equal and exact justic to all men
exclusive rvilegcs to ,none?n Are not all of
our efforts directed to the bringing back of the
government to its primeval simplicity, and repub-
licun purity? And have we not the fathers of
the republic to fight on our side? May we not
invoke the sainted memory of Washington. and
Adams, and Jefferson, and Madison, and Jackson,
and a host of others whose names occupy the
highest niche in the temple of our Republic TO
vindcate our exalted position? The man who
doubts the ultimate triumph of truth, is coward

party is not Democrat, whatever may be his
party name. We must and will succeed A

principles will give us the victory. ~
