REPUBLICAN PLATFORM.

Adopted at Minneapolis, Sept. 10th, 1874.
We, misrepresentation of the Republican
party Of Minnesota, in State Convention as
sembled, do hereby adopt and declare the
following:
RESOLVED, That while reafirming the prin-
ciples and renewing the pledges enunciated
and given by the Republican party in its
last State and National Conventions, and
recognizing the ability and general fidelity
which have mnrked both State and nation
al administrations in the discharge of the
public trusts respectively committed to
them, we can point with especial pride to
the firm maintenance of our foreign rela-
tons upon the basis of justice and right,
and such as has secured respect and friend
ship abroad and peace and confidence at
home the judicious enforcement of all
laws having for their object the protection
of all classes of our citizens both North and
South in their just, civil and political
rights, and the whole country against the
perils of instruction and new rebellion,
the preservation of the public faith and the
constant improvement of the public credit !;
the reduction of the public debt and the
consequent removal of the burdens of tax
alton; the preservation of sound currency
against any ruinous initiation inspired by
speculative interests, which may be hailed
as sure guarantee Of the earliest possible
return to specie. payment consistent with
the just rights of both the debtor and credi-
tor classes Of. our people; and above all
the constant vigilance manifested in hunt
ing out and exposing to public condemna-
tinn Holinnnorf nf 1o1a 10 on1
Office wherever and whenever found, re-
gardless of supposed party interests and
party relations, and the correction of all
abuses as fast as discovered its prompt re-
Spouse to the popular demand by the repeal
of the Congressional salary bill and other
obnoxious legislation, and its readiness to
grapple with new issues growing out of the
relations of corporate power and produc-
tive industry by the Inauguration of meas
ures looking to the protection of the latter
against all unjust encroachments of the for
mer, and by the opening up of new and
cheaper channels of communication by wa
ter between the granaries Of the West and
the markets of the East, as sure guarantees
that the grand old party that saved the
country is still true to the principles that
gave it birth, in hearty SYM athy with the
popular will; able and willing to admins
ter the government in the interests of an
enlightened economy and just regard to
the public welfare, and is worthy the conf
dence and support of the people,
Resolved, That we heartily approve of the
action of Governor Davis in relation to the
prosecution of the persons charged by the
report of the Senate committee with de-,
frauding the school fund.

COMFORTS AND LUXURIES OF THE
FARM.

There is class of farmers who
are living only to grasp more acres,
Their farms can never be large
enoug b, nor can their workmen or
Themselves ever do quite enough
work. They cannot be satisfied with
the income of q farm, nor could they
be with that of any other business
But those who understand that the
highest object of labor is not simply
to make money, but to provide the
largest amount of the means of i'm
provement and innocent enjoyment
the world affords, can make the pur-
suit of agriculture furnish more lux
uries that really contribute to our
well-being, than any other employ
ment requiring an equal amount Of
capital. Their farms are not so large
as to make slaves of themselves and
their sons, and their wives and daugh-
tiers are not worn out with incessant
drudgery. Their door-yards blossom
with flowers, their tables are supplied
with many varieties Of well-grown
delicious fruit, their houses are made
cheerful by the influence Of books
and music, and a taste for the pure
and innocent enjoyments of life is de-
veloped in their children. Here and
there farmers home exemplifes oil
the contentment and happiness posi-
blesto a race doomed to labor and
disappointment.-ProcticalF Farmer.

NDISPUTABLE EVIDENCE.

R. V. PIERCE, M. D. Buffalo, N.
vi wish to add my testimony to
the wonderful curative properties of
your Alt. Ext, or Golden Medical
Discovery. have taken great in
terest in this medicine since I first
used it. I was badly afflicted with
dyspepsia, liver deranged and an al
most perfect pertract prostration of
the nervous system. So rapid and
complete did the Discovery effect
perfect cure that it seemed more like
magic and a perfect wonder to myself,
and since that time we have never
been without bottle of the Discov-
cry and Purgative Pellets in the
house. They are solid, sound fami-
ly physician in the house and ready
at all times to fly to the relief of sick
ness-without charge. We have
never had doctor in the house since
we first began the use of your Pellets
and Discovery. l have recommen-
ded the use Of these medicines in sew
eral severe and complicated cases
arising from, as l thought, an i'm
pure state of the blood, and in no one
case have they failed to more than
accomplish all they are claimed to do.
l will only mention one case as re-
markable, (though l could give you
dozens). Henry Roster, furniture
dealer, Of this place, who was one Of
the most pitiful objects ever seen, his
face swollen out of shape, scales and
eruptions without end, extending to
his body, which was completely cov-
cred with blotches and scales. Moth
thing that he took seemed to effect it
particle. I finally induced him to
try a few bottles Of the Golden Medi-
cal Discovery, with daily use of the
Pellets, assuring him it would surely
cure him. He commenced its use
some six weeks since, taking two
Pellets each night for week, then
one each night, and the Discovery as
directed. The result is, to-day his
skin is perfectly smooth and the scaly
eruption are gone. He has taken
some seven or eight bottles in all, and
considers himself cured. This case
had battied the skill of our best ply
slcians. Messrs. Dunsford & Co.,
druggists, Of this place, are selling
largely Of your medicines and the
demand steadily increases, and they
give perfect satisfaction in every ease.

DIFFERENTIATION or B az !.

A correspondent Of the Country
Gentleman says: 1--WE moved into a
frame house, about two years old, and
my CONSERVATION was very great to
find it thoroughly stocked with these
pests there was not a crack or crew
ice that was free; they were under
the base boards and over them. After
fighting them eight years I learned
from girl that had served as a
chamber-maid in a large boarding
house that bugs can be entirely ex-
terminated for all time. I immedi-
ately followed her direction, which
was to take grease that was cooked
out Of salt pork, to melt it, and to
keep it melted (the vessel can be kept
in a pan of coals) and to put it with
the feather end of quill in every
place l could find bug. 1t is neces-
sary to see that the bed cords are en-
tirely free from the pests, and l will
warrant there will be no more touble.
1t is more than thirty years since q
bug has been seen in my house."

WHEAT AS STOCK FOOD.

The last number Of the Agricultural
Gaseae, London, says: Wheat has
yielded so abundantly everywhere
this year that it is now one of the
cheapest foods in the market, cheaper
probably than oats or. barley, cheaper
than Indian corn or oiI-cake. It has
been as low as Id per tb before, but
that was when sheep and cattle feed
ing was not generally carried on so
literally Dis it is now. No doubt how
ever, many Of our readers have had
personal experience of modes of using
wheat as cattle food, and can relate
the results of that experience now.
We are certain that if any will do so
during the next few weeks, they will
hinder loss and render useful service,
to which we shall be glad to contri-
butte by placing our columns at their
1e1yice.

REDs-.rUMELY SUGGESTIONS.

The, cold nights Of this month
should remind bee-keepers that rugs,
mats or quilts are needed on all colo
MES. Even the strongest are the bet
ter for this comfortable provision, and
the safety of the weak ones absolutely
depends on it. Examine and be sure
that no hives have combs Of sealed
honey in the center. Ifthere are any,
an exchange may be pro6tably made
between the empty combs of one
colony and the full ones of another.
The entrances of all hives may be
contracted, and mice absolutely shut
out. Though the danger is less now
than in the spring, still it is best to
prevent it. All necessary feeding
must be now, and enough may be
given in two or three days to any
colony to prevent starvation. We
have taken hive filled with comb
without one ounce Of honey, put in a
good swarm of bees, feed them twenty
pounds Of sugar syrup in three days,
had it all taken into the combs and
sealed over, and no colony could win
ter better under any circumstances
than did this one. We do not add
wise this way, as best, by any means );
but suggest it as possible to those who
have colonies that will starve in their
present condition. If a colony has too
few bees, it is useless to feed it unless
it be kept in a warm place and fed
regularly in a small quantity at a
time to keep it increasing in number.
This involves trouble, and may not
pay, but it can be done. Be sure
that you have queen in each hive.
1t is not we'll to disturb bees in this
month, except when they are flying
freely on their own accord. Always
select such days to open hives, and do
it quickly as possible, the less they
are disturbed the better, after the
working season is over. Do not be
afraid Of stings. Bees will not sting
when their honey sacks are full. 1t
you alarm them by rapping on their
hive or with smoke, they will fill their
sacks and will not sting. That is the
whole secret of the matter. If you
are timid, wear wooden mittens, wet
in cold water, on your hands, and
provide piece Of black millinette,
with elastic cord in each end, to slip
over your hat and draw about your
neck. Be quiet and resolute in your
movements and the bees will have no
disposition to modest you. You will
soon gain con6dence.-National Bee
