Democratic Caucus.

NAsHlNGTON, FGD. 70.
The democratic caucus was called to or
der by Mr.. Lamar who said be had been
requested TO suggest that the caucus ad-
journ until tonight, whereupon member
proposed Saturday night, but the majority
being in favor of continuing the caucus
this afternoon without adjournment.
Mr.. Mcmahon offered resolution that
tomorrow motion be made in the house
inviting the senate to meet the house in
joint convention at one o'clock Monday.
Mr.. Kehr offered substitute that mo-
ton be made in the house inviting the SEN
ate to meet in Joint session tomorrow for
the purpose of proceeding with the count
of the electoral vote.
To this Mr. Neal offered an amendment
which Mr.. Kshr accepted, that after t e
two houses shall haze met in session TO
receive he decision of the commission and
shall have separated to vote thereon, the
house will proceed to discuss the decs n.
An earuert and excited discussion en-
sued in which Hnrd, Southland, McMahon,
Vance, Knott, Sparks and Lane partici-
pa'ed. favorpg delay till to morrow.
Ben Hill, Brown, Westire, Harrison
and Howe, favored inviting the senate TO
meet with the house tomorrow for the
purpose of c. ntinuing the counting of the
vote.
NJ. Kendall counselled calm elaboration
in view of the importance of tie questions
presented.
Mr.. Field spoke briefly stating that he
had prepared two bills, one providing for
the election of president and vice president
ON the first Tuesday in May the presiding
officer Of the seoate to act as president in
the interval between the fourth of March
and that time the other bill providing fer
quo warrauto proceedings so that the re-
spective contestants for the presidency and
vice presidency could go before the United
States supreme court and there present
their claims to the office.
Under the operation of previous question
substitute and amendment to Representa-
tive McMahon's were rejected, ayes Al,
nays &C.
Mr.. McMahon's resolution inviting the
senate to meet the house at one o'clock
Monday was then adopted by about twenty
majority. The reasons given by several
members present for this delay were that
the honse wanted further time for reflec-
ton and to prepare objection to South Car
DINA and other cases. A number of DEM
ocrats who did not sanction delay left the
hall from time to time before the close OF
the proceedings, and others privately sald
after adjournment that they would not be
bound by the caucus as many democrats
had purposely absent9d themselves.
Mr.. Willis will, under the circumstances
oppose the postponement contemplated by
McMahons resolution. No actioa was
taken on Fields two bills. The sixty-siS
democrats who voted for delay, embrace
one-third of the democratic members Of
the house. A large number lad left the
hall for their homes before the caucus, and
claim they did not have sufficient notice Of
the caucus.

Another Victim of the Eagle Bridge
Disaster.

Charles Harmon, the conductor who was
80 seriously injured by the collision on the
Troy and Boston railroad at Eagle Bridge
last week, died Wednesday night at his res
idence in Troy. He had been in a
critical condition for some days past, and
Wednesday DR.. Akin, the attending ply
stefan, discovered that in order TO prevent
modification one of his legs would have to
be amputated. The operation was per-
formed by Drs. Akin, Bontecou, Burton
and Hubbell 1t did not result in saving
the life of the injured man, however, for
he continued sinking rapidly until a late
hour, when he died.

Care Of Pigs.

Get the food ready at night for feed
ing in the morning, and cover it SO that
it will keep warm. Cook the meal thor
oughly for the little pigs, and have it as
free from Jumps as possible. Raw or
half-cooked meal, when fed to young
pigs that are accustomed to cooked
food, will bring on an attack of the
scours. Before pigs are weaned, and
for a week or two. after, they should
have their food as warm as new milk.
One quart Of meal to four quarts of
water will make cruel of the proper
thickness. Give the older pigs cruel
cooled with slops or water, but no more
than they will eat up clean, and give
the younger ones Cruel cooled with milk
until they are old enough to eat itwith-
out. If you have not plenty of milk,
make it 60 as far as possible by giving
the Cruel alone first, and afterward
cruel with a little milk in it. Leave no
food IN the trough; feeding little and
often is the best plan. The pens must
be well ventilated and kept clean. Filth
causes scours and many other diseases.
Dry earth is cheap absorbent. In
whitewashing, put little carbOlic acid in
the whitewash. Clean the troughs with
water mixed with crude carbolic acid.
If this is not done, wash them out with
boiling water. Sows that are nursing
pigs must be fed at least three times a
day. Give very sloppy football corn
meal and half fine middlings. 1t is
not necessary to cook it, but if you cook
it once it must be done every day. Give
two or three mangels daily while they
last. Hogs that have been fed on clover

USEFUL AND SUGGESTIVE.

1T would only require a very small
sum from each man in a county to raise
q fund which, offered in premiums for
rat-tans, would 60 far toward cleaning
out rats, and if combined effort was
made by all the societies of the country
for a few years, rats would cease to be
q nuisance. Let us have more rat
hunts and fewer horse races, and thus
give the boys a chance to win few
honest dollars in premiums at our
county fairs.-Ohi0 Farmer.
The Druggists Circular gives the
following recipe for making a paste
similar to that used on postage stamps
and gummed labels: Dextrine, two
ounces; acetic acid, four drains; alco-
hOl, four drains; water, two and half
ounces. Mix the dextrine, acetic acid,
and water, stirring until thoroughly
mixed; then add alcohol. For attach
ing labels to tin, first rub the surface
with a mixture of muriatic acid and al
cOhol; then apply the label with a very
thin coating of the paste, and it will
adhere almost as well as on glass.
If a dozen men sign a County Treas
urer's bond, with the understanding
that some other person is to sign It
also, and lit is handed over and APP
proved by the Supervisors as good,
without the last man signing it, and
the Treasurer runs away with 1926, 200
of the peoples money, the bond is de-
cided good for nothing. But if farm
er gives his note for coat for $40,
and it is changed by some scoundrel
afterward to $40, and sold to a mod
est, innocent shaver, the farmer is COM
PEELED to pay the whole $40, with costs!

The farmer who relies on wood for
fuel during the winter, and who does
not draw and prepare it before the APP
proach of cold weather, is getting ready
to endure good deal Of discomfort.
He is engaging cold rooms, and late
meals very ndifferently cooked. Years
ago some one started the story that
green wood produced, in burning, more
heat that which was dry or seasoned,
and certain lazy people believed, or
pretended to believe, the story. 1t has,
however, no foundation in fact. If
water is not evaporated from wood by
the influence of the sun, it must be
driven off by heat of the fire. In fact,
u stick of wood is used to dry another
before it is in a condition to be burned.
This causes a most wasteful cOnsump-
ton of fuel, while at best poor and
miserable fire is kept up.-Rural
World.

through the summer are less liable to
disease and fatten faster than others.
After the pasturing season is over a
supply of roots should be provided.
Sugar beets, mangels, rutabagas and
potatoes are all excellent for this pur-
pose. Cut sweet-corn fodder will be
eagerly eaten, as will also such green
crops as oats and pease or barley and
vetches sown together. These or similar
crops should be provided for pigs when
it is not possible to pasture them, and
with this help they may be kept in per-
feet condition in close confinement.
Pigs that are confined should be kept in
dry, well-ventilated pens, provided
with ample facilities for perfect clean
illness. The too common practice of
keeping pigs in manure cellars, and
compelling them to feed upon the ex-
crements of other animals, is abhorrcnt
to all ideas of cleanliness and propriety,
and is productive of disease in the pigs
and to those persons who consume the
pork. 1t is in this way that parasitical
diseases are communicated and fatal
blood disorders are spread.
As soon as corn is ready to harvest
and can be fed with economy, the fat
tening pigs should be put up. Indeed,
it would pay well to have some old
corn on hand for this purpose. It is
dry and more easily digestible than
new corn, and will produce more pork
for the bushel. AS to the benefit from
grinding and cooking, we deem this to
be an open question, upon which the
evidence is insufficient even to give a
clew toward a solution. "Let every
man be fully persuaded in his own
mind" on this point and do as he
thinks best. We do not think it pays
to grind corn at cost of 10 per cent.
nor to cook it a cost of as much more
But we soak the corn in hot water, with
little trouble and no cost, and feed it
when cold and swollen, and when the
pigs have eaten all they will of this
they will eat one or two ears of dry
corn, and then drink quart or two of
thin meal or bran slop, and this helps
to add to their weight. The feeding
should be SO far advanced before cold
weather sets in that the thickly, fat
clothed animal is insensible to cold.
Otherwise food is used up in maintain
ing warmth, and so per cent. of it may
be easily expended in this way.-N. Y
