THE CURRENCY QUESTION.

Among the other subjects of great i'm
portance to the people of this country I
regard as pre-eminent the policy and
measures which are designed to secure
the restoration of the currency to that
normal and healthful condition in which,
by the resumption of specie payments,
our internal trade and foreign commerce
may be brought into harmony with the
system Of exchanges which is based upon
Tie pBecious metals as the,intrinsic mbn-
ey of the world. The public judgment is
that this end should be sought aud COM
passed, ,as speedily and, securely sas the
resources ef.the people and the Wisdom
of their government can accomplish.
There is a much greater degree of una
nimity. than is found -toSconeur.r in the
specific measures which will bring the
country to this desired end, or. the rapid
ity of the steps by which it can be safely
reached. Upon most anxious and de-
liberate examination, which i have felt
il my duty to give to the subject, am
but the more confirmed in the opinion
which expressed in accepting, the NOM
ination for the Presidency, and again
upon my Inauguration, that the policy of
resumption should be pursued BY every
suitable means, and that no legislation

and acts of injustice upon our part, and
the advance of the Indians in civilization
has been slow because the treatment they
received did not permit it to be faster
and more general. We cannot expect
them to improve andto follow our guild
ance unless we keep faith with them IN
respecting the rights they possess, and
unless, instead of depriving them of their
opportunities, we lend them q helping
hand. Ieordially approve the policy re-
garding the management OF Indian al
fairs outlined in the. reports of the Secre-
tary of the Interior, and of the Commls-
sioner of Indian affairs the faithful per-
formance of our promises is the first con-
dition of good understanding with the
Indians. ~ a,,5,. 4aI -, j. t..,- g..
cannot too urgently recommend to
Congress that prompt and liberal provis-
ion be made for the. conscientious fulfil
ment of all engagements entered into by
the Government with the; Indian tribes;
to withhold the means necessary for the
performance of a promise is, always false
economy, and is apt to prove disastrous
in its consequences. Especial care is re-
commended to provide. for Indians set
tied on their reservations, cattle and ag-
riculturalj implements to mid them in
whatever efforts they may make to sup
port themselves, and by the establish
ment and maintenance of schools to
bring them under the control of civilized
influences. III. .d.ii -1ol g:sa...t q. -
/. see no reason; why Indians, who can
give satisfactory proof Of having by their
own labor supported their families for q
number Of years, and who are willing TO
detach. themselves from their tribal 7rela-
tions, should not be admitted to the ben

The revolution which recently occurred
in Mexico was followed by the accession
of the successful party to power and the
installation of its Chief General, Porfno
Dias, in the Presidential office. Il has
been the, custom Of the United States
when such changes of goyernmentrhave
heretofore occurred in< Mexico to recog-
nize and. entersiuto official relations with
the de facto government as soon as it
should appear to have the approval of
the Mexican people and, should manifest
"a disposition to; adhere to the obligations

.Eneots Of Forest struction.

The effects of forest-destruction in
Switerzerland in described in a re.
cent Swiss official report: Az late
AS 1912, Conrad Fischer, in describ-
ing the Val Maggia, in the Canton
OF Ticino, from the Village OF So,neo
downward, observes that the valley
is richly cultivated and adorned
with chestnut trees, extending al
most to the foot of the mountain,
which is itself everywhere clad with
vegetation. Two-thirds of the sur
face Of that beautiful valley is now
covered with MASSES of fallen eartl.
and stone. the river carries away the
stoutest bridges, while the overhang-
ing nights are entirely stripped Of
trees. As an instance Of the effect
OF the clearance of forests upon eli
mate, Prot. Landolt refers to the Upper
Engadine, where the slopes are still
wooded, and where the temperature
is milder and more equable than in
the denuded Valleys Of Ayers, Hin

feet lower. Some valleys, indeed,
have become quite uninhabitable
through the distractions of forests,
and the consequen disturbance of
the temperature, as for instance, the
Kalfenserthal. The water supply,
too, is largely affected. Wherever
the woods have been destroyed, the
character of the water basins has
been transformed almost within the
experience Of Il single generation. =
Navigable rivers have become shall
low streams, brooks have been
changed into torrents during one
part of the year, and stony tracts
during the remainder; while lakes
have been converted into presidential
swamps, and fertile plains into arid
deserts.

Short Horns.

A writer in the New York Times
puts the question plainly in saying
that if Il farmer is raising cattle for
beef, and he can add 200 pounds to
the carcass of each by the time it is
ready for the SHAMELESS, by the use
Of short horn bull, 1t will certain.
ly be profitable for him to pay a
good price for such a bull. And yet
this is the average result of using
thoroughbred bulls on the native
cows of the country, as estimated by
all the best stock breeders. All the
200 pounds is clear gain, for it is
produced with no greater consump-
ton Of food. If the use of thor.
oughbred ram on flock of common
ewes will increase the weight of the
fleece one pound on the average, GER
tainly more than ''tive in hundred
could make it pay" whether more
than l in 5 would or would not, is
another question. And so with hogs.
Th difference between the common
"woods" breed of the past, and the
improved breeds ofto-day, is beyond
comparison.

How to Tell the Ages of Sheep.


The following simple rule for de.
termining the age of sheep will be OF
use /" the breeder and dealer: A
lamb has eight small teeth on the
lower jaw called the sucking teeth,
after it is a year old the two center
ones come out and two wider teeth
fill their places; after the second
year, a similar change takes place,
and this change is repeated until the
end of the fourth year, two coming
out yearly until the eight small are
replaced by the same number OF
wide, short teeth setting closely to.
gether. After the age of four the
teeth gradually grow long and mar
row,until with age they loosen and
fall out.
