Paper Money and Gold.

SEATTLE, April oath, 1873.
ED. INTELLIGENCER: There is said
to be two sides to every question. As
you have given to your readers in this
mornings INTELLIGENoER. Senator
Jones rhapsodies over gold, in his great
speech before the L. S. Senate on the
Resumption act, it is no more than jus.

fences quoted by you. found In his re-
view of Senator Jones speech.
quote from said review as follows /:
Paper money is as surely the
measure of effort as gold. 1t teaches
more the habit of honesty, because
credit is allied to honesty, and stimu-
lated by it. Neither gold nor paper
money deals in or tolerates false pre-
fences. Gold is gold, and no more !;
paper money is its representative and
ally. good. if good if base. If
good, it keeps its promise and does not
lie, to any. Whilst gold has seen human
governments perish, paper money has
been saved that humiliating sight.
Paper money in all its vicissitudes, and
through all its conflicts, has constituted
the main spring of human progress, and
every civilized nation who have adopt-
cd it into their monetary systems, have
made astounding progress, and those
who have not aro tur, bla3 So, ,,.oroh,,

1t was just such blows as the forego-
ing, found all the way through Colonel
Fitch's review, that knocked the Gold
god out of Senator Jones, and caused
him to make the following stunning
reply to Senator Morton when that
gentleman interrupted Senator Jones
in his recent speech upon the monetary
system of our Government with the fol-
lowing Interrogation
Senator Morton-You seem to have
changed your views since you made
your great gold speech in 1874.
Senator Jones-Yes. sir; have learn.

Not only Senator Jones. but the peo.

The mortuary statistics of the whole civil

ratio is steadily increasing. It's increasing

TOPICS FOR THE FARM.
Combination OF Farmers

Combination OF Farmers
are among the last to avail themselves
OF the strength that comes of union.
The commission merchants that buy the
farmers crops have their boards of trade
and produce exchanges; the railroads
that carry the produce have their pools.
and other professions maintain trade
associations. But until recently the
farmers have been meeting single-handed
and each for himself the powerful
combinations. A new era has begun
for them, however. They are beginning
to know the Importance of combination
and TO act in some way upon that know
ledge. The Grange is doing much.
although it is scarcely as powerful in
its influences as n board of trade. The
FarmersOlub although restricted mostly
to social intercourse, brings the farm
ers together. The Farmers Alliance
which was organized last winter prom
lses TO be productive of much good.
The Rural Home says with much force !:
Organization ought to do more for the
farmer than to insure a good price for
his grain, or buy his implements at n
traction above, cost. 1t ought to crystal
llZe the vague aspirations he may have
after Improvement; it should take him
out OF the ruts into which he NAV have
settled; it should emphasize his person
ality, and at the same time develop his
appreciation of his class and calling. 1t
should, In short, call out broad class
recognition based upon strong self-as-
sertion, and ultimating in the fullest
and best development For the promo
ton OF class sentiment and progress or
ganlzation is absolutely necessary. We
rejoice to see such spirit of willingness
to cooperate in the new Farmers AL
lance as is manifested throughout the
State. 1t shows that what many feared
could not be had, viz: general organ
lzation of agriculturists, for common
profit, is possible not only, but widely
desired. 1t indicates, as we believe.
that the Alliance is to be not
alone temporarily effective, but
permanently influential. There will
long be occasion for some rcen-
trail means through which agricul-
tnral industry in the State can forcibly
express itself. There should be long in
existence State association in which
all local societies can unite, with broad
purpose to weld local feeling into gen
eral principle, and steadily exaIt the level
OF class conditions. Such means. such
an association we think the Alliance
may become.

Weight of Pigs by Measure Alive

Weight of Pigs by Measure Alive
"A correspondent of an English journal
says: To measure pig, | take the
length from two or three inches behind the
ears-say from where the head is general
ly cut off-to the root of the tail, where a
perpendicular line would fall to form
the end of n cylinder of its length
(glving the head of the neck to form the
other end) and in taking this little
judgment is required, as some vary from
others. Then take the girth behind the
shoulders with piece of Irvine, as the
brlstles are apt to hold the tape from
taking the true girth, which is the most
essential measure. For illustration, /
will take three pigs of different sizes
first, 80 inches girth by 20 inches long
second, 60 by 4S inches, third rs inches
% inches long. l first square the girth
by multiplying it by itself, the product
multiplied by the length, the sum OF
which divided by 46 will give the
weight in pounds. Take the three ex
amples; the actual weight dead was. in
these cases, SO pounds, 403 pounds. 9
pounds, 3 pounds, respectively; but as
NO. was not well fat, \ pound per score
must be allowed, which would make it
y pounds less, or reduce the error TO 4
pound; and, If a pig is extra fat, !
pound per score must be added to the
weight, or the divisor must be 40 very
TAT, and AZ for the lean, instead of 46. so
that IT the number of pounds are taken
as a divisor and the inches by measure
Tor the dividend, the quOtient will be
the true approximating divisor to find
the weight of any other animal of the
same quality and fairness. / will take a
beast, Tor instance, measuring 6 or 8
inches girth, 3 feet long, and supposed
TO weigh ii cwt. alive; 80 is the divisor.
equal AZ pounds per cubic foot by meas
ure, and three-fifths are given as dead TO
live weight for a good fat beast By
girth, feet inches-80; length, feet
inch-61 inches; this would represent
what IS commonly termed a score 3
pounds beast (per qr.) but if the live
weight, l,232 pounds, and 3S4 900 inches
Tor a dividend, that is 3S4 900 divided
by ], 232--3l that is the divisor to find
the live weight of another animal of the
same degree Of fairness and quality.
Therefore, If two or more beasts vary bv
weight and measure, that which takes
the tewest inches 10 the pound must be
the best beast. Therefore beasts may be
classed as very lean, store order, fresh
meaty, TAT, very fat, extra, or, as they
are termed, prize animals. Now. each
one OF these would vary both by measure
and by weight alive, and perhaps might
be represented by A., 90, 81, Sc, &c. to 10
pounds or more per 100. The weight bv
m assure would vary something i'm pro-
portion. Then might not some useful
information be gained by observing a
beast Daee through fheao voriorts st,,a,...
in which they may be reasonably sun
posed to be fattening. The weight Of

prevailing among the poultry in this

A LARGE nose, if of natures making

endured if a product of disease, then
probably it is an efflorescence Of what
the doctors call acne rosaced, which
requires this treatment. The nose
should be well fomented every night
with decoction of marsh-mallows, as
hot as can be borne, the fermentation
being continued for full half an hour.
AS soon as the part is dry, dab it with

Then lay over the nose a piece of lint
dipped in the same, covering the whole
with oiled silk. In the morning wash
with soap and water, and make a single
application of the lotion, to last the
whole day. When the size of the nose
becomes exorbitant it is sometimes
necessary to have it pared down with
the surgeons knife. The lotion above
mentioned is also very effective one for
the removal of pimples from the face
and making the complexion clear"
