The farmers here lost great deal Of
faith in Iowa, as well as money, by the
corn.crop failure. For two consecutive
years the corn has failed, and panic is
predicted, il the third year proves as the
two preceding. Corn, oats and spring
wheat are the staple products here, and II
is noticeable fact that when there is a
poor corn crop, wheat and oats are best.

Speaking of wind reminds me that per

There are poor scrubs among our com

TIE DAIRY.

The cow must not be fed on roots
or tubers that are decayed. A very
small quantity of decayed potatoes or
beets will in,ect the milk with . taint
that will prevent getting high price
for the butter.
Cows must have pure water at all
times of the year. Without IL the making
of fine butter cannot be expected.
Yet there are many farmers who allow
their COWS to drink at stagnant pools or
from still more stagnant tubs. Ii is on
these seemingly little points that the
difference between an average and o
high or fancy price often depends. The
best cow in the world will make poor
butter under unfavorable conditions.
AT the convention Of the Vermont
Dairymen's Association Mr.. NJ. W.
Davis, member of the State Board Of
Agriculture, said there are not over
fifteen dairymen in the State who are
making an average of 800 pounds Of
butter per COW annually from their en-
tire herds. This is a capital showing
for Vermont, and the officials of other
States would be doing a good thing if
they would collect similar statistics.
After churning at the proper tenn
porature (about sixty degrees), care
must be used in working the butter.
Avoid spatting or smoothing it; this
destroys the grain and makes it salvy.
Wash out all the buttermilk and salt it,
less for immediate use than for keep
ing. An ounce to the pound is the old
rule and a good one; but fer butter that
is to he consumed within five or six
days, many claim that half an ounce of
salt is sufficient. Use the best ashttubs
for packing, and when packed keep in
q cool place until marketed.

ssPauppr Labor"

Like our young friend Cavett we're
somewhat shocked and panied to hear
that Sam Cary and Irve DUNCAN
found women in their bare feet in
Jackson County. 1t is always shock
ing to see a barefooted woman, and
that Cary found his barefooted woman
out behind an ore-drift, makes it all
the more shocking. Then the states
men found ore-banks at which men
we're making but twenty-five cents a
day, in scrip, and this princely sum
was paid by Democratic employers.
Feeling keenly the stigma cast upon
our County by such horrible condi-
ton of things, we started out few
days ago for walk, and went by an
ore bank, owned by Democrat, right
in sight of the Jackson Court House.
Now note closely our statements, for
they are just as truthful as those of
the other fellows: Living in sight OF
Of this bank are many families of
people, all dependent upon their daily
toll for support, and not one Of them
making SO much as 124 cents per day
digging ore. The reason of it is, they
don't dig ore, and there is no one dig
ging ore at that bank. We scrutiniz.
ed carefully, and we didn't see wo.
mans bare feet sticking out anywhere
about the bank.

When our old friend John l.
Moore was making Temperance
speeches last year, he f.elingly mad
the statement that there were 395
paupers in our County 1nfirmary, and
that they were mostly brought there
by intoxicating liquors. On Saturda,
night, October 11th. 1884, in speecll
at the town house in Scioto township
he said-if our Reporter heard hin'
correctly-that there were, in 1888
395, and in 1884. 695 paupers in the
County Infirmary. and that the cause
of this large number Of unfortunates
being kept at the public expense was
Republican misrule.
Now let us turn the light of truth
on this old fraud: The highest number
ever reached in the County Infrmary
was lis, we believe i'll 1877, during II
great depression in business, or in
other words, "hard times" There has
never been that many in the lnfirm-
ary any year since that time. The
number at present in the Infirmary Is
70. Mr.. Harbarger, the Superintend-
ent, some time ago made report of
expenditures fol the relief of the poor.
and gave the mum Der of all who had
been reported up from the townships.
This included temporary relief, such
as buying coffins for poor children
who died, and like expenses. But
there has been nothing to show that
there was any such mum Der of pauper~
in the Infrmary as Mr.. Moore stated.
We are surprised that any man pre-
tending to respectability would engage
in such practices as Mr.. Moore has
been guilty of. A manly, truthful
campaign, would have been better for
himself and his party. But he has
preferred to get down on all fours and
root filth with the hogs.

The Result I'm Ohio.

General James S. Robinson, candi-
date for Secretary of State on the Re-
publican ticket, and Newman. candi-
| date for the same office Oh the Demo-
cratic ticket, were respectively y claimed
to be the representative of each party.
The only votes reported. therefore,
were for the Secretary of State. This
WAS sharp practice on the part Of the
Democrats. They made an assault
upon Robinson and undertook to COM
blne the saloon inhurnce against him.
In that way they hoped to defeat
Robinson and claim the State for the
Democrats. They were in part sue
cessful. Robinson Was not defeated,
it is true, but he was the lowest man
on the ticket. However, the figures
for Robinson are misleading. The
true test of the Republican strength
in the State is the vote for Fllckinger
for Board Of Public Works. He was
not scratched. Every Republican, or
almost every Republican voted for
him. The vote for Congressman was
also fair test. Every man who vot-
ed for Flickinger and for Republican
COu STSSStuhu. Will uuuuuDIeuiy NOJe
for Blaine and Logan. To find out
how Ohio stands therefore we must
look at these figures. The pluralities
were as follows:
Robinson. Secretary of State. 1921
FIckiny+r. Board 6f Public Works 476
Net Republican Congressional majority 1915
The fairest test, perhaps, is the vote
for FiIckinger, as that may also be
relied upon as vote for Blaine and
Logan.
HoadIy's plurality in 1883 was 12,-
$40. The plurality for Robinson this
wear, therefore, shows gain of %, $40:
Flickinger gain of 80, O,125, and the
Congressional majority Il gain Of 81
O67. These are results that must be
quite satisfactory to Republicans and
c.rrr>pondingly discouraging to
Democrats.
In 1880, at the State election, the
Republican plurality was 18.402, and
at the Presidential election the major
ity of Garfield over Hancock was
81, ,227.
If Democrats can extract any COM
fort from these figures they are well
come to 1t. There is no probability
that the plurality for Blaine and Lo-
gan in Ohio will be less than 10000.

The Right Kind of Medicine.

On last "Wednesday evening there
was to be grand torchlight process
ion in Lacrosse, Wisconsin, to cele-
brate the Republican victory in Ohio.
AS Blaine and Logan Club were
drawn up in the street, ready to start
a Democratic ruffilan stepped up
to the Captain. F. A. Burton, and
shot him dead, firing seven shots into
his body. The ruffian was arrested
and hustled into Jail, but the great
procession broke ranks and went for
the Jail with a determination that
would tolerate no foolishness. A
tremendous excitement ensued, fire.
bells rang, people shouted, and torches
glared upon the white plumed aven-
gers. They battered their way into
the cell occupied by the murderer,
dragged him out and hung him to a
tree near by.
We are glad to note this speedy re-
tribution. The spirit Of the Solid
South is just as prevalent in the
North to-day, as it was when the
Northern copperheads used to hold
their Knights Of the Golden Circle
meetings throughout the North, and
there would be no more hesitation in
driving Republicans away from the
polls in Ohio than there is in Mississ-
ippi, were it not that the Democratic
ruffian does not like to look at the eye
of an old soldier over the muzzle of a
revolver or rifle. The cowardly ruff
an who brawls and howls at Republi-
can meetings and professions, would
make good bull-dozer if he was not
a coward. This murderous Spirit is
right here in Jackson County. But
an attempt to give vent to it would
be as roughly handled as it was in
Wisconsin. The only thing to be
done with the Democratic party is to
keep it down.

NOT FAIR.

The city papers. in comparing the vote
in jackson county with Foraker's vote
one year ago, say that there IS a Demo
cratic gain of 25. This is not fair COM
parison. Judge Foraker had p more ma
iority than the balance of the State tick
et. Some Democrats, out of personal
friendship for Mr.. Bundy, voted for his
-son-in-law, Judge Foraker.
The average majority on the State
ticket one year ago Was 677. This year IL
is CSC. or a Republican gain OF H.
