A Real Necessity.

We presume there is hardly a lady
to be found in our broad land who, II
she does not already possess sewing
machine, expects some day to become
the owner of one.
But after the mind has been fully
made up to purchase one of. these in
dispcnsable articles. the question
arises as to what kind Of machine
to buy.
1t should be so simply constructed
that the most inexperienced can sue
cessfully operate it. TIE other
points mainly to be considered, and
which are the most desirable, are
durability, rapidity. capacity for
work, ease of operation, regularity OF
motion. uniformity OF tension, and
silence while in operation.
The Light. Running New Home
fills the above requirements, and is
said to combine the good points oT
all sewing machines, with the add.
ton of many new Improvement and
lahorsaving devices.
The price is no higher than that ct
other machines. and every lady who
is the happy possessor of one may
rest assured she has indeed treasure

Is Hav Cheap Food l.?

Most dairymen suppose that hay Is
the chspest food for their cows, and
think it misfortune to be short Of
hay-which is, in a sense, true. for
every one should try to produce ali
the hay required for his stock-but
it is seldom rue that the market
price Of graii. is his her than lay. II
we consider the relative nutritive
value Of hay and grain, or product OF
grain, we find that good meadow hay
or clover is no cheaper at Sl3 or Sl4
per ton than good wheat bran or mid
dlings is at $40 or S24 per ton, or
corn meal at s22 or $23 per ton. or
linseed cake or meal at $50 OF $33 per
ton, Now, this does not mean that
corn meal, middlings, or oil meal
would be just as appropriate for the
complete food Of cow as hay. We
know that such concentrated food
would be quite dangerous to feed a
cow without some coarse fodder;
UuI ~ LICuilS Liide tiiO AttiAihOho IL
these foods will be as cheap to make
up any deficiency in the ration, at
those prices, as hay at the price men,
toned.
Therefore, when hay is dear in the
dairy districts, instead of buying hay
the dairymen should buy grain in
some form to help him out. The
grain will be cheapest, and his COWS
come through in much better condi-
ton for the milking season than if
they had all the good hay they could
eat. All COW requires over twelve
or fifteen pounds of hay should be
made up in grain food. Twelve
pounds of hay and eight pounds OF
middling per day will winter IA
thousand pound cow much better
than thirty pounds Of hay per day.
But the ground feed should be mixed
with cut hay, moistened, so the
ground feed will adhere to it, and
must be eaten with the hay and rails
ed, and remastlcated. Fine feed, fed
alone is not raised and remasticated,
but goes on TO the fourth stomach,
without further mastication.-Na.

Washington Letter.
From our Regular Correspondent.

From our Regular Correspondent.
Washington, Oct. 81, IS.
Only Il few weeks now remain be-
fore the assembling of Congress.
Not only the United States, but the
whole civilized world awaits with in
terest the first message from DEM
ocratic President since 1880. Mr..
Cleveland has not yet put pen to
paper in preparation Of this message
to Congress, nor have any sugges-
lions or memoranda been submitted
to him. lie will commence this work
early in November, and will devote
some hours to it daily until Congress
meets.
In view of the seclusion needed for
this work cane the Presidents edict
on Wednesday, closing the White
House to the Office seeker and his in
auence from the first of November
FOR an indefinite time. Colonel
Lamont thinks the rule may be re-
Taxed a little when Congress meets,
so as to admit senators and represen-
tatives, but the desire of the Presi-
dent is to- withdraw from the
annoyance permanently.
Under the new arrangement asplr-
ants for positions will have to reach
the President through the heads OF
departments; but he will still feel
under obligation to seek information
AS to their fitness for Office from such
sources as he may prefer. and in such
ways as he may see fit to adopt.
No one at a distance from the Cap.
ital-indeed no one whose avocat1on
does not bring the matter directly to
his notice-can realize tie enormous
demands that have been made upon
the Presidents time, since his inau.
guration, by petty place hunters.
Those who appreciate the duties OF
l,is Office. and who know low Mr.
Cleveland's performance of them has
been impeded by these exacting i'm
,ortunates will commend the new
rule. In order to prepare himself fol
the questions Of tho winter, the line
hal to BIO drawn at last, not in Z
spirit of exclusivcneSs. as the IN
thinking may claim, but in defense o.
the public interests.
The growth Of the country anu the
modern systems Of rapid transit ma,
yet make necessary some Limitation
to the freedom with which the Exc
cMtive il approached. This being

Why doesn't congress pass q law
giving bounty to farmers! They
have to compete with the pauper
labor of Russia and the heather OF
india and Egypt in the production of
wheat. Why not bestow little gov
eminent aid on them! For twenty
FIVE years the manufacture of almost
any article has received government
aid, why not turn the thing around
and help the farmer a little. No
man can afford to raise wheat at
present prices and compete with the
pauper and heather labor Of the old
world. and why is the wheat raiser
not entitled to government aid as
we'll as the manufacturer. Must all
class legislation be for the rich!
Must way be found by legal enact
ments to aid the manufacturer and
the banke. and the poor farmer be
left to shift for himself. Equal
rights for all men" is one Of the fun.
damental principles of our govern.
ment, but thus far it has been con-
strued in favor of the rich when it
comes to protection. How much
longer are the American people going
to stand this sort Of thing t-Aitkin
