FARM NOTES.

CoIc is most likely to attack horses
in the spring, as then are most apt
to exist the conditions which produce
it-change from dry to green food,
usual fatigue, weak condition Of di-
gestlve organs, getting wet, etc. The
remedies suggest themselves-care
in feeding, watering and working,
and the administration of what med
icines are necessary to put the d.
gestive organs il good condition.
The best remedy l know of-one
whichsI have never known to fail
is turpentine rubbed against the up
per jaw and inner side of the upper
lip of the horse. Fill the palm OF
your right hand with the turpcntlne.
Rub some on the breast also. Apply
every twenty minutes until relief Is
given-Western Plowman.
In transplantlng or setting out
raspberry plants, care should always
be taken to keep the roots moist.
None of the fruit plants suffer as
much from drying out as these, hence
care should be taken to- see-that the
roots are not allowed to become dry.
Because there are plenty of Wild
blackberries is not sufficient reason
why you should not set out at least
sufficient number to furnish a sup.
ply for your own use. They a2e
so much larger, sweeter and better
than the wild, besides being much
more convenient. Early Harvest and
Snyder are very good varieties for
this section. The only objection to
them is their liability to spread. This
can be easily overcome by digging q
trench and setting In good plank
eight to ten inches wide edgewise;
this will prevent the roots from reach
ing out beyond the desired limits.
A market gardner had very fine
COW that was MIXED week utter week
by hired men. He observed that the
amount Of butter he carried to mar
ket weighed about pound more on
each alternate week. He watched
the men and tried the COW after they
had finishised milking. but always
found that there was no milk left In
the teats. He finally asked the Scotch
girl who took care of the milk il che
could account for the difference.
"Why, yes," she says. tWhen Jim
milks he says to the old COW, SOL
my pretty muley, sol" But when
Sam milks he hits her on the hip
with the edge of the pail and says,
'Histe, you old brute!'''
Cure for felon-Take some salt,
roast il on a hot stove until all the
chlorine gas is thrown of, or it Is all
dry as you can make it. Take tea
spoonful of Venice turpentine mix
them well into poultice and apply
to felon. IF you have ten felons
at once, make as many poultices.
Renew the poultice twice day. In
four or five days your felon will, If
not opened before your poultice is
first put on, present hole down to
the bone where the pent-up matter
was before your poultice brought Il
out. If the felon has been cut open,
or opened itself, or is about to take
off the finger to the first joint, no
matter, put on your poultice, it will
stop it right there, and in time your
finger will get well, even If one Of
the first bones is gone.-Ex.

AGRlCULTURALIsTs who claim to
have tested the matter say that po-
tatoes are better for COWS IN, Eipter
than corn. If this IS really rue
why not raise more potatoes azld feed
them to cows? Statistics show that
from 80 TO 200 bushels Of. potatoes
can be raised 70 the acfe. There is
not so much nutriment IN potatoes,
pound for pound, as there Is in corn,
but as food for stock cattle they
are better than corn, being better
adapted to their wants, and. more
healthy. It is also believed that II

AIMING INCAPdCITT.

Is Mr.. Cleveland L" an amazing incapac1ty
The question is not raised by Repubilcans'
They looked into the matter about eighteen
months ago. and concluded that he was. but
Democrats and Mugwumps who shonteu
balleluiahs to his name, cast 4 thousand more
votes in New-York and he became President.
N,w the Democrats and Mugwumps, and es-
nec,ally The Ne,c- York Herald, are trying TO
exnloin how Mr.. Cleveland has come to be an
amazing incapacity, intellectually unable to
oomnrebeod the duties and responsibilities of
his place"
Tho chief accusation made against him under
this head is that he caunot comprehend that
political party must have some purpose ana
nrinciple, or it cannot govern. From the first
the President has refused to recognize that MS
marty possessed or that he ought to be governed
by any political purpose or principle. lie has
selected for posts of high trust and lnfuence
men who believed with him that silver coinage
ought to be stopped, aud also men VINO de-
nounced that belief as the doctrine OF =" gold
bugs" and "enemies of the people" INTO
places of trust and influence he has put sun
protectonsts and rabid free traders; blatant
communists and conservative representatives
of property and vested rights debt payers ana
repudators Perhaps the best illustration OF Ms
WAYS was the selection of two mon for the same
office, chief of the Civil Service Commission :;
Eaton, the reformer, and next Oberiy, the
spoils-hunter. The President supports no
policy or principle himself, and 1t Is not strange
ii at his party supports none.
Hence. il is said the party is impotent. nut
it would he Just to say, the party is naturally
impotent. Before Cleveland was, so to speak,
fine marty had become the national junk shop; a
Heterogeneous colocaton of unrelated rubbish.
1t would have been more or less impotent for
any good with or without Cleveland. Mr..
Cleveland has only intensified its native and
ineradcable ncapacity by carefully putting
both ends and ali fragments of it to the front.
HIS friends say that his object, or in court
phrase his mission" is to complete the dis
Indignation and destruction of both parties"
Bnt his dynamite explodcs only under the
Democratic end. The Herald admits that the
effect has been to help the Republican party
and to disintegrate his own. The Republicans
were never more united than they are now. II
they differ as to minor points, they heartily
agree on the vital questions which separate the
two great political tendencies. But there are
many Democrats who are commonly denounced
as Repubicans by their own political assocl-
ates, and many others who have no beliefs at
all, but are mere jobbers and spoils-seekers'
ready to profess anything under the sun In
O, der to get and keep place. All this hurts the
marty less than the irrecOncilabe hostility be-
tween those of its members who have honest
convictions and sincere purposes. Mr. Cleve-
land has helped nightly to place before the
public this ncapacity of the Democratic party
to govern. His own amazing incapacity the
country ought to have known before he was
elected.

TIE IMPOSSIBLE ARG UMENT.

The Conservative leaders have produced one
more argument against Home Rule. Lord
Salisbury and Lord Randolph Churchill in their
speeches on Wednesday night pronounced the
problem insoluble, since it was Impossible to
devise any method OF maintaining the unity OF
the Empire and allowing the Irish people to
govern themselves. Lord Salisbury went so far
as to pay high tribute to Mr.. Gladstone's in
tellectual powers, and cOntended that his fail
IRE to produce a practical measure was con-
elusive proof that nobody else could ever hope
TO succeed. The Prime Minister had brought
to the task unIivalled experience and talents
for constructive legislation and had not been
successful for the simple reason that he had
undertaken what was impossible.
The opponents Of Home Rule must do better
than this, if they hope to defeat Mr. GladstOne's
scheme. They are merely begging the question
when they ask the English people 10 assume
that Home Rule and imperial stability are il
reconciabe. The Dublin Parliament will be a
tremendous experiment, it l. true but until it
be tried no English statesman is warranted in
pronounc,ng its successful operation beyond the
range of possibilities. With much more reason
can it be said by Mr.. Gladstone that it Is clearly
impossible for England to continue the system
of ruling Ireland by force bills and military
garrison and hope to secure the moral support
and sympathy of the people, which in the nine
teenth century is the only basis of government
recognized by the civilized world. That expert
ment has been tried since Mr.. Pitts Act of
Union and it has not been crowned with sue
cess. The other experiment of Home Rule has
not been tried in Ireland and it remains to be
proved whether it will succeed or fail.
When the compromise of 1867 was proposed
in Austria Hungary it was considered vision
ary scheme by the most experienced Legislators
and historians of the realm. The leader, of the
Czechs. the Croats, the Poles and the Slavs
generally were convinced that it would prove
disastrous failure. The German Liberals in
Austria and the Magyars in Hungary. in whose
interest it had been projected, were not by any
means confident that Dualsm was practical
solution of the difficult problem of securing at
once imperial unity and Home Rule. Iisza, a
statesman destined to become one of the most
jealous advocates Of the proposed system,
spoke eoqnently against 1t. The greatest
Hungarian historian of the day described Dual
ism AS an arithmetical impOssibility like squar-
ing the CIRCLE /" the greatest and most culpable
mystifcation both above and below" since 1t
was utterly impracticable to have two distinct
constitutional States, with responsible Minis
tries and separate legislatures, and at the same
time to maintain the unity of the Empire
What 90 many distinguished Hungarian and
Austrian statesmen considered an impossibilify
twenty years ago has proved an excellent ar
rangement for governing the two halves OF the
Empire. The political circle has been squared

at stake the Republican Senators cannot afford to
condone It, II arises most seriously the case of
General Hudekoper, who was displaced from the
Posmastership in Philadelphia at the beginning of
his second term to make room for friend of SAM
Randall. General Huidekoper had not only the
claim of valiant and honored officer during the
war, but Of an excellent record as Postmaster His
