come, and after aWnlle laws 10 pro-
tect producers and consumers alike
against all food adulteration. 1t Is
worth the effort, and united effort Will
secure it.
The Order of Patrons of Husbandry
is no pent up Utica concern, as Is
proven by the prompt response to the
call of other classes to aid III the Pure
Food movement. The Grange has Sc
cured relief to the entire people, far
greater than to its own membership
by securing the Interstate Commerce
and OleOmargarine laws. 1t has near
lv secured the reduction of postage on
plants and seeds and a much needed
paper fractional currency. 1t now Is
engaged in preventing the Chicago
Cattle Ring from capturing the right
arm of the Agricultural Department
by getting control of the Bureau OF
Animal Industry. This is matter i'll
which the entire people are interested
they do not desire, nor will they al
low, the Bureau of Animal Industry
to be used by set of monopoliSts TO
enable them TO sell diseased beef as
well as diseased hogs. In addition TO
this matter, it is also engaged III the
laudable work of securing for the peo-
pie pure food. Every man, woman
and child and the child unborn is di-
rectly interested III this matter, and
the Grange asks your assistance III
this laudable work in the interest OF
health and morals as well as of az
riculture and commerce. Every man
and woman who can write, or who
has influence over others, should at
once write to their congressman ana
let them know that the people de
mand and will have a Pure Food law.
Such an Order that is working for the
greatest good to the greatest number
should command the respect OF all IN
telligent and thinking people. we
know prejudice exists against the Or
der. but it is because of ignorance of
its aims and purposes. 1t is a purely
philanthropic and educational organ
ization among farmers which, when
properly understood, must commend
itself to the intelligent people OF the
country irrespective of vocation.

FARM AND HOUSEHOLD.

PROVIDE FOR THE SUMMERTIME
farmer who by reason of careful econ
omy and intelligent system with his
store of feeding materials has brought
his stock well through the long and
severe winter should not neglect to
make ample provision for forage
through the coming summer If last
fall he was thoughtful enough TO SOW
large breadth to rye on productive
ground, and can now thrust in his
scvthe and feed without stint from the
increase to satisfy all craving mouths,
we congratulate him on his very pres
ent help. And if he has a field of
promising clover and withal a few
acres already green with springing
oats, so much the better. But there
is yet another provision to be made,
and that without delay. In about
ninety days hence, especially if very
dry weather shall set in TO pinch the
grass, another very present help may

THE POULTRY YARD.-To raise fine
caponS it is not necessary for the
poultry raisers to cOnfine themselves
to any one breed By performing the
operation, the same general result is
produced with all breedS-that is,
their size and weight are increased in
proportion TO the natural size of the
breed. The quality of the meat is
greatly improved in all breeds, becom-
ing rich, tender, fine grained, high fla
vored, with an abundance of breast or
white meat. The increase in weight
which follows caponizing, as general
thing, may be reckoned at about
forty per cent. increase on the natural
weight of the fowl Such increase,
however, is only obtained by allowing
the capon TO fully mature, which he
will do in about twelve months from
birth, and, should be kept this length
of time before marketing. The cost
three months, and he is just no trouble
at all to care for Another important
item in the expense of raising caponS
is the fact that they are SO hardy and
free from diseases. | never vet have
seen a sick capon or lost one from dis
ease. | have had them take cold after
performing the operation, and become
slightly infiamed, and perhaps die,
but very rarely. l have seen them
lose their eyesight, and been obliged
TO Kill one or two rather than to
bother feeding them by hand; but l
never yet have seen real sick capon,
and | fully believe that performing
the operation is one of the very best
representatives. TO disease, and that it
causes the bird to be much stronger
every way.

INTERESTING TO PLUMBERS.

n Decision That Affects Ihetr Relations
to Householders.
A great deal of interest is manifested
by the master plumbers in the prosecu.
ton brought by Inspector of Plumbing
Robinson against Eugene and Frank
Hannah These gentlemen are master
plumbers and they are charged with vic.
lating the plumbing regulations in failing
to notifying the inspector to inspect the
plumbing in number of houses fitted up
by them.
Mr.. Robinson stated to an EVENING
PosT reporter to-day that this action on
the part of the Humans defeated the
whole object of the regulations so far as
several houses are concerned. He states
that the plumbers who comply with the
regulations say that it is not fair to them
to allow men, who disregard the regula-
tons, compete with them when they bid
for work The plumbers, he says, are
anxious that the court should discourage
such practices, both in the interest Of the
public health and in justice to men who
comply strictly with the law.

The following yemark of Judge Thayer
in Philadelphia few days ago in SINH
lar case TO the one against these gentle
men showsin what esteem the regulations
are held there;
Plumber Christian Rappold had pleaded
guilty to misdemeanor in failing TO submit
to the Board of Health, under the act Of 1885,
his plans for the plumbing OF a building. Mr..
Rappold had also neglected to give notice TO
the Board of Health after the work had been
completed, so that his work might be officially
inspected,
In sentencing Mr., kappold to pay fine Of
$50 and costs, Judge Thayer also said: at is
of the first importance, as regards the public
health that the law be enforced and the
plumbers, before they proceed to submit their
plans to the Board OF Health, and particularly
after their work is done, they shall notify the
Board of Health in order that an inspection
can be made. In that way only can the law
be enforced and the health of the city pre-

Depot for Handkerohiefs.

Every Christmas since we
have been in business our
sales i'll Handkerchiefs have
almost doubled. This is sig
nihcant. This immense trade
in Handkerchief has not
grown by chance. We began
by selling none but all
linen" Handkerchiefs in
preference to cotton-and-linen
mixed. Do you know how
few can tell the difference be-
tween the two-about five out
of the hundred. You do not
have to be Linen-wise to buy
here. You may ask how we
can tell which is which.
Here is one infallible sign
Tear the Handkerchief both
ways Of the thread, if it tears
easily and leaves a smooth
edge it is all cotton; if it
doesn't tear at all, or tears
hard, leaving a rough uneven
edge, it is all-linen. Besides,
pure linen is cold and CLASSY
looking, lumpy in thread, and
washes winter and winter.
Cotton or linen-niixed Hand
kerchiefs are creamy, soft,
even in thread, and wash vel
lower and yellower, and usu-
ally wear into Sits. Which
will you buy If you re-
member last December's stock,
we have only to say we have
about doubled it. We begin
some months before the time
to prepare this stock for the
Holidays, and from now on,
we shall receive Handker-
chiefs by nearly every freight.
Not only is the stock larger,
but the variety is more compre-
hensive-the prices represent
better value, and we have
double the space to show
them. Your comfort and con-
venience will be looked after
as it has never been before,
and we shall try to make it
more than ever to your inter
est to do your Handkerchief
shopping here.

the mine was fired. A short time before the
