The Defeat.

Harrison has won. The Democrats
go down in one of the most holly
contested elections ever held in Amer
lea. The canvass was made on clearly
defined issues, the victors having to
back them millions furnished by the
protected interests of this country.
1t was the money power against the
masses-the farming and laboring
interests of the United States-and
the money won. But the defeat does
not remove the great question of tax
reform. The Republican party is
pledged to protection, and it will
doubtless adhere to the ayowed prin-
ciples in stubbornly resisting all at
tempts to reduce the tariff.
The success of the Republican
party means nothing if it does not
mean q continuation of plumber and
robbery in the name of law. 1t means
that unjust taxation will be continued
to fatten and enrich the few by i'm
poverishing and paupering the many
It means that the price of lands and
the products thereof shall continue
to go down, while the protected in
dustries shall flourish, and the owners
fill their Golfers with millions filched
{ from daily laborers and the farming
interests of this country. The sue
cess Of the Republican party means
injury to the great masses of the
peolpe, which will never be refrained
until the people of this great nation
rise up against the money gods and
vote for their rights.
Our faith in the virtue and right
and justice of Democratic principles
is not lessened, and we believe they
will live with the existence of the
government and finally triumphantly
prevail. Defeat does not mean death
to the Democratic party, and before
the smoke of battle is fairly cleared
away the hosts will be marching for
another contest for the right.

The total number of Republican
Congressman whose election is con-
coded is 1853, against whom 159 Dem
ocrats have been elected. There are
three doubtful Districts: the first
California, fourth Connecticut and
tenth Michigan, all claimed by the
Democrats. Should these doubtful
Districts return Democrats to Con-
gress, the strength of the two parties
in the House will be-Republicans
163, Democrats 1872. There were no
Independents elected. ALI the mem
bers elected are classed as Democrats
or Republicans.

a number of South Carolina planters
are claiming that soda is II sure cure for
hog cholera. One says that 10y the use OF
soda 0Jicarbonate) alone, as soon as the
first symptoms of the disease were noticed,
he checked it. Another used soda and
salt together mixed in moderate guam
tity with the food.
An old Kentucky breeder of swine
places salt first in importance rs II pre-
Ventive Of cholera, and believes that salt,
of all substances, is the best promoter Of
digestion as well as an antidote against
worms. This breeder has adopted the
plan of sailing all his animals in water
tight troughs keeping a supply of salt on
hand continually. lie also feeds some
charcoal with the salt to swine that are
closely penned, and gives ashes occasion

On the agricultural grounds of the
Illinois university, number of expert
ments have been made in feeding pigs
One series of experiments were made to
determine the comparative value of corn
meal and oatmeal. Two lots of hogs
were fed. Lot l ate during the period
of five weeks, 1882 pounds of cornmeal,
costing $223, and 40S.25 pounds of
ground oats, costing 1886, making a
total cost of food of S56S. The increase
made was 1853 pounds, which makes the
cost of food per 100 pounds Of increase
$500.
The increase produced by cornmeal cost
S2.5S, and by shelled corn 81. 30 per 100
pounds. 1t thus cost $l.32 more per 100
pounds of increase with the mixed food
than with corn meal, and s 60 more than
with sheled corn.
Another experiment made was one in
feeding corn in the ear, shelled, and
ground into meal. Conclusions arrived
at from results gained were that Looked
at from all sides, when fed dry, whole
corn produces better results than corn
meal. Where the difference is simply
due to the cost of grinding the corn, the
difference in the cost of producing 100
pounds Of increase at the low price of
twenty-eight cents per bushel for corn,
will be twenty-five cents or more, an item
worthy the attention of any hog raiser.

There are four ways of growing lettuce
for market in cold weather-n the green
house. where steam or hot water is used;
By steam heat under dirt in beds by
Steam or water over the lettuce beds, and
in the cid way by manure heat This
last and easiest way is described by a cor
respondent of American Garden. He
uses one cord 12c cubic feet of manure,
to fill under eight or ten sashes; one foot
in depth Of manure in this latitude, I'M
der eight inches of dirt with six inches Of
space between glass and soil is about
right. The sides of the beds on which
the glass rests should be of two inch
plank well nailed to posts or joists made
tight to keep out cold, well protected on
the outside with soil. If sunk almost to
the level of the ground, frost is kept out
better. The beds need to be sheltered by
buildings or a high fence. Sash should
be 3XG feet and two inches thick, made
from pine and have two coats of white
paint. Glaze with GXS glass, double
thick, bedded, tackled and puttied on the
outside with oil and whiting putty.
The correspondent referred to uses solid
shutters of pine boards to cover sash with
in place of mats and likes them better.
For heating, horse manure is employed.
The plants for setting he obtains by SOW
ing small bed in December One ounce
of seed under two sashes gives plants
enough for thirty sashes or more. The
plants in time of setting should have four
to six leaves and be set six to eight inches
apart.

Pyrcthrum is recommended us the best

FIG. 2-HUsK1NG BENCH.

Fig. 2 shows another form of husk-
ing bench. 1t is made by using two small
benches connected by two pieces of wood
two by three inches and ten or twelve feet
long, with cross boards for seats. The
shock is thrown on the bench between the
huskers. When enough stalks are husked
for a bundle, they are bound, without the
husker leaving his seat, and thrown to one
side. The seats have cleats ON the lower
side to prevent dropping. They are most
convenient when about twentyseven
inches high. BY the use of this bench,
either in field or under shelter, we find
that II man will husk one-fourth more
than in the ordinary way.
