The Value of Red Glover.

The value of red clover is too well
known to need much said about it, 1t
can grow easily in any of the southern
states, and land should be planted with
clover to rest and fertilize it, and by TINS
rotating between clover for two or three
years and cultivated crops two years, the
condition of the land would be gradually
improved, larger crops secured, and the
clover would pay better while it occupied
the land than almost any crop that could
be grown, to say nothing of the great say.
ing of expense in buying fertilizers, neces.
sary under the present system of con.
tinually using the ground with the same
crops.

TWO PLANS FOR KEEPING GRADE.
How to Preserve Late Varieties at g
Expenditure of Labor and NIopa-

How to Preserve Late Varieties Mt G..
Expenditure of Labor and Money
There are number of methods -
for keeping the late varieties of granan use
az to lengthen the season for this froi 50
These methods all depend for their ~. @
cess on the same conditions In the s uv
place, it is desirable that the fruit sSa Ss
retain its bloom, hence great care aG !.
handling it is necessary to prevent .t u
branches coming in contact with as sID
other 1t is also necessary that imn" Su
feet or bruised berries be Clipped fro..
each bunch.
Following are two simple but effectir.
systems that may be utilized to advan
tage. whether the amount of fruit to -
saved be large or small. Both plans ~ "
nit of the free circulation of an evor
temperature around each bunch and NM
vent the same from rubbing against each
other.
The first method is to take new Shoe .,
soap boxes, oI any other box of about tba
same size, and nail cleats on the inside ~
the ends or sides about one inch from tba
top, and between them bars at varionS
distances, as required by the VARYING
length of the bearing shoot cuttinrSs
The bars are made by mailing small
strip on top of each. AS late as possible
cut off the bearing shoots containing tbe.
punches, with pruning shears, and
shorten them so that they will go between
the end of the box and the top part of the
bar, resting on the bottom part, thus
hanging their punches in their natural
position. By this method the boxes can
be handled without shaking the shoots off
the bars, carried to the light, each bunch
examined as winter advances, decayinp
berries or punches removed, and the best
kept without any moldy taste, as is so
common when they are packed solid.
The second plan is equally simple. All
that is required are two or more iron or
wooden hoops, two lengths of wire TO
every two hoops to hold them in position
and some string and the contrivance is
complete. When hung up it is the easiest
thing in the world to trim out decayed or
useless berries; in fact, the stock of grapes
can be kept in good condition without
even shifting the contrivance at all.

against him.
We predict that the independents in
this county will be so badly defeated that
the democratic executive committee will
have difficulty in finding any of their

We predict that the amalgamated ticket

BUT TWO SOLVENT PARTIES.

The Chicago Inter-Ocean (Rep.) has
the following:
mot single instance can be produced
showing any tangible good resulting from
attempts to organize a distinctive tenn
perance party, to contest the ground with
existing parties in state and national
politics. After some years of effort In
that direction the only result has been the
stirring up of strife, and sowing the
seeds of dissepsion and bitterness among
temperance people"
In Texas a year ago the question of
prohibition, stripped of any distinctive
party affiliations, was discussed and set
tied. This year those who voted for and
those who voted against that measure are
aligned with the party of their early
choice, be that party democratic or repub-
lican. As among these, prohibition does
and should hold no place. There Is, how.
ever, party of disgruntled ones, who are
still following the prohibition flag, and
are fighting both the two well established
parties. This distinctive party, as the
Inter Ocean so aptly puts it. will produce
no tangible results, and will merely exist
to fritter away its life in a useless strug-
gle after the unattainable.

Simple Remedy for Thumps in Hogs.

A correspondent in Southern Live Stock
Journal gives the following as remedy
for thumps in hogs: Give one Tablespoons
full Of vaseline, petroleum jelly mot car
bonized). Repeat every twenty -four
hours as long as necessary. The great
advantage of the remedy, aside from its
efficacy, is the ease with which it is given.
1t is a job to drench hog, but this vas
cline slips down so easily that there is no
time for strangulation, In extreme cases
it is best to blister under neck and be.
tween front legs with cantharidal col.
lodion.

The Old Lady by the sea is feeling the
effect of the persistent demand of the
people for deep water on the coast, and
that, too, whether the deep water point is
Galveston or elsewhere. An editorial
reprinted from that paper this morning,
while not enthusing on the proposed
scheme for securing deep water at the
mouth of the Brazos river, yet treats the
subject fairly, and is commended for
that reason. Texas could stand three or
four fine ports on her coast-why
shouldn't she have them?

production Of coal, iron ore, coke, lime
stone, and other materials. There were
imported into the United States about
255, 900 gross tons OF tin plate in 1887,
which represents $4,000 tons Of iron
ore, 800, 900 tons OF limestone, 81, 500, 600
tons OF coal and coke, 100000 tons Of
coal and coke, 100000 tons OF pig iron,

pounds OF tin, l2,00O000 pounds OF tai:
low and palm oil, 100000 pounds OF
sulphuric acid, l2,OOO,0O0 feet Of lumber,
and, in addition, fire brick, clay, oil and
other lubricants, hemp, etc.
1t would require sixty.eight large
works OF five trains OF rolls each, involv-
ing an outlay of S30,0O0,000 capital, and
employment TO about 24,000 workmen,
who would earn at least sl2,OOO,OOO in
wages. All this would be accomplished,
believe, without the leastinjury, within
one year, to any consumer OF tin plate in
the United States.
There is nothing to be added to this
clear exposition of the case except to
suggest that il we could locate the plant
or plants in Wheeling or distributed them
through the State of West Virginia, we
could easily and clearly appreciate what
the creation of a new industry means
Protection has its practical side.

The Mills bill puts tin plate on the
free list, although the sheets not coated
with tin pay at the lowest one cent a
pound duty. Why the same thing with
more labor on it should come in free OF
duty, is something which only the ini-
tatcd are expected to understand. Tin
plate, be it remembered, is very little
tin-about five per ccnt-and a good deal
OF iron or stecl-about ninoty-fve per
cent.
Mr.. Randall is one OF the very few
Democrats who have not given their
support to the Mills bill or to the theory
on which the bill is founded. Mr.. Ran
dali opposed the Mills bill with one of
his own. In the course OF his remarks
attacking the Mills measure and explain
ing his own, Mr.. Randall had this to say
regarding an important industry that
could easily be established in this coun-
try:
Particular objection has been made to
the increased rate OF duty provided for
In the bill introduced by me above the
existing law on tin plate. The present
rate is cent per pound, the proposed
rate 2.l0ccn perpound. This increase
is necessary to secure the production Of
tin plate in the United States.
At present tin plate making is practic-
allyunknown in this country, though We
are MS well fitted TO make it rs England
and Wales, from which countries most
OF our tin plate comes. The United
States is the largest consumer OF tin
plate in the world. We take nearly two
thirds Of the production OF Great Brit.
aid. Within six years we have paid
British manufacturers over Sl00,OOO,0OO
for tin plate, besides paying freight. This
is too much money to send out OF the
country for an article which We arc capa-
bic OF producing at home.
The value at the port Of export OF the
tin plate imported during the year end
ing June 80, 1887. was Sl6,SS3,Sl3. AS
near us can learn, the total wages paid
the British laborers in the production Of
tin plate imported into the United States
last year were about S9,000,000. My
wish is that such amount shall be cX-
pended in our own country, and that it
shall 30 to our own wage.earners. The
rate fixed would induce such extended
manufacture, that in my Judgment
by reason Of competition and the law Of
demand and supply, the price would not
he higher after twelve months than We
are now paying for the same article, and
would put the manufacture of tin plate
where, by proper inspection laws, II
could be kept from poisonous adultera-

Mr.. G. W. Atkinson hits the nail on
the head when he says: "The Republi.
can party owes it to itself to nominate
its strongest candidate in this district.
This, we suppose, was in the minds Of
the County Committee when they took
steps looking to popular action at the
coming Ohio county primaries, At all
events, this is what the ISrELMGENcER
has urged, and will continue to urge,
the Republicans OF this district to do.
There is no Republicansin this First
Congressional District who is SO deserv-
ing that the party owes him any more
than it can pay to the common run Of its
faithful and deserving members. There
is no man who can OF right demand the
nomination on any grounds whatsoever,
and il any misguided Republican comes
to the front in this guise there need be
no hesitancy about deciding his case
against him.
1t sounds very well to say with regard
to aspirants for political honoB, "Let
them fight it out among themselves"
But while they are tugging away at each
other they may be paving the way for
their party's defeat. Or, 1t may DO that

look the field over. 1t is certain in the
