Senator Allison Will BE Reelected, but q

Special TO the Indianapolis Journal
WASHINGTON, Nov. 24.-Judge Struble, of
Iowa, Congressman from the Sioux City
district, is here, He regards the recent
election in his State as detrimental to the
interests of prohibition. He said to your
correspondent, to-day. that the Republican
majority would be SO close in the Legisla-
ture that if there should be some Republic
ans who were dissatisfied with the present
form of prohibition. the law might be re-
pealed. The Judge is well satisfied with
Iowa's prohibitory law. and believed
it is very we'll enforced. He said
that there is no doubt of Senator ALI
sons reelection. His defeat" said Judge
Struble. would be a calamity to the peo-
pie In all political parties. Senate Alli-
sons services are national in Importance,
and he will undoubtedly be retained In the
Senate as long as the Iowa Legislature is
Republican On joint ballot and he desires
to keep his position"
Congressman Gear. Ex-Governor of Iowa,
is also here. He says the majority on Joint
ballot in the Legislature will be six for the
Republicans ard that every one of them
will stand by Senator Allison for r~e-elec-
ton. There is only one Independent In
the Senate" says Governor Gear, and that
is l.. S. Hanchett, who represents Brewer
and Butler counties. Senator Hanchett is
really a Republican. although he has gained
the reputation of being an Independent by
acting Independently of his party leaders
q few times. Senator Finn, of TAYLOR
county, who is reported as against Senator
Allison. is for him and will stand solid in
the caucus.
The Iowa Legislature Will meet three
weeks from tomorrow and a deadlock is
almost certain TO ensue, and it NAV con-
tinue for an indefinite period. There was a
similar deadlock in 1874, when the grangers
tied the Legislature. 1t convened ON Jan.
II and balloted till the 23d. and a com
promise was effected which broke the dead
lock and | was elected Speak er. am
afraid that history will repeat itself next
month. The circumstances which defeated
the Republican Governor at the late elee-
ton viii not come up again. They grew
out of a complication of local issues and
had nothing to do with national ~affairs.n

may have growing out of the late war, even
to the extent of having received an over
other words, Virginia to-day refuses to rec
ognize a claim from the federal govern
ment on the ground that the federal gov
eminent has no right to demand Of an sin
dependent State" any kind of payment for
obligations.
In the event Congress passes the direct
tax bill, which the representatives in the
Senate have, during the last two years
adopted. the claim against the State of
Virginia can be settled. Otherwise the
federal government will be compelled to
proceed for the collection of this overpay-
ment. 1t may be that there will be moth
ing coming to Virginia by reason of the
adoption of the direct-tax bill. as that
measure proposes to refund TO the States
the direct tax made to maintain a resist

WASHINGTON, Nov. Pat is no wonder
that Virginia was carried by the Democrats
the other day by a returned majority of
over 1900. Virginia is not reconstructed.
The great revolutionary element there is as
strong for secession to-day as in 1850. This
has just been demonstrated by a CORE
spondence which has been going on be-
tween the Treasury Department and Gov.
Lee for some time. At the close of the war
the federal government settled a lot of
claims which the various States had, for as

the adjudication of the claim of Virginia an
error was made by which the State was
paid TO the excess of S21, 600. The

Oats is better grain feed than corn
for ewes. 1t is not so heating and con-
tains more of the nitrogenous element
so essential in building up the system

Every f1ock-master must know by this
time that it is a constant diet on dry
food in winter that plays the mischief
with the flock. II you have neither en-
silage nor roots, feed some oil meal.
Corn must be fed to sheep very spar
ingly. Not over pound and half of
corn should be given daily to good
sized wether. But in addition it must
have plenty of nutritious grass or hay.
Many farmers in Western New York
gave up the wool business as unprofit-
able long ago. but still keep sheep, and
say that keeping the mutton breeds is
one of the best-paying branches of farm
ing.
Sheep should not be compelled to feed
at the same rack with cattle. They are
liable to be hooked, and vicious ram
may sometimes do injury to cattle.
Separate yards and separate racks are
safest and best.

AGRICULTURAL HINTS.
PRINTERS INK.

Its Value to the Breeder and the Necessity
for Using 1t.
"There is no use in talking about 1t,
no man can succeed as q breeder without
the most liberal use of printers ink.r
That is what we heard fall from the lips
of an old and successful breeder the
other day. This is truly one of the oc-
cupations where it will not do to hide
your light under bushel. The reason
for all this is simple enough. Suppose
for number Of years you have been
assiduously attending to your breeding
business on your farm, saying nothing
to any one through the press, attending
fairs and sales perhaps, but not giving
any one to understand that you possess
the spirit of leader in your line of bust
ness, and what is the result? You become
overloaded with live stock and, being
forced to advertise, no one knows who
you are, and those who are in need of
the very animal you have to sell con-
clude that, as they never heard of you
before, the chances are that you are a
mere adventurer in the business, one
who has bought up lot of animals to
sell again. Such we say is the very
natural conclusion, from the fact that
you were not known to the community
of which you are part.
Perhaps you are not writing man and
know nothing of the art of quill-driving.
That amounts to nothing. If you have
any ideas of your own. and it is poor
man that has none, they can readily
be put in form by the editor of good
journal. But if you SO much dislike
writing as to refuse to do it under any
and all circumstances, then you must
advertise the more, for the lack of this.
Advertise you should do any way; even
If it be but a small one, it should be in
several journals, and stay there year in
and year out. Keep yourself before the
public.
One good way to court public atten-
tion is showing stock at fairs. 1t mat
ters very little who gets the premium,
your gain comes from the notice you
get from every journal that mentions
the fair. All such scribblers praise you,
no matter what you have on exhibition.
Then there is the advertisement of pub
lie sales; of course the better the ami
mails you have in the sales the more they
advertise you, but you should get into
those sales even if you come in at the
tail end. We know a number of men
who have been handling fine stock for
twenty to thirty years, always breeding
and buying the best, but who have never
succeeded in selling to great advan-
tage, simply because they have neglected
the proper use of printers ink.-Amer-
lean Dairyman.

Successful gardening means plenti-
full application Of fertilizers, and, in
decd, there should be more attention
given to saving manure on the farm
than is now bestowed. Our land is
mostly very fertile naturally, but
manure does not hurt any land, and the
time will come when either we or those
who come after US must fertilize the
land. But the garden needs manure,
and we would raise the best garden
crops. In the first place, We should have
o barnyard that is fitted for saving the
manure. If the yard is one that per-
mits all the drainage to run to waste we
shall lose a good deal. The drainage
should be taken care of somehow, it
being left to the individual Judgment in
each case as how best to do that. Then
in piling up manure it is much better to
put it into fiat heap. If you pile horse
manure on to a high, loose place fer
mentation will be excessive and vast
deal of ammonia will be wasted. If it
is put into fiat pile the process of fer
mentation can be regulated, for when
it is too great the pile can be trodden
down. That will check fermentation.
