The Alliance and Politics.

OCALA, FLA. December THE
opinion is gaining ground here that the
national leaders of the Democratic par
tv have many lobbyists here in their in
terest and that the policy ofthe Alliance
in many respects will be influenced by
them. notablyin the case ofthe sub-treas-
ury bill. That measure IS now under
consideration by the National Alliance
and has been for several days past. 1t
is predicted that when it finally comes
from the committee it will have been
modified and changed In many important
particulars with a view to making it ac-
cord with the Democratic doctrine to
such extent that 1t will be endorsed by
the National Democratic Convention in
1892, or perhaps be passed by Congress
PRIOR to that event.
With some slight changes and modili-
cations the Alliance Ocala platform, it
IS predicted. could secure absolute adop-
ton by the National Democratic Con-
ventlon, and this, with the endorsement
Of a modified sub-treasury bill, would
place tie Democratic party squarely up
on The Farmers Alliance platform. In
this way it would gain the support Of the
cutire Alliance and Democratic votes
throughout the country.
The third party movement, it is whs-
pcreJ in some quarters, is slow trick
OF the National Democracy to destroy
the Republican vote in the West aud
Northwest apd:tls the Republican vote
in Lnc South. thus enabling the National
Democratic ticket to secure success IN
neatly ali the doubtful States in 1892.
4 strong effort will be made to allow
all representatives OF the plcss to be
present during the debates tomorrow
on the report Of the committee on the
sub-treasury bill. as its result will be by
far the most important action Of the Al
lance on any public measure which has
any bearing on national politics.

The Canning Season.

Canning Is an improvement upon the
old-fashioned method OF preserving
pound for cound IN sugar. It retains
more of th5 fresh and natural favor, is
far less trouble to prepare and more
economical. All fruits may be canned
with or without sugar, as the sugar
takes 20 part whatever IN the preserva-
ton. F,r favoring ice-creams and
water-ices it is desirable to can the
fruits without sugar. Choose only per-
fectly sound and fresh fruits on the
very verge of decay; even at very re-
duced rates, as they quickly ferment
after canning, and you not only lose
fruit, sugar and labor, but very often the
jars as well.
All large fruits, after raring, should
be immediately thrown into cold water
to prevent discoloration, then boiled in
clear water until tender, then again in
the syrup.
Small fruits retain their shape more
perfectly if sugared one or two hours
before cooking, A quarter teaspoonful
of alum added to each pound Of sugar
hardens the fruit and gives it bril-
liancy.
Large-mouthed glass jars, with porce-
lain-lined or glass tops only, should be
used. They should be thoroughly
heated before filing, filled quickly
through q wide-mouthed funnel to
overfowing. A silver spoon-handle
should be passed around the inside of
the jar, to break any air bubbles that
may be there, and the tops screwed on
without delay. Stand the jars while
/ filing on a folded towel to prevent
breakage, After sealing, stand the jars
in warm part of the kitchen over
night. In the morning the covers
should again be frightened, as the glass
will contract after cooling, and put
them away in cool, not cold, dry, dark
closets. In week examine each jar
carefully, without shaking or disturbing
more than necessary. If you find the
lids slightly indented, the contents free
from air bubbles, and the liquid settled
you may rest assured they will keep: II
you find the opposite, open the jars i'm
mediately to prevent bursting. This

canned. Use only the best granulated
sugar. Fruit canned with sugar of an
inferior quality is never clear, and is
also more liable to ferment.
The surplus juice that ezudes from
small fruits, such as Strawberries, rasp-
berries and plumbs, may be strained

A porcelain-lined kettle, rather broad
than deep, is best. Copper or brass
NUT be thoroughly cleansed with salt
and vinegar. and even then the articles
are more or less imbued with verdigris
that is produced in them by the action
of the acids.
Small oil stoves are most convenient
for canning, preserving or jelly making;

SABLE sHEEP,-It has always been
question whether it is possible to breed
flock Of black sheep, and an extensive
flockmaster Of Australia is testing the
matter by sending all his black lambs
to a range by themselves. These can
not truthfully be called freaks of ma
ture. as some claim, or If so there would
te less of it. Stlll, here is som ethlrg
about it not we'll understood. Black
lambs may not occur in flock in gen.
erations and then recur Of a sudden. If
a black ram be used in flock of white
ewes, more than nine-tenths Of the off,
spring will be white. Cases often occur
where both sire and dam are black, and
the lambs white. AS something does
not come from nothing, black blood
must be ditfused through most focks.
Where wool is to be eyed deep color.
1t is claimld that the ''basic pigment"
of black wool being already provided, it
absorbs less dye and makes more en-
during color. However this may be,
there is serious objection to black
sheep because their coats absorb more
rays of the sun than white, affecting
them by heat more readily and more
seriously.
