WIN Harrison Help MeKinlev 2

Mr. Mckinley still believes in his
tariff bill, and is going to put the
guilty thing on trial this year before
his own people, by running for gov
ernor against Gov, Campbell, max
ing that the issue. II he can beat
Gov. Campbell, then he thinks OF
clrrying it before the whole people,
contesting the Republican nomna-
ton with President Harrison. 1t
becomes at once a very interesting
question what turn affairs will take.
The Republicans know that the par
ty must stand or fall on the Mckin-
ley bill and the free coinage issue.
If the Republicans can carry Ohio
for Mckinley, they will be greatly
encouraged in making stubborn
fight for the presidency. Ohio is
much of Doodle State, and McKil-
ley could ordinarily rely on the pro,
tected class to furnish fat for the oc-
CasiOn.
But here is presented one unpleas-
ant difficulty. Mr.. Harrison wantsa
second term, and he is fully i'm
pressed that Grand Pap's old hat is
sufficient and the all important issue
for him. He prefers that the tariff
be dropped and then talk about a
free ballot and fair count.
Mr.. Harrison also recognizes that
if Mr.. Mckinley can carry Ohio on
his tariff bill issue, that Mckinley
will give him good deal of trouble
in the next convention. 1t is well
understood fact that the Reed Con-
gress provided literally for Doodle
campaign in '92. Mr. Harrison con.
trolls the Federal patronage, having
IL well in hand, and now if he con
tributes to McKinley's election in
Ohio, he is simply cutting his own
throat, and it becomes very inter
esting question what Dir. Harrison
will do. Mckinley cannot hope for
very smooth sailing without the adj
ministration backing. The fight in .

A Big Corn Crop.

Some time ago the American Ag-
rlculturist offered a premium of $500
for the largest quantity of corn raised
upon one acre of lind, and the State

premium. 1T was obtained by Mr..
Baker of that State, he making AZ
barrels and bushels on an acre, He
sold the corn so raised at % cents a
pint, making the price brought him

This is the largest yield of corn
per acre ever made in the world.

much benefit may be derived. 1t is expected that

after being consigned to the question.box will be

PRUNING IN WINTER.
The Operation win Not InJurs Trees Of
the Hardy hind.

The Operation win Not Ipjurs Trees Of
the Hardy hind.
Trees of hardy kinds may be safely
pruned in winter, if but q moderate
amount is to be cut away. Heavy
pruning always renders tree tenderer
and more liable to injury or check in
growth, If followed by intense cold.
But it rarely happens that such severe
pruning is required If the operator
always has distinct and definite OBJ
jcct in view, he need not cut away
single shoot unless needed. A bearing
tree may have too thick head, and
want a slight thinning. or a small
crooked branch may be in the way, re-
quiring only the clipping of a pocket
knife. There is a special advantage IN
doing the work now-all tae branches
and shape of the head may be easily
seen while the leaves are OFF.
When the owner of an orchard has to
give the business to a hired hand, he
NAV avoid all danger of having the
work wrongly done by marking with
piece of chalk the place where he wants
the pocket-knife or light saw to do the
cutting, directing the operator to fol-
low the chalk mark. Very little cut
ting need thus be made, and no mutila-
ton.
A modification or Improvement may
be made at any time in winter, ii tho
weather happens to be too cold, or
hands scarce for doing the labor till
spring. Take small brush or pencil
with white paint pass through the
orchard, and wherever a branch is to
be pruned, mark with the brush white
line where the cut is to be made. Di-
rect the operator to cut nowhere but
on this line. The chalk would be
washed of by rain; the streak OF white
paint will remain for months. The
piece of chalk may be attached to the
end of a rod or pole, and be used to
reach any part of the tree; and If de-
sired, the owner may pass through his
orchard on horseback, and rapidly
mark as many trees in an hour as tho
operator will prune in q day.-Country
