RSTHE NEATEST WORK
~ ON THE HAMMOND
Yesterday we told why the Ham,
mond typewriter was the speediest
Today we viii endeavor to convince
you that its work is the neatest.
Its writing is always uniform, the
impression being independent Of the
touch. No matter how sharply or
gently the keys may be struck the
work is OF one shade and Of perfect
alignment.
Should two keys be struck simul-
taneously but one impression is
made. thus preventing the blotting
and blurring incident to rapid work
on other machines. This applies also
to manifold;nR. The speed Of the
operator neeu not be diminished in

These advantages render the work

The cross form of the labels, as SO
often seen in European public parks

open to the criticism of imparting to
such resorts of pleasure and recreation
a somewhat ccmetery-like appearance.
Mr. Il. Endlicher, German landscape

style of label shown in annexed en-
craving. This label is not only simple,
cheap and practical, but also quite
tasty and pleasing to the eye, and at
the same time showing the name leg

is cut or stamped out of heavy sheet
zinc. The form to be adopted may be
the one shown in illustration, or it may
vary from this according to individual
taste. The face side is given two coats
of black paint, and upon this, when
thoroughly dry, the name is to be writ

Individual Members OF the Alliance Should
Take an Interest In Politics.
A change has come over the spirit of
the journal of Agriculture's dreams.
In its last issue that paper calls upon
every sub-union in the state to at once
discuss the political situation, and de-
eide upon the advisability of acting
with the third" or peoples party. Let
us see: Is not this the same paper that
has all along been advising the +. & L.

Is the Tarkio Independent merely
stupid, or is it trying maliciously to
prejudice people against this paper?
Any one familiar with the constitution
of the +. & l.. U. knows that as an or
ganization it cannot go into politics, rs
we have said all along. But individuals
can, and should go into politics and
work with all their might, as we have
said all along. As to the party they
should go into, they must determine
for themselves. 1t looks now as if it
would be necessary to form a peoples
party in order to secure our demands.
If it is necessary, we shall not fail to

advised them, Ito go in and win"

Here is an incident from the South
Mississippi, written in April. 1890.

country. II am a farmer, one of
those who have to rise early and
work late. At the beginning of last
Winter was on a trip to the City
ofVicksburg. Miss. where I got we'll
drenched in a shower of rain. I
went home and was soon after seized
with a dry, hacking cough. This
grew worse every day, until I had
to seek relief. consulted DR.. Dixon
who has since died, and he told me
to get a bottle of Boschee's German
Syrup. Meantime my cough grew
worse and worse and then the Grippe
came along and 1 caught that also
very severely. My condition then
compelled me to do something. I
got two bottlesof German Syrup. I
began using them, and before taking
much of the second bottle, I was
entirely clear of the Cough that had
hung to me so long, the Grippe. and
all its bad effects. Ifelt tip-top and
have felt that way ever since"

or bin, and therefore the merch ant and
the consumer may join with the pro-
ducer in sharing the loss that comes
from this cause.
The trouble is due to n microscopic
growth of fungous nature, and the
spread of it through the root is similar
to that of a mildew through leaf, or
a mold through a piece of bread or
cake.
At least three kinds of spores are
formed by the black-rot fungus, so
that there are abundant provisions for
the propagation of the trouble, besides
the method as illustrated ut in the en-
craving. The sprout is here seen, and
it will be observed that the upper por-
ton and the lowest leaf are repre-
sentcd dark, to indicate that they are
growth of the same fungus as the one
causing the spots, large and small, in
the potato at a. The lower portion of
the sprOut, c, which normally is color
less from being under ground and COW
cred with small roots, is in this case
spotted with long, dark patches. also
due to the fungus in question. Should
such plant be set in the field, it would
he quite sure to develop potatoes af-
fected with the black rot, provided it
survived. In all such eases the disease
has probably gone from the root used
as seed in the propagating bed to the
sprouts that grow from it. Laboratory
experiments were made in growing
sprouts from diseased roots. and inva-
riably the sprouts would be attacked
and worthless.
This point suggests the utmost i'm
portance in selecting the seed" that
it be entirely free from the black rot.
If there be doubt about this, it would
be wise to obtain roots from locality
where no black rot has been known
A second precaution is to discard all
sprouts not perfectly healthy.
1t is possible that some substance
may be found by experiment that when
sprayed upon the hot beds will assist
materially in checking the black rot.
In like manner there may be some
treatment for the roots after digging
that will prevent any further growth
of the rot None of the tests made with
various substances added to the soil at
setting time have given material re-
lief In fields where the rot is very
bad, it may be wisest to devote the land
for few years to some other crop, and
thus permit the fungus that is in tho
soil to die out.

FARM. AND GARDEN.
SWEET POTATO ROT.


W hat Prof Halsted Knows About This
DisastrOus Disease.
Among the various fungous diseases
that attack the sweet potato none is
usually more destructive and therefore
more annoying to the grower than
what is known as ''black rot" so
named because the tubcrs thus affected
turn to a dark color, and in the worst
cases change to a powdery substance
almost as black as coal.
Prof. Byron ID. Halsted, of the New
Jersey experiment station, who has
made an investigation of these diseases.
describes the black rot in q recent num-
bcr of the Country Gentleman.
The accompanying engraving, at a,
he says, shows a sweet potato as it ap-
pears when badly attacked by the black
rot. There are five diseased patches
shown-two small and two quite large.
The decay begins at certain points
perhaps the base of \ small side root
and gradually spreads throughout the
potato. At digging time the root may
not show any signs of the decay, but
will often make its appearance later.
In other words, the black rot is form
of decay that continues to spread in the
root, whether the latter be in the soil

Value Of Legal Tender Money, Either Gold,

Some people do not seem to be able
to comprehend that the law gives to
money its measure of value power; that
full legal tender silver or paper dollars
will pay as many debts, taxes or duties,
buy as many gold dollars as full legal
tender gold dollars; or that the intrin-
sic value is not the measure of value of
q legal tender measure of value.
Full legal tender coined silver money
reduces correspondingly demand for
gold bank money, of which money

The statement that coinage of silver
would drive money out of the country
isabsurd, as United States silver money,
