Little drops Of wisdom,
Great b g CHUNKS Of gall,
Make this mighty statesmen
In the Congress Hall.

Mr. w oodburn made hit and won
. burst Of applause from his hearers
BY calling attention to the singular
aversion which the hoary haired and
snowy bearded wizard. prophe. and
apostle of the white metal and divine
vicar of the Weaver. Pinto religious
hippodrome displays towards silver in
financial and business transactions.
He said that some time ago the Sena.
tor had number of mortgages on
property in Alameda, and that they
were drawn up in form exacting that
both the principal and interest pay
able on them be paid in gold alone.
This little foihle of Senator Ste wart
was matched by the story of another
related by Mr.. Wooiburn. At the
time Of tho Chinese agitation, the
venerable statesman was forced by
public opinion to discharge two Chi.
nese domes,ics in his employ. He
fred the CeiestiaIs, but hired couple
of japanese to fill their places; and
his friends have been ever since trying
to figure out the benefit to white
labor by the TRANSACTION.
The Senator is the man according
to Mr.. Woodburn, who wanted to re-
duce the salaries of all Government
officials receiving pay above 5000 a
year.
Senator Stewart claims credit for a
bill for t400, 900 for war claims which
he is trying to get through. This bill
is to reimburse Nevadans who spent
their money for the public good dur.
ing the late war. To show Senator
Stewards modesty and boundless faith
in the iberality Of the Government, it
is only necessary to say that the in
terest on the riginal money spent
at the rate of 2 per cent. per month,
amounts to the sum of $229,O0O-
moro than the principle. Mr.. Wood
burn has little faith in the passage Of
the bill.
Mr.. Woodburn said that Senator
Stewart promised Sam Davis the post
of Minister to the Sandwich Islands
in the last campaign, and that when
the post failed to materialize Sam lost
faith in the doctrine that Stewart was
the Almighty.
M. Woodburn handled all of the
Senator's pretentious claims in pretty
much the same fashion as the few de-
scr,bed, and when he had finished
with the idol of the Weaver pintos
there was only q shadow Of his mag
ni6cence left -hardly enough to con.
tinue the "ghost dance" without wob>
bling. He wound up his disquisition
upon the Senator with tho statement
that he had voted for Cleveland at the
last election, and intended to vote for
him again at this election through
Weaver. The Senator can be Justly
celebrated for bad judgment as he is
at the taii-end of the fight every time.
Mr.. Woodburn closed his speech,
which was an eye>opener to the unin-
formed, by respectfully calling atten-
ton to his own record in few words.
His speech on free trade, address on
timber depredations, defense of Harri.
son on tho Chinese question. and his
speeches on silver stand for them selves.
In . compilation of speeches on the
silver question, embracing the adj
dresses of 325 Congressman and 70
Senators, there are more extracts from
his speeches than from any one man.

From an article which appears in the
horticultural Times we quote
The extensive use of sugar on fruit is
not as bad as the cake mania that RACES
in so many kitchens. The fruit acids
large!J neutralize the indiscriminate and
inJsdlcious use of sugar. 1t is no serious
thing to eat considerable saccharine food
IN pure state, but not in the form OF
pure refined sugar.

MENDiNG THE OLR FLAG.
WILL CARLTON .

In the silent gloom of garret room,
With the cobwebs round II creeping,
From day TO day the old flag lay
\ vetran worn and sleeping;
Dirty, old, each wrinkled fold
BY the dust OF years was shaded:
Wounds of the storm were upon its form,
The crimson stripes were faded.
Twas a mournful sight In the dim twilight,
This thing of humble seeming
That once 80 proud DER the chreering crowd
Had carried it, colors cleaning;
Stained with mold were the braids of gold
That had flashed in the sun rays kissing;
OF faded hue was the field of blue,
And some of the stars were missing.
Three northern maids and three from glades;
Where dreams the southland weather,
With glanCes kind and their arms entwlned
Came mp the stair together.
They gazed awhile with thoughtful smile,
AT the crouchIng form before them;
With clinging holds they grasp its folds,
And out of the darkness bore them.
They healed its scars, they found its stars;
And brought them altogether
Three northern maids and three from glades,
Where smiles The southland weather
They mended away through the summer day,
Made glad by an inspiration
To hing IL high at the smiling sky
ON the birthday of our nation.
In the brilliant glare of the summer air,
With the brisk breeze ronnd IL creeping,
Newly bright through the glistening light,
The flag went grandly sweeping:
Cleaning and bold were the braids of gold,
And flashed in the sun rays kissing,
Red, white and blue we're of the deepest hue
And none Of the stars were missing.

The Cream cry.

The creamery is a most useful adjunct
to the business dairy, and not word
should be said in derogation of it. 1t
has advanced the dairy business and mas
been worth millions of dollars to the
industry. But from the very nature of
thing it cannot be expected to make a
superior article of butter as compared with
the best private daiIies. Where the milk
is from one herd, under one management.
and is worked up with all the advantages
of single skilful head from the beginning
to the end, there is no room for variation
from one day to another. or from year to
year. There is a specific uniformity in
the product that can never be secured in a
creamery, where the milk or cream is
gathered from many sources, all of which
are varied in their character, and the pro-
duct of which, in the aggregate, must be
simply an average of the whole. People

pie sauce and in quantity as desired. A
good rule is to have equal amounts of cider
and apples. Boil the cider three or four
hours before beginning to put in the ap-
pies and add fresh apples as fast as the
sauce boils away. 1t is necessary to keep
up constant stirring until all the apples
are reduced to pulp. Then add sugar to

FARM AND HOME.
THE BOOK OF THE WORLD.


Alone and quiet one still afternoon
Beside the placid margin of a lake,
! read an ancient Bndhhist His pen spake
Of change succeeding change, till like a tune
whose early buetnen sings again full soon,
That " bich II passed returns again to make
An endless chain OF being without break,
Round as the clear, white circle OF the moon.
Pondering long such dreamy eastern lore,
And taught by inner voices all the day
The silent world itself became my book,
w Within whose pages lay such wondrous store
OF earthly, heavenly wisdom, that pray
Forevermore upon the leaves TO look.
There came a little bird in jealous quest,
vi silken feathers, that she might impair
The slender mansion swinging lightly, where
Her callow, haltgrown aedgings had their
nest.
Later found the mother gone TO rest.
Within that perfect palace of her care,
And noticed how, with every breath of air
Arose and fell her softly rounded breast.
Then fell the night, while all the glory passed
OF daylight dying from the opal sky.
As nights all blending shadows hid the broad
Quintescent world, II seemed a. though the vast
But gentle sequence slowly sweeping Dy
Were but the passing of the breath of God.
Thus day will follow night, and darkness day;
And none can Say the course of light is run,
Even when night Is blackest the great sun
Swings nearer with the morning in his ray.
Thus the long year whirs round an endless
Which, being ended, only s begun,
When winter scarcely dreams OF being done.
W -DDhOtnfu rITlnS mas nAflSlsG winter gray.
This year Is but larger day and night
Wherein the earth herself with constant change
Hath daily toll, like us and daily rest.
Why seek the Arctic circle, where the light
And dark of one day fill the whole years range:
There shall the visible fact reward your quest.
White, ,bosomed spring, awake at years first
dawn,
Bathes in the rains and sees the polished sky
Reflect her cleaning beauty. Bathing by
She gowns herself In green, till all the mornings

Then may the swallows see, from where they fly,
Fair hroidered flowers upon her kirtle drawn.

Doth all the vesture of the earth appear
Till evening, when, with gold and crimson bright,
She wearies of her toilsome day; and throws
Aside her queenly raiment for the clear,
Delicious, dainty snow, her sable of night.
SO spring TO spring viii evermore succeed
AS breath succeeds breath, as day TO day,
Wherein the living and the life giving ray

And whispers magic messages, to lead

Raspberry Culture.

A. NJ. Purdy says: There is everything
in starting right in growing this fruit
successfully and proftably. Too many
persons allow the young, newly-set plants
to grow helter-skelter. when what is most
needed Is checking the new growth in
season. Plants set in the spring should
have their new shoots nipped off at tip
ends, when not exceeding one foot in
height, and, as the side branches grow,
nip these off at tip-ends when one foot to
fifteen inches long. If a year DID, allow
them to get two feet In height and length
when nipped off, and if set closely to.
getker in rows, the rows form perfect
hedge; when thus trimmed the rows
can be set so much nearer together. Thea
throw under the bushes good, heavy
mulch, and keep the cutl.
vator going between them and our
word for 1t you will not lack for tuIl
crops Of fruits for many years. To
those who have old plantations of black
berries and raspberries, see 10 it in
July or August that the new growth does
hut nip of at the tip ends when not more
than three feet high. We have become
satisfied that whether red raspberries are
grown 10y the hill or row system, too
many stalks must not be allowed to grow
Too many stalks or suckers will make any
red sort almost worthless. Red raspber-
rles should be grown so as to be worked
both ways allowing three to five stalks in
the hill, according to size and sickness.
We find when grown in hedge-rows the
berries are not so large and fine as those
grown in hills, and are not so easily
picked. Of course they can be planted
quite close together-sa for instance
four and one-half to FIVE feet each way
and if nlpped back when growing they
require no stakes. Grown thus in hills,
and each year small forkful of manure
thrown against each hill, plantation will
last from Is to 20 years if the old wood is
cut out every year
