Clearing Poultry Houses of Insect Pests.
The poultry house should be thor
oughly cleaned out before extreme cold
weather, and every lousa and mite in
the walls, nest boxes aid perches de-
stroyed with kerosene. Care should be
taken to see that there is no grain in the
straw used for nests, for if hen finds IA
single one she is almost certain to tear
the nest to pieces seeking for more.
When the nests in the poultry house are
clean, free from vermin and nicely lined
with soft material the pullets will nat
urally go to them when they begin lay
ing. When they are foul or hard or in
tested with verlnin the pullets drop their
eggs i'll the corners of the yard, off the
perches and almost anywhere. Some of
them are broken, the hens get taste Of
egg and the trials of the poultry keeper
have just begun, writes an Illinois cor
respondent in The American Agricul-
turist. For destroying insects he advises
kerosene as the best article. 1t is album
dant, cheap and sure death to lice, mites
and every other insect that it touches.
First thoroughly clean out the house
and then spray it with the kerosene. A
good spraying apparatus with cyclone
nozzle is best for doing this work, but it
can also be very effectively done with a
common garden syringe fitted with a
fine rose spray. Draw slowly when
drawing in the liquid, but force it out
as hard as you can. This will make a
fine spray, which will penetrate every
crack and crevice, however small it

Correspondence OF the Richmond Dlspatch.l
ABINGDON. Va, September s.-The Demo-
Gratis of Abingdon held quite an Cnthusi-
astic meeting recently and a Cleveland,
Stevenson, and Marshall club vas or
ganiZed, consisting Of about 100 members.
Judge +. Is. Hutton, our popular attorney
for the Commonwealth. was chosen presi-
dent Committees to look after the en-
rolment of members. the registration of
voters arrangements for public speaking,
&c, were appointed More than ordinary
interest was manifested IN this meeting.
The Thlrd-party sentiment in Washing
ton county is not strong and will decline
as the election-day draws nigh. What
strength it has. however Is drawn chiefly
from the Democratic party.
Our people are not sore over the failure
of the Hon Daniel TTigg to secure the
nomination for Congress from the Ninth
District. They recognize that the COM
mon sentiment that " Washington county
had had 1t long enough" -ather than any
real opposition to Mr. Trigg brought about
the nomination of that gallant Democrat,
Cyclone" Jim Marshall Mr. Marshall
was tho second choice of Mr.. Trigg s
friends, and he will not find in the district
a more earnest and ardent supporter than
Mr.. Trigg. Had the Hon. John A. Blu
chanan again consented to lead the Demo-
Gratis OF the Ninth District, he would have
been nominated by reclamation. He has
the respect and affection of the people of
this district as no one else has ever had.
Our people will naturally warm up as the
ectlOn-day draws nigh, and Washington
county can be depended on Tor her usual
Democratic majority.

venson reception and State Convention OF
Democratic Clubs to be held here next
week is TO be large affair. Last evening
at the meeting OF tho Cleveland-Carr Club
here matters were discussed and several
local committees reported the progress of
preparations. A motion was made that

company splendid time.
WHAT WILL TREY DO.
The Ques ion now arises, What
will the Mott faction of the Re-
publican party doYn If any men
ever were completely shut out these were
the men. The State and congressional
conventions were worked entirely by tue
Eayes machine. and the Mott faction had
no voice in anything. DIR. Mott himself

cratic ticket. What his lieutenants, such

tion. IL was whispered that Mr.. Harris
would be given the nomination for elector
from this (the Fourth district, but the
nominees both for Congress and elector
are regular machine-men. Another curious
phase of the situation is the satisfaction
Of the colored element. The whites al
lowed them to do.a good deal Of the speak
lug and blowing in the conventions and
that seems to have satisfied them.

POLITICS AT NEW KENT c. X.
The Issues Of the Day Ably Discussed by
Holmes Conrad and Others

fCorrcspondenceo Of the Richmond DIsoatch.l
NEW KENT COURTHOUSE, September g.
Political questions were discussed here To-
dav. Mr.. Grant, People's-party candidate
for Congress. spoke first. then Mr.. Julian
Rufin. OF Hanover. His speech was IN
eenious. in good taste, and as good as can
be made on his side. He said that he did
not see how any man, how any farmer es-
pecially, can vote with the hepuDiicAh
party. lie was listened TO respectfully
Major Holmes Conrad took the stand,
and from the first period of his speech
startled the people With his matches
oratory. He said that be could not see IN
what he differed from these Third-party
people. He could face Republican-party
mau and saw TO him that the curse OF
Almighty God would be upon him and his
party for the woe they have heaped upon
the people of this land.
lie said that the main idea Of the Re
publican party was TO educate the people
to the belief that the government Of this
country IS simply source OF wealth. IL
has been at its wits end TO discover.means
by which TO squander the surplus revenue.
OTHER MEASURES.
He discussed the silver question and the
bank question with great power. He said
| convention that the Republican party had
! fulfilled all its pledges but one, and that
the convention had so said. He could not
be followed in his discussion of this ques:
| ton. The people heard him with bated
| breath. He produced feeling of horror
| as he held up the future under the opera
ton of the force bill and was yociferously
| applauded.
They had the three People's-party speak
| ers IN a corner. and | have never seen
profounder impression produced by this
great mans demonstration OF the faislty
| Of their position.
He was followed by w. d. Harris, OF
Shenandoah, of tho PEOPLES party, who
said, among other things. that he had not
| left the Democratic party, but they had
parted company. He was applauded at the
close by few colored people.
OUR CANDIDATE.
Hon. George ID. Wise closed the discus
| sion IN one of his ablest speeches. lie dis
cussed the silver question and said among
| other things that if the management OF
our finances were to be managed by men
| who knew no more about finance than the

to-day seem TO know Heaven knows the
country would be worse on than she
