Gen, J. B. Weaver:
DEs MONIES, Ia, Aug. 81, '94.
mar Sir and Bro: Your letter came
this morning. There is nothing what

dominated for Congress by the Popu-
lists in the 9th Iowa district. On Aug
mt Sth. following, I was again renomi-
mated BY the Democrats. The platforms
# the two conventions do not conflict
IN the least particular, and the outlook
for success is excellent. I have been
elected to Congress three times under
similar circumstances. We are simply
making an earnest effort to throw off
the ghackles of the foreign and demes-
tic money power, and there is neither
"1rinbleneSS nor ShddOW of turning TN

Send in Subscriptions Weekly.
John Brock, Currituck county,
sends four new subscribers and renews.
Thanks.
"A B Seely, Pasquotank county,
sends for ten copies of THE Progress
sTvE FARMER for distribution.
Peter Mcintosh, Davidson county,
renewing, writes: I am still highly
pleased with THE PROGRESSIVE FARMER.
A P Whitehead, Craven county,
sends three renewals and one new sub
scriber. He says his Alliance is on the
upgrade and determined to stand firm.
Thomas L. Lea, Caswell county,
sends two renewals and writes that the
people are in the middle of the road in
his section and will go to the ballot box
in good shape.
e A Moser, Forsyth county, sends
two renewals and writes: I'VE can't
do without your paper. It is a grand
one, and a great educator. If more of
our people would read it, the reform
cause would grow. Bro Moser says he
is in the fight to the finish.
The following friends have also
sent subscriptions or renewals during
the week: r Y Barnes, Hartford

House, T Grady, Wake, and others.
Two subscribers at st. Paul's, N.
c., write us that not a single paper
went to that office last week, and they
wish to know why. We can't explain
it. The papers were mailed here
promptly and we think the p~ostofice
officials here always send them out
promptly. The mail agents on the
railroads are very reliable. In most
cases the fault is at the local Office.
But we have had no complaints from
st. Paul's before.

NOTE TO THE

have just returned from a trip to
Norfolk, Va, and I find that it pays
the farmer when shipping beef cattle
to only ship those in frst-class order
smoothe, well fattened, staTTfed cattle
and weighing 700 to 900 pounds. This
is the most desirable weight. There is
nothing that pays better than the extra
condition IN which you can place your
cattle on the market. The market price
is low now, only 81 to 3 cts. lean ship
to Norfolk or Richmond, Va but very
little demand now and markets over
stocked. / wishl.also to say that our
brethren lose by sending very small
sized chickens to market. They
are hard to dispose of at a very
low price, while good, we'll grown
chickens are ready sale On a dull mar
ket at fair prices. Be ready for the
egg market which will open about the
LIST of September next. Our Boston
house is anxious to handle eggs in car
load lots weekly. None but first class
eggs should be handled.

DIRECTIONS
For Preparing, Packing and Shipping
Poultry for the Boston Market.

For Preparing, Packing and Shipping
Poultry for the Boston Market.
Killing and Dressing.AFood in crop
Injuries the appearance, is liable to
sour, and purchasers object to paying
for this worse than useless weight;
therefore, keep from food twelve hours
before killing. Ali poultry, but more
especially turkeys, should be killed by
bleeding in the neck, and picked while
the body is warm; and in no case
should poultry be scalded; wet-picked
poultry is not wanted in this market,
and will not sell for what it is really
worth. As o o as the poultry is
picked, take off the head at the throat,
strip the blood out of the neck, peel
back the skin a little, removed portion
of the neck bone, then just before pack
ing, except in warm weather, draw the
skin over the end and tie and trim
neatly. Draw the i~ntestines, making
the incision as small as possible, and
leave the gizzard, heart, etc. in. Pull
out the wing and tail feathers clean.
Undrawn poultry can be sold 20 a
limited extent when there Is no other
to be had, provided there is no food in
the crop, or entrails, but as a rule has
to goat very low prices.
Packing.-Poultry should be entirely
cold, but not frozen, before being
packed. If packed with the animal
heat in, it win be almost sure to spoil.
Sort your poultry carefully, and have
the No 1 stock of uniform quality.
Pack the No. 2 stock in separate pack
ages. Ifyou have any old bull turkeys,
put them in a separate package or With
No. 3 stock. Line the boxes with clean
paper, but never use straw in packing
and wrap the birds in paper. Pack az
closely as possible, backs upward, legs
out straight, and see that the boxes are
SC full that when the covers are nailed
on. there can be no possibility of the
contents shifting about, Boxes are
the best packages, and should contain
from 100 to 300 pounds. Larger boxes
: jnconvenient TO handle. and more
liable TO pet injured.

THE ALLIANCE PRODUCE Elk.
CHANGE.

DEAR BRETHREN:-The alliance Pro-
duce Exchange" is open for the hand
ling of farm products. We do not
purchase your products but will sell
for you to the best advantage possible.
Write US what you have to sell and
will let you know about what we can
get for it. Eggs are higher here than
In New York and we have been getting
better prices. Think we will be able
to handle more and more as our plans
for putting only fresh eggs on market
become known. Poultry is in great
demand and we think for the next
three months If not all the summer it
will bring remunerative prices. Can
furnish shipping coops and simply
charge rent or sell them to you if de-
sired. We can handle bacon, lard,
fish, wheat, -four, corn, meal, potatoes,
&c. Prices are lower on all products
than they have been for years. We
have sent notice to all of our shippers
not to send any more eggs North for
the present as it does not pay. There
were more than 30, 900, 600 eggs sent
into New York last week. We will
try to handle all poultry and eggs
shipped here to your advantage. Do
not send eggs by express unless rates
are very low.
