Strike Against Machinery.

y strike is going on at the Lefme
cigar factory, in St. Petersburg, the
trouble growing out of the introduce
tion Of new machinery. A serious
riot was one of the results of the
strike, the strikers smashing the new
machines. The dissatisfied work

A Mammoth Project to Open
the Ore Bodies Under
That City.
RICH MINES UNDER THE CITY.
Every Basement Dug Exposes
Rich Ore.

There is good deal of quite ex-
citement in the city over the revival
Of the project to tunnel Butte. Plans
have been made for this scheme
three or four times. and at one time
operations on a small scale were act
ually begun. But now, it is stated,
the scheme will be actually put into
operation and the tunnel will be
driven from the southern part of the
city clear to Walkervle.
1t has long been the belief of
many old mining men in Butte that
tho richest ore in this camp lies right
under the city of Butte North,
south, east and west Of the city lea Is
abound, and it might, therefore, reas-
onably be inferred that there are rich
leads also where Butte now stands.
But, in addition to this Inference is
the fact that scarcely celler is dug
for building in Butte but that lead
matter is brought to light, indicating
the wealth that is imprisoned down
under the busy city. Only week
or two ago the digging Of the new
building being erected by Mrs.
Jerry Roach showed indications
which would have created a furore
of excitement in any place but Butte.
Here il is so usual to strike leads
that little comment is excited.
The plan is to tap the rich leads
which runs under the city, particu-
larly the Smoke House, which is gem
orally considered the richest in these
parts. A company is being formed
and sufficient capital will be raised
to carry the plan through. The
shaft sunk by Pat Mullins in West
Galena street, near Maine, just be-
hind the Curtis 4 Majors block. will
be used as starting point. This
shaft is down sufficient depth for
the purpose Of the syndicate. From
the bottom Of the shaft the tunnel
will be driven due north To Walker
vile, keeping close under Main
street, in all probability. Engineers
have been consulted in regard to the
project.
The company is not yet completed.
1t is understood that Captain Charles
II. Palmer, lately superintendent of
the Butte & Boston campany, is at
the head Of the scheme. Captain
Palmer announced his intention Of
going to Europe several weeks ago,
but has DELAYED his tri p and it is the
general belief that he is getting the
tunnel company into form. 1t is not
given out authortatiely that Captain
Palmer is in he scheme, but that is
the general report. Both local and
Eastern capital will be interested in
the scheme. Operations will be be-
gun very oon.-Anaconda Stand

The Political View

AAO oAASAC1A Wow
The supporters of the gold stand
ard, who think the agitation for the
restoration of silver is the result of
theory and not of situation, are very
confident that the elections have dis
posed of the situation. 1t is true
tnat in Kentucky and in Nebraska
the vote was not favorable to the sill
yer cause, these being the only two
states in which that issue was pre-
sented with defniteness. tits equal
ly true. however, that IA vote for sill
yer lies implicit in the general decis-
ion of the country against the present
administration. Before the people,
Mr.. Cleveland's administration i,
identified with the present situation
of trade and industry. 1t was voted
into power because times were fel,
to be growing bad through the gen
eral fall of prices. 1t has had what
it asked, to make the times better.
Yet during every year of its occu
pancy Of power, times have grown
worse than before. At the same
time it has no plan or program for
their improvement. 1t asks nothing
but more effective means to safeguard
the surplus of gold in the treasury,
AS though the nations chief end were
to maintain that surplus. Given
that, it will fold its hands in its lap
and hope for heaven to send better
days. So Mr.. Carlisle intimated to
the New York Chamber of Gem
merce ut their dinner last Tuesday.
His speech had no other point than
this.
Just as in 1910, the people have
turned upon their fainent administra-
ton, which acknowledges no respon
ibility for the general distress. They
have not so much voted the republi-
cans in as the democrats out. The
most they have done for the republi-
can party Is to decree it a chance to
solve the problem by re-establishing
national prosperity. And so far as
the republican program goes it is a
good one. 1t will be natural be-
nefit to replace the present mischiev
tariff hy one more protective in char
acter. But no tariff Legislation will
check the fall of prices, and place
our producing classes in a position
to meet their debt obligations. In
less the party can deal with that
problem promptly and vigorously,
the people will vote it out as prompt
ly and deal with it as emphatically
as they have dealt with the demo-
Gratis. The approval accorded to the
party is IA purely conditional one,
and the conditions cannot be fulfilled
by any Legislation Oh the tariff, how
ever excellent. This was shown by
the approach of financial trouble even
before the elect IN Of 1892. which is
now all but forgotten in view of the
gravcr disasters which that event
helped to precl pltatc.
1t is notable also that ~ improve.
meut of business has followed the
republican victory. The prospect Of
IA better tariff, therefore, has not suf-
feed to restore confidence. Prices
continue to fall; large failures '.re re-
ported; operations in several lines Of
production have all but ceased. The
tariff is no cure-all. American.

In winter 1t will be found that the
use of corn, oats, wheat, buckwheat
and barley will give better results than
when corn alone is used, even II moth
ing but grain is given. This is suf-
fcient proof that corn is not perfect
food. Every farmer knows that when
corn has been fed for quite awhile the
hens will begin to refuse 1t, which Is
due to their being well supplied
with the elements contained in corn.
They require a change, because corn
no longer provides them with what
they need.-Farm and Fireside.

The Color of Beeswax.

DIR. c. c. Miller, in a recent number
of Gleanings, gives the following
''straw'' on the color of beeswax:
"Who of us hasn't wondered what it is
that gives the bright-yellow color to
beeswax? Wax is generally considered
white when first produced in little
scales. Cowan says it is always tinted,
the color coming from the pollen con-
sumed. But what makes it get yellow
er in the hive? A German writer says
that, like the young of nearly all ami
mails, the young bee, on first emptying
Its bowels, discharges feces of intense
yellow, and this colors the comb.

POULTRY DUST BATH.
Why the Wise Farmer VIII Provide Dust
Boxes for His Birds.

"hy Ahr NAse aIA4cf w EEotlue DuAN
Boxes for His Birds.
Nearly II not quite all species Of
fowls use the dust bath. They choose
q spot of fine, dry soil and scrape little
holes, where they pulverize the dirt
until 1t is reduced to a fine dust. In
this they roll and shake their feathers
and allow the dust TO penetrate to the
skin. 1t appears that In some way
this Is deleterious to the parasites
which infest the plumage or the skin.
1t has been said by some naturalists
that as all insects breathe - not
through the mouth as warm-blooded
animals do, but through little OPEN
ing in the skin situated In rows along
the side of the body-the particles Of
C.lst close these openings, so that para
sites die OF suffocation as quickly as
quadruped would if held under water
This has been denied by some sem
lists, who say that these holes >e-
Tended by very delicate but eiicetive
apparatus that makes 1t impossil' FOR
any foreign matter to enter, no liter
how minute it may be. Be this as it
may, know that wild birds take dust
baths whenever the weather and the
state of soil permit. Nature is good
guide, and whether the dust bath is
TOR the prevention and absorption of
effete matter which has become too
odorous, or whether il acts as an In.
sectide, it is certainly advantageous to-
fowls or they would not use the dust
bath. say that the careful poultry
keeper will provide dust boxes fov
birds, filed with fine dust, coal ashes,
thoroughly dried and mixed with in
sect powder. 1t makes but little differ
ence which of these varieties of soil
you use; the principal part is to have II
clean. That is, not a highly manured
soil, but a comparatively unfertile one
is preferable. The next qualification
is that it must be perfectly dry.-AL

POULTRY YARD REFORM.

A New idea In Changeable Yards with
Separate Buildings.
The plan suggested In the illustra-
ton is one of the changeable yards
with separate buildings, each build,
ing being divided into three apart
ments. The dimensions may be as pre-
ferred, but with yards 5ox10O feet, the
space taken up will be about an acre
and half. The house would necessa-
rily be 16x5o feet, or about 18 feet
square for each apartment. The OPEN
ings from the houses to the yards are
shown at A A, etc. The two mid.
die yards will be occupied by the fowls
of the middle apartment, and the yards
on the right and left by the fowls In
the apartments on those sides The
yards marked B may be occupied by
the fowls, while grass or any kind of
green food Is growing In the yards
marked G. When the green food is
ready the fowls are turned into those
yards, and the other yards arc then
plowed and seeded down. By this
method green food Is always growing,

GROUND PLAN OF HOUSES AND YARDS,

and the droppings turned under. As
1t is not necessary for the green food to
reach a height of but few inches the
changes will be frequent. A novelty
In the arrangement is that the fowls
are not opposite to each other in the
different yards, and hence quarreling
or fighting through the fence is thus
avoided, space of so feet separating
the fiocks. Any form Of house may be
used, and sixteen hens and male may
be kept in each apartment, thus allow
ing about one hundred fowls to the en-
tire space. This plan gives 10 feet In
the poultry house to each fowl, while
the changeable yards not only supply
green food, but give fresh ground and
clean yards, as well as ample room and
greater variety of food.-Farm and
