Democrats of Minnesota Are Opposed &c
Unlimited Free Coinage.
ST. PAUL, June l3.-Free silver was
downcd at the Democratic state
convention by a vote of 426 to 1923 and
a delegation sent to Chicago instructed
for sound money. D. w. Lawler, can
didate for governor four years ago
heads the list of delegates.
The financial plank of the platform is
as follows:
We are unQualiticdly in favor of the
present gold standard of value. We favor
the use Of both gold and silver as money
and believe that our government shoulG
coin and keep in circulation as IL part OF
the circulatOry medium as large ar
amoun of silver as can be employed with
the existing parity of value between the
unit in gold and the unit in silver. We
are opposed to a descent to monometallsn
of any kind and particularly to a silver
mOnometallism with its deprecated ant
d~epreciating standard of silver. We
therefore oppose the free coinage of silvel
by our OWL government at the ratio Of II
to l, without cooperation on the part OF
the other commercial nations of thu
world. 1t would reduce this country to &
condition of silver recommendation, en-
failing upon us financial panic and com
mercial and industrial disaster. We ar.
utterly and irrevocably opposed to tn.
adoption of any such policy

TneAy there has been a conference of

dates, those present being Platt for Nor

Mr.. Allison and an Eastern man repre-
senting Mr.. Reed. 1t was understood
that the conference was not with any
hope of defeating the nomination of
Mckinley, because Mr.. Quay and Mr..
Marley have already conceded the
nomination Of the Ohio man on the first
ballot, but hat it was proposed to pre-
pare a platform on the money question
which was to be insisted upon at all
men as one OF the
Demands of the Opposition.
1t was understood that the declaration
was unequivOcally for gold. In this
connection it is said the declaration
will be so pronounced that it will not
be acceptable to the great middle West,
which is here solid for Mckinley, and
may precipitate a fight. This is one of
the many stories that were in circula-
ton indicating the arrival of Mr.. Platt
and Mr.. Quay had made the opposition
more formidable than was supposed.
AS the Mckinley men here are for the
most part talking in favor Of a strong
declaration in favor Of gold they say
that there cannot be very much diff

Things for Poultry Raisers to Remember.
The following suggestions are found in
the English Fanciers' Gazette:
Always carefully look over your flock
once day, and if you see any birds
mopy or dropping their wings, remove,
them then and there, as one i'll bird may
effect all the rest.
Always keep some Epson salts and
sweet oil by you, as you may want them
at any moment.
Always give just enough food at one
time that it will all be eaten up; none
should be left lying around.
Always give as great variety OF
food as possible; constant chanAe Of
di. t is the way to get chickens on.
Always give your birds a little hemp
seed and cooked meat when moulting.
Always keep the fl )ors OF the house
ard coops we'll covered with sand or
ashes.
The Florida agriculturist. [volume] (DeLand, Fla.) 1878-1911, 1896-05-27
The Best Floor.

The best and most satisfactory floor for
ahen house.is dry clean dirt uponan earth
floor. The earth in the house should
be filed from six inches to one foot
above the ground surrounding the house
outside: this will prevent it from becom-
ng damp and disagreeable to the oc-
cupants. Under the roOsts should be
thrown a shovel full or more of loose,
dry dirt every morning, and the drop
pings removed at least once week and
the floor swept or scraped. A scratch
ing space should be divided off by set
ting up boards foot high, making a
pen in which should be kept loose straw
or chaff to the depth of four to six in.
ches and all loose grain fed fowls thrown
in this pen. This will keep the
hens busy and the busy hens lays
eggs. This should not be allowed
to become foul, but should be renewed
occasionally. A liberal supply OF air
slaked lime scattered over the floor will
do much toward keeping the house in a
good wholesome condition.-Interstate
Poultryman.

more of considerably smaller size, and
Handbags produced a much greater
number of very small eggs. The Hou-
dams, however, were confined much OF
the time, the Leghorns some of the time,
while the Hamburgs had almost un-
limited run most Of the year. This was
fifteen or twenty years ago, and I can
not now give more specific records, for I
did not then appreciate the Importance
OF collecting them. Later experience
with Minorcas, which laid very large
eggs, was to the effect that they were
less prolific than the Leghorns.
Eggs from nine Leghorn hens, laying
on the average for year. 143 eggs, aver
aged 1.SO ounce each, while eggs from
nine other hens fed the same, and whose
average egg production was fraction
over SO eggs, averaged 1.91 ounces each.
Two hens averaging ia eggs each dur
ing their second year, produced eggs
that averaged 1913 ounces in weight, and
two other similar hens, whose egg pro-
duction was rs eggs each, laid eggs aver
aging exactly the same in weight. A
Cochin hen whose eggs average 1922
ounces in weight, laid 1872 during the
year. Another (same breed and food)
laid 100 eggs, averaging 1.9O ounce
Of two Leghorns whose eggs averaged
the same in weight, viz, POI ounces, one
laid 1872 eggs and the other 62 eggs dur.
ing the year. Individual instances show
such variations as to indicate no general
relation between number and size of
eggs, and enough data are not available
tojustify conclusions from the averages.
have always thought, however, that
he hen laying very large eggs. as rule
laid fewer than the average.-Wm. ?.
Wheeler, in Rural New York.
The Florida agriculturist. [volume] (DeLand, Fla.) 1878-1911, 1896-05-27
How Hens Vary as Layers.

In regard to the number and size of
eggs | remember two pullets that laid
much larger eggs than others Of the
same age and breeding and more than
the average number. One of the pullets
was somewhat understood. There were
also two other pullets laying very small
eggs, and much more than the average
in number, blank days occurred at long
intervals. These observations extended
only during the few months OF Matching,
not for the entire season. So far as
breeds go, it has been my experience to
get the fewest eggs from hens laying
larger ones. From Houdans, laying
very large eggs, very satisfactory num-
bers were obtained. LeghOrns gave
