For one we will be heartily glad
when the election is over. If it IS
to be Mckinley we will try and
stand it with the balance of them.
If Bryan triumphs, we hope that
the opposition will De of the same
forgiving spirit. Meanwhile our
interests are identical. We have
no gold bugs, nor silver bugs.
What benefits MY neighbor is bound
to benefit me in some degree. If
Mckinley is elected we hope that
events will prove that we are and
have been mistaken, for God help
the poor if times DO not improve in
some shape. The lesson of hard
times is being brought home to the
people Of This land with terrible
force. And pity the party that
gets into power at this election and
does not bring relief to the laboring
masses of the country. The people
are aroused. II Bryan and free
silver wins and relief be not brought
about, the people will utterly de-
stroy them, politically, If Nc
Kinley wins and his shibboleth ot
protection and gold docs not bring
relief, nothing will be left of it but
the Office holders. Reliefthe people
wants and must have.

The contest of J. H. Bryant VS..
Peter Hagen was up in the local
land Office today, and the hear
ing was postponed until December
Is. In it is involved title to 100
acres, a little northwest of Toledo,
in Lincoln county. Hagen died
before his final proof had heen
passed by the local Office, and in
due time his claim was cancelled.
Bryant entered a coal land contest
of Hagen's homestead, but that was
held up because of imperfections.
Before Hagen's death he mortgaged
a part of the claim to U. G. Hale,
of Albany, who has since foreclosed
the mortgage, and-~retaes in and
protests against Bryant obtaining
any rights in the land. Bryant has
been opening a coal mine in the
face of Hale's protest, and that
matter has gone through the circuit
court, and is now in the supreme
court, for adjudication OF title,
while the real title has never pasSe :
from the government.-Oregonian.

You have the zodiacal sign Leo,
which the sun rules, rising at birth and
therefore the Sun is your ruling planet
or signihcator. The sign Leo usually
denotes a wiry, muscular, slender fig
ure, with wide shoulders in proportion
to the rest Of the body; the complexion
fair and ruddy; the hair and eyes light;
the eyes are large and in some cases
they would be called 'popeyes." You
are of a sunny, cheerful temperament;
you are charitable and generous, too
much so for your own good; you are
very restless when not busy at some
thing; you are very apt to borrow
trouble in some way or cross bridges
before you get to them; you are appar-
emily quick tempered yet seldom get
your deep anger. aroused; yet when you
do you become very fierce like the lion:
when your anger is once aroused you
will give somebody that was the cause
of it the full benefit Of your opinion re-
gardless Of their position or rank. You
have more than average pride and am
bition and have a natural gift Of
language.

destroyed the raising Of sheep for wool,
1t has increased the demand for good
mutton, so that this production has
been benefited. There Is a surety that
sheep raising for the better quality OF
mutton will be profitable, and the sort
that will bring the best results can be
raised In small fiocks on the farm at
less cost and trouble than any other
farm animal. If, as may be expected,
wool production again becomes profit
able, the farmer will have two good
sources Of income instead Of one; in
the meanwhile having a supply Of the
best of meat for family use. Every
farmer should have small flock Of the
best Of mutton sheep. The raising Of
scrubs will not accomplish the desired
results.

John Pedelty, writing in Rural Life,
says: Mt is time the surplus honey was

or and the covers glued down tight
ready to put the bees in the cellar OF
winter quarters, or If you are going to
winter outside (not the best way In
this cold country they should DO

Beekeepers in Iowa as rule can re-
port the best crop Of honey for many
years, not SO good, though, as some OF
the buyers try to make US think. The
price is reasonable compared with other
things, and will not get better when
the small farmer beekeepers has mar
keted his product for what he can get
In groceries. ,''. Z ;,''., :
Comb honey after coming OF the hive
should be put where it won't, freeze,
and when sold taken out and scraped
or cleaned up. The partly filled Sec
lions can be used at home, fed back to
the bees or extracted, as you prefer.
Don't neglect your neighbors and the
home market. They like honey and
will pay good price for 1t. would
sell at home If could do as well as by
sending it to the large cities. II not
grade 1t, crate 1t up good and ship.
Don't let your grocery man have 1t all
his own way.
The beekeopers who answer ques-
lions in the American Bee Journal and
those at the Lincoln convention seemed
to be down on the idea Of importing lat
the governments expense) the Apis
DOrsata" or giant bees Of India. They
think the money can be used better for
the beekeepers in other lines, thinking
these bees are not much good for this
country.
l read of handy arrangement q
while ago to help move bees in the cell
lar and honey into the house or move
anything heavy. Stretch a plain wire
from the apiary to the house. On this
suspend a car (strong box) by door
hanger with two little wheels to run
on the wire. Put on the load and 1t will
run easily and without jolting.
Beekeeping Is a knowledge OF small
items without which only ordinary re-
suits are obtained. One Of the impor-
tant things is the selection Of the hive.
The fact that the dOve-tailed Lang
stroth hive is used the most by practi-
cal beekeepers shows its utility, and let
1t go to show the far-slghtedness OF Its
inventor, the lamented Rev. L. l..

Fall Manurlng.-There is much less
waste by fall manuring than is COM
monty supposed. If fresh manure from
stables is drawn out as made, and
spread over the surface, the winter
SHOWS and rains leach through it, and
whatever soluble fertility 1t contains
slowly soaks into the soil, Unless the
surface is frozen, or the land is flood
ed from running water coming from a.
bove, there is never any washing of the
surface soil to carry off its fertility.
On the contrary, the manure is much
better mixed with the soil than it could
be If left until spring, when, If plowed
under, the rains seldom come heavy
enough to thoroughly soak the manure
in the soil.-EX.

From the Nebraska station, where
the sugar beet industry is receiving spe-
cial attention, comes bulletin in which
fall blowing is urged for this crop. Ac-
cording to this bulletin, the sooner tha
stubble and weeds are plowed under,
if only to a depth Of three inches, the
better, followed by spike harrow to
make a loose layer of soil on top to
prevent evaporation. 1t has been shown
that land so prepared lost only one
third rs much water by evaporation as
land having a firmly packed surface.
Unless the land is very rich spread well
roited manure after the shallow plow-
ing, which will add to the yield and
probably something to the sugar con-
tent. Subsoil and surface pillow in the
TALL. or If that cannot be done pillow as
deeply as possible. The extreme dry
aess of air and soil in most sections
where sugar beets are grown makes it
important that manure should be we'll
.otted. If the beets are to follow corn,
clear off the stalks and harrow thor
oughly. In the fall the pillow can be
run II or Is inches Deep while If nor
done until spring it is hardly safe ia
.urn up the soil much below the aver
age depth of previous plowing-four
to six inches.

Old Apple Trees.
7. G. Springer.

The theory is quite prevalent
among many farmers that apple trees
should be cut down when they cease to
be productive in consequence Of the
decay Of the branches. writes q. M.
Shaw in N. 2. Farmer. Oftentimes,
and in most cases, such trees can be
restored to vigorous growth and
healthy condition by cutting away the
old decayed portion and allowing new
branches to take their places. This
will nearly always follow when trees are
we'll cared for and liberal supply Of
potash be given them. / saw an apple
tree recently on Orchard hill in the
town Of Kensington, in this state that
was the remaining tree Of an orchard
set out ninety years ago. All Of the
other trees were cut down thirty-hve
years ago. This one, bearing faVorite
apple, by the pleadings of large fam
lily Of children, was allowed to remain.
OF late years the ground around 1t has
been cultivated, and 1t Is a constant
bearer. 1t is now covered with dense
green foliage, and the limbs have made
a growth this year Of over foot. Its
condition to-day shows the folly Of cut
ting down trees as soon as they cease
to grow and bear fruit. Plow around
them, or where this cannot be done use
a spring tooth harrow. Mulch them we'll
and put on good supply of muriate of
potash, cut off the old, decaying, moss
covered branches, grow out a new top
of smooth wood and you will have the
pleasure of seeing large, smooth fruit
growing, where once were only small,
inferior apples. Age has but little to do
with causing tree to decay. One of
the apple trees set out by the Arcadians
more than $50 years ago, is still stand
ing near their old home at Grand Pre-,
Nova Scotia. and in 1894 was loaded
with fruit.

is that person on stepping out Of his
