but their support on those terms must
be declined. No dickers which in
voive any concessions to silver under
any circumstances will be permitted
by the Republican masses. and it is
safe to assume that the party in Con-
gress will not make or accept any.
Let the men who, while still claiming
to be Republicans, puttheir allegiance
to silver above their devotion to the
tariff and their regard for the welfare
of the Republican party, flock by
themselves or stay with the Populists
and silver Democrats, where they be-
long.
The promise made by some OF the
members OF the committee that the
bill will be moderate is in any event
exceedingly likely to be kept. 1t will
be framed on RebuIican lines. every
body believes. and consequently the
protective principle will be kept in
view in it throughout. But it will not
be a measure which will make parti-
san capital for the opposition. In
the business of framing and revising
tariff bills the Republicans have hao
considerable experience. and though
conditions are constantly changing,
this experience will be worth some
thing to them at the present time. Al
terations of any kind in the customs
schedules disturb trade to some eX-
tent, as everybody knows. This CON
sideration the Republicans will keep
constantly in mind, and they will also
be careful TO bring the disturbance TO
an early end by getting the bill on the
statute book as soon as practicable.

Home Rule In Cuba.

home rule by Spain might have hat
some weight al the beginning OF the

reconciliation is out of the question
on any terms. When President Cleve.

insurgents should not be insisted up.

practically comedies their whole case.
In other words, he admits that their
cause is a good one and that they
have achieved Il degree of success
which entities them to recognition as
something than a lot of rebels
against the Government to which they
are said to owe allegiance.
The fact has been established that
the insurrection can be continued
indefinitely. In view of the failure of
two years of strenuous effort to sup
press It Or even to make any progress
in that respect, it is reasonable TO be-
lieve that in the end It is sure to PFC

plain words that ''the inability OF
Spain to deal successfully with the in

it is demonstrated that her sovereignty

The Senate of1ss7-9 and the Tariff

Presumably, of course, the Ways
and Means Committee, when 1t starts
in a few weeks hence on its work of
putting the tariff bill into shape. will
take the uncertain partisan complex
ion Of the neXtS Senate into the
Any sort of a tariff bill which a Re-
publican committee would shane would
be sure to pass the House of the
Congress of 1879, for in it the sound
money Republicans will have a fair
sized working majority, but in the
Senate of that Congress there will
I be a tie between the Republicans
on the n side and all the rest of the
clements on the Other-gold Demo-
Gratis, silver Democrats, Populists and
boiling silver Republicans-or else
these elements will be slightly in the
preponderance. If the Republicans
elect a member in Kentucky they Will
tie the Senate, giving the casting vote
to the Republican Eice-President.
"hlle II the S~enatorshlp goes to the
gold Democrats, who appear to hold
the balance in the Kentucky Legis-
lature, the Republicans will be in a
minority, for gold Democratic sup
port for Republican measures does
not cover the tariff.
There is a chance hat some of the
bolting Senators at the St. Louis
Convention, who pretend still to be
protectionists, will turn in and help
the Republicans on the tariff, but it
will be decidedly unsafe to count upon
any such aid, and probably the franz
ers of the bill will not reckon them
among its supporters. The boilers
are likely tohold out forbids oftfavors
to silver as the price OF their votes.

DAIRY SUGGESTIONS.

Don't neglect to prepare a special
green crop to tide the cows over sum-
mer drought.
First-class butter, If sold in the right
way, always brings a profit, but low
grade rarely ever pays the cost of pro-
duction.
The consensus of opinion among sue
cessful dairymen seems to be that it is
better to raise the dairy cows than to
purchase them.
The first requisite in profitable but
ter making Is to have the right kind Of
cows-those that produce the largest
amount of butter fat at the least ex-
pense.
There is NO such thing as keeping
milk pure and sweet in dirty milk ves-
sells. They must be frequently scalded
and we'll dried. Cold water won't clean
milk vessels.-Journal of Agriculture.
The North Carolina experiment sta
ton proposes plan for buying and sell
ing cows. The rule is to pay for the cow
at the rate Of $12 per gallon of milk
given per day that is rich enough to
show 3h per cent. of fat, To this price
add or substract one dollar for every
one-fourth of one per cent. By this rule
a COW Is bought entirely on her merits.

Young Animals,

BkAM M2lk 10 the Food Par Excellence for
Young Animals.
To an inquiry for the best ration for
mares in foal and for colts from one to
three years old, the Country Gentleman
replies that there is no better collection
Of foods for both the brood mares and
the colts than roots, oats, wheat and
bran and middlings, linseed meal anu
skim milk, though other materials, such
as barley, corn to limited extent, malt
sprouts and other by-products may be
used.
A grain mixture consisting of four
parts ground oats, four parts wheat
bran Tor middlings, not the finest), and
one part hnseed meal, will do all that
any mixture will in promoting the kind
of growth that is desired.
In the case of the mares, the quantity
Of grain ration that should be fed de.
pends so much upon conditions-such
as size, the quantity of work, whether in
CESSATION or sucking the foal-that we
are sure it will be more sensible for
practical feeder to govern the ration by
his personal observation than by any
arbitrary rule which we might venture
to suggest.
Skim milk would be a food par excel
lence for the colts, even for those three
years old; and if supply of this can be
had for2Ocents or less per 100 pounds, no
more economical food could be found
for part of the ration. If the milk is
fed, the linseed meal may be left out of
the ration, and the bran and oats re-
tanned, in the proportion of one pound
OF the mixture to six pounds of the milk
for hhe younger colts, the proportion Of
grain increasing as the animals grow
older. The skim milk would also be
q splendid food for mares while suck
ling their foal. In any case, especially
II al other foods are dry, roots are ex-
ceedingly desirable as an occasional
feed, and they may be fed daily to colts
with excellent results.

How to Prepare Tobacco Din.

Speaking of tobacco dip, a writer
says it will require for 100 sheep 100
gallons of water, and to make that
strong enough to kill ticks and the scab
it will require the addition of all the
fluid that can be extracted from 25
pounds of tobacco. The tobacco should
be thoroughly STEPPED and boiled so as
to get all the strength out of it. To
this mixture ten pounds of sulphur
should be mixed separately in pail of
hot water, and after being thorough
ly stirred should be added to the dip.
Ii tobacco stems are used, at least
three times the weight mentioned
should be steeped.
