Prosperous fndIana Man.
In speaking Of swine breeding by
the professional breeder and also by
the general farmer. James Riley, before
the Huntington county farmers insti-
tute, said. although there was adepres-
sion In the swine market, he would
advise going ahead regardless Of the
low prices. Prices would no better
next year.
Preparations should be made to caro-
for swine before commencing in this
industry. Every farmer should have
a hog house and a hog ranch. The hog
house should be SO arranged that IL 10
easy OF access from the several lots
into which the feeding ranch Is d.
vided, and provided with feeding floors,
sleeping rooms, water fountains and
properly constructed feeding troughs.
Hogs must have clean quarters and per-
feet sanitation. They must have fresh
water all the time, plenty of shade In
the summer, and lots sufficiently large
TO afford good exercise. by providing
healthy quarters and keeping them
clean there would be less swine disease.
Farmers should study the makeup
and conformation of the hog. He
should be full-chested and of good
constitutional vigor. Every farmer
should educate himself upon the points
that make a good hog. Plenty of clover
pasture should be provided for the hogs,
especially the brood sows. A month be-
fore narrowing time the SOW should be
put In one of the ranch lots and fed
bran slops. After narrowing feed slops
made partially OF shorts. When the
pigs are four weeks old train them to
eat. and feed good, rich slops made
of shorts and milk. Feed the pigs no
grain until they weigh about hum
dred pounds. Fat them in the clover
pasture. Raise two sets of pigs, March
and April and October.
The speaker does not sell any wheat,
but feeds IL ground tn his hogs. He
does not cook it. Claims il is healthier
raw; also more economical. Advises
growing beets for swine.
Regards care and good sanitation the
best methods to keep OF disease. Keep
good quantity Of slacl; lime about the
houses and use IL freely. Also n barrel
CT crude carbolic acid for disinfecting.
Do not permit the hogs to have filthy
wallow. If they make low places in
the lots, I'll them up. II IL rains and
water stands in the low places, throw
lime in them or fill them up. Remove
the bedding often and burn IT, Lime
the pens and sleeping places. Care is
the best prevention of tiisease. During
the cholera season the speaker does not
permit anyone to go into his swine
pens without first having changed his
shoes. He keeps few pairs of shoes
about the premises for this purpose.
The disease can be carried in the cloth
ing, and especially on the shoes, from
one farm to another. lie does not per-
nit dog TO come on the farm. A dogs
foot is very handy thing in which the
germs of cholera may bc carried and
left on another farm. The germs may
be carried on the animals body and
left where they will spread the disease
in other herds.-Indiana Farmer.

Antiseptics Should 30 Applied TO the
Wound without Delay.
IT is n serious thing 60 be bitten by
any animal, for even though there may
be no poisonous glands, the saliva in
the mouth of animals that bite is al
ways more or less poisonous. The bite
of the hog is more apt to be serious than
that of any other domestic animal. 1t
requires skill and activity to handle
large numbers of hogs without en-
dangering those who hold them. The
hog is an omnivorous eater, and is not
mt all particular about getting particles
of dirt or exeremcnt with its food. Old
hogs, which are most apt 10 bite, often
destroy mice and snakes, and though
they get no venom i'm their mouths, il
will poison wherever such saliva
reaches abraded skin. No one who
has a sore on his hand should be called
upon to assist in butchering hogs, as
be may be infected from contact with
the saliva without being bitten. In all
cases of bite or cut u wash of some
antiscptic should be applied. Diluted
carbolic acid in the proportion OF one
TO fifty OF water is good, as is also a
weak dilution of corrosive sublimate in
proportion of one OF the poison to / 900
or 1000 parts Of pure water. These
poisons thus diluted do no harm, and
they will prevent poisons from working
In cuts and bruises of any kind.--Ameri-

drove the arch gold bug, Napol-
con, into exile, and-until con-
traction through their forced and
unnecessary retirement brought
industrial disaster-gave Eng
land the greatest prosperity she
ever has known.
The sixty millions Of demand
notes issued by the Lincoln adj
ministration is the other. Specie
payment was suspended; no pre-
tense was made to pay them in
gold; the demand clause, there
fore, was imperative. Yet, be-
cause legal tender and able to
pay all that gold could pay, in
Guiding what the greenbacks
could not pay-import duties
and interest on the public debt -
they remained throughout the
war at par with gold.
The opponents of government
money cry down government
legal tenders because they say
they are "cheap" money. They:
ignore the fact that legal tenders
cannot be cheap money; that
paper currency only becomes
cheap when deprived of the fiat;
and that then it is not money.
The fiat that makes them money
creates the value. We have seen
silver, worshipped as money
equally with gold from prehis-
toric ages, still the money of
three-fourths of the earth's pop
ulation, because demonetized by
few powerful nations, lose half
it's value. Does not this suggest
that the value of gold also is
largely fiat, and if deprived uni-
versally of the legal tender
power invested by law, that it
would become as cheap as iron?
Plutucracy's fa11acy is in con-
fusing two kinds Of cheapness.
One comes from b0untiful sup
ply and is beneficial to every man
interested in productive enter
prise. The other kind is better
named worthlessness. Such
money is cheap, not because it is
plenty, but because it is not
good for much. 1t lacks legal
tender power. Stuff that won't
pay debts is money only by con-
sent. 1t is not accepted as
money by the power that issued
it. It is disOwned. Such make
shifts are wanted by nobody, un-
less it be the part1sans of the
national banks.
The labor world. [volume] (Duluth, Minn.) 1896-current, 1896-07-04

\COnt1nlleQ from last week.
Those who control the
worlds money, knowing their
power to be in limitation of sup
ply, bolster up their position
with falsehoods oft repeated that
fiat money fails of value, that it
is poor money, dishonest and
robs labor. And with learned
flourish point to paper issues
that did depreciate.
They ignore the fact that paper
issues are not necessarily money.
Paper promises to pay coin are
not money, and the coin failing
must necessarily depreciate. The
French assignats, our continent
tai currency, and the more re-
cent paper issues OF Argentine
were not money. Even our war
greenbacks could perform only
part of the money function. That
only is money which being legal
tender will pay debts, and to be
safe from depreciation it must
pay all debts.
Now, the proof that govern
ment fiat is sufficient to make
valid money-that will not depre-
ciate even as compared with gold.
Not to mention the iron money
used by Sparta until she became
the dominant state of Greece
when Grecian civilization was at
a heighth that has been the adj
miration of succeeding ages; nor
the credits of the Bank of Ven
ice (the government treasury de-
partment), which commanded a
premium over gold and made
that little republic, both in state
craft and commerce, one of the
ruling powers of the Mediterran-
can; nor the several issues of CO.
lonial currency, bottomed on
taxes, as Benjamin Franklin ex-
presses it-that is legal tender in
their payment-the prohibition
of which, and on account of the
prosperity they had given the
colonies: as much as any other
one cause, led to the rupture
with the mother country; there
are two instances In modern
times, backed by incontestable
proof, to which gold bug litera-
ture never refers.
The notes of the Bank of Eng
land (which corresponds more to
Our treasury department than to
our national banks) were made
legal tender by the Pitt admins

utilize the government credit to cir
culate their own notes, through
which they control the supply of
money, and by expanding and con-
tracing their own issues make
booms and panics at will, and by a
sort of pump handle motion that
catches industry looming and CO.
ing" absorb the value created by
labor.
In spite of the gold gamblers war
on green5acks, their depreciation
was seeming, not real. Wars de-
mand's and employed labor's in
creased purchasing ability &C.
counted for higher prices of every
thing except gold. Gold was
cornered. Itappreciated not alone
as compared with greenbacks, but
as compared with all values. The
so-called "demand for gold" was not
demand for the "yellow stuff" for
itself, but for money that was per-
feet legal tender. One thing escaped
the Wall street wreckers-and it
damns those spurious philan-
thropists as traitors besides whom
Jeff Davis was patriot. They failed
to exclude the demand notes as
they did the greenbaCks, from full
legal tender privileges, and the
former commanding the same pre-
MUM as gold, intended for gold
alone, proves the spread between
gold and greenbacks not the result
of depreciations of the latter, but
a corner on full legal tenders.
From this fact it follows that all
the premiums paid on gold and in
terest on bonds from 1860 till the
last coupon is redeemed is a cold
blooded theft. gigantic in proper
tons, deliberately planned from the
beginning.
Nor was it on account of the re-
sumption of specie payments that
the so-called depreciation of the
greenbacks disappeared, for re-
sumption did not occur till they
reached par with gold. How this
was done John Sherman knows.
They were accepted on the same
terms as gold at the custom houses
bv his order. Their disabilities
were thus removed and the artificial
demand for gold dissolved.
We have now three kinds of dol
lars, gold, silver and paper. Meas
ured in gold silver has intrinsic
value of 80 cents, paper none at all.
Can you get dollar of one kind
for 1esa than another? Why not?
