HOW IT WORKS.
The Experience of Mexico with Free Coin
age of Silver.

The Experience of Mexico with Free Coin
age OF Silver.
81. v. Temple, manager of the Next
can bureau of information, in a recent
letter said, among other things:
THE premium on gold tends to bring
it to this country (Mexico). European
investors, taking advantage of the pre-
MUM on gold, are more willing to
come here and make investments in
mining. manufacturing, etc, than if
this disparity between gold and silver
did not exist While doubling their
capital on bringing it into Mexico,
they can go into the production of arti-
Giles for export which are sold for gold:
as, for instance, coffee. rubber. hides,
vanilla and kindred products, so that
practically they double their capital
and yet receive gold interest on their
investment
"a silver basis seems to tend to the
increase of a larger number of small
incomes rather than a small number OF
larger ones"

GET TOGETHER.
The Friends of Silver Must Unite II They
Would Win.

The Friends Of Silver Must Unite If They
Would Win.
Gen. A. j. Warner, president of the
Bimetallic league. while recently in
Denver said to News reporter:
''The time has passed by when the
fight for silver can be made inside the
old party lines. 1t is useless to waste
time, talent and energy in making a
free silver fight under gold banners.
The fight for true bimetallism can win.
but it must be done with the gold and
silver army aligned squarely against
the gold army. The rule of the gold
standard means lower wages, it means
that gold will constantly be going out
of the country. The gold standard
is a British institution. permeated
through and through with British in.
stincts and predictions. The only
way to restore the prosperity of this
country is TO re-esta blish the financial
conditions which prevailed under the
bimetallic standard. Now, there are
enough voters in this country who be-
lieve in restoring the bimetallic stand
ard, to reap a victory if they will only
come together. 1t appears to me,
therefore, that the right course to
pursue is for all men who believe
in the restoration of silver to come to-
gether in one camp. All can unite on
those things upon which all agree. 1t
is folly to attempt to unite on things
upon which all do not agree. There
fore, let all men who agree upon silver
unite. Set aside the tariff and all false
issues For tariff is false issue now
the paramount issue is the financial
question. The country cannot hope
to prosper again until the money ques-
ton is settled, and settled right"
"You are in favor, then, of the or.
ganization of an independent free
silver party?'' was asked of Gen. War
ner.
SWELL, yes; that is my idea." replied
he. But an independent free silver
party can. in one sense. be non-par-
tisan union. If a man believes in silver
and is a republican, he need not neces-
sarily sacrifice the old principles of his
party in joining the silver forces. He
simply votes for silver because he
deems it best for the bimetallic stand
ard to be restored. The same can be
said of silver democrat In the same
way the populist must lay aside his
many minor issues, and join the silver
forces. Thus. all who agree upon
silver can come together and fight a
Winning battle"

gkim MIX Is the Food Par Excellence fos
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, inseed meal and
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
G. grain ration that should be fed de-
ponds SO much upon conditions-suck
as size, the quantity of work, whether in
CESSATION or sucking the foal-that we
are sure it will be more sensible for a
practical feeder to govern the ration by
his personal observation than by any
arbitrary rule which we might venture
W SoSS SCSl.
Skim milk would be food par excel
lence for the colts, even for those three
years old; and if a supply of this can be
had for 20 cents 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 the younger colts, the proportion of
grain increasing as the animals grow
older. The skim milk would also be
splendid food for mares while suck
ling their foal. In any case, especially
if all other foods are dry, roots are ex-
ceeding1y desirable as al occasional
feed, and they may be fed daily to colts
with excellent results.

How to Prepare Tobacco Din.

Speaking of tobacco dip, writer
says it will require for 100 sheep 100
gallons Of water. ard 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 a pail of
hot water, and after being thorough
" stirred should be added 10 the dip.
Ii tobacco stems are used, at least
three times the weight mentioned
should be STEPPED.

THERE is more Catarrh in this section of
the country than all other diseases put to-
gether. and until the last few years W as sup
posed to be incura5le. For great many
years doctors pronounced it a local disease,
and prescribed local remedies, and by con-
stantIy failing to cure with local treatment,
pronounced it incurable. Science has proven
catarrh to be constitutional disease, and
therefore requires constitutional treatment.
Halls Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. j.
Cheney e Co., Toledo Ohio, is the only
constitutional cure on the market. 1t is
taken internally in doses from 10 drops to a
teaspoonful. 1t acts directly on the blood

fails to cure. Send for circulars and testi-

Maintaining the Standard.

The British gold standard can be
maintained in this country only by
contracting the currency to a point
that would bring prices down far
enough below the European level to
prevent a drain from this country.
Not only prices, but wages and BUSH
ness would have to contract We have
already passed through one period of
contrac. ton and seen its results These
results have been fatal enough to the
business men and producers of the
country, although the contraction has
been practically confined to the out
lawry of our silver coin as the money
of final payment.-Exchang
