I'VE come from a great and surprising
victory where the battle was fought sole

lican or Democrat, who helped by his vote

ballot with the deliberate purpose and full
knowledge that in so doing he was voting
for you and the platform upon which you
stard Every such ballot was intended as
emphatic condemnation of the false doc
trnes which our people believe would bring
disgrace and disaster upon our country.
The battle in State was won because
the freemen of Vermont, after fun hear
ing and consideration of both sides re-
iected with unalterabe determination the
pernicious heresies of our opponents. In
this action the Republicans of Vermont
were unanimous and the sense of their in
dvidual duty in this great crisis brought
them all to the polls. We also had the

The Care Of Honey.

Honey has great affinity for mois-
ture, and if comb honey is stored in
damp atmosphere it will absorb the
moisture through the slightly porous
cappings and become thin and watery.
The bulk of the honey will be so increas-
ed that it will burst the cells and ooze
out. The honey may become so thinned
that fermentation will set in. Cold is
also detrimental to comb honey, causing
1t to candy in the cells. When comb
honey is first taken from the hives, it
should be stored in hot, dry atmos-
phere A room in the southwest corner
Of building where it will become very
hot in the afternoon is a good place to
store comb honey, as a correspondent in
The Country Gentleman explains. The
heat continues the ripening process, and
if there are any unsealed cells Of honey
the honey in them becomes thicker and
ripper instead of thinner
Down cellar is where the ordinary
purchaser of comb honey is almost sure
to put it. No place could be more unde-
sirable. Dryness and warmth are the
requisites for keeping comb honey. As
ordinarily kept comb honey will candy
before spring, but by keeping it in a
warm atmosphere it will not candy and
will really improve with time.

Destroy the Chinch Bugs.

Chinch bugs winter in old dead grass,
cornstalks and such places. If all the
trash is destroyed now, the bugs will
merely crawl into cracks in the ground
and stay there, Freezing does not de,
stroy the bugs, as has been shown by
Professor Lugger of Minnesota. He put
some outdoors and sprinkled them with
water so that they were imbedded in
ice, After they were thawed out, they
attacked the green plants neaE which
they had been placed Irrigation Age
suggests that if all the trash is burned
at clearing up time" next spring be-
fore the ground thaws out many of the
bugs will be destroyed.

The Intended Commitment

In an old fashioned home of New Or
leans there was company at dinner, and
the ladies were discussing the woman
question. Says The Picayune of that
city:
A gentleman present, after hearing
all the pros and cons, facetiously re-
marked that two preachers were discuss
ing the same problem, recently, in his
hearing, and they both agreed that it
portended evil, and THAT women were
responsible for most of the evil in the
world-in fact, that women were worse
than men,"
One of the ladies indignantly retort
ed, Indeed they are not; women are
the salt of the earth.
"Dat's so, honey" put in old Aunt
Susan from the kitchen; "dat's de Bible
truf, for shore. Women is de salt OBJ de
earth. Just think OBJ Lots wife.
And everybody laughed at the sudden
and unexpected application of the old
Bible story.
