BRYAN-Cutting dollar makes two dollars. See?
FARMER-Jess cutting makes

on the reign of uncertainty which has con-
tinued for four years being ended. What
you want, what l want and what every
other business man wants, is some certain,
well-established, safe policy on which we
can do our business with confidence and
sleep nights. This condition the republic
an party must bring about. and will bring
about, or the Mckinley administration Will
be the most colossal failure ever known in
the history OF InIs country. Very truly
yours, J. j. HAGERMAN.
Nr Hagerman is perhaps best known
as the man " no built the Colorado Mid
land railroad after it had been aban-
doned by its original projectors. He
was for long time president of the
company, and still directs its policy.
He is at present the head of no less
than = big western corporations, most
of which are largely dependent upon
foreign capital. He is also president of
the famous Mollie Gibson mine, which
turns out $4,0O0,OO0 in silver annually,
as well as president of the Isabella, one
of the largest silver mines of the west.
Mr.. Hagerman is also interested in a
score of other mines, the majority of
which are silver producers.
While Mr.. Hagerman has never taken
any active part in politics other than
to consistently vote the republican
ticket, he has always been known as
conservative bimetallist, and thus his
candid declaration against Bryan and
free silver comes with added weight.
The influence he Yields in Colorado and
New Mexico is undeniable. He controls
interests which employ several thou
sand men. The Pecos Valley company,
of which he is the head. controls the
richest section of southwestern New
Mexico. The whole of this region will
soon be given direct communication
with Chicago through branch line
which will tap the Santa Fe route. This
project alone represents an outlay of
50 100000, and depends, Mr.. Hagerman
says, entirely on a safe and satisfactory
settlement of the present business I'M

Remarkable Nevada Wood.

One of the most remarkable products
of Nevada is species of wood known as
mountain mahogany, which, when dry,
is as hard as lockwood, very fine grained,
red in color, and of very high specific
gravity. 1t has been used for boxes
for shaftings, and, in some instances,
for slides and dies in quartz batteries.

FARM Notes.
TO Treat a Cracked HooT.

A crack extending from the top
of the hoof of horse down the side
should be treated in this way: A
V-shaped cut should be made from
the top of the hoof at the coronet
down to the horn, about one inch,
meeting at the crack. If possible,
a wire should be passed through
the edges of the crack and drawn
tight, so as to close the opening as
much as possible. The horn above
the V-shaped mark should be rasp-
ed thin and bandage kept over it
always wet with water. AS the
crack goes down the new horn above
will be closed, and in time the new
growth will reach to the bottom
leaving a solid hoof 1t is exceed
ingly injurious to the hoof to apply
tar to it, as is often done. The tar
contains an acid which damages the
horn, while it hardens the hoof and
prevents the absorption of water,
which the horn needs to preserve
it's elasticity and tenacity.-,NeaO

Advice to Horse Owners.

Never tie horse with the halter
shank in his mouth; if you do, the
animal is almost sure to pull back
until he breaks his jaw or the hal
ter, or cuts his tongue off.
Never increase the feed of a
horse, mule, or OK for an extra days
work or long drive. 1t is a COM
mon mistake, and kills many an
animal.
Never allow your horses lampas
to be burned. If treatment is nee
essary for congested gums, scarify
them
Never believe the man who says
he can remove a SPAWN or ring
worm and leave no blemish. Even
if he calls himself professor, dc
not question his title-that is what
he is and all he is. Country Gentle
man.

Working Young Colts.

AS is the custom nowadays TO
break and use colts at much earl
Ter age than in former years. There
can be no doubt that the practice
is overdone, and that many valuable
horses have been ruined by improper
use at an early age. On this subject
the american CultiUdtor truthfully
says that the three year-old colt
should not be put at hard work.
He should have enough to do to ex-
ercise his muscles, but without the
danger Of straining them. The
young colt should be put beside an
old and steady horse, and thus used
it will not be apt to do much. If
worked without injury during the
year they are three years old, they
will not be likely to be strained by
any task in later years after bone
and muscles have hardened

This is the season for lice, and it
is only the well-kept coops and
yards that are free from vermin.
Lice will drive the sitting hens off
the nest, will force them to lay ON
the ground outside, will cause the
CHICKS to droop and die without APP
parent disease affecting them, will
invite disease by facilitating the
fowls, and will cause loss where
profit should be the result. Do not
wait for lice to come, but keep the
pests away. Frequent whitewashing
of the coops, the rubbing of kerosene
oil on the roosts, the sprinkling Of
tobacco refuse over the nests, and
the liberal use Of Persian insect
powder well busted into every crack
and crevice as well as over the floor,
the nests, and everywhere else will
be the only safeguard. - Prairie Far
