An important Year.

Bliss, calls attention to the fact that
this is one of the most important
years in the political history of the

Never since the war has the state
needed at the helm more positive

are tearing everything to tatters and
placing experiments IN the place
thereof. And the man pre-emnently
to head the state ticket is Col. A. T..

good citizen and a Republican whose
fealty to party no one has ever
questioned. HIS experience as state
and national legislator and as sue

these views are shared by Republicans

FACTS ABOUT THE SILVER DOL
LAR.

Wageworkers have already heard
and will continue to hear much of a
crime Of '73. They will be told that
silver was "struck down" at that time,
and every art of the clever orator will
be engaged to make them draw the in
ference that silver was coined by the
thousands of millions before that fatal
year and rejected thereafter. They
will conclude, if they follow such
speakers, that the silver dollar was the
greatest sufferer from the crime. For
there will be many pathetic references
to the "dollar of the dads" The feel
ings evoked will be both fearful and
indignant.
1t seems too bad to break in upon
such sacred emotions, but even in poll
tics facts are occasionally worth no.
ting. Coinage at the minis began in
1903. Coinage of silver dollars stopped
practically in 1906, and was not resum-
ed again until 1873. The total coinage
of such dollars before 1873 amounted
to S,091 1888. A billion of gold was
coined in the same period. After the
passage of the Bland bill the coinage
of silver dollars was resumed, and from
1s7s-1S96 the mint reports show that
429, 2S9,2l6 of them were coined and
S3s, 1871 $40 in subsidiary silver.
The children of today are familiar
with oil sorts of silver coin. The

exact spot where we desire to sit. On
sunny days we often covet a shady cor

friends wish to sit together fer awhile

here depicted:

apparent the ease with which even a

A HOMEMADE COVER.

the outside edges where any vapor
would otherwise have a chance to
escape. All the bugs will be killed in
about an hour, and the rags can have q
little more liquid and the box trans
ferred to another hill Whatever is used
as a cover had better not be much larg-
er than necessary to cover the vines, as
it will take more liquid to make death
atmosphere. If one has many vines to
treat, it may be best to provide good
number Of covers. Anything that will
cover the vines and keep the vapor in
will do, and if one has other work to
do near by, few covers will enable
person to treat good many hills in
day, says the writer of the foregoing in
a letter to Ohio Farmer.
The illustration represents home
made cover, which the authority quoted
also describes: Take barrel hoop,
cut it in two and fasten the pieces at
right angles to each other by making a
hole with a bradawl through both and
inserting a screw eye with the eye ON
the convex side, to be used as q handle
for lifting. Spring the hoops to make
cover of the size wanted, notch the ends
and tie string around, as in making a
kite; or, better, use stiff wire or full
hoop. Take MANILA or even newspaper,
cover all of one side with paste and
cover one section (one-fourth of the
''dome') with it, turning all the sur.
plus paper inside. The other three Sec
tions are covered with paper in the same
way, turning the surplus paper either
inside or outside, as it would naturally
go.
A bundle of rags or cotton can be tied
inside where the hoops cross to receive
the charge of bisulphide. Any of the
chemical left after treating one hill can
be carried with little loss to the next.
This will make more substantial cover
than one would at first think, even when
made of newspapers, as when dry the
paste will make them very stiff, espe-
cially when there are several thicknesses
of paper. The covers will also be very
resistent to the vapors Of the bisulphide

Alfalfa For Seed.

It is usual when seed is wanted to let
the second crop stand until it natures.
The first and third cuttings will pro-
duce seed also but usually do not yield
80 well as the second crop. The blooms
on first cuttings do not set so well as
the lrter blooms, possibly because Of
the dearth Of honey gathering insects so
early in the season to aid in fertiliza-
ton. The last crop is frequently short
and light in yield, particularly if a dry
spell has occurred about midsummer,
rs is often the case, and the yield of
seed on that cutting is therefore usual
ly light.
AS to the rate of yield per acre, it
varies greatly with the season and other
conditions. 1t may range all the way
from one bushel or less to 10 bushels
per acre, the latter figure being the
highest yield that has come under my
observation. -Four to five bushels per
acre is, however, considered a very fair
yield. A year or two ago, when seed
was worth So q bushel, few farm crops
paid better The extensive seeding to
alfalfa during recent years has now
caused a reduction in the price, but al
falfa seed is still a profitable crop,
writes Professor Georgedon to Prairie
Farmer.

A Cheap Silo.

The following from Colman's Rural
World is going the rounds: Recent ex-
periments prove that ensilage can be
put up in the open stack and without
cutting up before stacking. A portable
frame is erected around the place for
the STACK by connecting series of long
hurdles stood Oh end and made of long
pieces of l by lumber nailed four
inches apart on to pieces Of 2 by 4,
which project on each side of the hur-
dies far enough to be connected by
tolts. Into this circular Enclosure the
corn or sugar cane is dumped, trodden
down and allowed to settle and topped
up to shed water, and when settled
down the frame is taken apart and re-
and when needed for use the
mass is cut with hay knife. This SIM
plifies putting up ensilage for use on a
large scale. If the feed is needed in an
other pasture, it can be carted there and
fed in troughs, or even on the ground
in emergency.

A Simple Bordeaux Mixture.

Rural New Yorker asks: Why not
simplify the directions for making the
stock solutions for the bordeaux mix
ture by using pound of sulphate of
copper or pound Of lime for each gal
Ion of water used in making the respec-
tive stock solutions? Then each gallon
of the solution will represent a pound
of the material used. Then, by taking 6
gallons of each solution and adding
sufficient water to make so gallons of
the compound, the proper proportions
Of the bordeaux mixture are readily Sc
cured.

Potatoes Under Straw.

Prairie Farmer calls attention to the
plan Of a Nebraska subscriber. The Ne
braska farmer writes:
II marked out the ground two feet be-
tween rows, cut the potatoes in quarters
from seed end and dropped them in
rows IS inches apart, covering with
straw one foot deep. The crop is insured
if you have good shower Of rain. |.

year, some weighing over two pounds. 4"
sugar beet planting is finished in Cal
ifornia, and the acreage is reported to
be largely increased.

lished laboratories of the same kind in

must be put in rick or tons in a

Forage Crops.

Don't broadcast corn for forage, but
let the rows be 3 to feet apart. Sow
cowpeas where the climate is hot. Can
ada field peas thrive best in colder sum-
mers. Summer crops, like millet and
Hungarian grass that make a crop in 80
to 80 days, says American Agricultur-
ist, require rich soil thoroughly worked
to good depth, so their roots can at
once penetrate and take up the plant
food required for quick growth.

One great advantage kaffir corn has
over any other grain in Florida, says a
writer in The Farmer and Fruit Grow
er, is that all the truckers can plant it
after their crops of tomatoes, cabbage,
etc., are taken off, and they will be as
sured of a heavy crop of both grain and
fodder to carry their stock over for an
other year. There is no question now
that we have the genuine article at last
in Florida, and it has come to stay and
will be worth tens Of thousands of dol
lars every year to the poultry and stock
raisers.
There are two varieties Of kaffir corn,
both excellent. The white is the earliest,
but the red produces much the largest
heads. There are two things very neces-
sary in raising large crop One is to
get genuine seed and not the sorgo trash
that has in many instances been palm ed
off in times past on us, and another
thing is do not plant any more grains to
the hill than you would common corn.
