Russian Thistles.

Under the law passed by the last
legislature, to which reference has
been made in the Union before, it is
made the duty of the county commits
sioners to fix by resolution a time for
the destruction of all Russian thistles
and noxious weeds. The law also
makes it the duty Of all owners and
occupants Of lands to destroy all nox-
ious weeds growing on their lands at
or before the expiration of the time
fixed and if they shall fail to do so, the.
public authorities shall destroy the
same at the expense of said owners or
occupants. Where owners fail to com
ply the expense Of destruction is
charged against the property on the
tax books.

Advice to Farmers.

ADVICE to Farmers.
At this season the UNION deems it
advisable to warn the farmers against
running their farms on the one crop
idea. Mile Laos county farmers have
in the past found potato raising the
most profitable branch OF the business
they could engage in but last year the
price of this product was universally
low and no one realized anything like
what the crop cost from it's SALE It
was then that diversified farming APP
pealed most strongly to the husbandry.
Few farmers had produced anything
but potatoes an3 consequently had
nothing from which money could be
obtained. This year a similar ex-
perience is threatened. Many believe
that the year Of low prices on this crop
will be followed by high prices and are
preparing to enter potato culture more
extensively than ever There are few
who do not plan on fvezacres of this
crop and majority will go for a large
acreage This will tend to weaken
the market greatly Last year enough
starch was produced to supply the
country for.two years and there will be
little use to look for relief from that
market. The soil of Mile Laos county
is adapted to any crop that can be
raised anywhere in Minnesota. Diver

CAMPAIGN NOTES.

There is not so much fanaticism and
foolishness in the country as was sup
posed when Bryan captured the Chicago
convention with his Grown of thorns''
and %''cross of gold" h%arangue. The
observation-disclosures of the masses is still
to he counted upon as a safeguard against
Socialism and anarchy.
Powderly hits the nail squarely on the
head when he tells the workingmant that
his motto with regard TO money should
be, The best is none too good for
me-
A man is said to have injured his ankle
in a silver debate. That's what comes
of letting people with comparatively lit
tie strength juggle with these heavy ar
guments.
Mr.. Powderly. who says the Bryan
frce-silyer panic would be worse for la
hOr than all the strikes ever known. will
come in for the abuse of the Debsites,
who want strikes galore, free silver,
free rum and Il general breakup.
A government. like an individual. must
have q reputation for honesty and have
good backing If il does business with
the great world outside of its own lin
its.
Mark Hanna is firmly of the belief
that the only effective confidence r~estora-
tive is put up at Canton.
Bryan says that "the present dollar has
too great purchasing power" Ask some
one who sweats through eight hours to
earn one whether this is true.
Spain wants more money. She should
send for Bryan.
An honest dollar is the noblest work of
politics.
Even the Democrats of Michigan.
Wisconsin and Ohio are h0cking to the
standard of Mckinley. The same thing
affiicts Mr.. Bryan. it seems. that led the
parrot of story into serious trouble. He
talks too much.
Neither free silver nor any other cheap
money device can bring prosperity to n
nation burdened with a tariff which on
crates adversely to the interests of its
own people.
Bryan appears to be one Of those men
who think they know it all. and an in
telligent and observing public does not
need to be informed what usually hap.
pens to them.
To put money into circulation is the
need of the time. and that can be lone
onlt by a protective tariff that will re-
vive industry.
Bryan's campaign speeches are like a
minstrel show. You hear one, you hear
them all.
Scared capital runs faster than light
ming.

class to become farmers or producers of
farm products.
The year 1892 shows a record of mar
yelous activity in the direction of secur-
ing a larger division of labor by en-
ploying more in our mechanical indus-
tries. Our shops were filling up, new
enterprises were started, labor was in
demand at good prices in mechanical in
dustries, reciprocity was enlargins and
extending our markets and we seemed
III every way to be realizing for the
American farmer and artisan the full
value of that law of political economy
and creating wealth by division of la
Dor"
In 1892 the policy of protection was re-
versed and thus the laborers from the
shops and factories were forced from
sheer necessity 10 go out upon the lands
and become producers instead of consum-
ers. Ii has been estimated that over a
million laborers have since the election of
lS92 when compelled to seek employ
ment in farming in order to obtain sub
sistence for themselves and families;
many of these have converted parcels
Of ground near and around their homes
into corn and potato patches. thereby
enormously decreasing the demand for
the products of the regular farm. 1t
is easy to understand when the full effect
Of this shifting of labor from the mechan-
zeal industries 10 the farm is considered,
what the effect must be upon prices
of farm products.
In view Of these facts, all of which can
be verified in the past history of our
country, il is plain hat our farmers are
directly interested in the employment of
labor and that their prosperity depends
largely upon whether that labor is en-
plOyed as competitors i'll the production
of farm products, or as consumers en-
ployed in the mechanical industries of
the country. We are certainly learning
from a severe practical experience the
truth and value of the economic principle
all ready referred to that "the greatest
creator of wealth is the greatest possible
division of labor" We are also learning
that this division of labor may be
brought about by n wise policy of prOtec-
ton.
The effect of production upon the
products of the farm can be summed up
in a few words. First, will it increase
or diminish the number engaged IN pro-
ducing the products of the farm? Sec
Ond, will il increase or diminish the num-
Der Of consumers of farm products?
When you have answered these two
plain propositions you will be master of
the entire argument of protection and
free trade. SO far as the farmer is con.
cerned. You need be concerned in no
way about the free coinage Of silver
- 'h' "hh' III any way pooHipiN al
crease or diminish the consumption of
your products. Its adoption. however,
would have the effect, as Mr.. Bryan
admits, of producing a panic and con-
tinued depression in our mechanical in
dustries, forcing more labor TO the farm
and thereby add to the number already
producing farm products.
The employment of labor in our me-
chanical industries and not the free
coinage of silver is the thing that inter-
ests the farmer and is to secure for him
the prosperity he so much desires.-H.

and the insurance money may thus be-
come the sole resource of the widow and
orphans. Surely, a fund such as this
ought 10 be sacred against robbery
through depreciation of the value of the
money in which it is paid. Free silver,
on the basis of the present value Of the
two metals, would rob every widow Of
half the money value coming TO her
from the insurance carried by her hus-
band.
And this would be a stupendous rob-
berry indeed. The five Massachusetts
life insurance companies of which sta
tistics are given in the commissioners
report, paid 81, 63T 1888 in death claims
last year. The grand total reported of
all life insurance companies doing bust
ness in this state was S66. S51 All. Can
the women, for whose benefit most of
this insurance money was paid, regard
with cquanimity the loss of $33, 100000
in one year? There are millions of wom-
en- dependent upon the payment of such
policies. The Massachusetts companies
had 122,6OO policies in force last year,
calling for $500. S14.622 in case of death.
The grand total, including all companies,
was |, 143,350 policies, amounting to the
enormous sun of 81, 195, 0S3. S64. Right
here in Massachusetts, there is $2S7 3d.
400 at stake in this way.
In ADDITION 10 all these there are the
assessment life insurance companies,
with 39,329 certificates in force, repre-
senting S93,522.457: the fraternal bene-
hciary associations. with a membership
of S54 1850, which paid out $19,063,656
for 10,W69 death claims last year.; the
casualty companies, which paid out
S30O,3O1. All these, which are primari-
ly for the relief of widows and orphans.
would have to pay in deprecated money
under free silver.
But the money in which the premiums
on these policies have been paid is
money as good as gold, worth 100 cents
on the dollar. In Massachusetts alone
last year SO. 740.S67 was thus paid. Do
not the women want, and is it not their
right, to receive from the insurance COM
panies as good money as their husbands
paid for the insurance. Boston Post.

DEEDS NOT WORDS.
what Mckinley Did for Destitute Miners
Less than Two Years Ago.

While Candidate Bryan is going about
the country telling fairy tales of what
he and his policy will do for the poor,
the question naturally arises: What
has he ever lone for the working poor?
Is il his habit or nature to feel for and
try to relieve the suffering Of those less
fortunate in life than himself!"
His most loyal supporters make no
claims that he has ever shown this feel
ing for his fellowman until now. In
fact. he has no record Of ever having
gone out of his way to do anything for
what he calls the masses" On the
other hand. Maj. Mckinley, while not
nosing MS one who "weeps for the
masses" has Il record. He says nothing
about the occurrence which gave the
world an insight into the heart of the
man. an occurrence which demonstrated
that he was the friend of those who are
moor and hungry, but a great multitude
remembers it. Such acts live in the
memory of those who earn their bread
Inv the sweat of their face"
In speaking of Maj. Mckinley, the
Grand Rapids Herald says:
mo account of McKinlcy's onnec
ton with labor problems would be- COM
nlete without some mention of the tire
less energy which he displayed in secur-
ing relief for the 1000 miners in the
Hacking valley mining district who early
in 1895 were reported out of work and
destitute. The news first came to the
governor at midnight, but before 3
O'clock in the morning he had upon his
own responsibility dispatched to the af-
aicted district n car containing $1,000
worth of provisions. Later he made APP
peals for assistance and finally distrib-
nted among the 2723 families IN the
district clothing and provisions to the
amount Of $50. 1885"

GARDEN AND ORCHARD.

Too much or too severe pruning is al
ways more or less weakening, especially
If continued year after year.
In pruning trees of any kind 1t is bet
ter to leave one strong branch or limb
than two or three weak ones.
The only remedy for black rot is to
cut off and burn Immediately all
branches that show any indication of
the disease.
Cultivate your young and small fruits
the same as you would any other crop
on the farm from which you expect to
realize profit. ..,.
In setting out grape settings, plant
IN dry, low soil, so that only the top
bud will be exposed and then mulch
with straw.
When selecting the trees take those
with the roots large and strong enough,
and then top light enough to do away
with the necessity of stalking.
By leaning the trees q little to the
southwest when they are set out, sun
scalding may be largely avoided, as the
top will partly shade the trunk.
The sooner now that red and black
raspberries, blackberries, currants and
gooseberries are set out the Better.
Early planting induces stronger root
ing.
A young, tender tree cannot grow
without good care and attention. A
tree is strong and hardy when it is old
and it's roots are we'll established, but
when young it must he attended to.
Trees should always be set about as
deep as they stand in the nursery or
two or three inches deeper to allow for
the settling of the soil.-St. Louis Re-

AXLE GREASE CHEESE.
why Farmers Should Assist In the Sup
preston of It's Manufacture.

Why Farmers Should Assist In the Sup
preston of It's Manufacture.
Every effort to suppress the manu-
facture and sale of filled cheese deserves
the heartiest support of all farmers.
The question is of more general i'm
portance than many farmers seem to
imagine, for the cheese and butter in
dustries are so closely allied that when
our export cheese trade is destroyed
the butter market cannot fail to be af-
fected. 10
The recent low prices commanded by
the best creamery butter has alarmed
many people, persuading them into the
belief that the creamery business is
overdone. If this be true-and it is not
possible now to say whether it is or not,
for markets are affected by many cir
cumstances-but If it be true, the
remedy lies close at hand. With the
suppression of filled cheese, America
can produce and sell at advantageous
prices tons and tons of the real article.
