THE ELECTIONS TODAY.

While this is considered an on year
in the political field. yesterday witnessed
the close Of at least two campaigns whies
have been OF as much inte-es; in their
respective localities as the presidential
battle OF year ago. These were. that
in Ohio. and the mayoral;y campaign in
the city of New York.
New York state chooses but one Of
ncial-the judge of the court Of appeals.
But the great battle in that state is
over the mayoralty in New York. On jan
uary next, the consolidation Of New
York. Brooklyn and number of smaller
towns and villages into one municipality
to be called the City Of New York. goes
into effect. Nearly three million people
inhabit ITS territory, and the election Of
its first mayor inauguraied a contest
fully as heated and as bitterly fought
as any national contest in the last
decade.
Ohio is President McKinleys state. In
1885, with all other parties practically
fused for Bryan, she gave her electoral
vote TO her favorite son by plurality
Of over $500. This year she elects a fun
state ticket, as well as general assembly,
upon which body wiz devolve the duty
Of electing an United States senator for
one year yet remaining OF Sherman's
term. and also for the full term OF six
years, beginning March T. 1899. The in
terest cenoers on the senatorial contest,
because Of the lack Of a republican ma
jor&y in that body by only three vo es
excluding the probability Of Senator
corbett's being seated in December
Probably the Iowa contest comes next
in importance after the two above named.
This state elects a governor and a full
set Of state officers. There are five par
ties in the held-republican geld and
silver democrats, populists and prohibi-
tionist.
Colorado elects judge OF the supreme
court. Kentucky, a clerk OF the court
Of appeals, though the contest is a hot
one among the gold democrats, silver
democrats and republicans Maryland
elects a comptroller and court clerk.
Massachusetts, will choose a governor.
Nebraska has two offices 10 hll-supreme
judge and university regents. Pennsyl-
vania elects an auditor-gen and state
treasurer. Virginia will choose a COVER
nor. lieutenant-governor and attorney
general. las the republicans made no
nominations in this latter state, the re-
victory.
Legislatures in whole or in part Will
be chosen in the states of Delaware
Massachusetts. New Jersey, New
York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Iowa,
Maryland, Virginia and Nevada
The legislture of the state Of Maryland
will in January next elect a successor
to Arthur Pue German as United States
senator and the legislature Of Virginia
will elect senator in place Of John W.
Daniel.

Richard Croker may need British air,
ard have to seek tahe race course to
avoid excitement, and go TO Carlsbad,
where the heavy feeders and drinkers OF
Europe gather to have their 1ivers purged
and he may have spells Of feebleness in
some respects but ne does not look deli
cate. We infer that his cure, that he
takes so regularly in Europe, "horses and
health" might be had in this country,
and as for excitement, exercise with the
dumbbells IN Tammany, of nights,
ought to aid digestion. 1t is painful TO
hear Croker say IN that cast-down way,
I'm not the man I was" But we cannot
all go to Europe who are not the men we
were. Croker should try to submit, for
fits the way OF our common humanity.
Now Croker says that Wales is a com
monplaoe man. and it would be no great
thing to meet him. On that hint, and for
the reason that Croker Clipped in and
helped out Wales poor old mother with
a five-pound note, when the Tammany
boss goes back and Wales hears Of him

Beginning Work In Spring.
1t is best not to urge the teams very
much the first few days after they begin
spring work. This is especially true for
teams that have had little to do through
the winter. There is not only the lassi-
tude due to warmth after the more in
MIGRATING air Of the winter, but a
greater evil from the sweating of COL
lars and the CALLING Of the horses shout
ders, which have become tender BY not
having the friction of collar against
them for two or three months It is
much easier to prevent a gall than to
stop or cure one when 1t has started.
When the team is dragging or blowing,
it should be frequently stopped and the
horse backed enough SO as to allow q
current of cool air to battle the heated
shoulder.

To Build . Town Well OF Ill.


About the year 1870 two suburban spec.
ulations We're begun in the neighborhood
of Chicago. One district was situated nine
miles from the town, the other six. But
both were on the same railway, and land
in each was worth from 500 to $500 an
acre. The managers Of one district laid
out their plan in what was then the
usual way. They made streets of prairie
soil, with neat open bitches on each side,
and they left proper spaces for sidewalks,
along which trees were planted. They hit
upon a good name, issued Autographs and
advertised, with no very profitable results.
The managers of the other district Dor
rowed a large sum of money at a high rats
of interest. With this they underlaid the
land with several miles Of drainage pipe,
then built mncadamized roads, with paved
and broad borders frequently spreading In
to little green's and commons planted Pic
turesquely. All the natural wood and the
banks of the stream which passed the place
were made public property, and shelters,
seats, bathing and boat houses were pro-
viled upon 1t. An artesnn we'll was sunk,
and with a steam pump water WAS sent to
all parts of the property. Before these i'm
provements were nearly complctethe own
ers began selling land upon the roads at
SEQ the front foot and soon aftewGrd ad-
vanced the price to $50, and then gas WIS
introduced. The price OF land rose, even
in the outskirts, In two years from $50 10
81, 900 an acre.
In the 30 years Of their existence 1t 10
evident that the first community has had
to expend many times the amount wisely
spent in the beginning by the other. These
instances suffice to show, IN a way that
ought to appeal to the most conservative,
the pecuniary importance Of thorough prep
aration.-Mary G. Robbins In February

Young pigs may be fed when weeks
old, or even before then. The easiest
way is to make an opening in the pen
or divide OF part of it into which the
pigs can go, but not the SOW, and give
them a little fresh cows milk in a shall
low pan, which they will soon learn to
drink, or they may be held to the milk
until they begin to drink it. 1t is not
advisable to give any solid food until
they are weeks old, when some oat-
meal softened in boiling water may be
added to the milk. When they are eat
ing we'll, feed this mixture along with
skimmilk at first sweet, but in q time
it may be used sour-viz, one part of
corn, oats and buckwheat each, finely
ground This may be fed four times q
day in such quantities as will be eaten
clean and the pan licked clean. Food
should never be given to q young pig in
such quantity as to be left uneaten, as
the young animals will be more easily
and worse stunted by overfeeding than
by little spare feeding. - Montreal

Live Stock Points.

Did You begin 1897 by having a book
in which to set down all your expenses
and income for the year? If you did
not, then you made a serious mistake.
A farmer, no more than merchant,
can have any idea of whether he is
making money or losing it unless he
keeps q strict account of rything.
There would not be half so many farm
ers groaning under debt or half 80 many
mortgages on agricultural lands If the
ruralist maintained a strict system Of
bookkeeping. You can never know
whether either live stock or dairyinR
pays unless you know exactly how
much it costs to raise an animal or to
feed milk cow
If you have not already done SO, be-
gin now to keep 'stockbook, in which
the history and facts in regard to all
the animals on your place are recorded
Register particularly the birth of an an
imal; also be particular to note down
when to look for lambs or colts OF
calves to be born.
Noway has been found by which rape
may be kept for winter feed It may,
however, be planted very early in the
spring, and at the same time oats are
sown, and it will quickly spring up and
furnish the first spring pasture for sheep
and lambs. 1t will give them such q
start that they will go ahead Of sheep
not thus provided and remain larger and
finer throughout
