Hints For Plcnickers.

Frequently ice is hard to keep at
hand with campers and picnickers,
and the food suffers for the want of IL.
A common clay fowerpot may be made
good use of in keeping the butter cool
and firm. Place the pot over the
plate of butter and wrap around it a
cloth wet in cold water, sprinkling
water over the outside of the cloth as
it becomes dry. Milk will remain cool
and sweet if treated in the same man

We feel bound to enter a solemn warning
against the use Of Intoxicating liquors at
social tables. The punch-bowl is esteemed
indispensable at even the simplest recep-
tion, and at evening entertainments wines
are abundant, and even stronger liquors
are often placed in a convenient room for
the gentlemen. At such times young men,
and young women, too, drink too freely
Many who take nothing else take punch or
toxicated, and probably they seldom do
then and there. But the habit is thus
formed that ruins multitudes. few lead
ing ladies In any city can change this, il
they will. Let wines be banished from a
dozen foremost receptions, and they will
disappear from all others.-The PresbY-
terian.

.ction, has filed his re-
I, and in it are a number
sot Important recommends
tons to the Legislature in
the way If amendments to
our present school law. He
gives special attention to
County Supervision and the
County Normals.
We would be pleased to
see the legislature take up
the question of County ST.
pervision and pass a law TO
that effect. 1t is false
economy to Withhold from our
public school system a
measure of so much impor-
taace: The state invests
annually about a million
dollars to educate the child
rem, yet, there is practically
no systematic management OF
this vast sum. Those to
whom the money is paid, the
teachers are allowed to be
the sole judges as to the
amount of work, the manner
in which it is to be done and
even the studies to be pur-
sued. Of the six thousand
teachers of the state, two
thirds of the n know nothing
of grading their work, or the
amount that should be re-
ouired of the child. In this
connection we submit this
proposition: IA manufac-
urer invests one hundred
thousand dollars in a manu-
featuring plant. 1t is nee
essary for him to employ one
hundred hands to operate it.
Would he be consid cred a
sane business man if he
should say to his employees
to 90 to work and continue
to work six or eight hours
each day without regard to
what each one did and how
he did it? If so there
would be hopeless confusion
and utter failure. But such

We do not believe this
will be fulfilled, but there is
certainly a great lesson for
the American people in the
present financial condition of
the United States. If Mr..
Bryan had been elected we
all would have felt to some
extent that the great imam
cial crashes which are oc-
curing daily and almost
hourly would have been due
to some extent to the success
of the free silver cause.
The republicans from every
platform, throughout the
land warned the people if
they elected Bryan, prices
would 60 down, money
would become scarce and
that a general panic in every
quarter, would follow.
They plead with the people
to elect Mckinley, the ad-
vance agent of prosperity,
that with his election money
would become plentiful,
prices of farm products and
labor 60 up and a general
wave of prosperity would
start across the land, the
very day he was elected.
The democrats admitted
that if Mr.. Bryan was
elected there would be a
great financial depression,
moreso that would follow
the election of the repub.
lican ticket, because the
republicans had it in their
power to bring about such
a depression, and they would
not hesitate to do so in order
to make the American peo.
pie realize that they were
correct and the free coinage
of silver a failure. The de-
mocrats also argued that
within a year or SO after
Mr.. organs inauguration,
the people would bes'n to
realize the gou, enects 1.-The
free coinage of silveE d
prices of products la - q
real estate would advance
and by the close of his four
years administration pros
perity would be restored to
our people. They said'the
| republicans would make a ,
show of a general revival OF
business if Mckinley was
elected, hut after a short
time a depression Greater
than ever would follow
| How true the prophecy

of Mckinley, the Globe:De'

year, .--Hustler Her.

1 aid. :
: The Editor of the Hustler
Herald would try to make
the people believe that they
are too poor to improve
their public roads. He
admits that our roads are
bad and that it will take q
road tax to improve them,
but we cannot have that on
account of the "stringency OF
the times. If our friend
is correct in his proposition
the conclusion Of his argu;
ment is, that if a thing is bad
it must continue so, if the
times are "strlngent' and it
costs money to improve it.
To put his argument. in
another light he would say:
If a man is starving for
bread and bread on account
of the 'stringency of the
times" is hard to get, the
man must starve for bred /;
or again he would say: A.
has a crop, around which is
a bad fence; to protect the
crop A must make a better
fence, but a better fence will
cost money and money is
scarce, therefore on account
of the "stringency of the
times" A-must not protect
his crop.
All the products of the
farm must be carried over
our road before they reach
the market, and if we had
good roads, it is not unfea-
sonable to suppose that the
market could be reached at
least one third quicker and
one third more products taken
over them than now. Let
us suppose that Sharp
County places on the markets
annually $500, 900 worth of
products and it costs the
farmers S. 900 in time. If
we had good roads one third
of this time could be saved
which would be $1,000, 90.
If one third more freight can
be CARED over good roads,
and it costs $4,000 now to
market. the. nyodEEiG,ts ,GGfs, he h,
s sunn; ~ the amount of freight
" van \ also be saved to the
f Gou,e :. r winch is $1,000, &c;
fms we have a saving OF
: S3333, 80 to the farmers each
year, admitting that the
time aud freighting each cost
$4,000. Or in other words
our bad roads are costing
our farmers annually 1888, 80
more to market their pro-
ducts, than it would cost
them with good ones.
1t is estimated that good
roads can be built in Sharp
county for $500 per mile
The cost of our bad high
ways would build annually
16A miles of first class
road and in 10 years it
; would build 166 miles,
) But the actual loss to the
, farmers in time and freight
is not all that our road cost.
There are at least 1900
road hands in the county,
and they are required to
} work FIVE days each year
which amounts to $500 days
! works. If we place their
l labor at fifty cents per day
, in cash, we have the sum Of
$3.50 invested annually or
; our roads. This added t
e the sum cost by the farm
