The difference between the prices oi
ccrn and wheat during the past year
has led to a larger use of corn in place
of wheat as bread. Not only has its use
been increased directly in the familiar
form of cornmeal, but indirectly by
blending the corn product with wheat
-four. This blended -four is made both
for the home market and for export. To
what extent the blending practice has
being in some sense trade secret. A
reliable trade journal estimates a re-
duction of eight per cent. in the con-
sumption of wheat -four in this coun-
try

KEEP MORE SHEEP.

Many Reasons WEy Every Farmer
Should Have u Flock.
There are a number of reasons why
sheep should be kept on every farm,
whatever the price may be for wool or
mutton, says writer in the Rural Ca
madam. Sheep should be kept in time
of low prices because the low prices will
not always exist, but are likely at any
time to take an upward trend. When
that time comes the people will be found
clamoring for mutton, which they
learned to eat in a time of low prices.
When the rise comes the number of
sheep being marketed will suddenly
fall off, as will also the number to be
had for breeders. You will then be
glad that you kept enough of the old
flock to provide for the expansion of the
new flock.
Sheep should be kept because there
are many wild grasses on nearly every
farm that will be eaten to the best ad-
vantage by sheep. They have no butter
or milk to be tainted and rejected by
the market for that reason. \ lot of
sheep running in the COW pasture might
reduce the weeds to such an extent that
much of the bad effect on the butter
would be avoided.
Sheep cannot be dispensed with for
the reason that they provide meat in
small parcels, each one of which may
be disposed of before it suffers from the
effects of decay. Every farmer can thus
provide himself constant supply of
meat that can be equaled only by his
poultry. The two make an agreeable
addition to the larder.
Sheep should be kept in large quanti-
ties for the public good. If the present
rate of depletion be allowed to go on,
there will come time when we must
import considerable amount of our
mutton, and the money thus going out
annually will tend, by so much, to keep
The balance of the trade against Us.

A TIP for DfnxIey.

BY the retroactive provision Mr.. Ding
lev proposes to make the restored pros
perity date from April l. Why doesn't
he date prosperity further back. Why
not wipe out all the hard times of the
asst four years by making the Dingiey
rates apply to all goods imported since
the Mckinley law was repealed? All
this country needed, according to the
republican physicians. was that more
tariff duties should have been paid.
Now IL Mr.. Dingley will provide for the
collection Of tariff taxes equal to the
DinRIey rates on all goods imported un-
der the Wilson law. will not that COM
Densate for the hard times that we have
heard SO much about? Here's tip fof

Treatment of Broody Hens.

When it is desired to break up per-
tistent sitter it is often hard matter
to succeed, but If the hen is given a
new location she often concludes not to
sit at all. When a hen becomes broody
she should be removed after dark to
some place away from the layers. If
this location is very near like the old
one it is possible the hen will become
contented and proceed to sit. At first
she may be given two or three wooden
egus, and if she shows an inclination to
sit after day or two she may have the
eggs for incubation. Glass or porce-
lain eggs are cold and may cause the
hen to refuse to sit, rather than be an
inducemenS to her.-Dakota Field and

constitutional treatment. Halfs Catarrh

upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the

of the disease, and giving the patient

In laying out a system of bitches fol
irrigation purposes good care and time
should be observed. Ditch lines should
be run as much as possible on the high
parts of the farm, and the grade should
be light, about four feet to the mile be-
ing about what ordinary soils will best
stand. The ditch should always be
larger than is apparently necessary.
Both ditch and bank should be built
broad, and particular care given to
prevent the liability of little stream
of water starting out from the side
somewhere and cutting away both
ditch and bank and inundating the
field.-Dakota Field and Farm.

THE CITY ELECTIONS.
A Signal Protest Against the Mckin-
ley Administration.

=
ley Administration.
Local elections in off years are not
always indicative of popular opinion
on broader questions of public policy,
but when they show a marked revul-
sion against the party victorious at the
last preceding general election, we
agree with the St. Louis Post-Dispatch
that it is difficult to overestimate their
significance and Importance.
And seldom has such u revulsion been
more marked than this year. 1t began
in the Connecticut town elections, was
emphasized in those of New York and
New Jersey, found an echo in Iowa,
and on Monday and Tuesday of this
week had it's most significant express
sion in Ohio and Michigan, Wiscon-
sin and Illinois. The great republican
cities of Cincinnati and Detroit and
Chicago and Milwaukee have re-
yersed. with tremendous democratic
maiorities, their verdict of last year.
Elsewhere in these states the reaction
is equally marked and equally signifi-
cant.
And there is nothing of sectional poll
tics in this revolt against the party in
power. As all sections have suffered
alike from the continued business de-
preston and the delayed prosperity
wave, so all sections voice the protest
against these conditions. And if repub-
liean fatuity persists. as it is now per-
sisting, in forcing upon the country a
new bill Of denominations for the pro-
lection of trusts and the oppression Of
the people. and if the democrats make
no mistakes and sacrifice nothing of
conviction to supposed expediency, Mr..
Mckinley will find, in the last two years
of his term. a congress with 100 demo
cratic majority on his hands.-Illinois

Fertilizers and Mnnures.

The cost of fertilizers and manures
cannot easily be compared, as the con-
dition of the manure. the distance to be
hauled and the manner in which it has
been kept control the cost. 1t does not
pay to haul manure that is mostly
straw to distant field, as its value may
not be equal to the cost Of the labor of
loading, hauling and spreading. The
advantage in its favor is that the farm
er does not have to pay out cash for it,
but it is better to pay money for ferti-
lizer and thus increase the crops if the
manure is not of the best quality.
