Setting Milk.-As the weather grows
cooler there is great necessity for set
ting milk for cream as soon as possible
after it is taken from the COW. Cool

when a frosty temperature prevails.

milk has to the surface, and II this
is again mixed with the milk some
of this cream will not again rise. The
milking should be done in wooden pals
rather than in those Of metal. There
is no difficulty in keeping wooden milk
pals sweet and fit for milk If they
are thoroughly washed and scalded
everytime milk has been emptied from
them. The same washing and scaldins
Is required for metal pails.-Ex.

Move the Butter.-Because money is
easier is no reason why holders of cold
storage butter and eggs should leave
their goods in storage any additional
length Of time. These goods should be
moved and moved about as rapidly al
possible. Even good times in this
country will not increase consumption
sufficiently to take care of the surplus
butter. It must be exported, and ex-
ports from our seaboard were not salts

Setting Apple Trees.-More iniur.
has been done and more loss incurred
by close setting than from any other
cause except neglect. From experience
I know whereof / speak, and my advice
Is to set all wide-spreading varieties
and most are-not less than 30 feet
apart each way and 30x35 would be bet
tel. I have seen trees Get only 8 feet
apart each way, making $40 to the acre
but they were the Duchess. and they
were young trees, having been set eigh.
years only. There were four acres and
they produced at that age 700 barrels Of
apples, paying all expenses Of setting
and caring for up to that time. The
limbs then touched, and the owner in
tended to cut out as they grew, q suM-
cheney { enable them to bear well. But
such cases of close setting are rare, and
can be recommended only for a special
purpose and under high cultivation

BLOW For silver.

The Peruvian government in April
suspended the coinage Of silver and de-
cided to prohibit its importation after

ed to borrow money and that she could
not do so while OH silver basis with

The Shylccks of Europe refused to loan
at low rates and to take chances of los

are those prepared by Professor Irving
Fisher and published in August, 1896,
by the American Economic association.
These show only market or bank rates
of interest in London, Berlin, Paris,
New York, Calcutta, Tokyo and Shang-
hal for a series of years, and Of course
these are far below the average rates.
Professor Fisher finds that the average
bank rate of interest from 1875 to 1879
T2as 3. s per cent in the four gold stand
Srd countries and TO- per cent in the
:hree silver standard countries. In sill
yer standard countries the rate had fallen
but little, the average for 1904 being
1917 per cent. In gold standard coun-
tries the rate had fallen over 20 per
cent, or from g. 2 in 1904, These facts
.ond to show that there is some good
reason why interest is lower in gold
standard countries. They are confirmed
by the further facts that many large
hams and some small ones made in sill
yer standard countries are made pay
able i'll gold and at rates of interest far
below these prevailing. One of the al
legged reasons why Japan has changed
from silver TO gold basis is to obtain
lower rates of interest on loans which
she wished to negotiate.
There is more i'll this subject of cheap
money than some silverites dream of.
The best money is, in fact, the cheapest.
If the borrower THINKS otherwise, let
him have his cheap money and pay the
increased rates of interest charged for it,

rhe NATIONAL r1nanelal sehool.

The National Financial school is
making some Roadway i'll the middle
northern states and perhaps also in 9th
or sections of the country. It's ostensi-
bic object is to conduct nonpartisan
study of American finance. It's pros
peotus, however, contains some express
sions such as restoration of a thorough
~ American financial policy" which
indicates the real object Of the pro
meters. The organization was recently
extended into Boone county, Ind,
where seven financial schools besides
the advance school, and the county
school" are now in operation, each with
presidents, secretaries, instructors and
directors.
These financial schools should be en-
couraged by all sound money men and
organizations There is no more GER
tain way of Kidding the country Of
the l6-to.1-er than by educating the
voters ON the money question. If the
schools arc real schools and not merely
lecture rcoms, there cannot be too many
of them. As they arc nonpartisan, books
and literature ON both sides of the sill
yer question should be provided for
their use. In this connection the sound
currency committee of the Reform club,
SO William street, New York city, of
fers TO send free Of charge limited
supply of literature to the officers of
any Of these schools asking for same.
Send for its literature and be ready to
vote intelligently on this question should
it be up for settlement as the next con-
gressional and presidential elections,

It will pay silverites who want cheap
money--that is, money at low rates Of
infercst--to study the rates Of interest
charged in gold and silver standard
countries and to compare the average
rates Of interest ON certain classes Of
loans in sound money states, which
never favor reputation, and in states
which favor free coinage and which
sometimes favor reputation Of debts.
1t Is difficult to get exact figures of in
terest rates IN different states ard coun-
tries, but the statistics obtainable are
not favorable for the farmer who votes
for free silver with the expectation that
it would enable him to borrow money
at low rates Of interest.
According to the last census, the
average rate Of interest on farm mort
cages in 1890 was 7.36 per cent The
rate has undoubtedly declined since
then, except, perhaps, in certain states
which are voting and legislating against
capital The rate is also higher than
that on most other classes of securities
1t is probable that the average rate Of
interest in this country is now consider
able less than per cent. In England,
France, Germany and many other gold
standard countries it is undoubtedly less
than 8 per cent. We have, however, put
the rate on the barometer at per cent.
In Mexico, Central and South Amer
lean countries and in most other coun-
tries ON silver basis the rates Of inter
est will probably average moro rather
than less than 10per cent Statistics on
ordinary loans ON farm mortgages are
not available for comparison IN these
countries. Perhaps the best available

Bill of 81 for moving court

of the building.
Bill of H. B. Billingsly, consta-

Board referred Thcs. H. Saw

ties, got into Jail, and to get him
out this expense was incurred.
Chairman Carney called atten-
tion to the fact that several weeks
ago there was nearly a Jail deliv-
cry, which was alone prevented
by the timely arrival of George
Smith. 1t seems the jaiier, Chas.
Smith was absent at the time in
the office of the sheriff. What
Chairman Carney desired to know
was who was responsible for the
conduct of the jailor-the keep
ing Of the prisoners. He was in
formed the sheriff named the Jail
or and was responsible for the
safe keeping of the prisoners. The
matter was dropped, but the
board did the sheriff AN injustice
In not calling him in and hearing
his statement, which will appear
in the Star tomorrow.
Only half a dozen paid lice nses
were reported.
The amount of redemption fund
received from the state comptrol-
Ter was S24S.4S.
II. w. Long, who was present
at the meeting, called the atten-
ton of the board to the sale by
the state Of what is known as the
Hammond bonds. He thought it
would be well to see whether Ma
rlon county had received it's pro
rata of the money and how much
of that money was in the Mer-
chants National bank at the time
Of the failure. A memorandum
was made and the county attor-
ney's attention will be called to
same.
Tax Assessor J. G.. Mathews
was present with his books and
explained the progress he was
making on them. He had fully
carried out the assessments on hall
the property Of the county, and
50 far the decrease in assessed
valuation was Slt3,OO less thar
thH valuation Of 1896, and the to-
tai assess nant Of 1897 of Marion
county would be about S4OO, ,OO(
less than in 1896. The total as
sessed value OF the county will be
about 100000. Toe showing
was very satisfactory and Mr.
Mathews will have his hook,
