which certain kinds of dressed goods are
wrapped answer nicely, and can be had
at almost any dry-goods store for the
asking), cup of well-cooked -four paste,
a sheet of wadding, enough pOngee or
Chiha silk of a cream shade to cover the
board. sufficient plush of q bright golden
brown to make a border two or three
inches wide around the panel, and pa
per of the smallest-sized dOuble-pOinted
tacks.
From the wadding cut piece the ex-
act size of the board, and fasten it on by
FASTING along each edge; do the same
with the silk; join the. four plush strips
at each corner with bias scam and turn
the edge under. around the inside Of the
oblong thus made. 1t is best to fasten
! the turn by hemming with long stitches.
The plush must be cut large enough to
turn over on to the back of the panel for
q quarter of an inch. Carefully put
some paste on the border at each corner
and along both edges, place it right-side
down on table and pnt the panel on it,
pressing softly in place: cut square out
of each corner of the plush where it pro-
jects beyond the board; then turn down
the projecting edges on to the back OF
the board. A piece OF heavy brown pa
per, cut trific smaller than the panel,
should be pasted over the back to con
ceal raw edges and give finished ap
pearance. Drive tack on each side, OF
the panel near the top. on which to tie
| cord to hang the panel by. Great care
should be taken that all edges are cut
perfectly straight and that all joining:
| are exact.
The panel is now ready for the grasses
cattails, etc, which should be arranged
gracefully on it and firmly fastened into
position with tacks These will not show
| if leaf or full head of grass is skill
| fully allowed to drop over them. The
| panel should be hung almost fat against
| the wall. and on a level with the eye o.
person standing. This is the manner
recommended by artists for the hanging
| of all pictures.

THE DAIRY.


Prof. Jas. W. Robertson. of the Guelph,
Ontario, Agricultural College, is the au-
thor of valuable little pamphlet bear
ing the above title. After giving num-
Der of practical suggestions the Professor
gathers their gist into the following
short paragraphs, which are well worthy
of a careful reading.
l. Milk from healthy cows only should
be used, and not until at least four days
after calving.
2. Any harsh, treatment that excites
the cow lessons the quantity and Injuries
the quality of her yield.
3. Cows should be allowed an abund-
ant supply of wholesome. suitable food,
and as much pure water as they will
drink.
4. A supply of salt should be placed
where cows have access to it every day.
5. Cows Should not be permitted to
drink stagnant, impure water. nor to eat
cleaning from horse stables. leeks, turnlp
tops, nor anything that would give the
milk an offensive faint.
6. All milk vessels should be thor
oughly cleansed; first being we'll washed,
then scalded with boiling water, and at
forwards sufficiently aired to keep them
perfectly sweet.
:. Cows should be MIXED with dry
hands and only after the udders have
been washed or well brushed.
8. Milking should be done and milk
! should be kept only where the sur
rounding air is pure and free from all
! Objectionable aud tainting odOrS- Milk

parts to milk an injurious faint. Sour
| whey should never be fed. nor should
| hogs be kept in milking yard, nor near
| q milk stand.
9. Tin pals only should be used.
TO- All milk should be properly
strained Immediately after milking. and
for that purpose detached strainer IS
| preferable to a strainer-pail.
IL. In preparing milk for delivery to
a cheese factory it should Immediately
| after straining be thoroughly aired by
pouring, dripping or stirring. The treat
ment is as beneficial for the morning
milk as for the evenings, and is even
more necessary when the weather Is cool
than when it is warm.
/ II. In warm weather all milk should
be cooled after it has been aired, but not
before.
l3. Milk kept over night in small guam.

IA. When both meSseS of milk are con-

milk should be delayed till the milk
wagon reaches the stand.
Is. While the milk is warmer than the
surrounding air it should be left uncOv-
cred but when colder it may with advan-
tagc be covered.
Is. Milk pals and cans should be pro-
tected from the rain. and milk stands
should be constructed to shade the cans
from the sun.

Wheat Prices Likely to BE Maintained

Wheat Prices Likely to lse Maintained.
Toledo Blade)
The rise of the price OF wheat last
fall to something like 80 cents a bushel
above the level of prices then prevail
ing, has been maintained since then
until within the past two or three
weeks. when it has fallen somewhat.
This has caused some apprehension
lest the price may fall to the old leve;
These apprehensions, We think. are moi
we'll founded
The rise in wheat last year was an
object lesson to the farmers of the
country. showing them that the price
of wheat bears no relation to the price
of silver. and thus multiplying one of the
leading arguments of the free silver
propagandists. 1t proved, to those who
needed the proof. that supply and de.
mand are the factors which control
prices. and that nothing else has any.
thing to do with their rise or fall.
The prospects for the wheat supply
during the coming season are such tina,
any decline in the price is not to b<
looked for.

ton. While 1t h . fact that . surpris-
tnxly large proportion Of the newspa-
pers Of the country profess the belief
that international action for the rehab-
ilitation Of silver ~ money metal upon
an equality with gold IL impossible.
nevertheless the leaders Of the Repub-
lican party AID its representatives in
congress are determined to move
steadily forward in the line outlined
by state conventions and pledged by
the Republican national convention in
the year 1896 as we'll as that Of the year
1892.
That the Republicans of the country
generally have expected and demanded
this course of action and that the
pledge male by the national conven-
ton was in recognition Of this demand
on the part of the people is shown by
a compilation of Republican state plat
forms of the year 1896. which has re-
Gently been made and brought to the
attention of members of congress and
others interested in this subject. That
compilation shows that the Republican
conventions in thirty of the forty-five
states declared either explicitly or by
implication in favor of international
action on the silver question, and also
declared in equally explicit terms that
individual action by the United States
without international aid would be un.
availing. This latter feature Of these
state declarations is especially inter-
eSting because it was a declaration by
the wisest Republicans of two thirds
of the states prior to the meeting OF
the national convention that an indi-
vidual attempt by the United States to
restore silver to its primary relation to
gold would be unsuccessful and disas-
trous. but that united action with other
nations was advisable. The states
whose platforms thus declared contain
fifty million Of the seventy million in
habitants of the United States and con-
| tributed practically three-fourths Of
| the members of the electoral college
, and two-thirds of that number cas-,
their electoral votes for Mckinley
These facts when brought to the at
| tention Of members of congress have
| strengthened the sentiment in favor Of
| the pending measure authorizing Presi
dent Mckinley to appoint delegates t.
an international conference and to cal
| one if necessary.

What the gold Democrats did last

probably be reinforced by hundreds Of
thousands Of Democrats who voted for
Bryan and against their convictions in
1896 because they were loath to scratch

The treatment to be given the gold

Orchard Grass.

w. J. Beal. in his Grasses of North
America" says: Orchard grass is per-
ennial, lasting for many years, two or
three or even five feet or more in height.
rather large, coarse, rough, OF light
green color. and grows in dense tufts.
unless crowded by thick seeding. The
lower leaves are sometimes two feet or
more in length. The clustered spikeletS
make dense masses on the small spread
ing panicle. The flowers appear with
those of early red clover. 1t is native
of Europe. aud is also now found in
North Africa, India. and North America,
and perhaps in other countries. Al
though it came to this country from Eu-
rope. it did not attract much attention in
England until sent back there in 1854
from Virginia. So far as quality Is con-
ccrneG. il cut in good season or pastured
when Young. it stands well the test of cat
tie and the chemists. 1t is very nutritious,
the seeds start quickly, and makes .
very vigorous growth, and il the grass is
not n very valuable one it is certainly
not from the lack of testimonials from
practical farmers. The stems are not
very abundant when compared with the
leaves, hence the plant IS more suitable
for pasture than for meadow. 1t is the
first to furnish q bite for the cattle in
spring; is little affected by the drOughts
Of July and August, and continues grow
ing until the severe cold q November
blocks up the sources of nOuriShment.
When cut or grazed it starts up with
great vigor. No man should sow it on
his lawn, for it would need cutting every
day before breakfast. If cut while in
heossom both cattle and horses are
exceedingly fond of the hay and do
we'll on it. If left to stand until the
seeds arg mature it becomes more tough
and woody than even timothy, and cattle
will need to have their teeth sharpened
20 eat it in this stage OF its growth.
Orchard grass loves . deep. rich. moist
soil. Grown on poor. dry land by . lazy
farmer, it will not give satisfaction. 1,
may be cut two or thee times 3 year,
producing large crops Of the very best

WAsHINGToN, July s.-Tennessee's
beloved senator-for beloved he was,
with genuine affection by numberless
people here and elsewhere throughout
this country-passed away in painless
death this afternoon at $40 o'clock, as
tho shadows of the day, grown longer,
seemed to lay a somber pail about the
residence on the hill near the capitol.
Tho end was not unexpected to those
who had watched closest at the bedside.
lie sank into dreamless slumber as
quietly as though weary to exhaustion,
and the closing of his eyelids was the
pleasantest thing in all the world to
him.
When it was attempted to administer
stimulants to him, as his solicitous
friends had often done during the past
few days, he said with characteristic
frmness, but with an intonation of
voice that could be respected: mo,
am tired" These were his last words.
After them came a deep drawn sigh, and
then tho great statesman of the Volun-
teer State, which he had loved so we'll,
went up as peacefully as though the
slumber were an assured awakening TO
bright morning and renewed active
devotion to friends and country.
There had been a restless night, but
the morning ushered signs of improve
ment that gave the watchers hope.
Signs of dissolution did not appear until
noon, when the patient relapsed into
Inconsistencies, which, with fitful in

termissions, lasted until the death. All
efforts, after early morning, to admin
ter nourishment failed, the nurse de-
last words, declined, saying: mo, l
am tired" The pulse then began to
fail. At o'clock the breathing became
more labored; and then, for the first
time, those who nursed him realized
that the end was at hand.
DIR. Brown made his last call at 4:30
o'clock, and after short stay announced
that the patient could not last two
hours longer. The physician returned
to find his prediction more than verified.
Popular Heart Was Aroused.
All day there was a constant stream
of anxious friends, senators, represen-
tatives and others, hoping against hope
that the marvellous vitality of the great
man would sustain him. AT the bed
side, at the moment of dissolution, we're
the son, Edward Harris and his wife,
Mrs. Jones, the housekeeper, the pro
fessional nurse and Representative Ben
ton McMillin. They say the end was
apparently quite painless, and that the
old warrior crossed the river without a
tremor. He folded his arms without
assistance. 1t was a striking token of
calm, courageous resignation.
Notwithstanding grave apprehensions
were universal here, the announcement
OF the death of Senator Harris of Ten
nessee" came as a shock of personal
grief to many a devoted friend and ad-
mirer, and flung a shadow over every
household in the Capital City. Most of
the Tennesseeans did not expect the
end today. They were thinking of the
senator's wonderful recuperative pow
ers, demonstrated on former occasions
of illness, and trusted he might again
rally.
The death of no senator could cause
more genuine widespread sorrow in
Washington. As chairman OF the Dis
trict of Columbia committee ne had not
only seslOBsly idsRsIaed himself With
