Coin of all descriptions is manufactured
by dies which cut from a metal rod the
exact diameter of the coin disks of suitable
size, which are called blanks These are
afterward passed on TO machine which
stamps them with the devices employed on
diverse and reverse and mills the edges.
The milling machine is considered to be
the greatest improvement in the manu-
facture of coin, since, by its use, coins
cannot be Clipped as they were before it
was employed. Such wonderful accuracy
Is shown by the stamping machines that
Tor a coin to vary in weight even a single

Growing Second Crop POTATOES.

The second crop is grown from the
potatoes of the second crop of the previ-
GUS year, the same as used for the first
crop, and not from potatoes grown early
the same year. These are called second
crop because they are often grown on
land from which an early crop has been
dug. In Kentucky where, probably, the
best second crop potatoes are produced,
this crop is planted in July and some
times as late as early in August When
planted SO late, they are frequently cut
down by frost before mature, but these
immature potatoes are said to be the
best for seed, although quite small. The
ground must be very fertile Rural

HE SIDES WITH BAKER.
Ex- Governor A. p.
Riddle on Patronage.
Regards it as a Vested Right
of the Senator.
Contest Between Baker ard Leland,
he Says, is Not Being Waged
Over the Fitness of the
Candidates.

1T seems to me-" said ex-lieutenant
governor and ex-superintendent of in
surance, A. P. Riddle, as he leaned back
in a comfortable chair at the Copeland
that the only proper solution OF the
contest over federal appointments IN
Kansas is for the president to accept the
recommendations of the United States
senator.
4 do not say this in a spirit of criti-
cism against Mr., Leland continued
Mr. Riddle, "as I have always felt that
Mr. Leland is a fair man and does what
he can to advance the interests of the
party. However. I cannot agree with
the idea that he should control the pat
rOnage in Kansas. Mr.. Baker is the
United States senator from Kansas
The disposition of the patronage. is one
of the prerOgatives of his otf1ce ana L
am in favor of permitting him to aVall
himself of all the opportunities Whlch
are presented to him by reason of such
circumstances.
I do not believe it is a question Of
men or their fitness for the position
particularly. OF course some men
would object to the appointment OF any
of those mentioned for the places over
which there is a contest. 1t is simply
a question as to who shall control the
patronage The right is unqueStOn-
ably vested in Senator Baker Since
that is true I think there should be no
objection raised"
Recalling the political history of the
years gone by, Mr.. Riddle said:
There is, so far as 1 can remember,
but one notable instance in the history
of the party in this country where this
question has been raised. This was
when President Garfield refused to ac-
cept the recommendations of the
United States senator from New York
and appointed a collector for the port
himself This raised a storm among
the politicians but Mr.. Garfield eX-
planned his action by saying that the
collector of the port at New York City
was an official of national Importance;
that it could not legitimately be re-
garded as a part of the patronage Of
the state of New York and concluded
by declaring that the president had the
same right to appoint a collector of the
port for New York as he did to select
a member for his own cabinet
mo such questions are involved in
the Kansas controversy and it seems to
me that the proper way to dispose of
the matter is to leave it in the hands Of
Senator Baker"
Discussing state issues, Mr.. Riddle
Said:f'Rs belieVeithattheR RepublicansrT1l
carry Kansas next year by an over
Whelming majority. In many Kansas
many FODulists who will retain this
position in the next campaign if an
alliance of all the elements opposed to
Repubitcanlsm is effected. There is an
under current in the POpulist party
which presages danger to the party $
interest. Many of them admit that the
present administration is not SatiSfac-
tory; that promises have been neglect
ed and party principles OVerthrOwn for
the sake of office
Reasoning upon the logic of the
campaigns of the past few years defeat
stares the administration in the face
and l sincerely believe it will OVertake
them at the polls"
