Scrub Stock Means Loss.

If here ever was a time, says an ex-
change, when the farmer who is hard
pressed financially could not afford to
keep poor stock, it is at present. The
poorer the farmer is the more neces-
sity there is for keeping only the best
stock, because it is the only kind in
which there is any profit. Only rich
men can afford to keep scrubs. 1t re-
quires a bank account to maintain a
farm on which scrub stock is kept, and
if the farmer does not have a balance
to his credit, he will have to borrow
from those who have.

Cacked Reels.

Wet and cold operating on the skin
Of heels, especially of old horses, very
often sets up Inflammation of the skin,
resulting in crack Or chap, and more
commonly known as scratches, which
is often troublesome to heal, causing
the animal to suddenly catch or jerk
up the affected limb, and go lame when
at work.
Tire tment-Do not wash the heels
with ,ater; when dirty, brush dry, then
apply dry meal poultice of oatmeal
and bran. Apply an ointment com
prised Of the following Ingredients
Oxide of zinc, ...............1 ounce.
Carbonate of lead, ..........1 ounce.
NaSeIlne, ......t ouLSSo'
In mild cases, the ointment is sufti-
cient alone to effect a cure. The GUS
tom of washing the heels without thor
oughly drying them is the chief cause
Of this affection.

DEAN STANLEY'S COMPLIMENT.

Dean Stanley actually suffered from
listening to music, and yet Jenny Lind
once told Max Muller he paid her the
highest compliment she had ever re-
ceived. Stanley was very fond of Jenny
Lind, but when she stayed at his fathers
palace at Norwich, he always left the
room when she sang. One evening
Jenny Lind had been singing Hende1s
Il Know that Ny Redeemer Liveth."
Stanley, as usual, had left the room, but
he came back after the music was over
and came shyly up to Jenny Lind.

Capacity of q Corn Crib.

1t is a safe rule in estimating the size
of a crib to allow two cubic feet to each
bushel of corn. By a cubic bushel is
meant 70 pounds of ear corn, which is
equivalent to Sc pounds of shelled corn.
The rule is to allow IA pounds for cob
in the fall, and II pounds in the spring
after the corn has been dried out per-
fectly. Two cribs 80 feet long, six feet
wide and ten feet high, will by this
rule hold 1900 bushels. Ten feet is
too high to throw corn easily with a
scoop shovel but there can be two
openings a extending down
to within four or five feet of the floor,
and whent he crib is full to the bottom
of these, short boards can be placed
across them as the crib is filled, and
most of the filling can be done with
ease. When the cribs must be filled
to the top, a boy or'mar can throw corn
back to the ends and fill it, so as to
utilize all the space.-Rural World

A SUBURBAN PARTY.

Pleasant it is to meet new people
and to see far countries; to acquire
friends and enlarge experience; but
pleasanter is it to find your own folks
by the way. Mr.. George Buck of
Camden is on prospecting tour to
the West, but stopped off a few days
in Texarkana to see his kinspeople,
Mr.. and Mrs. H. E. Watson. Last
night an enjoyable party was given
at their home on College Hill, with
Mr.. Buck as guest of honor. There
we're games, music and many other
amusements, and everyone enjoyed
them. Those present were Mrs. z
f. Hamilton, Misses Ellen Mudford,

CLEAN CHRISTMAS FRUIT CAKE.

Customers do not get the small

just as good as it is clean, only the

manufacture. All fruit lis washed

care is given to the baking. The
choicest butter is used in making
Christmas Cake, just as it is in our

received from many of the best fam
lilies in Texarkana. Many of them
have made their own Christmas
Cake heretofore but a sample has
convinced them that baking, as we

better cake than they can, and sell

A New York preacher who used
his pulpit as Mckinley stump for
campaign speeches PRIOR to the re-
cent election, has come to his
senses during the past few days. He
read the newspaper reports of re-
turning prosperity in the resump-
tion OF factories and the starting of
new ones, and believed the report of
the vast army of unemployed men
in New York city was false or be-
cause they did not want to work;
so, donning the garb of a laborer,
he spent one whole week going from
factory to factory and from place
to place seeking employment and
failed everywhere, That converted
him, He will not talk so glibly of the
riches to accrue to the poor man
under the benefcent rule Of Hanna
& Co. He learned a good deal it is
well for him to know, but if his
meals had depended on his securing
work he would have learned more
much more.

SILVER NOT YET CONQUERED
0vatOr Says 1T is Better to'Have
Run and Lost, Than not to
Have Run at All"

Lincoln, Neb. Jan. 6.-The Lam
sing theater was completely filled
this morning when the state bime-
tallic conference was called to order.
When Mr.. Bryan entered the hall
he was greeted with deafening APP
plause. Judge Green reviewed the
campaign of 1896, and said, that
while beaten at the polls, the silver
forces we're not conquered. The
battle of Bull Run did not decide
the war, nor had the battle of 1896
decided the silver cause. Mr., Bry-
an said the warm reception accord
ed him prompted him to paraphrase
an old saying which he would read:
'It is better to have run and lost,
than not to have run at ALL" He re-
viewed the campaign from the Chi
cago convention until the close of
the polls. He showed the great
gain made by the silver party since
1894 and said that he believed that
with the efforts to be made during
the next four years, there could be
no doubt of victory in 1900. He
spoke of the bimetalliC league,
which is about to be organized in
this state and advised that all the
friends of silver regardless of party
affiliation, be enrolled under one
banner. He suggested that the
legislature should still further
amend the election laws of the
state to the end that the votes
should be better protected from
intimidation, also that the corpora
tions should not be permitted to
contribute funds for election pur-
poses. Such contributions of cor
poration funds were in direct viola
tion of corporate charters,
He made a great hit when he
said that while the doctrine of bi-
metalhsm had been defeated at
the polls, it had made many repub-
licans hope that bimetallism would
be secured before the next presi-
Dental election. Some friends OF
the cause feared the republicans
would manage to steal the bimetal-
ist thunder, but if they had desire
to steal it, he was ready to place
his thunder upon the front porch
where it would be within easy reach
of the thieves.
He spoke for nearly an hour and
at the close the audience rose and
gave him three hearty cheers. The
conference adjourned until this af-
ternoon. Both houses of the legis-
lature adjourned during Mr., Bry-
ans speech and most of the mem
bers heard it.
