The indianapolis Currency Scheme

After three months of elaboration, the
Monetary Commission appointed under the
resolutions adopted by the Indianapolis
Convention of Jan. 10, 1897, has made, in
q pamphlet of forty.two octave pages. q
preliminary report Of a scheme for the ref
ormation of the currency. 1t presents a
mass of arguments and Of suggestions the
substantial points Of which are these:
The standard of monetary values should
be gold and gold only.
The Government notes now used as cur
rency should be retired gradually, but al
soon as possible.
The banks should be allowed to issue
notes to serve as currency, up to the limit
Of their paid up and u%nimpaired capitals,
exclusive of 80 much thereof as is invested
In real estate.
The details of the scheme proposed for
mental principles are too elaborate and
complicated to be discussed now. 1t will
be time enough to consider them when the
scheme is embodied in a bill and sub
mitted to Congress. The first principle has
the cordial support of HI SUN, but to the
other two it Is %inflexibly opposed. Mean
while. we can only express our re-
greet that a commission composed of
so respectable citizens should have
repeated the stale and often refuted
assertions, that the debt incurred by
the Cleveland Administration was Gin.
Cured chiefly If not wholly in consequences
of the existence of the Government notes.
and that the redeemed notes must be paid
out again and again under any conditions
of the national revenue. Assertions SO
groundless as these suggest a conscious.
ness of a lack of sound arguments, and
weaken the cause they are used to support.

hemisphere, at n time she sssails the
Monroe doctrine by bullying Venezuela; at
another. threatens the destruction Of the
seal herd. which gives our Pribylov Islands
all their value at still another, encroaches
on our boundaries. England nearly always
has some cause of controversy with us. Her
fortified outposts, fitted up for use as naval
bases, confront our Atlantic and Gulf
coasts, at Halifax, the Bermudas, the BAHIA
mas, Jamaica n st. Lucia.
II England takes into view the French
and Russian fleets rather than the Italian
and the Austrian, in her naval programmes,
why should not our eyes turn to her vast
armaments, rather than to those Of Japan
or Spain7

will spain's Resources Hold Out ?

The report that Gen. PANDo has called
for more troops with which to renew his
campaign in eastern Cuba, and that the re-
quest has been refused, is suggestive. Last
summer there was an account of rein
forcements, many thousand strong, that
were to be sent to the island, but the new
campaign was begun n carried on with
out them. Measures are pending to raise
more money for prosecuting the war. but
they are based apparently on its existing
cost, without providing for greater efforts.
On the other hand, the renewed activity
of the patriots is very noticeable. Close
upon the defeat of PANDo in the East,
Gen. GOMEZ sends achievements from
Santa Clara and Puerto Principe into
Havana province, and there are signs of
revived hostilities in Pinar del Rio. All
Captains.Gen M look alike to GOMEZ.
None of them can max any enduring head
way against him, and apparently it is not
too much to say that the patriots begin the
new year with brighter prospects than ever.
The q~uarrels among their enemies,
Autonomists against Conservatives, not
only in Spain but in Cuba itself, form q
new source of confidence.
1t docs not seem to US that this contest
can last much longer or its present footing.
BLANCo and his Generals have not shrunk
from vigorous campaigning and hard fight
ing, but they make no more gains han
WEYLER orMARTINEz CAMPos. Meanwhile
the contrast between to-day and a year ago,
when scores of thousands of reinforcements
had been poured into the island by Spain, is
very striking. The chances seem to be
that she will at the utmost only be able for
a time to make up for losses in her troops
and material. Then, when her armies be-
gin to dwindle, collapse will follow.

According to a news despatch. they have
q millionaire tramp in Kentucky. He fell from
the wharf In 'aducah recently and broke his
leg. Two lessons are to be drawn from this
unfortunate occurrence. For one thing it shows
that happiness is not positively assured to per-
sons In any walk of life. and that the tramp
and the millionaire are creatures of an equal
size In the eye Of destiny, though it is hard, In
deed. to SEQ how destiny could have managed to
make a distinction in the circumstances For
another thing, 1t shows that the talents of the
individual should be concentrated rather than
diffused. If the tramp had been modest enough
not to BIO a millionaire no might have been
obliged to be too sober to fall off the wharf, and
II the millionaire had been satisfied not to be a
tramp 1t is reasonable to think that no would
not have been on the wharf, and consequently
could not have fallen off even II he had had the
inclination. Make up your mind what you are
going to DO in life and stick 10 1t. 1t is too
much to be n tramp and a millionaire at the
same time. A Jack of all trades Is master of none.

The pals and crooks should be
rinsed once a day in borax water to
keep them pure and sweet.
The hands of the mixer should be
washed in borax water every day,
and especially before milking. This
simple practice will keep away noun

giene will prevail.
1t is cheap and clearly, and the
churns and tin cans in which milk is
delivered to town customers should

linger about the stables by myriads,
hence every p%recaution to purify and

AGRICULTURAL.
Cheese Making at Home.

Experiments have been made in
some of our Western schools Of agri-
culture to ascertain what kind of
cheese is best adapted to the small
home dairy. The Gonda cheese,
made of new milk, seems to be the
most satisfactory. This cheese has
for many years been madein Holland,
but by a somewhat different process
from the one used here. While fresh
from the COW the COW the milk is aera-
ted. When it has stood long enough
to lose it's animal heat warm to nine
ty degrees Fahrenheit, using sufi-
cient rennet to cause cOagulation in
from seven to ten minutes. Let
stand from fifteen to twenty minutes,
then insert the front finger at an an
gle of forty-fve degrees until it
touches the curd. If on withdrawal
the curd breaks clean across, with few
or no bits attached, it is ready to
cut. Divide with a knife until the
size is that of al average wheat kerr
mel. Stir gently five minutes, then
gradually increase the heat until 100
to 104 degrees is reached, constant
ly stirring as the temperature rises.
Drain or dip off the whey, leaving the
curd firm, but not too dry. Press by
the double handful firmly into the
hoop, until full, then put on the COW
er and press lightly an hour. Re-
move from the press and put around
it a band of cloth long enough to lap
a little; and of sufficient width to
cover two or three inches on each end.
Cover top and bottom with q round
cap, return to hoop for twenty-four
hours, with increased pressure.
The Gonda cheese is ordinarily
three inches thick and eight inches
in circumference. A simple lever press
can be constructed of a hardwood
stick, ten feet long and four inches in
diameter, one end fastened under a
cleat against the wall. The cheese
band and end covers should be dip
ped in very hot whey or water before
the cloth is applied. To salt the
cheese, make a saturated solution of
brine and float the cheese in it from
FIVE to eight days, turning every day
ard sprinkling a little salt over the
top. After removing from the brine
turn once a day the first month, or
if kept two months twice a week, and
once a week the third month. The
curing DON should be cool, a little
dampness will be beneficial than
otherwise. During the midsummer
months the making of this cheese
requires less labor than butter max
ing. The process is simple, the pro.
duct good.-NeW England Home

To Kill Chicken Lice.

Since we have been in the poultry
business, like every other person
who keeps fowls, we have had
a great deal of experience with chick
en- lice, and the evil effects of the
pests.
In former years we used to combat
them with lime and whitewash, coal
tar, lard, etc, all of which have some
merit. But for the past five or six
years we have used but n remedy,
and that a very effective and cheap
one. 1t is kerosene oil, and, in our
opinion, it is all that any one needs
to keep the chickens, both old and
young, free from lice, not emitting,
however, the place to dust, which is
necessary to keep the plumage
smooth and glossy.
In order to keep the lice off of the
old fowls, we keep their perches satu-
rated with the oil, so that the latter
are thoroughly soaked all the time,
in the warm season, especially. We
sprinkle it on the sides of the walls
about the roosts and in the nest
boxes, and about the sides of the
nests, after the hay or straw has
been put in.
Kerosene oil applied in this way
once a week will keep the lice away
from the chickens in the hottest
weather.
To free the little chickens and their
mothers of lice, we rub the shanks of
the hen thoroughly, and her fluff and
breast feathers lightly with the oil,
and also sprinkle it in and about the
coop about once a week. We do not
apply it at first, however, until the
brood is n week old. The oil prevents
scaly and rough legs also, and it is
all that one needs to combat chicken
lice with.-H. B. Geer, in Agricultural
EDitOn1iSt
