A False Assumption.

n
Just here the question may be reason
ably inferred as TO what warrant exists
in past experience for the declaration
that bimetallism, or the equal and con-
current circulation Of two metals as
money. can be secured or assisted by le-
gal enactment. Fortunately for the sake
of all the threatened interests OF our
country. absolute and complete denial
of this assumption can be quoted from
the pages of our country's history
In the formation of the first mint law
of the United States in 1892 the proper
ton of silver and gold for the coins OF
our country was determined by refer
ence to the market value of the two
metals. Alexander Hamilton knew that
legislative enactment would not give
one-half of per cent value to either a
GOLD or silver coin, and he consulted the
market values to determine the quaint
ties of metal each coin should contain.
Thomas jefferson also thus expressed
himself at that time: Just principles
will lead us to disregard legal proper
tions altogether, to inquire into the
market price of gold i'll the severa
, countries with whicE we shall be prin
, cipally connected in commerce and tt
take AN average from them. 1t hap
pened, however, that III the selection O
, a ratio for the first coins gold was slight
, ly undervalued, and the result was tina
/ il did not circulate. In 1884 an effor
3 was made to secure the parity OF on
gold and silver coins, not by Legislative
, enactment, but by reducing the quantl
D ty of gold in the gold coins. There wa
but the difference of few cents be
q tween the market value of our gold an
v silver dollars at that time, but the lay
{ which declared them equal did not re
= move or in the least affect that differ
@ ence. Silver was slightly undervalue
{ by the coinage provision of 1884, and
@ remained out of circulation until anotf
er change in coinage was made IN lS5s
e which gave us the use OF silver as W
l. have it today, exchanging concurrent
v with gold by reason of government coir
o age and the government policy to SO VI
8 hold it through practically giving chole
e Of exchange TO the holder.
l. And yet with these historical facts
is view we are at the present tllne urge
% to believe that free coinage would mal
l. a piece Of silver worth 40 cents equal
? 81 in gold, when the same free coinae
n could not and did not make 90 cent
If worth of silver equal to 81 in gold frol
}: 1892 to 1885. The free coinage OF silv'
=. does not affect it's market value in Me-
he leo, just as it did not affect it in o,

Success In Dairying.

Success in dairying must depend
not only on having cows able to give
a liberal mess and keep at it, but
also on the kind of mixers en-
ployed. A careless, lazy mixer will
easily lose more than his wages dur
ing the time he is employed. Not
only this, but he will quickly con-
vert a really good cow into q poor
one. The milk which the careless
mixer leaves in the udder is al
ways that which has the largest
amount of butter fats. If it is not
drawn the fat is re-absorbed into the
COW and helps to dry her off. The
difficulty in getting help that can
be depended on is the great draw
back in running large dairy farm.
1t is also 40 light job to milk ten,
twelve or more cows twice every
day. It will make any mans hands
tired until he becomes used to it.

All Around the Farm.

If a man expects to grow good
fruit, he must feed his trees; plants
and vines. If you starve an animal
you do not get much profit. If you
starve your orchard or fruit planta-
tion, you will most assuredly not get
paying fruit crops You can Dever
hope to get something for nothing.
II you have more manure than you
know what to do with, put some on
the orchard. If not, buy potash and
phosporic acid in some form.
The hog has an appetite beyond
its powers of digestion. The practi-
cal feeder, going about with his eyes
open, need not be told that if hogs
have corn by them all the time they
will soon become STALLED" and will
not eat nearly as much a day as If
fed just what they want twice day.
Moreover, what they do eat will not
be so well digested.
Now that the hogs are low, the
farmer who has more grain to feed
than stock to consume it, would be
wise in purchasing number of
thrifty shoats.
