Enemies of Young Chickens.

The two great difficulties in the wny
OF raising chickens on farm, lice and
hawks, are easily managed. For the
first, dust the hen, while sitting, with
insect powder, and after the chickens
are few days old, wet piece of cloth
or paper in kerosene and squeeze it
dry, then rub it into the hens feath-
ers, especially under the wings. If
this is attended to once q week there
will be no trouble from lice.
The safest plan if hawks are trouble.
some is to make a covered run for the
chickens. Construct frame of boards
about fifteen inches high and any de-
sired size and cover it with wire net
ting. Over one corner lay wide
board as protection from rains, also
to furnish shade on a hot day. If
skunks trouble, lay boards on the
ground around the frame.
This run should be moved every few
days to give fresh place, and if it is
on grass, gravel must be thrown in or
the turf broken so that the chickens
can get it for themselves. once put
fine lot of Plymouth rocks on grass
plot and moved the frame every day,
to give them fresh grass. In spite of
the best possible care they all died
and it was some time before l found
that the trouble was lack of gravel.
If the hen is with the chickens she
will often dig through the grass and
get gravel in that way. w. d. Miller,
in American Agriculturist.

Feeding Calves to Make Good Cows.

proper bringing up OF calf than most
dairymen are willing to admit. 1t is
reasonable to suppose that every
owner of COW of good breed is
anxious to got from her the greatest
return at the smallest outlay, and as
the months of calfhood are few it GER
tainly pays to feed the calf carefully
in order to obtain the desired result
when she reaches maturity.
The COW that converts the greatest
quantity of coarse, cheap forage of the
farm into rich milk is the COW that is
profitable. Ia order to accomplish
this she must have among other things
stomach capacity and powerful diges-
tive organs, which are obtainaLlc only
by the greatest care in feeding during
her calfhood days. Keep the calf
growing SO that the growth of bone
will greatly exceed that of flesh
Feed plenty of skim milk, roots and
grass with some bran, crushed oats
or oil meal, but in order to get the
latter dainties she must be made to
eat lot of coarse fodder or hay. In
other words, make the calf eat good
deal in order to obtain little, thus
enlarging the capacity and strengthen
ing the digestive organs. Avoid all
concentrated foods, have the calves
come in not earlier than two years old,
and the chances are nine out of ten
you will have profitable dairy COW
and not dainty one.-Atlanta Jour

Chicago, February 3.-With early in
fluences almost solely in favor of the
bears, the market started easy with
trading considerably diminished. Ca
bles were most significant factor,
1:30 D. m. advices from Liverpool
showing a decline of one penny. Pri-
vate advices from the west were to the
effect that the spring wheat movement
is likely to increase rather than be-
come smaller, and northwest arrivals
were discouragingly heavy again, Min
neapolis reporting the receipts of 403
cars against 2S4 last week and 231 a
year ago. Argentine crop advices were
very favorable, but they apparently at
tracted very little attention in view of
the recent misleading statements from
the same source. The most sensation
al feature in Thoman's crop report, is
sued last night, was the statement that
the amount of wheat now in farmers
hands is 240 ,000,000 bushels. Beerbohm
reported that stocks of -four and wheat
in the United Kingdom ports on Feb
ruary 1 were 100000 bushels against
LEGO GOO bushels on December /, 1897.
May wheat started Vase lower at
CSC to 951sc under moderate offerings,
mainly from professional shorts, and
the price declined to 945sc, split later,
touching 941sc despite nc recovery at
Liverpool, shown by later cables. The
coarser grains were quiet, but prices
wehe held by the strength in provis-
ions. Commercial houses were mod
crate buyers of oats. Provisions were
active and strong with small hog re-
ceipts and higher prices at the yards.
Good outside support was given.

DRY GOODS.

New York, February 3.-There was
general resumption of business in
the dry goods district to-day. Nearly
ali the agents and commission men
were in communication with the mills
which they represent, by mail and
wire, and were in position to talk
prices to such buyers as were IN the
market There were not many OF
these and their purchases, both at first
hands and in jobbing stores were
light Mail order receipts to-day were
quite heavy, however, and the move
ment Of goods was of a comparatively
weightier character. The movement
OF staple cotton goods for the home
trade was fairly heavy. Export grades
were bought very slowly, as hereto
fore Print cloths are still quoted at
2 3-16c, with no further sales at that
price reported. Prints are firm at
about the same prices as heretofore
quoted.

THE PARTIES AND THE NATION.

H illustration of the striking contrast between the attitudes of the two great political parties of the country given recently in the re- ports from the East, containing the letter of Roosevelt who speaks for the Republicans, and the other the plank of national issues adopted in the plat form of the Democratic State Convention in Massa- chusetts.
 MT. Roosevelt, after pointing out that national problems are paramount this year. and that it is not more possible to conduct State election now with out regard to national issues than it possible to conduct one in I86I I863,' went on to say: The issues for honest money, for protection to American industry, for the upbuilding of merchant marine adequate to carry our commerce with the world, and to form naval militia i'll times ot war vital this year they were in the great cam paign Of I8o6 Moreover, we must strengthen our navy and build up army that they may be equal to meet every demand made upon them"
 In that statement is outlined broad and compre- hensive scheme of national policy. It IS a platform that appeals to patriots Its purposes include the grandeur of the nation and the welfare Of industry
 It is addressed to mean passion or prejudice nor is it designed to excite class antagonisms. On the contrary its promises for all the people and for all sections of the Union. All loyal hearts can respond to it and loyal be given for it.
 Now note the contrast in the sentiments of the opposite party The Democrats of Massachusetts in their State platform declare: 'The military admins tration during the recent war has been stigma on the history of the republic and disgrace to c1vlza- ton The army which sprang into existence has been made the prey of ncompetents and favorites who have fattened on the sorrows of the American sol diers The brave men who fought our battles 1n the West Indies were left without adequate food, med- cine or surgical assistance
 In that declaration there is nothing but fasehood and folly. At the very time it was being prepared tor submission to the Democratic convention General Wheeler was in Washington giving testimony before the War Investigation Commission and saying that the stories of suffering exaggerated, there had been no neglect that the hardshps had been only such as are inevitable in a campaign hastily made and that the spirit of the army such there was no disposition to complain.
 The issue before the people is whether the affairs of the Government shall be committed to the charge of a party with broad national policy, or to men who have no policy save that of denouncing and n1aligning the administration and the army. Are we to have statesmen in Congress or wild set of calamity howlers?

ELECT REPUBLICAN SUPERVISORS.

THE men named by the Republicans for Super
 visors have the peculiar advantage ot not hay
 ing been selected by Phelan, or any other boss They are strong, clean men, such would be above forming Solid Fights or Solid Mines" for the loot ing of the city. They have also for the most part the added advantage of not having been ndorsed by the Non Partisan partisans, clique ot the dlS- gruntled too cowardy to make open war, and given to stabbing in the back They be sereney secure in the knowledge that the Phean-F Fitch sldeshow management has not presumed to trot them out as exhibits To this circumstance they owe part ot their strength.
 The fact cannot be brushed aside that the present Board of Supervisors is made Up of men selected by MT. Phean. That 1t IS rotten and incompetent body there will be no denial Even the maker ot it became disgusted and tried to oust it. It has read fly adapted itself to every opportunity to create a scandal and line its pockets The few good members are over-ridden by the bad Against the reputation of Lackmann there has been word. He has met the opposition of the Mayor For the potency of the executive failed. So loud the clamor for the reelection of this gentleman that the Mayor had to consent his receiving place the ticket Thus he appears on the Republican list and both the Dem ocratic lists It is Republican he will be elected The Democrats merely want to steal thunder. When there is nothing else in sight they will steal thunder
 Voters should follow the plan of making cross after the name of every Republican nominee for Su- pervisor There Is much at stake to admit of any scratching The city has had one Phelan board. It wants no more It cannot afford to have any more l. must display regard for its reputation, well for its purse

ent, claiming to have been an active member of the organization, should Know these facts from association. What mo, tive induces him to distort the truth ana vilely insinuate and apply the term 'Piece Club" to an organization whose members not only give their valuable time for the sole object of improving the political condition of our municipal af- fairs, but in addition assess themselves to pay the expenses of these conventions, meeting promptly all claims, and of which an accurate record has been preserved and is open for the closest inspection by any citizen who has an interest in doing so?

 The ofense committed by the conspirators Of the School Board IS especially grave because 1t has been consummated in the sacred of education. These men have stolen money devoted by the pub lie the education of the children of the people and they have committed the crime while dscharging a trust which ought bring with 1t the highest moral responsibility They are, therefore, worse than or dnary thieves.

TEACHING HATRED.

D ALLEY of Texas, the Democratic leader Tn the N House of Representatives, has been making A/ himself very busy during the campaign and has apparently started out stump the Union It seems from the tenor of his speeches that he IS by no means satisfied with the way things going, and IS hurrying all around the country in an endeavor to get his party and its leaders into decent shape.
 One of the things to which he objects most stren- uously is the tendency of the time align political parties along lines of sectional interests and class tagonsms Thus he is reported to have said in his speech at Indianapolis: My countrymen, no crime is greater in this beloved country of ours than the crime of those narrow and bigoted politicians who testify their love of country by trying to teach their country1nen to hate each other
 The language of the statement is somewhat strong, but there is questioning the soundness ot the sen timent Mir Bailey is doubtless we'll aware that it IS his own party least its chosen representatives, who are most persistent and most outrageous i'll the1r efforts to arouse class antagonisms.
 As full report of the speech has not reached us, we cannot be certain to what particular set of poli ticians Mr. Bailey was referring when he made it, but it sounds very much like condemnation of the whole Bryante clique who took possession of the Democratic party in I8o6 and are running 1t as a species of Populism without the sincerity which animated the original Populist movement.
 If Bailey had made his speech in California the pas sage quoted would have been recognized at once ana by everybody rebuke to Mcguire. That candi- date of the fused factions is the most conspicuous representative on this coast of the class of marrow and bgoted politicians who testify their love of coun- try by trying teach their countrymen to hate each other" He is the who in this community, next after the Examiner is the most persistent force tend ing to stir up strife between what he and the Exam iner call 'the classes and the masses"
 It is gratifying that the leader of the Democratic party in the House of Representatives has perceived the danger to the nation and the disaster to his party that exists in that form of campaigning. It is to be wished he will have the courage to live accord ing to the new light that has dawned upon him If he made his Indianapolis speech with any intent of heading off Atgeld and other agators of class strife we fear he has entered upon fororn hope; but if it is to be construed merely sign of his own re- pentance, he may yet prove to be useful member of Congress- not to his district only but to the whole Union
