Don't Relieve Him.

Andrew Carnagie, one of the great
iron kings of the country, recently
expressed the opinion that President
Mckinley will be "read out of the
Republican party" People should
not be credulous in this matter. 1t
would be interesting to have Mr..
Carnagie tell us who is going to per-
form the reading out" act. What
ever may have been thought of Nc
Kinley's abilities as a statesman at
the time of his election to the Presi-
dency, events have transpired dur
ing the past two years by which he
has been given opportunities to de-
monstrate the fact that he is to-day
one of the most fearless, shrewd and
considerate statesmen to be found in
the Republican party. He has
abundantly proven himself true to
his party, his country, and to the
cause of humanity. His commend
able record in connection with the
recent war with Spain cannot be eff
faced by the discordant utterances
of Senators Hoar, Mason and others
who seem to fear for the safety of
the Constitution of the United
States. Though quite a humane
document as whole, the constitu-
ton authorizes the levying of war,
and we believe it to be sufficiently
elastic in its provisions to look after
he results and proceeds growing
out of an armed conflict. They
may not heretofore have been found
SO at all times, but requisite amend
ments have been provided. No
Carnage need not think just be-
cause he himself has left the Repub-
lican party, that William Mckinley
need be read out of it in order that
the constitution may be preserved.

In Hard Luck.


Col. William Jennings Bryan, the
military hero of Nebraska who was
the Is to 1 candidate for the Presi-
dency in 1896, appears to be in
rather harsh luck just now. His cry
of imperialism" does not seem to
be striking very responsive chord
among the people generally, and
now comes Arthur Sewall who was
the Democratic candidate for Vice
President on the Bryan ticket, with
an opinion favorable to expansion.
Then there is Henry Watterson,
another brightly shining light in the
Democratic camp, urging the nom
ination of the great expansionist
Dewey for President in 1900. And,
what is worse there seems to be no
well authenticated information that
Dewey is even a Democrat. (. G.
Wall, the Wisconsin member of the
Democratic national committee, has
also given out that he does not care
to have anything more to do with
the Is to 1 craze. The Democrats
of the Badger State were overwhelm-
ingly defeated upon this issue in
1896, and again in 1898, and they
have had enough of that sort of pol
itical Cruel. They are thirsting for
something more substantial, and
they want a substitute possessing
more vitality than will be found in
the imperialism howl, or a demand
for a revenue tariff which operates
to paralyze American trade and in
dustries. Bryan fondly imagines
that he is still in it, but unless he
can present something new and cap.
tivating in the form of national Is
sue for next year he will then be-
come obscured by a political eclipse
which will prove practically perpet-
,,al

WHAT TO DO,


There is comfort in the knowledge
so often expressed, that DR.. Kilmer's
Swamp Root, the great kidney rem
edy fulflls every wish in curing rheu-
matism, pain in the back, kidneys,
liver, bladder and every part of the
urinary passage. 1t corrects inability
TO hold water and scalding pain in
passing it, or bad effects following use
of liquor, wine or beer, and oyercomes
that unpleasant necessity Of being
compelled to go often during the day,
and TO get up many times during the
night The mild and the extraordina-
ry effect of Swamp-Root is soon real
lied. 1t stands the highest for its
wonderful cures of the most distress
ing cases. If you need a medicine
you should have the best. Sold by
druggists in fifty cent and one dollar
sizes.
You may have sample bottle Of

Garden For Poultry.

The poulterer on the farm possesses
every advantage over the man con
fined TO one or two city lots. While,
in our experience, free range of the
farm is not the best way TO raise fine
poultry, yet We duly appreciate the
foods we may raise and feed fresh
from the garden to our poultry. In
our experience the fowls at large dc
not conine themselves to picking UP
the waste, but rather choose to take
their rations from horse managers and
pig troushs. They.fatten on corn and
perhaps the men complain with justice
''that the hens eat their heads off"
We find it better to have yards OF
medium size, and we have about made
up IL minds that hens at large are
not much improvement on hogs at
large, and what woman can put up
with hogs in the door yard? But if
hens are yarded they must be fed and
there is room on the farm to plant a
garden for the chickens. What shall
we plant? We must have lettuce, OF
course. One can cut a surprising
amount of feed from q few feet square
of lettuce; then there is giant south
ern mustard. A few rows of that, and
you have a green food greatly relished
aud in quantity for q numerous flock.
Winter onions are egg producers. Per.
haps we can find corner for hemp and
sunflowers. Then we must have some
vegetables for winter. Cabbage and
artichokes come first. Watch the
biddies eat raw ~artichokes if you be-
lieye they don't like them, and see the
chicks deyour them. Then we may
raise some carrots to cook and mix
with bran for biddie's winter breakfast
to make her lay. We can cook them
and mix with corn meal to fatten tho
poultry quickly for market. Probably
no vegetable we raise gives less trouble
or is more certain to yield well than
sugar beets. Then the beets keep
well, which is more than we can say
for carrots in this locality. We put
the heets through the bone cutter and
feed raw.
The hens greatly relish the raw
vegetables aud the ducks must have
them if you wish eggs in January.
The mustard will stay green long after
~frosts, aud when it is gone begin on
the beets. The mustard will not APP
pear the second year nor in any way
resemble the old fashioned sort. A
great many spaces where the yeget-
ablcs have been taken OFF may be sown

Grain Heating in Bins.

In all the eastern portion Of this
country there is usually rain enough
to prevent grain from being thorough
ly dried out before it is gathered into
barn or stack. Owing to the general
desire to thresh early, much of this
grain is damp when threshed. If put
into large bins it will heat and become
mouldy. 1t is best to defer all large
Jobs of threshing until the grain in
the straw has gone through the sweat.
ing process, which is really heating,
the warmth causing the moisture to
come ont of the grain, straw and
weeds. This is the fastest way to dry
grain. But if the threshing has been
done, a sharp lookout should be kept
on the grain in the bin. Thrusting a
long pole to near the bottom of the
grain pile, the temperature may be
easily determined. If it feels warm
to the hand, it is above 100 degrees.
The grain is in danger and should be
taken out of the bin as quickly as pos
sible. When it is put back have some
thoroughly dried brick and put them
IN occasionally rs tue gram is tnlo"n
in. A dried brick will absorb more
than its weight in water. If any one
doubts it, let him try to fill a brick SO
that water will stand on the surface.
The wettest grain may be safely put
in bins, if this precaution is used.
There is nothing in the brick to fer
ment, and the water in the grain il
absorbed until the grain is dried. 1t
winter all grain dies out by freezing
