The gold standard Democrats are
somewhat at sea. While opposed to
Bryan and the Chicago platform and
all they stand for, they have SO far fail
ed to ind any issues on which the
Democracy might hope to win in the
campaign next year. The New York
Times, which has advocated expansion
and supported President McKinley's poll
icy In the Philippines, and is dead set
against the utter foiiies Of Bryanism,
being in a suggestive mood the other
day, offered as an issue to the Demo-
cratic faction opposed to the Ncbras-
kan. the following: IA determined as
sault upon the 62-per cent Dingley
tariff that now plumbers the consumer.
oppresses our most active industries
and obstacles our expanding commerce
would create with great suddenness a
highly distinctive ISSUE"
That might do for the rank free trade
theorists, but the calamities suffered by
the country following the passage Of
the Wilson bill are too fresh In the
minds Of the people to make such a plat
form in any measure attractive to
them, Such an issue would suit the
Republicans, as some of its greatest
victories have been won in antagoniz-
ing the Democracy on these same lines.
The advocacy Of such measures now
would simply be grotesque in the focs
Of the present prosperity that has HESS
ed the whole land, condition which
has been brought about mainly through
the operations Of the DIngley tariff bill.
The affirmation OF the New York Times
that the present protective measure is
Constructing our expanding commerce"
sounds like humor, whether intended or
not. The advocates Of such a platform
would be met with most convincing re-
futations. 1t is only necessary to refer
to the records made by the Wilson and
Dlngley bills. The exports for the flrst
two years under the DIngley tariff were
50, ASS, sos. 6S2, and for the same period
under the Wilson bill they were $780,
ll5,10S, balance In favor Of the Ding
ley protective tariff S7sS, SsO.52s. That
does not look like Constructing our ex-
pandlng commerce." does It? There
has been no time in the country's his
tory. when labor has been SO fully ems
ployed as at present, and when business
and industrial interests have ever look
ed forward to the future with so much
confidence and assurance as they do
now.
We fear that the gold Democrats will
have to seek another mentor than the
Times to help them out Of their present
predlcament and as against Bryan we
deeply sympathIze with them in their
antagonlsm.

A New Thanksgiving.

In counting all the precious hoonS
For which the gracious feast IL spread,
Oh, let US not forget that chief
Among our treasures are our dead.
Lot us give thanks that they have lived
And on our lives such radiance poured,
That with the sunshine Of the past
Our later loVelier years are stored.
And that removed from longer share
In these brief festivals OF earth,
We feel their living presence still,
The angels OF our home and hearth.
A light surprising sun and star,
A breath more sweet than bursting flowers
The ministry Of souls beloved,
Gone hence, and yet forever ours.
O Father lot our dearest thanks
30 for the feast mortal said.
That death has set heavens lamps ahAmc,
And thou art nearer through our dead.

REFLECTIONS OF A BACHELOR

The trouble with most magazine poe

A mans way Of getting out of trouble

When man is in love with a girl he
always likes to see her act foolish

what the hired girl thinks Of the neigh

1t will be the solemn duty of Congress
to pass the Republican caucus measure
fixing the gold standard for money in
the statutes. By doing so 1t will make
the United States a gold standard ma
ton de jure, as 1t has long been de
facto. The passage Of the measure
should be one of the first completed
acts of Congress. It will strengthen
our credIt, lend confidence and stability
to trade and to business generally. and
will place our monetary system upon a
staunch and enduring basis.

The Admiral Need Not Trouble.

Iented.-Brooklyn Eagle.
The Advocate and news., 1899-04-05

The successful farmer must be student,
not only of his farm, but also of the supply
and demand for the products to which his
farm is best adapted. Oftentimes when a
certain product is low in price this year it
may be high next year, because many
farmers will turn their attention to rails
ing something else and drop the low-priced
crop, which will leave shortage in that
crop, making greater demand and a
higher price next year. 1t is an impossi
bility to reduce this matter to anything
like an exact science, because seasons and
conditions are so variable and these
changes cannot be foreseen and foretold.
The national and State Agricultural de-
partments are making careful study of
all these matters, and they send out the
results of their investigations in printed
bulletins which are published in the agri-
cultural papers and thus brought within
the reach of all farmers. These reports are
not as full and accurate as we would like
to see them, but they are improving year
by year. They give the acreage, yield,
supply and demand as far as the facts can
be obtained, and they will enable the read
ing farmers to gauge their products to some
extent with reference to the supply and
demand, and to avoid the old-fashioned
haphazard way of raising crops and stock
without any reference to what the demand
and prices are likely to be when the prod
uct is ready for market.

Watering with a Rake.

The New York Experiment Station gives
the following sensible advice in regard to
saving and utilizing the moisture that is
in the soil:
"Let me tell you how to water the
plants / wonder if you have watering
pOtY If you have, put it where you cannot
find it, for we are going to water this gar
den with rake! We want you to learn
in this little garden, the first great lesson
in farming-how to save the water in the
soil. If you learn that much next summer,
you viii know more than many old farmers
do, You know that the soil is moist in the
spring when you plant the Seeds Where
does this moisture go TOT it dries up
goes off into the air. If we could cover the
soil with something, we should prevent the
moisture from drying up. Let us cover it
with layer of loose dry EARTH We shall
make this covering by raking the bed every
few days-Once every week, anyway, and
oftener than that if the top of the soil be-
comes hard and crusty, as it does after a
rain. Instead of pouring water on the bed,
therefore, we shall keep the moisture in
the bed.
"If, however, the soil becomes so dry in
spite of you that the plants do not thrive,
then water the bed. Do not sprinkle it,
but water it. Wet it clean through at
evening. Then in the morning, when the
surface begins TO dry, begin the raking
again to keep the water from getting away.
Sprinkling the plants every day or two is
one of the smest ways to spoil them"

Best Market Hogs.

In order to get the best prices, farmers
must produce what the markets demand
In answer TO questions regarding the best
hogs for market, Nelson, Morris Il Co., who
are extensive packers at Chicago, gave the
following answers;
l. What weight of hog usually COM
mands the highest prices, and why2
One hundred and seventy-fve to 1870
pounds; depending, of course, on the de-
mand for foreign shipment.
2. What weight of hog is in greatest de-
mand by packers, and why?
This depends largely on the provision
market, We prefer fat hogs generally, ex-
cept for export trade.
3. In buying hogs do you inquire how
they have been fed, or upon what kind of
food, and does the kind Of food upon which
they have been fatted affect the price, other
things being equalH
No. Quality and condition is the main
point. The kind of food affects the price
to certain extent, from the fact that a
choice l75-pound hog for bacon brings top
price.
4. What breed of hogs do you prefer, if
you have any preference, and why.
PoIand-C -Chinas and Berkshires.
5. Have you any preference as between
the black and white hogs? If so, why?
No discrimination made. Quality is what
is wanted, although the white hog makes
cleaner carcass.
8. Is there sufficient demand for the
bacon hog, such as is produced in Canada,
Ireland or Denmark for the English mar
ket, to warrant an increase in the produc-
tion of such hogs by the American farm
ers?
Yes; there is an increasing demand for
bacon hogs running l7O to ls0 pounds gross
weight.
Z. In your judgment, can the bacon hog
be as prOftably or more proitably pro-
duced by farmers in the corn belt than the
common American hog!
No.
