The Time to Act.

Republicans throughout the State are
beginning to wake up to the fact that
the next Legislature will redstrict the
State into Senatorial and Assembly dis
tricts. The Importance of electing a
Republican Legislature next year so
that there will be no chance of Demo-
cratic gerrymandering is also beginning
to be realized by Republican voters.
For that reason, if for no other, it
is apparent that the Senatorial deadlock
should be broken with an extra session,
where man acceptable to the great
majority of the party may be chosen.
There are plenty of such men in the
State. If none is chosen the people
next year will take no excuse for the
failure of the present Republican ma
jority to do their duty and a Demo-
cratic Legislature will probably be
elected. Political parties are formed
principally for action. 1t is not enough
for any political party to prevent the
election of an unworthy aspirant to pol
itical honors. While credit is due and
can properly be claimed for such an
act, unless it is supplemental by the
election of good man, it can never be
political power at the hands of the peo-
pie. The fact that a United States SEN
ator was to be chosen by the present
Legislature was large factor in deter
mining its political complexion. 1t
brought to the polls the full strength
Of the Republican party for the i'm
portance, both to the State and to the
nation, of electing a Republican Sena-
tor was throughout the campaign
pointed out to the voters in season and
out OF season. Up to date no Senator
has been chosen for the reason that an
alleged bad man controls enough votes
to prevent the election of a good man.
If such is really the case with the pres
ent Legislature how are the people to
tell that the same alleged bad man, or
another equally as bad or worse, may
not also control the next Legislature,
repeating the present experience? If
the Republican party fails to do it's full
duty now how can it convince the peo-
pie when asking for it's suffrages again,
that it will do it-in the future? Will
some of the Republican papers who are
objecting to an extra session answer p

THE FARMERS LOT.
In the Main IL Is Prosperous Rno
Happy One All Over the
United States.

Because the farmer does not receive
every year for his crops and stock a
high price, he should not permit him
self TO grow Indifferent and think farm
ing a nonpaying business. Like any
other vocation farming has its ups and
downs. Some farmers, however, seem
&c think that hard times" are going to
be with US always. Not so. The am
bilious, progressive, scientific farmer is
prospecting to-day and has no time to
complain. Those who take gloomy
view of everything, and see failure
where there is success. can never hope
to improve their conditions by will-o'-
the-wisp methods.
Above all, the farmer should be hope
full and not easily discouraged, which
is in most cases unwarranted. Your
own efforts viii do more toward salts

absolutely lost and can never get out OF
debt, is a curse to any community.

The Klondfke as q Place to Live In.
Dawson City is nearly ten degrees
further to the south than the ancient
Norwegian town of Hammerfest, where
men make shift to live comfortably the
year round. To be sure there is no gulf
stream to temper the iron frosts of
Klondike, and the average winter cold
is % degrees below zero; but there are
warm winds from the Pacific in the
summer that make the climate far from
forbicding. The average temperature
for the summer months is So degrees,
and the s4 degree mark is by no means
unknown to the mercury. It is, of
course, too far north for wheat, but
barley, oats and rye ripen freely, and
ordinary vegetables can be cultivated
with success. a fair index to the soil
and climate is afforded by the timber.

dainty in the Klondike region. The

feet where the forest is not crowded.

CUTTING UP HOGS.
Not Many Farmers Know How to Do
This Neatly. Expeditiously and to
the Best Advantage.

For cutting up, the carcass of a hog
should be laid on the back. upon a
strong table. The head should then
be cut off close by the ears, and the
hinder feet so far below the houghs as
not to disfgure the hams. and leave
room sufficient for hanging them up;
after which the carcass is divided into
equal halves. up the middle of the back
bone, with a cleaving knife, and. if
necessary. hand-mallet. Then cut the
ham from the side by the second JOINT
of the back bone, which viii appear on
dividing the carcass, and dress the
ham by pairing a little off the flank. or
skinny part. so as TO shape il with a
half round point, clearing of any top
fat which may appear. Next cut off the
sharp edge along the backbone with a
knife and mallet, and slice off the first
rib next the shoulder. where there is
a bloody vein, which must be taken out,
since, if ii is left in, that part is apt
to spoil. The corners should De
squared off when the ham is cut. The
ordinary practice is to cut out the
spine or backbone. Some take out the
chine and upper parts of the ribs in
the first place; indeed. almost every To-
caiity has its peculiar mode of proceed
ing--Western Plowman.

GREEN BONES AS FOOD.
An n Special Material for Egg Pro6uc~
ton They Are Really With
out n Rival.

The value of bone cutter exceeds its
cost if the cutter is used only one sea-
son, but as they are almost indestruct-
ible they will last for years. Fresh
green bone is almost of itself a COM
pIete food. and may be used as a special
material for egg production. While the
proportion of moisture in bone varies,
1t is in but small amount in bone COM
pared with some other foods. The
moisture in bone may be set down at
about 30 per cent, or little over one
third Bone contains about % pounds
of mineral matter in 100 pounds. 20
pounds of fat and 90 pounds of albu-
minoids. The mineral matter Tor ASH
contains about 81 pounds of phosphate
of lime in 100 pounds. 11h pounds of
carbonate OF lime and a small proper
ton of earthly matter. Now, anyone
can easily notice that a bone is one OF
the best foods for producing eggs, as
the fat assists in forming the yolk of
the egg and also in sustaining the fowl
in winter when the weather is cold.
The albuminoids provide the albumen
for the eggs. and the carbonate of lime
forms the shells, while the phosphate
of lime is an ingredient of the eggs and
is also just the thing to feed TO growing
chicks to make them grow. Then there
is more or less adhering meat to green
bone which is largely nutritious and
very favorable to the production OF
eggs There is no necessity for feeding
oyster shells TO provide lime for the
eggshells, as the bone contains car.

and is a food. yet it also serves as grit:

for it compared with hard, sharp grit

cutter does not grind. but cuts (as fire
as may be wished) both dry and green

to feed green bone is to give it in the
morning, about pound to a dozen
hens (some give an ounce to each hen,
or a pound to 16 fowls). then give no
other food until night. but let the hens
scratch and work. Two or three times
a week half the quantity of bone may
be used, giving also cut clover. ground
foods, etc, but always give full meal
of whole grain at night. as too much
soft food is not conducive to thrift
