Poultry Notes.

One of the essentials in the keeping
of fowls healthy, is to have the house
dry. This is particularly the case in
indoors for weeks at a time. A wet
house is bad enough in the summer,
when the fowls have to stay in it at
night. but in the winter time it should
never be tolerated, partly for the rea-
son that the sun seldom has power
enough in winter time to dry up mois-
ture in the poultry house.
Science is all the time finding new
ways to take care of surplus perish
able products. Desiccating eggs prom
ises to be favorite way of dispos-
ing of them at times of the year when
they are too cheap to pay a reasonable
profit at retail. New machines for do
ing this work are from time to time
being invented, and perhaps the day
is not far distant when the price of
eggs will be about uniform throughout
the year. If the men that are doing
this kind of work will simply be sat
isted with what they can get for the
eggs as treated naturally it will be Ill
timately a great gain to the poultry
interests. Unfortunately we may ex-
pect that the manufacturers of pre-
servatives will get after the desicca-
tors of eggs and persuade them that
Eothing will so ensure the keeping
qualities of the eggs as little pre-
Th1 90 hot
will be that the public will find it out
and curtail their purchases in that d.
rection. But the honest employment
of methods of drying might greatly re-
lieve the market at times of oversup-
ply. Sooner or later the farmers wife
will learn to apply the method and the
farmers table will be cheaply supplied
with eggs in the winter as in the sum-
mer.
Statistics of Cheese Factories
Cheese inquiries are now occupying
the attention of some of the force en-
ployed at the census office. Circulars
directors and owners of cheese fac
tories and creameries of such char
acter as will aid enumerators in com
piling useful and accurate information
regarding this important branch Of
dairying. Heretofore the changes In
managers at the close Of season has
rendered the making Of reliable re-
mort impossible. Director Merriam
suggests that as this is the season
when the factories close, those In
charge prepare detailed statement Of
the quantity Of milk or cream pur-
chased and the amount paid over It:
the amount of butter or cheese pro-
duced; the amount received from the
sale of each; the amount of capital in
vested in plant and machinery; and
the amount paid in wages The items
should be varied properly to fit cases
where factories or creameries are CO.
operative. In an interview the direc-
tor stated, This information will not
be gathered before June i. 1900. and
as 1t must cover the year 1899, It n
hoped that factory managers or own
,ers will preserve the statements until
the enumerators shall arrive to use
them. next june. !"

The Color Fad.

If the brood SOW does not come in
heat you may know that she is not in
good condition, says the Farmer. If a
litter has just been weaned, feed her
literally, and in few days she will
breed. AS rule it is not best to breed
her the first time she comes in heat
after weaving the pigs. The prob
abilities are that she has not sufficient
~ recovered from the strain on her
system to do we'll. The litter from
coupling at this time would likely be
few in number. The SOW to give the
best return should be in fine condition
when bred, making improvement each
day. It is not reasonable to expect
much from a sow running down in
flesh and in low condition; yet sows
are often bred that are but little more
than walking skeletons, and are ex-
pected to produce thrifty pigs.
Canadian Dairy Exports.-If Canada
can make money exporting butter, it
would seem profitable industry for
farmers in the United States. Although
our exports are increasing somewhat
they are still woefully small, and this
is due to the poor reputation American
butter has acquired through the ship
ment abroad Of poor butter, oleo and
process butter, offered for sale as prime
American. In July our exports were
something over 10000 packages, but in
a single week recently Montreal ex-
ported $4,000 packages. The United
Kingdom imports annually about $780,
10000 pounds Of butter OF which only
about 5 per cent comes from tie United
States. Why should not the govern
ment inspect American butter for ex-
port. the same as she does meat going
abroad The officials of the agricul-
;tural department believe the plan thor:
oughIy practicable. In fact, the repl-
:tation Of Canadian butter and cheese
results from such an inspection. Cans
ada will permit no exporting Of imita-
tion Of butter or cheese and her repu-
tation orboth Of these articles is good.

So FAR AS the presidency is con-
cerne1, the action of the two ma
tional conventions attracts but little
attention. No possible contingency
would defeat the nomination of Me-
Kinley at Philadelphia, and it is fore
gone conclusion that WI Bryan will
be nominated by accalamation at Kan
sas City, He is the undisputed choice
of all the opposition to the republican
party, If the democrats are disposed
to be conservative and polite when
they meet at Kansas City we believe
they will endorse the action of the
Sioux Fall convention and nominate
Towne as the running mate for Bryan.
We believe that the populist national
convention made mistake in not ap-
pointing committee to confer with
like committee Of demo Gratis at Kan.
sas City. But they completed their
ticket as the call for their convention
required them to do, That they
wisely selected a great and good man
can hardly be questioned. The con-
vention anticipated the probable ac-
tion of both the national conventions
in the field as their co-workers. They
went outside Of, their own party for
both candidates. This was a generous
bid for harmonious action on the part
Of the Democrats and silver republi-
cans in their national convention at
Kansas City. We believe two conven.
tions will take this view of the situa-
tion and nominate Mr., Towne as the
running mate for Mr.. Bryan. 1t is
doubtful If better one could be found
for the place or one that would be more
satisfactory to all the people opposed
to the republican party. That the ac-
tlon of the democratic party will be
final is altogether probable. Should
they nominate Mr.. Daniels of Vir-
ginia or some other man there Is
hardly doubt that Mr.. Towne would
withdraw from the race. But can the
democratic party hazard the risk and
the loss of thousands of votes that
would other wise be sure for Bryan.
The experience of the campaign Of 1895
is before US. A repetition of that folly
would be suicide. The democracy
should make no mistake In this matter.
AS the campaign progresses Bryan and
Towne will be the popular ticket with
the masses and approved in the sue
cess of our cause.

sight. Last week |. +. Campbell is-
sued u letter to Mr., Duval urging that
the candidate should be "A populIst,
but Say Ing that he hHd sent his declina,
ton M "A candidate TO his central com
mittee to take effect when a similar
withdrawal was rendered by Mr., Duval
10 his committee, providing II was done
within fifteen days and neither one to
be a candidate, The democratic cent.
raj committee met in this city on sat
urday before the ratification, and Mr.
Duval turned the whole matter over TO
them. Following is Mr. DuvaI's reply
to Campbell,
Hutchinson, Kaus June Is, 1900,
Hon, |, =, Campbell, Wichita, Kan,
Dear Sir: In reply to your favor OF
June Sth, beg to say that have re-
ferred your communication to the
democratic Congressional committee
and have empowered them, as The Of
fetal representatives Of the democratic
party in this district, TO accept or re-
ject your proposition Yours truly,
CLAUD DUvAIn
The democratic committee then
disposed of the matter by rejecting
Campbeli's proposition,
No further acton will probably be
taken till after the State convention at
Fort Scott. What will then be done
we can give little guess, However we
are beginning to think that this is only
one Of the many offices to be oiled this
year,-some of the others being Of
really more Importance and there is no
doubt there will bea union on every
thing else, and that it should not dam
pen our zeal on the rest of the ticket.

W. Y. Morgan this republican State

faith, conduct and action of democrats
and populists in Congress on the

the Sherman antitrust bill. The whole

bate, WAS voted down by republican

political trickery, guarding State
rights, allowing double legislation

defeated by republicans votes, hence
the republicans leaky amendment
failed to receive a two-tbirds vote and
was defeated. The amendment to the
Sherman antitrust law was brought

and every democrat voted for it, and
two republicans against It. Where
