II desire to express the appreciation of

Il blame myself for the mistake made in
taking their position by the Ninth regi-

to the scene of action and hurried for

likely to lose their way. Still. the posi-
ton they took and gallantly stuck to all

What They Ankcd for.

What They Asked Tor.
Fort Scott. Kan. July 25.-At their con-
vention to-day Kansas democracy sur
rendered to the demands OF the PopuIists,

Gratis would give up this pulm, but, coun-
seied by j. @. Johnson, national commit
teeman for Kansas, they finally acceded
to the demands of the Populists who,
when the action of the Democrats was
made known, gave vent to their delight
in a demonstration that lasted for twen-
ty minutes. The state ticket, completed
by the different conventions, was finally
indorsed by all three-Democratic, Popu-
list and Silver Republicans. II is headed
by John w. Bredenthal Populist who
was nominated for Governor.
The platform adopted by the Democrats
demands, among other things. the crea-
ton by law of " public tribunal clothed
with all power necessary for the COM
plete and efficient regulation and control
of railways"
Legislation for the regulation Of pas
senger and freight rates is demanded
The platform refers to Mr. Bryan as that
unconquered hero the lion of the West"
The platform adopted by the Populists
declares for the establishment OF state
oil refinery and the distribution OF native
oil TO the people Of Kansas at cost.

FOR THE GOOD OF SHEEP.

Dip the lambs; this Is the easiest way
to keep external parasites in check.
Sheep should be permitted to lie out
of doors nights only when the ground
is warm and dry.
The "woolly" taste of mutton has
been very largely bred out, and we sell
dom hear it referred to now.
See to it that sheep have only pure
water to drink; this will prevent the
entrance of internal parasites.
We take it for granted that no hui
name shepherd will allow his sheep to
summer in pasture without shade.
Good fences are needed in the sheep
Nasture. A weak place in the fence
may teach the sheep tricks that will
forever be An annoyance.
The hills seem to be the natural pas
lures of sheep. We have many hills that
are covered with such growths that
they are valuable only as sheep pas
lures. Unfortunately there are many
such pastures in this country that have
no kind of live stock on them.-Rural

THE MOULTING SEASON.
AtNo Other Time Of Year Do the Hens
Require More Care OF Nu-
tritlOus RatiOns.

The most critical period CT hens
life is during the moulting season, from
July to December. 1t takes biddy about
put on new one. Some commence
moulting much sooner than others end
get through long before winter sets
in. This is very desirable, as hens sell
dom lay during the moult. or the lar
ger part of it; therefore if they COM
mence early it will be decided gain,
for then they could be got in laying
condition before cold weather. If this
is not done they will pass the winter
without amounting to anything ~
layers.
The feathers are composed largely
of nitrogen and mineral matter. The
first process is the loosening stage.
when the feathers loosen and drop out,
at times leaving the bird almost naked,
and exposing the body to the influences
of the weather. Should they be late in
moulting they should be carefully
housed during cold. damp weather.
When the new feathers begin to come
in it causes great drain upon the hen .
system. The foods best adapted to the
season are the heterogeneous foods such
as grass bugs. worms. clover. meat. etc.
At this period the hens should have un.
limited range. so that they can gather
good supply of such articles as they
need.
During this period it may be well to
add tonic to the drinking water. A
tea made of white oak bark is good.
Add enough to color the water. SONS
time before the mounting season the
hens should be fed up and put In good
condition, for poor hens are usually
slow at moulting. Give them In addi.
tion to the regular soft feed Hnseed
meal, cottonseed meal, fresh meat and
fresh cut bone. The object is to supply
the fowls with feather forming mate
rial. Keep this up through the entirs
moulting season. II the fow:s are too
fat withhold the grain and their fat will
diminish. Their system cannot be at
prime if too fat. Oats may be used
sparingly and bran will be found excel
lent. Above all things rid the fowls OF
lice. 1t is impossible for hen to renew
her coat rapidly and run boarding
house for parasites besides.
Should any be late in moulting. II
would be we'll to kill or sell them, for
If they are not through in time to lay
in the winter season. they will be Z
dead expense. All hens should be IN,
tirely through by December. Some
fowls seem to lose their feathers in q
few days, while others drag along all
through the moult. This is largely duo
to a greater or less degree OF tempera'
ture of the fowls body. The hearty eat.
ing warm blooded bird Is the first on1

species. 1t is easily distinguished by
the fower-stalks, which rise to the
height of one to three feet. All along
the main stem. except the lower part
are the small spikes of flowers, ar
ranged quite close together. These
spikes are half an inch or less in
length and turned back upon the main
stem, as shown in the illustra ton. One
great advantage possessed by this
plant, and an advantage that is likely
to have great influence in its intro
duction as cultivated grass, is the
ease with which the seed may be gath
cred. In small quantities it can be
easily stripped of with the hands. II
cultivated the seed can be harvested
with as little difficulty as timothy.
