Tho Democratic ontlook.

Since Inc last Presidential trial OF
strength there have been three fall cleo
'ions in various States and in all of
them an evident loss of ground for the
Bryanites The States that have left
their column are Kansas, Washington,
South Dakota and Wyoming. Maryland
went Democratic last year, but on
platform written by Mr.. German and
making no mention Of free eoinage.
Some suggest that the Democrats might
try Germans idea in the national fight
this year 1t could only be done with
some other candidate, for Bryan and
silver are Synonymous. To drop Bryan
would cost the Democrats all the trans
Mississippi States that remain TO them
and tie gain in the Eastern or border
States would be problematical An cleo
ton practically on the German plan
was held in New York in 1898 and the
Republicans carried the State, with 4
plurality for Roosevelt over Van Wyck
of 17,7SG The Republicans won in
New York decisively again last year
ON the vote for Legislature. Though
party lines were much broken in Ohio
last fall, the Republican plurality was
larger than usual aud the Democratic
aggregate vote one of the smallest com
paratively ir tie history of the State.
As far as the facts of the political sit
uation are revealed the Democrats can
make nothing either with Bryan or
without him. So they are disposed to
let matters drift, knowing at least that
another defeat viii lessen his superb
cial popularity. repree anting now, as al
ways. great deal more noise than
votes. The Republican party holds the
vantage ground of having redeemed its
pledges AMI also of having conducted
the nation through a series of unexpect-
ed and serious emergencies. 1t has mo
mentous work on hand connected with
the countrys expansion, and it would
not be businesslike to turn Ii over to

destroying what has 5een done rather
than lettering it. Possibly the Demo
cratic national convention of 1900, like
that of 1896 may be seized with a sud
den impulse and do something eXtraor-
binary: but no matter what ticket or
sensation is ground out at Kansas CITY

no encouragement whatever.-St Louis

Doctors, scientists and agricultural
experts are all very much concerned
at the present time about the contain
ination of milk and the serious conse-
quences that are apt to result from it.
In the up-to-date dairy every effort is
made to keep the milk from being con-
taminated by stable dirt or foreign
matter. which may adhere to the cows
teats or tanks, or which may be float
ing around in the air in the stable.
Among the precautions suggested are
mechanical mixers, but these have not
come into extensive use although in
one form oy another there are isolated
examples of their use in dalries in diff
ferent parts of the world. The illus
tration here presented Is a suggestion
along this line and represents the idea
of John G. Dulgan, of Melbourne, Vic
toria. Ii comprises teat cups, with
finger loops for the thumb and finger
arranged longitudinally on opposite
sides, which prevent the mixers hands
from coming in contact with the teats
and thus transferring dirt or disease
germs from one animal to another. The
milk is conducted to the milk pail
through rubber tubes, and, as the pail
is inclosed there is no contamination
there, so that provided the milk is
from a good, healthy COW, the dairy

Monopoly in Poultry.

The poultry trade, it is said, views
with alarm the giant strides made by
the big packing firms toward control
of what has been for many years a
profitable line of business. These con
Germs have for a year or more been
making large additions to the capacity
of their poultry packing plants, and,
further than this, they are represented
to be now reaching out for mastery
over the chicken-producing territories
of Kansas. Missouri, Illinois and the
Northwest. The margin of profits in
the poultry packing business has been
good for those who operate on a com
paratively small scale, and it is no
wonder that the big packing firms
should undertake TO monopolize a field
for which they have exceptional facili-
ties in matters of transportation. stor-
ing and understanding.

Small Garden plots.

The small garden is the one that
gives its owner pleasure. Probably the
majority of those who cultivate small
gardens make no profit, but actually
suffer loss, when the crops are COM
pared with the cost of seeds. fertilizers
and labor, but there is considerable
pleasure derived, the value of which
can not be estimated. No matter how
small the plot owned or rented may be,
the one who can bestow a portion of
time to the cultivation of garden crops
this spring should do so. There are
some things grown in a garden that
can not easily be procured in market,
when the freshness and quality are
considered No one can buy tomatoes
in market equal to those taken from
the vines and placed on the table. If
a plot is very fertile. and is no larger
than half an acre. the amount of prod
uce that can be given thereon will sup
ply an ordinary family from early
spring until late in the fall. Beginning
with onions and green peas, with beets,
carrots, parsnips and early cabbage,
followed with string beans, Lima
beans, tomatoes. sweet corn, turnips
and late cabbages, two crops can be
grown on the same location during the
season. Potatoes need not be planted
in q garden. as the crop demands pro-
lection from the beetle. This spring. il
desired, q small strawberry patch may
be started, which will come into bear
ing the following spring.
