SDIOKE-MAKERS.

Yonder is an axeman putting
All the while he cuts the wood;
From his lips the smoEe is curling
Without pause, or interlude,
And we wonder, wonder, wonder
At his ser.ile servitute.
Near by is tender urchin,
F, Who has lowed him to the yoke,
Which the cigarette so fashions
That its rarely ever broke,
And his vision now is clouded
With emasculating smoke.
More amazing yon's the parson,
Riding jauntily along
Smoke-enveIoped by a meerschaum,
Sending up the vapor strong,
And he is it's willing captive
Other deyotees among.
Chains of habit, forged of vap'rl
Yet how hard they IRE to break!
Come, ye bondslayes of tobacco,
Godward your retitions make,
And He'll give you grace resisting.
And its spell from you will take.

WHAT DEMOCRACY
Is FIGHTING FOR.

Under Republican rule the err of
competition has been suppIanted by the
era of combination. Massed capital
dominates everywhere. The dollar
dominates the man. The nonproGuc-
ers' share in the wealth of the county
has risen to IS per cent. while the pro-
Queer must be content with Il per
cent. Half of the people own 81 per
cent. of the national wealth, the other
half can call but per cent. its own.
1t is against these conditions Democ-
racy is waging war.

The frost is one of the agents Of tho
farmer for pulvel iSing the soil. Every
clod or lump in a field is 4 detrimeot
according to its size, a, the finer the
soil the greater the feeding capacity Ct
the plants and the easier the roots can
penetrate. As heat expands and cold
contracts all lumpq, it is for the frost
to break down all the coa1se portions,
which work canIo be done with any
implement. When piece Of land is
well drained the fir st goes deeper, AMI
when the land is plcwed Il the fall and
SUBSIDIZED the frcst prepire it for the

Early maturi y of puilets Is consid-
cred an advantage by some, but when
pullets begin to lay before they are
months old, as happens frequently with
Leghorns, the eggs are small, and until
tie pullets are nearly year old the
size of the eggs will not increase. The
early laying Is a severe tax on the fowl
and if record is kept for year it will
be found that such pullets do not lay
as many eggs in IL months as the
pullets which begin TO lay at 7 months
Of age. There is nothing gained by
forcing The pullets to commence laying
when they are very young.

Farmers who consider $500 too high
for 14-pound butter cow should re-
member that no outlay is too great
provided the returns therefrom are
satisfactory. There is a great differ
ence in the price of pure. bred Jersey
and common COW, but there is also o
wide difference In the butter produced.
A COW is valuable only according to
what she produces and tho cost. One
COW producing IA pounds Of butter is
more profitable than two COWS produc-
ing z pounds each, because she requires
less room and also entails less expense
for food and labor, thus producing
butter at lower cost per pound.

A dispatch from Washington says;
1t has now been positively determined
by the Republican national and con.
gressional campaign committees that
they will not give a single cent to the
Virginia Republican committee; not
only no money but not even campaign
literature. It IS stated here that though
special efforts were made to induce
the campaign committee to help Mr..
Hubbard, in the Tenth district, they
failed signally. If so it is believed
here that the Republican vote in Vir-
ginia will be very light in November,
as the Republicans of that State have
no money of their own to throw away
on politics.

The practice of turning COWS or
young rye late in the fall is II good one
but when the ground is very wet, dam
age may result. Grazing the rye causes
it to stool and the young rye provides
late green food, but while the rye field
may be used for COWS in the fall they
should not be turned on too early in
spring. 1t does not do so much harm
for COWS to change from grass to rye
as it does from dry food in spring to
the young rye.

Feeding the products on the farm is
the cheapest mode of marketing the
bulky materials. A hundred DOZENS Of
eggs will bring more money than ton
OF hay, yet more ground will be re-
CURED to produce the hay, TO say
nothing of blowing, narrowing and
seeding the land and moving, curing
stacking and hauling the hay. When
corn is fed to pigs it will bring nearly
twice as much as when sold by the
bushel. Nothing should be sold off
the farm that can be turned into some
thing more valuable, or which can be
marketed in a more concentrated form.
1t is transportation charges that large
ly reduce the profit.

ABERDEEN. April 15.-The fusion

here Friday night in the shape of a ban
quet in honor OF the birthday OF Thomas

the affair was a pronounced success,
about forty Of the faithful being present
at the festive board. With the exception
of the extreme western section Of the
county. the various precincts were fairly
well represented. several farmers from
the extreme eastern and southern por-
lions of the county being in attendance.
The baneueters assembled In a large
room on the corner of F. and Wlshkah
streets, where the Aberdeen ire depart
ment band played while they gathered
together, and at o'clock marched one
block to the banquet hall in the odd Eel
lows hall. City Attorney J. c. Cross was
chairman Of the evening and Jno. J. Car
ney, postmaster. Assistant Attorney
General Vance had come down from
Olympia and was the chief speaker and
guest Of honor.

deharred the pleasure OF being present by
reason OF having a jury term OF court

they all remained in their seats until
the close Of the seance at o'clock next

The gathering was about half Demo-
cratic and half Populist, but. If the ex-
pressions Of the Populist speakers indi-
cate the sentiments of the Popuiist party
in this county. there win be harmonious
union of those two organizations under
the banner Of Democracy. I. w. Mason,
chairman OF the Populist county commit

ness 10 work with the Democratic party
for the accomplishment OF what he term
ed needed reforms. w. II. Abel, Popu-
list county attorney, proclaimed himself
a Democrat. and the general tone OF the
talk seemed TO favor a general getting
under the Democratic cover in the ap-
preaching campaign.
