The following resolution was unani-
mously adopted:
Whereas, The democratic and popu-
list parties have for several years last
past been united against a common enc
my, in county. state and nation; and,
Whereas, We believe the principles
for the extension and advancement OF
which both parties nave been striving,
can be better advanced and more effect
ually extended by closer union of the
reform forces; and,
Whereas, No vital or important issue
now separates the forces Of these two
allied parties, and the adherents Of both
bodies differ principally in name only,
therefore, be it
Resolved, BY the county central com.
mittee OF the democratic party, that a
&C idial invitation is hereby extended to
all members OF the peoples party and to
all others who are opposed to the doc
trines OF republicanism, as now admins
tered by that party, to participate in our
primaries and convention OF this call
and in all our future business, extending
hereby full, equal and unqualified mem
bership in the democratic party to all
VINO will avail themselves OF this invita-
ton; and be it further
Resolved. That this resolution be in
corporated into and become part OF the

THE PRESERVATION OF EGGS.

Cor. of The Progressive Farmer.
The Rhode Island Station has been
making some experiments in the pre-
s~ervation of eggs. For this purpose
various sample lots offertile andinfer-
tile eggs were placed in preparations
of water glass; dry table salt; lime
water and salt brine; ~vaseline; ashes +;
gypsum; powdered sulphur; powdered
sulphur and sulphur fumes; perman-
ganate of potash; salicylic acid and
salt brine.
"Of the different methods tested in
this series of experiments" the Sta
ton reports, "the I'D way of using
slaked lime and 5aiU brine proved to
be very effectual, and has the advan-
tage of being inexpensive. It is also
not difficult to practice. For a period
of a few weeks only, smearing the eggs
with vaseline may prove an effectual
method of preservation. In the place
of vaseline almost any clean, greasy
substance may be used. For a period
of a few months only, packing in dry
table salt is worthy of recommended
ton. Of all the substances expert
mented with, the water glass solution
proved most worthy of commentator.
The experiments showed that the wa
ter glass solution could be reduced to
5 per cent and still retain it's preserv-
ing quality. It can be obtained at
most druggists at from 40 to so cents
per gallon, easily manipulated and
the solution may be repeatedly used.
The eggs should be completely i'm
mersed in the solution, and if any eggs
float, an inner cover which will sink
them below the surface of the liquid
should be used. In several tests
where the eggs were placed in stone
jars inverted saucers were used for
this purpose. The expense for the
water glass at even gu cents a gallon
would amount to about two-thirds of
a cent for a dozen eggs. Of course
this does not include the expense of
the jar or other receptacles, which
may be of stoneware, glass or even
wood" E. M. G.

SECRETARY WILSON ON
SOUTHERN FARMING.

Secretary Wilson of the United
States Department of Agriculture, in
a survey of agricultural progress in
the South in the Twentieth Anniver-
sary Number of the Manufacturers
Record of Baltimore, urges a greater
average yield per acre than a greater
acreage of cotton, the return, as far
as possible, to the soil of the fertiliz-
ing ingredients of cotton seed, and
greater attention to livestock indus
try, and he adds: q believe that the
South will not much longer be known
and thought of primarily as the land
O cotton but as a great and prosper
Gus region of varied agricultural in
dustries. With the great industrial
progress of the Southern States and
the development of their wonderful
mineral and manufacturing resources
comes the best of all markets for the
farmer-the great home market. More
and more l hope to see the agriculture
of the South diversified as this great
home market expands. Let the cot
ton crop continue to increase in total
production, but let it's growth be rath-
er by a higher average per acre than
by a very large extension of the area
under this crop. Let Southern farm
ers keep the plant food at home and
send the products of the farm to mar
ket in the form of manufactured arti-
cles manufactured on the farm by
natures processes) rather than in the
form of raw material. Let them grade
up their fiOcks andherds andkeep many
more of all kinds of domestic animals.
Let them renovatc the soil by the use
OF legumes, and save all the fertilizing
material that the farm itself produces.
Then will the agriculture of the South
show IN the census to be taken in 1910
advances greater by far than even the
great progress made in the last twenty
years of her history"

Rural telephones are slowly spread
ing, and in a few years a farmer who
has no telephone in his house will be
looked upon as a back number, or be
compelled to sell out and move to the
back-woods where he belongs. There
can be no question as to the profitable
ness of rural telephones. A city bust
ness man having free mail delivery,
and only a short distance to a tele-
graph office, can better afford to DO
without a telephone than the farmer,
who has fewer other means of contact
with the business world.-Farm and
Ranch.

A great many of our farmers make

A great many of our farmers make
a mistake in blowing their grounds
toe wet. These farmers are always up
with their crops in dry weather and
perhaps fooling around and really ne
glecting their crop. In dry weather
the writer has known these men to
pass his place on the way to Huron to
loaf, and their crops at home needing
work. When it rains and I do not
think of blowing, and can hardly hack
around with a hoe, some are blowing
their ground and running it, for
ground plowed wet is always packed
and so hard you can hardly pillow it
when dry enough. I have even known
some to complain of eating dust in dry
weather, and so they do not work their
crops when they need it. I think these
people need the P. F. in their homes
to teach them how to work their land.

Dairymen should not lose sight of
the fact that the organisms which de-
compose farmyard manure and thus
cause a bad odor, will also ferment
milk and cream. 1t will be we'll, there
fore, to remove all manure and other
~decaying substances from the vicinity
of the dairy and the pals used in
milking. Another thing which should
he looked after is the cleaning of the
drains. Sour or butter milk should
never be left near pure milk or cream;
they tend to form a breeding ground
for the same sort of organisms which
later on, faint the products of the
dairy.

A British journal announces the
death of one of the most remarkable
COWS that ever figured in public milk
ing tests. This was a Shorthorn
Guernsey cross-bred animal. She was
in her ninth year at the time of her
death. Some idea of her great abil-
ity as a mixer may be gathered from
the fact that during the 1912 months
prior to her death, she had produced
at the rate of over $500 gallons of
milk per annum. On the day before
her death she gave sc pounds of milk.

cross between an old English Game or
an Indian Game cock and a Dorking
hen or even with the usual mongrel
hens; colored Dorkings or Silver Grey.
Dorking cocks viii be sur to produce
some large, neatly chickens. 1T is a
good plan to have Dorking cocks III
year, Indian or old English Game the
next followed by Houdans. The chick
en- will be immensely improved for
the table if this be done.
1t is advisable not to keep either
cocks or hens after they are three
years old. Over that age there are
few hens that will lay well enough to
prove profitable, and their room can
be taken up with advantage by pullets.
But it is a mistake to breed from
cockerels running with pullets as the
chickens from such an alliance fedge
slowly, and seldom grow as quickly, or
become as large as those from one
properly matured. A t~wo-year-old
male bird mated with large March
Matched pullets is a satisfactory ar
rangement.-A. V. Meersch, in Amer
lean Poultry Advocate.
