Parker's Resignation.

Judge Parkers resignation from
the bench adds to the favorable i'm
preston he created by his message
10 the Democratic national convention
in regard to the irrevUcable establish
ment of the single gold standard.
BY this action he practically elimi-
mates himself from the political field as
q possible candidate next year for the
recent judicial office which he held.
Had he not resigned that position be-
fore Aug. 8 he would have been eligi-
bic for reelection 10 it next year for Il
full term of fourteen years in case he
is defeated i'll November for president
of the United States. His successor as
chief judge of the court of appeals for
Il full term will now be elected next
fall.
While Judge Parker's resignation IS
only in strict line with the attitude
which he has all along held with re-
gard 10 the dignity of the judicial posi-
ton he occupied, 1t IS stroke OF
shrewd politics. 1t amounts TO pub
lie announcement that he is strong in
tlse belief that he will tenant the
White House after March 4, 1905. and
the fact can hardly fail to inspire Dem
Ocrats with added aggreSSiTeness and
enthusiasm.
The incident serves as Il reminder
that. although the master of Rose
mount is i statesman of high ideas,
there is little of the rainbow chaser
in his cOmposition.-New York Com

Col. Browns Theory.

Col. Isaac W. Brown, the celebrated
bird and bee man." of Indiana. has
theory that the English sparrow
ought to be exterminated from this
country because it destroys the martin
and the swallow, and the latter birds
are especially useful because they feed
upon mosquitoes. II is Col. Brown 5
positive opinion. often publicly ex-
pressed, and of course he is high au-
thOrity in such matters, that greater
pains should be taken in raising mar
tins and swallows as a safe and sure
means of solving the mosquito prob
lem.
The colonel states that the expert
ment was tried at WinOna lake last
year at his suggestion and with large
increase of these birds there is Il
notable decrease of the insect pests
and as a result spooning and praying
is carried on with much less annoy
ance than last year. He states that
the kerosene remedy as a mosquito
exterminator is a fiat failure, but he
has an abiding faith in the martin
swallow proposition.

The Republican national convention
backed up the Booker Washington in
cident in way that must have de-
lighted President Roosevelt. 1t is de-
scribed in a recent communication TO
the Washington Post by Il negro
named Henry s. Baker. He calls at
tcntion TO the scene in the Republican
convention when beautiful white
girl was placed upon the stage and by
her side Il negro boy, and that they
led the cheering, thus making an eX-
ample of the equality of the races. He
also says that IL Roosevelt is elected

Another Patriot Provided For.

That tlc worst element OF the Re
publican party is being installed into
office by President Roosevelt IS con
stantly cropping out. The latest pa
triot to be provided for IS thus &c
scribcd by the Nebraska Independent:
Tom Cook has been appointed col
lcctor of customs for that new addition
to the United States called the Panama
zone. His reputation in Nebraska rests
not on his efficiency as collector of
customs, but on that OF Il distributor

What a Dream Taught Him.

There is a legend tod Of a young man
who was ever discontinued and ever com.
planning of his lot, but whose life was en-
tirely transformed through the influence
of a dream.
In this dream he was carried into q
beautiful country. After driving Tor
miles and miles, he stopped before a mag
nifcent palace. 1t was built OF marble
and the carving was of the finest work
manship.
The building was of enormous size, GOV.
ering with its wings, fully a square mile,
and everything was on a scale OF rare
splendor. Stepping to one side of the pal
ace. his eyes rested on a dark brown
niche. small, but in such a striking con
trast to the palace that he asked the guide
what it meant.
Image the young mans surprise when
he said: ''The fault is yours. This Is the
Palace Beautiful. and this Is your niche.
You have been unhappy because of your
lowlv station in life, and since you could
not have a position of prominence, you
have spent your time disconnected while
others have been improving their time and
talents. 1t rests upon you alone to make
this place perfect" The young man
awoke. saw the lesson taught by the
dream, and set to work to marblelze his
"broWn niche"

In popular fiction, proverbs and car
toons, husbands are pictured as stupid
animals, blind, perverse, born to be
managed by some woman, and always,
always devoid of tact. Who ever heard
the phrase, "As tactful as the pro-
verbal husband?" Who ever heard
anybody say, "As clever as a hus-
band:"
But the pathetic and absurd truth
Of the matter is that when a husband
is clever he is twice as clever as his
wife, for when he is managing her
the most she hugs to her heart the
fond belief that she is managing him,
and that he is at best a stupid old
dear, fit for nothing else than to be
steered along the path she thinks he
ought to travel in.
l have sometimes been accused of
saying harsh things of men-God love
them.-but if so, here is where 1 make
the amende honorable. / respect them
more than they suspect. If women
think men stupid, men know that
women are contrary, and a clever man
acts On the suggestion.-Lillian Bell, in
Harper's Bazaar.

Pruning Currants.

The fruit is borne on both old and
new wood, but the best fruit is pro-
duced by one, two and three-year-old
canes. After three years of age the
old wood should be cut out, leaving
from four to eight stems of varying
ages not exceeding three years. No
wood owe three years of age should be
kept, as it then becomes hollow and
rough parked, and harbors, worms, in
sect eggs and fungous spores. To de-
stroy these the old wood should al
ways be cut out, gathered and burned
Immediately after removal, and not
left lying around, as is sometimes done.
The old idea of training the currant
in the form of a tree is not now con-
sidered profitable, but rather the plant
is allowed to sucker, and send up many
stems, the number being limited as
above described.-N. E. Homestead, i'll
the Mirror and Farmer.
The Penn's Grove record., 1904-09-30

A cross-bred animal should never be
chosen as a breeder.
There is no single breed that pos
sesses only good qualities.
Nothing so surely impoverishes the
farm as the selling of hay.
With improved stock, to insure sue
cess, must come improved treatment.
Any kind Of live stock will depre-
ciate in value when cut short in their
rations.
Always sift coal ashes before putting
them in the dust box for the use of
poultry.
In hot weather especially, horses sub
ject to collie should be handled with
great care.
All things considered the best place
to put manure is OH a freshly plowed
soil. Haul out as fast as made.
A little care in the matter of water
ing and feeding horses will prevent
much sickness and consequent loss.
In breeding. other things being
equal, the more vigorous animal tends
to impress itself upon the progeng.
1t is. much easier TO tell how a thing
should be done than it is to demon,
strate the advantages OK a plan by
experiment.

HOG Cholera.

I think calomel q sure cure if given
In time for hog cholera. l do not know
the minimum dose that will cure, nor
do l know whether 1t will salivate or
not. 1 have not salivated any.
Last year l had three sows and one
litter of small pigs. 1 put about one
fourth t%easpoonful calomel in wheat
bread, three pieces; two sows ate and
got we'll; one refused and died. 1 car
ried the pigs about seventy-tive yards
to a chicken coop. They would neither
kick, blink their eyes, nor squeal. L
gave each about as much as two doses
for a grown person. They staggered
back and all got we'll. / think a good
plan to give calomel (say to a dozen
hogs) shell three or four ears of corn,
pour a little sorghum syrup on each
grain, sprinkle the calomel on, stir
so us to get the calomel as evenly
through as possible; then feed. 1 have
cured hogs several times in this way.

experience, I am, respectfully, J. w.

Gods Work Goes On.

In the most disastrous periods of the
church there have always been some 10
seven thousand, p%erhaps), who have not
bowed the knee to Baal. Ministers may
have become corrupt; churches NAV have

rich and the learned may have been unan'
imous in their rejection Of everything. ex'
cent the mere supericialties OF religion;
and yet it win be found that God, VINO
vaIues the blood Of His beloved Son too
bighiv TO let it remain imperative, has
raised His altar in individual hearts. In
the dwellings of the poor, IN solitary
places. in the reeesses OF valleys and noun
tains, he has written His name upon, re-
generated minds; and the incense OF their
alteration, remote from public notice; has
gone silently up to heaven.-T. Z. Opham.

Setting Strawberries.

Autumn is not considered as good
a time for setting strawberries as the
spring, but there is a word to be said.
If the ground is ready and there is
time to set them they will get estab-
lished before cold weather. Next
spring they will be ready to grow
and will get a good start before the
new beds are set. They will bear a
small crop if allowed to do so, but it is
better to pick off the blossoms and
let the strength of the plant go to the
new growth. A great difficulty is the
fall drouth. If the ground is moist the
plants should grow well enough.-Na-
tional Fruit Grower.
