The foreign issues which distracted
the people from 1893 to 1915 were
soon replaced by others of domestic
origin, and during this period of tran.
sition the Federalist party disap.
peared. From 1917 to 1921 there was
but n national party, and so harmo-
NOUS was it that in 1920 Monroe was
the only presidential candidate. This
harmony was due to lack of national
issues; but it could not last, and in
1924 four party chiefs-Adams. Clay,
Crawford and Observation-Disclosures for
the presidency, and threw the cleo.
ton into the House of Representa-
tives in 1925.
The great events from 1916 to 1926
were the purchase of Florida and the
settlement Of Il boundary from the
Gulf of Mexico to the Pacific QS19);
the establishment of the forty-ninth
parallel from Lake of the Woods to
the Rocky mountains as part of the
northern boundary 0S1S); the Mis-
souri, Compromise $500 announce
ment of the Monroe Doctrine (1S23),
and the rise of the West.
The issues growing into Importance
were the removal of the Indians from
the Southern states, the use of the
public lands and the money derived
from their sale, the building of roads
and canals at Federal expense. tariff
for protection and a sound currency.
On these the two parts of the old Re-
publican party took sides and became
rival parties, Known after 1884 as
Wings and Democrats.
Between 1925 and 1916 the indus
trial development of our country was
extraordinary. Manufactures -four
ished, canals were dug, railroads were
introduced, the national debt was
paid, a surplus revenue was accumu,
lated and distributed among the
states, trades unions were formed and
the ten hour day secured, notification
was put down. wild speculation pro
duced the panic of 1887, the struggle
with slavery commenced in earnest in
Texas.

struggle and the compromise of 1850;

political issue to 1860. Out of the
war for the Union came four classes
of issues-our claims on Great Britain
for damages caused by cruisers fitted
out in her ports, abolition of slavery
and the thirteenth, fourteenth and ff-
teenth amendments, the Teconstruc-
ton acts and the great bonded and
floating debt. While these issues
were in process of settlement our
country again entered a period of
great industrial, agricultural and min.
ing development; the Pacific railroads
were built, the Middle West and the
/ Northwest were settled, great corpora
tons came into existence and finan.
cial, industrial, labor and commercial
problems became the issues of the
day. The acquisition of Hawaii and
the results of the Spanish war expand

these years our trade declined; a
wave of population swept westward;
Ohio was admitted as a state; Jeffer-
son was elected president; Louisiana
was purchased from France and war
renewed in Europe.
AS nearly all western Europe soon
became tributary to Napoleon, our
country became the great neutral
ocean carrier. An immense trade was
developed which Great Britain at
tackled with orders in Council and Ma
pOleOn with DEGREES. Nothing was
left but fight for our neutral rights or

Scaly-Leas.

This trouble is caused by a
mite which burrows underneath
the scales of the feet and legs caus-
ing an irritation which results in a
multiplication of the cells of the cpl.
dermis, and, therefore, a much thick
ened scale. To successfully treat this
disease the scales must first be re-
moved so that the medicine can come
in contact with the mites. The legs
must be soaked in soapy water until
the scales are soft when they may be
removed. Dry thoroughly and treat
with the following: Balsam of Peru,
two drachms to IN ounce of vase
line. Mix thoroughly. The disease
readily yields to treatment if the first
step, that of removing the scales, has
been properly done.-J. ]. Vernon.

Small Hog Houses.

(, In states where hog cholera
is an annual visitant, the
small hog house is to be preferred to
the large one, though with the small
house it requires more work to take
care of the hogs than in the large
house. The houses that are movable
present advantages that the big
houses do not, as the small movable
ones may be placed in any field where
il is desired to pasture the hogs. The
danger from disease is thus greatly re-
duced and the grazing of the swine
may be better controlled than in any
other way.

SENT OUT THE DECLARATION
How Copies of Immortal Document
Were Distributed.

It is on record that the congress
sitting in Philadelphia in 1916 adopted
the following resolution on the 5th of
July: "Resolyed, That copies of the
Declaration be sent to the several as
semblies, conventions and councils of
safety, and to the several commanding
officers of continental army corps, that
it be proclaimed in each of the United
States and at the head of the army"
In accordance with this resolution,
John Hancock, president of the on
gress, enclosed a copy of the DeClara-
ton to which of the states and to the
various organizations named in the
resolution. With the Declaration was
sent the following letter: Il do my

Cochins.

The Cochin is the breed that was
responsible for the hen fever in the
middle of the last century. They
originated in China where they had
doubtless been bred for generations,
n were imported into this country
about 1S47 or 1S4S. The public was
taken by storm, for up to hat time
it was acquainted with only the COM
mon European fowls, of much small
Ter size and the old English Dorking.
The desire to possess a Cochin made
it easy to get fancy prices for them.
and the few men that had them to
sell told great stories of their wonder
full virtues. The public easily ac-
cepted all that was claimed for them
and began to raise the price for good
birds. A keen competition set in and
the scramble to get hold of the Co
chins developed into a poultry
MANIA as it was termed by writers
of that day. Both in this country and
in England as high as $500 was paid
for a single bird. When the market
was fully supplied a reaction set in,
and since that time the Cochins have
never enjoyed the high favor in which
they then stood.
In the course of years new varieties
of the Cochins appeared, till now we
have the Buff Cochins, White Cochins,
Black Cochins and Partridge Cochins,
with some variations ever in these.

Variety in Foods for Fowls.

Fowls require a greater variety OF
food than any other of our farm ami.
mails. They are neither vegetarians
nc meat eaters solely, but are both.
In their wild state they have been
compelled to adapt themselves to all
kinds of food, and so do best if many
kinds OF food are provided for them,
which appears to be the case with
man. BY a little forethoght at this
time OF year a large variety of food
can be produced for winter use of the
fowls. Here and there in spare places
in the garden should be sown seeds
OF plants likely to be useful to the
toWls during winter. Among them
should be the carrot and cabbage.
which are always appreciated by the
fowls when other green and succulent
God cannot be obtained.
b thing that is generally wanting
IN the poultry ration is meat, which is
OF prime Importance to fowls. One
needs but to watch fowls feed
to discover that they have a
greater liking for meat than for any
other form of food. Notice them in
the field where there are grasshop.
pers. How quickly they will urn
from grain to chase a gr~asshopper or
to pursue a bug! Give them all the
grain and green stuff they can eat
and they will leave them to scratch
up the angle worn they suspect may
be in the plowed ground. When the
scraps from the kitchen table are
thrown out, notice how the hens pick
out the meat scraps first and run
away with them.
We should increase the meat ration
both summer and winter.

This will necessitats u reduction Of

general has held that under the pres.
ent law the directors Of the mint can
purchase silver bullion In the open

the director has no idea that he will
have to do this.

dollars for conversion into subsidiary
silver, two great ends would bs serv.

said In his last annual report:
"No provision now exists for the

which, by natural wear, have become
unfit for circulation. Many such
dollars are now In the treasury. They
