nominee.
And now we see standing around
Judge Parker the same old gang
Olney, German, Belmont, Carlisle and
Lamont.
The gravity Of the situation deep
ems as we study the faces of that no
bic collection Of patriots. How those
Democrats who have followed the
leadership Of Bryan for eight years
can, with conscious political rectitude,
follow the new leadership of the
party into the camp of the trusts,
into the home Of the Ishmaelites, is
past any sane man. comprehension.
But the trusts said, now is the ac-
cepted time, and the gold element ran
to the foot of the golden throne to be
crucifed on a cross Of gold and
promise the golden deity that they
would never stray away again.
The history of the Democratic
party for the last forty years is sad
dening. Oh, so saddening, and why
has it drifted thus? Simply because
since the death Of Hendricks, Beck
and Voorhees,, it has had no leader
worthy the name. Bryan has been the
only ray Of light sent to shed lustre
on it in thirty years. I believe the
mass OF the Democratic party feel
outraged at the way in which their
leaders have sold them to Wall street.
There has not been an issue in forty
years that it has not been on all sides.
1t has been for hard money, soft
money, white money and yellow
money. It has been for high tariff,
low tariff and no tariff. They de-
nounce socialism an anarchism in the
Southland advocate the seizure, bv
the national government, of the Penn
sylvania coal mines in New York. In
the past it advocated tariff reduction
to reduce prices, and in the next
breath advocated free silver to raise
them again. Since the civil war, the
Democratic party hasn't stayed with
a single issue it has espoused for four
consecutive years at a time In
1876 it was for hard money under
Tilden, but found it compatible with
same finance to oppose the resumption
OF specie payments. In 1880 it stole
the breenback platform, nominated
Hancock for the presidency and went
before the country advocating soft
money. In 1884 it nominated Cleve-
land on a platform which made
Blaneism the paramount issue. In
1888 it went before the country on
free trade issue and was whipped out
of its boots. In 1892 it went before
the country on constitutional money
and tariff reform and won, and didn It
know what to do with the govern
ment after it got control of it. In
1896, free silver was the paramount
issue, 16 to l, and in 1900 it was
shifted to imperialism.

MARKETING APPLES.
A Lesson Which the Farmers Have
Learned This Year.


Selling ON the trees is an expensive
way of'selling fruit. for one has 20 sell
at a discount The buyer must protect
himself and he must have a guarantees
against loss from windstorms and the
Ike. This year the growers of apples
in Illinois found it difficult to set into
touch with the sellers. Senator Henry
NJ Dunlap believes that the Illinois
fruit growers have learned a lesson
this year they viii long remember.
For a few years past The BUYERS have
had TO come TO them. and the fruit
growers have insisted that the buyers
should provide packages. But this year
the tables have turned. saws Farmers
Review. The growers have had to
hunt the buycrs. and they were hard
to find. This year the buyers were
scattered an over the United States
looking for apples. while in recent
years many have been found fin Illinois
and noishboring states The large
supplies of apples in other states this
year drew away the buyers and the
growers had to hasten TO get buyers
for their stuff
Some OF the buyers that generally
look after Illinois apples were this
year IN New York. There they watched
the crop and tried 10 buy il. hoping
20 set il az from 20 cents 90 s125 per
barrel. or at most $3.50 per barrel
The New York growers refused TO
sell at that figure and sat down and
waited. AT every large apple center
fin New York were found buvorg Wait-
ing for the farmers to come TO their
senses" But the farmers did not
come TO their senses. and the buyers
had TO give i'm. They finally paid from
$50 to 1925 for their apples. But in
the West the apples sold for a very
low price where the growers were not
in a position TO pack their own APP
| pies The buyers prefer that the farm
crs pack their own apples when they
do it right. The only reason that the
buyers want TO pack the apples they
buy is because the farmers do not
generally pack the apples as the buy
ors want them packed. other things
being equal. the buyers prefer TO have
/ the growers do the packing. as that

OF packing The fruit The growers can
! pack the fruit much more cheaply
than the buyers. as the growers can
generally get some help from their
families and they also have hired
men that are worNing by the month.
The buyer has 90 ego out and hire day

MISTAKES IN oRcHARDlNe.
Common Errors Committed by the
Inexperienced.

The first mistake ! think all begin
ners make is in assuming that it is
only necessary 90 secure a piece OF
ground, and without any knowledge OF
soil adaptability plant Ben Davis trees
and then expect without much ex-
pcuse or labor. 90 I'm a few years reap
a golden harvest
Another mistake is in ncgiecting TO
carefully prune each and every year
until bearing IL pruning is neglected
for three. four or five years at a time.

hazard TO ever set Tie top In such con-
dition as Will make profitable bear
ing tree.
IL is a mistake says Farm and
Home, TO set trees perpendicular
They should lean sharply. perhaps 20
degrees. 20 the southwest If YOU would
have them standing erect az bearing.
Corn, peas beans or potatoes may
be cultivated among young trees, but
small grains or grasses never. Wheat,
rye or clover Is less injurious than
oats, which is about equal to a FIRE in
destructive elements. 1t is a mistake
to allow cattle or sheep. under any
circumstances, to pasture In apple
orchards in any season of the year.
IL is a great mistake after the trees
get 10 be Ave years old not TO keep the
orchard well stocked with young hogs.
l find young hogs a very efficient and
cheap cuItiyator TO have around the
trunk of the tree. if properly encour-
aged by sprinkling a few handouts of
wheat or rye under the tree where YOU
want roofing done. They are also one
of the very cheapest and best extermi-
majors of field mice, which are getting
to be one of the worst species OF apple
tree pests in some regions.
Another mistake I think we all
make, more or less, is in allowing the
grub and fat headed boTers to take
care of themselves and likewise of the
trees. Trees should be carefully ex-
amined twice a year. spring and fall,
for these pests. Most Of US only ex-
anime such trees as show by the I'M
healthy appearance of the foliage that
they are affected. ! think the foliage
of the trees will not indicate the raw
ages OF borers until the second year
after first attacked. There viii be
nothing lost in examining each and
every tree for borers, whether you
find them or not.
