PLANT THE BEST
1t Pays to Make a Very Careful Selection
of Seeds fos Field and Garden.

At this time of year people are
selecting seeds to be planted as soon
as spring opens. 1t costs no more,
but just as much 20 hoe and pillow
around a poor hill or corn, beans,
etc, as the best in the field or gar
den. Selected seed and selected
plant food will insure a good ear
from every stalk or a good supply
of beans from every hill, even with
average cultivation Why till a
poor hill? Why cultivate a poor
acre? Why plan poor crop:
Many farmers plant without hope.

During the years 1901-05 the rate
of wages paid in Great Britain declined
to such an extent that at the end OF
that period the workers were getting
$4,000 less a week than in 1900. The
total loss In wages for the five years
compared with the wage scale Of 1900
was more than $10OO00JC0Q. The par

MORE ABOUT ROUP
A Subscriber Has Some Sick Birds and
And Wishes Remedy.

Western Farm Journal: A few
of my birds have a cough or sneeze
and their eyes water, their heads
are swollen, NOPE around, have a
rafting in their threats, and will
neither eat or drink, very offensive
breath. What is the matter and
what is the remedy?
Ans:-Your birds have all the
symptoms of and undoubtedly have
roup. Cleans their mouths ard
nostrils with a solution of one tea
spoonful of creoline in pint of
water. Do this twice day. Also
give internally the following rene
dy, which we believe to be very
good; Mix l tablespoonful of clear
lard, half tablespoonful each of
vinegar, cayenne pepper and mus
tard. Rub together thoroughly
and then add sufficient white flour
to give the whole a consistently of
a stiff dough. Roll into pills about
the size of a small marble. Give
each sick bird one of these pills at
night and repart the dose in twelve
hours if found necessary.
If you do not care to go to all
this trouble, you had better try
this: Take 20 ounces of powder ed
ginger, 10 ounces powdered gen
tan, ounces powdered green cop
peras, 5 ounces salicylate of soda
and 5 ounces hyposulphate of soda.
Thoroughly mix after drying the

if conditions are as they should
be, warm house, light and we'll
ventilated, kept clean of droppings
and occasionally disinfected, you
are not likely to need any roup
cures. Roup is not near so gem
eral as most people seem to believe.
They mistake a cold for roup.
Poultry will cough and sneeze
when taking cold the same as
person. They are subject to colds
same as everything else. Roup is
a cold, but not all colds are roup.

BANK NOTE EXPANSION.

Comptroller Rldgiey's proposal for
the expansion of national bank circu-
ladon calls attention to way to
make the currency elastic which
should satisfy every bank in position
to take advantage of it, says the st.
Louis Republic.
Prior TO last winter Mr.. RidgeIy's
offer to the banks would have been
impossible. Up TO the time of the pas
sase b. congress Of the Aldrich hank
iiii government bonds were Requires,
as security from all banks receiving
deposits from the treasury. BY that
act, however. the law was changed so
that other approved securities may
be accepted by the treasury as pledges
for the return OF government depos-
its. to the great relief of the banks.
Government bonds are still the only
basis for the issue of national bank
notes. but under Mr. Ridgely's offer
cgsry national bank desiring to in
crease its circulation can do so TO
the extent OF the government bonds
it has in the treasury as security for
deposits and within the limits of its
capital stock. 1t has only to find 9th
er approved securities and substitute
them for the bonds.
In this way a very considerable por-
ton of the s9O.OOo.OOO of government
bonds held by the treasury as seouri-
ty for deposits may be made available
for circulation. and though the amount
be not so large as might be desired,
it win help at time when vast sums
are temporarily tied up in crop NOV
ing.
Possibly it viii suffice, since the
money market seems to be settling
back into steady sanity. the only in
convenience likely TO continue being
that suffered every autumn when the
money of the country is going out
from the financial centers to the farm
ers.
After all is said about the need of
currency reform, the greatest need is
to find some way of keeping specu-
lative gamesters in Wall street from
taking advantage of this natural strin-
gency TO work desperate schemes.
The process of squeezing water out
of fictitious values is responsible for
much feverishness in Wall street, but
the resort TO clearing house certih-
Gates was caused by Heinze failing in
his attempt to turn trick in the no,
toriously speculative copper stocks.

The local mining companies are
preparing to pay their employees this
month in checks drawn on New York.
This is because they cannot get cash
from The big eastern banks where
they have deposits. When the rich
mining companies are unable to get
enough of their millions to meet the
monthly payroll the wisdom of the
local banks in adopting the clearing
house system in Bisbee will be APP
parent to all. The employees of the
Copper Queen and the Calumet and
Arizona will be paid this month in
checks ranging from IS to $50 in such
size checks as desired. These checks

THE PRICE or COPPER.

George Walker Of Boston In his
last copper letter says:
Copper prices rebounded very
quickly from the low level of IL cents,
reached a week or ten days ago. Lake
is now selling at IS to 1875 cents, and
electrolytIc at 147s to is cents. There
has been very general and heavy buy
ing. but chiefly by foreign consumers.
Domestic manufacturers have contin-
ned to buv yery sparingly. They are
se~ Il the market. however. looking
for some of the bargains watch they
allowed to pass unheeded two weeks
ago.
u estimate that the accumulation
of copper in the hands of the worlds
producers reached a total of 100000
900 pounds. This was properly sur
plus of about 200.OOo.Oo0 pounds. as
under normal conditions at least one
third of this total would have been
carried by the consumers who have
been carrying practically no copper
at ALL Approximately 175,OO0,Oo0
pounds of copper was sold during the
month of October, reducing the pro
ducers surplus stocks more than one
half The mining companies had about
$50 100000 of their working capital
tied up in copper Assuming that the
average price at which sales have
been made was 1915 cents, however.
the past months operations have re
leased fully s2s,OeOOoO. At least s15,-
100000 worth of this copper viii go
abroad.
How much of the recent buying
has been for speculation is not known.
AS practically all of the buying has
been for the account of manufactur-
ers, with those of Germany and China
most active. it must be assumed that
only very small portion of the total
amount viii come back to the mar
ket IL it is resold; it win be at
higher prices. 1t is more probable
that the foreigners who have bought
heavily to cover their future require
ments. being satisfied that prices were
low enough.
The last Of the copper produced in
Montana, Utah, Arizona and Mexico,
previous to the heavy curtailment of
production, which began in August,
has now reached the market For at
least three months to come the re
ceipts of copper must be much small
er; for should the producers resume
production to their full capacity at
once. the increased output would not
reach distributing centers inside of
ninety to 12O days. 1t is believed that
consumption should overtake produc-
ton before the end of this three
months period The Amalgamated.
Cole-Ryan and Phelps-Dodge interests
will not resume their full volume of
production again, l understand, until
there are unmistakable signs of de
cided improvement in business. This
should mean that the price of copper
win hold around Is cents per pound
for an indefinite period.

Action.
There's nothing gained by schSming.
No matter how intent
You work upon the problem
And figure every cent.
There will be nothing doing
Nor profits to accrue
Unless you work up motion
And push the project through
The thing may seem a winner,
Uncorking wealth untold.
AS much as any mortal
In both his hands could hold.
But If you never work IL,
Pray. how do You expect
BY means of its caresses
With fortune TO connect?
It's very fine TO figure
As patiently you puff
At some old cheap five center,
But that won't bring the stuff.
You have to get up courage
To fight a knockabout.
With several kinds of labor
To make the scheme pan out.
There's nothing so heartrending
As that one sober fact
That schemes won't turn to gold nlins1
Without some one to act
That truth in all its horrors
Occasions much distress
We cannot light our mereschaum
