Dangerous Tariff Policy.

Although the Democratic senators
would welcome a speedy termination
of the tariff debate, as they are firing
of the prolongation OF the special SEES
sion, they are po%erless to muzzle the
opponents of the bill and the longer
the debate lasts the stronger does the
opposition to many of the schedules
become. The illogical and undemo.
cratic course of the senate majority
admitted on all sideE that sugar is an
ideal revenue producer and that the
removal of the duty will benefit no
one but the sugar trust, is being more
thoroughly understood as the tariff
debate proceeds. and the refusal OF
so many Democrats to speak on the
pending measure indicates rather a
fear OF making d poor showing against
the argu nents OF their opponents
than a desire to save time and bring
about final vote at the earliest pos
sible date
Past tinkering has uniformly prov
en- disastrous to the Democratic party,
and there never was a tariff measure
presented and supported by Demo
cratic majority in congress which
damaged so many important interests,
and which is. therefore, fraught with
greater danger of disastrous results
at the polls at the congressional cleo
ton next year.-New Orleans Plea.

SCALES ON FARM
GOOD INVESTMENT
Average Farmer Does Not Real
ize How Much He Loses Each
Year ny Lack of Device.
tBy II. B. RUsHING.)

do not believe the average farmer
realizes how much he loses each year
because he has not pair of good,
reliable scales located on the farm.
Nearly all of the farmers produce is
sold by weight, and il is not enough
to stand by and see it weighed on the
buyers scales. You should have a set
of your own in your yard so that you
may be sure you are getting all you
are entitled to. / do not mean to in
sinuate that buyers are dishonest, but
mistakes are sometimes too easily
made.
II you feed a number OF hogs you
should have pair OF platform scales
to weigh them ON when you com
mence to feed them, and then by
weighing the grain that is fed them
you should be able to tell whether
you we're doing it at profit and how
much. When you are ready TO deliver
to market it takes just few minutes
to weigh your wagon empty and again
after the hogs are loaded, and then
you are able to tell where you are.
OF course you must allow a little for
shrinkage. From my own experience
| would say fat hogs will shrink about
two pounds apiece, drawing four
miles.
Here in southern Illinois many of
the hogs and cattle are sold to the
buyers, who come and buy them at
the farm. and unless pair OF scales

ed of. This, of course, is too uncer-
tain. The buyers are buying all the
time and are very apt TO make price
that is more than safe for themselves.
Besides there is not the satisfaction
In the deal that there is where you
see them weighed en- your own
scales
When you go to the market to buy
a piece of meat or to the grocery for
sugar it is never Jumped off, but care
fully weighed. and | believe that It
is a poor rule that won't work both
ways. II it pays these people to have
scales, why viii il not pay you?
If you are farmer that does not
feed stock, but sell your hay and
grain to feeders. you certainly do
need a pair of scales. You cannot
afford to guess off load of hay. What
you would lose in this way ia year
would usually buy pair Of good
scales il you do much business. If
you sell your corn to feeders you are
liable to lose money by guessing of
crib of corn or by measuring 1t.
This, as you plainly see. is not a safe
way to do business.
When you draw your wheat, oats or
rye to market and try 10 load about
the same every time you may find
that the loads vary 200 pounds or
NOR. No use to kick, unless you
kicI ourself because you have not
bought a pair of scales, for they are
constantly being advertised Ia the
best farm journals
The first year had my scales got
enough more money on two deals to
half pay for the scales. One was
load Of wheat that fell short 500
pounds, and the other was wool. and
still some will say 1t does not pay to
bother with weighing everything you
sell. They are satisfied as long as
they can see the weighing done, but
even this is not always safe.

stylish finish.
Flarins 6rims Mark Fashion.
The new shapes, aside from the
Niniche which slants low over the
face in front and rears itself to
nine-inch height at the back, with a
perfectly fiat crown, nearly all have
brims fiaring away from the face. Not
that either the hat or brim are very
large. The first hats are conserva-
tive
A very decided note in millinery is
that crowns will be soft Not every
crown of every hat, but those in vel
vet and soft velour and plush. There
are others in hatters' plush and beav-
er and some sailors which are smart
street models and which obviously
could not be soft
Black velvet came in very early this
year as sort of rival for maline
Whole hats are worn of it, both
small and large, and there are crowns
of panne velvet and long haired
beaver added to narrow brims of fine
straw. The velvet crowns came out
first, and they were quickly followed
by the beaver ones. This is a return
to the more dominant fashion in
French Millinery last summer
Velvet Dominant Material.
Possibly the milliners have whole
mass of beaver left over from last
autumn, and they see a chance to use
it now that some one has brought
velvet into fashion this month.

During the hot weather many farm
srs fail to give their cream the prop
er attention. In order to have it in
the best condition the milk must be
clean, that Is. the COWS must be clean
and free from any dirt that might
drop into the milk during the process
OF milking The mixers should have
clean. dry hands and the milk pals
must be clean
The cream separator should be
taken apart and thoroughly cleaned
each time it is used and just before
using it should be flushed out with
clean hot water.
Experience teaches me that 1t is
better TO run the milk through the
separator as soon as possible after
milking. while it is yet warm. this
leaves the skimmilk in prime eondi-
