1t demanded that an ex-Union sol
der should be at the head of this
institution founded by the soldiers
and sailors and dedicated to the well
fare of their chilren. Some years
ago, when the Democrats came into
power, they reorganized the Xenia
Home and placed in charge of it
gentleman who had seen no service in
the Civil War or any other war and
had no special claim upon the office,
except his long and faithful service to
the Democratic party. The present
Board of Trustees Of the Home
thought that, other things being equal,
this particular institution should be
under the management of a veteran
of the Civil War, and they chose for
this position a man who wore the blue
in the days that tried mems souls and
who met every requirement of the
law. "It this be treason, make the
most of it." For this act, the pres
ent administration has no apologies
to make to Ex-Governor Cox or the
people of Ohio. There always has
been, | am sorry to say, an element in
this state that has no interest in the
old soldiers and their glorious achieve
ments. This element is small, how
ever, and I am willing that its votes
should automatically" go where they
belong-to Ex-Governor Cox.
About the last persons on earth
who should talk about the spoils sys-
tenn are the present leaders of the
Democratic party The President of
the United States, by the grace OF
the Democratic party, with his sign
manual opened 10000 positions to
Democratic spoilsmen, and filled
every position within his gift on the
basis of partisan consideration.
The administration of my predeces-
CANT and partisan in the history OF
our state. The handspring of every
thing that it thought or meditated OF
did was spoils. It lived and moved
and had its being to satisfy the in
satiable nav Of it's supporters with
partisan plunder. The people of Ohio
understand this and are eagerly
awaiting the opportunity to bury it
again under an avalanche of ballots.
In state and nation the Democratic
party has broken it's pledges and for
gotten it's promises. The Republicans
of Ohio have kept the faith. Factiona
differences and personal quarrels have
been forgotten; confident in the con
sciousness of work well done and
pledges redeemed it presents united
front to it's enemies and challenges
them to battle on the issues of the
campaign state or national or both.
CORN FOR LAYING HENS.
"In Ohio, corn under usual marke-
conditions is one of the most economi
cal feeds for laying hens, and can well
be used to a very large extent in theil
ration. However, corn must be sup
plemented with nitrogenous feed
such as meat scrap or skimmilk, i
good results are to be obtained from
its use," says W. J. Buss, poultr,
husbandman of the Ohio Experimen
Station, in the June Monthly Bulletin
Recent experiments at this station
show that hens fed ration composed
of 87.2 per cent corn and 1873 pc
cent. meat scrap produced egg
cheaper than hens given a create
number of feeds.
Hens given corn, wheat, oats, bran
middlings, oilmeal and meat scrap at,
more feed, but the increase in egs
production was not sufficient to pa,
for the additional feed consumed an
for the higher cost per pound Of thi
variety ration. In one test they pro
duced 8.4 per cent. more eggs, but tn
feed cost per dozen eggs produced wa
27 per cent. more than that of hen
fed only corn and meat scrap.
