aUtatlona Coder Democracy — How
Maw Fork Banks Have Suffered.
We believe jthat the threat which hae
been used by certain politicians and
tree-trade papers to create a financial
panic, for the*purposo of defeating the
^nominatloii 8f Mr. McKinley, has been
■ taken With too much uneasiness. No
0oubt the threat was made In the heat
Of anger and disappointment. But
when Its effect Is analyzed It appears
ridiculous.
■'In the first place it must be remem
bered that all this talk against Mr.
McKinley originates, and exists, only
In. tlm columns of a few free-trade
newiMpers and in the minds of a hand.
- j ful of disgruntled republicans. The
' latter will recover, so we need not wor
" ry further about them. As to the free
trade papers, it is well known that they
are simply trying to divert attention 1
from the ignominious muddle that ex
ists In their own party. Therein they
~ < hove been successful. It is only nec
essary to turn back to the files of these
very papers of 1892 to refresh our mem
£ ories upon all the wonderful good
things, they promised the people in the
event of. the election of a complete
Democratic administration.
Then their fight was for the repeal
of the McKinley tariff, concerning
which they printed falsehood after
falsehood. They promised cheaper
goads, more work, higher wages and
lospr taxes. These alluring baits car
ried the people. The authority asked
for*was given to the Democratic party.
The McKinley tariff was repealed and
the Wilson monstrosity has reigned in
lt^ stead. But with what results? It
Is true that the prices of farm products
haVe been cheapened, but there has
been less work for the people, lower
wtfges and higher taxes. The national
revenue has been in Sore straits as
well as the revenue of the individual.
T£e very character of the tariff bill
passed by the Democrats differed so
wUely from the kind of measure that
had been promised that it was stigma
tised ap “party perfidy and party dis
honor” by tho Democratic president
and as a "rag-bag production” by the
Democratic senator, Mr. Hill, of New
York state. The Democratic free-trade
press dare not face a discussion of the
tariff question, so It Is now occupied
In reviling the most prominent candi
date for the Republican presidential
nomination because It knows that hlB
election will eradicate every tree-trade
Idea from the country during the pres
ent generation.
The Democratic threat to create a
financial panic Is a deliberate act of
cowardice. That It was ever seriously
Sustained by one solitary bank presi
dent, be be Republican or Democrat,
we can hardly credit. Who would be
the greatest sufferers by a financial
ppnlc? Tne bankers themselves. Bank
presidettfb are merely salaried officers
appointed to manage a bank’s finances,
these finances consist of the money of
the stockholders and depositors. Ah at
tempt to create a panic would be a de
liberate mismanagement of the trust
jrpposcil in a president and it would
*ery speedily result In hts dismissal.
Mo barfk president would ever be per
jnltted? <»y a majority of his board of
directors, to play ducks and drakes
ii with" «elr money or with that of the
depositors. It would be a criminal act,
iperKlng the severest punishment, and
any Democratic paper that lends Itself
thereto Is particeps criminis, and mor
ally, if n9t legally, guilty
sr
u mu presidents, Dank directors
and .bank stockholders will carefully
consider- the condition of their hanks
♦when the McKinley tariff was In force,
and compare It with their business to
day. we have no hesitation in saying
^tfeat the unanimous verdict will be that
a ^restoration of the McKinley era of
prosperity is very much to be desired.
The financial situation calls upon
bankers to support the nomination of
.MrJMoKlnley, not to allow spleen and
•Nut .Judgment to control their more
allure business Judgment. Bankers
have large sums of money to lend, not
to |eep,(die, and they know that they
now, hg^e a plethora of idle money for
which ftere is no demand. In 1892,
on September 30, the national banks of
the United States had <2.163,498,829 of
money out on loan and discount that
was earning Interest. This year, on
' Feflruary 28, their loans and discounts
amounted only to <1,951,344,782, or
<200,000,000 less than In the McKinley
tariff year, The ,earnlngs and profits
of the national banks hanuot be as sat
isfactory as they were in l892,'- in&
iey are even less satisfactory tbslfty
their were last -Febn^ry. Why#
so manufacturers are borrowers,
and more of our industries are idle ow
ing to the Democratic tariff.
. In 1892, on September 30, before the
elects on of a complete Democratic ad
mbitftratioh, the amount of money cat
deposit In the national-banka of the
United States was <2,022,500,000. This
year,' on February 28, It was only
<1,«48,092,869, or <375,000,000 less than
In the McKinley tariff year. With so
much less money at their disposal the
national banks have not the opportun
r*^!P\r
profitable business as tiaey possessed In
1892. Then money was in demand.
Why? Because our Industries were in
active operation on account of the Mc
Kinley tariff. During the first four
months of 1892 the volume of business
transacted throughout the United
States, as represented by bank clear
ings, amounted to $20,933,879,840. Dur
ing the first four months of the pres
ent year it aggregated only $17,069,514,
662, a loss of $3,874,663,178 of business
in only one-third of the year. This is
a most serious matter. And why does
this condition exist? Because of the
free-trade tariff, which has lessened
our industrial production, has de
creased the earnings of our people and,
consequently, has diminished our
power of consumption.
In 1892, on March 1, the net earn
ings of all the national banks In the
United States amounted to 134,363,000.
On September 1 of 1895 the half year’s
earnings had been only $23,498,671, al
most $11,000,000 less than in 1892. Does
this look as if McKlnleylsm had been
a bad thing for the bankers? In 1892
the ratio of earnings to capital and
surplus were 3.78 per cent. Last year
it was only 2.57 per cent, a drop of
1.21 per cent under Wllsdnlsm. Now
let us put these figures briefly together
for the sober reflection of those who
were reported as threatening to create
a financial panic. Let them decide
whether McKlnleylsm was such a bad
thing for the stockholders whose money
they use and care for, and whose serv
ants they are:

It seems idle to give a moment’s con
sideration to the idea that any reputa
ble financiers contemplate the creation
Of a financial panic for the purpose of
"downing” Mr. McKinley when they,
know that their best business interests
desire, and need, bis election'and a res
toration of McKlnleylsm.
In the foregoing review we have
made no reference to the amount of
losses of national banks through the
unprecedented number of large manu
facturing failures that have lately oc
curred because of the operation of the
Democratic tariff. It is an open secret
that the banks of New York, during
the last three years,have written off to
profit and loss no less a sum than
$2,000,000 of loans to concerns that
have failed, and from which they never
expect to realize one solitary cent.
More McKlnleylsm 1b needed by the
banks of the country, not less.
Mr. J. Edward Simmons, president of
the Fourth National bank of New
York, one of the strongest Democrats
in the Empire City, has stated the case
concisely in the Herald, May 30:
“Panic? We have been so deep in
a hole for three years that things can’t
] get any lower.’*
The "panic’’ scare has simply been
a big Democratic bluff to defeat the
nomination of the strongest protection
candidate for the presidency, and the
bluff has failed. •&, ■<,

T this season of the
year cut worms do
more or less dam
age to nearly all
crops, especially to
tomatoes, cabbages
and corn. When
ever sod or grassy
land is left until
spring before being
plowed, any crop
which may be
piamea on eucn tana vui m
damaged by cut worms. The reason
of this Is that the worms are nearly
full grown in the spring, yet they
need one good meal before forming
Into pupae, a short time after which
they come forth as night flying moths.
The life history of the cut worms is
about this: The moths lay their eggs
in grass throughout the summer
months, and after a few days these
eggs hatch into small worms which
feed upon the grass. The worms cast
off their skin from time to time to ac
commodate their increase in Size, and
during the cooler weather of winter
go deeper in the ground, being dormant
for a time if the weather is very cold.
Upon the approach of spring, the
worms come forth for a finishing touch
of growth and soon form pupae in the
ground Just below the surface. Some
time after this the moths are produced,
and, after mating,' the females lay the
eggs for another brood. With most
species there is thus but one brood a
year. Most farmers are beginning to
realize the many advantages of fall
plowing, and where sod land especial
ly is plowed in the fall it will greatly
lessen the number of cut worms and
other insects on such land the follow
ing spring. A good remedy for killing
out the cut worms in the garden is to
make up a mixture consisting of a
quantity of bran or corn meal moist
ened with water, to which is added a
little Paris green and a little molasses
or sugar, to give a sweetish taste. It
is the Paris green that kills the worms,
and this should be very thoroughly
mixed with the bran, so as to have a
uniform mixture. A spoonful of this
mixture should be placed near the
plants Just before night on the day the
plants are set out. The cut worms
work at night and will be killed by
eating of the poisoned mixture. It is
mush better, however, to place the
mixture about in various part of a field
a few days before planting, as it will
then kill off the worms before any
damage is done. H. E. Weed,
Entomologist Mississippi Experiment
Station, Agricultural College, Miss.
Origin of tha Cabbage.
Cabbage (Brasslca oleracea) is one of
the vegetables brought into use at an
early day, and although not so indis
pensable as the potato, is nevertheless
an esculent highly esteemed and has
assumed an Importance that gives it a
prominent position, hot only in the’
horticultural catalogue, but also in es
timating the productions of our coun
try. I have no statistics by which to
estimate its value In this country, but
when we learn that in London about
one hundred million heads are annual
ly sold, which, at five cents a head,
would amount to $5,000,000 we may be
prepared to estimate the amount
raised in Illinois at a sum worthy of
being taking into consideration in es
timating the value of our productions.
Just when and where it was first
brought into use it is not possible to
state now with certainty. A compara
tively recent article in Hardwicke’s
Science Gossip says that the plant from
which the varieties in use in England
originated is to be found along the
southeast seacoast of England. But it
Is certain that some of the varieties
were early In use on the western side
of the continent; also that kales or
coleworts of some kind were long in
use in Greece and Rome, as they are
frequently mentioned by Greek and
Roman writers and even directions
given for their cultivation. It is also
certain that various species of Bras
slca are found lh different parts of
the world.—Cyrus Thomas.
Australian Balt Basil. .
In view of the great interest now be
ing taken In Australian salt bush
(Atriplex semlbaccatum), the new-for
age plant for alkali soils, Director Devol
of the Experiment Station at Tucson,
Arizona, sends the following brief
method of growing it:
The seeds are flat, somewhat heart
shaped, about 1-10 inch long and of a
brownish or reddish green color. If cov
ered in wet soil when fresh they are apt
to rot, but sown before a raln'and light
ly covered with soil, or preferably cov
ered with grass or weeds and kept
moderately moist they will germinate
readily. They may be started in
boxes or hotbeds and transplanted
to the field; but plants grown in this way
do not resist drought so well-as those
planted where they are to remain.
While young the plants require water
ing two or three times, but when well
established they will resist quite severe
droughts. Although a perennial plant
it grows so rapidly that one cutting may
be obtained the first season, and two the
following season. It will grow in soil
having more alkali than any other plant
valuable for forage, and unlike most
plants growing upon such soil it has a
prostrate habit, growing to a height of
but 6 to 12 inches and spreading over
several square feet of ground. Single
plants have been known to reach a
spread of 16 feet, this, too, upon very
alkaline soil. It is estimated that from
3 to 6 tons per acre of dried hay may
be produced. Sheep and hogs relish It
green and when mixed with about 1-3
its weight of other hay horses and cat
tle eat it dried.
••mas ^ Varieties of 8travh«rrl«s.
It Is almost impossible to advise the
beginner what variety to plant, a
variety which is very productive In
one locality may prove the reverse in
another, sometimes even in another
field, soil, exposure and location being
different No variety will do equally
well on all soils. Reports in regard to
varieties are very conflicting in differ
ent localities. While one grower is
satisfied and recommends a variety, an
other is disgusted and is going to dis
card it In general, we may say that
those sorts which are successfully cul
tivated over a large territory are most
reliable; but he who goes a long ways
from home to get advice in regard to
varieties and treatment makes a seri
ous mistake. These problems are
purely local. The purpose for which
we plant should be considered, 1. e.,
whether for home use or for market.
For home use we may consider the
characters of a variety in this manner;
1, quality, 2, yield, 3, hardiness. For
market, this order should he reversed,
thus: 1, hardiness, 2, yield, 3, quality.
For market we want a firm berry of
good size and color. Of the varieties
grown on the Experimental Farm at
Madison last summer, Warfield led
them all In productiveness, yielding a
third more than any other variety.
Then came Haverland, Cloud, Eureka,
Lady Rusk, Van Deman, Wilson aag
Bubach. This was the second crop
taken from these vines.—A. M. Ten

i/nmoo uof LiKn rial L»nu.
It Is a plain Inhabiting Insect, but It
may inhabit very limited, flat areas, in
terspersed among more broken and ele
vated areas. As illustrating this habit in
Ohio, it may be stated that in 1894, it
was found quite abundant in Cham
paign, Logan and Hardin counties, with
its greatest abundance in the latter and
Wyandot county to the northeast, the
two latter being of a more level topo
graphy than the two former. This is
fully illustrated by maps in Bulletin 69,
of the Ohio Exp. Station. In 1895, the
area of greatest abundance included
only Wyandot and a portion of Hardin
counties, Champaign suffering little,
while to the south in Green and Clark
counties, where, in 1894, it had been
found sparingly, it did not occur in
abundance at all, thus showing that it
had drifted to the lower and flatter
lands to the east, except in Wyandot
and a portion of Hardin, where these
conditions already obtained, and over
run a wide range of practically flat
country having a clay soil. A portion
of the state laying to the west and north -
west of Lake Erie, being the ancient
bed of the preglacial lake, and the soil
sandy Instead of clayey, was little if at
all infested, whereas, the flat clay lands
to the south and west were, in some
localities literally overrun with these
insects.—Ohio Bulletin.
Why Bern Work In the Dark.
Bees go out all day gathering honey
and work at night in the hive, building
their combs as perfectly as if an elec
tric light were there all the time. Why
do they prefer to work in the dark? is
often asked. Every one knows that
honey is a liquid with no solid sugar
in it. After standing, it gradually as
sumes a crystalline appearance, or
granulates, and ultimately becomes a
solid mass. Honey has been experi
mentally enclosed in well corked flasks,
some of which were kept in perfect
darkness, while' the others were ex
posed to the light. The result was that
the portion exposed to the light soon
crystallzed while that kept in,the dark
remained unchanged. Here we see
why the bees are so careful to obscure
the glass windows which are placed in
hives. The existence of the young de
pends on the liquidity of the saccharine
food presented to them, and if the light
were allowed access to this, it would,
in all probability, prove fatal to the
inmates of the hive.—Ex.
The Strawberry Bed.
The new strawberry plant should not
be allowed to bear fruit the first sea
son. Pick off all fruit stems as soon
as they appear. Three methods of train
ing the strawberry are in use. The hill
system, where all runners are removed.
The narrow row, where only part of new
runners are allowed to form plants; and
the full matted row, where plants are
allowed to fill all the space, excepting a
narrow path between rows. All have
advocates and all have special merits,
depending on soil, climate, variety and
grower. The full matted row is most
used, being easiest to manage. Guard
against too many plants in small space.
They consume moisture, suffer from
drouth and produce small berries. Each
plant should hare from four to six in
ches square space in which to grow and
mature its fruits.—M. A. Thayer.
Extent of Tree Roots.—It is common
ly Bald that the roots of trees extend
each way as far as their branches. But
this is a very uncertain and unreliable
rule. There are trees like the chestnut
and pines, which grow in
sandy soil, which send their roots
far down into the subsoil, and have so
few roots near the surface that the plow
can be run nearly up to them. The elm,
which grows best on low, wet land, has
most of its roots near the surface. But
it can send roots down to a depth of a
three-foot tile drain, as we once learned
to our cost, a large elm near the upper
end of a newly-laid tile drain com
pletely filling it after two or three
years, so that the tile had all to be
taken up. The tree was cut down and
the new tile laid, with the result that
the drain suffered no further obstruc
tion.—Ex.
Nitrogenous Fertilisers.—When a
soil is rich in humus it is seldom neces
sary to make any further application
of nitrogenous fertilisers, and as all
nitrogenous fertilizers are very quickly
soluble, and are soon lost to the soil
by both leaching and volatilizing, they
should never be used until the crop
has made a considerable growth.

THE MIGHT OP COOKS.
They Blmke philosophers. Philanthropists,
Poets, War and Peace.
“The scriptures say we must all be
born again,” observed the philosopher
as he ladled out his table d’hote soup,
relates the New York Herald.
“That’s right,” I replied, “but where
did you find it?”
“I take it on hearsay evidence. But
what I want to say is that if I am to
be born again and have anything more
to do with It than I had the last time
1 would be born a cook.”
“A cook!” I looked into the fathom
less eyes of one reputed the best writer
in New York.
“Yes, sir, a cook. I have lived near
ly sixty years, traveled much—studied
more—produced something. I’ve seen
men and women struggling among
themselves for existence—for a little
thing we call reputation—and for
money. They make a few friends by
the wayside, do a little dab of good
here and there, die and are forgotten.
Upon the hypothesis that we are all
placed on earth for a purpose and that
purpose is the happiness and better
ment of our fellow creatures, I ask
myself how best can a man live and
labor to accomplish the chief end of
existence? Ib it by robbing tens of
thousands and distributing alms, to the
few? Is it by healing the sick and
feeding the poor? Is it by writing
enchanting verses or by fulminating
philosophical prose?
mj ueur Doy, i nave conciuaea mai
a cook has a greater Influence on man
kind for good or evil than the greatest
of the so-called learned professors. The
cook makes and unmakes great men,
as she or he happens to be good or
bad. I am simply the product of the
cook. Whatever I have produced the
cook Is largely responsible for. Bad
cookery has made great poets as well
as bad husbands and murders—
through indigestion. Byron, Shelley,
Keats, Poe—indigestion. Caesar, Han
nibal, Napoleon—all the bloody con
querors of earth—indigestion. The
physical system—the stomach—that
boiler and engine room that furnishes
the motive power for the mechanism
of the brain, has for its fireman and
engineer the cook. Cooks murder more
persons every year than ever fell In a
single battle; maim more in the same
time than were ever wounded in the
greatest war. Cooks make war pos
sible.
“But, on the other hand, cooks have
wrought both physical beauty and
mental greatness. They have subtly
inspired strength of character and
goodness of heart. If they have cre
ated the cynic and the miser they must
be credited with the philosopher and
the philanthropist. If they are direct
ly responsible for bloody wars they
have also inclined men’s hearts to
peace and good will. Even their er
rors, as I have said, have made men
great, especially In poetry and war.
“The cook may die to us unknown,
but the product of his art lies in us
and our work and in our blood and
bone and brain from generation to
generation!”
EIGHTY-FOUR YEARS.
Old Clock WIT h Can Hold Ita Own
with a !ti d <rn Timepiece.
J. C. McCoy of St. Louis is in posses
sion of a remarkable clock that has an
interesting history, says the Boston
Advertiser. It was made in 1816. The
aged horologe was originally the time
piece of the old Territorial bank of
St. Louis, which was chartered in 1815
and was the first bank west of the Mis
sissippi river. At the close of that in
stitution the clock passed into the
possession of the Bank of Missouri
in 1818. When that establishment col
lapsed in 1822 the clock became the
property of the bank’s president, Col.
T. F. Riddick. After his death in 1831
it served as a timepiece for his son-in
law, the late C. T. Billon. From him
it went to his brother, F. L. Billon. It
was kept by him over thirty years, and
his death, some months ago, led up to
a condition which has forced the family
to think of selling it. During the long
period which the venerable clock has
spent in Missouri It has been kept con
stantly running, with little if any re
pairs, except an occasional cleaning,
and records time with excellent ac
curacy. It is what was originally
known as a "Willard timepiece,” being
named after the patentee and manu
facturer of that style of clocks in Con
necticut. The clock Is made in the
fashion of colonial timepieces, the pen
dulum swinging In a square box which
is suspended from the dial. That por
tion of the clock which protects the
shaft and pendulum bears painted
scenes, one of which is a mediaeval,
castle.
A Singular Accident.
While Frank Faber was making
some repairs under a stone crusher at
Devil’s Lake, Wis., a screw caught his
clothes and began to draw him upward.
He grabbed hold of a timber and held
on while the screw continued to wind
and did not let go until every stitch
of clothing except his boots was re
moved from his body. He was only
slightly bruised.

Paper telegraph poles are the latest
development. These poles are made of
;paper pulp, in which borax, tallow,
etc., are mixed in small quantities.
The paper poles are said to be lighter
and stronger than those of wood, and
to be unaffected by sun, rain, damp
ness or any of the other causes which
shorten the life of a wooden pole.'

little sugar, and no salt. Among the
flavors to be combined with water are
lime and lemon juice, the juice of the
grape fruit, and phosphates of orange
and cherry. Cold tea and coffee with
a slice of lemon and no sugar are also
beverages that will satisfy thirst. Both
of the iatter should be poured from the
pot as soon as brewed.
Somehow no one ever seems to regard a
little man's troubles seriously.

KENNEDY’S
MEDICAL DISCOVERY.
DONALD KENNEDY, OF ROXBURY, MASS.,
Has discovered in one of our common
pasture' weeds a remedy that cures every
kind of Humor, from the worst Scrofula
down to a common Pimple.
He has tried it in over eleven hundred
cases, and never failed except in two cases
(both thunder humor). He has now in his
possession over two hundred certificates
of its value, all within twenty miles of
Boston. Send postal card for book.
A benefit is always experienced from
the first bottle, and a perfect cure is war
ranted when the right quantity is taken.
When the lungs are affected it causes
shooting pains, like needles passing
through them; the same with the Liver
or Bowels. This is caused by the ducts
being stopped, and always disappears in a
week after taking it. Read the label.
If the stomach is foul or bilious it will
cause squeamish feelings at first.
No change of diet ever necessary. Eat
the best you ca.i get, and enough of it
Dose, one tablespoonfui in water at bed
time. Sold by all Druggists.
Sparkling with life—
rich with delicious flavor,
HIRES Rootbeer stands
first as nature’s purest and
most refreshing drink,
Best by any test.
