To Chairmen County Central Commit tees: "Wiiekeas. At the republican state con vention held at Lincoln October 5, 1987, the following resolution was adopted: Jlesolced, That the state central com mittee be instructed to embrace in its call tor the next state convention the submis sion of the prohibition question to the re publican voters at the republican pri manes, Therefore, in accordance with the Above resolution, the several county cen tral committees are hereby instructed to include in their call for their next county convention the submission of the prohi bition question to the kepublicax voters at the republican primaries. Geo. D. Meiklejoixx, Chairman. YVAir. M. Seeley, Secretary. The convention in Chicago is a strik ingly different affair from that one held in St. Louis. The democratic gathering wa hardly more than a ratification meet ing; the candidates were ready-made.and so was the platform; the delegates had no field for deliberation or independent action. Whatever the outcome of the republican convention, it will be the re sult of the carefully considered and de liberate judgment of over 800 representa tive memlers of the party. There is no dictator, no prearranged program. The reports from Chicago continue to show that the situation is indeterminate. The delegates clearly understood the grayity of the work in hand, and there is evciy reason to believe that the best man will b i chosen. I)EJIOCI2ATS ARE INCONSIS TENT. Four years ago they prauced up and down tha country prophesying that a continuation of those horrible "war taxes' would impoverish the people and trans form mercliantile industries into asylums for the poor. Let us manage the affairs of government, said these deciples of free trade, and civil service reform for democrats only, and at one fell stroke we will wipe from the face of the statute books every vestige of a high protective tariff which they pictured as more dam aging than pestilence, famine or war. A sufficient number of people who were too old to remember distinctly the past re cord of this party, or too young to know from observation that it never made promises with a view of keeping them, placed. them in power. They have now been four years at the head of the government and for a much longer time have they Wen in the major ity in the lower bouse and during all this time tariff laws continued in force and mills and factories continued to ran. But now on the eve of a presidential a presic election the democrats come up smiling with a "Mills Bill" which they offer to the American people as a teat of their sincerity in abolishing those abominable tariff laws. Now what does this Mills bill propose to do. Will it reduce the tariff on im orts regardless of the section of the country that may be affected thereby? Oh yes, for whatever else may be said of democrats their patriotism and their love of the country is of that pure and undc- filed sort which know no North, no South, but one united people. Now that sounds well enough but its all in your mind; there's precious little of it in the bill. As a matter of fact this measure knocks the tariff off of wool but leaves rice un disturbed. Wool is clipped in republi can states. Hice is grown in Soutli Car- olin. South Carolina is u democratic state you know. According to this bill the tanner who wishes hoop iron for his wagon bed, must pay a duty of 1 cents per pound but the southern planter who desires some of the same kind of iron to tie cotton bales can "o to the custom house and secure all the iron he wishes for this purpose free of duty. Democrats are inconsistent. That is to say they are very anxious to redeem their pledges by taking the tariff off of articles pioduced in northern states bur. when it comes to rice, sugar, cotton tie iron etc., then that .is a horse of a differeut color. $500 Reward.

J. has considerably changed our views, and especially our prejudices in regard to what are general ly known as "Standard Patent Medicines. Of course we are getting to that age in life when we are forced to conclude life itself is a humbug, and naturally distrust anything that has not withstood long and tried experiences. Being a physician had the cu-iosity in know how such sale of two medical preparations pould be sustained for so many years. The perfect svstem upon which the business 1 Wf M. is conducted, and the pharmaceutical ar rangements for the manufacture of the two receipes with which we are made acquainted, are sufficiently convincing to us that the August Flower, for Dyspep sia and Liver Complaints, and Boschee's German Syrup, for Throat, aad f.un Troubles, were for the complaints they are recommended, most excellent reme dies, and only regret that in much of our practice, medical ethics prevent us from prescribing them without making the formulas public. U'kec we were shown the great quautity of voluntary letters having been forwarded Dr. Green, from all parts of the couutry, and from ill classes of people, lawyers, ministers and doctors, givicg; 3. description of their ailments, testimonials of their cures etc., I feel like endorsing Dr. Green's sugges tion that the Government accept such valuable formula, $rt license them for general use by giving protection to Ijic Inventor same 83 patents generally. Copied from N. V. Druggists' Circular of Oct., 1886. Scarlet fever Is at its minimum from Jan uary to Alay, and at its maximum in Octo ber and .November. Diphtheria is more evenly distributed through the year, and is most dangerous a iittla later than scarlet fever. Measles and chopping cough seem to be somewhat aggravated by asld ireather. but are most fatal in May and J una iiot weather is averse to smallpox and favorable to disorders of the bowels, particularly in children. READ THE NEXT COLUMN ARTICLE. An Explanation, What is this "nervous trouble" with which so many seem now to be afflicted ? If you will remember a few years ago the word Malaria was comparatively un known, today it is as common as any word in the English language, yet this word covers only the meaning of another word used by our forefathers in timts past. So it is used with nervous diseases, as they and Malaria are intended to cover what our grandfathers called Biliousness, and all are caused by troubles that arise from a diseased condition of the Liver which in performing its functions finding it cannot dispose of the bile through the ordinary channel is compelled to pnss it off through the system causing nervous troubles, Malaria, Bilious Fever, etc. You who are suffering can well appreci ate a cure. We recommend Green's Au gust Flower. Its cures are marvelous. &2 MODES . OF APPLYING MANURE. Different Opinion Espreaeed on ft- Sub ject or General latereac T. i- maHu (n lav dnvn treneral rules In retrard to the application of manures that will bo. wise in all cases. Opinions differ somewhat as to tne economy of spreading: farm yard manure upon tue suriaces oi neiue or mu u late autumn or early winter. Circum stances alter cases here as elsewhere. It seems, however, reasonable to maintain that winter top dressing should bo re stricted to level fields; for both rain and snow must sweep manure from frozen hillsides before its constituents have haa anv fair chance to soak into the ground. There are advocates both at home and abroad of the practice of carting out fresh manure from the barn yard as fast as it . . . . . . ii . ii.. Is mado and spreading it uirecuy on nm filds. The chief cain in such practice Is doubtless the saving of labor. The spreading or suon manure upon grass In the spring, or in the autumn even, Is no doubt commendable in many situa tions as a means of maintaining the same. A chief objection to the system or sur- ifH narticularlv a tx. j oj'i v.v -M-f- tr g to light leaching soils. Is that the non- soluble portions or tne manure, as mey lie on the ground, are liable to dry out to a peat like substance that is not specially useful to tne growing crop. lTrurnvrr mnnura mar be auDlied. it Is of Importance to secure Its equable distri- button in iub sou. in a t,uu,i"" wjt may be said that horse droppings an4 manure from sheep pons should bo applied by preference to cold clayey loams, or to moist soils rich in bumus. These hot manures tend to warm and enliven the land- On the other hand, the slowly fermenting cow manure Is preferred for warm light soils. On light sandy soils It will be found a good plan when using horse manure to mix it with some slow sort, as cow or swine manure. Comb Iloney In Small Packages. In Gleanings in Bee Culture is described the plan of a Michigan apiarian by which he gets two small packages of comb honey that have proven very popular In his Pap ket. A seven-eighths board is selected just long enough to slip inside of a Langstroth frame. Then with a jaek plane, set coarse, ho scoops off the shavings. The shavings of course roll up, but ho tumbles them into a pail of water, and when they get well soaked, thev are straightened out. piled up and dried. This gives thin strips of veneer, and cheaper than you ean im ggjr;e. He then lixes a board as in tha second eugTaving. The Langstroth frame is slipped over this ooai'd- Theso little blocks are made by gluing a three-eighths board on top of a seven eighths board, as you see. Now, with a circular saw, cut grooves clear through the thin board until the saw strikes the thick one. These grooves aro of such a width that three of tho aforo mentioned strips of veneer will drop Into each groove, the strips running lengthwise of tho frame. When this is done, three short pieces of veneer are dropped into the grooves crosswise. But to make these bits of wood stay in place when the frame is pulled up. a" little glue is put into each corner with a camel's hair brush. You want to bp careful, so the PLAN FOR MAKING SMAIX SECTIONS. glue will ijot run in too far, and stick to the form!' Before ' vou piit jn tho glue, however, drop some little squares of fpu'iv dation into each little section. The glup should just catch each corner of the foun dation. When the whole thing is dry. lift it off and hang It in the hive. Wueu the little sections are full and sealed over, take frame and all to the grocer; slip off the outside, and show him that ho can separate the squares into long strips. With a sharp knife he can now cut them up into little cakes as wanted. If a cus t6mer'''ants fojir, tlx or eight, let him have them al fn a 'slice', tg "sag handling BP many loose pieces. Of Interest to lle Keepers. The query recently sent out to authori ties on bee culture by "Gleaning in Bee Culture "Do you prefer tho entrance at the end f,l tha framo? Why?" elicited quite a nunil iber pi ' replies Jncludpg plal J'PS and "no, ana several answers to the effect that it piakes no difference. In a word, a consideration of all the rcplj?3 justifies the conclusion that it does not make any difference about the amount of honey stored, whether the bees go into the WS"5 sidewise or endwise. But so far as aiding ins tecs jn housecleaniiig, expelling intruders, etc., Is'concerned, the endwise door appears to offer tho best facilities. It also seems as if an cntranco tuj fu!J wjdth of the hive, with the combs running endwise, must offer the bees, htj; ter facilities for perfect ventilation.' Facts Worth Knowing-. - A good f&rcp pump, with which the orchardist may apply Insecticide parly in the season and thus prevent loss from in sects, is one of the requisites of tho re munerative fruit farm.

This is fore-shadowed by the number of storms we haye already had the most destructive one so far this year having occurred at Mt.
