9 tela Homemade Low Wagon.. The accompanying illustrations, sup plied by J. L. Newcomer To the Orange Judd Farmer, represents a farmer's wagon, which can be niade at home. The wheels are from a binder truck. In the first picture, a a are beams 12 feet long and 2x15! Inches, bb 4 fee long and 2x6'3 Inches; the axles are 2 feet from each end. The middle crosspieee UNDER PART OR WAGON. d is 2 feet back of the front bolster. The front axle is 4x4 inches and is 24 feet long measured inside the wheels. The height of the frame resting on the "bolsters is 15 inches. The king bolt is 20Vj inches long and goes through the bolsrer and axie at e and is kept in place by means of a key. The short piece of iron h is bolted to the cross piece d and attached to the iron g. The side boards can be taken off at will, which leaves i.he top perfectly fiat. These are 10 feet 7 inches lor.g on h" side and 12 inches high. The end boards are 4 feet 4 inches long with 2 Ifleb slats nailed on to keep ihem up right.

Wintering Plants in Cellar. Plants are placed in the cellar to rest, not to grow. Nothing Is more harmful to them when thus stored away than water, and It should never be given unless to keep the soil from becoming dust dry. In early spring, if the buds on the plants are seen to be starting a little, do not give water, which would only favor their growth, but keep as dry and cool as possible, until Mme to take them out of the cel lar.

Stockman and Farmer. Mistakes in Strawberry Crowing. Not subsoiliug. I'lanting too closely. Growing small berries. Planting too many varieties. Using dirty, second-hand boxes. Not cutting strawberry runners each week. Placing too high an estimate on prob able profits. Not keeping close watch on the leaJ roller insect. Using newly turned sod for strawber ry planting. Allowing the small berries to go to market. Not finely pulverizing the soil before planting. Not studying and watching the need of the market. Not taking two or three good horti cultural journals. Not cultivating at least once per week during drought. Employing pickers who do too much talking while at work. Not tfcing strictly honest In the meas uring and grading of berries. Allowing too many runners to grow when it is intended to grow the fruit. For the Ice Murveat.

The first requisites of a -rood driver are a cool head, a watchful and a ready finger, with a quick understanding of the needs and requirements of his horse, says t.iur Animal Friends.

The Cot of an Kick The cost of an egg In the Eastern States Is estimated at one cent, but this depends on the prices of grain. If meat, milk, cut Isme, chopped clover and cooked potatoes are given, the cost wiii be less; not be-aue the meat can be purchased at less t:ian the grain, but because the feeding of a variety and a balanced ration will induce the hens to lay more eggs. The greater I'm: u um ber of eggs laid the lower the cost pro protiouately, ami it is possible to pro duce eggs at a cost of only haJf a cent each. P. II. Jacobs, in Farm and Fire side. targe Fruit Tree. If the tree agent has a lot of large trees '"that will bear fruit sooner," and he asks only a littie more for them than for nice threeyear trees six or eight feet high, don't buy them. Such trees are slower to begin growth and slower to grow, and rarely prove sat isfactory. Involution of the 1'each. The peach was originally a poisoned almond.

Trans plantation and cultivation have not only removed Its poisonous quaJitles, but turned it Into the delicious fruit we now enjoy. Farm Note. Purchase bran and oil meal to feed with the straw. A good dairy cow Is always a hearty eater and drinker. It is a safe plan to apply all manure on a plowed surface. ' Fences on the farm are like a tax they musrt be kept up, The old-time grasses hold their own against all newcomers. The successful farmer now must be a wide-awake business man.

Kansas and Nebraska are the two States iu which Populism Itas been tried to the greatest extent, and as a result they are the strongest Populist States in the I tiion. The record of the party in Kansas is well understood br readers of the Advocate and News, but the spletid'd record of the Nebraska P'pulisr ndmiuMratS'.n l.ae tot been frequently referred to, Whesi State Trea urer Meerve tok clur-'P, one year ago, he found a def.-ij-.i-ion on the part of his prilv-.or of S-7,'i,r.'i', and the trea-nry ett.pty and warrants passing at alsuir. cents, a u.M-ount of 7 per cent. This was certainly an unfavorable condition to begin on. At the end of the first fiscal year lie had registered $ I. o21, ().".:!, compared with $l,G24,n2o during the responding preceding year of bis predecessor's term. Slr;.-t and absolute economy on his part and on that of his associates in .State offices atl In the Legislature brought about a reduction of $;X2.!.x;7. This is just what any sane busluts man would do in his private affairs, and these Popuiist t.r!i--ers introduced sane methods into pub!;- affairs. State war rants were jiaid promptly and honest ly as fast as money was received and they soon rose In price until they now bring a premium of three-fourths of 1 per cent., where they had previously been discounted at 7 per c-"f. Then, Instead of allowing these warrants to be hawked almut, the treasurer bought all that could be obtained with money from the school fund, thus securing 10 the State the interest on them. His j-ii-,)eees had allowed this school t.e-uey to iie !:i ; inks where a little interest w as .ill to the State.

If these assertion- are true, the govern nent of Pennsylvania Is government at thntw carried on by means of murder. The State of Pennsylvania has al ready acquired an evil fame. It Is s State Iu which criminal corporations have so long perverted government and have so long wielded the powers of ma lignant tyranny that It more nearly re sembles some despotic medieval duclif than a free American commonwealth. The nation will be curiou to note whether Pennsylvania Is going to hanif Its man-slayers, or guarantee protec tion to murder as long as It Is commit ted In the interests of Incorporated wealth. Chicago Journal. New Trust. Several new trusts were reported dur Ing December by the New York Jour nal of Commerce. The or.a i .atloii of the milk trust, known at the Farm and Dairy Product OomiHny, with a capital of J15,0Or),0iO, Is being perfect ed. and It Is said that they will deal In butter as well as milk and seek to con trol the Eastern market. Ten of the largest paper mills are to combine and a capital of $fiO,(XJO,000 Is under contemplation, details as to the valuations they will accept for their respective properties not having yet been settled. The thirteen mwhndeti oil plants of the Atlantic const are in process of uniting, and three of the seven direc tors of the new company will be En glishmen. A machine has been Invent-. ml which extracts more oil at a less cost, and this Invention Is controlled by the new company, which will be known as the American Fisheries Company. The annual product of Uic neuhaden rompin! a mounts to about $S,OTO,non. It Is said that the new company will be In a better position to prevent the passage of legislation and the enforce ment of laws for the protection of the f-mall fish which are used as an edible fish. The sewer-pipe manufacturers have virtually reached an agreement, and a pool Is to I formed with a central sell ing atrency. The American Cotton Growers' Pro tective Association has under consid eration a plan for the reduction of cot ton acreage. President Lane, who fa vors it. declared: "Cotton to-day is sell 'tig at !

AYliere Io the People Come Iu? The masquerading of golubug con ferences and manipulating bankers, in all their learned chatter about sound currency, scientific banking, national honor, money goxl in every part of the world, and the like, leaves out of con sideration the great mass of the Amer ican people. The maskers want the government to issue gold bonds, upon wblch gold Inter.-st must be paid semi annually to buy up and retire Sherman notci), greenbacks, silver certificates anil silver dollars, without even at tempting !o prove that the bank money they pro;,,se to Issue In the place of the government money to be retired would be better money than the money which Is now issued directly by the United States. The government pays no interest on the money which these manipulators propose to retire, but would be co!i:js-l!.-.l to pay a very large interest on this bank money. The kind nf bank money which they propose to substitute for governtii'nt money they do not accurately describe. Most of thetii want the government to issue the money the same as ft now does, and give It to the banks, and allow the batiks to loan it to the public, and at the same time pay the banks interest on the gold bonds which are issued to buy up the govern tieut money. If Ibere is anything In this buggery muggery g.a me but donations to the banks, not only of cash direct, but of a grant of power to expand and contract the cur rency lu aid of Wall street sjecuia tlons, the people ought fo I. now ft. We have followed the statements of i, age, Faireb'lds. Edmunds.

If tie-re is anything else In the drivel ing hearings before the committee on banking and currency than a thin veneertng of bankers' gteed, we would like to know it. Silver Knight-Watchman. VcKlnlfT's liimetallism. Sena'or Wolcott thinks the President is a bimetallist, and sometimes the President thinks so, too. P.ut, evident ly, Uv,h (Jf these distinguished states men are mistaken. In appointing Ceorge K. Kolwrts di rector of the mint to nicctcd It. E. Pres ton, McKiuh y proves that he is a gold iiiouomotallist of the most pronounced character, ft was a difficult task to find a more bitter foe to silver thai Pt-ston, but Roberts was discovered, and he hates sliver with a tatred wh'ch Is as fire to water when compared to I'-eston's rancor. Iu giving the reasons why Itoberts was appointed, a gold advocating editor says: "Ills answer to Coin and several of the smaller essays were called to the attention of the President, who read them with Intense luterettt during the campaign. Recently vvheu he decided to apK!nt a succes-ior to IMrector Pres ton, he recalled the work done by Rob erts and had copies of trie book fur nished him anew." Roberts is "-firmly committed to the gold standard," says the authority above quoted, "and his books and es says show him to 1 In thorough accord with the President on this question." As the newly-appointed director of the mint is a professional writer, the coun try may expect an enia-rge-l liwrory output from the mint. Senator Wolcott ought fo go Into ct ceutlve seslon and reco.tslder his tes timonial as to the bimetallism of Ihe President. Chicago Dispatch. The Kiaht Will Triumph. Oov. John It. Rogers says In the Arena: Wise and determined Hction will prevent all appeal to arms; while the cry of submission to English mon ey lord, heard from our modern torles, If acquiesced In. will surely bring a bloody struggle whenever the people fully comiweheiwl the fact that In this way freedom and Its opportunities have been bartered away. The conflict betwevn manhood and mammon, which, although as old as history, took on a more pronounced phase In 1873, has now In Its present form been before the people of this country for near a quarter of a cen tury. The time of decisive action ap proaches, and everybody knows It Klther the people are to regain the old freedom of opportunity enjoyed In the emrUsr years of the republic, or tbsy are to sink lower and lower In the so cial scale. The struggle Is of moral rife-tit and moral worth against the power of money. It has been aptly de scribed as the fight of the Almighty dollar against Almighty God. This Is the truth. Cowards and flme-serven will deny It, but they cannot prevent It. Nothing can prevent It. And the ultimate outcome Is not doubtful. Tht right will triumph. Wlijr Not? If the dealers in money are best fit ted to control the laws with regard to our money system, why not carry the principle still further? For example, let the Ini'totters fix the duty on lm isirts; let the brewers and distillers fix the internal revenue taxes; let the great railroad corporations dictate the laws providing for the condemnation of pri vate land for the right of way; let the saloonkeepers make the regulations for selling liquor on Sunday in cities, and let the popeo system of the cities be turned over to the sole conirol of those classes whose misfortune it Is to In- in the conflict with the laws. We might go still further and let every offender of the law lie judged, not, by; a magis trate, but by the shyster lawyer to whom he may be able to pay a trifling fee. All lliese Innovations would be In strict accordance with the policy of allowing th bankers to dictate our laws relating to the money system of the country. May Hreed Good Rrsnlt-i. The results which the senatorial elec tion In Ohio has thus far had, Inspire tiie ls-lief in certain minds that popu lar election of members of the upper house of Congress will be hastened thereby. Our own opinion Is quite tht contrary. The debauchery and corrup tion Inseparable from the present sys tem of choosing United States Senators merely recommend It to the exploiter! of the eople. The men who run our political machines know that as long as the present senatorial election sys tem prevails they can hope to retain control of the Senate. Allow the peo ple to elect the Senators and there Is a possibility that men of the Hanna type may ie defeated. Consequently, th financiers a 'id the corporations will In sist upon t'.e maintenance of things as they are.

As msthlng but a denial could be wrung from him, another vagrant was arrest ed snd subjected to the same treat ment, with the same result. It was eventually discovered that a small boy, hidden Is-hlnd the church tower, had been the culprit.
