It is good any time af teethe old leaves stop growing, and until new leaves start in the spring. As at cannot easily be dug when the ground is frozen, enough for winter use may be gathered now, and kept covered with soil where it will not freeze. The more freshly it is grated the better, or at least stronger, it is, but any one who has grated it can well believe it may be too strong. Horse-radish is an excellent appetizer, and it is claimed by some that it has curative properties for diseases of throat and lungs. Farm Notes.

The poor farrjer cannot afford to keep poor hogs. Clover straw can always be used to a good advantage for bedding. Keep the horses under good shelter when the weather is cold and stormy. Cleanliness in the yards and stable will add much to the health of the stock. The era of nut cultivation in this country is just dawning," says Chief Van Deman, of the pomological division in the department of Agriculture.

"Before long, however, the growing of nuts for market will become an enormous industry in the United States, where now the product depended upon for consumption iV either gathered from wild trees or imported from abroad. Incidentally to tha clearing of the land for settlement nut-bearing trees are being largely wiped out, and the wild crop is necessarily diminishing in proportion from year to year. This is especially true of the pecan, which the pickers are fond of collecting by cutting down the treea-a proceeding that naturally lessen3 the production of subsequent seasons. 'It is only within the last ten years that nut culture ha3 been tried in this country, but it is being widely taken Serfator Plumb says our money circulation per capita has dwindled down to about $8 per head. How does this sound coming from an active member of the present administration.

What will thejassociat-ed press dispatches that are trying to fool the people, do about this statement? Something must be done quick or their labors in trying to fool the people will all be in vain. There is no use in denying the fact any longer, there is not one fourth money enough in circulation to do fhe legitimate business of the country. Cffey ville Nexus. The biggest trust, the richest syndicate, the most gigantic combination and the most dangerous conspiracy, in this country, is the National Bankers' association. It is a coldblooded money trust that bleeds every laborer and tolls all production, reaping where it has not sown, and gathering where it has not strewn.

It is an alleged t'-ust founded on a violation of the United States constitution, but too rich to be controlled by law. It is the outgrowth of foul treason at Washington during the war. Farmers' Advocate. The Farmers' Alliance is a protest against present conditions. A protest against the unequal distribution of the profits arising from labor in production.

A protest against those economic methods which give to labor a bare living and make capital the beneficiary of all life's pleas-ures and comforts. It is a protest against continual toil on the one hand, and continual ease and comfort on the other. It is a protest against forced economy, debt, and privation to the producer, and peace, plenty, happiness and prosperity to the nonproducer. Alliance Tribune. A binder trust was organized a short time since for the purpose of advancing the price on binders the coming season.

Matters assumed a dismal aspect for the farmers at first but thanks to their organization they were equal to the emergency. The Alliance of Ohio has just organized a company to manufacture binders and other farm machinery. The company has unlimited capital at its disposal, and will certainly drive the trust to the wall. One by one, these trusts are going out of business. Keep the grand work going all along the line.

Some sap-headed cranks in Franklin county, this state, are attempting up because of the large profits obtained from it, and great orchards of hundreds most profitable beef' is that which can be put upon the market and even thousands of trees are growing or being planted on every hand. In central California almond groves of from 2,000 to 5,000 trees are not unu sual, and in the southern part of the same state the English walnut, properly called the Madeira nut, is already extensively raised. The English waluut is grown also for market in most of the other states, and on Staten Island it is cultivated and sold green for pickles and catsup. The pecaa is grown in orchards in the South and Southwest, and the pinon, orpine nut. though quite unknown to people east of the Mississippi, is produced in immense quantities on the Pacific slope.

Wonderful results are obtained with nuts by-election and proper grafting. With care they increase surprisingly in size and become thin shelled. Here, for example, are some pecans. I don't wonder that you are astonished to have the school houses closed at their bigness. The pecans you are accustomed to see have been wild ones, whereas these are cultivalel specimens.

You will observe that they are five or six times as big as the ordinary nuts and their shells are so thin that you will notice I break this In that'' gSllswas con'ring back -Kansas'-'' for a few days, the K.

If the democrats and republicans can not agree in any other way we suggest that they run a joint ticket in 1892. Let Blaine and Cleveland pitch nickels to see who will head the ticket, and then let them "get together and fight for victory and the spoils Washington, (Kans.) Republican. The perfidy of the metropolitan papers in their effort to deceive the people and guide them into the hands of the capitalists who are slowly sucking the life blood of the nation, proves them to be greater traitors than ever Arnold was. Monopoly has them completely in its clutches.

Nebraska Independent. If God in the beginning had given Adam a salary of $25,000 a year and had continued liis life and salary until the present time, and Adam had hoarded every cent of it, he would yet be $50,000,000 poorer than William H. Vanderbilt; $25,000 6,000 is Vanderbilt's wealth, $200,000,000. Colorado Workman. "You can't legistate money into the pockets of the people," said an old party man.

This government has legislated a vast amount of money out of the pockets of the people, we take notice. Be candid about this matter, and admit it like an honest man that the rule will work both ways. Alliance Times. The Vanderbilts own millions of utaxed gold bonds. Depew is their servant.

The oppressed of this country may be sure that deliverance is nigh, when the Vanderbilts, through their servants, (Colo.) Call The democratic papers of the south are now setting up the howl that the Alliance-is a republican scheme to divide the solid south, while that jtngel of mercy the Topeka Capital still shrieks "rebel scheme." The ALiance will view this matter according to the old adage, "let dog eat While it goes rapidly and craefully onward and scoops inboth north and St. Marys Star. The republican party, that has fought greenbackism so long and so persistently is now "pointing with pride" to the fact that it is "the father of the greenbacks.

Yes, it was the father and then tried to kill its own child. And now that the baby is getting big enough to lick the old man, republicanism wants to pat it on the back and call it "Sonny." The Mail, Ozark (Mo.) The Pleasanton Herald says "We are in receipt of the Chetopa Democrat, and therein find a column editorial favorable to John W. Breiden-thal for U. S. Senator.

The editor of the Herald knows Mr. Breidenthal to be one of the best posted men in the state and true blue to the cause of the poor. He is the gentleman that the Herald advocated as the Union Labor candidate for governor in '88." Parnell still holds the fort in Irish politics although the country is bordering on war over the efforts of Eii Iish landlordism to down him. The money lords of that country have no "bloody shirt" to hold up for the people to gaze at while they rob them as they had in this country, but just at this time they are holding up Parnell's dirty linen and the people are being captured by the trick. Grand Island, (Neb.) Democrat.

We notice some of our Democratic exchanges are firing into President Harrison's policy ofj buying in bonds at a premium in order to relieve the money stricture. We do not care to say anything, at present F. H. Snow, chancellor of the University of Kansas, has for many months past been pursuing a systematic and thorough investigation of the Hessian fly, and what, if any remedy against the pest may be had. He says: In 1884 we had the first invasion by this fly of any consequence in this state.

The species appeared in large numbers, first being heard from in May on the eastern border, while late in the autumn reports showed a very general distribution of the insect throughout the eastern part of the state. The fly is one of the most formidable enemies which the wheat farmer has to contend with, and no pains should be spared to wage a destructive war against it. I may briefly summarize' the life, history and habits of the Hessian fly as follows: There are two broods, the first laying their ecgs on the leaves of the young wheat from early April to the end of May, the second brood appearing during August and the early part of September and laying the eggs, on the young winter wheat, the eggs, hatching about four days after being' laid. The larvae are minute white maggots and remain between the base of the leaves and the stem near the roots, causing the stalk to swell and the leaves to turn yellow and die. During the latter part of November they assume the "flax seed'' state and may on removing the lower leaves be found as little brown, oval, cylindrical bodied, a little smaller than grains of rice.

They remain in the wheat until the warm weather. In April the larvae rapidly transforms into the pupa namely: the "flax seed" stnge. The fly emerges from its case about the end of April. The eggs laid by this- first or spring brood of flies soon hatch. The second brood of larvae or maggots live-but a few weeks the "flax seed1' state is soon assumed and the autumn or second brood of flies appears in August.

The insects now in your wheat are in the masreot and also the "flax seed1' states, and are, of course, members of the second brood. The remedies are mostly pr eventive. After the wheat is once up and the flies are in, not much can be done. There are several destructure insect parasites of the Hessian, fly whose combined attacks are supposed at times to destroy about nine-tenths of all the flies hatched. Among the preventive measures which may be taken are the following: Sowing- a part of the wheat early and if affected by the fly plowing this in and sowing the rest after September 20.

This destroys the first brood an'l prevents the second brood from appearing. bowing hardy varieties of wheat. The use of lime, soot or salt, also raking off the stubbie. If the wheat be only partly affected it may be saved by fertilizers nd careful cultivation; or a badly damaged field of winter wheat may thus be recuperated in the spring. Pasturing sheep and consequent close cropping of the wheat in November and early December muy cause many of the eggs, larvae, and "flax seed" to.be destroyed; also rolling the ground may have the same effect.

All these remedies were recommended by the National Entomological Commission which devoted much time and work investigating the Hessian fly. To these recommendations of the commission I would add this, namely: to reduce to a minimum the amount of volunteer wheat. This serves as a convenient place for the deposit of the eggs of the summer brood of the flies, and thereby through a possible third brood may communicate the pest to the latter sown wheat of the regular crop. This reduction can be made by changing the wheat lands at least as often as once in two years. Cattle Hopes Lie in Good Cattle.

More plainly and still more plainly from week to week is demonstrated the fact that the great runs of cattle in the west and elsewhere are pressing more hardly upon evey branch of the cattle business than the ripening of choice beeves. The men who are putting first class cattle on the markets, while not receiving the prices of a few months ago, are getting so near them that they feel -to only a limited extent the pressure of the heavy runs. It has always been a point urged by the stockman, that beef production if it paid at all must pay best almost only where conducted with an eye to 6upplying the demand for the highest quality of meats. We hope that progressive beef makers when they read those columns will take this repeated lesson to heart, and decide either to be in competition with the best or to do something else. We see- no special hope in the future for the producer of inferior beef, while the man who puts his brain into studying the matter of furnishing prime beef to first class markets is as.

much as almost, any other agricultural producer likely to be paid for what he does. National Stockman. Mr. Blush, a Topeka man, is suing for a divorce. The Kansas Santa Claus carries a Xalm leaf fan.

This doesn't sound like Kansas nerve. The corn crop in Kansas last summer was nothing to brag about, but there are just as many colonels it the state as ever. Kansas is the only state noith of the Mason and Dixon line where wives give their husbands linen dusters for Christmas. "The Mercury," published at Lawrence, by "Mars, Jupiter Pluto," isn't a weather bulletin as may be suspected by the name. This weather is not unprecedented In Kansas People who read almanacs will tell you that the winter of 1885 was identical.

At the present time a man cannot safely reside in Kansas without the danger of being struck with a United States senatorship. Kd. Ecs, the editor of the Atchison Globe, has offered $100 or the original manuscript of "The Story of a Country Town." A reward of $300 has been offered by the governor for the conviction of the murderers of Ebenezer Morse at Lawrence on December 6. Congressman Otis will probably be very popular with aid committees. They will expect him to be familiar with theadlU of human kindness.

A dense fog enveloped the city Saturday until nearly noon and the jointists were as shady as ever. Ths old Oswego house that was built twenty-one years ago has been torn down, and an elaborate three story brick will be erected in its place.

Alliance members of the legislature ae requested to apply to the "Baker" for information regarding the 'butcher" and "candle-stick maker."

Frank Finch of the Troy Thuea sympathizes with the girL one easily between my thumb and finger, just as I. would a peanut. "The chestnut is susceptible of the same sort of improvement and in not less degree. It is beginning to be extensively planted and is found a most profitable agricultural product.

You are familiar with the. chestnut called the 'marron' that we import from abroad. It is grown in China and Japan, as well as in France, Spain, Italy and Portugal. In point of flavor it does not nearly equal the American chestnut, but it has a great advantage in point of size, being as big as a horse chestnut. Now, we can grow these marron perfectly well in this country and are already doing so in the central states, along the Atlantic end as fat west as the Mississippi.

Orchards oi seedlings are starting in many places, and before long the marron will become a plentiful native crop. There are some choice varieties of American chestnuts, grown mostly along the Apalachian range in North Carolina. Georgia and as far north as New York, which are nearly as big as the foreign kind. Here are a few that, you see, are quite an inch and a half in diame ter. These are chestnuts well worth cultivating.

There is plenty of waste land lying about that could be made admirable use of for chestnut plantations, and when I tell you that a single tree can be made to bear from $i0 to $50 worth of the nuts each year you will perceive that the business of raising nuts is well worth the farmers at tention." young. Give the hoga that are confined closely during the winter, a daily feed of clover hay, After it gets well seeded, blue grass makes one of the best, if not the best, pasture grass. On the average farm at least, there is but little danger of the hog house being too warm. When it can be readily secured sweet skim milk is preferable to sour for feeding to pigs. The cleaner the land can be left in the fall the more thoroughly the insect pests will be destroyed.

The amount of dead capital invested in idle horses is an immense sum. How much are you adding to it? It is rarely the case to find a farmer, that has dehorned his cattle, that is willing to allow the horns to grow any more. A horse that seems to work hard in moving is really working and is not as desirable as one that moves easily. It is a good plan to learn the disposition of your colts while training them, as under different dispositions they require different treatment. If an animal gets out of condition a little flax seed, boiled in oats and fed two quarts at a feed, will aid materially to get them into a good condition.

Unless fed under proper conditions a considerable amount of feed can easily be wasted in feeding cattle during the winter. It is very necessary to secure a good growth. It should be understood that late grass does not contain the nourishment that is in the more mature of summer, and for this reason the nations should be increased. It is not a good plan to mix the milk from a fresh cow with the balance too soon. It often is the cause of butter not coming, and for this reason alone will be best kept separate.

A yard pr lawn always looks without some flowering shrub's -and ornamental shade trees, and especially so in winter. A few shrubs and evergreens will relieve this appear-an ce. After the orchard gets well established it rarely pays to continue to crop it. The trees need all of the available plant food, in order to make a good growth and yield a crop of fruit. Hints to Housekeepers.

A thin slice of raw, fat pork dusted with cayenne pepper is our best remedy for a sore throat. Select a knitting basket as a gift for the friend who enjoys knitting. She will appreciate your thoughfulness. Don't ask a convalescent if he would like this or that to eat or drink, but prepare the delicacies and present them in a tempting way. No article whatever in the grocery line should be put away in the paper bags in which they came.

Macaroni should be placed in a tin box covered. Put French chalk or magnesia on silk or ribbon that has become greasy, and hold it near the fire. This will absorb the grease so it maybe brushed off. 5 For the instant destruction of roaches, stir into a half-pint of hot paste a dime's worth of phosphorus, when cool, a quarter the bulk of grease.

Do not interrupt others. If you are a 'dyspeptic do not fctalk of what does or does not agree with you, but quietly eat what you can and say nothing about it. A cough remedy: Take one ounce each of thorough wort, stick licorice, slippery elm and Uaxseed, add three pints of water, put all into a bright, tin pail, place this in a kettle of boiling water and let the contents simmer for three hours, stirring every few minutes. Strain the liquid, put back into the pail, add one pint of molasses, one pound of sugar, and, for-flavoring, one ounce of checkerberry. Take one teaspoonful three times a day, or oftener if the "cough is hard and troublesome.

A very good way of giving a bath to a delicate infant is to lay a small blanket in. the bottom of the bath, and wrap it around the child before lifting him out of the warm water. In this way he can feel no chill whatever from the outside air. The nurse should have on a large toweling apron in which to wrap the baby, wet blanket and all. The head can then be dried and the upper extremities, Heeping him well wrapped all the time.

Put on a warm shirt, slip off the wet apron, and wrap the little one in a warm, big Turkish towel, and dry and rub thoroughly. 4 against the alliance. If violence were ever justifiable, it would certainly be right for the alliance people to forcibly put those cranks out of the state. But that is just the kind of a spirit that has been fostered in Kansas for the past ten years. "You must drink just what we think you ought to drink; you must observe Sunday just as we think you ought to observe it, and you must preach just such doctrine as we decide that you ought to preach;" is the policy of Kansas cranks.

Is there not enough manhood in Kansas to rise up and eternally wipe out of existence the reign of fanaticism and intolerance? Topeka Republican. The Democratic organs of the South are very much alarmed at the prospect of the Farmers' Alliance crowding the heroes of the Confederacy to the rear. The Republican organs of the North have a like fear concerning the heroes of the Union army. No right feeling man, North or South, desires anything- of the kind, only so far as it is necessary in the effort to wipe out sectional strife and hate. The "bloody shirt" has been the principal stock in trade of ambitious politicians, North and South, for twenty-five years.

It has been used to keep alive all the old bitterness and prejudices between the masses of these sections, while the financial and political policy that, in its application, has impoverished the industrial classes North and South has been voted into existence by the "bloody shirt" wavers on both sides of the line. The Farmers' Alliance is rubbing out Mason and Dixon's line, and, in the near future, monopolistic lick-spittles will not be voted into official positions because they happened te wear the blue or gray. The rank and file of the old veterans are as determined about this as any other people. Nonconformist. Uncover the Ulcer.

Workman's Advocate. While the Mulhalls, the Griffens and Levys have lately been perpetrating their statistics to showacon-dition of increased wellbeiag among the people and a steady rise of wages among the working men of England, and while their products have been quoted extensively by the compeers in America, and applied by these to our own conditions, there comes Gen. Booth, and, with a simple and graphic picture of London, overthrows the card-board structure of our bourgeois economists. "In Darkest England" portrays the shocking amount of destitution and crime that keep up the structure of London rthe great metropolis of capitalism. There, it is shown 30,000 prostitutes roam the streets and a yet larger army of women increase their earnings by shame 22,000 juvenile thieves are locked up in prison, while 32,910 reputed thieves prowl along the highways and side streets; 155,000 persons pass through prisons, and the number of summary convicts runs up to 711,000.

In workhouses, asylums and hospitals 51,000 beings are herded; 33,000 walk the street, homeless 300,000 are starving and 222,000 are next door to starvation, and so on. We suggest a similar chart for the United States, whose conditions are altogether similar, and that the extensive patches of our territory, covering both the rural and industrial districts, on which the blight of capitalism has fallen, wrecking homes, producing widespread misery, together with unwholesome congestion of wealth, and conjuring up the long catalogue of crime that springs from such social maladjustments, be fitly surmounted with the filthy fiends, hooked, clawed and beaked, described by Dants in the tier of the usurers and speculators of A Long-Felt Want.

Our idol ized Cleveland did the same thing you know.

Pineville, (Mo.) Independent. The me mbers of the Kansas Alliance according to the Ottawa Republican, have contributed during the last nine months, $176,500 for organization, $55,000 for fees $82,500 for dues, and, $38,500 for assessments. $351,500 is a pretty big sum for Kansas farmers to blow in such a year as this. Who got the benefit of this enormous sum? Concordia Times. The ballot is the only weapon with which the workingmen can secure thei 'ghts.

But, strange to say, a century has passed away since this weapon was put into their hands, and they have not yet found how, when or where to use it for their own benefit, even though they are constantly about election time importuned and fooled into utilizing it for the benefit of others, and frequently they turn out to be frauds. Coast Seamen's Journal. Yoying Fruit Trees. We have never found a better way to judge of the bearing of young fruit trees, and to decide whether they are bearing too little or too much, says the Albany Cultivator, than to observe the length of the annual shoots. The treatment is then to be given in accordance with the result of this examination.

If the growth is slow, mellow culture or fertilizers will be necessary. If, a3 generally happens, slow growers bear too much, thin out most or all the fruit when small, which will aid in giving the trees more vigor, and what little fruit there is will be worth more than the numerous small and scrubby specimens. Small growth and too much small fruit go together, and growth furnishes a few large M4 fine ones, it the annual shoots C79 Mt ever a foot long in the early To Make Limo Water.
