Senator Jones Admits That There Can Be
but One Standard of Value.
No government can maintain at one
time more than one standard of value,
than one standard of measure, or more
than one standard of length. If there
be two or more standards of different
in practice become the only standard.
If one goes into the market, the law
being that a yard shall be either two
feet or three feet in length,- andbuys
carpets by the yard at a fixed price,
there will be delivered to him carpets
measured in yards (.1 two feet in length.
If he buy coal by the ton, the law being
that a ton shall be either 2,000 or 2,240
pounds, he will receive tons of 2,000
pounds each. If he buy potatoes by the
bushel, the law being that a bushel
shall contain either two pecks or four
pecks, there will be delivered to him
bushels of two peeks each.
On the same principle,‘if the law be
that a dollar is either a gold coin, with
a bullion value equal to its face value,
‘or a silver coin, with a bullion value of
only half its face value, and not con-
vertible at par into gold coin, the sell-
ers of the carpets, the coal and the pota-
_ toes will be paid in dollars of the lesser
value. _
There never has been and there never
can be in any country at any time a bi-
metallic standard, and the attempt to
create a double standard has never pro-
duced anything better than an alter-
nating standard, with the inevitable
consequences of injustice with reference
to past contracts and uncertainty with
reference to future contracts. ,
Indeed, Senator Jones admits in the
report of the silver commission of 1876
that “whenever underthe double stand-
ard there is a variance between the le-
gal and market relations of the metals
the standard would be practically based
on one metal, and it the cheaper and
more available One. ” The financial his-
tory of the United States and of France
furnish conclusive evidence of the accu-
racy of the senator’s view on this point.

More Money In Circulation.
If there was any actual relation be
tween the quantity of money in circula-
tion and national prosperity, we would
now be on a flood tide. For more than
a twelvemonth now the amount of mon-
ey in circulation in the United States
has been steadily on the increase. July
1. 1896, about the time the Chicago
plathrm was in the process of incuba-
tionand the‘mouth of the popocrat was
.flill of demands for more of the circu-
lating medium, the total money in cir-
culation in the United States was $1,-
$09,725, 200, making $21.15 per capita
on an estimated population of 71,390,-
000.
Nov. 1, 1896, on the eve of the elec-
tion, when the people of the United
States were to give their verdict against
a debased and depreciated currency, the
money in circulation was $1,627,055,-
614, making $22.63 per capita on an es-
. timated population of 71,902,000.
March 1, 1897, on the eve of McKin-
ley’s inauguration, the total money in
circulation in the United States had
risen to the unprecedented sum of $1,:
675,694,953, making $28.14 per capita
on an estimated population of 72,418.-
000.
To fully appreciate this increase of
the money in circulation in the United
States it is only necessary to say that
in the last ten months it amopnted to
$165,969,753, or more than $2 per cap-
ita of the entire population.
While the absolute circulation has
passed all. previous high water marks
the per capita circulation is still $1.30
below that of 1892, just before the pan.
ic. But the per capita is now higher
than it was in' 1890. or any year in the
history of the republic prior to that.
Then why are the times not as good as:
they were along in Gthe late eighties?
Simply because good times .depend on
public confidence and industrial activ-
ity, and not on the amount of money in
circulation. This is simply the teaching
of the old proverb that a nimble’six-
pepce is better thma slow shilling.—

Cleanliness in Dairy Work.
Life, it has been said, is made up o5
little things, and it can be said tha'l
dairying is_ made up the same way—h:
fact, any business is made up of litilf
lh": s ard details, and if these are uol
properly attended to, failure results.
, One of the most important details 0-1
dairying is cleanliness. This should be
observed from the milking of the cows
to the packing of the p-roductébuttel
especially. .
The daily cleaning of dairy utensils
is one of the important factors in pro-
moting cleanliness. All the milk in 01
on a dairy utensil should first be
rinsed ed with water far below the
scalding point before any water up to
that point is used. If scalding water
is used at the start the milk is cooked
and then it is almost impossible to re-
move it from the article—especially the
creases or seams if any there be.
If scalding water is used on a milk
strainer of fine mesh’es before the milk
has been rinsed with water of a lower
temperature the strainer will be about
as good as ruined and the same will
result if the milk is allowed to dry in.
Therefore, if the user is not ready to
rinse off the milk as soon ‘as through
using let the strainer be put under wa~
ter and left there till it can be proper
ly cleaned.
The cans of portable ‘creameries
should be kept scrupulously clean. This
can be easily accomplished if attended
to every time they are emptied andthe
rules above mentioned observed.
The water and ice tank of a portable
creamery should be carefully looked
after. In the first place care should
be taken. to thoroughly rinse off all saw-
dust that may stick to the ice before
the latter is placed in the tank. Next,
he sure when straining the milk not
to spill any of it into the water. But
if any gets into it then change the wat-
at once—especially during warm
weather.
Every dairyman should have a dairy
room or house, and it should be lo-
cated where no foul odors would be
likely to reach it. ’
That cleanliness is next to Godliness
is especially true when applied to
dairying.—Western Rural.
Orchard Planting by the Wayside.
This is receiving more attention in
some parts of our older states and de-
serves much more than it gets any-
where. Our public lands-are so near
exhausted for homesteads, that the su-
perabundance of land in the United
States will not allow us to be waste-
ful in its use. In Germany the plant-
ing of forest trees by the roadside is
no longer a practice. The highways
are a continuous garden. The owner
of adjacent land has charge of the
roadway fruit; but the roadway 0-f-
ficials assume charge of the care and
protection of the trees. The railways
are now following the growing custom,
and planting apples and pears along
the sides of their tracks. There are a
few sections in the United States
where apple and cherries have for
some years been the common. road
trees. The fruit, so far as I can see,
is no more subject to molestation than
that which grows inside the lines of
strictly private ownership. I found
near Ithaca, N. Y., choice cherries by
the side of the road; and the trees
were loaded with undisturbed fruit.
Possibly most of us would consent that
even half of such fruit should refresh
the wayfarers, if we could utilize the
streets, and have half the product as
compensation for the planting. In this
section of the state, apple trees line
some of the roadways, but more at-
tention is ‘given to ornamental shrub-
bery, extending the lawns to the street
ditch.—-E."P. Powell, New York.

It seems strange that this generally
useful and valuable vegetable should
not have found a place in every farm
garden. It is a form of beet in which
the leaves are the only part used, the
roots being small and fibrous. The
general culture of the plant is much
like that of the ordinary beet with. the
exception that it requires more room.
as the foliage of each plant makes a
good sized bush. For boiled salad or
greens, the young plants pulled out
when thinning the main crop are most
suitable, or the blades of the larger
may be used for the purpose. But the
best and most valuable part of the
plant is its large pure white stem or
midrib of the leaf. These are cut into
small pieces, stewed and served with
a white sauce, as'used with asparagus
and celery. This is one of the most
prolific crops in existence, as only the
outer leaves are pulled off for use, and
new ones are growing from the heart
in rapid succession. Moreover. it is a
very ornamental plant, the variegated
forms of which are well adapted for
grouping in lawns or flower gardens.

In'ihe climate of sudden changes there
prevails a disease, almost unknown in
the old world, which has been called the
American National Disease. Its many
forms have various Symptoms. anltoyicg
alike to the sufl'erer and his as whites
This disease is catarrh ad by. :2n.lic..5 it
has for years been considerud incurable
Many pretended “cures” promised relief
—no lime stalerl—on‘y to disappoint
the user after he had used enough to
give the manufacturers a good profit.
They held out the promise of a cure in
the future, only to fail after many dollars
had been Spent. But ,there is a remedy
that has relieved and cured millions of
cases of cata rh. thousands of them right
here in New England. The proprietors
took many hundred free patients in the
Norwalks to prove to the people of these
cities that California Catarrh Cure would
instantly nlievc and cure catarrh surely
and quickly. People from Norwalk,.
South Norwalk, and as far away as Stam-
ford are giv'ng their testimony and it is
all one way, California Catarrh Cure has
triumphed. The National disease is no
longer incurable. Catarrh, disagreeable
and nauseating can be cured and has-
been cured right here in Norwalk.
Note this indorsement and be doubtful
no more. . One of the people who got a
bottle of California Catarrh Cure at
Plaisted‘s Drug Store on December .lSth,
was Mrs A. B. Freeman who lives at 8
Hanford place. After a thorough -trial,
she says: “I have suffered a great deal
with severe headaches caused by catarrh;
my head was stuffed up and' my throat
also troubled 'me greatly. I got a bottle
of California Catarrh Cure at Plaisted’s
Drug Store and it has helped me very
much in every way;it has cleared my head
and keeps it clear, my throat is well and
my headaches have gone for good. I
must say it is a wonderful medicine, and
I am glad to recommend it.”

dealers; 50 cents, three times as much,
