After the broom com la thor oughly dry the next step Is to bale and this ojieratlon ahould receive great care ami attention. There are too mauy aliaky and lopsided bulea received an nually and It bothers thoae who handle them to keep them from falling apnrt. It being of great Importance to keep the ends of the bales square and "smooth, the brush ahould be handed to the packer In small lots, the butts of which, having been eveued by striking down uM)ii a tuble or other amooth sur fuee, aud the one who place the brush In the Imix of the preas ahould take care to keep the butts up close against the mUi of the box and the brush properly 1uhhI In the Interior.

Xo matter how carefully and siieeettHfully every step In the produc tion of the brush has been performed, the prollt of the crop will depend, other things equal, upon proper haling. Great enre and atteutlon should be given to having the seeds removed, there being too much fraud practiced by baling up trash, seeds and crooked corn In the bales with straight brush. Bale the crooked by Itself.-Pralrle Fanner. I A Buvsjeatlon for Farm Fchonla. The agricultural college la undoubted ly the best pluce for a young man to l. aru the science of farming, but there are some who will not attend because they think that the college Is not prac tical enough. Would It be practicable for large farmers to establish farm 'schools In connection with their farms? J They could employ young men who do fn.it wish to attend au agricultural coi nage, but who wish to learn the best Jfann methods, have them work eight or tn ii hours a day, the eveuluga to be em ' ployed In reading, studying and attend ing lectures, the farmer to question 'and lustruct them In their studies; also ito give occasional let-tun, supplement ed by lecture by other capable men. sTIie young men, by having the advant fni'i. of such Instruction, could afford Jto work for less than ordinary wages; they could thus get a very good educa tion, while otherwise the evening would be spent In Idleness. The farmer would be benefited, too, because he would iret a eood class of help and Jcould afford to spend some time In In sstructlng them because he would not i have to pay so high wages. Exchange. I If there are no large farmers to open j-up such a school there are plenty of i farmer boys In a nelghlHirhood who 1 could profit by such a school, which might be established by a mnnlier or farmers able to talk on agricultural topics and to Impart practical knowl edge In that line. Where this Is Im practicable some competent Instructor could be hired nt a small expense to those uttendlng. Rural New Yorker. Makes the limes Worse. It la a fact without doubt that too much talk about hard times helps to make them worse. A farmer who Is an occasional caller at the Kural North west, but never complains of hard times, was asked the other day why It was that he never had anything to say on the subject. Ills reply was that It could not do any good to. complain nlxnit the hard times, and If everjixnly would keep a "stiff upper lip" and say nothing about the matter times would not seem half so hard and pretty auou they would not be so hard. The com plainants' talk of hard times has a treat effect In preventing people from engaging In new enterprises and pre vents many people from spending money who could well afford to doso. Iturul Northwest. Bottled Grape Juice. Tick the grapes from the stems and niah them. Strain the Juice Into a ket tle, boll It, remove the scum, strain it into bottles and Real It as you would canned fruit. The bottle may be tight ly corked and sealing-wax put on above the cork. If only a small quantity of Juice la to be used at one time, small xittles will be more convenient than larger ones. Hut It will keep sweet sev eral days after Ining opened In ordtn ry weather. Lay the bottles on their "Ides In a cool, dark place. It will do no harm to strain the wine when the Iwttlea are opened. Hon't use sugar; t Is unnecessary, and there Is some danger of making grape Jelly Instead of lne. Thus made It will keep for years.

Powlnar Hye After Tiirnliia. Turnips will continue to grow after light frosts, aud If the laud Is filled with weeds easily killed, the turul will sometimes make a uiore vigorous growth In warm weather following n frost than they did before It. There Is a great deal of liltrogcuous plant foul In the soil late In the full, and even the turnljis cannot save It all. Kye can be sown, and will get some growth even after the turnips have to be gathered. It la much better to have tu the soil over whiter than It la to leave the soil miked. It Is lietter for tills purpwe late lu the season than la crimson clover, which will live, and by Its growth then help to dry out land that Is too wet and tit it for plowing. Petting- Cnrrsot Cuttings In Fall. The currant roots more readily from cuttings than most other fruits. Its wood Is, however, very soft, and If set late In fall the cuttings will lie consid erably Injured before spring by freez ing and thawing. While the currant bush la reasonably hardy on Its own root. Its cuttings will not get root to hold them from being thrown out. They should lie heeled In during the winter, and lo planted where they are to re main In spring. ! Orapea for Winter Use. Grapes need to be rlened wholly on the vine. They will not, like pears and apples, ripen In the cellar. The really ripe grapes will endure several de grees of frost. If this occurs curly, so as to warrant some warm weather after It, some grape growers leave the grapes oil the vines for some time after most of the leaves have been frosted. The grapes will rlen thus, but very slowly. It Is a risky business, for a heavy frost sometimes comes and spoils those grapes left to ripen late. Uddt and Knda.

Farm Nolea. Michigan lias a new turnip disease. It drlesuptheleaf.lt Is a fungus, which accompanies wet, muggy weather. The remedy, or preventive, Is to burn all the affected tops. When suit Is kept where the cows can help themselves there Is no danger of their eating too much. It is only when It Is kept from them for some time that there Is any risk of their doing so. Teach trees can be cut back very low, which mnkes them stocky, but such trees when two or three years old are not as easily cultivated as trees Uiat are higher. The low trees stand heavy winds better, however, and shade the ground around the trunks from the sun. Where It Is desirable to keep the dirt In place on any situation where the dirt may become loosened and fall away, It has been suggested by one who has test ed them to use the Japanese honey suckle or Virginia creeper, as the vines root as tbey grow, forming dense thick-1 r .rrnu-tli and take the place of rin v. b " sodding.

The Bimetallic Leauge tomorrow will issue a uiauifesto claiming that Mo Kinley's election ia a victory for inter national bimetallism, and quoting the inuuey plank of the St. Looia platform.

The Paris, Berlin, Vienna and Frankfort stuck exchanges were in ex cellent tone and active today in oon se quence of the result of the election in the United States, aud dealinga in Ameri can aecnritiea showed advauces. A dispatch to the Times from Glas gow asya the general opinion there is that McKinluy'a election will give a great temporary stimulus to the British export trade in order to ruxb merchan dise forward before Mr. McKiuley comes into office. Higher tariffs are then expected to be enacted. The sugar houses of Glasgow aay tbey expect the duties on refined sugar imported iuto the United States will be raised 3 tents. With retiued sugars selling at 9s per cwt, the possibility of loss to speculators is small. It ia be lieved Americans will commenoe to buy largely for December, January aud February delivery. There ia no doubt there will be a rush to export woolen oft goods to America. Shipowners foresee little benefit, as moat of the steam tonnage has already been char tered for spring. The ironmasters say they havo done without America for two years, and will be able to continue without a sin gle American order.

Another atep in a loug-stsu'liug controversy has been taken by a secretary of the interior in declining to approve the designation of the oity of Duluth as the eastern ter minus ot initial point of the Northern Pacific railroad grant. The depig ment holds that the terminus should ba at right angles to the last section of the road, and directs that new ter minus of the road accordingly. Under the construction of the department the line of both the Northern Pacific aud Lake Superior & Mississippi roads art the same between Thompson aud Du luth. A liuo of the same churaoter as a termiual line should be established upon the Lake Superior & Mississippi road at Thompson. Between the line thus established aud the eastern ter minus of the Northern Faoiflo grant, when established as now directed, the Northern Pacific Company will not ba entitled to indemnity for landa to which the other company may have been eutitled under its grant. The in tention of congress, it is stated, was evidently to provide against making a donble grant, where the two land grants wore found to be on the same general liues tteriuany Is I'leitseil. Berlin, Nov. 0. The result in tha election iu the United States was re ceived throughout Germany with great satisfaction, except by the bimetalists. A high otliuial of the foreign offlo said: "The government is pleased with tbe result, and congratulates tha American people on ridding them selves fur good of an incubua and dan ger of financial upheaval which would follow the unsettling of the currency." A prominent bimetallist aaid: "I have heard the nowa with un feigned sorrow. The defeat of the ail er movement in the United States will undoubtedly react unfavorably upon the bimetallio movement in Ger many, and tbe rest of Kurope. Still, 1 do not despair.
