The Way to DO 1t.

What lions are in the way as soon
as the people prepare to do anything
for their emancipation. See the lions
that spring up to stop government
ownership of all means of transporta-
ton.
The granting of it would make the
government own all the steam rail-
roads and electric lines in the country,
and steamers and sailing vessels of all
sorts. Such ownership and control
would include land traffic and trans
portation by lake and river, and the
coasting as well as foreign trade. ferry
boats, stages, and omnibus So
Why didn't the fellow include all the
skiffs and bicycles and baby wagons?
We the people would control such
portion only of transportation as we
were pleased to, not Including vessels
running to foreign ports. at present.
Government could get the money to
buy the railroads very handily by a
graduted property tax on the multi
millionaire. Percy Daniels of Kansas
figures up two billion dollars the first
year as the return from a reasonable
tax of that sort.

Almost the Same state of Amsirs Exist
cd Chara Yaara Ago. -. =. -ala

4fs i8-@
Almost the same state OF affairs
reigned in Switzerland fifty years ago
that we have at present in the United
States. The usurer and the party in
power worked hand in hand. Their
object was to usrrp by the legal mode
of usury, the control OF the farms Of
the country, and they had almost sue
ceeded, when the people arose en-
masse and said at the polls of 1916:
mo, further! This is country of free
men and free We intend to remain. :"
When grayhaired men that had sup
ported the G.. o. P, all their lives STEP
ped out of the ranks and enlisted in
the liberal party. Patriots were elect
ed to hold the government .reigns in
their strong, willing hands. They
devised plan by which the mort
cages on the farms could be lifted. A
government bank was established.
But where to get the money to loan
to the people? Staemplei, the great
leader, found way out OF the diff
Guilty. The people alone have the
power to create money. They en-
trusted US as their representatives to
use this power for the welfare of the
country. We have no gold nor silver,
but we'll find substitute. And thus
the government bank notes were is
sued. Now, the Shylocks saw their
danger they perceived if this plan
was successfully put in operation their
power was gone forever. By every
means this newly created money was
fought. But the people at large said.
This currency shall be legal tender
for all debts. be they private or pub
lic.' And how did they circulate these
newly born children of necessity? AS
said above the new party passed bill
by which government bank was to be
established. And in this bank the
government notes were deposited for
circulation. To this institution the
owners of land could come, and after
proving that their holdings were not
mortgaged for more than half their
actual value, receive a loan thereon.
And if the land was mortgaged for less
than half of it's actual value, the gov
eminent bank would buy the mort
gage, and then make new contract
with the mortgage. The Shylocks
that owned the mortgages would not
accept these strips of paper stamped
with the government seal. However,
when they were given to understand
that they must take it or nothing, they
very gladly accepted it.
On what condition did the farmers
secure loan from the government?

years time, at 81 per cent interest, the

Poultry Pickin gs.

It is not necessary to keep ROSTERS I'M
less the eggs are intended for Matching.
If hens are kept for eggs alone one
of the best, if not the best breed to keep
is the Houdans
Geese and ducks are both good scaven-
gers, and will eat much that would other
wise go to waste.
Keep the hens laying in their places.
They have no business making nests in
lofts and managers.
Young ducks will lay when months
old, but if the eggs are to be Matched an
old drake should run with them.
When the hens are confined one rooster
to every twenty-five hens will be enough,
but when given a good range one to every
dozen hens will be better.
In selecting the cocks for breeding have
them of good size, broad breasted, strong
legs and wings, carrying the head high
and growing loud and often.
The guinea is semi-tropical bird, and
while if let alone they will usually roost in
trees, yet they suffer severely from cold
and should be taught to roost in the
poultry house.
Buckwheat and corn are fattening;
wheat is best for eggs; oats next to wheat
Rye, sun-fowers and sorghum can be used
to make up a good variety. Ground bones
and oyster shells help form egg shells and
sand and gravel help the gizzard to grind
the food.

Fertilizers for Potatoes.

The use OF large amounts OF stable
manure furnishes the nitrates essential
to rapid vegetable growth only as they
ferment and decay. This keeps the
potato roots warm and moist early in
the season, but the rank growth thus
gained is favorable to the bacteria
which cause blight and rot. Potatoes
thus grown are generally scabby, and
often diseased. Usually, too the ac-
tive fermentation of manure is checked
at midsummer by drought, and the
stable manure hurts it rather than
helps it. Handsomer, smoother pota-
toes, and also larger yields are grown
on clover sod with little commercial
fertilizer mixed with the earth in the
hill. The clover sod furnishes mois-
ture longer than rotting manure will
and with less heat The sulphuric
acid used in making the fertilizer de-
stroys the germs OF fungus in the soil.
Potatoes do not especially need phos-
phate, but it is for making phosphate
more soluble that sulphuric acid is
mainly used and if the potatoes do
not use the phosphate it remains for
use by subsequent wheat crops that do
need it. Fertilizers rich in nitrate and
potash are always needed by potatoes,
and the special fertilizers for potatoes
containing extra amounts of the plant
foods, are always used by those who
aim to grow the largest crops. 1t is
only such crops that can be always de-
pended upon to pay, as they cost least
in proportion to the yield. American

More Money Wanted.

From one of those profo undly wise
reports which eastern mercantile agen-
cies send out regularly every week we
select the following specimen chunk:
With business in many lines dis
appointingly dull the feeling of conf
dence, nevertheless distinctly in
creases that the country will be able
to sell such vast quaD titles of grain
abroad and to draw so heavily upon
foreign supplies of capital that all
home industries will be greatly stimu-
lated. Monetary difficulties are still
in the future, for though at some
southern points markets are tight,
supplies at western centers are ade-
quate for legitimate business and mere
speculation gets less help than usual. -
Business is ''disappointlngly dull"'
yet still confidence increases.
In short, times are hard and mer-
chants are on the verge of bankruptcy
but they are still whistling to keep
their. courage up.
But here is the item which i'm
pressed us most forcibly:
"Ihe country will be able to sell
such vast quantities of grain abroad
and to draw SO heavily upon foreign
supplies of capital that all home in
dustries will be greatly stimulated.
In other words. to tell the exact
truth, by robbfng ourselves of bread
stuffs. which are sadly needed at home
for even Ingalls, says that ID, 600, 600
people in the United States are in a
state of starvation from one years end
to the other-we can get capital (mon-
ey) enough to use 80 that our indus
tries will be greatly stimulated.
1t is money, then, that we want? =
So says every sensible man in the
United States.
Then, instead of robbing ourselves
of bread stuffs to exchange for foreign
capital why not let the government
issue a few hundred million dollars OF
greenbacks? asks the Sentinel.
The farmers would be glad to get
them.
Merchants would gladly accept them.
Workingmen would gladly accept
them.
Only Shylock. who demands colo
contract in his bond and mortgage
would object to them.
