Atchison, Kan, June 14-It has de-
veloped here that on Wednesday last
Joseph W. Oliver, now under arrest for
blowing up Gov. Smiths residence with
dynamite, purchased two sticks of
dynamite, FIVE caps and % yards of
fuse in this city and it is now believed
that he is responsible for the explo-
sion.
Veteran Phillips, another dishonora-
bly, discharged old soldier who is said
to be an expert in bomb manufacture,
also is under arrest Mrs Smith is out
of danger. 1t appears that Oliver had
repeatedly written open letters, in
some OF which he threatened to kill
Smith. The alleged dynamiter states
that he was a member of the Eleventh
Illinois cavalry, and that he served
four years in the war
Leavenworth, Kan, June 14-Since
the explosion at the soldiers home it
has developed that the life of Maj
Shociley, the president of the soldiers
home, was threatened by Joseph w.
Oliver the veteran now under arrest
for placing the dynamite bomb near
the Smith residence. divers pension

threat week ago Saturday in the
presence of Dilwyn Packer, Shock

sion money, amounting to S7j OOO from
Leavenworth to the home.
Oliver told a comrade that he was
the originator of the plot and that
only for the police protection accorded
the paymaster it would have succeeded.
Shocllley thought the man a harmless
lunatic and no attempt was made to
arrest him. Yesterday Oliver related
a long list Of supposed wrongs the gov
ernor had done him and ended by de.
claring his innocence.
The national board of managers of
the soldiers home is expected to arrive
here Tuesday on its annual tour of in
@pection and to make arrangements for
the transfer of Gov Smith to the
branch at Santa Monica, Cal. Gov.
Smith says nothing will be done to-
ward clearing up the wreck of his resi-
dence until after the board views it
and makes arrangements for rebuild
ing the shattered structure.

from birth to six months of age should
be weighed weekly, as by this means, al
most to the exclusion of all others, we

ing the first week there is generally loss
in weight, bur by the end of the second
week the child should have regained its
birth weight, and if there is a gain of
less than four ounces weekly. or a sta

CREAMERY SUCCESS.
Unless All Patrons Work Together It
Cannot he Achieved


Ifcreamery butter is better than aver
age dairy butter it is because the man
agement at the creamery is upon high
er scale than in the average private
dairy. There is no gain in taking the
milk of a dozen or more second or third
class farmers and handing it over to an
unskilled creamery man to make into
butter. Two interiors do not make one
superior. Two ciphers cannot by any
arrangement be made into whole
number. A successful creamery must
have not only skillful manager and
butter maker, but guaranteed supply
of good, sound milk or cream in suffi-
cient quantity to utilize the capacity of
the concern. The more cows the greater
will be the percentage of profit. Nor
can the butter-maker alone control tho
character of the butter product.
Poor, dirty milk cannot appear later
in form of first-class butter. The skill
and intelligence, indispensable at q
creamery, must extend out among tha
milk producers. Poor cows yielding
but little milk can never pay their keep,
| uO VI hOWcNCI
great, can render creamery profitable
to it's patrons. For the highest sue
cess under cooperative system each
individual must put forth the same effort
that would be required for success in
private management. Dairymen who
join creamery association expecting
to gain more than they give are hardly
deserving of pity when they discover
their mistake.
No one has any business to ask for
anything beyond what he is willing to
give an equivalent for. Men join in rails
ing the heavy frame of building be-
cause they can accomplish In that way
what they could never do singly. A man
who on such an occasion does nothing
but "holler" is sneak and when found
out is always despised. Not less mean
is it to join creamery association and
then carry poor milk, expecting to di-
vide the profits of those who furnish
the best they know how. Cooperation
is success only when each works for
all and all for each, and this idea lies at
the bottom of all forms of associated
effort whether in the factory, the
grange, the municipality or the church.

Pasture for Dairy Cows.

In an experiment carefully made to
determine the relative product of a
good blue grass pasture and the same
amount of land in forage crops cut and
fed in the stall, it was found that the
pasture produced 1,779 pounds of milk
which made SO pounds of butter pei
acre. By the soiling system the yield OF
milk was 4,7s2 pounds and made 19t
pounds of butter. The pasture was a
good one and would carry cow per acre
in summer under favorable weather
Feed is always more or less wasted
when cattle are allowed to gather i,
themselves. Some is trampled unde,
foot, and considerable is rendered un-
palatable by the excrements of the ami
mafs.-Rural World.

bors in the cities, and especially

of them who are candidates for public
life, that the interests of the city popu-
lation demand that they shall come to
the relief of the farmers, you can go to
the farmers with this assurance of help
and ask them to take into careful con-
sideration the practical measures by
which this relief can be brought about,
and especially the measures for provid-
ing state aid and for the use of convict
labor. 1t is only through state and
county aid that the cities and villages
can help. If you find the farmers
clinging to the old ways, say to them
that these ways are mainly an unfor-
tunate inheritance from the mother
country, which we brought away with
us and failed to shake off when the sys-
tenn was abandoned there; and that to-
day in Great Britain not only are the
roads maintained at the general cost of
the people, but government loans are
made for any specially heavy improve
ments that are desired. Two hundred
years ago the great highways of that
country were kept up, so far as they were
kept up at all, just as they are in this
state to-day. by local taxation, while
they actually served the people of the
whole kingdom.
Upon the convict labor question, let
them understand that 900 idle men are
being marched about in Sing Sing pris-
on to-day for exercise, whose labor, if
properly directed, could provide the
material for thousands of miles of good
roads every year, and that the honest
industry of the country pays for main
tanning these criminals in idleness.
These things would be incredible if told
in England to-day. They would be a
bitter reproach to our republican insti-
tutions. And they would add another
argument, and most powerful one. for
those who claim that our system of gov
eminent cannot care for the economic
interests of the people as well as mon
archy. 1t would be fata! indictment
against our Institutions, if it must be
truly said, that free people, in rich
country, cannot secure for themselves
the blessing of good roads.-Gen. Roy
Stone.

AGRICULTURAL HINTS
GOOD TIMES COMING.
Panfcs Are Unknown Wherever I'M
proved Roads Are introduced.

Panics Are Unknown Wherever I'M
proved Roads Are introduced.
That good roads will bring prosperity
is no idle dream. Through all the panic
and depression of the last three years
the farmers in the few good-roads dis
tricts of the country have gone on max
ing money and improving their farms,
and they have not troubled themselves
much about politics or finance.
It is enforced idleness that makes
farmers poor, and no farmer need be
idle day on account of bad weather or
wet fields if only his roads are good. On
a good road there is always paying
work of some kind, and wet weather is
just the time to go on the road. The
French farmer never loses a good day
in his fields, for he can do all his market
ing and hauling of fertilizers in rainy
times.
What prosperity would burst upon
this country if every farmer and farm
er's boy, not at school, and every farm
hand and team could earn full days
wages every day in the year, rain or
shinei
