Ex-senator Puffer and Others,

ator PETER of Kansas that hereafter
he will again associate himself with
the Republican party is full of signiti-
canoe Mr.. PETER is one of the most
conspicuous of Il large number of vot-
ers who left the Republican party be-
cause they thought that prosperity
could be brought back to the country
by some other means than through a
Protective Tariff. Ex-senator PETERS
return to the Republican party marks
his recognition of the fact that, as a
creator of prosperity, Protective Tar
ift is a pre-eminent success; that the
Western seekers for prosperity are sat
isfled with the results which the Ding
ley law has brought to pass, and that
the place for those who want the
country to continue in the path of pros
perity. is with the party which
will continue our present policy. Elk
Senator PETER is but one of many,
conspicuous because of the high polite
al position which he has held. With
him will be found thousands upon
thousands of his former constituents,
who like him, have decided that Pro-
lection is good enough for them The

As Others See 1t.

The keen interest manifested by the
industrial and commercial world in the
subject OF faithful enforcement Of
the Tariff law like from the standpoint
Of revenue collection, fairness as be-
tween importers and Protection to
competing domestic producers is
shown in two articles, news and edi-
torial, In the Providence Or. ~ News"
of May r. This ably conducted news
paper. published In one of the busiest
Industrial centers of the United States
sees in this question of systematic I'M
LIBERALIZATION a matter of vital concern
far beyond the business circles imme-
diately interested at the chief port OF
entry. far beyond local party politics
organizations or cliques. 1t sees that
upon upon the outcome of this fierce
struggle depends much more than
the direct issue between importers who
seek to evade and officials earnestly en-
gagged in trying to thwart the evasion
of the Tariff law.
In the days of Daniel Manning, Sec
rotary of the Treasury in the FIRST ad-
minlstration of Grover Cleveland, the
gross sum of money lost by the Gov
eminent each year as the result of I'M
LIBERALIZATION at the port of New York
was estimated by that able executive
officer at the enormous sum of $4O,-
5000. Whether this huge scale of
robbery was maintained during Presi-
dent Cleveland's second term there is
no means of positive information now
at hand; but there is small reason to in
fer that 1t had greatly diminished,
much less wholly disappeared, in the
period of 1S93-97.
Certain it is that differentiation has
for many years been the source Of
much scandal and the cause of vast
losses to the Government revenues.
When to these elements in the case are
added the serious disadvantages re-
Sulting to importers making honest val
uatlOnS and to home manufacturers
who through the differentiation of
competing foreign commodities were
deprived of the measure of Protection
guaranteed to them in the Tariff sched-
ules, the sum total of the undervalua.
ton evil reaches tremendous proper
lions. 1t is. therefore, not difficult to
understand why many reputable news
papers i'll various parts of the country
should treat the subject as of the first
Importance from a national point of
view
For the sake of honesty in business
relations, fidelity to official obligations,
Federal Treasury, and fairness to the
immense and far reaching interests in
whose behalf the Dingley Tariff was
enacted, the whole country will concur
in the sentiment of the Providence
News" when it says:
In spite Of the organized aggres-
siyeness of rich and influential import
ers who have been accustomed to hav-
ing their own way in the appraisers
office so long that the idea of being
thwarted now enrages them, the puri-
flying methods that have recently held
sway in that branch of the customs
service have already put several plugs
In the way of that leak of $44. 900, 900.
OF course, outraged selfish interests,
guided by shrewd lawyers, are trying
to knock these plugs out by cloudng
the issues, thereby fooling public SEN
timent and hoodwinking the admins
tration. But it would be a pity if they
should succeed"

BALANCED RATIONS.
The Aims and Purpose of Agricultural
Colleges.

The Aims and Purpose of Agricultural
Colleges.
Everybody has heard of worn out"
land. Why does land become worn out
Simply because it has not been given
nourishment, that is, proper food, and
In adequate amounts. Land Is also spo-
ken of as mot in good heart" This con-
dition arises from its not having had
nourishment that fed all the elements
Of the soil. The intelligent farmer under
stands this and so he seeks those nutri-
tive substances that will nourish every
element of his land. The agricultural
college and experiment stations are
maintained primarily to supply him with
information that will enable him to
select natural foods for his land and
cattle. To properly feed land and cat
tie is the basic principle of practical
agriculture. The agricultural colleges,
experiment stations, bureaus, and COM
mission maintained by the nation and
state governments are ever teaching the
farmer that a well-balanced ration for
his cows must contain such and such
percentages of protein. carbo- hydrates,
albuminoids. and fats, and upon the de-
grees of these percentages depends the
practical worth of any particular food,
The intelligent agriculture OF today
seeks above all things else food that
will nourish every element of which a
cows body is composed. The farmer
knows and acts upon the knowledge
that his COW to do her best must have
food that will do this.
The same conditions obtain with man
as with land and animals Man becomes
worn out" i'll, inharmonious and with
out heart" for the lack of food that has
the power to nourish all the elements Ia
ais body.
The one particular food that has the
power to do all this is the shredded whole
wheat biscuit, for 1t is a perfectly bal
anced ration. Wheat as taken from
the field has every nutritive principle
and that In approximately the correct
proportions. Shredded whole wheat bis
cult retains in its manufacture all these
principles that go to make the perfect
food.
