WHO JACKSON is.

When Senator Hansbrough intro.
duced his amendment to the Alaskan
civil code bill, providing that aliens
could not locate or hold claims at Cape
Nome, an attorney named Jackson
emitted from Seattle a below to the
effect that Senator Hansbrough has "a
personal interest in these claims. The
Fargo Forum sayss with regard tt
| Jackson:
A Forum representative stumbled
onto a man recently who intimated
that he knew something about the
history of j. w. Jackson, who managed
in some way to get himself into the
eastern papers last week, in a rather
silly endeavor to injure the reputa:
ton of Senator Hansbrough. The
Forums authority states he knows ex.
actly what he is talking about. He
was there at the time aid says he
knows about the utter contempt which
the respectable people of Alaska held
for this man Jackson, and the despic-
able career he is said to have pursued
during his halycon days as United
States court commissioner, under
President Cleveland, at Fort Wrangle,
Alaska.
10 begin with, our informant states
that Jackson is a typical hot-headed
southern f~re-eating democrat from
old Virginia. During his official life
he was said to have been mixed up in
all sorts of unsaVory affairs and his
continual association with equally I'M
sayory characters of the sporty class
made him very obnoxious to honest
and decent people in Alaska. He was
one of those pompous sort of fellows
and in many cases assumed himself
to be a law unto himself" and. as is
wei known, his continue1 supporters
and boon companions were gamblers.
of high and low degree, who associated
with scarlet women. This pompous
bIue-blooded old Virginian, looked up
on republicans as people only fit for
the deepest depths of sheol. and the
republican party he considered only
as the political home Of traitors. He
was always supremacy happy when he
could embarrass and ridicule the re-
publican party. He became so impla-
cably spiteful and malicious towards
his pollcticaI opponents that the old
V~lrginian's mouthings came to be
treated as burlesques and mere yapor-
lngs. Our informant says that Sem
ator Hansbrough won't suffer in the
least among his associates at Wash
1ngton, for democrats and republicans
alike hold their noses whenever jack
sons name is mentioned.

The Great Northern, which is the

AS to the liberal education which
the railroads are giving the public in
regard to new farming lands in the
northwest, this paragraph from an
advertising book will show:
To-day the people r wondering
why they did not avail themselves of
the liberal terms offered by our gov
eminent and secure a farm. Twenty,
yes, ten years from now these same
people and many others like them will
be equally surprised that they did not
take advantage of the opportunities
offered today. It's written in char
acters so plain that. he who runs may
read that farming land is n of the
few commodities in this country that
must inevitably show a rapid increase
in value. People in the congested
centers are finding it nor and nor
difficult to earn their bread and butter.

The Northern Pacific is doing for
the far northwest what the Sante Fe
is accomplishing for the southwest.
1t is estimated that the road has
opened or brought new development
to twenty towns within the last year,
making an increase in population of

is pursuing is to issue regular and au-

OF DEWEY.

An accurate and trustworthy Wash

Wellman of the Chicago Times-Her-
aid, ascribes Admiral DeWey's presi-
Dental candidacy to a resentment
against President Mckinley, because.
the latter could not pay the admiral
$4,000 salary BIS a member Of the.
Philippine commission, in addition 10
MS salary as admiral. The law. pro-
ysdes that no officer shall draw salary
Sfsom two positions. Consequently it
vas impossible TO pay the admiral a
second salary.
But Admiral DeWey, according to
Mr. Wellman, lost his temper when
he discovered that the president would
not pay him without a special sane
ton Of congress, and said the presi-
dent had robbed him OF his due.

Dewey believes to be his due. He

A certain amount of grain feed is
needed to grow hogs with the greatest
profit and still more is needed to fatten
and fit them for market, but it should
be feeds which the hogs harvest for
themselves in the field says S. M.
Tracy in Farmers Revie,o. Pork can
not be made economically when all, or
even larger proportion, of the feed
comes from the crib or the mill. The
hog is an omnivorous animal and needs
"roughage" and fresh green feed for
his best health and growth and to pro-
duce meat of the best quality. When
young his grain feed should be such as
will furnise material for bone and mus
Gle and not such as will produce an ex-
cess of fat; while, az the animal APP
proaches maturity, fat-producing foods
should be given more literally. No
one kind Of grain feed can be used
economically from weaving until the
full-grown animal is slaughtered and
there should be gradual change from
the heterogeneous, matchmaking food
given to the pig to the carbonaceous,
fat-making food, which is more profit
able for the last few weeks before kill
ing. The young animal must have
good bone and muscle before it can
carry the heavy load of fat desirable for
the butcher or develop the strength,
vigor and health necessary in good
breeding animal.

Manure Spreaders.

We want 20 add our testimony to the
value of the manure spreader. We
have been using a spreader for nearly
seven years and consider it one Of the
most useful and valuable implements
on the farm. How any farmer who
has one and whose land is benefited by
manure can be indifferent to their use
or value we cannot understand. We
make annually from 600 TO 800 loads of
manure and use nearly all of it, as
top dressing for wheat or meadows.
Knowing that in our case we get better
results and quicker cash returns when
used as top dressing than when plow-
ed under, in fact we do not believe in
plowirg under manure unless it can
be put on the ground several months
in advance Of the blowing, but when
used for top dressing results can be
seen at once and are positive demon
stration of the value of manure all
through the growing season, at harvest
and for several seasons to follow.
We will give one instance in our own
experience: A h,ld OF wheat of thir-
ty-fve acres was top dressed at the rate
of sixteen spreader loads per acre, ex-
cept some five or six acres that we did
not have manure enough to cover.
This was the richest portion Of the field
and we thought needed manure the
least. AT harvest time the field yield.
ed twenty-three bushels wheat pei
acre and all who saw it were satisfied
that the part not top dressed would moi
exceed eight bushels per acre and the
difference so far as we know WAS Who'll
ly owing to the top dressing, done with
the spreader in way that cannot bt
approached by hand work. Such re-
suits are convincing and no amount o
talk can get around them. There il
simply no comparison in the quality o
work done by the spreader and tina
done by hand. We have clay sol
that responds quickly to the applica
ton OF manure. Conditions differ ant
spreader might not be so valuable t.
every one as to us, but for any farme
who raises wheat and grass and save
and applies the manure made on tn
farm in business-like way we regarC
the manure spreader as one of the YER
best investments he can make, if prop
erly used.-Cor. Farmers Guide.

Selection Of Brood SOWs.

The selection of brood sows is an i'm
portant matter. They should have
heavy bone and good length. 1t is bet
ter that she should be a little on the
coarse order than that she should be
too fine. The male may be more COM
pactly built, but both should be good
individuals. To try to raise good hogs
from inferior stock would be like build
ing house on the sand, says writer
in Prairie Farmer. The SOW should
be at least nine monthe old whom bred
and twelve months old would be bet.

else. If she 10 to farrow in the winter
or early spring, when grass is scarce,
she should have liberal supply of
shipstuff or bran, or a mixture of half
bran and half shipstuff, given in slop
made as thick as it will pour well. This
is very good to feed once q day for at
least two months before farrowing. If
the sows are fed in this way they will
have good, strong pigs, that will never
need pig forceps used on them. Per-
haps the worst drawback to the poor
man is the lack of suitable farrowing
pens.
He looks over all his agricultural and
swine papers for plans, and finds lots
of them, and good ones, too, but they
all cost more money than he has for
that purpose. That is just the condi-
ton was in, so studied out plan to
suit my pocket book. l selected a

To Prevent the Growth Of Horns,

The general method adopted to &C
complish this is to apply to the incipi
ent horns caustic potash either in the
stick form or in solution. When done
by person skilled in its application
the result is entirely satisfactory; but
as most of this business is now being
done, or attempted to he done, by per-
sons of no experience or observation,
and with no information on the subject
other than the little gained by reading
an item about it in some paper, very
bad work is too apt to be made of it, as
can be seen by viewing many herds
of COWS the country over which have
been operated upon by this method
when the the cows were calves.
The operations not having been cor
rect and effectual, deformed horns of
all shapes and pointing In various di-
rections can be seen dis6guring the
heads of the COWS that bear them. In
the attempt to dishorn, the germ of the
horn was only mutilated, causing sub
sequent growth to be erratic and often
grotesque. There is quick, easy and
effectual way to stop the growth Of
horns. When the calf is about a
month old take a sharp penknife, run
the blade under the incipient horn and,
with very little cutting, it can be
lifted out bodily. The wound should
be then dressed as any other wound
Nothing can be more satisfactory.

Trouble with the Cabbages.

Cabbages are subject to several dis
eases, some of which are severe.
Trouble is especially apt to occur with
the late crop-those grown for sauer
kraut and winter storage.
Probably the worst two of these cab
bage maladies are the club-root and
the black rot. Both have been found
in Vermont gardens, and both are
threatening to become widespread.
The Vermont experiment station,
which makes specially of investigat-
ing all such troubles, has been making
experiments in the treatment of these
diseases, and has issued small pamph-
let setting forth The facts as far as now
known.
Club-root is q curious malformation
of the roots, which ruins the plants by
preventing the absorption of water and
foods. 1t was probably introduced in
to this country from Europe, and is
spreading. 1t has been observed in
Vermont only recently. Clubbing of
roots is due to their invasion by para
site which stimulates them to abnormal
growth. This parasite once established
in the soil, is very difficult to extermi-
nate. The parasite is perpetuated over
winter by spores which are formed in
vast numbers in the dubbed roots.
These germs pass uninjured into the
manure of stock fed upon dubbed
roots, and the use of such infected ma
nure is one of the commonest ways of
introducing the germs into the soil.
Another way is with roots transplanted
from infested soil.
The remedies recommended are
briefly as follows. a. Remove all
dubbed roots from the field and de.
stroy them by burning or burial, or
boil them if to be fed to stock. (2)
Plow infected soil deeply. (3.) Ro-
tate crops. a. Suppress all weeds of
the mustard family. (5.) Apply lime,
1915 bushels per acre, in autumn be-
fore planting cabbages or turnips.
Black rot OF cabbages has been OBJ
served in numerous Vermont fields. 1t
is caused by bacteria, which invade the
vessels of leaves and stem. The dis
eased plants are weakened or die of a
dry rot. The blackened condition OF
the invaded veins is the surest signs OF
the disease. 1t is not to be confused
with the common wet rot. The germs
pass the winter in the soil, or in the
manure, if diseased plants are fed to
stock. They re-enter the cabbage
plants through the water pores or in
sect punctures.
The treatment recommended for the
black rot may be summarized as fol-
lows: a. Rotation of crops. CO.
Care in selection of manure. 90
Suppression of cabbage insects. a.
Removal and destruction of spotted
leaves in the early stages of the dis
ease aud of entire plants If the stem is
invaded.-Vermont Experiment Sta
