VIII Secure Young Stock.


This improvement will be of value
not merely for itself, but because of
the department. of agriculture each
year makes an enumeration or esti-
mate of the number of live stock in
the country by correspondence with its
thousands of special agents scattered
over the United States. Now, in Jan
uary, there are few. young ,animals,and
prices of live stock are high. For both
reasons the average valuation per head
obtained by the department of agri-
culture enumeration tends to exceed
the truth. On the other hand that de-
partment confines its attention To
farms and ranges, emitting live stock
in barns and enclosures. The latter
class are worth more on the average
per head than the former. These two
sources of error thus tend to counter
balance

interest once aroused, it becomes
easier to inspire confidence.
Those who are not personally ac-

Society Deputy }. A. Ballard.


Mr.. Ballard said that while he had
not expected to be called upon, yet he
felt like the Methodist minister that
used to hold meetings at his fathers
house. The divine believed that when
a person was called upon to say some
thing for his religion, and held back,
that he was not a good Christian. So
it was with an Odd Fellow, yet he felt
something like the boy in reading
just given:
''The boy stood on. the railway track,
The train was coming fast;
The boy got off the railway track
TO let the train go past
After this apt illustration of the
speakers feeling upon the subject, he
told of the good features of Odd Eel

Objects OF Grouping.

objects of Grouping. x
The object of this grouping of live
stock is 10 furnish some basis for esti-
mating the probable increase of horses,
mules, cattle, or sheep in the near flu
ture. The widening of the inquiry to
include live stock not on farms or
ranges has the same end in view,
namely, to afford survey of the
whole live stock interests of the coun-
try, since animals are constantly pass
ing from the farms or ranges to the
barns or enclosures and back.
A table of the increase and the de-
creased OF the number of animals in
the United States for the last two
years show that since 1898 there has
been an increase of 4,677,579 in the
number of sheep and mich cows and a
decrease in the number of other cat
tile, mules and horses in the same time
of 2,249, 1858. 1t will thus be seen that
the estimated number of live stock, ex-
Y GLIDING swine, goats, asses, and bur
ros, in the country has increased over
2,500,000 in the last two years and it
must be borne in mind that these fig
ures apply to farms and ranges only.
The value of the same classes of live
stock, according to estimates from the
same source, has increased both be
cause the value per head has risen, the
net addition to the wealth of the coun-
try from this source in the last two
years being nearly one-third of bill.

How Classified.

L
The animals are to be classified by
age somewhat as the people of the Uni
ted States, but of course, with much
less detail. The special schedule clas-
sified the meat cattle into those under
one year and those over one. The sec
ond class is divided into steers, bulls
and cows, the steers being sub-divided
into those one and under two and those
over two, the latter being subdivided
into those kept for milk.
Horses and mules are classified as
those under one, those one and under
two, and those over two. Sheep are
classified into those under one and ov-
er one, with the distinction in the lat
ter class into ewes and rams and weth-
ers. The other classes of live stock,
namely asses and borros, swine and
goats, arc not classified by age.

Beyond all other issues are the
issues of orderly liberty under the
law and civic honesty" is what
Roosevelt said In discussing the
issue OF free riot raised by Croker.
Continuing, he said: Every power
of the state will be exerted to see
next Tuesday that each man in
this state shall cast his vote as he
pleases and have it counted as cast.
If Bryan has a plurality of but
one vote.in this state its count will
be protected by every force at the
command Of the executive and the
same measure of justice that we
give to otheis we shall expect to
have given us in return" Com.
pare these statements with the In.
temperate utterances of Bryan's
chief lieutenant, Richard Croker,
who is championing the cause of
riot and mob violence.

The statement made that the
commissioners have been ousted
by the supreme court decision is
false and misleading. The su.
preme court remanded the case to
the district court to be tried on its
merits. To be convicted it must
be proven that they were corrupt
in taking the fees. If they in good
faith thought they had the right to
the money, they have not violated
the law. The supreme court de.
cided nothing except that the
district court shall hear the testi.
mony and determine whether they
have corruptly taken money. The
fact that they have returned 1t
takes away all hopes the demo-
Gratis had OF securing conviction.
All -utterances to the contrary are
willful efforts to deceive the people.

This is Organism as evidenced
by his chief mouth-piece, Richard

almost unbounded and whose fol-
lowers fluid greater numbers in the
slums and among the disreputable
than anywhere else. To such
persons Cookers word is like a
frebrAnd, it gives them all the
license they want. Bryan in his
speeches has prepared the fuel for
Cookers frebrand. His appeal to
passion and prejudice, his incite-
ment of class against class, his
energy in creating discomfort are
fitting forerunners of Croker's ap-
peal for free riots. Ii any further
testimony was needed to prove
that Organism was dangerous
to the safety and we'll being of the
nation, it has been furnished by
the utterances of Croker, reinforced
by the action of Chairman Jones
and the continued performance of
William Jennings Bryan.
