Wellington on one occasion started,
Sir Herbert Maxwell tells us, at a. M,
rode to Il place 2S miles distant, here
held review and was back at the
place from which he had started for
dinner between 4 and 5 p. m., says
Goodwin Smith in The Atlantic. Hc
galloped 26 miles and back to see
whether damage had been done to
pontoon train. He rode IL miles in two
hours from Freneda to Ciudad Rodrigo,
where he dined, gave a ball and sup
ped, was in the saddle again at 8 a. ~,
galioped back to Freneda by and was
doing business again ut noon. He rose
regularly at and wrote till and after
dinner wrote again from till -.
1t must be essential to every general
and indeed to every man who is bear
ing heavy load of anxious business to
be Il good sleeper. Napoleon was Il first
rate sleeper; so was Pitt; so was
Brougham; so was MI. Gladstone; so
was Wellington.
AT Salamanca Wellington, having
given his order for the battle, said to
his aid-de-camp: Watch the French
through your glass, Fitz Roy. am
going to take rest. When they reach
that copse near the gap in the hills,
wake me-" Then he lay down and was
fast asleep in minute. In the midst
of the critical operations before Water
loo, feeling weary, he laid himself
down, put newspaper over his face
and tGpk nap.

Lamb In Either Case.

One of the editors who read the man.
uscript of Henry Thew stephenson's
PATRON Van Volkenberg" thought
that the author might be good man
to know. Accordingly he wrote q
pleasant personal letter, inviting bet
ter acquaintance, and, as one of the
tests of companionable fitness, inquired
whether the author preferred Lamb or
Milton.
Mr.. Stephenson replied, acknowledge
ing the pleasure the letter had given
him and saying:
81 do not know whether you ask if 1
like Lamb or mutton or Lamb or Mil
ton best, but in either case it's Lamb"

For Exercise Why Not walks

FOR Exercise "hy Not Walkf
The best exercise in the world Is
walking.
A person who knows how to walk In
telligently can get along without a
gymnasium. No other form Of exercise
brings so many muscles into play and
develops them so normally. The most
popular games are those In which
walking forms prominent part. Golf,
croquet and in n sense cricket and even
bicycling merely give an excuse for
walking.
Every one knows how to walk prop
erly. 1t is because of carelessness that
so many walk badly. The body should
be carried erect, the chest well out, the
head back, while the arms should
swing freely at the sides. The pace
should be regulated to ones strength.
Every one should walk fast enough
and far enough to get the body in n
comfortable glow. To get the best re-
suits from walking one should give his
undivided attention to 1t. In other
words, he should walk for the pleasure
Of 1t and not carry worries with him.
Excessive walking is injurious. New
er walk just after heavy meal or aft
ter violent exercise. And after walk
it Is well to rest for 10 or 10 minutes
before taking up severe mental work

A fine bed of mineral paint has been
found Cd the farm of Mr.. Perry Lickise
north of town and near Rawson's mill
says the Arlington News. When Mr.
Il. o. Phelps brother-in- was in Ar
lington not long since he secured a
specimen of the paint and took it with
him to Chicago where it was submitted
to expert chemists for analysis and it
was pronounced to be of a high order.
The other day two gentlemen from
Chicago called on Mr.. Lickiss and rent
ed small part of the land for S40O and
negotiations are going on for the sale of
the entire farm to the Chicago parties,
who claim if they get the land they will
employ regularly not less than fifty
men. The vein of paint was three feet
deep in one place and in another six feet
and did not reach the bottom. The
country is very rough and when devel-
oping the paint mines it may be that
deposits of other valuable ores may be
found.

Gives JOY to Da,rymen.

Stock breeders and dairymen hail
with JOY the declaration of Prof. Koch
at the international congress of medi-
cal men in London that he had demon
strated that consumption cannot be
communicated from bovine milk to the
human family. For years the COW rails
ers have fought the enforced use of the
tuberculin tests and the wholesale
slaughter of animals alleged to be af-
fected by tuberculosis for the very rea-
son advanced by the noted discover
er of phthisis bacillus. The owners of
COWS have escaped the rigid enforce
ment of this obnoxious law because of
the friendliness of the present board,
which has for member one of their
number
What Prof. Koch declares he has
proved scientifically the dairymen have
asserted with yehemence. They have
insisted that not single case of COM
municated tuberculosis could be
shown, though the Susceptibility of
milk to the germ even after it has left
the COW is well known During the
winter committee consisting of Sam.
uel l Pope, of Libertyville, E. j. Eel
lows, of st Charles, and w. A. Good
win, of Crystal Lake, was sent on row.
ing commission to secure testimony
proving or disprovlng the popular
theory. 1t is claimed that copy of
this report forwarded to the governor
was the means of securing for the stock
breeders and dairymen favorable recog-
milton which had dulled the edge of
the rigorous statutes.
With the return of DIR. Reynolds,
Chicago's health commissioner, from
the congress it is expected that an effort
will be made to secure the repeal of the
legislation which has proved so unpop-
ular among the Chicago
Chronicle.

He Raised Hanna's Taxes.

1t is Mark Hanna's turn to do some
thing out of the ordinary. The reason
is this: Tom johnson, the mayor of
Cleveland and the most potential indi-
vidual force in.that city has raised the
tax valuation Of the Cleveland city rail-
road from S6OO,OOOt to $6,233,SOO. This,
as you doubtless have observed, is a
little better than 10per cent. johnson
is waging war against corporations and
the street car line he has squarely hi.
is known as "Hsnna's Own" or the
Little Consolidated" While the Cleve-
lana board of equalization was listening
to the logic Of Mayor johnson and shap-
ing itself to agree with him, Mark Han
ma was in Canton debating the policy
of the administration. 1t may he that
he will make more in the larger deal
than he loses in the smaller one, but
nevertheless the general opinion is that
under the Johnsonian regime Mark will
have to pay for what he has been get
ting as gratuity. If there were more
Tom Johnsons there would be less
Hannaism.-Davenport Democrat.

At q meeting of the lawyers at Co

At meeting of the lawyers at Coun.
Gil Bluffs the members of the associa-
tion wore silk ribbon badges with the
words, "Iowa State Bar Association"
The Clinton Herald tells story to the
effect that when the lobby of the Grand
was well filled with the lawyers, district
judges and members of the supreme
court, a stranger was noticed standing
at one side watching the interested
groups, and he quietly remarked: "This
is the soberest lot of saloon keepers l
ever saw alta convention" That was
good one on the the legal "profesh, :"
but the Bard of Avon said, "there is
nothing in name" A word some
times has double meaning, or more
than one.

BRYAN Still Idolized

Did Mr. Blaine cease to be the most
popular idol of the republican rank and
file of the country when Bejamin Har-
rison in 1888 wrested from him the bau.
BILE of the presidency which he had been
vainly chasing for twenty years? No.
He still continued to represent the peo-
pie who loved, respected and honored
him, just as Mr.. Bryan now represents
the common people, who 7,0uO,0 900 strong,
"unawed by influence and unbribed by
gain" marched to the ballot boxes last
November and voted for him. He is
the idol tod ay, just as Blaine remained
the idol of his followers in the days that
are gone.-Augusts, Me-, New Age.

Caring for Calves,

l
AS soon as it has strength enough to
show playtulness, the calf ought to be
let out into the sunshine every day.
Nail up small box in its pen and
throw handful of feed in it every
time its mother is fed. 1t will soon
learn to look for it.
If it gets the scours boil its milk a
few times.
See that it always has hay or grass
within its reach.
Muzzle the calf before you turn it in
with the COWS, for that old saying about
the "ounce of prevention" is just as true
in 1901 as ever before.
Fasten a large harness snap up about
the height of pail on the inside Of the
calf pen. Snap this onto the pail when
the calf is fed and let her bunt.
When the weather begins to get hot
give the calf drink of cool water at
noon.
If it can have pasture by itself it
will do better than if turned in with
the COWS.
Keep the calf growing. The faster
the better. Nothing but good calf
will make good COW or good beef.
Now, because beef and butter are
high, don't go to raising two calves on
one cows milk.
Ground oats are good for calves, and
should be fed dry.
Salt should be supplied.
Sklmmilk is better than whole milk.
The paunch ought to be well developed.
Don't be afraid of pot-bellied calf.
Keep the calf's quarters clean. A
good dry bed is essential.-New York
Farmer.

Supplementary Feeds For Dry
Weather.

The whole Wess is experiencing per-
iod of dry weather that is almost without
precedent when the temperature that
accompanies it is considered. A letter
from one friend says: ave have just
had little rain at the end of twelve
days of the hottest weather we ever
had in this section. Every day of the
twelve the temperature ran up to 100
degrees or more.'
Our friend, o, IL. Edwards, propric-
Tor of Pleasanton creamery, Pleas anton,
kans as, writes under date of July g.:
sit has not rained here for three
months, and everything is in very
bad shape. Some are shipping all their
hogs and cattle to market. Cows are
selling very low. If it does not rain
soon shall be compelled to close my
creamery by the twentieth"
II is during such time that the man
who took time by the forelock and
planted some crops for green forage to
feed during the dry season has the
satisfaction of knowing that his COWS
are not hungry and that his income has
not stopped because of lack of rain.
Even the man who did not do this
may remedy the evil to some extent by
feeding those feeds that are cheap
and at the same time rich in milk max
ing elements. OF course, dry feed is
never as good as green and succulent
pasture or soiling crops, but it will go a
good way toward staving off the effects
of drought Gluten feeds are the best
and cheapest concentrates that can be
used at this time to tide over the lack
of grass, and these ara cheap and easily
secured. 1t is not worth while to allow

Save All The Forage,

That should be the motto of every
farmer in the United States, for all the
forage, including all the growing corn
of the year, should be harvested and
safely secured against the storms of the
fall and winter. The failure of the hay
crop in Missouri, Arkansas, Kansas and
parts of Nebraska, and the light hay
cropiin nearly all the other states, will
cause an enormous demand for all the
forage that can be harvested IN Iowa
and other states. 1t is true that the
Iowa hay crop is splendid in some To-
calities, but it is certain that hay and
other forage will command higher
prices than resulted from the drouth of
1891 The 1894 drouth covered much
smaller area than the drouth of 1901.
Missouri farmers had good crops in
1884, and a large proportion of their
surplus corn was sold to Iowa farmers,
a considerable portion of it being ship.
ped into this country. Missouri will
haveno surplus of any farm crop this
year, but on the contrary will have to
purchase grain and forage largely in
other states if it can be obtained. So it
is with Kansas, Arkansas, Texas and
some portions of Nebraska and other
states, and the end of the drouth and
extreme hot weather is not yet.
These facts are of importance to all
farmers everywhere, and of still greater
Importance to the general prosperity of
all the American people. tits probable
that the farmers who harvest all their
hay and fodder, and save all their straw
will more than make good all their
losses from the drouth. Cut all the
slough grass, and all the other grass on
the farms, for all forage will command
higher prices this winter and early next
spring than have ever before been paid
in the state. That much is now certain,
and every farmer should take advan-
tage of his opportunity to cut forage
and safely stack all the hay and straw
on his farm. Good fields of cora stalks
will be worth more for forage than all
the corn usually produced. This ap-
peal is made in time for the farmers to
give It full consideration and prompt
action when the proper time arrives
