In the first year after settling on a
farm far removed from the settle

long and severe, and their store OF pro
visions ran low. Il was a long dis
lance to the nearest base OF supplies,
and Communication with the outside
world had been cut OF. Indians In
the neighborhOod one night broke into
the granary where the wheat was
stored and stole a quantity. In doing
this a large amount Of broken glass
became mixed with the wheat which
the Indians left, so for many days
amidst much merry storytelling and
many a Joke and laugh, in spite Of the
serious situation, the family gathered
about a large table In their living
room and spent the short winter days
picking over the wheat, kernel by ker-
mel, in order 70 free it from the pieces
OF glass. For this wheat stood between
them and starvation, and none OF its
precious kernels must be lost. Their
stock Of -four had long since wasted
away, as had most OF their food sup
plies, so they boiled and ate the
wheat without grinding. Relief reached
them Just In time to prevent a sad
ending to the experience"

View. of /. Missouri, statesman.

The Hon. Champ Clark, one OF the
most illustrious Democrats in Pike
county, Missouri, was found In New
Orleans the other day by reporter of
the Times Democrat. 1t seems that the
Pike Pitt has lccturcd on Picturesque
Public Men 113 times. "in twenty
four states and territories" and he
still lives. Naturally the talk of Mr..
Clark to the reporter played about
picturesque public men. First, great
est, freshest Of them all, the Hon. Joe
Bailey of Gainesville, the janitor OF
the constitution. 1t warns the blood
TO hear one great man praising an
other.
Bailey will be President OF the
United States some day. Every one
of sense admires him except those who
are jealous of him."
Mr.. Bailey can afford to say of Mr..
Clark what Mr.. Clark says of him.
Every one of sense admires Mr.. Clark
except those who are Jealous of him,
and Mr.. Clark's chances of being
President are about as good as Mr..
Bailey's, except that the Texan is of
tenderer years.
OF n slightly elder soldier, not Il bet.
ter, the pride Of Pike says.
"As for William Jennings Bryan, he
will either be nominated three years
hence by the Democratic national con.
vention or he will dictate the name of
the man who will be nominated. He
is young enough to run at seven diff.
ferent presidential elections. / really
expect to see him elected to the pres.
idcncy."
Having thus conferred the presi.
| dency upon two picturesque public
men, Mr.. Clarl: felt at liberty to be
picturesque himself. "How do you re-
gard the decision of the Supreme
Court in the insular cases?" he was
asked. Let the myrmidons and minions
of Imperialism ponder and trcmble n,
his reply:
''Thcre isn't n lawyer in the United
States that is fit to try replevin case
about a hog in n court of the justic,
of the peace who does not know that
decision is preposterous. Instead OF
settling the muddle, the decision itseII

Growing animals and those giving
milk allow 90 to 7s per cent Of the fer
tility Of the food to pass Into tho ma

fertilizing elements re for a part of
tho constituents Of milk and Of the

plants obtained from air and water.
into salable meat. wool and milk prod

Of the food II left in the manure for
tho farmer to use in raising other
crops to be used similarly. Have VIC
not, therefore. lost the link connecting
