Senator Trewin Considered Good Ma.
From tho Cedar Rapide Republican.


From tho Cedar Rapide Republican.
Senator Trewin continues to figure in
the gubernatorial speculations. There
is no young man in Iowa politics that
has given promise of more strength OF
independence in all public affairs.
Senator Trewin is good material for any
office within the gift Of the people.
The reports that he had announced his
candidacy, however, are untrue. He
has been urged to announce it and he
has DEVELOPED many followers who will
be for him, whether he authorizes them
to act or not. Mr.. Trewin's strength
would seem to lie in being a recipient
instead of q seeker after office.

LIE IN STATE IN THE CAPITOL
Citizens and Soldiers of Indiana Paw
Tribute to the Memory of
the Dead General.

indianapolis, Ind, March 1S.-Es-
corted by three regiments of infantry
and a battalion of artillery, the full
strength of the Indiana national guard,
the remains of eN-President Benjamin
Harrison Saturday We're taken from
his late home on North Delaware
street to the state capitol, where they
laid in state until 10 O'clock Saturday
night, when they We're removed once
more to his home. In most mstinted
measure did the citizens of Indiana
reveal the esteem in which they held
the dead eN-president. The body was
borne through the streets between
deep lines OF silent people, every head
was bowed, every hat was off and there
was deep silence broken only by
the slow tramp of the marching men,
ana the quick clatter of horses
feet III the marching column.
Soldiers Arrive During the Night.
All night long the people of Indiana
ana the soldiers of the state poured
into indianapolis. Every train dis
charged hundreds of visitors, while
special after special steamed in loaded
DOWN with company after company
OF militia. All night long the scuff OF
soldiers feet sounded in the streets
ana by sunrise in the morning three
full regiments were quartered in the
state house. The hour set for the
formation of the parade from the state
house to the Harrison home to re-
ceive the body and return with it to
the state house was 1920, and prompt
~ at the time set. the infantry and ar
tillery were drawn up in Washing
ton street on the south side of the state
house. AT 1O:45 Br!gadier General w.
j. Mckee, commanding the state
troops, ordered the advance and quick
ly wheeling into line the infantry
poured In long stream along Wash
ingtOn street on its way to the house.
Streets Full of Marching Men.
Shortly before this a string of car
riages containing Governor Durbin
and other officials of the state had
started by another route and numer-
Gus other uniformed bodies had gone,
We're going and preparing to go to the
place of rendezvous in front of the
Harrison residence. The streets in
every direction We're full of marching
bodies and the crash of bands was
heard almost in every street that af-
forded access to Delaware street. The
parade proper was formed after the
arrival at the Harrison home. Despite
the fact that all the preliminary ar
rangements had been most carefully
made there was some confusion and
delay before everything was in read
mess for the return march to the cap
itol. A committee composed of Cen
eral Lew Wallace, representing the
army; Admiral George Brown, the
navy, and Judge John Fl. Baker of the
United States court, the civil power Of
the state, was delegated to take charge
of the body from the time it left the
house until it was returned there late
at night.

Notes About Fruit.

In the market buyers sometimes pre-
fer small but fully ripeued Strawberries
TO larger ones picked too green.
The grape is considered the most
healthful of all fruits. Every one who
has n garden, a yard or wall can grow
grapes.
In starting a young orchard look af-
ter the trees often, and wherever limb
is found crossing another limb cut it
out
Plum trees should be sprayed with
Bordeaux mixture, but il should be
weaker than for apples, or it win burn
the foliage.
Apple. pear and plum trees should be
planted ia every poultry yard. They
viii afford shade for the fowls and the
poultry viii destroy many Insects.
Plum trees do net generally require
as much pruning as apple trees. Prun-
ing should be done rs early in the
spring as possible. before the sap
starts.
There is no section of country where
some variety of every kind of fruit
will not do well. Experiment with
fruit until you ind varieties suited TO
Your locality.
Most plums should be picked for

thoroughly ripe Even for home use
they are better just before they are per-

You can't get out of chair without

The value of the cabbage as food Tor
stock may be summed up as strong in
two points, the large amount that can
be grown upon an acre of soil and its
suceulency, which makes ii milk-pro-
ducing food easily digested. But 1t re-
quires strong soil aud good cultivation,
does moi keep well for winter use I'M
less pitted where it will be frozen until
spring, and even then having but a
short season, while if stumps and any
decayed leaves are fed 1t is almost i'm
possible to prevent 1t imparting rank,
unpleasant flavor to the milk and but
ter, or even to the meat, unless its use
is discontinued two or athtee weeks be-
fore the slaughterihg. As regards the
nutritive value Professor Johnston in
Agricultural Chemistry estimated sew
enty pounds Of cabbage to have about
the same value as four pounds of oil
cake, twelve pounds of pea straw, six
teen pounds clover hay. twenty pounds
of meadow hay, 40 pounds of oat
straw or 120 pounds of turnips. This
last we think he bases upon the fiat or
English turnip. which are not as nu-
tritious as the rutabaga. The value of
the cabbages, as of the roots, is best
found when small amount is given
along with coarse, dry fodder and
limited amount of grain.-Massachu
sets Ploughman.

start Horses slowly.

When the horse has been fed aud is
taken out to work, it should be started
in to labor rather easily to get the most
work at the least inconvenience TO the
horse The reason for this is not hard
to find II is simply that during the
feeding time the organs are getting
themselves into condition for digestion
and are possibly even digesting the
feed. \ large quantity of blood is call
cd away from the other members a2d
is poured irto the vessels about the
stomach. This blood must all be with
drawn when the horse begins to work
and be supplied to the muscular or
gans where it is most needed This
change cannot be done all at onceA 1t
requires little time for the blood to
reach the physical demands. If the
blood has time to make the change by
moderate starting ai' will be we'll If
not, then there Is temporary exhaus-
ton from which it may require hours
