ALL IN ONE MACHINE.
Governor Has Not Hesitated to
Abuse State Institutions.
FOR FRACTIONAL END.
One of the Most Serious Accusations
that Has Been Brought Against
La Toilette.

One of the most serious accusations
mat can be brought against Gov. La
roulette is his prostitution of the svarious
state institutions to fractional ends. In
previous administrations, when the men
IN charge of the state government were
ordinary men without pretensions to q
greater degree of holiness than their fell
low citizens, it was the custom to leave
the management of the many state in
StltutlonS to the board of control without
interference from the executive office.
governors there were who were par
tlsan and disposed to do all they could
70 advance the interests of their party
put they recognized certain limits beyond
Which they did not go. The state of
Wisconsin had for years been building
up Il system of public institutions that
We're the pride of every citizen. Her
penltentiary was a model one under the
personal charge of one of the most emil
hent prison men in the United States,
VINO after years of training had risen to
the highest point in his profession. Her
system of caring for the insane and
feeble minded had been evolved from the
olu mad house system and, administered
ny competent men, was so admirably
adapted to provide for the mentally af-
allenlsts from all parts of the country
to study it. The Wisconsin system of
caring for the insane has since been
adopted in at least dozen other states.
Not only the insane, but the blind, the
deaf and dumb and the orphans were
equally we'll cared for. Internationally
the state had gradually built up one Of
the largest and best nonsectaran uni
versities in the world.

Old Politicians Not Saints.

The old style politician was not a saint
he did not even pretend to be-but he
at least respected the public educational,
charitable and penal institutions and did
not attempt to make use of them for
partisan purposes. An occasional APP
pointment of Il clerk in the state hospi-
tai or penitentiary was about as far as
any governor previous to Robert NJ. La
Toilette cared to go.
Since 1901 the state institutions have
been revolutionized. The new governor
was scarcely located in the executive
mansion before he began to make use of
every department. of the government he
could control not only for partisan but
for factional ends The state board of
control from an Independent body be-
came, as has APPLY been described, ''the
state board under control" Its mem
bers were compelled to yield unquestion-
ing obedience to the ambitious dictator.

individuality they We're replaced as fast
as their terms expired by men who could
be depended upon to do what they were
told. Then began a systematic cleaning

BRILLIANT GYMNASTIC FEATS.
Annual Exhibition of Independent
TurnVerein Pupils.

The most brilliant and spectacular gym
nastic exhibition ever given by the pupils of
the Independent Turnverein was witnessed
many people as could find standing room in
the tbeater. The entertainment was a sue
cess from start to finish, each number on
the programme being we'll applauded, the
various classes showing the expert train
ing of Oscar l.. Ruther, physical and
gymnastic director OF the TurnVerein. In
tricate drills were combined with exhibit
lions of grace and strength and each mem
Der Of the various classes helped TO make
the programme success.
The most interesting feature of the en-
tertainment was the exhibition or fencing
by the ladies' fencing class, ending with a
bout between Mr.. Ruther and one OF the
young women. When the class first
marched on the stage carrying their fOils
and masks the crowd cheered. Their first
exhibition showed the various thrusts and
parties in fencing, followed by grand Sd-
lutte and assault, in which the members of
the class were paired and INDUCED in real
fencing.
The four grand pyramids, in which lS2
young men and boys participated, concluded
the programme and attracted as much ap-
plauSe as the fencing class. Six members
OF the mems class gave a brilliant electrical
club swinging exhibition. All of the classes
were well drilled and the club and wand
exercises showed special training. The
horizontal bar exhibition by members Of
the mems class was also one of the inter-
esting features of the programme

friends went TO the clubrooms. corner Ohio

The flint or Indurata varieties of corn are
sold under many names and are usually not
very pure. However. all of the hard corns
are grown TO the northward-that is, north

thrive. The other field variety is indentata

other variety is much softer in texture,
usually has from twelve to twenty rows
instead Of eight TO twelve, ears rather
short but large in diameter. There is little.
If any, difference in the feeding value of the
two varieties However. the flint corns are
not suited to feed on the ear or shelled to
cattle or horses, while the dent varieties are
relished quite well because of the softer
nature of the kernels. Seeds grown at the
North ripen earlier when moved southwark,

IL had without meters.
Howard Foulke spoke next for the af-
hrmative, basing his argument on the fact
that the people wasted gas when 1t was
first sold and now the company should be
protected by the meter system. which he
said had proved successful in other cities.
He also laid great stress on the fact that
the majority OF people would be benefited
by the use of meters, as the company would
give all the gas il had.
FrankwCod Williams next took the floor
in opposition TO the meter system and made
the best argument during the session. He
declared that meters should not be allowed

charging for gas not used. He strongly at

Why Insecticides Fail.

Prof. S. n. Dory
With the approach OF spring, when farm
ers will need TO use insecticides quite gem
orally on their crops, a word of warning
should be given to them because of the
fraudulent attempt made by some manu-
facturers to dilute these mixtures and sell
them ct greater profit. The dilution Of
the well-known- insecticides has been car
Tied on in some places so that they are
too weak TO do any good. and the result is
that farmers report failures with them
The Department OF Agriculture and the
different state experiment stations have
spent considerable time and money in ex-
perimenting with various Doisons TO de-
stroy destructive Insects, and in all cases
these insecticides have been published so
that farmers could mix them Recent in
vestigations by the department showed that
Of some hundred samples OF these insecti-
cideS sold on the market by manufacturers
a large proportion Of them We're adulterated
so that they were ineffective. The results
of this analysis show the danger that the
farmers face in purchasing insecticides
from unknown and irresponsible firms
There is one sure way 10 avoid any dan
ger of adulteration and thus teopardizinc
the crops. All the insecticides can be mixed
at home by the farmers, and by securing
the different ingredients direct from the
reliable stores and following the formulas
given by rhe department there will be no
danger of mistakes. AS an illustration OF
this a recent bulletin published by the de-
partment gives careful and accurate in
formation relative 10 the use OF carbon BIZ
sulphide as an insecticide. This IS one OF
the best and most persuasive Of poisons
employed for destroying a great number OF
plant enemies, and every farmer should
acQuaint himself with its use. 1t is OF Pc
