Position of the Granqe.

The National Grange, which held its
annual meeting at Lansing, Mich, last
week, adopted the report of its COM
mittee on good of the order declaring
that every possible thing should be done
ito put women in possession of all those
political rights and property interests
that the spirit of modern civilization de-
mands."
The report further declares that the
vice of intemperance should be checked
and the crime of easy divorces, which
has made this country too conspicuous
in the eyes of the world, be made impos-
sble
The duty of the Grange was declared
TO be 10 impress uron the farmer that he
Is an American citizen with political
duties to perform.

Notes for Farmers.

Lots of farmers Instead of feeding
stock for production feed them through
the whole winter for reduction.
Don't allow your horse to 90 too long
without shoeing.
Those who consider milking irksome
will never make good dairymen.
A badly firing shoe is to "A horse rs
painful as a tight boot to his owner.
1t is not always the man with the
biggest herd of cows who clears the
most money.
Brush the udder and surrounding
parts just before milking, and wipe them
with a clean, damp cloth or sponge.
If rock salt Is kept in the yard where
the cows can lick it every day, there is
no danger that they will get too much
at once.
1t is a parody on cleanliness to try to
strain filth out of milk when it might
have been obviated by the exercise Of
the most ordinary precautions.
Kicking a COW that is lying down may
make her get up more quickly, but it
will not induce her to give any more
milk.
Scrub the churn with a corn cob and
sal soda, sand or ashes. Wash clean
and the butter will not stick to It..
Washing is better than scalding; but
don't wash the butter.
Tie your horse so that he can lie down
comfortably at night. Ii is a practice
with some grooms to tie so he can't lie
down, TO save work in cleaning him
next morning.
Ii takes an honest man to sell n COW or
a horse. Too many are satisfied TO tell
all the good qualities of the An NAL they
fer for sale. leaving the purch ser 10
fad out the bad himself. Bur gains
made dishonesty are Il positive loss 10
the man who receives them.
Should cows refuse 10 eat turnips or
mangels. at first allow them to become
salt hungry aud then give small bits of
tbs roots dipped in salt. Should this
fail roll the pieces in corn.meal or bran.
Dry leaves make the best kind of bed
ding for stock. They prevent drafts
along the floor Rake them rs soon as
they begin to fall and put under shelter
for winter use. In the spring they will
return To the soil AS fertilizer.
Masking roots on a n'0r with a
pnuIder will make them safe To feed TO
stock.
A hog fed on corn alone will soon
| become cOustlpated and frverish and
susceptible TO disease. Hogs fed on
| slop IF bran and shorts twice day will
consume more corn than boys that are
! fed only corn Roots and sorghum will
also prove beneficial. Salt aud wood
ashes should always be furnished, IS
/ pecially in winter, as they have ten
dtncy TO prevent indigestion and worm.

Foot and Mouth Disease.

Although the entire force of inspectors
of the Massachusetts cattle commission
has been working hard for the past two
weeks hoping to stamp out the foot and
mouth disease, it is admitted that the
disease has become almost epidemic
in that state. Many new cases have
been reported in towns of eastern and
central Massachusetts. The inspectors
as soon as an affected herd is discovered
at once establish quarantine and no milk
is allowed to be sent away from that
herd.
The last epidemic in England some 20
years ago, cost that country over 81 000,-
600, while it took SIS 600 900 to stamp out
a similar epidemic in France. The great
increase in the number of cases during
the past week is causing apprehension
among the State officials.

poned until next year and this action was rati.
fed by the State Central Committee on We'd
nesday At the latter meeting there was a
rather full attendance and many prominent
Democrats from all parts of the State were
present also. The sentiment was unanimous
for a vigorous and energetic campaign in every
congressional district, and for the nomination
of able and clean candidates, who will inspire
hope and confidence.
BALTIMORE CITY WARDS.
The Committee fixed the number of dele
gates of the 18th and 18th wards of Baltimore

What win Be the Response ?


The country was appalled, at the "Billion
Dollar Congress" and the next year elected
a Democratic House of Representatives The
Democrats straightway began an attempt to
reduce tariff taxation. The Trusts and Com
bines then came to the rescue of the Repub-s
lican party, because reduction of tarifftaxes
would deprive them of the opportunity to ex-
tort millions of excessive profits from the
American people. They could we'll afford,
as business proposition, to contribute sew
eral millions of dollars to the Republican
campaign fund, and with the fund so contrib
uted the next election was bought.
The next record of the Republican party
was appropriations amounting to a billion and
a halfof dollars. Still backed by the Trusts
and Combines, the Republican leaders did
not attempt to Justify or explain the huge APP
preparations, but cody snapped their fingers
in the faces Of the people and declared this
is "BlIion and half country"
AT the late session of Congress over bill
lion of dollars were appropriated, and the in
dications are that another billion dollars will
be appropriated at the next session. What
response will the people make to 1.-TWO
Billion Dollar Congress n Will their pride
be touched to be told this is Two Bill
lion Dollar Country? Will they go to
the polls in November and sanction the ex-
trayagance indicated by the present Congress
by eecting another Republican House Of
II II. l. IA
elect a House that will retrench expenses,
reduce tariffs so that the Trusts and Combines
cannot levy tribute from the American people
in order to compete in foreign markets
The election of Republican House in
November will be an endorsement ofthe waste
of public money by the present Congress, and
an endorsement Of high protective tariff,
which enables Trusts and Combines to fatten
off the people and thrive.

A Rival to Baltimore.

The ADVOCATE did not view with satisfac-
ton the sale of the Western Maryland Rail-
road. 1t was about the only transportation
line in the State that was owned by Mary
landers, and we believed it should have been
continued to be controlled by home people.
We knew it was the best trade artery leading
into Baltimore, and had it been held by the
city and Col. Hood, the President, not been
hampered by threatened sale, the road could
have been developed and extended SO as to
make it remunerative investment to the city
and other stockholders and increase the trade
of Baltimore.
But a sentiment to sell the road was worked
up in Baltimore, principally by those expect
ing to profit by sale, and a sale was ineyita-
BILE. When that stage was reached the ADvo-
CATE favored sale to the Wabash system, for
various reasons. The Wabash system has
purchased the road and secured possession,
and is considering the establishment ola deep
water terminal at Drum Point, in Calvert
county, just inside the mouth of the Patuxent
river. This is the finest harbor near the
Chesapeake in the State, land locked and
with deph of water sufficient for the largest
ships Furthermore, Drum Point is about
ninety miles nearer the sea than Baltimore.
shortening time and distance to foreign ports.
Pilot charges will be avoided and labor will
be cheaper.
Should the Wabash decide to build termi.
nal facilities at Drum Point, Baltimore will
suffer severely, and then Baltimoreans will
realize, perhaps, that mistake was made in
selling the Western Maryland Railroad.
And it is further said that friendly rela.
tons are being established between the Wa
bash and the Reading road, whereby the Wa.
bash will have terminal facilities at Philadel-

Roosevelt's Newborn Zeal.

Although Congress was in session seven
months, and bill in restraint of Trusts
was introduced in the House by Congressman
LittleHeld, of Maine, the first day of the
session, the bill was not even reported by
the judiciary Committee. In view of this
the zeal of President Roosevelt manifest
ed since Congress adjourned on the control
and distraint of Trusts appears only an
effort to stem the tide setting in against the
Republican party. The President will devote
most of the summer and fall to campaign
against Trusts, but his sincerity will be doubted
when be allowed seven months to pass with
out making any effort to have bills passed to
restrain them. He was sufficiently interested
in reciprocity with Cuba to make the matter
a subject of special message to Congress.
He only had his interest in the restraint of
Trusts aroused since the failure of Congress
to act has called forth severe criticisms from
the press
