1.-THE first thing is to give the national

is power. Having gotten the power, gen.

And let me say again and again and again,
that you will not. get the millennium.
you will be In position to make long
strides In the direction: of securing a
juster and fairer and more Intelligent and
more honest management OF those cor
porations both as regards the general
public and as regards the relationships
among themselves: When you have the
power, I should most earnestly advocate
that it be used with the greatest wis
dom and self-restraint. The first thing
would be to find out the facts. For that
purpose I am absolutely clear that we
need publicity, not as a favor from any
one corporation, but as a matter Of right.
The mere fact of the publicity itself will
show that some of the alleged evils are
imaginary. And, finally, in making evil
dent the remaining faults, those that are
not imaginary, and are cured by the
light Of day itself, 1t will give us ar
intelligent proposition as to the methods
to take in getting at them"

Demand for Good Horses.
Journal OF Agriculture.


The excessive drain upon the supply
of horses for military purposes i'm the last
few years has practically depleted this
country's number Of good horses. and
there exists today an actual shortage
which cannot be made good for several
years The demand has been chiefly for
heavy hoFses-those suitable for cavalry
and for dragging heavy provision trains.
Horses that would answer the require
ments OF these purposes have been shipped
TO South Africa. Manila and Europe in
great quantities. II has been impossible
TO meet all requirements because of the
lack OF suitable animals. The demand
now Is for heavy draft horses. good ami
mails for horseback riding. and even for
roadsters. Breeding and rearing of any
OF these must return good profits TO the
farmer or owner. Horsefiesh in the last
few years seems TO have recovered from
the low depression ii reached few years
ago. Then the animals reached the lowest
stage or decentralization possible, but the
losses sustained by owners OF horses then
were not wholly an evil. There was some
good that came out Of 1t. Not the least
OF these was the cleaning out of all the
poor and inferior animals that had been
accommodating in the country. Years be-
fore the depression prices for horses had
been so good that people paid eXorbitant
sums for pretty inferior horsefiesh. Breed
erS found that they could sell aihlosA any =
thing they raised. and i'm a few years the
country was flooded with poor horses. The
depression I'm prices cleaned out these in
ferior animals. Some were shot. others
froze to death on the western prairies,
and some were shipped away. Only the
man with good horses decided that he
would not sacrifice his stock. and he chung
10 his favorite animals.
Now the country is actually depleted of
good horses. and there never was bet
ter time TO breed. The type Of animal
that Is needed should be an incentive TO
every owner OF good horse flesh TO raise
some for market. Poor horses will never
again pay in this country. II the present
boom continues IL will never include the
inferior animals which few years ago
found a market. Ii one cannot raise ami
mails suitable TO do their work well in the
world il will be better TO abandon the
business entirely. The farmer with fair
intelligence who has good stock TO begin
with never had a better chance 10 make
money from raising good horses. and the
time TO begin is when the supply is low
and the country depleted OF stock.

sides things that any one has in the mouse.
1t is a very pretty trick, too, and Wnlle
there is nothing wonderful about it, 1t is
most interesting TO watch and will serve
to entertain a number of friends in one OF
those awkward moments that so often oc-
cur at parties or gatherings of both young
folk and their elders:
All that you need for this trick is
glass of pure water. placed on table or
little stand i'm plain view of your audi
ence. and a few shavings of camphor. 1t
is better to have the camphor shavings
quite thin and to have number OF them,
say eight or ten. Now your apparatus is
ready.
Before performing the trick you should
tell your little friends something about
whirlpools: how they draw ships into
their fearful, revolving threats, and.
crushing them, suck them down to the
depths of the ocean; how they are formed
of masses of water whirling round and
round until a funnel appears in the mid
die, which engulfs anything caught within
the rushing ring of water. Now your trick
should be done.
Sprinkle the shavings of camphor on
the surface of the water in the glass. Try
to have the pieces of camphOT at equal
distances from each other, so that they
extend completely around the edges. The
camphor chips will instantly start to
whirl around the top of the water in the
glass. and in a moment there will be a
beautiful whirlpool, but, of course. on a
very small scale. This will continue for
some time. and is very interesting to
watch.
