FARMERS.
VIII.-Why We Feed.

well fed; at the same time as they
ora giving milk, or laying on flesh,
otc. they have to breathe, digest
their food, and exercise more or less;
even if they are kept quiet in the
stable there are internal motions of
heart. lungs, intestines, and other
organs to be kept up. The animals
depend on their food to supply the
materials required for the continued
exercise of these different functions.
We find, however, that farm foods
differ greatly in their contents of the
various nutritive elements which
they supply, and are therefore of diff
ferent value in feeding farm animals.
We may here consider feeding stufs
made up of four kinds of materials,
viz:
l. Water.
,. Mineral substances Ozone build
ing.)
8. Heat producing materials
Starch, sugar, fat or oils).
+. FI~esh-forming materials (pro-
TEN, nitrOgenOus nutrients).
The water in feed stufs is of no
Importance in this connection, as it
does not contribute directly to the
~sustenance Of the animals, and only
effects the palatability of the food.
The other c~ompOnents given are alb
Solutely essential for the feeding of
farm animals, as well as of all other
animals and of man. Nc animal can
grow or eve live for any length of
time without receiving all of them
IN the food, and if n or two were
absent in the food the result would
be disastrous to the animal and it's
owner. Not only that, but if these
different classes of food elements are
not present in certain fairly definite
Proportions in the food given, it's
nutrients will not be properly util-
Hed' and It's feeding value therefore,
corrcspondingIv lowered.
The hcat-producing materials are
sech as starch, sugar, fat, woody
nOre' and similar compounds which
make up the bulk of the dry matter

CALL FOR MEETING OF NATIONAL
COMMITTEE.

Memphis, Tenn, Dec. 10, 1903.-The
national executive committee of the
peoples party of the United States, in
session at Memphis, Tenn, this 10th
day of December, 1893, begs leave to
congratulate the earnest reform vot-
ers of the United States on the rapid
spread of those great principles OF
human government enunciated in the
Omaha platform of 1892, and for which
our organization has steadfastiy con-
tended, since the beginning.
The political history of the past few
years has only served to strengthen
our position, and to draw the atten-
ton of patriotic voters to the prin-
ciples involved In our political creed,
until it is today generally accepted
theory that government ownership of
monopolies is better than. monopoly
ownership of government, although
through the manipulation of political
machines by the monopolies now con-
trolling the public utilities of the
country, there has been but little leg
islation looking to public ownership.

SEMI-SOCIALIST

DR.. J. II. Lackey, Canton, KY, who
is member of the Butler national
committee, enrolls as a member of the
Old Guard Of Populism, saying: Il
still feel an interest in the old pop
party-but | fear the old party's day
of usefulness is past. | am nearly a
full-blooded socialist. Believe the
peoples party has been a sort of
schoolmaster to bring us to socialism,
In my county canvass made my text
these words from the preamble of the
Omaha PLATFORM: Wealth belongs to
those who create it'-and | think they
ought to have 1t. Let's get the
populists and socialists together
there Is but little difference In their
aims"
have discussed this elsewhere In
this report. DR.. Lackey is what Hon.
o. ID. Jones OF Edna, Mo-, terms an
American soclalist"-whlch Ia little
else than a very radical populist. Ter

LIFE OF JESSE HARrER.

Hon. A. c. Barton, of Danville, ILL.,,
has in preparation biography of the
Life and Labors of Col. Jesse Har-
per-" 1t will contain about APO pages,
51-4 by 1-2, bound in cloth. In or
der to assist him in getting out the
first edition, it is necessary that con-
siderable number of populists send Mr.
Barton advance orders, which he will
accept at the rate of 81 per copy. At
ter the edition is printed the price
will be $1.25. Members of the Old
Guard of Populism who began back
in the days of Peter Cooper and Jesse
Harper ought to take this matter up
for the sake of the days OF auld lang
syne, and see that Mr.. Barton receives
sufficient orders right away to bring
out the work.

few years has taught several invalua-
BILE lessons to those who would re-
form existing abuses, the most i'm
pOrtant of which is that fusion or CO.
operation with either Of the Old par
ties is failure, destined to spread
confusion among reformers and to de-
stroy our organization. 1t has also
taught that divided reform move
ment can accomplish but little. While
in the past honest differences of Opin-
ion have divided our ranks, and lent
consolation to our enemies and the
despoilers of the people, we recon-
mend as the future policy of our party
that reformers of all factions bury
their minor differences and unite on
the essential principles that will re-
store to the people the power to con-
duct the government free from the
dictation of an oligarchy of the idle
holders of idle capital"
To this end we hereby call the ma
tiOnal central committee of the allied
peoples party to meet at the New st.
James hotel, in st. Louis, Mo-, Feb
ruary %, at 10 o'clock a. M, to fix
a time and place for a national con-
vention to nominate candidates for
president and vice president of the
United States, and we invite the COM
mittees of other reform parties to meet
at the same time and place, looking
to practical union of the reform
forces Of the country in the approach
ing national campaign. We especially
invite the representatives of organ
ized labor, as it is the policy of the
peoples party to support the worthy
efforts of organized labor in it's strug-
giles against organized capital, and be-
lieying that the final relief Of labor
rests solely in an intelligent and well
directed ballot, we urge the co-opera-
tion OF the labor forces in our conven-
tions and at the polls.
| We indorse the action of the recent
Denver conference in looking to re-
union Of the peoples party on the old
lines, and extend our hands in frater-
nal greeting to our cO-laborers of the
great northwest who have in the past
been misled by false promises, only
to now be offered as a sacrifice to
| Mammon.
There is widespread dissatisfaction
in the republican party; the demo-
cratic party has abandoned the west
and is now engaged in concluding an
alliance with the capitalistic forces of
| the east. The way is now clear for the
| patriotic men and women of all par
ties to unite on those essential prin-
ciples of human liberty, and to this
end we pledge our earnest endeavors

Smith county would have been dead
long ago if all the statesmen had been
as cheap as Mccormick.
DIR. J. T. Poison, Laclede, Mo-: Il
am much pleased with the plan Of en-
rollment, but more pleased to know
that energy and system are to be en-
ployed in reorganizing. There are a
number in this (Linn) county who can
and will join the Old Guard OF Pop
ulism and who can be depended upon
in the work. If you will send me about
twenty enrolment blanks-if 1t will
not interfere with your plans-I will
see them and enroll them myself.
There is more populist sentiment here
than ever before and, with democracy
reorganized, the populist vote, In my
judgment, will be something surpris-
ing" Q have sent DR.. Poison the ~
blanks. His idea is good. Others ought
to adopt the same course.)
H. C. Patzwald, r. F. D. 1, Ell Reno,
Okla: II hope that your efforts may
result in an organization that will
avoid the errors of the past and en-
deavor to practice, within its power,
the principles we advocate.
A. G. Barton, Danville, H.: Yes,
sir; | indorse all you call for in your
circular. am straight Jesse Harper
populist, from the crown of my head
to the soles of my feet. Have been IN
the middle of the road since 1876 and
have always opposed fusion.
B. N. Cleaveland, Fremont, Neb.:
"You can count on me as member OF
the Old Guard Of Populism until death
ends my career on earth"
J. O. Smith, Ord, Neb.: Il am
stronger in the faith than ever before
I cast nv vote for Weaver in 1892 and
have voted the fusion ticket ever
since-but no more fusion for me. /.
The peoples party must rise again.
L. r. Fletcher, Bancroft, Neb.: u
am one of the Old Guard and proud to
own it. There is no populist or
ganization in Cunning cOunty-fusion
swallowed it, boots and breeches
There were at one time about 400 pop
ulists in the county, and | think they
are here yet and will be heard from
when independence is declared"
w. C. Starkey, Violet, Neb.: There
are many true populists here, but the
past few years of fusion has disor-
ganized the county. ;. :. honestly Op-
posed fusion because, when green
backer in Ohio, the same policy was
pursued in the campaign of 1873
Then fusion with democracy democrat
lied our party. The fusion candidate
for governor, Thomas Ewing, was
beaten by large majority, and the
greenback vote of nearly $4,000 fell of
to $4,000. | was candidate for the
legislature and felt the blow as 9
