ROUGH RIDING THE SENATE.

President Roosevelt ,las 6cro ox1ct-
ly right in calling a, MA session il
the United States Senate 1t is a bit
Of rough riding over senatorial dila-
toriness that is highly ccmmendable.
The remaining time of that body dur
ing the present session, which will
close Wednesday, will he needed to
pass the appropriation bills and close
up various ouds and ends Of legisla-
ton, and important public measures
should not be jeCpardized by the de-
termination Of a few longWinded
transgressOrs upon senatorial cCurte-
sy to prevent the ratification Of the
Panama canal and Cuban treaties.
II Senator Morgan and few others
would talk all sum nler against the two
treaties and keep the Senators in ses-
sion until they became mere walking
skeletons, it would be a righteous
punishment upon the members OF that
body fer their neglect to adopt rules
that would enable them to to trans
act business with reasonable dispatch.
1t is an outrage that Che man, or ev
en- a large mionrity, can effectually
block legislation. Under the prepos
ferrous customs prevalent in the Sen
ate there is no such thing as govern
ment by majority, fo- only such leg
islation can be enacted as the minor
ity, sometimes one man, has the grace
to permit
The obstructive tactics OF the op-
ponents of tn Statehood bill and the
Panama canal treaty have made it
necessary for the President to call an
inconvenience resulting to the Sena-
tors the people can only rejoice, but
they are justly indignant over the
needless increae- - the expenses OF
the governme-... - Senators them
selves will receive o more money on
account {: - Extra session, except
for milea &c but the cost OF attaches
printing Anu other things will amount
to considerable.
The President is not responsible fol
this extra expense. The treaties
which he has negotiated are of great
Importance and they were laid before
the Sneate in ample time for the full
est consideration necessary. The mer
it's Of those treaties the Mail does no
care to discuss at present. 1t is SUI
fcient to say that 8 majority OF tbs
Senators undoubtedly are in favor O
their ratification This being true
the President was justified in dom.
his best to secure their approval. Th'
blame for the extra session rests upol
those arrogant men who held up tn
Senate and upon the Senate itself TO
allowing itself to be held up.
One result of this will undoubt
eddy be to increase the demand TO
the election of United States Snator
by popular vote. The fact that th
Senators are not directly responsible
to the people is believed to be on
rason for their frequent disregard G
the interests of the people. OF cours
Senators elected by popular vot
might still keep up the absurditie
resulting from senatorial courtesy,
but the fact that the people had dc

general dissatisfaction with the Sen
ate's methods of procedure, and the
knowledge of the existence of that dis
satisfaction might impress the mem
bers Of the so-called Upper House"
with sufficient respect for their con-
stituents to induce them to reform
their methods of doing--or rather not
doing-business.-T Mail Of Stock

JULY WORK FOR FARMERS
It viii Pay to Kill the Pests which
Eat, Corrupt and Destroy


Eat, Corrupt and Destroy
Among the most troublesome in
sects this month are potato bugs,
flea beetles, cabbage worms, pea
lice and striped cucumber beetles.
A little lime and tobacco water will
drive away the striped pests. One
Of the best remedies for the potato
bug is paris green, one part in from
thirty to fifty of some cheap -four
and busted on the vines. For potato
blight this month spray with
Bordeaux mixture.
About the only way to kill the
stinking squash bugs and squash
vine borers is to place boards on the
ground by the vines and in the
morning crush the bugs found under
them when they will go for conceal
ment. The borer can only be killed
by cutting it out.
Household insects, clothes moths
may be killed in two ways, first by
heating the articles, woolen goods,
furs, rugs. etc., to 14Oo Fahrenheit
for 15 or 20 minutes or to put them
for few hours in a closed vessel,
like wash boiler, with a few
ounces Of benzine, carbon bisulphid
or formalin in a shallow dish so the
liquid can easily evaporate, keep it
away from the fire and prolong the
treatment until the pests are killed.
Next air the garments and beat them
in the sunshine then put away with
moth balls, lavendar, pennyroyal or
sprigs of cedar in tight paper bags
or pasteboard boxes sealed with
strips Of paper.
Should any feas appear place
sticky fly paper under tables,
bureaus or beds and they will be
caught. Red mites on poultry can
be killed by spraying the interior Of
the hen house and all roosts with 20
per cent kerosene and water mixture
or wash with suds of whale oil soap
or with kerosene or white wash
frequently Mix powdered sulphur
in the dust the fowls bathe in and
for lice on Them sift the sulphur in
their feathers. A handful of pow
dered tobacco in the nests of setting
hens is excellent. For lice on live
stock spray with kerosene emulsion
rubbing it in with the hand or wash
the animals with a tobacco decoction
made by boiling one pound of leaf
tobacco in two gallons of water.
The best and easiest remedy for
gapes in little chickens is to mix one
teaspoonful of spirits of turpentine
with every quart ofl corn meal
necessary, moisten it, feed to the
chicks and scatter sir-slaked lime
freely in the runs.

FEEDING HORSES
The Advantages Of Ground and Un.
ground Feed Considered

Opinions differ as regards the adj
vantages of grinding grain. For
horses which are out Of the stable
during the day and worked hard, It
is quite generally believed that all
grains, with the possible exception
of oats, should be ground, and for
those at extremely hard work, all
grain should be ground and mixed
with chafIed hay. For idle horses
oats or grain should not be ground,
nor should hay or straw be chaffed.
In other words, provided the animals
have time TO masticate their ration
thoroughly, grinding is not necessary.
When this is not the case, grinding
takes the place of thorough mastica-
tion to some extent, and increases
the assimilation of the ration.
When whole oats were compared
with ground wheat and bran at the
North Dakota Station, the horses fed
the former ration ate somewhat more
and showed a slight loss in weight,
while doing a little less work than
those fed the ground grain. At the
Utah Station, tests of the comparative
merits of ground and unground corn,
oats, and wheat fed under different
experimental conditions indicated
that the ground and ungrOund grains
were equally satisfactory. When
whole and ground oats, corn, and
barley were compared for colts at the
Iowa Station, somewhat larger gains
were made on the ground feed.
The comparative digestibility of
different ground and unground feed
ing stuffs was tested at the Maryland
Station. 1t appeared that ground
corn and oats we're more thoroughly
digested than the unground grain.
In this connection it may be noted
that similar results have been obtain
ed in tests with other farm animals,
but it is commonly believed that the
difference in digestibility is often not
sufficient to pay for the cost Of
grinding.
From all the American tests, and
those which have been made in
Europe, it appears fair to say that
there is no very marked advantage
in grinding grain for healthy horses
with good teeth. &C. T. Longworthey.

Monroe,s Judicial Fight

There is a lively fight in the Mon
roe Pike judicial district, since two
leading democratic lawyers of
Sroudsburg - c. B Staples and
Henry Kotz-have announced them
selves as candidates for judicial
honors. Republicans will put in
nomination the incumbent, Judge
Wilton A. Erdman, who was ap-
pointed early in the year by Exs
Governor Stone to fill the vacancy
caused by the death of Judge Allen
Craig of carbon county.
The situation is becoming inter-
esting in the democratic rivalry.
The lines are being tightly drawn
between Kotz and Staples, and close
observers are in doubt as to the
outcome. Rival democratic leaders
are daily announcing themselves in
favor of either Kotz or Staples. Ex-
Representative Rogers L. Burnett
has decided not to enter the fight
personally, but has announced him.
self in favor of Kotz.
1t is believed that the Pike county
democrats will not have a candidate
of their own, but will endorse the
candidate successful at the Monroe
county primaries, which will be held
the last Saturday in August, unless
the animosity between Kotz and
Staples should become bitter. Then
Pike county will present a candidate
of her own.-Easton Free Press.
