The bad reputation of second-growth

results of recent chemical tests in
which the young and stunted stalks

sons. 1t has not been found in full
grown plants. but only in the stunted
plants that come up after the main
crop has been removed. The acid is

The sugar in the green fodder is
practically all destroyed in the silo.
and since it is most abundant in the
corn plant in the early stages of ear
development it is an additional argu-
uent for postponing cutting until the
grain is full size and the sugars have
changed largely to starch. The amount
of seed per acre affects the yield OF

TH1NKSGIVING DAY.
November 26 Designated by the Pres
ident in Annual Proclamation.

BY the President Of the United States
of America. a proclamation:
The season is at hand, when accord
ing to the custom of our people, it
falls upon the President to appoint a
day of praise and Thanksgiving to
God.
During the last year the Lord has
dealt bountifully with US, giving us
peace at home and abroad, and the
chance for our citizens to work for
their welfare unhindered by war,
famine, or plague. 1t behooves us
not only to rejoice greatly because OF
what has been given us, bat to acce pit
it with a solemn sense of responsible
ity, realizing that under Heaven it
rests with us ourselves to show that
we are worthy to use Alright what has
thus been intrusted to our care, In
no other place and at no other time
has the experiment of government of
the people. by the people, for the peo-
pie, been tried on 50 vast scale
as here in our own country in the
opening years of the twentieth Gen.
tury. Failure would not only be
dreadful thing for us, but dreadful
thing for all mankind, because it
would mean loss of hope for all who
believe in the power and the right
eousness of liberCy.
Therefore, in thanking God for the
mercies extended to us in the past, we
beseech Him that He may not with
hold them in the future, and that
our hearts may be reused to war stead
lastly for good and against all the
forces of evil, public and private. We
pray for strength and lighr, so that in
the coming years we may with clean
| illness. feaIlessness, and wisdom do
our allotted work on the earth in such
manner as to show that we are not
altogether unworthy of the blessings
we have received
Now, therefore, l, Theodore Roose
velt, President of the United States,
do hereby designate as a day of gen
eral thanksgiving, Thursday, the
| twenty sixth of the coming Novem-
| ber, and do recommend that through
out the land people cease from their
wonted occupations. and in their
I several homes and places of worship
render thanks unto Almighty God for
! His manifold mercies.
In witness whereof, l have hereun-
to set my hand and caused the seal
of the United States to be affixed.
Done at the city of Washington this
thirty first day of October in the year
of our Lord one Thousand nine hun
dred and three, and of the Independ
{ ence of the United States the one
hundred and twenty eighth.

THE POLICY OF COLOMBIA.
Will Make War on Panama and
Not on This Country.

New Orleans, La, Nov. 26.-Gen.
Ruiz Reyes, representing the Govern
ment of Colombia, who is on his way
to Washington to intercede in behalf
of his Government in connection with
the recognition of the Republic of
Panama. arrived here today on the
steamer Beverly. Gen. Reyes was
accompanied by Gen. Peclio Aspinal
Gen. George Holequin and Gen. L.
Cabalerro. They boarded the Beverly
at Port Limon and came direct to this
city. Gen. Reyes and party did not
go to any of the hotels. They drove
to the Louisville and Nashville Offices
and bought tickets through to New
York, and made every effort to avoid
publicity. The General had satchel
full of Colombian gold and paid for
the tickets in coin of that Republic.
The party left tonight for Washing
ton, where they will arrive on Satur-
day morning,
Before his departure Gen. Reyes
gave out an interview much on the
line of that cabled from Colon to the
Associated Press. he said he was
going to see the President with his
colleagues and hoped to have the
United States decide to keep hands of
of the Isthmus and allow the Colon
bian Government to regain the lost
territory. If the United States would
not agree to this then the Colombians
would march an army of 100, 900 men
across the mountains to Panama, and,
meeting only the 1900 lsthmians,
would soon regain the Isthmus. Then
the United States would have to nego-
tiate with Colombia or build the
Nicaraguan Canal. He said the CO.
lombians had no thought of declaring
war against the United States because
they saw it would be futile effort.

Eyerybody's Magazine for December.

The new publishers of Everybody's
Magazine declare the holiday issue of
the publication to be much the best
they have yet produced. It is not the
typical Christmas number made up Of
stilted fiction and pictures Of the festi
val in many lands. It is just an espe-
cially lively and entertaining maga-
zine, full of really good stories. clever
pictures, and well written and timely
articles.
In Everybody's one never finds a
distinguished name tackled to dull
tale Among it's contributors are the
ablest writer's of the day, but it is in
connection with their best work, not
their pot boilers. The reading public,
which has become familiar with 0.
Henry. Juliet Wilbor Tompkins, and
+. Walworth, for instance, will find
in the holiday issue the most sue ossful
story each has written this year.
The other items. in long table of

lence, however, there are some really

Another big thing the magazine has
is Eugene Burnand's pictures of Bible
scenes. reproduced for the first time
