Farming a Great Business.

Reviewing the magnitude of ag-
ricultural productions, after giving the
figures of the most important crops, Mr..
Wilson states that the value of all farm
products not fed to live stock for 1903
considerably exceeds their value in the
census year when it was given $3,742,-
100000, according to the departments
inventory of farm animals for Jan. l,
1908. The value of horses was over 81,
0OO, 600 900, and of mules nearly $780,
100000. The value of cattle of all kinds
considerably exceeds $1,000, 100000, of
sheep $l60,OOO,OO0 and of hogs 1866, O0O,-
900. 1t is almost impossible to compre-
bend these figures. 1t is the farmer who
has paid the foreign bond holders. And
You, who have never visited one of those
fat stock shows which are held in Chi
eago, are missing something that you
cannot afford to miss if you are intend
ing making farming and stock raising a
business; it is educating and when you
get home you will come to the conclusion
that farming is great business.

The Wisconsin Middle.

The situation among Wisconsin Repub.
licans is creating no little comment
throughout the country. There are two
factions in the party in that state-the
"stalwarts" and the followers of Cover
nor La Toilette. Both factions held state
conventions and each nominated a state
ticket. Now, the courts will have to be
resorted to to decide which ticket shall
have place on the official ballot. 1t is
matter of regret that the Republican
party in the Badger state has become
hornets nest, and bitter wrangling is
the principal occupation of the leaders
No good to the party can come from such
state of affairs, but much harm can
result.

STRICTLY IN FORM.

Nothing could have exceeded the cour.
tesy with which the whole affair was
managed. The lady, to be sure, was
badly tossed up and the back of her
tailor made gown showed plainly how
the automobile had rolled her over a
couple of times before she was able to
escape. There were no bones broken, Sc
far as she was able to tell then, and
her hat had been damaged but slightly
1t was plain that good brushing would
remedy the damage to the skirt.
After she had been dragged to the
sidewalk by a policeman and small
crowd had gathered about her the own
er of the machine advanced, holding out
his visiting card. He could not have
been more formal had he been paying a
dinner call.
''My card" he said: 81 am always to
be found at that address, 1 am more
distressed than l can tell you at this
accident, and 1 hops you have suffered
no injury. Unless you desire to speak
with me further, l will 90 on as l am
already late for an engagement"
The lady, who was disheveled, but
still formal, glanced at the outstretched
card as she put her back hair to rights.
Then she put the pasteboard in her card
case.
'You will hear from my husband"
she said with the same placid courtesy
that had been Characteristic of the whole
episode after the lady had once escaped
from under the machine, Sin case there
is any occasion to communicate with
you"
The gentleman lifted his hat, gave
his card also to the astonished police
man and the automobile moved on. The
lady got aboard car Nothing could
have been more polite. Are the citizens
who must cross the boulevard frequent
ly so accustomed to such accidents that
they are no longer feazed by one that
does not break a leg?-New York Sun.

Mr.. Young Should Be Nominated

Mr.. Young Should Be Nominated.
To southern Minnesota and especial
ly to the second congressional district
the office of railroad and warehouse COM
missioner is very important. Freight
rates and the rules governing the hand
ling and transportation of grain are
largely under the control of the rail
road and warehouse commission.
w. E. Young, who is seeking the nomi-
nation for this position, is in every way
qualified to fill the office. He is an in
dustrious and painstaking lawyer OF
twenty years practice and is at an age
when experience and vigor combine to
produce the best results.
Heretofore the second district has
failed because it has always gone into
the state convention divided. At the
present time, however, the people of the
district seem to be united in demanding
place upon the railroad and warehouse
commission and there is little doubt but
that Mr.. Young will be nominated.

to win out in a contest where factional
strife is pronounced in the opposing
party, is question that can only be de-
termined by count of the ballots. Peck
at one time was decidedly popular with
the people of Wisconsin, and his election
to the governorship of that state was
considered by his friends as great per-
sonal victory. But a new generation of
voters has sprung up since Peck floated
serenely on the crest of popularity, and
he is not as well known among the peo-
pie as he was once. His election to the
governorship now could hardly be accom-
plished with the ease with which it was
in his palmy days as humorous writer
and story teller.
