throughout Pennsylvania. says the Ma

that he cures his clover chiefly in the
shock and that a rain does not damage
It much. Those Of our readers who do
not shock the clover until it is nearly
cured may fail to understand how this
may be, but note DIR. Thayer's state
ment: He puts the clover into shocks
"as soon as the stalks and branches
have wilted and before any of the
leaves are dried" The shocks are mar
row and broad at the top, so that they
will not burn. Glover that is barely
wilted settles together very closely,
and water does not penetrate 1t easily.
This method of making clover hay is
practiced also by the Ralstons OF Arm

welcome some rain as soon as the wilt
ed clover has gone into shock.

Who Is the Joke On?

The St. Louis correspondent to the
Chicago Record Herald relates the fol-
lowing incident concerning the mistake
in identity made by a farmer visitor to
the exposition. While the mistake was
rather amusing, it will appear not alto
gether unnatural in view of the former
senator's great feat of tanning the wild
and fierce South Dakota democracy and
causing it to eat out of his hand and purr
with pleasure when he deigned to smooth
its bristly back:
"Well, how are the animals today"
asked a Kansas delegate, as he walked
up to a grizzled antique in the stables
outside the convention enclosure. "I've
seen Your pictures enough times to know
you by sight. Isuppose you'd rather be
back in the cages with the wild beasts
than in that bowling mob of rowdies.

crew." he said, and the Kansan faded
away with the muttered remark to the
effect that ne had taken the bewhiskered
man for Hagenbeck, the animal trainer.

THE HERD.
Family Merit is Of More Importance
Than Mere Pedigree.

In these days any dairyman who
wants registered animals Of any of the
approved breeds can get them If he
will but make the effort, says H. E.
Alvord, chief Of the dairy division Of
the bureau of animal industry. The
beginner in registered dairy stock can
not be too strongly urged to buy and
breed on the basis of individual and
family merit and dairy record, and not
upon pedigree alone.
Pedigree Is of great value and should
be well studied; it is the best guaranty
that the calves to come will make good
cows. But the pedigree should be
supported by uniform excellence in the
family and by evidence of merit in the
particular animals bought. Although
the investment is greater, there is
greater certainty of good results if ma
ture cows are bought which show
what car be expected of them, if they
have not already made a record, than
il calves or undeveloped heifers are
selected.
1t is also economy, having chosen the
right breed, to purchase good represen-
tatives of that breed, rather than be
content with only average or even or
binary animals. Successful dairying
has proved that the greater profit
comes from the best cows, whatever
their kind. This is as true of pure
bred or registered stock as of common
cows. 1t is better to pay $500 for three
excellent cows than to pay the same
sum for four good cows or five which
are only fair.
A really superior dairy cow of a SUI
perior family with pedigree which
gives assurance of calves equal to the
dam, If not better. is always worth a
large price. Such an animal adds
much to the average value Of any
dairy herd. In buying registered cat
tie deal only with men Of reputation
as breeders and Of strict integrity. The
best part of a pedigree is the name of
the breeder.

MITCHELLAND CROPFAILURE

Nothing but a crop failure in the
upper Jim Valley and the Missouri
slopes will secure the capital for
Mitchell. Of course if we could
only have a crop blistering season
tending to corroborate Mitchell's
theory that the settlements in this
state are already west of the agri-
cultural belt, and that a retreat
should be called, many would believe
what Mitchell breaches, viz, that we
are dangerously neal and many of
us upon a country that will always
be a desert. We e no signs now
of things coming Mitchell's way
either by a crop failure or a capital
removal. Be contented, hopeful and
happy and vote against moving the
capital to one corner of the state

THE CAPITAL DEBATE.

n. p. Bromley, of Redfield who
employed to support Mitchell in the
capital day debate here last Thurs
day was a member of the last legis-
%lature. Before the body had been
in session many weeks, about every
measure he advocated was defeated
and measures he opposed would be
almost certain to go through. In
fact, friends of a bill towards the
end of the session preferred his
opposition. 1t was hard for one
unacquainted with the facts to
understand this condition of affairs
but since hearing him ON the capital
debate is easily understood. Sensi-
BILE people do not take kindly to the
sort of vituperation which he seems
to think is argument. Bromley is
certainly a hoodoo for Mitchell.
After giving himself a liberal coat
of whitewash and presenting himself
with a certificate of good character
he trotted back and forth across the
stage after the manner of an organ
grinders monkey and about to as
good purpose, his facial extortion
and cartoonist gesticulations excited
feelings of contempt and aroused
opposition rather than attracted sup
port for the cause he represented.
But really he deserves credit for
doing the best he could.
Last week we stated that we did
not believe the capital debate at the
assembly changed the opinion of a
single voter. We have since learned
that we were in error. Some of our
leading business men and farmers
have told us that they were previ-
ously favorably disposed toward
Mitchell because Of its proximity to
our city they are now convinced that
q vote for Mitchell would be an
epdorsement Of the mslignment Of a
large portion Of the state and con-
sequently they viii vote for Pierre.
