Then DR.. Shaw speaks of Governor
Cummins; Another prominent north
western figure at the present day, also
man of broad views and with mind
of his own. is Governor Cummins, of
Iowa. He boldly advocated
what would amount TO the checkmat-
ing of Mr.. Chamberlain's preferential
project-the most liberal sort of trade
reciprocity with Canada. showing how
vastly more we should gain than lose
by a freedom of trade intercourse with
our nearest neighbor and best custom
err He also advocated a general eN-
tension OF reciprocity arrangements
with other countries. Certainly. if the
republican party does not in the near
future see its way to such a position.

preciated the need of this new tariff
policy. The stupid 'standpat' phrase rs

precisely the opposite of Mckinley's

Handling a Bull.

a writer in a dairy paper says on

me to be authority on the care or

agree with some that the bull should
not be peuted or spoken to kindly. A

case, ard where meadows and pastures
are not fenced hog tight, there is no
crop that will give better results than
rape in the course of seven or eight
as the frost is out in the spring and 1t is
an excellent idea to seed down bare
feed yards. Four or five pounds of rape
seed per acre. thoroly disced In, will be
sufficient to insure splendid crop of
rape in the yours OF seven or eight
weeks. When ii has made this growth
1t viii furnish an amount of pasture
during the balance of the season that
will astonish any breeder that ds not
accustomed to the crop. 1t may be nee
essary to feed little grain in connec-
ton with the rape, but one need have
no difficulty in making hundred
pounds OF pork when hogs run on rape
with an outlay of between So and SO
for grain.
Sometimes 1t Is advisable TO mix to-
geufer red clover and rape in equal pro-
portions. In this case the clover fur
nishes somewhat larger per cent Of
flesh forming constituents than rape.
while at the same time 1t adds variety
to the ration, and consequently makes
the food more palatable. In some in
stances crimson clover makes a salts
factory hog pasture for one season
when sown early in the spring at the
rate OF one peck per acre. This, how
ever. is not n perennial in the corn belt
and must be sown every season. 1t
grows a little quicker than red clover,
and If sown with rape will make a most
excellent feed for hogs.
In establishing hog pastures it Is
usually advisable to keep in mind the
matter OF variety because hogs grow
tired OF one food. We have in mind one
breeder who makes a practice of SOW
ing rape, red clover. crimson clover and
alfalfa together early in the spring
while later In the season he harrows
n little sorghum seed. This makes a
mixture that furnishes large amount
IF pasture and lasts almost the entire
season.

an example of failure. Mr.. Rockefel-
