In book on Japan Douglas Staden
Fecounts the things that the Japanese
have not. They have no bread, no
beds. no boots and shoes, no trousers
for the men, no petticoats for the wo-
men, This sounds alarming, but both
sexes wear instead several dressing
gowns, one over the other-the kimo-
nos Of commerce. In their houses they
have no windows, no doors, no walls,
no ceilings, no chests Of drawers. not
even a washing stand. and the ward
robe is only lot of bOxes piled one
on top OF another. In the Kitchens they
have no range, no pots no pans, no
-four bins, no hour, no kitchen tables.
But then, they have no tables or
chairs in the drawing room, and in the
real native house the drawing room IL
self is only lot of bedrooms with
their walls taken down. There is no
reason why you should find anything
IN a Japanese house except mats and
a charcoal stove for warming your fin-
gers and the teapot and committing
suicide. Japan is full OF cherry trees
and plum trees, but they do without
fruit The cherries are used for the
blossoms and the plums for hanging
poems on.

Men and Animals In water.

The animal has no advantage in any
way in water over man, and yet the
man browns, while the animal swims.
The dog, the horse, the COW and even
the cat all take 10 the water and are
able TO walk as they do when out Of
water. Throw a dog into the stream,
and at once he begins 10 walk just as
he does on dry land Why should a
man, woman or child act differently un-

1t seems strange that people have TO
be told 10 do what the animals do in

chaIrman eIIl Talks.

Eugene Gin, chairman of the Dem
ocratic city committee, authorized to-
day the following statement:
4 am pleased with the result as
shown BY the wonderful gains made
by those who are in favor Of white
supremacy. Especially in the First
wurd, where we came near electing
our entire ticket against a Republican
majority ef l0s In the Fourth ward
we would have won had tt not been
Tor the fact that Major McBrine, our
candidate for council, vas carrying
water on both shoulders-playing to
the negro vo.ers On an anti-negro plat
form. This instance had the effect
also 10 lose the second where several
lost faith In the sincerity of the anti
negro issue on account of McBrine's
attitude. The Third ward cast the
only representative vote. The white
people Of the Fifth gave up a great
deal tco easy. Where we should. have
had III white votes we only got 109
and the Democratic candidates got 107
OF those, which shows that the voters
there appreciate the anti-negro prop
ositon. The white vo'ers of the town
ought generally tc regret the light
vote. With an issue as important as
this every pr.per y owner should have
seen to his interests at the polls.

Potato Cultivation.

Those who have tried the plan OF
cultivating the potato field, even to the
point that some growers would pro-
nounce excessive, have found that 1t
pays we'll. There can be no possible
doubt but that frequent cultivation,
especially during the period In which
the top growth is being made, gives
the growing tuber chance to get all
the possible benefits Of moisture and
heat with the desired result. The
first civilizations should be close to
the plant and to some considerable
depth; later civilizations are farther
from the plant and quite shallow, but
this last sort of cultivation Is kept
up all through the growing period. If
the plan seems new to you try it on
small scale and note the results.
Especially Is it worth trying on field
where the application Of fertilizer has
not been as heavy as it should have
been; at harvest time compare the re-
suits from this field with those from
a field that has been better fertilized,
but not 80 frequently cultivated. You
will then have proof Of the adage that
"cultivation is manure"

The Caldwell tribune. [volume] (Caldwell, Idaho Territory [Idaho]) 1883-1928, 1904-08-27

During the busy months Of the year
farmers are anxious to get all the work
possible out Of their horses, which Is
proper enough. Food alone will not do
the trick. A horse may be fed the
best of rations, but he needs care in
addition, SO try these things which
may seem simple, but which will do a
great deal toward making the horse
contented and more valuable to you.
Keep his coat clean, not only by
brushing and the use Of the comb, but
use water on him freely, especially
during the warm period. When his
work for the day Is done take a sponge
and wash each part Of his coat where
the harness touched. II his muscles
are sore take equal parts Of Iodine and
sweet oil, mix them and rub the mix
ture we'll into the joints and tendons
Wash out his mouth occasionally and
take care Of his feet. Above all, in
warm weather see that his stable Is
we'll ventilated and that screens are
placed so that vermin are kept from
annoying him. In watering the horse
let him have 1t before eating and also
a small supply between meals, even
II he Is warm. 1t will not hurt him
unless you give him too much.
