dacy for state treasurer he was much
interested. Some Of Payne's lieuten-
ants, without his knowledge, promised
Thurman the support of the Payne
forces for his friend in return for the
votes he controlled in the convention;
but the Thurman candidate for treas
urer failed at the last moment to re-
ceive the promised support Of the
Payne following, and was defeated.
Payne was not aware of the trick that
had been played upon Thurman, but
the latter, who scorned double dealing
in any form, was quick to resent it.
Within the hour the opportunity to do
fell in his way. The convention ended,
Payne went to a hotel for dinner, ac-
companied by some friends, and in

Rye for Dairy Cows.

When rye is to be used for feeding
COWS in the spring it should be sown in
the latter part Of August or in the
early part of September. So sown 1t
will get well started and cover the
ground well before winter comes on.
If it grows too well, 1t is easy enough
to reduce its thrift by turning in the
calves, sheep or COWS for few weeks
in the fall. This pasturing should not
be continued long enough to reduce
the covering to point where the
roots will be injured later by the
seventies of winter. In the sowing
of the seed about three bushels should
be used per acre, as this gives finer
stemmed rye than the ordinary amount
Of seed and this fineness makes 1t
more agreeable to the cows. The use
of the rye crop is found in the early
spring before the pasture grasses have
had time to develop. When the grass
comes on the cows will abandon the
rye for the grass, the taste of which
they prefer to that of the rye.

Profitable and Profitless stock


At a Wisconsin institute A. e. Rob-
erts said: With stock OF good blood
there Is no difficulty in making a steer
two years of age top the market and
bring good profit for the feed and
care given. However, the great bulk
of stock shipped to our leading mar
kets Is not OF the above quality. One
Will readily ascertain at the stock
yards that quality counts for more
than quantity. and that fat alone is not
sufficient. Buyers will ride into pen
where good cattle are and perhaps will
raise their first bid in order to get
them. The seller easily disposes of
them at the top price of the day.
This class are of high grade, good
beef type and conformation, with ca.
pacity for producing the greatest per-
centage of htgh-priced meat. They are
what the buyers term the smooth,
fesby lot. This class of cattle COM
prise only about 10 per cent of the
bulk, In adjoining pens buyers will
ride in, view the stock, then ride away,
with the remark, Il will not give that
price, they are too rough" The seller
has to work to dispose Of them, and
when he does the price is disappoint-
ing to the farmer, as it is only about
one-half the price offered for the best
class. A portion of this class consists
of stock with an infusion of dairy
blood. While they make good gains
their feed goes to the production of
internal fat. A greater per cent are
common, unimproved, inferior animals
in finish as well as form. This class
comprises about so per cent of the
stock forwarded to market. This
means that the farmer has received
about half the price for the animals
he has raised and forwarded to mar.
ket that he would have gotten IL they
had been properly bred, grown and
finished. 1t has taken as much of the
food OF maintenance and as much feed
to grow every pound of their weight as
though they were worth twice the
money. 1t Is folly to attempt to engage
in beef production with such class Of
animals, especially where stall feeding
and intensive farming are practiced
There is no reason why such stock
should be grown, as the type and con-
formation can be improved by the use
of good beef bred sires, and the more
grading up by pure blood animals Of
approved form the better the results.
Four or five generations of pure bred
sires will establish herd of live stock
practically as good for all feeding pur-
poses as pure breeds.

cess and the victory of the democratic
party"
81 do not want any OF your wine,
sir" was the reply. 81 told that
damned waiter to say as much to you,
sir, a moment ago" And so saying,
Thurman turned his back abruptly on
the man from Cleveland.
Payne never forgot nor forgave this
public insult. The quarrel thus begun
ever after kept the two men apart, and
three and twenty years later thwarted
Thurman's highest ambition. In 1880
he was a candidate for the presidential
nomination before the democratic ma
tional convention. Had he had the I'M
flinching support of the Ohio delega-
ton, there is little doubt that he
would have been the nominee. The
delegation was solid for him on the
first ballot. Then it broke and the
chances of his nomination vanished
into thin air. Payne was behind the
break, The delegates from the dis
trict in which his influence was su-
preme led 1t and were strongest in the
claim which stampeded the convention
to dark horse. AS Ohio was then an
October state and practically certain
to go for Garfield, the result would be
disastrous to the democratic cause.
That argument defeated Thurman and
nominated Hancock, and the revenge
Of Payne was complete.
But the most dramatic Of all the
political feuds of the last forty years,
both in its inception and its sequel,
was that between Blaine and Roscoe
Conkling. The two men entered the
popular branch Of Congress at about
the same time, and both soon became
leaders in that body. There was,
however, little in common between
them save the gift of pre-eminent abil'
ity. Conkling made Blaine the OBJ.
ject of his sarcasm whenever oppor.
tunity offered, and the member from
Maine was Prompt to retort in kind.
Thus the cnmity grew until, in the
course Of enc of their many encoun.
ters, Blaine, stGng to the quick by an
unjust and ungeneruus taunt, burst
forth in an onslaught on his torment
or which wrought the House into a
high pitch Of excitement and marked
the beginning of fierce struggle in
the Republican party that ended in
the humiliation of Conkling and the
defeat of Blaine for President. Here
are Blaine's words, and they are a
model Of excoriation:
"As to the gentleman's cruel sar-
casm, l hope he will not be too Sc,
we're. The contempt of that large.
minded gentleman is so willing, his
naughty disdain, his grandiloquent
SWELL his majestic, supereminent.

been SO crushing to myself and all
members Of this House that know it

Best Horse to Raise.

There is no doubt that the best
horse for the farmer to raise is the
draft horse. The farmer needs some
times to raise roadsters and driving
horses; but in the main the draft leads
all others. There are many more
draft horse. The farmer needs some
kind. The demand is not so much for
an improved kind of horse as for q
first-class animal of the kinds we now
have. The draft horse can be raised
with little expense to the farmer and
he begins to pay his way before the
time comes to market him. The draft
colt works in easily with the general
work of the farm. The farmer may
find it difficult to sell light harness
horse for carriage purposes. but he
never has trouble in selling a first
class draft horse. In any event II
should be remembered that it requires
no more labor to care for good draft
horse than for poor one. The horse
of quality will consume no more feed
than the other, but the margin be-
tween cost and selling price is very
much greater in the case of the good
horse than between the cost and sell.
ing price of the inferior horse.

for me to venture upon a controversy
with him"
Then, referring to chance news
paper comparison of Conkling to
Henry Winter Davis, lately dead, he
continued:
"The gentleman took 1t seriously
and it has given his strut additional
pomposity. The resemblance is
great; it is striking-Hyperion to a

marble, dunghill to diamond, singed

PROCLAMATION of that jocose satire"
There could be no reconciliation
after such an onslaught, and the bat
tie was to the death. Defeated for
the Republican nomination by Conk.
ling and his friends in 1876 and again
in 1880, Bs,lns in the latter year
threw his fofiowing to his friend
Garfield, who, nominated and elected,
made Blaine his secretary of state
and official right hand. Then came the
struggle over the New York patron:
age, which retired Conkling, and was
followed by the assassination of Gar
field. In 1884, when Blaine was final
ly the formal choice of his party,
Conkling was no longer in politics,
but the sequel proved that his was
still the will and power to strike a
mortal blow. A detection of few
hundred votes in Conkling's home
county of Oneida gave that county
normally Republican, to Cleveland
and with it the electoral vote of New
York and the presidency. Conkling
had wiped out the score against his
ancient enemy.-Rufus Rockwell Will
