A Chance Thrown Away.

The democratic territorial conven- tion at Tucson did yesterday what it was evident that it would do; it in- structed the delegation from this ter ritory to the national democratic con- Vention to labor fer the nomination of William Randolph Hearst for the presidency or the United States.
 We believe this is an unfortunate thing for Arizona and offsets all the statehood resolutions that that con- vention adopted and that all other conventions. democratic and republican, may adopt in years to come. MT. Hearst has right to aspire to the presidency. as another man has, but the conservative element of the democracy of the ter ritory opposed the endorsement of him. The republicans of Arizona. however much they might have desired the nomination of MT. Hearst joined with the conservative democrats in the wish that the democratic party of the territory should not take a stand in his favor.
 MT. Hearst in the first place is not Of the party which is just now en- gagged in the business of making new states. Neither is he of the wing of his own party which might be expect cd to render assistance in the admis- sion of the territories. He is without A supporter among the democrats of the senate and there is no influential democrat of the house who has raised 6 voice in his favor. He belongs to an clement of his own party which has been discredited in the east where the principal opposition to statehood has arisen and which opposition must be removed before there can be a possi- bility of admission.
 We believe that if the democrats of Arizona had acted conservatively in this matter; if they had endorsed a candidate in whom their eastern breth- ren have confidence, or if they had even Fefrained from endorsing a can Gidate of unsafe and populistic tend encie$, the chances of Arizona fer statehood would have been brighter than they are now.
 An opportunity has been recklessly thrown away. If at anytime there had been a probability of the nomina- tsc& of MT. Hearst and of his subse- qUeat election and at the same time of the election of a sufficient number of representatives and senators of the pe- g1stlaT shade of democracy represent cd by him, there would have been a NssFvant for the endorsement of Mir. HeaYst. But there has been at no time EGeb probability. We do not believe ;thas any well-informed democrat in this territory, even among those who have labored so loudly and ardently fer him, has believed for an instant that the nomination of Mir. Hearst was t0 tss considered as the remotest possi- bsl9gg,

Pride and Cattle Feeding.

During the last decade cattle feed
ers have been paying more and more
attention to the breeding of the stock
stuff they buy. A great many of them

and size and quality. This is as It
should be. 1t is to be hoped that the
time will come when the doggy steer
will be a memory only. But the
farmer who feeds the cattle feeds
them as means of livelihood, not to
crafty his personal pride. He may
have, and should have, high ideals, but
he must take conditions as he finds
them. He must feed the kind of cattle
that will make him the most money
if he would succeed If the doggy steer
from Oklahoma is the one that prom
ises the greatest profit, it Is good bust
ness to feed the Oklahoma doggy II is
all very we'll to have feed lot filed
with high-grade whitefaces and even
colored shorthorns, or fancy doddes,
to show to ones neighbors, but when
these are bought at a fancy figure and
the beef cattle market declined, they
may not realize the first cost and the
feed and labor bestowed upon them.
1t is well-known fact that many of
the lots of doggy steers marketed here
the past summer made more money
for their owners than some of the lots
of high-grade steers did. The reason
was that there was not as much diff
ference in price when they were sold
for slaughter as there was when they
were bought as stockers. 1t is all
right to have their high ideals, and
continue to work toward them But,
at the same time It is good business to
take advantage of situations such as
the one which exists at this market
now, when commoner grades of stock
cattle can be bought at ridiculously
low prices, and are pretty sure to
make the feeders good profits. Be
sides. by buying up these dogies, fat
tening them. and sending them to the
shambles. the feeders will be helping
to rid the country of this inferior stock

Reduce the Cost of Production.

Those of our readers who are farm
ers for profit should concern them
selves more about lessening the cost
of production, and less about trying to
force the market price higher. The
best way for man to raise the mar
Iet price for his produce with GER
tainty and equity is to better the
quality of his produce. In our large
cities the price of butter varies from
10 cents to % cents per pound. The
highest price paid for this commodity
is regulated by supply and demand.
No matter what the highest price may
be for butter, the intermediate prices
remain. The question for the farmer
to answer is: VIII l be found fur
nlshing butter for the lower end of
the scale or the highest?
To be on the higher scale, he must
improve the quality of his product
To make the best possible profit he
must lessen the cost of production to
the minimum and couple with it quail
/ ity. The profit in any business lies in
the difference between cost of produc-
ton and the advanced price received
for the product. The farmer needs
to study the cost of production as we'll
as the manufacturer. If the cost Of
production is reduced and a fair price
is received for a product, the skilled
labor employed in reducing the cost
is rewarded. Then if high prices are
realized when the demand is strong,
the producer is twice blessed by OBJ
tanning two profits.-Sucessful FARM

Study the Soil,

Every farmer should try to make a
yearly improvement in his practice,
for without Improvement in methods
there will be no increase in profits.
Let the soil be made a little better
every year, and the corresponding in
crease in the yield of products will
compensate three or four times the
outlay. On the other hand, if there
is a constant decrease in the fertility
of the soil, the ability of the farmer
to improve his soil by reason of the
decreased yield III his crops will keep
him on the downward path. Study the
soil; keep it In good heart by rotation,
clovering and manuring, and success is
inevitable. These are the keys with
which to unlock the farmers treasure
box.-Southern Farm Magazine.

Bill of Fare too Steep.

A tall, raw-boned individual who
didn't need a grasshopper peeking out

Kansas wandered into I'd avenue
cafe a few days ago. After looking
the room over carefully he selected a
seat at O table near the door. After he
had arranged his chair with much
noise and not without attracting some
attention it dawned upon him that the
other men in the eating place had ia
ken off their hats. The Kansas man
removed a battle-scarred felt and de-
posited it carefully under the table.
A waiter brought him the regular
dinner bill of fare and waited for the
order. The Kansas man didn't say
word.
He was hard at work.
He studied over that program for
nearly half an hour and then with
sigh arose, put on the green hemlet
and started for the door.
..What Is the matter sir?' anxiously
oueried a waiter, thinking that the pa
iron had been offended.
"Too steep fer me, young feller. l
can't pay $28.45 fer one meal. It's too
rich fer my blood"
On the table at which the Kansas
man had been seated was found
small piece of paper covered with fig-
nres He had added the prices OF ev-
ervthing on the bill of fare.-Seatue

The initiate wears q jacket for the

on while other tricks are being played

its significance. This Jacket has some
weights and braces under the arms,

1t is the first hanging device Of the
kind ever patented officials at the pat

among a large array of devices more
or less generally used in initiatory cere-

tons to do It, There are very few
corporations that can produce any ag-
ricultural staple profitably. The farm
er, who makes it fit in his other work,
has the advantage in the production
OF nearly all staple crops. Especial
ly is this true in the older part Of
the country, where the land requires
rotation and the by-products from live
stock to remain profitable. We have
seen big corporation dairy and sheep
farms go down because they could not
compete with the farmers more eco
nomical production, and we expect to
see more of them go the same way.

comes to putting staples on the market
