CHICAGO. March 2s-Wheat opened
very strong and higher, but closed with
the loss n amount Of previous gain ex-
cept for May delivery. which left off at

the early bulge was due in part to an
impression that no harm would come to
wheat from the weather that is prevail

NOTES FOR THE FARM
AND THE FARMER


Owing to its cheapness corn has for
years been very largely used in pig
feeding, and much experimental work
has been done with it, says American
Cultivator. It has been found, among
other things, that there is little gain
from feeding corn ground, except that
more may be fed, since the pig will
eat more. The best quality pork is OBJ
tanned from rapidly growing pigs. The
length Of the fattening period has an
influence on the amount of feed re-
quired per hundred pounds gain. a
variety Of foods is necessary, as fire.
quent change is safeguard against
going off feed This does not mean
that the main ration, whatever it may
be, ought to be changed, but some va
riety made by an occasional addition
Of peas, oats, barley, roots and green
food. Cooking food for pigs has been
found not to repay the cost Of the ex-
ira trouble involved.

The Nominee of the Fireside.
Senator Beveridge said:

! Theodore Roosevelt, like William Nc.
| Kinley, Is the nominee of the American
| hresde. So We're Washington and Jeffer-
son in the early time; so was Andrew
| jackson when he said 1.-THE Union: II
must be preserved" so was Abraham
Lincoln when, the republic saved, he bade
/ us Bind up the nations wounds" and
Grant when from victory's very summit
his lofty words Let us have peace" voic-
| ed the spirit of the hour and the people
prayer. When nominated by parties each
OF these great presidents was, at the pc
RODS named. already chosen by the public
| judgment And so today, the Republican
party, whose strength is in its obedience
to the will of the American people, mere
ly executes again the decree which comes
to 1t from the American home in naming
Theodore Roosevelt as our candidate
The peoples thought is his thought;
American ideals. his ideals. This is his
only chart of statesnanship--an no other
is safe. For the truest guide an Ameri-
can president can have is the collective
intelligence and masscd morality of the
American people And this ancient rule
now.
Theodore Roosevelt is a leader who
leads. because he carries out the settled
purposes Of the people. Our presidents
plans when achieved are always found to
be merely the nations will accomplished.
Anu that ~ why lIe people Will elect MIN.
The seconding speeches over, Chair
man Cannon called for vote, and the
convention ordered that its entire vote
be cast as one ballot for Theodore
Roosevelt Then followed another dem
onstration lasting many minutes and
which the chairman had great difficulty
in quelling
1t was then announced that nomina-
lions for vice president We're in order,
and the roll call began. Again Alaba-
ma yielded her place, this time to Iowa,
and Senator Dolliver in an eloquent adj
dress presented the name of Charles
w. Fairbanks of Indiana. Governor
Pennypaclxer seconded the nomination.
Fairbanks nomination was made by a
unanimous vote, and final burst of
enthusiasm ended the active work of
the convention, which then adjourned
Most OF the delegates departed on
afternoon trains for st. Louis. where
they will visit the exposition as guests
of President Francis

THIRD AND GREAT DAY.

the Nominating Speeches.

Visitors Pack the Galleries to Listen to
the Nominating Speeches.
The nomination of candidates in Il
national convention is the feature that
appeals most strongly to the public.
and the number of visitors at the final
session gave ample evidence of that
fact. Half an hour before the time set
for the opening of the convention there
were as many visitors in the galleries
as witnessed the entire opening session.
1t was exactly 1920 when Chairman
Cannon. welding the immense wooden
gavel in his left hand, arose from his
high backed leather chair and with a
resounding whack ON the table in front
Of him commanded the convention to
be in order.
Rev. T. A. SniveIy Of Chicago de-
liyered the opening prayer.
Chairman Cannon at once announced
that the next order of business would
be roll call Of the states for the nom
nation Of president Of the United
States.
The clerk called Alabama, and i'm
mediately Oscar II. Hundley of that
state mounted chair and announced
that Alabama requested the honor and
privilege Of yielding its place on the
roll to the state OF New York.
Instantly the convention was in an
uproar. The New York delegation was
on its feet like one man, waving .,.eir
flags and shouting wildly. Ex-Gov-
ernor Frank Black of New York, who
was to deliver the nominating speech
in behalf Of President Roosevelt i'm
mediately started FOR the platform amid
the widest enthusiasm on the part Of
the delegates
Ex-Goveynor ElaelS in presenting the

Managers of state and local fairs can
do nothing better than provide build
ings and other suitable quarters which
should be set aside exclusively for
women and children, says American
Agriculturist. At the New York state
fair last fall in the woman's building
was a well equipped room in which
women could rest or leave very young
children in the care Of competent at
tendants for a short time. Many cribs
were furnished and at all times during
the fair they were constantly occupied.
In another part of the same building
was thoroughly equipped hospital in
charge Of resident physician and two
nurses

To destroy bugs many prefer to use
one pound of paris green thoroughly
mixed in 200 pounds Of land plaster for
the first application, says Wisconsin
farmer in American Cultivator Wehaye
only used tablespoon level full of paris
green in twelve quarts of water, APP
plying it with the hand sprinkler, KNAPP
sack automatic sprayer and horse
sprayer. There perhaps may be more
danger of this destroying the foliage
than with plaster, but it has been sug-
gested that one pound Of fresh COM
mon lime used with every pound Of
paris green in water win counteract
the injury the paris green might do on
the plants.
The Morris County chronicle. [volume] (Morristown, N.J.) 1877-1915, 1904-06-28

Farmers should be careful and have
their haying machinery in readiness
for use when wanted, SO as not to cause
unnecessary delay. AS help will be
scarce, there will be more necessity for
having good and adequate machinery
for the work, says American Cultiva-
tor.
If the crop is heavy and green, as it
will be if cut early. the work of cur
ing can be greatly facilitated by the

Water constitutes about two-thirds
of the weight of the body and enters
into the composition Of all the tissues
and fluids. To keep the necessary pro
portion, large quantity needs to be
ingested. One of the great dietetic err
rors is the neglect to take sufficient
quantity. The amount found in foods
is insufficient. and about five cnpfuls
should be taken daily in beverages. A
vegetable diet diminishes the need of
water, while one composed largely Of
animal food increases this need.
