Some weeks ago, the Pioneer had
the hardihood to suggest that the
farmer who raises stock on the side
should devote more attention to
raising fodder crops for his cattle.
A contemporary severely criticised
this paper for its remarks, and in
sisted that there was no use for
fodder crops. But the farmers who
have practical experience side with
the Pioneer, and many of them are
fgurinR what they shall plant to
supplement their hay.crop for next
season. The Dakota Farmer editor
who is a practical man, suggests
that fodder corn in North Dakota
stands we'll ahead of any other crop
of forage. Millet comes next, and
oat hay in the bundle close to it.
He says:-Oats should be cut not
later than when the very fist gray
kernels show and be bound the
same as oats or it will be too strawy.
Mihet'is a warn weather plant and
can be sown later than small grain.
This, too, should be cut not later
than when the first ripening kernels
show and be bound same as oats and
cured in bigshocks. If pretty green
and weather moist, long shocks
north and south are the best, tho
they bleach out more than large
round. we'll -capped shocks. Both
millet and oat hay cure out better
in bundles in the Dakotas than
further east.-Mandan Pioneer.

BALL TELLS CHICAGO TIME.
Government Instrument on Masonic
Temple Is Known to But
Few Citizens.

He stood at Randolph and Clark streets
gazing intently at the roof of the Ma
sonic Temple. In one hand he held his
watch. A passing acquaintance slapped
him on the shoulder and asked if he had
become a star gazer, relates the Record.
Herald.
Nope" was the reply and he returned
to the stare into space.
what are you looking for? Are you
crazy?"
"Nope," again; waiting for noon so
can set my watch"
Quite a crowd gathered around him
snd all curiously gazed into space. They
could see nothing but they waited for de-
velopments, continuing to gaze aloft
The crowd increased until it blocked the
sidewalk. Still he stood, watch in hand
More people stopped to gaze and wonder.
Finally his friend said:
''Tell me what you are waiting for, peo-
pie will think you are crazy"
'Well," he said, do you see that big
ball at the top of the pole on the Masonic
Temple? That ball is set up there by the
government. Promptly at noon, Chicago
time, man at Washington presses a
key. That releases the ball and it fails,
giving Chicago official government
time" Before his friend could speak the
ball fell into its socket The man set his
watch and walked on. AS he crossed the
street the crossing policeman called out:
"Say, you! Don't get around so soon
tomorrow. If you collect crowd there
every day I'll get called down by the SER
geant. If do you'll be locked up for OBJ
structing the sidewalk"
And still only few of Chicago's thou
sands are aware of the fact that Wash
ington notifies all Chicago of the noon
hour by dropping big ball on the roof
of the Masonic Temple

TAGGART is CHAIRMAN.
Indiana Man Elected Head of the
Democratic National Com
mittee.

New York, July 27.-Thomas Tag.
CART, of Indiana, was unanimously
elected chairman of the democratic
national committee Tuesday. The
meeting had not been in session long
before this action was taken. All eff
forts to induce Senator German to
take the place failed. Urey Woodson,
of Kentucky, was elected secretary of
the committee. Edwin Soften, of the
District of Columbia, was elected as
sistant secretary. John l. Martin, Of
Missouri, was elected sergeant-at-
arms, and Samuel Donelson, of Ten
nessee, was elected assistant sergeant
alarms. Both were placed in nom
ination for the first place, but on mo-
ton of Senator Bailey the two were
elected to the positions named.
A motion was made for the selection
of two vice chairmen, one to have
charge of the eastern headquarters
and the other the western headQuar-
tiers. William +. Sheehan, who was
present as proxy, moved to leave the
whole matter to the executive commits
tee and 10 the chairman OF the ma
tional committee, with power to i'll
crease the number of the executive
committee and to select special COM
mittees for different sections of the
country in the judgment of the eXecu-
tive committee, if sucn action was
necessary. This prevailed and it Will
allow the formation of special cam
paign committee or finance committce
In New York or any other organiza-
ton that the executive committee may
consider necessary.
No conclusion was reached regard
ing the appointment OF an executive
committee, but it is expected that the
committee will be named after the
visit to Esopus and consultations with
Judge Parker. The executive commit
tee may be members of the national
committee or others, in the discretion
of the chairman. The selection of a
treasurer for the national committee
was left to the executive committee.
The committee then adjourned, subject
to the call of the chair.

initiative. Peace negotiations, begun
by the teamsters' committee in the
morning, came to nothing in second
conference with the employers late in
the day. No further joint meetings
are in prospect.
In the evening the transfers local
met and decided to take no action till
word is received from the joint council
at Indianapolis. On a ballot all eX-
cept IA of the 800 members of the
union favored a sympathetic strike.
AS compromise motion was adopted
to telegraph Immediately to Indian
apolis asking permission of the joint
council to strike.
Transfers Quit.
Chicago, July 27-One thousand team
sters employed by the Chicago packing
houses received permission shortly be-
fore midnight from the transfers joint
council and the executive committee Of
the International Brotherhood of Team
sters to join in sympathetic strike with
the butcher workmen. The strike went
into effect at 1870 o'clock this morning.
At the same hour 1000 teamsters in
Kansas City, 400 in St. Louis and East
St. Louis and 1876 in Boston joined in the
sympathetic movement. The general
union orders that no member in any
branch handle any goods to or from any
of the packing plants. In Chicago this
will involve the grocery and market
drivers, the lumber and box wagon driv-
ers, the truck teamsters, the tallow and
bone wagon teamsters, the bakery
wagon drivers, the ice wagon drivers, the
railway express drivers, and other locals.
The plan of the union leaders is to shut
off the packers in every way possible.
Much Rioting.
After day of peace in the stockyards
district, there was considerable turbu-
lence in the evening. Three encounters
took place, assaults being committed on
nonunion workers employed in the stock
yards, or men supposed to be. James
Stokes was shot, fatally, it was believed,
in fight with a negro waiter in the
Armour plant.
Many New Men Hired.
During the day the Chicago packers

places left vacant by the butchers and
the workers of the allied trades Recruit
ed mostly in the south, but some of them
being from the east, imported men were
rushed into the stockyards in large num-
bers, and by six p. m. it was said that the
days arrivals already number LOO men.
During the evening many more nonunion
men were taken into the yards under
police protection, and at midnight it was
estimated that the packers had filled the
places of 1900 or more strikers. AS in
contrast to the gains made by the Chi
cago packing houses. sympathetic strikes
of the allied trades were called in South
Omaha, St. Joseph and Sioux City. In
Kansas City 100 butchers deserted the
union and returned to work.

WEATHER FAVORABLE.
Crop Conditions Are Reported to Be
Excellent-Corn Makes Good
Growth,

Washington, July 27-The weekly
crop report of the weather bureau, is
sued Tuesday, is as follows:
While rather cool for best results
in the lake region and portions of the
central valleys, with lack of sunshine
and too much rain in the middle At
lantic and central gulf states, the
weather conditions of the week end
ing July rs, as a whole, were favor
able. Limited areas in the south At
lantic states, Tennessee and the Ohio
and upper Missouri valleys and north
Pacific coast need rain. With the ex-
ception OF portions of the central Mis-
souri, valley, excellent weather for har-
vesting and threshing prevailed in the
central valleys, where harvesting is
nearly finished and threshing has
made rapid progress. Quite generous
and much needed rains occurred in the
middle and southern Rocky mountain
districts, partially relieving the se-
we're and protracted drought
While higher temperature in the ex-
IRENE northern portion of the corn
belt would have been more favorable,
corn has made excellent growth and is
in most promising condition generally
throughout the corn belt.
With another week of favorable
weather for harvesting and threshing,
this work has advanced satisfactorily,
the harvesting of winter wheat being
nearly completed in the more north
erly sections.
Dat harvest has continued under
favorable conditions and is nearing
completion in the lower Missouri and
Mississippi valleys. In the mora
northerly sections the maturing crop
is very promising.
Nearly all reports indicate an abun-
dant crop of hay, which for the most
part is being secured in excellent con.
ditiOn

AUSTRALIANS EASY GOING.
Sun Is So Hot on the Island Continent
the People Are Deficient
in Energy.

An isolated Englishman would al
ways remain an Englishman if his des-
ert island were in the north Atlantic.
There is saying, however, writes Sid
ney Letter, in Montreal Herald, that
an Englishman drops his morals when
he crosses the equator. That is pretty
rough on those who live here down
UNDER" but it need not be interpreted
more literally than to hint at the in
fiuence of climate on character. There
is nothing new in that theory, at least
since the days of Buckle The idea
usually held, however, is that it is only
a climate of rigorous cold that can
breed good men. On that ground, Can
adams can look to the future of their
race with confidence, knowing that the
virtues of energy, industry, determina-
ton and hardihood will inspire the
generations yet unborn. But the fiercest
and longest winter does not call forth
that grim courage, patient determina-
ton and unbreakable hopefulness
which alone can carry a man safely
through a seven-year. Australian
drought.
There are, l think, few settlers in
Canada who would stagger stolidly on
like an Australian when he saw his
sheep dying by thousands and not a
blade of green or drop of water on
his holding. Even for the city man
in his office it needs more resolution
and concentration of mind to do a
IN OF,
phere of 100 degrees than it needs to
face your widest winter storm. Yet
slowly but surely, as the generations
follow each other, this southern sun
will wither Australian energies. You
see it now in the lounging gait of those
you meet on the streets. Commercial
men who come to Australia all COM
ment on the easy-going way in which
business is conducted.
People out here not only do not hus-
tie themselves, but they do not bother
their heads about anyone who does.
Often one has to make repeated calls
on man to settle matter of business
that might easily have been arranged
in five minutes. Punctality and dis
patch, however, are not Australian
qualities No person goes to work be-
fore nine o'clock in the morning, and
many business men, like the fountains
in Trafalgar square and the clerks in
the foreign office, play only from ten
to four. 1t is all very we'll for the
new chum to laugh at this, but after
year or two he may find that he, too,
has lost the secret of the strenuous
life
Of course, if Australians were wise
they would adapt themselves more
than they do to the peculiarities of
their climate. A noon siesta is just as
! suitable to Australia as it is to
Spain or Italy or India. Far more
could be accomplished in the day if
business was begun early in the morn
ing and suspended during the heat of
the day, But, shackled by custom, the
Australians keep not only to the old
British working hours, but to plum
pudding at midsummer Christmas and
the conventional silk hat and frock coat
for street wear, But though they may
stubbornly defy the climate in these
respects, they cannot resist it's more
subtle influence on the general charac-
ter.
