Other cities in Michigan seem to have
no trouble in enforcing the slot machine
law Hardly day passes without a
report from some city or village to the
effect that the machines have been
seized and destroyed. Owosso can get
no nearer to an enforcement of the law
than to have constant pickering in the
council over the adoption of an ordi-
nance to drive the machines out. Why
not do like other places? If the law is
good at one point in the State it ought
to be good for ALL Out with the
machines

Ordinarily William E. Curtis, special
correspondent of the Chicago Record
Herald. is well posted and his statements
are to be relied upon. However he is
apparently not well informed as to the
sugar beet industry In referring to
the strenuous opposition of the manu-
facturers of beet sugar to the reduction
Of the duty on raw sugar coming from
the Philippines, he says: "The beet
sugar men of Michigan are the most
vociferous, Notwithstanding the big
profits they are paying to their share
holders" A dividend would certainly
surprise most shareholders.

prosecuting attorney of this county
have never been excelled by any prose-
cutor. During the entire four years
but three persons brought by him as
prosecutor into the circuit court were
acquitted. And this record is not so
much the record of a successful GRIM
inal lawyer attempting to make great
list of convictions as it is the record of
judicial prosecutor, careful to bring
no person into court who was not in
his opinion guilty of the crimes charged
against him and then not unless in his
Judgment such action was warranted
by the evidence. This record alone
meant the saving of many dollars to
the county and further item is found
in the fact that not a single dollar was
paid by the county during his terms for
any outside assistance in the prosecu-
ton of any cases. On the other hand
so closely did he watch the places where
any small leaks might occur that more
money was paid into the county treas
ury on account of forfeited recognize
ances than his salary as prosecutor
amounted to, and in fact more than had
previously been paid into the county
treasury during its entire history.
1t is eminently fitting that such
legal and political career should be
rounded out by position on the bench
of the county in which his life work has
been done, and that this should be done
by the party he served so long and with
such unselfsh honesty. That he would
be just and upright judge with never
faint of corruption about his court
every persons who knows William M.
Fitzpatrick at all will be ready to vouch,
while the fear that favoritism or par
TALLY would be shown any man or set
of men would never be suggested.

The last issue of the Sugar Beet Cul-
surist was largely devoted to the inter-
ests OF the Owosso Sugar Co. Beside
a number of articles relating to the
growing of sugar beets the paper con-
tanned several letters from farmers who
have grown beets for the Owosso and
Lansing plants, long list of last years
growers with the acreage and amount
received, ETC. A large number of extra
copies were mailed to farmers in this
part of the state. It is to be hoped
renewed interest in the raising Of beets
may result. Copies of the paper may
be had of the Sugar Co.

1t is desired by the officers of the ma
tional grange and other agricultural
organizations that Washington's birth
day observance shall especially include
considerations for the betterment Of the
farm and home and factory. There is
always value in united, thoughtful con-
sideration relating to affairs with which
the daily lives of those who should do
the thinking are connected but the con-
trolling Importance of the subjects pro-
posed for consideration and discussion
on the coming anniversary of the birth
day of he who was first in the hearts Of
his countrymen, will attach to their re-
view unusual dignity and value. What
ever shall tend toward the real better
ment of the American home and the
American farm is of far greater import
ance than questions relating to the up
building of our army or navy; and
whatever will add to the prosperity Of
the American factory and make happier
and better the conditions of those who
are employed therein, will directly and
indirectly add to the prosperity and
happiness of all the people of our
country, regardless of location or occu-
patton. 1t is to be sincerely hoped that
the discussions and considerations of
Farm, Home and Factory day." will
be sincere and broad as the subject de-

MRS. MYERS WAS CONVICTED
The Jury mt Liberty, NO., Found
Her Guilty of the Murder of
Her Husband.

Liberty Mo, June i2.-The jury
which has been sitting for the past
we@f in the case of Agnes Myers, Of
Kansas City. charged with the murder
of her husband. Clarence Myers, re-
turned verdict, Sunday, of guilty of
murder in the first degree. The verdict
means that the death penalty-hang-
ing-is to be inflicted. When the jury
retired at II o'clock Saturday night it
stood ten for conviction and two for
acquttal. The jury continued its con-
sideration of the case intermittently
throughout the night, and the deliber-
ations continued for several hours
Sunday. II was not until the most urg
ent arguments were presented by the
ten men in favor of conviction that the
other two were prevailed upon 10
change their votes.
The crime for which Mrs. Myers was
convicted was one of the most afro
cious ever committed, According 10
the story of her paramour, Frank Hott-
man. who confessed to being an ac-
complice with Mrs. Myers in the mur-
der of her husband the crime was pre-
meditated and was executed in the most
brutal manner Hoffman was tried
last February for he crime and was
convicted, and is now awaiting the
death penalty.

CUTS LOOSE FROM SWEDEN
The Norwegian Stofthing Declares
Union With Sweden Ended.
The Authority of King Oscar Ucpu-
dated and n Provisional Gov
crnment Established.

Christiana, Norway, June 9.-Nor
way has cut loose from Swedish rule
The storthing, or Norwegian parla-
ment, has declared the union between
the two countries dissolved, repudiated
the authority of King Oscar and estab-
lished provisional Norwegian govern
ment by empowering the present state
council to exercise until further no
tice, the power hitherto vested in the
king.
The immediate cause of the present
breach between Sweden and Norway is
the kings refusal TO grant the storth-
ing's demand for separate diplomatic
representation for Norway.
The real cause Of the trouble is far
deeper than this however The Nor
wegians have long maintained that
Sweden has persistently infringed on
their governmental powers, and that
Norway has practically been exploited
for Sweden's benefit.
Whether Sweden will submit quietly
to Norway's secession is as yet ques-
tion. 1t is certain that Sweden has not
anticipated so radical move, and that
the storthings action will come as a
complete surprise to the Swedish gov
ernment.
The storthing adopted an address to
the king, declaring that no i'll feeling
is entertained against him, his dynasty
or the Swedish nation, and asking him
to cooperate in the selection of a
young prince of the house of Berna-
dotte to occupy the throne of Norway.

G-WEANIMG POINTS.
Young Shoats May Be Fed Blood
Warm Slop When Three Weeks
Old, and Wcaned at Six.

When pigs are some three weeks old
they would be given blood warm slop
made with skim milk and middlings.
Adding a little blood meal will show
good results, This must be fed in
small trough to which the mother has
no access. The little fellows will not
eat much at three weeks of age, yet we
generally begin TO feed them then and
think it desirable to do so, says f. A.
Strohschein. in Farmers Review. After
six weeks the pigs viii eat fairly well
and many then wean them. This is real
ly too soon They should stay with
their mothers till they are at least eight
weeks old It is very seldom that some
good plan to remove the strong ones
and let the weaker ones suck o few
weeks longer This will make the whole
lot more even, and they will sell better
in the fall When weaning the pigs do
not pen them, but give them all the free
dom possible
For several years we have let our pigs
run with their mothers until the old
sows undertook the weaving them
selves. Pigs treated in this way will
make remarkable growth. Of course
when a fall litter is to be raised such a
practice cannot be followed. We are
able to feed our sows cheaply with skim
milk and pasture, otherwise 1t might be
cheaper to separate the pigs from the
sows after eight weeks and fatten and
sell them as soon as !. ssible.

ABOUT SHOCKING WHEAT.
Details Make the Work Three-Foli
More Simple When Followed
to the Letter.

Most people are probably familiar, IN
a general way. with The principles and
methods used in wheat shocking Yet
there are details. the conformation TO,
or neglect of, which makes all the dif-
ference between q frst-ClaSS JOB and
poor one. wish TO show here some
of the details which make for convent
ence and excellence in the work. find
the following plan OF setting up
shock most satisfactory: Set down
four bundles in a row, and follow with
one in the middle on each side. NOW
place bundle in each OF the four
vacant places. and put on two caps.
For caps. select bundles with long
straws above the bands. They will
cover the shock better, and will not
fall off so easily. Place the heads Of
the caps in the direction from which
the strongest winds blow If the heads
face the wind, the caps will not blow
off as readily as they will if the butts
face It.
Here are a few general suggestions,
SAYS the Rural New Yorker. If tho
shock has been set up as here directed,
il will contain II bundles. Experience
teaches that this is very nearly the
right number Some little variation,
OF course. is allowable But If shock
is much smaller IT lacks stability. and
the same is true If the shock Is much
larger. especially II the wheat is dead
ripe. When the wheat is dead ripe, the
heads stand out, and, especially in
large shock. the bundles are liable to
fall down. If the heads stand out, II
is a good plan TO hug the shock tight
ly before Gaping In larSc shock
slightly green wheat is apt TO mold.
When starting n shock, If convenient,
start Il in the middle Of the bunch OF
bundles. This will save the time ard
labor involved in carrying bundles
around The shock. II practicable, put
shocks in exactly straight rows This
will not increase the yield but Will
make II easier TO get at in hauling
from the field. II pushed for time, how
ever put shocks whore most convent
ent One cannot afford in so practical
matter as wheat shocking 10 sacri-
fee economy for neatness. To AVOID
dampness as much as possible, place
shocks ont of depressions. While II is
true that only the butts would be wet
by the surface water II is also true
that shock, once wet. will dry out
more quickly on dry than on damp
ground.
If the foregoing suggestions are fol
lowed In shocking wheat. two very de-
sirable things will, think, ho accom-
plshed. The work will be done with
a minimum Of time and energy, and n
first-c job of work will be done.

BETTER FEELING EXISTS.
More scnsonuhlc weather I.as
Brought About "Bcttcr Feel
ing" In business.

New York, June TO- Bradstreet's Is
weekly review says:
The situation this week may be
summed up in the phrase, better feel
ing" which is predicated on rather
mere seasonable weather, allowing bet
ter crop progress, larger volume OF
retail trade and improved recorder
business at wholesale These in turn
are reflected in a more assured tone
as to fall business in distributive lines
Relatively best advices come from sur
plus cereal crop producing regions, but
the feeling at the south Is likewise
better Against this is to-be noted
some temporary quieting, due TO rains
or cold weather in the northwest, the
lake region and the east, while new
business in iron and steel is smaller
and prices are easing. All measures OF
trade movement still point unmstak-
ably to large gains in all lines over 6
year ago
Crop reports confirm last weeks in
timations OF a turn for the better in
winter wheat, corn and cotton croE
prospects,
