Defending the recent act denying
delinquent taxpayers the right to vote
in town or village meetings, the Mont
pelier Journal says: -
A town is a corporation. Private
corporations do not allow men to vote
and assist in directing business unless
they hold stock and thereby are giving
support to the company. Why should
the town give votes TO men who do |
not own stock in its businessp The
state has unquestionably a perfect |
right to restrict suffrage as it has done
in this act, and it Is not likely to re-
greet its decision.
The state undoubtedly has the right
which 1t has in this case exerted. It
has the right to decree that
the delinquent taxpayer shall not cum
b II the earth, and to provide for his
speedy taking off. It is merely a
question of policy. The delinquent
.axpayer cannot be fairly contrasted
with the stakeholder IN a corporation,

Certain people are concerned about
the Republication OF President Roose-
velt-some OF them think be is turning
Democrat. And all because he is adj
vocating measures that are aimed at
abuses perpetrated by the great cor
porations of the country. and because
he favors tariff revision in the near
future. 1t is true that the measures
are of a radical tendency, but so must
they be to effect the desired result In
the opinion of the mass OF his country
men, Roosevelt does not 90 further
than conditions demand in favoring
federal regulation OF corporations
doing an interstate business, and in
providing for reasonable rates upon
interstate railroads. His object is not
to harass or destroy any corporation
doing an honest, legitimate business
in fair way, but to make sure that its
business is done in that very way,
instead OF leaving it to run wild. The
Roosevelt plan will create another
issue, soon to be met. An effort viii
be made to throw in a great scare
among wage earners, bank depositoFs,
insurance policy holders, ETC., that
such legislation as he proposes will
mean loss and ruin to them, but the
real purpose is TO beat the measures
because they mean an inter
ference by government that is not
welcomed by the magnates. In this
The latter are unwise, for it means
either government control now, or
government ownership later.

Selection Versus Feeding.

A bulletin of the Connecticut Expert
ment Station says:
During the five years covered by
these records, the variety and amounts
or food and the care of the herd have
been much the same. The increase in
the net profits from $1.23 loss in 1899 to
SILICA profit in 1908 must be attributed
to the selection of animals better
suited to dairy purposes. The average
cost Of animals added to the herd
since 1899 is S42.50 What change in
the system Of feeding or caring for
the herd would have resulted in as
large an increase in net profit? There
is no reason why the results secured
from this herd cannot be secured by
the average farmer"
We think the above is we'll worth be-
ing considered by our readers. There
are many herds of dairy cows that are
In the same condition as was the sta
tion herd referred to before improve
ment in the quality of COWS began. II
lost money for the owner and that is
true of many a herd of cows on our
farms. There is this difference, that
at the station 1t was known just how
much money the cows were losing.
A good many people say that the
breed is in the feed, but when system
of feeding is about perfect the work
of selection must begin. The select
ing Of good COWS for the dairy herds
would soon bring up the prices of good
cows and bring down the prices OF
poor cows. This would result in send
ing to market the poor cows and keep
ing the good ones on the farms. AS II
is now the farmer and the butcher dis
criminate but little between the good
cow and the poor COW. Good cows go
to the butcher Unfortunately, and
good cows and poor cows are kept on
the farm indiscriminately.
Feeding Is a science worthy Of be-
ing studied, but it can never take the
place Of selection and breeding. The
breeder has large part to play yet in
the improving of our dairy herds, and
the selector also has a large role to
play. II an experiment station can
make the improvement in its herd 1t
did in four years, certainly every farm
er can afford to take up the matter OF
selection at once. The price paid per
cow as noted was little over $42, but
1t must be remembered that the cows
displaced brought something.

Washinu Milk Utensils.

Milk utensils should be washed first
in tcpid water, and good stiff brush
should be kept handy for the purpose
of scrubbing at this stage Of The
cleansing operations. Soda dissolved
in warm water greatly helps matters
at this time, especially if the milk
utensils have stood dirty for some
time. In bottling plants where the
bottles come back with milk stuck to
them that has been there for day or
so the bottles are soaked in water for
several hours, soda having been first
dissolved in the water. In the bright
ening of such vessels, salt is one Of
the best things to be used for scOur-
ing. In the cleansing of milk vessels,
cloths should be avoided, and they
should certainly never be used to wipe
the vessels dry with. They are likely
to contain too many germs to mako
their use safe. These germs will be

count for a month and when the milk
