There is more catarrh in this Sec

CHOOSING a Stallion.

Considerable trouble has been ex-
perienced by persons in various parts
of this and other states in purchasing
stations to be used for breeding pur-
poses The plan has been somewhat
common for a number of persons to
unite in purchasing horse for the
uses named So far the plan is all
right in it's conception but the execu-
ton of the plan in many instances
has been faulty and consequently
trouble has arisen.
Individuals and firms have, in some
instances, sold stations to such COM
panies at price far in advance of the
real worth of the animal sold They
have also sold in some instances
horses that were worthless as foal
getters. When this fact was ascer-
tanned, they have taken back those
horses and sold them to other indi-
viduals or to other companies giving
horse in return that possessed a
pedigree very much inferior and in
some instances inferior in Individual
ity.
These corrupt practices have led to
a demand for legislation which will

Civil Service Commissioners Ex-
plain How Gravedigger Was
Given Job
WOULD PROTECT SECRETARY
In Selection Of Man to Drive the
Distinguishes Iowan's Horses the
Commissioners Say They Were
Actuated Solely by Desire to Pro-
tect the Secretary.
tect the Secretary.

Washington, April 1S.-The recent
alleged gravedigger as coachman to
Secretary of the Treasury Shaw under
certification from the civil service COM
mission resulted in the issuance of g
statement yesterday by Commissioner
Cooley. The statement defends the
three names certified from which Sec
rotary Shaw could choose. 1t shows
that the, alleged gravedigger was for
many years coachman to the superin.
tendent Of the government hospital for
the insane. and Mr.. Cooley states there
could be no criticism Of his ability to
perform the duties of coachman..
Mr.. Cooley then proceeds to show
that the fourth name on the eligible
list was the one Secretary Shaw APP
parently wanted to reach. He comes
to this conclusion because on March II
the treasury department requested the
certification of the name on the ground
that its possessor was distinguished
ly. The name in question was Robert
B. Shepard.
"Under the regulations" continues
Mr.. Cooley 1.-The commission was with
out power to grant the request OF the
secretary, but on it's face it appeared
so reasonable that form of executive
order was prepared to be submitted to
the president, making a special excep-
ton in the case.
"At this point Of the proceedings
Mr.. Separd made the mistake of call
ing at the office of the commission and
exhibiting a letter from the republican
leader of the Twenty third assembly
district of the county of New, eulog-
izing very highly Mr.. Shepard's adj
mirable work for the republican ticket
in the late election and assuring all
whom it might concern that he was
entitled to some recognition.
"The attention of the commission be-
ing called to the case, a further inveS-
tigation of the facts was made before
submitting the order to the president,
which disclosed on Mr.. Shepard's own
sworn statement that there was moth
ing to indicate that he had driven a
horse for several years. 1t seems that
in his younger and unregenerate days
he was valet to John Whalen. a promi-
nent democratic leader in New York
City and counsel to the corporation UNI
der the administration Of Mayor Van
Wyck.
ut appears, however that he saw
the error of his ways and entered the
employment of Alfred Henry Lewis
in the same capacity, the latter having
rendered no inconsiderable service to
the republican party in the last cam
paign. The doctrine imbibed there and
the efforts he was led to put forth
were Of so distinguished a character as
to call forth the praise of the republic
can district leader aforesaid"
Mr.. Cooley concludes as follows:
"Our action in this case was dictated
solely by a desire to guard the secre-
tary of the treasury from possible
physical injury at the hands of the APP
parently inexperienced driver who was
being forced upon him by political in
f1uence and to assure his retention in
the high office for which he is so adj
qualified"

Nervousness
A Prompt and Permanent Cure by
New Method.

Nervousness is condition not easy
to define, but the common everyday
use of the term indicates It's preva-
lence.
Nervousness marks a lack of nerve
force, a lowering of vital energy, and
is the starting point of prostration of
the nerves, brain and vital organs.
Nervousness is not a disease, but
condition caused by exhaustion of
some of the vital elements Of nerve
matter. Wheeler's Nerve Vitalizer
contains all the chemical parts that
make nerves strong and powerful, and
when taken into the stomach they are
liberated in the form of gases which
are taken up by the blood and from
1t absorbed by the nerves. This alb
sorption continues until all the ele-
ments lacking are supplied and health
Is restored.
There is positively no form of nerve
or organic weakness. even Of the most
advanced forms, that will not yield to
the influence of this medicine. Write

A TALK ON DAIRY COWS.

BY Practical Powieshiek County
Dairyman.
Times Republican: What is talloW
worth per pound on q good dairy COW
cared for by a practical dairyman?
Let US take into consideration why
a dairy COW should at certain times be
Well cushioned with tallow. A good
dairy COW should be farrow eight or
ten weeks, IL her owner is good prac-
teal dairyman, he will provide album
dainty for his herd at all times, Wheth-
er farrow or in full milk.
A good dairy COW, and If she is not
good for that purpose and is retained
1t Is the owners fault. He either dld
not know how to, or care to, develop
her along this line; in either case it
is the owners fault.
She should have good and strong
digestion. If she has this she is likely
to have good assimilation and these
two with proper development makes a
typical dairy COW. We are now deal
ing with this kind of a COW. This COW
has been dry for fully eight weeks;
she has been we'll fed and has gotten
quite fat and we'll cushioned with tall
low. What need has she of this when
we are not expecting to butcher her?
Stop, think. She is q manufacturer
of the most skilled, and her machin-
cry Is of the most perfect; it's mechan-
ism works in perfect harmony. She is
now fresh and the process of manu-
featuring commences. The surplus
flesh she carries on her back is worth
commercially but cents a lb. She
ie, Ia, in tho farm of
fat globules and thru the milk veins to
the udder it becomes butter fat, in the
milk worth at this time $500 ton.
This may look unreasonable to those
that make no study along this line and
there are nine out of every ten who
pretend to work along the line OF
dairying that are losers financially be-
cause they make no study of the work.
Some of the nine keep cows. to eat
up what would otherwise be wasted,
and when she has consumed this
wasting product she practically starves
the remainder of the year.
Quite often one of these nine men
will say, Il do not think it pays to.
feed COW thru the winter" God
help them. The country and the
dairy business would be better off if
such men never owned a COW. Their
cows merely exist thru the winter;
owner expects them to do wonders
when the grass grows. AT the first
sight of vestige of green these cows
are turned out to roam all over the
farm, weak from starvation. They
reel as they walk, long, heavy coat
of hair that will stay with them I'M
til about July 1 and hide is all that
covers their bones.
