Indians Can Drink.

A recent decision Of the sup
RENE court Of the United States
is to the effect that Indians, who
have received allotment are
citizens of the United States, and
as much, cannot be deprived OF
any Of the rights OF a citizen. AS
a necessary sequence, liquor deal
ers cannot be fined or otherwise
punished for selling liquor to citi-
zens of a state, where there is no
local prohibitionlaw to contrary.
This decision it seems will inter
fere with the senl-annual har-
vest Of the United States Mar
shals who have been in the habit
of taking a small army of wit
nesses to Madison twice a year
to testify against some one who
Vilas County news. [volume] (Eagle River, Vilas County, Wis.) 1896-1927, 1905-05-01

has sold liquor to Indians. The
law prohibiting the selling to
Indians is still on the statute
books, but under the decision is
plainly illegal. Arrests can still
be made as in the past, but the
liquor dealer who is willing to
carry it to the highest court will
undoubtedly get clear.-Rhine-
lander New North.

Farmers Should Grow More Barley
BY r. A. Moore, Wisconsin Experiment Station.
(From The Wisconsin Farmer
(F'rom The Wisconsin Farmer }

yielders and most profitable
barleys to grow for all purposes.
Barley should be sown on rich
soil, fall plowed preferred. The
land should be thoroughly disc
ed and a mellow seed beed pre-
pared. Sow with drill or broad
cast seeder, using from one and
one-half to two bushels per acre;
the lighter sowing should be on
the richer soil to prevent lodg-
ing. Do not sow before the
ground is in good condition. The
larger portion Of the barley IN
wisconsin is sown from April
Goth to May 1st
Baeley is the very best nurse
crop that can be grown with
alfalfa or clovers. when SO used
not more thru one bushel per
acre should be sOwn.
Cutting should not be delayed
until the grain is too ripe, as the
straw becomes brittle near the
head and much of the grain Is
lost. After harvesting it should
be placed in shocks and capped,
as the barley will have a better
color if protected this way. Care
should be taken to get the barley
under proper cover soon after
harvesting. lit materially III
lures the sale if discolored by
heavy dews or rains.
Barley is a good crop 60 follow
corn or root crops when the
desire is to seed down to any OF
the grasses.
The Manshlmy barleyis grown
most extensively in this state
and is the most popular. Ahigh
protein barley is now being
grown by the experiment station
which surpasses the Manshury
in quality and is a strong rival
in yield per acre.
It seems to be a wise plan for
many farmers to unite in grow
ing the same variety of barley,
as these localities soon become
known to buyers and a ready
sale at the top price is theresult.
when farmers insist on grow
ing various varieties the barley
lacks uniformity, is not eagerly
sought for and invariably sells
at a lower price.
Vilas County news. [volume] (Eagle River, Vilas County, Wis.) 1896-1927, 1905-05-01

wisconsin is one of the three
great barley states and the sale
of this cereal brings to the farm
ers of the state 100000 an
rwaaly. So favorably impressed
is the winter with the barley
crop that it seems more care and
attention SHOULD he given to this
cereal in our grain raisingstates.
More pounds of barley, on an
average, can be raised per acre
than OF any of the grains.
The larger portion OF Wis
consin farmers grow barley for
the market, which is not the
most excellent plan. More at
tention should be given to this
cereal as a stock food. On the
Pacific slope barley is fed most
exclusively to horses with good
results. when used as a feed for
horses the barley is usually tax
en- to mills and the grain crushed
between rollers SO as to make
the naastieation more easy. If
grouaad the meal is somewhat
sticky and ia this condition can
not be readily eaten by the horse,
but where crushed it makes an
ideal feed. AS a feed for hogs
and sheep it cannot be beaten
and we'll may the farmer pay
more attention to its growth.
Ra4ley should be graded with
tanning mill or grain grader be
fore sowing; the Light kernels
should be removed as far as
possible. when this has been
done a test should be made to
determine the terminating pow
er and vitality of the seed as a
guide to the amount per acre to
SOW.
If the farmer is obliged to pur-
chase his seed grain he should
send in advance to his seedmaR
and get samples; after testing
purchase that which gives a ger
minating test of from 90 to loo
per ceat and shows strong vitali-
ty.
After earring Ola trials with a
score or more varieties Of barley
at'the station for several years I
feel eorvinced that the six-rowd
bearded barleys are the greatest

Archbishop Keane Received By Pope.

The pope on Friday received in
private audience the Most Rev. John
j. Keane. archbishop OF Dubuque.
Iowa. The audience took place in the
private library of the pope, who had
the archbishop sit next to him. His
holiness spoke in the most cordial
manner for half an hour, displaying
great interest in the report of the work
of the diocese presented by the arch
bishop and inquiring about the condi-
tion of the clergy and the character
of the people. His holiness empha-
sized the importance of inducing the
American people to abstain from in.
toxicating liquors and practice the
fundamental virtue of temperance.
The pope sent his blessing to the tenn
perance workers, not only of Dubuque
but of the entire United States. The
conversation having turned on the
subject of the papal note regarding the
exclusive singing of sacred music by
male choirs in the Catholic churches
of the United States, the pope declared
that while his note enunciated the
principle of the rules to be followed,
he fully accepted the fact that its prac-
tical application must be gradual and
slow. The pontiff said that knowing
Archbishop Keane TO be a personal
friend of President Roosevelt. he
would beg him to present the presi-
dent his respectful and affectionate
good wishes for both Mr.. Roosevelt
and his country.

The smallest and most isolated Of
American possessions is Brooks Island
in the Pacific Ocean, 3, 800 miles west
of San Francisco. 1t was discovered
and claimed in 1859 but never oc-
cupied until 1908, when it was
utilized as a station with ten operators
for the trans Pacific cable. 1t is about
two miles across, 40 feet above the
tide, and rocky reef keeps the waves
from submerging it during great

The Iowa Supreme Court holds that
liquids containing any portion OF
alcohol, however small it may be. are
Intoxicating and that hop ale, and
the many so-called soft drinks con-
tanning small amount of alcohol,
come under the ban of the mulct law.
"The statute specifically declares
alcohol is an Intoxicating liquor, +"
saws the court, land proof that liquor
used as n beverage contains alcohol is
sufficient to establish its character as
Intoxicating liquor, however much
the alcohol may be diluted or how
ever weak its Intoxicating effect as
a beverage may be. The statute so
declares ana 1t is conclusive. !"
The Court also holds that partition

purpose of bringing the room used
outside the fifty-foot radius from the
property the owners of which refuse
to consent to saloon, or 300 feet
from school or church, are illegal.
