ed the question Of the comparative
value of the several foods given to
swine and gave the results obtained
by his experiments with corn, clover,
cowpeas, alfalfa, Canada psas, bran,
etc. He sought to show that it is
10 ore profitable to The farmer 10 feed
his corn to his hogs and sell the pork
than to sell the corn. He also gave
his experience as to the tattening
qualities Of the several foods enumerat-

Mr.. Edward Van Alstyne spoke On
Rational Cattle Feed" He said the
best plan was to have fewer cows and
better ones and spoke At length on
the fee ding of green foods, dry food
and grain. He argued that there
was a vast difference in keeping COWS
for production and keeping them for
profit. He said tbs best food for milk
was pasture grass and that COWS could
do their best on natural foods. He
suggested the use OF silage, early
fodder, timothy and alfalfa to make
the cows look we'll and for making
the food cheaper and bringing good
results. He advised the raising of
alfalfa and said that every farmer
should try it.

Fourth Day of July-ers,

AS has been their custom for years,
the following well known citizens and
dyed-in-the-wool Democrats will cele-
brate the coming fourth Of July with
much ecldt. Why? Because it is their
birthday. They propose to "enter all
rings and go all the gaits' from start
to finish-that is, If they keep the
faith and do not fall by the wayside.
OF course all are not of the same age,
but each have seen the roses bloom,
blossom and fade away many times and
many years, suffice it to say they are
no spring chickens''-not by many
full moons. The boys will go into
executive session quite a number Of
times during the day and will help
make Mexico a city right away, or else
make it look like 30 cents for day.
The veil will be lifted and the eagle
will scream. In fact, the following
brilliant array of talent, brains and
push, will be there with the goods and
help the Eagles make the day gala
one: Col. Bob Kemp, Col. Gale Berry,
Col. Joe Ware, Col. Ed. Dermody, DR..
]. Rule Fritts, DR.. Jim Garrett and
Col. AL. Bennett. Col Kemp is to
head and guide the bunch and Col.
Berry will be toast-master. D.

THE Troy Mol Free Press editori-
ally says; "a number Of our exchanges
are in error when they say that it is
unlawful for stock to run at large
anywhere in the State. The stock
law is in effect only in those counties
which have adopted it by a vote Of
the people and the only change made
in this law by the last legislature is
In the matter Of restraining stock
ANY person may take up stock run
ming at large unlawfully, and 1t is, by
the recent change, made the special
duty of the constable to do SO. A
man who does not like to take up his
neighbours stock can now avoid that
unpleasant task by notifying the Con-
stable OF his township.

Longest Dav of the Year.

June 21, was the longest day in the
year, when the sun reached the north
ern limit Of the summer solStice-in
other words, the point at which it is
farthest from the equator. 1t reach
ed its northern limit at 1854 o'clock p.
m. Sometimes the crossing of the
line" as some call it, occurs after mid
night, and this makes June % the
longest day. Each day from now on
the sun is supposed to travel farther
south in its daily course, but for
several days the difference in the
length Of the days will not be per-
ceptible. There will be only few sec
onds difference each day at the most.

IS THIS A SQUARE npA1

/ NhhNaED Evening Post
Every time President Roosevelt has
spoken In favor of giving the Inter.
s'a'e Commerce Commission power to
nN railway rates he has qualified his
recommendation with the assertion
that all railway regulation must nro.
VIDE q square deal" for the carrier
as well as for the shipper, which is
consistent with public sentiment,
The case Of the National Hay Associ.
atlon against the Lake Shore and
Michigan Southern Railroad affords
PROOF That The Esch- Townsend bill
does not afford square deal.
10 this case a complaint was made
10 The Interstate Commerce Commis.
sion In 1900 that the rate charged by
tne Lake Shore on hay from Michigan
ana other western points to the sea-
ooard was unreasonable, and the com.
mission ordered a reduction of the
rate The company appealed the case,
ana this spring Judge Wing, Of the
United States District Court, render
ca decision In favor of the railroad
While Judge Wing based his decls.
Ion on the fact that the Interstate
Commerce Commission did not have
authority under the law to fix the
rate he stated that careful study Of
the evidence seemed TO justify the
contention Of the railroad that It's
rate under all circumstances was
"fair and reasonable. /" 1t may be as
sumed, therefore, that if the case had
been tried ON its merits the reasonable
ness OF the rate would have been
found the same.
NOW, here comes the point. Inves-
tigation shows that, il the commits
slon's rate had become effective i'm
mediately upon its announcement
as would have been the case If the
Esch-Townsend bill had been In force
as law-the Lake Shore company
would have lost on hay shipments
handled at the reduced rate between
S600,O 900 and 500. 900, as compared with
the revenue received at the rate which
has been in effect and which SO far
has been judlcially found "fair and
reasonable"
Further investigation reveals the
TACT that the loss to the lines east of
Chicago on bay shipments alone under
The rate prescribed by the Interstate
Commerce Commission in this case
would have approximated $40, 900, 900
Would 1t have been a square dealn
TO reduce the earnings Of the rail- |
roads by $40, 900, 900 on a single COM
modify pending a decision, with no |
possibility that they would ever re-
cover II In case the commissions or
Ter was overruled?
Between individuals such PROPOSE |
ion would not admit Of moments
question. Are not the railroads entl-
lied TO the same consideration, the
'ame square deal" during the deter
ninatlon OF their right TO a fair and |
compensation for services
endered as are individuals or private
IL would seem that their intimate
Citations with every element contrib
ltlng 10 the development and pros.
'erity OF the country demand that
hey be safe.guarded by Congress and
he courts from any form of injustice
hat would inevitably cripple them as

The Benefit Which the Children oi
the United States Have Received
From Pe-ru-na Can Never Be
Put Into Words.

The chronic ailments it has prevented,
the suffering it has mitigated, will
never be fully recorded.
But at least this much can be said that
the coming generation owes great
debt to Peruna, for it is in the tender
years of youth that slight ailments are
liable to develop into lasting disease,
thus blasting the whole career of the
Individual.
The mothers who are bringing up their
children to-day TO believe in Peruna
are doing great work for humanity.
These children broughtup to believe
in Peruna from the start, will, when
they become heads of families them
selves, use Peruna with unquestioning
fafNh
