Complaint OF Man VINO Went TO Fifth street
Police Station,

While Ignatz Rosenberg and his wife
were away from their home in the first
door of % Seventh street yesterday after
noon some one broke into the dining room
and took away several pieces of a silver
dinner set and a dress shirt. Mr.. Rosen-
berg, who Is an architect, thinks that the
shirt was used to wrap the silver in.
He says that after he had a chance to
find out what had been taken he called up
Police Headquarters and asked TO be con-
nected with the Fifth street police station.
He told a "a in that station house about
the robbery and vas told, he says, that a
over.
After an hours wait he went to the station
house and asked the sergeant to send around
a man.
Il haven't got time to bother with il.
My men are all too busy with registration
duty Rosenberg says the sergeant told
him.
why, there are three or four men hanging
around now with nothing to do. Why
don't y on send q Of them?" Rosenberg
says he answered.

Imnrovements i'm Dairying.

1t is probable that dairymen will
make many improvements in the future,
for already there is growing ten
dency to begin reforms in the dairies,
and there is no department on the farm
which demands more consideration
than the present methods of handling
both the COWS and their milk. 1t is
claimed that there is more filth and less
care in dairying than is creditable, but
there are exceptions, as III other occu-
pations. The majority of consumers
are usually in ignorance of any Of .e
conditions affecting the preparation of
milk. Reforms are also possible in the
treatment of the milk from fresh cows
as well as care of the young calves,
it being customary TO remove the calves
from the COWS when the young things
are but one or two days old. the milk
from their dams being added to that

two or three weeks old, but. as the av-
eyage dairyman milks his cows for the
purpose of selling the product, he will
not willingly sacrifice to the calf an
article that he can put on the market.
The result is that the milk sold In the
cities is Of varied quality. much of it
being unclean and unfit for use There
is room for improvement, and there are
hundreds OF consumers ready and Will

care If he viii provide them with milk

TO build up such a trade. but a reputa-

The pure Food Ln,v.

The Republicans claim the credit for
the Pure Food law, but the RepubIi-
can Congress made no appropriation
for carrying the law into effect The
majority of the Republican members
of Congress have little sympathy with
the law and tried before they passed
1t to weaken it at every point When
1t comes to voting the appropriation of
S1,OOO,O00 which Secretary Wilson says
is necessary to carry out the provisions
of the law, we shall see how much in
fuence has been exerted by such oppo-
nents as the patent medicine people
and other interests that are lnterfered
with. The law goes into effect on Jan.
l, but until provision is made for it's
enforcement, it will be virtually dead
letter.

When her friend had laughingly
yielded to her entreaties, she crept out
into the hall. and with her eyes ON the
tall clock listened for her brothers
footsteps.
Ten, twenty, thirty minutes passed,
and then she tiptoed TO the sitting

girlish figure on the couch. The eyes
were closed, and she seemed to be

Eleanor sat nervously on the very

White Clover.

One of the most useful plants for
lawns or pastures is white clover. 1t
does not compete with red clover for
hay, but the white variety serves many
excellent purposes on farms, which
should commend 1t to all stock men.
White clover in Indigenous on almost
all moist, clayey soils In this climate
it forms part of the sward, and even
if not perceived at first sight, 1t is dis
covered on closer inspection. 1t soon
shows itself after the soil has been
MANFRED with substances congenial to
its nature, such as lime or ashes. Some
cultivators also SOW white clover with
the intention Of moving 1t, but 1t re-
auires a very rich soil to cause 1t to
grow to any considerable height. On a
soil of this description it will sometimes
yield a crop nearly equal In thickness
to that of the common red clover, and,
according to some persons, preferable
to the latter as a fodder plant, being
of better flavor, yielding more nour-
ishment and is claimed to be more
conducive to the production of milk.
But it yields only one crop, and is GER
tainly the most generally approved Of
all plants that are cultivated for that
purpose. 1t is peculiarly fitted for a
pasture plant by the disposition which
it has to send forth shoots, and the
uuickness with which its leaves are re-
PRODUCED quality in which 1t sur
passes the red clover. Again, white
clover Is not so easily choked by
weeds, but exterminates them by means
of its roots, which thrust their way
through the soil; hence it does not re-
auire a soil so well cleared, and may
with greater facility be sown after re-
peated grain crops.

Republican party along whatever path
they may lead or drive the majority of
Republican delegations in Washington.
His guarded Ifs" with respect to
tariff revision by the newly elected
Congress have stirred up lot of talk
AID surmise among the advance guard
of arrivals in the national capital
about the possibility and the expedi-
ency of an extra session of the new
Congress shortly after the 4th Of
March for the sole purpose of doing
something to Dingley.
Bearing in mind the precedent cited
by Secretary Shaw that mo party
which revises the tariff downward has
ever carried the next election" Mr..
Cullom does not say that the tariff
ought to be revised before the Presi-
Dental election.
He only maintains that "if 'twere
done, 'twere well 'tvere done quickly"
and he Is mighty nearly right. If the
dear people will not accept Secretary
Shaw's promise of revision 'immedi-
ately after the next Presidential cleo
ton" the best chance of the Repubii-
can leaders is to tackle the danger
GUS job in a special session beginning
in March and have done with it.
1t is no part of the duty of a Demo
cratic newspaper to steer the Republi-
can party to the safest and best road.
But the Republic honestly advises the
Republicans that they had better begin
doing something to Dingley before
April FOOLS Day dawns.
Their party has existed for sSme
years only by stealing from the Demo
cratic code. 1t is increasingly appar-
ent that its existence cannot be much
further prolonged without stealing
some more.-St. Louis Republic.

restoring an Orchard.

In an endeavor to furnish an object
lesson, Ernest Walker of the Arkansas
experiment station took charge of
neglected apple orchard and soon
brought it around all right. He made
I'd his mind that the trees needed the
knife and started in on his surgical OPP
erations. The early fall pruning was
only moderate, as heavy pruning would
have tended to cause a swelling or the
buds, or even a late growth. The re-
moyal Of large branches was avoided
wherever possible; yet if limb was
weak or circumstances made 1t deslra-
BILE to remove it, it was promptly tax
en- out When the top branches were
weak or the head thin, or the tree grow
ing lop-sided, topping was done. Care
was observed always to make the cut
in this case just above good side
branch-a very important matter, as
this avoids the danger of the dying
back, frequently deemed an inevitable
Consequence of topping in trees. where
much twigineSs was noted considerable
thinning out was done. On the south
and southwest side of the trees, how
ever, less pruning was done, as shade
in that, as in this, country is desirable,
and so much thinning is not necessary.
The spraying was looked after assidu-
ously and the invalided orchard was
soon doing business again.
