The law should have provided that

pie who desire purchase it for just

try to force measures in their own in

of the people and the labor trust is
always active to push through bills
drafted in the interest of that trust
but directly contrary to the interests
OF the people as n whole Witness
the anti-injunction bill by which labor
unions seek to tie the hands of our
courts and prevent the issue of any
order to restrain the members of that
trust from attacking men or destroy
ing property. Such a bill is perhaps
the most infamous insult to our courts
and the common people ever laid be-
fore Congress and the Representatives
in Congress must be held to q strict
accountability for their acts relating
thereto. But when bills come before
Congress that are drawn in the inter

The people have allowed the slow
murder of infants and adults by tricky
makers Of food, drink and drugs to go
on about long enough. Duty to one
self, family and nation demands that
every man and woman join in an or
ganized movement to clear our people
from this blight. You may not be able
to 90 personally to Washington to i'm
press your congressman, but you can,
in a most effective way tell him by let
fer how you desire him to represent
you.
Remember the Congressman is in
Congress to represent the people from
his district and if a goodly number of
citizens express their views to him he
secures a very sure guide to duty. Re
member also that the safety Of the peo-
pie is assured by insisting that the
will of the people be carried out, and
not the Vaccinations CT the few for
selfish interests.
This pure food legislation is a pure
movement of the people for public pro
lection. 1t will be opposed only by
those who fatten their pockets by de-
ceiving and injuring the people. There
fore. if your Representative in Con-
gress evades his patriotic duty hold
him TO strict accountability, and il
necessary demand equitable and hon
est service. This is a very different
condition than when a faction de-
mands class legislation of the Con-
gresham. Several years ago the but
ter interests OF the country demanded
legislation TO kill the oleomargarine in
dustry and by power of organization

Growing of Too Many Varieties.

Growing of Too Many Varieties.
Any one who will stop to think will
| remember that they can call to mind
readily a dozen articles of merchan-
disc selling at good prices simply be-
cause the consumer has been made fam
iliar with it by name. Soap, stove
backing, clothing, linens, dress goods
and many other articles. Fruit growers
seem to have an idea that consumers,
| and especially those who live III the
city, have no particular care about any
certain variety this is q serious mis-
take, for once let a consumer get
taste g.. a fruit he likes and the next
time he buys it he will ascertain. If
possible, where 1t was grown, its varl-
| ETY. name and all about it; for, mind
you, the city man is ever ready to add
! to his stock of knowledge. His business
| and city training has taught him that
| knowledge protects him from being
taken in. We once saw a man who was
very fond of apples, buy a barrel Of
King. The size and color of the fruit
attracted him, and after he had eaten
few of them he did not want hny-
thing else Some months later | re-
ceived letter from him, asking if l
remembered his purchase, and wanting
to know the name of the variety so
that ne could get more. Other sorts
had been offered him, but he wanted
King. l believe that if growers would
select limited number of the best
sorts On any fruit and grow those only,
the returns would show that it would
be good policy. Identify in the mind
of the consumer some first-class fruit
and he will always buy that sort, while
now he is more or less confused.

How to GrON neMherries


In the Fruit Grower, ]. NJ Austin
gives his experience in growing dew
berries. He does not believe in the
trellis system, but treats the plants in
a way to make bushes of them, 50 that
they become self-supporting. The first
year ;he ends are clipped off when
| about foot long, being done from time
to time all summer, as needed. This
makes round, bushy plant by the end
of the season. Then when blooms are
dropping and fruit begins to form, the
new g'owth is clipped off at about to
D inches from the ground.
This is done twice while the fruit is
growing and ripening. as it keeps the
growth away from the pickers and
sends more sustenance to the fruit. AS
all shoots that bore the fruit close to
the ground, that the growth which will
bear the coming year may be stronger.
Should the bushes be too thick in
spring, thin out by cutting away some

but it is true that in their wild state

Cultivation is great help to the

penetrating nature they are not apt to
be broken by the harrow when working
the ground, as happens with black

RANCH FOR SHARING GAME.
Where Elk, Buffalo and Deer Were
Caught for Geological Gardens.

Where Elk, Buffalo and Deer Were
Caught for Geological Gardens.
The Dick Rock ranch at Henry's
Lake, in this State, has been sold. The
ranch was located by Wv Smith, of
Anaconda, and his partner, Dick Rock,
in 1885, says the Butte correspondence
of the Seattle Times.
Smith was in at the death of the
race of buffalo on the plains of Mon
tana and Dakota, and at the time be-
came acquainted with Rock, who was
probably the fastest man on the plains
with a skinning knife. Rock thought
nothing of taking off the skins of from
fifty to sixty buffalo in one day, with
no tackle or facilities whatever save
his knife and two swift hands, backed
by brawny arms. With the passing of
the buffalo and after the Indian trou-
bes had been settled the two men
found their occupation gone, and had
to seek new fields.
Smith made a trip east, and in the
parks and ZOOS there saw many of the
animals he was accustomed to see
running wild. He was astonished to
learn of the fabulous sums paid by
the collectors of game for show pur-
poses and game preserves. Then he
conceived the idea of supplying this
market, and with Rock he took up the
ranch at Henrys Lake.

the Norwegian skis. Though a sue

the elk and roping them, but also in
getting them back to the ranch after

Then they hit on a more willy plan
High cOrrals We're built during the
summer. When winter came they
placed wild hay and tempting food in
bars on one side Then Vic and his
partner, on skis, would locate a herd
of elk and drive them ahead like cat
tie, as the animals were unable to
make speed in the snow. The elk were
steered into the traps and bars put up
Then it was only necessary to feed
them until sold. They were shipped
to all parts of the country, but the
best market was found among the rich
men of New York, who stocked their
preserves in the Adirondacks from the
Rocky Mountain ranch. Elk sold for
from $50 to 500; mountain sheep
$3.50; bears. $50; deer, $50 each. and
the purchasers paid the freight and
bore the expense of getting the ami
mails to the railroad
During their five years of partner
ship they captured in all 307 elk, 300
deer. 20 mountain goats, - bears and
few moose. Last of all, they took in
three buffalo calves. Then Vic sold out
and Rock continued the business alone

SMALLEST DOG IN THE WORLD.
She's Toy Black and Tan Terrier
and Weighs Pound and Hall.

and Weighs Pound and Hall.
Probably the smallest adult dog in
the world is Pinkie a toy black and
tan terrier owned by Mrs George H.
Shapley, of Newtonville, says the Bos-
ton Post
AT the present time Pinkie weighs
a pound and half and it is thought
that she has about got her growth. al
though she is scarcely larger than
kitten.
Pinkie is now the pet of the Shap-
ley household, but much as she is
loved for her bright and affectionste
ways she has not yet secured quite
the same place in the heart of her mis-
tress as that won by Toots, Pinkie's
father. Toots recently died at the age
of II, but during his lifetime he was
very distinguished little parsonage. He
was larger than his daughter, weigh
ing three and a half pounds, and had
gathered in blue ribbons enough to
more than balance him in the scales.
TOots was noted as being the only
singing dog in existence His mistress
is a famous vocalist and in some way
she taught Toots to carry a tune" as
we'll as many people. The little fellow
was a society faYorite and nothing
pleased him more than 70 be given
an opportunity to show off his accom-
pnshments. Mrs. Shapley took him
everywhere with her and always made
new friends. He is probably the only
dog ever tolerated within the aristo-
cratic portals of the Waidorf-Astoria,
but Toots was so small and so win
ming that Herr Boldt could not re-
fuse.
Tootsie participated in many chart

successful termination, though subdued
by the remembrance of their losses, was
deep and heartfelt. Rosalthe and the
other maidens Unexpectedly restored to
the arms of their anxious friends. ex-
pressed their thanks TO their deliyerers
with grateful, eloquent looks and fearful,
expressive eyes.
Allan Norwood grew rapidly in the
good opinion of Mr.. Aston, and an in
timacy of the most tender and interest
ing nature soon became apparent be-
tween him and the fair Rosalthe.
Early in the following spring, just as
the flowers were expanding, she con,
sented to make him the happiest of men.
And thus, blest to the summit of their
hopes, we leave them to glide calmly
and blisfully down the ever-rolling
stream of life.
Starlight gave her heart finally to
Otter-Lifter, and kept thereafter his
lodge fire bright. Among Norwood's
visitors none were more truly welcome
than the humane chieftain and his Star
Light.
AS for young Reynolds, is it not writ
ten in the annals Of old Kentucky that
he, was so fortunate as to persuade
Fanny Harrod to become Mrs. Reyn-
olds? And upon the next page is it
not also written that Bland Ballard. the
scout, offered his hand and varying for
tunes to 1nnis Mickey. 1t is very Ger
tain that something of this kind should
have been made a matter of authentic
record, if it was not; and possibly it was
lost, with other important missing
archives of the dark and bloody
ground"
Joel Logston did not long defer his
happiness, but was welded to Eliza Bal
lard. Mckee was never heard of after
the siege, and was probably among the
slain.
Of Daniel Boone we feel that it is not
necessary to add more. His name is so
intimately associated with the history
Of that lourishing State, where he spent
a great part of his remarkable life, that
it needs no eulogy from our pen to add
TO its renown. He was the first and
most distinguished among the Pioneers
of Kentucky.

Parasites Fatal to Horses.

The Kansas State Veterinarian re-
horses in different parts of the State
which was caused by parasites describ-
ed as the Palisade worm (Strongyius
armatus). Each outbreak has caused
loss to the owner of nearly $1,000
worth of horses. From the fact that
the trouble does not always manifest
itself in the same way it frequently
puzzles the local veterinarian for some
time.
This worm may be found in any part
Of the body. It's natural habitat, how
ever, when full-grown is in the intes-
final canal, usually the large bowel
In its immature state is migrates into
the blood vessels, sometimes causing
rupture of a large vessel or an obstruc-
ton of the flow of blood, and in this
way has lodged in the arteries of the
brain, causing the animal TO show brain
trouble. Again it has INSTRUCTED an
artery leading to a portion of the in
testine causing some of the most seri-
of the bowel and frequently death. Be
ing located in different parts of the
body, attacking different organs, &C.
counts for the different symptoms in
different horses.
The life history of this little worm
is very interesting. 1t passes the great
er portion of its life in the intestine
of the horse; a part of it possibly, in
the arteries another portion in the
outer world. Here it may be found in
stagnant water, in meadows. in any
damp place If there is sufficient mois-
ture present and the temperature not
too cold it may live for months In
dry weather or in absence Of sufficient
moisture the parasite soon loses its
vitality and dies. The source OF i1fec-
ton in the horse it may therefore be
saen, Is stagnant drinking water, moist
pastures or green fodder.

Forests and Rainfall.

The exact part played by forests in
conserving rainfall is very difficult of
demonstration, although all unpreju-
diced minds are willing to admit its
efficiency in this particular, and there
are hundreds of well authenticated
cases where countrysides have been
reduced to barren wastes by the de-
struction Of the natural forest covering.
The part which the forests play in
the arability of a region is being
studied by the reclamation service in
conjunction with their recovery Of arid
lands.
After studying the physical charac-
ter Of several streams tributary to the
Hudson. and determining periodically
the relative flow in each, the conclu-
sion has been reached that tempera-
ture and precipitation being equal, the
relative regularity Of stream flow is
determined, first, by the topographic
and geologic conditions, and, second, by
the character and extent of the forest
