Creamerymen through all the dairy
sections of the country run a good
chance of getting into hot water or
something worse if they work more
than 16 per cent of water into their
butter product. An Iowa firm has
lately got into the tolls Of the federal
government for putting ninety tubs on
The Chicago market that showed 80
per cent of water on inspection by a
revenue official The company in ques-
ton has had fine Of 5000 assessed
against it, 5000 being the license
which manufacturers of adulterated
butter have to pay to the government
every six months, the remaining $500
being the penalty which is assessed In
addition. The offending company has
ten days from the issuance of the war
rant within which to pay the fine, in
default of which any leviable property
of the company will be seized and held
by United States marshal or deputy
until the matter is settled. The gov
eminent looks upon the working Of
more than Is per cent of water into
butter as straight case of adultera-
ton and Furnishes the offense accord
ingly.

A book that is of surprising interest
to the horticulturist and a real work
of art aside from the generous fund Of
scientific information which it contains
has recently been issued under the di-
rection of Professor S. A. Beach, for
merly of the New York state horticul-
tural department and now in charge
of the same line of work in Iowa 1t
is entitled ''The Apples of New York;
and contains besides accurate botanical
descriptions of the different varieties
treated colored plates of many of them,
together with recommendations as to
the adaptability of the varieties de-
scribed to different sections of the
country. 1t is a rare work and O;
great practical value

AS showing what proper care will
do in the matter of promoting the
longevity of an orchard as well as
along the line Of increasing the profit
to be derived from it a bulletin issued
lately by the department of agriculture
calls attention to a Baldwin orchard
located in Orleans county, N. Y, which
covers twenty-five acres and is today
over fifty years old. The care given it
has been so good that it is still ia a
remarkable state Of preservation The
crop Of this orchard has in many cases
been sold on the trees at from $4,000
to $1,000.

The New Jersey state board of health.
publishes the following as a sure cure
for pneumonia, provided it is applied
before the disease has reached its most
acute stage: Take six to ten onions,
according to size, chop fine and pat in
large spider over a hot fire, then add
the same quantity of rye meal and
enough vinegar to form a thick paste.
In the meantime stir it Thoroughly. let
ting it simmer five or ten minutes.
Then put in cotton bag large enough
to cover the lungs and apply to the
chest as hot as the patient can bear.
Ii about ten minutes apply another,
and thus continue by reheathlg tile
poaltices, and in a few hours the pa
tient will be out of danger. This sim
pie remedy has never failed to cure
this too often fatal malady. Usually
4 three or four applications will be
found sufficient, but continue always
until the perspiration starts from the
chest

There is little question that many a
farm has become contaminated with
the Canada thistle, quack grass and
other noxious weeds through the i'm
portation Of the hay and litter which
are often wrapped around fruit trees or
used in the packing Of dishes. Unless
one knows positively as to the pedigree
of such packing it is far better to burn
it on the spot than to put it on the
manure pile, where such stuff is usual
~ dumped. Where the latter Is done
it is placed directly on the plow land of
the farm and at once gains a foothold.
Care as to this matter in season will
often save much yexation and expense.

the negro his proper place in our sys-

A. c. Jordan Declares He Will

Lyons, Kan. Oct 1s.-William A.
Harris spoke here Thursday afternoon
to large audience. The meeting was
held in a grove at the edge of the
city
Senator Harris in his speech referred
to the cry that the voters should stand
by President Roosevelt.
In this connection said he, Il have
only to read a portion Of the presidents
speech at Harrisburg a few days ago,
to show you which platform in this
campaign is drawn along the presidents
ideas. I have here a newspaper in
which the presidents speech on that
occasion is printed in full. Listen while
I read" "
Senator Harris then read as follows:
Through your legislature you have
abolished passes; you have passed
law compelling the officers Of great
cities to attend to the duties for which
they are paid by all the taxpayers and
TO refrain from usuing the power con-
ferred by their Offices to influence poiiti-
cal campaigns; you have by law pro-
tected the state treasury from depreda-
ton and conserved the public moneys
Tor use only IN the public interest; you
have provided a primary election law
which guarantees to the voters free
expression in the selection of the can
didates for Office, and finally you have
passed law containing provision
which I most earnestly hope will in
substance be embodied likewise, in q
law by the congress at the coming ses-
sfon-a provision prohibiting the officers
of any corporation from making a con-
tribution Of money Of that corporation
to any candidate or any political COM
mittee for the payment of any election
expenses whatever"
Who" said Senator Harris, els try
ing to abolish passes2 our friends on
the other side or ourselves? Are the
Republicans supporting the president
there? Who is trying to protect the
state treasury from depreciation? Who
is supporting the president in that
idea2 Do they say anything that would
lead you to believe that they win pro-
tect your money in the future or that
they regret the $4,000 treasury
shortage? Does the Democratic plat
form declare for a primary election
law as approved by the PRESIDENT
The president says: a provision pro-
hibiting the officers of any corpora
ton from making a contribution OF
money of that corporation to any can
didate or any political committee for
the payment Of any election expense

Jordan of Rice county, heretofore
considered the leading Republican in
this section of the state. Two years
ago when the boss buster" move
ment was started it was to Jordan that
was intrusted the petition for E. W.
Hoch to become a candidate against
Bailey. Jordan was chosen because of
his prominence in the party councils.
He had been rgeant-at-arms of the
house when Hoch was speaker pro
tenn. He had been assistant sergeant
alarms of the last three Republican
national conventions and the man who
was generally looked to for party work
in this county. The correspondent had
heard that Mr.. Jordan was "off the
reservation and after Senator Harris
had finished speaking he asked him if
it were true that he had declared for
Harris
yes. that is trua.2 replied Mr.. Jor-
dan. I'm going TO vote for Senator
Harris this year~strtI lit viii be the
first Democratic vose in my 50 years

has never been governor except in
name only. He has not treated the
state of Kansas on the square. 1t

wide a gap between the white man and
the negro
1.-THE negroes in the south, notWith-
standing the millions of dollars we have
spent IN attempting to educate them,
are becoming more irresponsible, more
disrespectful of law and more animal

"How will the abrOgation of the Fiji
teenth amendment change condi-
tions2" was asked.
''It viii simply place the negro
where he naturally belongs. The
low, criminal instinct which is
daily becoming more rampant, is an
OutcrOppiDg of the desire to attain So
cial equality, fostered by the present
legal equality which the amendment
eompels.
IF I get to the senate there will be
an opportunity to speak to the entire
nation. The north will know what the
south already knows, that the climax
Of the situation is at hand. It will
come to appreciate that Thomas JEFF
ferson was not speaking of the negro
when he said that all men were created
free and equal He knew then that
the negro was a mere chattel."
