II costs about $50 to raise a mule

ranging from $3.50 to $3.50 singly. and
for good matched pairs sales have tax

The mule has been until lately essen

and farmers OF the middle and west

to his value by the demand and guam

agents Of tho British government. who
came over from the old sod, their pock-
cts bulging with bank notes, and pur-
chased everything in sight under the
name of mule.

Two Dairyina Decisions.

were brought UP TO a high standard of
production it would bring down the
price OF The products. said w. ID. Hoard.
of Wisconsin,. at the late Illinois State
Farmers institute. Keeping poor un-
fit cows for the purpose of holding UP
prices of butter and milk IS hard on
the constitution. The surplus of dairy
products comes from COWS that bring
no profit to their owners. Eliminate
the poor cows and there will be no sur
plus.
TOO many farmers keep their eyes
on the market They cannot affect
the price one dot or little. They can If
they will reduce the cost OF produce

BRYAN IN 1908.

While MIR. Bryan is f1eeting free from
flower to flower in foreign lands, un-
touched and untroufbled by the i'm
broglios Of democratic leaders in the
senate, things are quietly coming his
way. Long ago in Indiana voices were
raised in favor Of third nomination
for the ''peerless leader" Not long ago
a democratic convention in Ohio de-
clared in advance for Mr.. Bryan in
1908, and twenty-three counties in
Missouri have voiced their demand for
Bryan as a national leader. Mr.. Bry-
ans straws are wiggling in the winds
of democratic desire. 1t looks as tho
Bryan may. if he chooses, go to the
next democratic national convention
stronger than he went to the last.
Granting that Mr.. Bryan's ambition
remains unsatisfied, wisdom has
marked his course. His apparent I'M
concern aus to his own political fences,
shown by his trip abroad, his escape
from the necessity Of bearing part
in democratic squabbles, puts Bryan
on pedestal. He is a wandering Mo-
ses waiting, to be recalled. Somewhere
the democratic party must rally, some
leadership it must converge upon. If
the democratic party is to exist as a
political force, there must be reunion

crat can rally his party. No southern
democrat will be- acceptable to the
west and north. Who then are to be
considered more than Mr.. Bryan, and
secondarily to Bryan, Governor Folk?
Mr.. Bryan's weakness east of the
Appalac hians has grown into popular
strength. He is still persona non
grata to eastern democratic politicians,
but the eastern democratic politician
the masses of the democracy Bryan is
popular Democrats will vote for him.
He is the nearest to Roosevelt that
the democratic party can produce.
Senator's Aldrich, Foraker, Elkins, ct
al, have given the disorganized and
overwhelmed democratic party it's OPP
portunity. Republican venality and
republican plumbers are the elixir of
( life to the opposition. 1t is a critical
period for the republican party. 1t will
not have Roosevelt to lead it in 1908.

Remedy for Notified Butter.

IT, after standing few hours, the
butter is found TO show a notified tp-
rearance. this can be overcome by put
ting 1t on the worker and giving 1t an
additional working. The notified APP
pearance indicates that some step in
the working of the butter has not been
Thoroughly done. II is due to an un-
even distribution of salt. and possibly
to the presence of casein that has not
been washed from the butter, the ac-
ton Of the casein forming lighter spots
in the butter The best remedy for

PERKINS rAvoRs COURT REVIEW.

A very learned man at Grinnell, VINO
has not hitherto been classed as
Cummins man, but who has been stir
red very much this year by President
Roosevelt's rate regulation campaign,
writes to know if it were true that
George d. Perkins editorially favored
the court review features of rate bill
80 dearly desired by the railway IN
terests. For the information of the
Grinnell man and of all others who
may be interested the Times Republi-
can will reply that this was Mr. Perkins
position as to rate regulation at time
when Governors Cummins, La Toilette
and Van SAINT were in washington
urging Roosevelt to make fight for
rate regulation that would regulate
without the interminable delay of
lawsuit, which had for so long made
the work. of the Interstate commerce
commission ineffective. 1t continued TO
be his view as to rate regulation until
he began to prepare to become can
didate. Thereupon brother editors in
iowa. who had been familiar with the
arguments Of the Sioux City Journal,
suddenly discovered, one morning,
complete flop"
That there may be no controversy
on this point, the following from a
Perkins editorial of October 20, 1895,
should be read:
what is the objection to leaving the
Sate established by the carrier in OPP
GRAFTON until the complaint against 1t
has been judicially sustained? Under
any fair analysis the complaint is
against the, courts-either against the
courts directly or against the machin-
cry provided by the government for
prosecution and speedy adjudication.
II the fault is here it should appear to
be worth the while Of congress to ex-
pertinent in search of corrective. The
probability is that the senate at least
will not consent to grant the interstate
commission, or any administrative
body, power to exercise the judicial
junction pending the exercise of the
real power in the courts"
President Roosevelt in his message
to congress year and a half ago rec
commended an amendment to the inter-
state commerce law giving that body,
or some other, authority to determine
and Ak a rate to be charged on freight
where the commission decides that the
railroad rate is unfair, and that such
rate should go into effect immediate
ly and without waiting for the courts
to review and decide. He has made
his great campaign for a law on this
platform. The above Is the kind OF
help he got from Editor Perkins, at a
time when, as Senator DolEver says,
the railroads were spending millions
thru their press bureau and salaried
agents travelling turnout Iowa to teach
the public the necessities of court
review feature to any rate bill. The
record of the two men before they be-
came candidates is an open book
