The large quantities of canned corn
in stock at many of the Iowa canneries
on March / would seem to indicate
that the business has been consid iderably
overworked. With scores Of factories
putting up all the way from 100000 to
100000 cans last season it is readily
seen that the consumption would have
to be on a very large scale to at all keep
pace with the supply.

A commendable and necessary econ
omy practiced early in life quite often
develops through strengthening and
crystallizing of the habit into an en-
tirely unnecessary and most disagree
able parsimony. And one Of the most
hopeless features Of such a situation Is
that the one ON whom such a habit has
grown is the one who is usually most
obIivious Of its presence.

The French astronomer, Camille
Flammarion, has recently made exten-
sive experiments with view to ascer-
taining the influence of lunar radiation
upon plants from seeds sown in diff
ferent phases of the moon. His find
ings were entirely inconclusiye and go
a long way toward dissipating super
stition that has obtained very strong
hold on the minds of a good many peo-
pie.

Many a professional and business
man cooped up for long hours in Office
or store will find most enjoyable re-
taxation and relief for his tired brain
and overwrought nerves In the care Of
little garden patch Of flowers and
vegetables. This will not only provide
needed bodily recreation, but will tend
to minister to his spiritual needs, which
find scant consideration In the monoto-
nous grind Of his business life; will put
him In close touch with nature and re-
open avenues to a new and interesting
realm Of life.

The little turkey is more sensitive
and tender and requires greater care
than the chick up to six weeks Of age,
but after this time the condition seems
to be reversed. During this early pc
riod the little turkeys should be pro-
vided with clean, dry quarters and
plenty Of cooked food, which may be
of varied kinds. A close watch should
be kept for lice and mites, which are
among their worst enemies during the
six weeks period.

In view of the very general protest
which has been raised by farmers CO.
operative grain companies against the
general principle of rebates and dis
ordinations, it seems a little strange
to note the complaint Of some Of the
stockholders in a western company of
this character because they were not
allowed a better price for selling 5000
bushels of grain than their fellow mem
bers, who furnished but 500 bushels.

While the clipping Of horses may be
done so early in the season as to amount
to practical cruelty, yet when done at
a somewhat later time it has its dis
tinct advantages. A large teaming
corporation in Chicago made test
with 500 horses, of which number one
half were clipped and the other half
left to shed their winter coats in the
natural way. OF those that were clip
ped not one lost a feed or day out of
the harness, while of the number that
were not so treated 153 were afflicted
with spring coughs and pneumonia.
The experiment was conducted on SO
large scale as to furnish conclusive
evidence Of the value of clipping.

A recent bulletin issued by the state
agricultural commissioner of New York
states that 10000 farms are for sale
in the state, while facilities exist for

We're on the eighth floor of the Brown

When ready to go the woman said:

AS she moved toward the elevator she

Yet indeed he replied.
''Well,'' she said, I'm never going

RIGHT TO OPINION.

I'VE have a right to express an opin-
ion with reference to judicial appoint
ments here. I think the Bar Associa-
ton should have a voice in having
judicial appointments divorced from
politics and preventing one man from
selecting judicial officers. The power
of advising on such appointments, must
of course be lodged somewhere, and
the Governor by virtue of his high Of
flee is entitled to some consideration,
but I think the action he has taken in
this matter about sending on another
mans name to Washington before the
Bar Association met. has compelled
this Association to act as it has.
Judge Robinson has proven himself
judicial officer of fairness. 1t is
pretty hard for any judge to secure the
unanimous support of an organization
of this kind, but he got it. When
man. after four years of service, can
get the unanimous support of such an
organization as this, he must be fit
and proper man to be appointed.
