A Strong Man Needed.
From the Minneapolis Tribune

From the Minneapolis Tribune
It is a common remark that the only
salvation of Cuba is the appearance Of a
strong man like Diaz of Mexico But
what room is there for such man to de-
velop under the American protectorate?
Diaz established orderly rule only by be-
nevolent usurpatiOn- He had himself re-
elected six times, just as Palma had him
self elected once. Could he have done it
If the defeated party could call in the
American government to annul the cleo
tion and order a new one on proof of un-
due interference by his officials? No na-
uon can develop a strong government in
leading strings If we will not let the
Cu6ans learn to govern themselves like
Mexico, we must govern them like Porto
Rico.

ing against the presentation of the
'CIansman'' in this city and asking the
Commissioners 20 prevent or at least
defer the production of the play in
Washington. Mr.. Thirkield is of the
opinion that coming at a time when the
people are more or less excited over the
Atlanta race riots there is a possibility
of its being attended with more or less
serious consequences that would not re-
fleet credit upon our city"
In reply, Commissioner Macfarland in
formed Mr.. Thirkield that the Com
missioners have no power to prevent or
defer the production Of the play. The
Commissioner concluded by saying: L
do not believe, however, that the people
of washington will be stirred TO riot by It
or any other play. They are not that
kind of people.

Let the Calf Have Hay.

When the young calf or the young
lamb Is large enough to move around
freely 1t ought to have some fine hay
of good quality before 1t all the time SO
that it can begin to eat as soon as ma
ture intends 1t should. Bear In mind
that until its stomach Is In condition to
properly take care of the hay its In
stinct will keep the animal from eating
much of 1t. The idea that any injury
will result is wrong. II the young calf
must be kept in the barn try and 10
cate its stall where 1t will have plenty
of light, especially sunlight, and all the
fresh air 1t needs. Keep the stall clear
with the nice hay always at hand fol
1t to nibble and 1t will thrive. o.
course this stall must be located for {
time, at least. where the cow can sex
her baby at all times; then one will
have a good cow and good calf.

If one will stop to think how haro
1t is to go through the work OF the
morning in a dry, dusty field on hot
day without drink, one will then have
an. idea of how horses feel under the
same conditions. An excellent plan OF
feeding and watering the horse during
the warm weather is to give them wa
ter in the morning, then the hay and
then the grain; at noon the water,
little hay and then the grain and at
night the water, the grain and some
time afterward, usually two hours or
more, all the hay the animal will eat
up clean. 1t will be noticed that the
water always precedes the meal OF
hay and grain. During the forenoon
and during the afternoon the horses
should have at least one cooling drink
1t will do them no harm and they VII
do all the better work in consequence
then, at night, see that they are prop
erly groomed and that they have
good, comfortable bed for their tiret
bodies. Treated in this manner, on
will get full days work from ever,
horse and he will not suffer from II
either.

Planning Work Ahead.

Suppose just before the work Of the
spring opens, each field is planned out,
the manure to be applied figured on,
the quantity of seed required and Its
cost, together with the time the field
should be prepared for planting and
about the time required for the work.
Then take each item Of the work to be
done each week and plan 1t out careful
ly the day before. So many hours for
this task, SO many for that, and so
many for the other, and so on through
the season. A half hour or even an
hour spent each day in planning ahead,
and then working in accordance with
the plan, will save much time and la
Dor. One of our troubles, as farmers,
comes from our disinclination to sys'
tematize affairs, and we dart thither
and hither and lose much valuable time
daily.

The dignified gentleman with the
buckskin gloves saw pin lying on the
pavement. He stopped to pick it up
without removing his gloves.
The first grab assayed about three
grains of dust, but the dignified gentle
man persisted. A bootblack, news
boy, and two loiterers stopped to see
the performance and with this nucleus
the crowd gathered rapidly and began

Wounds on Fruit Trees.

An eastern fruit grower says:
wounds of any considerable size
should be given a coat of paint or some
other durable substance. A suitable
dressing must possess two distinct
properties. 1t must check the wealth
ering Of the wound and prevent the
growth Of bacteria AMI fungi, and 1t
must be of such a nature as not to in
lure the surrounding bark. The dress
ing Ia of no value in the healing of the
wound, except as 1t prevents decay.
For general purposes. a white lead
paint is most satisfactory. 1t adheres
closely to the wood. Wax, shellac, tai
low, etc, are lacking in both respects

girls-she wanted them to be pleased,
she said, wistfully.
Then suddenly, two days before the
Invitations were to be sent out, Betty
made a discovery. For moment she
stood thunderstruck-then she whirled
up to Gertrude's room.
