For CaIIoused Shoulders.

A farmer in North Dakota gives his
method of treatment and cure of cal
loused shoulders Of work horses In the
Dakota Farmer, which he says he has
used with uniform success, as follows /:
, II cut q slit In the front part Of the
collar opposite the c~allous, then cut
another slit ut right angles across the
first one. I then take out enough Of
the filling to allow for callous. After
soaking face Of collar In warm water
I lay the front part, where cuts have
been made, ON a plank or something
solid, and pound face of collar where
It presses On callous, with round-faced
hammer, tin a sufficient hollow has
been made. This plan will work
whether collar has been used with or
without pad Then when the horse
comes In from work I bathe the calous
In water as hot az can be borne and
paint with iodine. You will find this
plan worth trying. and I will guarantee
the collar vii not be injured"

Preventing Cedar Rust.

The disease called cedar rust, which
spreads TO apple trees from cedar ap-
pies, commonly carried on cedar trees,
and pasture savins, has been lnvesti-
gated at the Nebraska station with the
conclusion that spraying with bordeaux
mixture will keep the disease In check,
making the application when the cedar
apples On cedar trees show the orange
color, followed with another spraying
ten days or two weeks later. 1t Is also
recommended to destroy cedar trees or
at least to get out the cedar apples for
a considerable distance around the or
chards Where spraying is carried on
for apple scab, ETC., the same spraying
would answer for the rust.

FISHING AT GREEN LAKE.

The argument of the Bangor cottage
owners that the fishing at Green lake was
being ruined by the practice OF the
government fish hatchery there of strip
ping fish for spawn, receives black eye
in the way the spring fishing opens up.
A conservative estimate OF the number
of fish taken at Green Lake during the
first two weeks OF open water, places 1t at
200 fish. One OF the gratifying features of
this is the fact that many of the fish taken
are young fish, showing that the constant
planting OF fish in these waters is having
its effect.
No man has yet successfully solved the
riddle why fish will bite at one time
and not at another when all weather and
water conditions are apparently the same.
There are good seasons and bad seasons
on every lake.
Last season was a good one at Green
Lake, but the first two weeks OF the
present season have gone way ahead of
that, and the number OF fish rang .ng from
three to five pounds which have been
caught suggests that the balance of natural
food supply and the fish has at last been
shifted by persistent planting, and the
fish are now ready to take the bait.

everyone has to cook on the street. The sup

question of who shall preside over the
destinies of this good State OF ours
for the period allotted by law has
been submitted to the people, and
with only a break now and then the
answer has come back from the
people that the grand old republican
party is good enough for them.
Whatever the ills that the repub-
licans of Maine, during their long
continuance in power, may have
brought about-and we are far from
admitting that they have brought
about any--it appears that the
people, for whom the democrats
affect so strong love, prefers to bear
them than fly to others that they
know not of.
"Back to the peoplei" Yes, 1t is
after all slogan that well applies to
the party that has adopted it. Even
in it's sanest moments, that is jus. the
attitude it has ever maintained-its
back to the people; ever looking
behind, never forward; ever looking
down, never up; ever opposing,
never proposing; ever destructive,
never constructive; ever fighting the
instructive progressiveness of those
for whom it processes SO ardent an at
lection; wrong on every great ma
tional question of the last half CEN
fury, whether political, industrial,
nancial or commercial.
"Back to the people," forsooth! A
last despairing cry of a political
party, which, like the long cared
quadruped of the cartoonist, has no
pride of ancestry and no hope of
posterity,
Nobody is going to be hoodood by a
catch penny phrase as meaningless as
il is empty. Or if it means anything
is merely the frantic appeal of des-
perate minority to turn republicans
out and to turn democrats in.
It's front to people" that the domi-
nant party of this State has always
presented, and that is why the people
have retained it so long in power, and
where it is likely to remain.

Speaking of the psychological mo-
ment, the report OF the bureau of
corporations on the Standard Oil Co.
and the message of the President
transmitting it to Congress, came at
such a moment, If anything ever
did. Just at the moment when
the two sides are lining up for vote
on the rate bill, and when that
measure is fighting for its integrity, If
not for its very life, the report on
Standard Oil 10 veritable bomb in
the hands of the administration.
The report has been the sensation of
the week in Washington, and Commits
sioner Garfield has made the reputa-
ton of lifetime in rendering it. 1t
is stated that the railroad discrimina-
tons discovered by the bureau of
corporations Melted the Standard
a profit of $4,000 year on its
freight business.
This was bad enough, but it
was only a drop in the bucket
compared to the enormous ad-
vantage that this discrimination en-
abled the Standard to exercise in
squeezing the last cent out of the
consumer all over the country. Be-
side the cold, official statement OF the
report, the most insistent ciamor OF
the papers and of the magazines
seems tame. For this is official,
while the other is an unofficial ar
raignment.
Accompanying the report is the
message of the President saying that
the report alone would prove that
an absolute necessity.

Nature has just one pigment on her palette

blood. The shell-like pink beneath the finger

brilliance of the eyes are all produced by the
blood. just as the permanence of beautiful

ton that the declaration will be re-

county tax has been doubled in the

it has more than doubled, and what
of it? In the same time the valuation
OF the county has more than doubled
sos, 400 in 1885; over $1,000, 900
in 1905. The rate OF taxation, which
is the real test of the tax burden, is
actually less now than it was then; it
was .01 in 1905 against Obj in 1885.
This fact, which is the vital one, our
disingenuous contemporary carefully
