The PREDICTIONS on the wheat crop of 1905
range from 7OO,oOO,OOO to 74O,OOO0OO bushels.

100000 bushels. This is the only time that
wheat has passed the 700, 0O0. 900 mark. The

A DISPATCH from Rochester, N. Y. says that
Charles Francis, farmer. near Medina, is
using patent cow-milker, operated by cleo
tricity transmitted from power plant five
miles away. The Ontario Company has COM
peted a power cable from Niagara Falls to
Syracuse, $50 miles, and by its charter must
furnish current along the route. Farmers,
particularly dairymen, are making great plans
for using the current for all kinds of farm
work. That Niagara Falls will be milking
the cows between the falls and Syracuse is no
idle dream. Mr.. Francis is warm advocate
of the electric cow-milker. He says boy of
10 years of age milks his thirty-two cows in
a very short space of time.

THE REPUBLICANS of Iowa held their State
convention at Des Moines on Wednesday and
renominated Hon. Albert B. Cummins for
Governor. The resolutions warmly endorse
the administration Of President Roosevelt and
declare in favor Of protection. Two important
planks Of the platform are the following:
1.-THE Republican party has always stood for
the enlarged participation of the individual
voter in public affairs. To this end we pledge
ourselves and our party in this State to the
enactment Of wise and judicious primary
election law, which will provide for the nomi-
nation by direct vote of all candidates for Office
to be filed at the general election and an ex-
preston of public preference in the selection
Of United States Senators. We are unaltera-
bly, opposed to the domination of corporate in
fiuenees in public affairs. We favor stringent
statutes to purge the politics of our State and
nation from the corrupting influences of cor
porate power, and we pledge ourselves to the
enactment Of such laws as will render it un-
profitable and unpopular for corporations to
engage in politics or in any way contribute to
political campaigns" Governor Cummins
was born in Green county, Pa, in 1850, of
Scotch-Irish parents. He is a lawyer by pro-
fession.
