A NATION OF GOOD TEMPLARs.

Can it be possible that the prohibition party is going
to become real factor in national politics.
1t looks like it.
In the prohbitionists poled only 2oso00 votes
In 1904 of 10000 votes, only $50 for
prohibition.
Not much, surely.
But in the face of this, look at the prohibition map
1t will surprise you.
There only eight whisky states in the union.
Two states absolutely prohibition. All the others
have local option laws and than half of their terri
tory is dry
In 1870 there were but 100000 people living in dry
territory today there than 100000.
In 1870 per cent of the people Of the United States
affected by prohibition laws; today than 40
per cent directly affected having chosen these laws
for Themselves
AT the November elections the larger portion of Della
ware voted to prohibit the sale of liquor
In Illinois, 13 out of 37 districts voted against licens-
ing saloons, meaning that $4,000 square miles Of Illinois

FEED RATS on

PORTLAND, Nov. 14.-What
would you think of an individual

they still do not object to it. After
eating the mixture, they invariably

WHY Milk Costs Moro.

Interesting statistics as to the cost
of milk production are given by the
local milk dealers of a Massachusetts
town in al announcement made of an
increase in the retail price of milk to
seven cents a quart during the winter
months. On this announcement we
find the following suggestive compari-
sons:
Twenty years ago mill feed cost $14
per ton; today So per ton. Then cot
ton seed cost SIS per ton; today $34
per ton. Then, farm labor cost 500 per
month"; today, SIC per month. Then
milch COWS cost $40 each; today, 500
each. Formerly milk dealers outfit
consisted of about % tin cans, costing
about So. Today, for the same bust
ness, it requires bottles, boxes, filters,
coolers, etc, costing $50 Our plumb
ing, carpenters repairs, blacksmithing
and other like expenses have Increased
80 per cent. Added to the above are
the constantly increasing restrictions
of state and local boards of health
which undoubtedly improve the quality
of the milk, but at considerable in
crease in cost, which increase has fallen
on the producer and dealer, when it
should be paid by the consumer"

Feasibility Has Been Shown

THAT the plain is practicable has al
ready been demonstrated eXperimentaly
by the Paint Manufacturers association
of the United States. At the beginning
of the current year it was learned that
shade to be known as copper brown
would be popular in women's goods
With this color a dark green shade natu-
rally suggested itself as a harmonizing
color, 50 copper verde was selected as Il
second special color for the experiment
An approved formula for these two
shades was then worked out and given
TO every member of the association and
ut the proper time attention was called
to them in all quarters. As a result
the total sales of all manufacturers of
these colors for the year will approx
mate, if they do not exceed, 100000 gal
Ions, not counting the limitations of the
two colors supplied by painters and
others. This is an experiment which
shows that fashion in paints is not
only feasible but something which will
be greatly appreciated by the home
owners of the country"

HORSES EAT BEANS.
Fattening and Strengthening Food Spain
Provides for It's Equines

Consul General Benjamin II. Ridgely
of Barcelona reports that on the occa-
sion Of Il recent important agricultural
and BOTANICAL convention i'll that Spanish
city ScnOr BartOlOme BOnet, Il cuItiyator
and agricultural student, referred to the
aIgarroba tree as the tree of the flu
ture" Mr.. Ridgeiy continues:
He based his statement upon the val
ne Of its fruit-locust beans-as a fat
tening and strengthening food for horses
Upon INVESTIGATING the matter | found
that the algarroba or carob tree grows
all along the Spanish coast of the AIedi-
terranean and in the Island of Marjorca
and Ibiza. The beans are used as fod-
der for horses. The best quality is OBJ
tanned in the neighborhoOd of Vinarroz
and large quantities are grown in the
Tortosa district. The tree grows best
in dry, rocky soil. About the eighth or
ninth year it begins to bear fruit and
will produce about 30 kilos Q10 pounds
the first year. A good tree in full beauty
will, on an average, produce $50 to $50
pounds annually. and the beans are sold
at 20 to ?. realeS 60 to 50 cents per
quintal (S912 pounds.
The life of the carob tree is about
80 years. The only thing it has to fear
is the frost which almost invariably kills
it. The wood is valueleSs as lumber and
is sold for fuel. The beans. when used
for food for horses, are strengthening
fattening and healthful. In feeding the
beans are broken into halves or quarters
and mixed with bran"

DafrN Notes,

Large yields per animal means less
cost in making them.
Unless a big COW Is an extra mixer
she is less profitable than a smaller
one that is fair mixer.
The butter product of all cows is
more or less Influenced by the care and
feeding of the animal.
An advantage of da1rying In connec-
ton with grain raising is that it makes
a home market for home grown crops.
In churning if the friction is too
violent, the butter is produced too
speedily, it is deficient in color and
does not keep well.
Success in home dalrying depends
upon four things: The COW, her care
and feeding, the manufacture of the
produce, the marketing of the same.
With the dairy cows it is not neces-
sary at any time that the water be
very cold, but it is Of the very first
Importance that it be pure and whole
some.
If the temperature IS too low the
time and friction consumed in churn-
ing are so great that the butter be-
comes soft. deficient in color and does
not keep well.
The speed of the churn depends upon
the size of the churn and the amount
of cream. but it should be turned so
as to give the greatest conclusion to
the cream.
When the churn is quite filed it IS
almost impossible to produce butter,
not only because there is want of air,
but also because the cream swells in
the process of churning.
The value of cream is based on the
dry solids it contains and cream from
different cows and from the same cows
at different periods of the year has a
surprising difference in Dutter value.
Dairying has this advantage. that It's
produce is in the line of food and is
always in demand at some price and is
therefore money crop to the farmer;
TO this may be added the fact that the
money comes quite frequently.

THE RISE OF EMPORIl KAN.
How 1t Got to Be County Seat in the
Early Days.

Early Days.
The early settlers of Kansas remember
MANY exciting times accustomed by ,oun-
~ seat fights. Many of these fights re
suited in the killing of some of the par
Elephants. But when Emporia wanted
TO get the county seat away from Amer
icus it set its brains to work and took it
without raising Il disturbance. Americas
was unaware OF the trick that was be
ing played.
When Emporia conceived the idea of
becoming the capital of the county the
south line of Breckenridge county. now
Lyon county, was short distance south
of the town. Its citizens circulated pc
tition asking the Legislature to cut n
strip off from the north end of the county
and to add Il like strip to the south end,
thus making Emporia close to the center
of the county. Americas heard of the
proposed change and got out remon-
STRANGE, which received as many or more
signatures than t petition.
At that time the state capital was Lee
compton and the only way to get there
was on horseback. Each town prepared
to present It's side OF the case to the Leg
islature and the Emporia man started
with his petition for LeCompton. On his
way, however, he was stricken with fe-
Yer and ague and was detained on aC-
count of the illness. The Americas man
with the remOnStrance overlook him.
Just what kind of deal was made is not
known to the public. but the remon-
STRANGE never got To the Legislature. and
when the petition was presented the num-
Der of Signers had greatly increased since
it had left Emroria. The AmericuS man
suddenly came into possession of $4O0
and the title to several town lots. it is
said.
Owing to the poor facilities of com
municatiOn i'll those DAYS the people of
Americas did not find out how they had
been duped until it was too late. -,obody
opposed the change i'll the Legislature,
the petition was granted and Emporia
got the county seat without much trou-
ble.-KanSaS City Times.
