BORAx IN THE DAIRY.
A Matter of Profitable Interest to the
Farmer and Dairyman.

A few years ago most anything
"went" for milk or cream or butter so
long as it came originally from cow.
Now things are changed.
The public realizes, the dairyman
realizes and the farmer realizes that
there is just as much difference be-
tween milk from sweet utensils and
milk from stale" utensils as there is
between milk, and chalk and water.
The problem Of keeping sweet all
the utensils used in connection with
milk and cream selling, and butter
making, has been . serious one with
the farmer.
He has come to realize fully that the
slightest taint or hint of staleness left
In a can, tin or churn may ruin whole
output; that the taint which Is left Is
In the form of bacteria which grow
and multiply in milk or butter, produc-
ing disastrous results.
The farmer has learned that hot ws.
ter won't rinse away the groeSy resi-
due in dairy utensils.
He has learned that soap leaves a
residue Of it's own which is, IL any
thing, worse than the milk or cream
residue, and it is little wonder that
there has been a constant clamor for
dairy cleanser and sweetener that
will meet modern requirements.
A few of the largest creamery estab-
lishments have called experts into con-
sultation on this problem and have
with this scientific aid hit upon prod
uct of nature which exactly fills the
bill-BOraX.
Scientists have long known Borax as
a cleanser, sweetener and an anti
septic destroyer of bacteria and germ
growths. Destroys all that is harmful
and promotes and preserves freshness,
sweetness and purity, relieving the
dairyman and dairy housewife of
drudgery and of needless work and
worry
It's cheapness and value should give
1t first place in the necessities of every
dairy.
THE COWS UDDER is kept in q
clean, healthy and smooth condition
by washing it with Borax and water,
a tablespoonful Of BOrax to two quarts
of water.
This prevents roughness and sore
ness or cracked teats, which make
milking time a dread to the cow and
| worry to the mixer.
THE MODERN CLEANSER Of all
dairy utensils consist of-one table
spoonful of Borax to every quart OF
water needed. Remember-a table
spoonful equals four teaspoonfuls.
Be sure that you get pure Borax. To
be sure, you must get "2O MULE
TEAM BORAX." If you are unable to
get the 100 Mule Team" brand send US
your dealers name and we will ar
range to supply you. Send for booklet.

SCANDAL IMPENDING.
Rivalry of Republican Factions for
The Party Mastery.

If the present administra ion has
any high claim on the support of the
Independent vote, It has been on the
ground of reforming political abuses
But we now see the means adopted by
practical politicians to hold power and
place are being openly and brazenly
put in practice by President Roose-
welt and his cabinet officers to gain
control Of the next Republican con-
vention. Civil service rules and regu
lations have been thrown to the winds
and efficient officials are being asked
to resign because they belong to the
opposing faction and If their resigna-
ton is not Immediately forthcoming
they are removed "for the good of the
service" and their places filled with
administration men.
But this obnoxious form of political
activity is now outdone by another
and worse political evil. 1t is conceded
that FIRST Assistant Postmaster Gen.
eral Hitchcock has been touring the
southern states for the purpose Of lin
ing up the federal office holders for
the administration program and prob
ably, if there is any doubt of their
fidelity and activity for that purpose,
they will be dismissed and others
found who are more capable or trust-
worthy in corralling the darky voters
that will elect the delegates to the
Republican national convention. In
the southern states those Republican
voters who are not feeding at the fed
eral trough are notoriously "agiD" the
administration, and as only small
minority can be supplied with govern
ment pap, there is continual squeal-
ing by the ''outs" to get their noses In
the trough in place of their more for
tunate fellows.
There is always fierce competition
10 be elected delegates to the Republi'
can national convention, for expert
ence has shown the negro politicians
that when there is factional fight for
control of the party, both factions are
willing tc contribute for expenses and
votes. Of course, the administration
expects the office holders-white or
colored-to see that the delegates to
the national convention are branded
and delivered without any extra cost
This is no easy job, when plenty of
cash is in sight from the opposing
faction, and darky delegates are
known to have sold out to both sides
in the Sherman-Alger efforts for the
nomination a few years ago.
Those who think the Roosevelt ad
ministration is opposed to such prac-
tical efforts to perpetuate its power
will arrive at a different conclusion if
they watch the course of events for
the selection of delegates to the com
ing Republican national convention.
That a big scandal is impending as
the result of this strife for control of
the Republican party is plainly appar
ent to all close observers of the means
being employed for success.

PROTECTION IN THE BALANCE.
How the Stand-Patters Captured Pres
ident Roosevelt.

A belated speech on the tariff, pur-
porting to have been delivered by
Congressman Cleary on June 25, has
just been published in a special num-
ber of the Congressional Record. The
reason for holding it back until now is
evident, for it could not be published
until President Roosevelt had decided
to stand pat, as the speech took the
position that the president was on the
same ground as the Protective Tarin
league, which advances the idea that
the tariff law is sacred contract with
the trusts and combines that it would
be wicked to abrogate. The publ1ca-
ton now of this belated speech gives
an inside history of the factional fight
in the Republican party, over tariff re-
vision. For when this speech purports
to have been delivered, both the tariff
reform faction and the ultraprotec-
tionists were claiming the president
as on their side of the issue and 1t
was not until the now famous stand
pat agreement between Speaker Can
non and the president at Oyster Bay
was consummated that it was known
which faction should really claim him.
The McCleary speech was evidently
held in abeyance until the stand-pat-
ters captured the president.
There is no doubt that the Protec-
tive Tariff league, with its influential
hackers, the trust monopolists, had
been diligently working" President
Roosevelt, 20 show him that to per-
sist in advocating tariff revision
would "split the party" and leave him
with only a comparatively small fol-
lowing. That argument was too much
for Mr.. Roosevelt and he surrendered
to the stand-pat faction and the Nc
Clcary speech was let loose on the un-
fortunate Republican voters.

MONEY IN ELECTIONS.
Plans Proposed by Democrats to Pre-
vent Political Corruption.

All good citizens are anxious to
abolish political corruption, but there
is a difference of opinion about just
how it can best be accomplished. Gov.
Hughes, of New York, recommends
corrupt practices act, which would
prevent any candidate from contribut-
ing but limited amount. Mr.. Hearst,
who was the Democratic candidate for
governor at the last election and paid
nearly all the campaign expenses, in
a signed statement successfully shows
how Intellectual the Hughes plan will
be, as it would throw the financial sup
port of the campaign into the hands
of the financiers or corporation mag
mates and make the candidates their
debtors
81 would call Mr.. Hughes sugges.
tion,' says Mr.. Hearst, "a measure to
prevent any financial independence on
the part of the candidates, and to
compel candidates to be under obliga'
tions to large financial interests for
their campaign funds.
"The public knows sufficiently well
what kind of services those large
financial interests require from elect
ed officials in return for the campaign
contributions that have helped to
elect them. Therefore, maintain that
the proper method is to limit strictly
the amount of money which may be
spent on an erection, and not to limit
merely the amount which candidate
may himself contribute in an effort to
be free and independent of corpora
ton control"
That argument is certainly
suuelcher for Gov. Hughes, for what
honest voters are striving for, is not
so much that there shall be no money
for legitimate campaign expenses, but
that the candidates elected shall not
be under obligations to certain inter
ests that will demand a return of fa-
vors for the money they have sub
scribed. Mr.. Hearst also calls atten-
ton to his bill to prevent and punish
bribery as a much more effective
measure against political corruption,
which if energetically enforced, 1t Ger.
tainly would be.
it is almost impossible to prevent
the use of money in elections, but II
can be made possible to unseat sue
cessfully candidates who have been
proved guilty of corruption, or who
are elected by the corrupt methods OF
their party associates or friends. Such
a law has virtually abolished bribery
and corruption in Great Britain and
should be effectual here. All plans
that do not include the punishment OF
the candidate, who himself or through
others benefits by corrupt methods,
will only be partially effective.
