Audubon Republican. [volume] (Audubon, Iowa) 1894-1925, 1907-10-17

A Doctor of Divinity, NOW Editor of
a well-known Religious paper, has
written regarding the controversy be-
tween Golfers Weekly and the Re-
ligious Press of the Country and 9TH
ers, including ourselves. Also regard
ing suits for libel brought by Golfers
against us for commenting upon its
methods.
These are his sentiments, with some
very emphatic words left out.
1.-The religious Press owes you
debt Of gratitude for your courage In
showing up Golfers Weekly as the
"Yell-Oh Man." Would you care to
use the inclosed article on the boo
Hoo Baby as the "Yell-Oh Mans
successor"
"a contemporary remarks that Cob
Hers has finally run against a solid
hickory Post" and been damaged in
fits own estimation to the tune of
$750,000.00."
Here is a publication which has, in
utmost disregard of the facts, spread
broadcast damaging statements about
the Religious Press and others and
has suffered those false statements to
go uncontradicted until, not satisfied
after finding the Religious Press too
quiet, and peaceful, to resent the in
suits, 1t makes the mistake of wander
ing into fresh field and butts its rat
tied head against this Post and all the
World laughs. Even Christians smile,
as the Post suddenly turns and gives
1t back dose of its own medicine"
1T is mistake to say all the World
laughs. No CHEEKY laugh comes from
Golfers, but it cries and boo hoos like
a spanked baby and wants $750,000.00
to soothe its tender, lacerated feel
ings."
Thank Heaven 1t has at last struck
q man with back bone" enough to call
a spade spade" and who believes in
telling the whole truth without fear OF
favor"
Perhaps Golfers with it's utmost
disregard for the facts" may say no
such letter exists. Nevertheless 1t Is
on file in our Office and is only one of
a mass of letters and other data, news
paper comments, ETC., denouncing the
yellow" methods of Golfers. This
volume Is SO large that a man could
not well go thru it under half a days
steady work. The letters come from
various parts of America.
Usually a private controversy is not
interesting to the public, but this is
public controversy.
Golfers has been using the yellow"
methods to attract attention to itself,
but, jumping in the air, cracking heels
together and yelling Look at me"
wouldn't suffice, so 1t started out on a
"Holier Than Thou" attack on the Re-
ligious Press and on medicine.
We leave 1t to the public now, as we
did when we first resented Golfers
attacks, to say whether, in craving
for sensation and circulation, it's at
tacks do not amount to systematic
mercenary bounding. We likewise
leave 1t to the public to say whether
Golfers. by its own policy and meth

The Way of the Child.

A small boy who had recently
passed his fifth birthday was riding
in car with his mother, when they
were asked the customary question:
How old is the boy?" After being
told the correct age, which did not
require fare, the conductor passed
on to the next person.
The boy sat quite still as II ponder
ing over some question, and then.
concluding that full information had
not been given, called loudly to the
conductor, then at the other end OF
the car: "And mothers 81"

A Break IN the Ceremony.

Little Tom was two years old and
talking before his proud parents took
him to be christened /. Though limit
ed, his vocabulary included one or
two choices words picked up from his
father. OF course, he looked like
perfect little cherub on the eventful
day, with his wide blue eyes and shin
ing curls and mother had got him up
in great shape for the ceremony. At
the most impressive point Tom turn
ed to his father and exclaimed In ag-
gravated tones: why, damn 1t, he
wet my head!"

The "Mound CITY,"

st. Louis rejoices in the sobriquet
OF Mound City from the fact that the
original settlers found there many
elevations which it is supposed were
relics of that strange people who
dwelt In the Ohio and Mississippi val
leys and are known to modern times
only as the Mound Builders. No ade-
quate explanation has yet been found
of their strange mode of leaving
memorials Of their existence. The
limestone bluffs on which a part of
st. Louis stands furnish solid foun-
dation for the business buildings.

spirit of banter, said to the emperor:
You know, your majesty, that

But there was one king you cared
great deal for" said the emperor
quickly. And who was that?" de-
manded Mr.. Carnegie. Robert Bruce"

A Younu Composer.

Rachel, aged IL, wrote an compo-
sition on wild flowers in which she
praised the arbutus, the liverwort,
the spring beauty, the blood root, and
all of the other blossoms of dell and
dale. But she wrote on both sides
of her sheet of paper. and when she
asked her father, who was an editor,
to publish her article, he called her
attention to that fact.
you've written on both sides of
your paper" said he.
WELL" was the reply, "and don't
you print on both sides of yours?"

guide, its 80 feet"
Similar replies were made to other
questions of like nature, each be-

that it was according to hist'ry."
Finally there was reached a part of
the battlements where the hill on
which the castle stands descends alb

HORSE THAT COULD REASON.
Physician Tells Of Animals Conduct
on Stormy Night.

The best story told in an evening OF
amusing talk at the winship club
meeting this week was that of DR..
Paul about his partner in business for
score of years or more, his horse.
When the doctor and he were 20 years
younger in practice DR.. Paul received
a hurry" night call from one of the
best families in his circle They lived
mile or more away in a rural neigh
borhood and although it was late at
night and storming the doctor rushed
out there at full speed.
On arriving in the yard at the house
he threw the blanket hastily upon or,
rather, at the horse (who never re.
CURED hitching), for it was found af-
terward lying on the ground at his
side, and dashed into the house with
his case of instruments. It turned
out that the aged grandmother of the
family had had fall, that her should
er was dislocated, that ether had to be
administered the pain was so great
in short the doctor could not take his
hand off his work for three hours.
All this time a driving sleet storm,
the moisture freezing as it fell and
giving everything a coat of ice, was
beating upon his partner out in the
yard
When the doctor finally emerged in
the small hours was to find the horse
where he had left him. except that the
rig was headed round for home. A
daylight examination revealed the
truth through the marks of the hoofs
and wheels of the buggy that during
his long wait of three hours in pelt-
ing and freezing storm, the horse had
a score of times made up his mind to
go home and had gone down the road
sometimes a quarter, sometimes half
OF the way, and then had thought this
hard on the doctor and had turned
back to wait as in duty bound.
If this Is not demonstration not
only of reasoning power but also of
moral consciousness, what is it? 1t
is needless to say that the doctor re-
spects his subhuman partner and
would no more think of parting with
him till death doth them part than
he would with any member of his fam.
lily. His back is bowed with the weight
OF n years; he is no longer the hand
som trotter he once was, but he is

same, and he will not be supplanted,
in spite of the publics smiles.-Boston

HINTS FOR FARMERS
Salt Far Dairy Cows.

Extensive tests and Investigations
have been made by the experiment sta
lions to determine the advisability or
adding salt to the ration Of dairy cows.
AS n result OF these trials, 1t Is recon-
mended that dairy cows be given at
least one ounce OF salt per day. Elk
reptionally heavy mixers will require
more than this. The uniform results
obtained with all cows employed In
these trials indicate that salt in addi-
ton to that obtained in their food Is
absolutely essential to the continued
health of dairy cow while producing
milk. 1t Ia evident, moreover, that the
amount OF salt which must be supplied
directly will greatly vary In different
localities. II being more at high eleva-
lions and at places remote from the
sea-

To Keen the Horse Healthy.

An unthrifty condition Of horse IL
frequently due to sharp edges on the
grinding teeth, which prevent mastica-
ton of the food. Have these filed on.
Imperfect chewing may be partly a
habit. and the horse must be specially
cared for to overcome 1t. Nail four
inch strip at the top Of the manger so
that he can not throw out his hay.
and sprinkle the grain through 1t so
that he will be compelled to eat the
grain slowly. Feed whole grain sepa-
rately from ground feed. Sometimes
no other treatment than the foregoing
il needed to restore horse to good
condition. The addition of a pint OF
oilmeal to the ration is a help.-Farm

siIaos FOR Beef Cattle.

Feeders Of beef cattle have always
had prejudice against silage. Re-
cent experiments have shown that
steers will make an excellent growth
II fed some rich feed along with corn
silage and will gain quite az fast a.
when on good pasture. The dairy type
steer IL not so profitable for beef, a.
he shows low dressing percentage
and high percentage Of offal. Fat on
the internal organs increases the
weight OF the cheaper parts. The beef
steer puts on tat on the higher priced
cuts.

Dairy Cow. Economic Feed.

When it Is considered that the same
fo0dstuffs fed to cows produces very
much more nutriment In the shape of
milk than when fed for beef it is seen
why the dairy industry is so important.
As stated in the work on feeding by
Professor III. r. Smith of the Nebraska
station, "a per cent or more energy is
expended by the steer in celebrating
food in the form Of meat than is ex-
pended by the COW In celebrating the
same quantity in the form Of milk. =
OF course 1t must be understood that
the kind Of cow to do this must be Of
the dairy type.

Manure Trenches.

More mistakes are made in the con-
struction of manure trenches than in
any other simple feature connected
with cow stalls. Ii less than eight
inches deep, cows will stand with
their hind feet in them and will step
into them In passing in and out. II
eight to ten inches deep, cows soon
learn to step over them, and very few
cows will stand with their hind feet
in them. The trench should be wide
enough TO admit a scoop shovel, and
this means fifteen to eighteen inches
wide. Trenches Of this size will hold
two days accumulations, which in
case of storms is a great convenience
