tatives Of many influential industrial
and municipal bodies.
1t is the hope of the promoters Of
the convention to persuade the presi-
dent to give in his December message
to congress strong Endorsement Of
the waterway project.
1t can be said, however, that what
he may do in this respect will be
guided by the opinion of the inland
water development commission, which
was created by the president last
spring for the express purpose Of ex-
amining into the lakes-to-the-gulf prop
osition.
The commission, accompanied by
the president for the greater part Of
the distance, will inspect the Missis-
sippi river from st. Paul to Memphis.
Advocates of the construction Of

the Memphis convention to induce the
president and the waterway commits
sion to make an immediate beginning
on the work.

A TREMENDOUS, concerted, and

Chicago, and the Mississippi. During

MILLION DOLLARS NEEDED
FOR GRAIN INSPECTION

THE indications are that the work
! of the experimental laboratories
for the study of scientific grain in
spection and grading, recently estab-
lished In st. Louis, Minneapolis, Du-
luth and New York, will be carried on
next year on much more elaborate
scale than at present
The congressional appropriation for
the work this year Is $4,000. Last
year $4,000 was considered sufficient.
1t is probable that next year Secretary
Of Agriculture Wilson will urge con-
gress to spend $1,000,000 or more in
this important field.
The plan is to appoint a general
commission to take general supervi-
sion Of the entire business of deter
mining the grade and character Of
grain.
The smallness of the appropriations
in the past have prevented the de-
partment from doing great deal OF
effective work. In fact, 1t is declared
by some of the experts on matters
pertaining to grains that the present
hit-or-miss method Of inspection is ut
terly worthless.
For instance, 1t Is pointed out, that
the most important factor In deter
mining the value and grade Of wheat
is the proportion Of moisture 1t con-
tains. This runs all the way from IL
The L'Anse sentinel., 1907-10-05

not likely to arise on account of them.
The application of the Monroe
Doctrine" or the Drago doctrine, the
exercise Of so-called rights by Japan
over Korea, Japan's interest In China.
as distinguished from the rights Of
other powers, the Congo question and
matters Of live interest in diplomatic
exchanges are the things the ambas.
sadors are expected to talk about.
So far as can now be seen, nothing
In the way of treaties will result.
There is no such intention. It is to
be merely a getting together to ex.
change views and have an informal
understanding among the powers
about what they would do in certain
contingencies.
The greatest Of these contingencies
is the death or abdication of the en-
press dowager of China. When that
happens 1t Is feared there will be
trouble, either on account of China's
jealousy, of Japan or Chinese hatred
on the Manchu dynasty. !.
The L'Anse sentinel., 1907-10-05

to 2S per cent under ordinary circum.
stances.
A grain containing % per cent. OF
water will ferment and spoil in an ele-
vator or ships hold under unfavDra-
BILE conditions, and, therefore. is dan.
gerous grain to buy. Yet its kernels
are pretty sure to be plump, sound and
handsome, and to secure high grad
ing by the inspector, who judges chief
ly by appearances.
On the other hand, a grain from q
dry country, which contains IL per
cent. or thereabouts Of moisture, is
not as handsome, as rule, and will
be graded lower. Yet this grain when
put into ship for voyage across the
ocean will absorb considerable per-
centage of moisture and will reach
its destination looking fine, plump
and full, with an increase, Of several
per cent, in weight.
The shipper actually stands to
make more money on certain grains
as result of their absorption Of
moisture on voyage, than the cost OF
freight. He could make money by
loading his grain on boat, giving 1t
q voyage for its health and bringing
1t back to the first port for sale.
This is merely a suggestion Of the
inefficiency of the present methods Of
testing grain.

REMOVING HORNS FROM CATTLE.
Better to Let Them Grow and Then
Dehorn Than to Prevent Growth.

Many who write on this subject
recommend the removal of horns, so
to speak, by preventing them from
growing. This sounds well, but it is
at least open to question as to wheth.
er 1t is better to prevent horns from
growing by the application Of some
caustic material or to take them of
at later period.
To prevent horns from growing Is
not in all instances the easy task that
some persons imagine 1t to be. II too
much caustic potash, which is gener-
ally used, is applied, it will burn too
deeply. II too little Is applied the
horns will not be sufficiently checked.
and second application will be nee
sssary. Many of those who have used
this application have not used 1t with
entire success. The result has been
miniature horns that have been more
or less deformed The caustic is more
or less dangerous to handle. II any
Of 1t should reach any other part, and
this Is easily possible unless the
calves are isolated, 1t will remove the
hair. 1t is also very easy to injure the
fingers unless great care is exercised
in handling the potash. and 1t must
be kept with care or 1t will waste.
But there is the strong objection. says
Orange Judd Farmer, to such dehorn-
ing arising from the fact that animals
dehorned young learn to push with
the head and to strike in a way that
they would not IL the horns were al
lowed to grow until they can punch
Just a little with them and they are
then cut of. The loss Of the horns
seems to discourage them so much
that it takes all Of the fight out OF
them. The most docile animals by
far are those who have lost their
horns after they have come to know
how they could use them.

HINTS FOR FARM HORSES.

Never shout at a young horse while
training him.
A well grown yearling is worth
more than stunted two-year-old.
Keep the colts feet in good shape.
Do not let the toes become too long.
Irregular feeding makes thin
horses, no matter what amount is
given.
The oat box should be large, with
broad bottom, so that the oats will
scatter and not be bolted.
The brood mare should have few
hours exercise in the yard or on the
road every day. 1t, does not pay to
keep her confined.
The horses and colts should be kept
away from the hens and hogs. The
odor Of the pigpen is offensive to the
horse, and hen lice are hard to erad-
icate.
See to it that the work collars fit
and that they ara kept soft and clean
There are few things more discourag-
ing in the beginning of a busy season
than horses with sore shoulders, and
this vexation and cruelty can be
avoided by the exercise of proper
care.

pure bred dams IL possible. Cole
