Grain generally, and especially the
selection of seed grains to obtain the
best results on both irrigated and
dry lands, is topic that Prof w.

He not alone talks grain, but also

TAUGHT FARMERS
MANY new THINGS
Continued from page Il

the disease Is known scientifically,
was also taken up, but the Agricul-
tural college seems to have made but
little headway in checking this
disease. 1t is for the most part 10.
Gated in the soil and the treatment
of seed potatoes does not seem to
make any particular difference. 1t
is fungus growth that usually at
tacks the potato stem just below the
surface of the earth. Its presence IS
usually manifested by rusty look
ing spot on the side of the vine.
Sometimes this extends clear around
the vine, and in that case the leaves
of the plant wither and curl up
quickly because Of the interrupted
flow of the sap to and from the
leaves.
Gold Bricks.
The next topic taken up was that
of Gold Bricks. such as Chairman
Ernest R. Bliss owned up to pur-
chasing several Of, flom smooth
agents.
Hail insurance was one OF the
principal bricks that the farmers
have to dodge. and to give clearer
idea of how to distinguish between
the fake and the real in that line of
insurance George NJ. Houston was
called upon to tell of his experiences
with hail insurance companies. He
spoke about the st. Paul Fire &
Marine Insurance company that one
time wrote hail insurance in this
section, and in one year lost Sl2, 900
more than its premiums amounted
to. This was on 6 per cent basis
also, while most Of the fake COM
panies that try to sell the farmer
hail insurance claim to be doing
business on a per cent basis.
Mr.. Houston advised the farmers
to turn down anything in the line of
hail insurance that was not run on a
10 per cent basis, and where the
company could not give the Greeley
banks as guarantee that the losses
should be paid He maintained
positively that no company could do
a square business in that kind of in
surance on less than 10 per cent.

Stock Feeding,

Practically the entire session of
the afternoon was taken up with a
discussion of stock feeding, Prof. w.
l.. Carlyle leading in the talk on
feeding cattle and sheep ana Prof.
Cottrell taking up the matter of hog
feeding especially.
According to Prof. Carlyle one
great trouble in feeding stock was
the lack of variety Of the feed.
Most people would put their cattle
on single diet of hay with possibly
little grain for fattening, in case
the stock was being prepared for
market. He insisted that stock
could not do it's best on that kind of
a diet. Varying the kind of grain,
crushing or taking it, and above all
adding some kind of roots, such as
sugar beets, stock beets or rutabaga,
would bring much better results.
The loots would aid digestion and
furnish substances that are abso-
lutely necessary for flesh building as
well as fattening. He said stock
needed almost as great variety of
feed as the human being in order to
make the former take on weight and
fat.
All feed, he said, has two pro-
perties needed by the animal system.
One of these acts as tissue builder
or flesh producer and the other fur
nishes heat and energy. For nor.
NAL animal the proportion of these
two properties should be one part of
the former to six of the latter, Just
to keep the animal in an even condi.
tion. Any additional per cent of
the latter substance would increase
the heat and energy and would be
stored up as fat in the animal to be
used again when the artificial supply
might be cut off. Oats, he said,
contained just the right proportion
OF the two substances mentioned,
and alfalfa hay very nearly so. But
these two feeds did not furnish
variety enough, and it was therefore
important that the flesh producing
and fat producing properties of any
substitutes for these feeds be deter.
mined, to obtain the desired results
on the stock.
Another thing that should be de.
termined carefully was the amount
OF feed necessary TO keep an animal
at its best. Feed it just as little as
may be required to make 1t gain
steadily and at its best. Otherwise
a great deal of feed would be wasted.
The system can absorb only so much
and make beneficial use of same. A
careful study of the effects of the
feed on different animals-as their
systems differ should also
be kept up. The best results are
usually obtained where the stock

In gratitude for complete relief

have approved that work and they
did il in the face Of the implied
threat that approval of the consh-
tuition and a democratic victory
meant rejection OF the constitution
by president elected as a repub-
licau.
The strong personality of Mr..
Roosevelt figured conspicuously in
the Oklahoma campaign. Every
federal ofiicehoIder in the two terri
tories was fighting hard for repub-
lican victory; and not only was the
great prestige Of a national admin
istration employed at every point,
but the administration was repre-
sented in a particularly clear way
by the personal participation of the
heir apparent to Sir. Rooseyelts
party robe. And when Mr.. Taft
bluntIy advised the Oklahomans to
vote against the democratic const-
tuition bis advice was freely inter-
preted as a reminder that the re-
publican national administration
had the power to unmake the con-
stitution.
But these influences were OF no
avail. Oklahoma and Indian Terri
tory, ambitious for statehood, want.
ed 10 insure for The new common
wealth popular government in its
best sense. To this end they en-
trusted the work Of making a con-
stitution to the democratic party
aud the democratic party proved
itself faithful to the trust.
The fidelity shown by the demo-
cratic constitutional convention and
the purpose displayed by the demo-
cratic candidates for Office have
been recognized and rewarded by a
victory so complete that il must
give encouragement to all men who
participate In politics in the hope
of deriving from government "the
greatest good TO the greatest num-

The OKLAHOMA VICTORY.

II il not necessary to say that the
result in Oklahoma is a great VIC
tory for the democrats. The victory
speaks for iGself.
Il is not necessary to say that the
faithful democrats OF Oklahoma and
Indian Territory are entitled to the
highest praise for the good work
they have accomplished. From ev-
cry section OF the country come
words Of congratuIation to the DEM
ocrais of the new state that is pre-.
pared TO enter the union under par
ticularIy fortunate conditions.
Particularly fortunate we say, be-
cause OkIahoma's brief history is
inseperably associated with the idea
Of popular government. When il
came 70 ghe seciecsi0n OF men who
we're 10 write the constitution for
the new state it was urged by many
that Oklahomans, regardless Of pol
itical prejudice. ought TO entrust
that dssy u sha party Just then
dominant in Tie federal govern
ment. But IN the compaign for the
constitutional convention the proE-
ise Of democrats seemed TO accord
with the purpose Of the Oklahomans

il plain 10 all men that government
Of The people. by the people, for the
people. vas 10 be the shibboleth for
the nsw stale.
The result vas the democrats
won BY large majority in the con-
stitutional convention.
II is not an idle statement to say
that the proceedings Of Oklahoma's
constitutional convention we're
marked with a determination on the
part Of its members to prepare a
constitution that would insure the
people Of ths new state practical
control, for al time. over their pub
lie affairs and their public servants,
Il 10 no idle statement 10 say that
never in the history Of deliberate
assemblies has any body Of men
been accorded more general resOg-
milton for patriotic effort than was
given by men Of all parties to Okla
homa's constitutional convention.
In all the proceedings Of that
great gathering there was no breath
Of scandal. No one complained
that the members Of the convention
we're looking out for special in
terests. No one suggested that
their work left loop holes for cor
pcrations. 1t was said that the con-
stitution was too long but some who
made that COMPLAINT meant that it
was too explicit in its efforts TO safe
guard the public interests. When
the attorney general for the URited
States pointed ont what be coneeiv-
ed 10 be.eertain defects the consti-
tutional convention made correc-
tons accordingly. Il is not strange,
then, that it was with some degree
Of confidence that ths men who
wrote this constitution submitted
their work for the approval Of their
fellow citizens. With significant

EVER TRUE TO GREEN ISLE.
lrishman's Patriotism Greater Than
His Courtesy.

Stories regarding the various repre-
sentatives of the British isles who
are frequently made the butt of jokes
were the order of the evening at a
gathering of Scotchmen at the Fourth
Presbyterian church recently, the &C.
casion being Burns meeting. Rev.
William McCaughan contributed this
one: AN Englishman, a Scotchman
and an Irishman were conversing to-
gether, when the Scotchman asked the
Englishman to what nationality he
would belong if he could not be an
EEglishman.
It'd be Scotchman,,' replied the
Englishman. What would you be un-
der the same circumstances he asked
his questioner.
MOT to be outdone in courtesy, and
wishing to show his great admiration
foi his English friend, the Scotchman
replied: I'd be an Englishman if l
couldn't be Scotchman.
Turning to the Irishman, who up
to this time had been left out of the
conversation, they sought his answer
to the same question.

the isle across the water, if couldn't

TOURISTS WELCOME IN SPAIN.
Government to systematically Encour
age Foreign Visitors.

The Spanish government has Gre
ated national commission-witha u-
thority to expend generous sums Of
money-whose sole duty it is to "en-
courage, by whatever means are at it's
disposal, the visit Of foreigners, either
those coming for pleasure or for i'm
provement.'
Taking their cue from the example
and success of America and Switzer-
land the Spaniards are beginning to
appreciate the commercial benefits re-
sulting from a thriving tourist trade,
thus furnishing evidence that this an
Gent nation, which has heretofore held
itself aloof from foreigners, has
awakened to the need of cultivating a
wider intercourse with the outside
world.
Among the methods to be inaugu-
rated by the committee is the prepa-
ration and circulation in other lands
of itineraries for travel which will
best give opportunities for visiting the
principal natural and artistic monu-
AACAIo, AouOSCdpcS duu Mdlluc View
and other points which may most
readily and proftably interest foreign
ers.
The commission will also invoke the
aid of the railway companies and seek
the Inauguration, by systematic and
cooperative methods, of special pas
senger rates, comfortable trains and
other conveniences of modern travel,
so that the traveller may arrange his
tour from the seaports through the in
terror, on the most attractive routes,
even before he leaves home.
The expenses of the commission and
its work will be borne by the govern.

to cooperate with municipal authori.
