If we are to make as rapid progress

providing exercise, which was done by
installing tread power.
There is no opening in the stall or

Jack, which stand at the remote end Of
the yard, are accessible to the stall by
narrow raised walk protected by a
strong rail.
When 1t Is desired to exercise the
bull, who Is allowed the freedom of
his stall and yard, rope is snapped
into his ring. This is done by simply
reaching through the bars of his stall
as he stands at his manger. The end
is passed through the door, and the at
tendant, stepping through another
opening, leads him along the passage
way as shown in the cut. He takes
his place readily In the power, and the
attendant handles the brake. When it
Is desired to use the breeding rack. the
cow Is made fast in position, and the
gate which was formerly in front of
the rack is swung over in, front of the
power and serves as guard to the at
tendant. With this arrangement no
one need be injured. The power gen
Grated is not utilized here except as it
has swcetened the disposition and re-
juvenated the physical powers Of Lad.
He was decidedly dangerous when first
put to work, but Is now a gentleman.
Not only that; lie is a sure breeder.
A previous owner intimated that so
old bull could not be trained to work
on power. He has worked from the
first and seems to enjoy 1t. The equip

fulness of q sire Is considered. The
good results coming from this trial en-
courage us in advocating more strong
ly than ever the use of mature sires,
because they can be handled safely
and easily. 1t would be wiser perhaps
to train them to toll while young rath-
err than keep them In that senseless
show condition which conduces to bad
temper and undermines vitality, says

SOCIOLOGICAL
Government Ownership Inevitable.

James J. Hill, president of the Great
Northern, upon arriving at New York
gave to the press an interview in which
he said that eventually he believed that
the government would be forced to
lend its credit to the railroads in or
der to finance their necessities, based
upon the demands of The public for bet
ter conditions Of the service and that
this would eventually lead to govern
ment ownership of the railroads. He
added, however, that il such a thing
| comes to pass 1t would mean the end
Of republican government. Mr.. Hill
| also said there had been a general
slowing up In business during the past
year or so, and he thought this tenden-
cy would continue.
In regard to the matter Of the break
Ing Of steel rails he did not hesitate to
charge that the steel trust was trying
to make too much money by working
overtime and otherwise failing to put
out a first class article. He said his
experience was that the open hearth
rails were more breakable than the
bessemer.
Root as an optimist.
In his closing lecture at Yale on the
Responsibilities OF citizenship" Sec

the present outcry against rebates and
prosecution of rebating corporations
lis not evidence that we are grow
ing worse, but evidence that we are
growing better, that our government
Is applying a higher standard Of JUS
tice In the control of public utilities"
He reached this conclusion after re-
viewing a long series Of discreditable
events in American history, dating
back to revolutionary days. He re-
ferred to the days Of the Credit Mo-
bilier scandal, when stock Of powerful
corporations was peddled to law max
ers who were to pass upon measures
affecting those interests, and added
that such thing would not now be
tolerated. He said that the rebating
The Owosso times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1897-1926, 1907-06-21

for which great corporations are now
pursued are merely a form of discrim-
inatory rate which once prevailed
without objection. All railroads did 1t
thirty years ago. and that was the
way they built up their business and
the country through which they ran"
But people began to look at it differ
emily and note the injustice of such
methods. 1t was an advance of
moral standard which gave life to laws
which had been dead before"

TeIesraphers' Demands Ignored.


When the directors of the Western
Union Telegraph company held their
monthly meeting without noticing lin
any official way the demands made by
the Telegraphers' union, the members
Of the union were indignant, and talk
Of proceeding to a strike was general.
If such q strike were called 1t was ex-
pected to involve the Postal Telegraph
company as well, as the same kind Of
grievances are said to exist in the
Postal Offices. The failure Of the
board to notice the memorial of the
union was taken to mean an indOrse-
ment of President Clowry's reply when
the complaints were first made. This
was that there had not been any dis
ordinations against any class of en-
ployees and that the 10 per cent ad-
vance in wages had been paid uni
formly. President Small Of the Teleg-
raphers' union issued a statement say
