Then some scintillating genius
among the brethren suggests that an
Injunction be obtained from some per-
fectly unbiased" judge. A descent
is made upon the courts, a perfectly
unbiased" and complaisant jurist is
picked out, who issues an Injunction,
and the "four-1ushers" gather to offer
ZIP thanks. An appeal being taken
from his ruling, the state court, or the
supreme court of the United States,
hands down an opinion that the "un-
biased judge is an ''ass," or words to
that effect, and the injunction is dis
solved.
T%hereupon the 'four-flushers" hold
additional meetings in which they de-
nounce the supreme courts, and, as
soon as a new set of authorities come
into power, resume the old bluff" of
asking that the business which they

USE ONLY GOOD SALT.
And Be Careful 1t Is Kept Away from
Communicating Odors.

Use only good salt in the sailing of
butter. Great care should be taken
in selecting salt for butter-making, as
salt absorbs odors and will then carry
them to the butter. Numerous cases
have come to light in which tainted
salt caused taints in butter.
In one grocery the salt was by the
side of the kerosene barrel. That salt
was heard from later in the butter Of
the farmers, some of which came to
that same grocery and was rejected
because of the slight smell of kerosene
in it.
In another grocery the salt was in
the same room with a pile of Goldfish.
The Goldfish soon had the salt per.
meated with the Goldfish smell. That
salt went into the farm butter in the
vicinity and was heard from in a but
ter show in which butter sailed with
that salt was "off in flavor"
For home consumption it does
not make much difference what kind of
salt is used, for the family is general
ly able to eat the butter, but when
butter is to be sold it is far different.

IMPROVING DAIRY HERDS.
Many Theories as to What Are the
Best Methods.

There are as many theories as t.
the breeding of dairy cattle as there
are different breeds Of cattle. Wher'
one succeeds another fails and results
are often found to be contradictory
No problem in the live stock industry
is more pe~rplexing to the breeder
With thousands of babies being fec
upon milk it is essential that only the
best should be supplied, and this sup
ply can only be obtained from the best
breeds of dairy cattle.
Mr.. i. p. Bailey, preside 1T Of the
Ohio state board of agriculture, says
in speaking of improving the dairy
herd:
my experience teaches me there
are w ways by which a breeder can
improve his herd. First, he must have
in mind his individual ideal type,
which he should always aim to attain;
this can only be done by selection and
proper mating Of both sire and dam.
In selecting a sire for my herd, l insist
On seeing personally the dam. She
must be of dairy form, according to
my own idea-teats above medium
size, udder running we'll forward and
straight down behind, extending out
past the curve in han or legs. The
above conformation is of greater value
to me than any great phenomenal milk
test she may OF may not have made; |
also insist on seeing the ancestors as
far back as possible and knowing to
a certainty, as near as possible, that
they are meritOrious animals. | be-
ter established than that like produces
like yet we all know that even with
the best of mating we sometimes get
inferior animals. This is mostly caused
by some inferior ancestor, perhaps
several generations back.
Never allow the calf to get fat in
the sense that the beef breeder would
desire. Keep it in good thrifty, grow
ing condition, teach it to eat a maxi
mum amount of roughness, such as
clover hay and silage, and a minimum
amount of grain. Continue this meth
cd until within three or four months
of cowhood, then feed proper concen-
trates literally so as to develop the
milk secreting organs for service after
the birth of the calf. l prefer the
heifer being about 80 months old be-
fore coming into milk. With proper
kind of feed, care and regularity in
the rearing of dairy cattle, there will
be overcome a vast amount of ignOr-
ance in breeding. and the will

they understand the laws Of mating

stronger of the two. "a" finances the
nomination of an independent" can

think will weaken "B's" chances. If
"B" thinks the move will weaken him,
he may up with an independent can

All this is "four-flushing" to make
the voters believe there are four or
five "Richmonds in the field" when, in
fact, "a" and 'B" are the only real
figures in the contest, and the extra
candidates are fakes" And the
beauty about it is that these 'inde-
pendent" or other campaigns are often
waged ~valiantly and a tremendous
amount of dust and excitement kicked
up about them.
Reform is a prolific source Of politi-
cal "four-fushing." Take some bust
ness which offends certain of the more
~puritanically inclined citizens. This
business may be regularly licensed
and declared legal, and there may be
constitutional grounds which, until a
change in the constitution, would alb

No one but a rank "foUr-1usher'
makes these senseless breaks" but
the large cities simply swarm with
rank 'four-flushers."
A favorite scheme of the standard
"f~our-fushers" in elections was to put
up an independent" dummy candi-

not always work.
In politics l have see enormous
quantities of "four-f1ushing" INDUCED
In; and in fact about two-ffths Of all
politics is "fo~ur-f1ushing."
In the various angles of the political
game there may be counter -four
flushing" or practicing the art on
both sides, or if there are four or five
candidates in the field, there may be
only one candidate who really stands
any show of election, and a quartette
of ''four-flushers" gaily bringing up
the rear. The also rams" have entered
the race for various reasons Some
of them get a little notoriety, some of
them to try their political strength,
and others for the purpose of leading
a forlorn hope against the probable
winner.

This gentleman would keep on swell

and hen he would disappear for a few
days. When he reappeared, with his
ward knocked "galley-west" in the
election, and about 80 per cent. of his

| SpSCILHeH, ana IL HeINy proposition.
A certain hotelkeeper had been Sc
lected as a candidate for aldermanic
honOrs. At party headquarters, after
his name had been offered and deter
mined upon, a committee of 'promi
nent citizens" was picked out to mott
fy the gentleman of the honor which
had been accorded him. Among
others, this "hot sport" was chosen, as
he was a very neat talker, and the
craftsmanship Of the notifying commit.
tee was reserved to him, as the man
who was best qualified to break the
news to the hotelkeeper of his selec-
ton as the aldermanic standard.
bearer.
At that time Of the year, early
spring, a number of these prominent
citizens" were wearing light over.
coats, and our hero was nattily attired
in one which buttoned high to his
throat, with an immaculate silk muf.
fer folded neatly above it.
AS the committee entered the rotun-
da of the hotel it met the then city
clerk, who, on invitation, accompanied
them on their trip.
The Boniface was sen for, a pri.
vate opened and the gentleman
with the dove-colored spring overcoat
and silk muller stepped from the
group of prominent citizens" and
urged the acceptance by the tentative
candidate of the honor vouchsafed
him. 1t was a neat speech, and told

were present, anxious to lend their
prestige and solid business standing
to his campaign, all prominent bust,

the ward taken care of in the council
by a nan of their own stamp.
The hotelkeeper was very much
gratified, accepted the honor in a few
words and invited the committee to
take dinner with him, it being just
about six in the evening. All but the
ing accepted the invitation with alac-
rity. The orator, however pleaded an
imperative engagement, and the city
clerk had to catch a train. But as
these two came out of the hotel the
city clerk, who knew his companion
as a sort of "fy-by-night" ward politi.
clan, said, "Why didn't you stay and
take dinner with the committee, Dick?
The old man will give the boys a fine
feed in there"
To which the politician, with a per.
fectly nonchalant air, replied: I'D
have liked to, first rate; but l haven't
got any shirt on" at the same time
opening his spring overcoat and dis
closing underneath his stylish muf-
fer the unmistakable presence of a
neat but not gaudy undershirt next to
his manly chest.
The city clerk reached into his vest
pocket and dislodged a two-dollar bill.
This he handed to his friend. You're
dandy representative citizen all
right, Dick" he remarked, "and a first
class business man. Go and get you a
shirt with that and then buy some
thing to eat"
