A Tariff Commission.

senator Warner Of Missouri has
introduced a bill for the appoint
ment of a commission by the presi-
dent to go over the tariff carefully
and to make a report which will
give points on which congress can
revise the tariff in a session to be
called by the republican president
who is to be elected this year and
to meet as early as possible after
the inauguration In March, 1909.
Senate Beverage has introduced a
bill on the same subject which diff
fers in some respects from that of
the Missouri man. Several bills on
thai question are booked to be in
troduced in the house. The COM
m!ttees OIL each branch will frame
and report a measure containing the
best points in these bills.
All the men who are introducing
these bills are friends of the tariff.
Senator Warner takes pains to de-
clare that he stands ":squarely upon
tthe doctrine of protection" He be-
lieves that any sort of a revision
of the tariff will, for the moment,
disturb business, but he thinks that
through the action of a commission
of tariff experts we can determine
scientifically what changes are war
ranted." He believes that from time
to time, as conditions change, there
should be some changes in the sched-
nlnS and q o0no m icSjOn nc ;~ko11s-a-A
unbiased men will be able to suggest
alterations here and there in the
schedules which will meet the de-
mands of trade, and offer the least
possible disturbance to business.
This looks like sense. There will
be no tariff talk in the present ses-
sion of congress. The tariff will not
be disturbed in any spot by the
congress that was elected in 1906,
and which will step out on March 4,
1909. Most of the republicans, how
ever, favor a revision by the con
gress which will be elected in 1908.
And they would like to have it take
place just as soon as possible after
the republican president steps into
Office in March. 1909. President Nc
Kinley called congress in session for
q similar purpose just as 500 as he
entered Office in March 1897, and
the act which it framed at that time
and which is in operation still, was
the best balanced tariff law which
ever went on the statute book. 1t
was framed at a time when politics
was absent. and it was framed SO
quickly that the disturbance. to bust
ness was comparatively slight

OMAHA MARKET LETTER.
Cattle Receipts Less Last Week than
for Corresponding Period of

Year Previous.
Cattle receipts this week we're al
most twice as large as last, but fell
nearly 1000 short of the correspond
ing week last year. There has been
some improvements in the quality of
tire offerings. During the early part
Of the week packers were rather
bearish on account of the heavy sup
plies, but a vigorous demand from
eastern shippers infused consider
able life and strength in to the trade
and stiffened values very materially
for the balance of the week, so that
closing quotations were strong to
a shade higher I'll around. Cows and
heifers were veal Fl the first part of
the week, but the g tive outside de-
mand strengthened values very ma
terially later, aE& the close was at
the high point OF the week. Through
out the week there has been a strong
healthy undertone to the trade and
the general trade has been in very
satisfactory shape. In stockers and
feeders the demand has exceeded the
supply, and the trend of values has
ben higher for desirable offerings Of
all weights, the advance amounting
to loo to 15c for good stock. Low
grade, light and medium stuff has
been SLOW throughout. The volume
of business has been rather light,
but a good clearance has been made.
Heavy supplies of hogs at all mar
kets had 4 rather depressing in
fluence on the trade, but the outlet
for the hogs las been exceptionally
broad and the decline in prices moth
ing like as heavy as might have been
anticipated. The eastern shipping
demand has been unusually strong,
while the easing up of the money
market has stimulated buying on the
part of local packers, SO that at no
time has there been anything like a
glut in the receipts. All classes of
buyers are paying a slight premium
for the good heavy hogs, but as has
been the case for some time past,
weight Is not SO important a con-
sideration as quality, and the range
of prices continues comparatively
narrow. Despite the heavy re-
ceipts at all markets the tone to the
trade has not been at all bearish, and
both local and eastern packers are
evidently anxious for the hogs at
prevailing prices.
Although sheep supplies have been
increasing of late the increase has
not been commensurate with the i'm
provement in the demand, and prices
have been working higher every day.
Dealers have been disappointed at
the size Of the receipts, and there is
a strong undertone to the market
which is likely to continue so long
as the present active demand for
mutton exists. Very few feeding
sheep and lambs are changing hands
at this time, and values are very IT.

WHY NOT HERE?

The other day that enterprisine
organization for promoting the in
terests of Deadwood, the Deadwood
Business club, set the ball a rolling
for an exposition to be held in that
city some time in August. The idea
is to have the show meal to the
Black Hills country what the Mitch
ell Corn Palace and the Pierre Gas
Belt Exposition near to the dis
tricts of which those cities are the
CENTER" The products Of the Black
Hills and the regions contiguous to
them are to be gathered and placed
on exhibition at the institution the
Deadwood folks are contemplating
as a permanent feature.
1t so happens that the thought of
holding an annual fair along prac-
tically the same lines as those men
toned above, has entered the heads
of certain local men, their idea, of
course being that Rapid City is the
place for holding such an affair, If
for no other reason than its super
Tor geographical location, lying as
it does between the farming and min
ing regions and easily accessible
from all the points Of the compass
by rail, since the new lines have
been completed.
While the Deadwood hustlers are
to be commended for the energy
they are manifesting in boosting
their town, the fact must not be over
locked, that Rapid City is in a posi-
tion to dispute the claims Of any
other town as the central point for
the Black Hills and western South
Dakota. In fact all that remains to
establish the truth Of this state
ment is for the people Of this com
munity to get a hump on themselves
as our neighbor of the Northern
Hills has done and once things are
started this way they will continue
to come, for the particular fitness Of
Rapid City to wear the crown as
state is admitted by practically ev-
cry visitor within our gates who has
Judged from a fair and unbiased
standpoint.
The thing to do now is to help
make the DeadWood show a world
heater and get the crowds coming
this way. Every II is hearing
about Rapid nowadays and will want
to visit the city either coming or go
ing from the carnival.
The easily apparent advantages OF
Rapid City commercially, geograph-
ically and otherwise, can be pointed
out to the visitors at first hand,
nlakingitacomparatively simple mat
ter at a later date to successfully ad-
vance the claims of Rapid City as
the natural choice for the exposition

territory,

Change In Feeding Methods.

If poultry experiments have done
noting more for us than to teach
us the folloy of feeding wet and slop-
py feeds, the money and time has not
been spent in vain. Up till a few
years ago every poultry raiser had
his or her pet mess that was claimed
absolutely essential to the welfare of
the poultry and the keeper. 1t never
occurred to many of us that some of
been wrong, and that had nature
intended that fowls should be fed
mushes, it would have provided one
that would have been about right.
We mixed and fuses, often killing
our chicks, and became disguised
we sat down and calmly watched
the birds themselves we would have
been saved a lot of work, worry and
expense.
We have come to know that if we
provide abundance of clean, whole
some grain and seeds and something
of an animal nature take the place
OF the insects the birds would pick
up were they at liberty, that the
birds will do tn rest. They know
more about what they want and when
they want it than we do, and they
have more time to make the selection
Practical down-to-date poultry
men are now using the hopper
method 0 feeding and find it an
improvement on the old way. The
hoppers are partitioned so that sew
eral varieties of feeds are kept be-
fore the fowls continually, and they
can eat at will. Under the old meth
cd it was no small task to keep the
feeding utensils clean. Many thought
they did it but there would be times
on all plants and farms when time
was scarce, cleaning was neglected.
food soured and became filthy and
then there was trouble. With the
hopper method the food is kept clean
and then too, the attendant does
not have to watch the clock and
every few hours drop everything else
to mix, and feed the chicks. Now
the hoppers are so built as to hold
feed enough to last several days and
the attendant has but to see that they
are not empty, and to provide clean
drinking water.

Build THAT Ice House Now.

The farm home that does without
ice nowadays is not living up to it's
best opportunities. 1t does not take
much of a house to store ice perfect
ly, and the tools for cutting are in
expensive. The two essentials of
storage are thorough drainage. aud
careful packing to prevent surface
exposure. If there is not good nat
ural drainage, tiles should be laid to
carry off all surface water. together
with the drainage from melting ice.
Pack THO blocks uniformly, one layer
on top of another, and fill in with
sawdust all the spaces between the
blocks, and between the blocks and
the walls of the building. Where
sawdust is not available coarse hay
may be used, but this does not make
very good packing. Use a now pillow
to make a clean field, and then use a
saw or ice plow for cutting the blocks
the right size, as they will pack much
better.
