Keeping Goat In Stable.

There is an old fashioned precau-

Supposing always that the animals are
loose. the goat will leave the stable
on the outbreak of FIRE. and the horses
will follow the goat when no amount
OF persuasion from man will get the
terrified creatures to bulge.

Heart Interest.

Men love naturally all that comes
from the heart, all that is great, all
that dazzles, and even all that is
strange. A heroic act or single act
OF generosity moves them infallibly
and provokes their enthusiasm. They
see these acts; they do not see the
justice in the heart Of the just

FORAKER NOT
YET DISMAYED

Washington, Feb. Ex-senator For
aker last night gave out a statement
as to the result of the primary cleo
tions in Ohio Tuesday, when the Taft
forces made practically clean sweep
in the selection Of delegates 20 the
republican state convention.
Nobody should be either surprised
or M sled by the result of the primar-
les in Ohio. 1t has been common
knowledge for weeks that the call for
these primaries was of such char
acter that my friends throughout the
state refused to participate. Conse-
quently there was no opposition to the
selections of Taft delegates. Under
such circumstances he would of course
carry everything
"That the result of the primaries
does not indicate anything conclus-
i've should be manifest from the fact
that the total vote polled will not
represent more than 10 per cent. Of
the republicans of Ohio. There were
emily two districts in which there was
any dpplOdSn W q COAtSSb anO AAC9O
contests were due to the fact that
there were opposing candidates in
each district for the nomination to
con ress.
"In the sixth district, the TAFT can
didate was defeated by 1,025, while in
the 18th, Dawes, the Taft leader and
candidate for denomination Is pro-
baby beaten, according to the latest
advices l have received. If there had
been a primary in which we could
have participated, similar results
would have been possible, if not pro
bable, all overt the state.
Recurring to the state convention,
it should be borne in mind that it
will be composed of representatives
OF only one faction of the party, not
because the people have so decided,
but because the course of Taft man
ayers was such as to bar everybody
else out from participation"

ATTAINED.

Washington, Feb. 1S.-When the
agricultural appropriation b.Il was
passed last year n paragraph was in
serted directing Secretary Wilson of
the department of agriculture to in
vestigate and report on the work of
the biological survey. He was par.
ticularly directed to find out whether
the work being done by the govern,
ment ornithologists was of practical
value to the farmers, and whether
their work was being duplicated by
any other department OF the govern
ment Some OF the members OF the
house committee on agriculture had
got an idea that the biological survey
was an ornament rather than an ef-
fecive agency for good, and had
threatened to abolish II by refusing
to make the necessary appropriation.
Secretary Wilson has investigated
as directed and has been told that the
survey has carefully studied the food
habits of our native birds for the pur.
pose of discriminating between bene
fetal and INJURIOUS kinds, and it's pub,
licatons OH the subject are OF great
practical service TO farmers and hor.

basis for legislation throughout the
country. It has shown that forty.
three species of birds destroy the cot
ton boil weeyil In Texas, and Il IS now
urged that such of these as are not
already protected by law be given spe-
cial protection Having discovered
that swallows. among the most valu
