A Noted Change.

We are somewhat surprised
to find a change in politics in
the Case County Democrat, ed
tied by Chas. L. Chase, one Of
the most able political writer's
in Iowa. That he has a perfect
right to change his position
goes without saying. A man
in this free country is the only
judge to determine his religious
or political affiliations, for let
it be known now and forever,
that a mans politics and reIi-
gion is strictly personal that
no man or party is the owner
of either, nor has any man tie
right to question the honesty
of any man who changes his
relations either in church or
state. It is, we admit, very
hard to think any man, these
strenuous times can leave tie
Democratic party and go over
to the G. o. p, but if sufficient
reasons for any to do so, it is
none of our business to ques-
tion his honesty. We admit
that if a man has been brougl t
up on good Democratic milk,
the change to the slop from
the Republican kitchen is not
very enticing, but if it satisfies
the political hunger of any ms n
we ought to be perfectly salts
fled. We are a peculiar people
what is a sufficient reason fer
one man to cause a change, may
be a stronger reason to another
man to stand firm, so we say to
Brother Chase may you find
your new friends more congen-
ial to you, and your future be
satisfactory.

Quoted you to the dining room
and seated you at the table.
All have to wait until a bell is
rung by the room steward,
when all go to work on the
grub. An amusing incident
happened to a new recruit a
few days ago. He took his
seat and noticing his filled
bowl setting on his plate,
caught up the salt, gave sever
al dashes in the contents of the
bowl, also put in a supply of
pepper and then noticed no one
was eating, yet paused with his
sp,an IN hand and at the sound
of the b Y, seeing the others
begin movements, took a spoon
full of his supposed soup and
found it was his coffee which
was prepared with sugar and
milk before leaving the kitchen.
He remarked, ooh H." and
hardly looked up during the
balance Of the meal. At the
sound of the bugle at 6 a. M.
All get up, make their toilet
and also make up their bed,
that being the only work re-
quired of them, and that only
of those able to do so. For
those unable, the ward porter
will attend to. After break
fast some take their baths, all
having to be in their place at 8
a. M, for inspection by the DR..
in charge of the ward, except
on Saturday. Either the
groom or one of the other doc

nurse and chief steward pass
through the ward which has
been thoroughly cleaned the
previous day and to such a
nicely, that when the Inspector
(all three of them have their
hands covered with white
gloves,) rub their hands on any
part of the bed, lockers, chairs,
window cases or frames, must
not show any soil. The floors
are all solid cement, no cracks;

Judgement. The first Saturday
of each month is obliged to
have all clothing spread on his
bed, accompanied by a slip fur
nished by the quartermaster,
showing everything charged to
him, must all be visible or ac-
counted for. Friday night we
are all furnished with clean
sheets and pillow case, to put
on in the morning. All bed
ding on the one side of the
room are put on the porch for
two or three hours airing, Fri
day morning the opposite side
put out theirs. The ventilf-

Through the center of the ward
dropping from the ceiling about
Ia inches and six foot wide
with openings covered ',v fire
wire cloth, about z or 8 inches
sqvare and six foot apart is
forced both hot and cold air.
Two large fans in the basement
driven by electricity force the
air all through the building,
and at the same time operate a
fan which drove the air out of
the room through cylinders
about IL or Ia inches in height
and width located under the
cots, so we are supplied con-
stantly with pure air as we'll as

fairly good brass band. This

The delegation from the Va

he has won so many matches
during the last ten years.

late ruling OF the supreme
court of Iowa il to the effect
that the city cNuncil must give

places of business were closed
today pending some action of
the city council. The saloon

the law. 1t is not exactly
known how long they will re-
main closed.

officially stated that Uncle
Sans soldiers should be per-

canteens. They state it will
curtail the sale of ardent spirits
to the soldiers, thereby reduc-

and preventing desertions.
This governmental recognition
of beer as a temperance drink
is widely understood. The
most delicious beer on the mar
ket today is Storz Blue Ribbon;
its presence in the home means
true temperance to the whole

tdSy Method of Killing Flies and
Mosquitoes.

Why be worried with flies and mos
qnitoes in your rooms when they can
be easily driven out and killed. An ex-
change gives the following simple
recipe;
1t is claimed that a little lavender
OF, sprinkled about the room through a
common atomizer will Danish the flies.
A little Of this oil rubbed on the hands
and face will keep flies at a distance,
where n is at work at a desk or other
sedentary business. A pastile for kill
ing not only mosquitoes, but flies and
other insects that may be lurking
o the room, is made by mixing one
part henzinc, n part baIsam Of tolu,
i've parts of charcoal, one and a half
parts common insect power and half a
part of saltpeter. Add sufficient water
to this mixture to knead into a stiff
paste, then roll the mixture into snita.
Die p~astiles and dry them. One of
these P~astiles will burn for some time
a room, giving a pleasant odor. and
fumes will kill all insects without
to ~ fuiture or drapcry. They I
he made at home, or the druggist
will prepare them.

WOOD PRODUCTION N GERMANY

Among all nations of the world Ger
many receives the credit Of being the
most thoroughly scientific. She does
with her limited natural resources what
younger nations will soon DO compelled
to do in self-protection; she conserves
them.
When our wood supplies, stored up
from 100 to 800 years, are within sight
OF their end, and sawmills that have
been moved from the white pine belt of
the north to the yellow pine belt Of the
south have been moved to tho Pacific
Coast for their last stand. then Ger
many's scientific forestry policy will re-
ceive better recognition.
We do not think Of moving a grist
mill about from one wheat field TO an.
other, "a the fields in turn became ex.
hausted. After one crop is harvested
another is coming on. SO it must be
with the sawmill and the crop of trees.
II 1t takes so years TO raise a tree Of a
given species, then one Rftioth Of the
forest may be cut each year. provided il
re'seeds or Is replanted and the saw
mill stays at the same place and tho
workmen live In their permanent snug
near by: the "lumbcr shantv"
will be a thing Of the past; raising trees
l business like raising wheat.
