. your letter of the 29 ultimo and have
 read It In connection with your prevl- ous letters inclosing quotations from the Indianapolis News, paper edited by Mir. Deavan Smith. As MT. Smith certainly knew that all the statements he made were false, both as to this Panama matter and as to the other matters of which you enclose me clip pings and inasmuch. therefore, as the exposure of the falsity will not affect his future statements, I am not very clear what good will result from such exposure. But inasmuch as you evl- dently earnestly desire some answer to be made, and inasmuch as you say that some reputable people appear to believe

the falsehoods of the News and Mir Smith, and lnasmuch as you seem to think that his fasehoods as regards the Panama matter are the most prom inent, l will answer them.
 All Documents Open for Inspection.
 The News states in one of it's issues that probably some of the documents dealing with the matter have been de- stroyed, This is false Not one has been destroyed. It states that the last documents were sent over in June of this year the object of this particular falsehood being, apparently to con meet the matter in some way with the nomination of Mir. Taft As matter of fact, the last papers that we have received of any kind were sent over to us in May of 1904, and they have been accessible to every human being who cared to look at them ever since, and are accessible now. Any reputable man within or without congress, re- publican or democrat. has now and always has had the opportunity to eX- anime any of these documents. You quote the News as stating that the people have no official knowledge con corning the Panama canal deal The fact is that the people have had tho most minute official knowledge that every important step in the trans action and every important document have been made public In communica- tions to congress and through the dai- ly press and the whole matter has been threshed over In all its details again and again and again. The News gives currency to the charge that the United States bought from American citizens for S4O,0O0,OO0, property that cost these citizens only s12,000 000. The statement is false. The United States did not pay cent of the s40,- i 100000 to any American citizen. The News says that there is no doubt that the government paid S40,000,00O for the property. and continues-'b whc got the money? We are not to know The administration and Mir. Taft dc not think 1t right that the people should know

kind. sort or description at any time or under any circumstances with the Panama matter Neither did Mir, Charles Taft The News says that Mir Taft was a member of the syndicate. So far ns 1 know there was no syndi- cate, there certainly was no syndicate in the United States that to my knowl- edge had any dealings with the gov ernnent directly or indirectly; and in- as much as there was no syndicate Nil. Taft naturally could not belong to It. The News demands that Mir Taft ap- peal to the evidence by which |, means what it calls the records that is the mass of papers which are stored in the war department, save such as, because of their technical character and their usefulness In the current work of the canal, it has been found advisable to send to the isthmus. All of these documents that possessed any l importance as Illustrating any feature of the transaction have already been made public
 Reputable Man Can See Papers.
 There remains a great mass of docu- ments of little or no importance which the administration is willing to have 1 published, but which, because of their mass and pointlessness, nobody has ever cared to publlsh Any reputable man can have full access to those docu mcnts, If you or Mir. Swift or Mir Booth Harrington or Mir George Ade-- in short, if any reputable man will come on here, he shall have free ac- cess to the documents and can look over everything for himself. Congress can have them all printed If it wishes; but no congressman has ever so far in. timated any desire that this should bc done; l suppose because to print sucl a mass Of documents would be great expense, and moreover an entirely use. less expense, unless, which is not tho case, there was some object in printing them

hood. Whether they are paid by out- sldors to say what Is false, or whether their profit comes from the circula- tion of the fasehoods Is a matter of small consequence. It is utterly im- possible to attempt to answer all of their falsehoods. When any given falsehood is exposed they simply re- peat 1t and circulate another If they were mistakenin the fact If they pos sessed in their makeup any shred of honesty, 1t would be worth while to set them right, But there Is no ques- ton at all as to any mistake or mis- understanding on their part They state what they either know to be un- true or could by the slightest Inquiry find out to be untrue.

Get 1t Done, and Let lem Yell.

I doubt If they themselves remem- Der their own fasehoods for more than very brief period and doubt stilt more whether anybody else does un- der these circumstance 1t seems hardly worth while to single out for special mention one or two given falsehoods or enc particular paper, the moral stand ard of which Is as low as, but no low CT, than that of certain other papers. Of course now and then I am willing 10 denounce q given falsehood, as, for instance, as regards this case of the Indianapolis News, or the case l have quoted Of the New York Sun, simply because 1t appears, that some worthy people arc mlsled or puzzled by the dl- rect shamelessncss of the untruth But ordinarily l do not and cannot pay | heed to these falsehoods. If l did, I would not be able to do my work. My | plan has been to go ahead, to do the work, and t1 let these people and those | like them yell: and then to trust with abiding confidence to the good sense of the American people in the assured conviction that the yells will die out. the falsehoods be forgotten and the work remain.

Really This is Ludicrous.

Really this is so ludicrous as to having to answer 1t. The fact has been officially published again and again that the government paid $40- 000,000, and that 1t paid this $40,000,- 900 direct to tho French government, getting the receipt of the liquidator appointed by the French government to receive the same. The United States government has not the slight est knowledge as 10 the particular individuals among whom the French government distributed the sum. This was the business of the French gov ernment. The Here supposition that any American received from the French government 'rake-off' is too absurd to be discussed. It is an abominable falsehood, and 1t is a islander, not against the American government but against the French government.
 It's Scandalous; Infamous.
 The News continues, saying that the presidents brother-in-law is involved in the scandal, but he has nothing tc say The presidents brother-in-laN was involved in no scandal, MT Della van Smith and the other people whc repeated this falsehood lied about the presidents brother-in-law; but why tho l fact that Mir Smith lied should be helt to involve Mir Robinson in scandal is difficult to understand The scanda affects no one but Mir smith; and hi' conduct has been not merely scan dalous, but infamous MT Robinsol had not the slightest connection of any

pIshonoring an Honorable Chilling.

Therefore, as far as l am concern- ed, 1 would rather make no answer whatever in the case. But l have much confidence in your judgment, and if you feel that these men ought to be exposed, why you are welcome to publish this letter There is no higher or more honorable calling than that of the men connected with an upright. fearless and truthful news paper; no calling In which a man can render greater service to his fellow countrymen, The best and ablest edi- tors and writers in the daily press render a service to the community which can hardly be paralleed by the service rendered by the best and abest of the men in public life, or of the mon in business. But tho converse of this proposition Is also true The most corrupt flnanciers, the most cor rupt politicians, are no greater mem ace to this country than the newspa- per men of the type have above de- scribed Whether they belong to q | yellow press or to tho purchased press. whatever may be the stImulat. ing cause of their slanderous men. dacity, and whatever the cloak It ma, wear, matters but little.

Give the pigs a clean pen, with plen-
ty of water and shade.
Burn some cobs to a charcoal and
give the hogs some now and then. 1t
helps to keep them healthy.
When thoroughbred hogs are kept
for breeding purposes, they should be
given every chance for growth rather
than the production of fat.
Pull up some weeds and throw them
over into the pen once in awhile and
see how the pigs will hurry after them.
Weeds taste good to them In the spring.
The hog makes better gains on the
same grain feed than any of our do
nestle animals, but the hog cannot use
rough forage as well as cattle, horses
and sheep.
Light hogs for bacon are in good and
increasing demand. They make good
meat and are more healthy than the
excessively fat ones often seen on the
market
Pigs Intended for fattening should be
forced for growth early and later gives
foods rich In carbonaceOus elements
that will produce fat and fit them for
early market
Get the hogs to market when they
are properly fitteds When they get
heavy and do not eat so readily, they
are fitted. When they are fat and up
to a good weight, gain or weight Is put
on at an increased cost.
sow that has proved herself to be
} good breeder should not be fattened
and sold so long as her reproductive
powers are maintained.
Old sows should not be kept over
unless there is a good chance of get
ting a good litter of pigs. They are
usually good breeders until up to five
or six years old.
When you butcher the hogs at home
} be clean about 1t. Do not leave any
S thing about the yard to decay anc
2 breed disease.
If YOU are troubled with lice on the
hogs. use kerosene emulsion. Spray
the hogs and spray the pen.
AS soon as the grass starts the pigi
should be put in the pasture. Hog

Properly fed and cared for. there are
no better winter layers than the Light
Brahma pullets or yearling hens. They
lay large egg Of rich brown color.
A pullet belonging to the writer. says
Michael X. Boyer of Farm Journal,
laid 100 eggs from Jan. l to June /,
and In her second season laid eighty
eggs In that time. For the entire year
as pullet she laid fully 200 eggs. The
exact amount we do not have, as she
did not lay in trap nest the entire
year.
At eight to ten weeks of age Brah
mas make choice broilers Weighing o
pound and quarter to pound and 9
half each. At four to five months OF
age they are first class roasting fowls.

We are pleased to notice that many
writer's are coming back to the old
Cochins and mentioning them as most
valuable for producing market poultry,
says the Feather. One writer states
that he yet fosters several hundred OF
the old Yellow Cochins of the kind
that lay so many eggs. Another states
that he uses Partridge Cochins exclu-
sively for the production of winter
eggs and dressed poultry for market,
always caponizing the cockerels and
gaining good profit from their sale
in January. Many persons are pleased
to admit the Cochin fowls as valuable
for market producing stock. There
was time when the Cochins stood at
the head of the list for market poultry
and eggs. Too many feathers and toe
much cultivation along nonutility lines
made a change in them.

Good Mash Mixtures.

There are several good mixtures for
mashes. One is about equal parts of
cornmeal and wheat bran with small
amount of flour middlings. The exact
proportion must be determined by the
quality of the different ingredients.
The object is to get fairly rich mash
that is not doughty. Neither do you
want one that is too light. Another
fairly good mash is what is known as
ground provender, which is oats and
corn ground together. All mashes
should be sailed.
