Few things are more displeasing to a
practical farmer than to see lot of
heterogeneous pigs following an old
scrub SOW. They are very unsatisfac-
tory to the feed lot and Improbable
to the farmer. There is no excuse for
keeping scrub sows. The brood sow
should be large. roomy and stand we'll
on her toes. Her shoulders should be
smooth and deep, back wide and slight
ly arched. There should be ample room
for heart and lungs provided by large
ana deep chest, well sprung ribs and
straight, deep sides; a deep, roomy
body from end to end. A good depth
of chest and abdomen are especially i'm

Bishop Grafton Says Sabbath Recre-
alton Is Matter OF Conscience.
Replying to an attack on Sunday base
ball by Rev. H. c. Miller of the First
Baptist church of Fond du Lac, Bishop
Grafton in a statement declared that all
Sunday recreation is a matter of indiyid-
ual conscience and that prohibiting Sun
day amusements would be wrong. He
said: Whether any recreation on Sunday
is allowable must depend upon the indi-
vidual conscience. If recreation interferes
with his primal duty to God. then it
ought to be given up, and while a num-
Der of devout Christians would abstain
from the recreation named, there are 9th
ers who look at baseball games or attend
free concert at the park, which is not
harmful to their spiritual life, they having
done their duty by attending in the morn
ing the divine worship prescribed by
Christ, Sunday is a day of devotion, rest
and recreation. While the chruch forbids
all servile work that can be avoided it
does not interfere with any recreation
that does not interfere with a Christians
devotional duty"

The Presidents anger is by way of

conclude that it is an ordinary thing

Recfprocal MONOPOLY.

What is Republican reciprocity?
James G. Blaine. claiming It as a great
modern invention. defined it as We
hicle of international harmony and
geniality. distributing the blessings Of
increasing friendship, love and peace.
Under its operations, as soon as we de
tected in another country signs of in
creasing love for us We were to recipro-
cate. If they allowed us TO make more
money in their country we were to in
vite them to make more in ours. We
were to sign a reciprocity treaty to
that effect, and the effect of the treaty
would be friendship, love, peace and
more money for all concerned. growing
more and more reciprocal throughout
the world.
AS instead of this we have to spend
more and more money every year In
getting ready fer war, there must have
been great mistake somewhere. There
was. 1t began ut the beginning. and 1t
has continued from the beginning until
Thursday morning, Aug. 20. 1908, when
Joseph G.. Cannon, Speaker Of the
House of Representatives, explained
through the st. Louis Globe Democrat
what Republican reciprocity Is to be
henceforth:
The Republican party" he says,
pledges itself" (tn the Chicago plat
form, which he is explaining) Ito ar

any foreign country shall discriminate

ONE EMPLOYE rs KILLED.
Supt. F. Il. Beers Punctured from
Head to Foot in Explosion.

Head to Foot in Explosion.
One man was killed and the general
superintendent injured in an explosion in
the plant of the Atlantic Dynamite Com
pany, six miles from Ashland. Twenty
three hundred pounds of dynamite blew
up. D. r. Weber, employed in the neu-
Trailing plant. was blown to pieces. The
general superintendent, S. T. Beers, was
taken to Ashland on>a special train with
a compound fracture of his leg. His head
was cut and a piece was torn out of his
leg, rendering him insensble for time.
The explosion broke his glasses and the
glass cut his face. Beers has been super
intendent of the plant for year, coming
from Emporium, Pa. He was making his
daily inspection of the plant when neu-
Trailing house No. 2 blew up. He was
long distance from the house, but
liquid dynamite mixture was flowing in
gutter and an explosion followed. Beers
weighs $50 pounds. but the explosion
picked him up and threw him over 100
feet. Doctors fear lockjaw. He is liter
ally punctured from head to foot.

Some Of the achievements OF that re-
markable horticulturist, Mr.. Luther
Burbank, in Southern California, seem
to have been riyaled in England by a
Lancashire farmer 1t is said that on
Cartons seed grown near Warrington
a single oat plant surpasses by several
hundred cereals any plant ever grown
in the world. 1t is the product of twen-
ty-seven years practice of process
called accelerated evolution" and has
been obtained by crossing a highly de-
veloped oat with certain varieties OF
wild oats which have an incalculable
capacity for generating seeds.
By these means the Lancashire farm
err obtains a yield of 100 bushels an
acre, something over twice what is con-
sidered a good yield in other parts of
the country. So practical has the pro-
cess been found that in thirty years the
yield OF some crops has been completely
doubled, and it may reasonably be ex-
pected that q similar increase will take
place within the next thirty years.
