FRIDAY, MARCH 6, 1908.
Perfect self-control.

NAAISU hI@AA
Again, has Harrison county demon
strated the fact that her people are
law.abiding and have absolute CON
fdence in the law. Again, have the
residents of this county shown the
world that they have perfect control
Of their tempers, their passions, their
prejudices.
The citizens of the large cities of
the country, in truth, Of all sections
OF the country watched curlously the
outcome of the murderer Johnson in
cident. Rush orders from all the
leading news gathering bureaus and
newspapers over wide scope OF
country we're received here In pro-
fusion. All seemed eager to learn
all about this extraordinary case in
criminal history and every narrative
dispatched commanded prominent
positions in the big newspapers.
Yet with it all, when the public
mind was directed to mob violence
expecting 1t at any moment, the proud
old county of Harrison, though ag-
gravated to the extreme maintained
a respect for law and order quite un-
usual iRSmost localities under similar
circumstances, to the credit of her
credit.
Reference is made to the extraor-
binary occurrence as aggravated be-
cause of the fact that not only MUIR
der had been committed-a woman,
though colored, shot down in cold
blood-but also the murdered defied
the officers of the law and shot and
wounded some of those who had
either volunteered or were deputlzed
to aid In bringing about the laws en-
forCement in this particular case.
And still more aggravated one may
properly say was the case owing to
the desperation of the murderer,
whose regard for human life to pro-
tect himself from arrest for few
hours caused him to weigh so light
ly the lives of sworn officers of the
law, who were there to afford him
protection upon his arrest, after eG-
fecting his capture, that he would
have balanced the scales in his favor,
though only temporary he knew III
to be.
Excited to the extreme by the
murderous acts of one who had sud
denly been transformed into an out
law, desperate, than whom the
country has produced none worse,
thousands Of people awaited his cap
ture and delivery to the county pris-
on. Yet, with the throngs surglng
around the jail, Sheriff Flanagan and
his deputies and aids had no occasion
for alarm as there was no sign OF
-
mob vengeance, Even on the scene
Of the capture, after enduring hard
ships and mourning risks Of death,
the men gathered there did not mani
fest the Iynchlng spirit. Instead,
the sole purpose and desire appeared
to be, to effect his capture either by
strategy or surrender and they sue
ceeded admirably after due diligence
and much bravery.
Proudly may the Telegram assert
that there is not single feature of
the case which does not elicit praise
and Congratulation for Sheriff Flani-
gan, all those who co-oDerated with
him and the multitude of people on

Last year the opposition met in star
chamber meeting with a very few
gathered together and named a city
ticket without consulting the rank
and file or any one but themselves of
their party. From what has already
happened this year, one is more lu-
clined than ever to believe that an
old dog can not be taught new
tricks.

Detecting Disease in Horses.

An irregular pulse in horse is a
strong symptom of grave disease. In
a healthy horse the pulse beats 30 to
SO per minute, but 40 per minute may
not denote disease in some horses. To
take the pulse place the finger below
the jaws holding the watch in the left
hand, and count the beats. A rise Of
temperature above 100 degrees denotes
that something is wrong. To take the
temperature use a thermometer insert
ed in the rectum. By practice, high
temperature can be easily detected by
inserting the hand in the mouth of the
animal. Cold legs and cold ears and
cold sweat are bad symptoms. Difficult
and quick breathing indicate lung
trouble, and snoring" is caused by dis
ease of the brain. A rough coat is a
bad symptom, denoting indigestion.
Fever in a horse is indicated by dull
ness, quick pulse, high temperature,
extended and infamed nostrils and us
ually great desire for water.

While there are slight individual
differences in digestive efficiency
among cows, extensive experiments
have shown that these are insufficient
to account for the widely variable re-
turns made by similar cows from like
quantities of the same kind of food
The results obtained in tests Of this
kind are emphatic. 1t has been
shown that, of t,co cows of apparently
the same merit, from superficial exam
ination one may return three times as
much as the other from a given
amount of similar foods. They digest
ed their food equally well. 1t is a
well known fact that there are indi-
vidual likes and dislikes among cows,
which necessitates an intimate knowl-
edge of each cow If best results are to
follow. Occasionally a cow will make
her best performance upon a ration
not suited to the other members oil
the herd. These matters are of con
tinual interest to the dairymen, wht
should safeguard himself at all times
by keeping at least approximate rec
ords of food consumed and produc
yielded by each observation-disclosures

Homemade Barometer.

Those who love experimentation may
try the following method Of making a
cheap barometer, as practiced In
France: Take grams of pulverized
camphor, 4 grams of pulverized nitrate
of potassium, 2 grams of pulverized
nitrate of ammonia and dissolve In 60
grams of alcohol. Put the whole In a
long, slender bottle, closed at the top
with a piece of bladder containing a
pinhole to admit the air. When rain is
coming the solid particles will tend
gradually to mount, little star crystals
forming in the liquid, which otherwise
remains clear; If high winds are APP
preaching, the liquid will become thick
es If fermenting, while film of solid
particles forms on the surface; during
fair weather the liquid will remain
clear and the solid particles will rest
at the bottom

whiskey for Lame Back.

The increased use of whiskey for
lame back rheumatism is causing con,
siderable Discussion among the medical
fraternity. 1t is an almost infaliible
cure when mixed with certain other in
gradients and taken properly. The fol
lowing formula is effective: "To one
half pint of good whiskey add one
ounce of Syrup Sarsaparilla Compound

meal and before retiring.

proot From Dairy Products.

The Maryland Experiment Station
has been making tests as to profits
in selling dairy products, as milk, cream
and butter This test shows that cream
is one of the most profitable forms OF
sale, when 90 per cent cream can be
sold at 90 cents gallon. and even at
this low price returns 2314 cents per
pound for the butter in the milk, be-
sides leaving the skimmilk for use on
the farm. OF course, cream can be us
ually sold for more than 30 cents per
gallon 1t appears that milk shipping
Is ordinarily more profitable than but
ter. Thus - cents per gallon for 80
per cent milk is equal to 2312 cents pei

Dairxing and Farming.

Butter has market value of $50
ton, and it removes less than so cents
worth of fertilizer from the soil. On
the other hand, a ton of wheat has
market value of 500 and removes $3.50
of fertilizer from the soil. Anyone can
see by this that dairying is worth a
good deal more to new country than
the growing Of wheat if the value Of
keeping up the fertility of the soil is
fully appreciated.-Field and Farm.

which, of course, includes the much
