Wool Growers Attention.

AZ this time of the year the all i'm
.portant question of the new clip is
Being well considered and the follow
ing advice, appealing particularly to
Ohio growers but applicable to all
S given by one of the leading mer.
ehauts in Boston,
DO not tie your wool with sisal OF
binder Irvine. Manufacturers and
dealers in the East are up in arms
against this practice. The manufac-
aurer is more and more unwilling to
accept from the dealer wool where
che aeeces are tied with sisal, or bind
or Irvine, and the time has come when
abe buyer of wool must discriminate
against this kind of Irvine. In unity
ing the fleeces, it is impossible to re-
move this kind of Irvine without leav-
ing some of the fibres in the wool and
&his causes defect in the goods
when made, to the annoyance and ex-
Pense of the manufacturer, who has
10 put such pieces of goods into his
seconds. 1t leaves white or yellow
:xfreaks throughout the goods, as it
viii not take any dye. A farmer buy
ing 4 piece of wooden goods, either
hlack or colored, would hardly ac-
aept a piece streaked with white or
geiiow.
A farmer who insists on tying his
wool with binder twine will run the
risk of having it rejected altogether
Ssr be obliged to stand reduction of
several cents a pound. Wool should
gae tied with small. hard Irvine that
'wIl not rub off.
The tying up of tags, black wool,
" other substance in a fleece of
is a criminal offence if discov-
and punishable in the state of
by Imprisonment, or fine, or
wool, and wool of adjoining
is the best and strongest wool
world, but it is put up in the
careless manner of any wool
1ywhere.

Set tho Pace.

Young Mabel had habit when soup
was served at the table of mushing
her crackers or bread in it until 1T
was great mess. Her mother made
many efforts to have her correct this
strictly primeval habit.
One day there was to be company at
the table, and the mother said:
Now, Mabel. Mrs. Brown is to dine
with us tonight, and l want you to act
at the table just as nicely as she does.
Please don't 'mush' your SOUP"
Mabel promised faithfully to follow
the example set by Mrs. Brown, and
the dinner opened with every promise
Of a fine time. However, Mabel was
using a pair of very sharp eyes on
Mrs. Brown and in an instant blurted
forth at the top Of her voice:
"Oh, mamma, Mrs. Brown Is 'mush-
ingv May II"

ihoihas "A Eoison which is by adding
colloids-clay-and electrolytes to the
mass Of concrete, which give the uni
form flow desired and prevent segrega-
ton Of the gravel. Mr.. Larned is skep.
tical about the effectiveness Of these
methods after the cement comes to a
standstill. Edison's mixture is one
part cement to three Of sand and five
Of stone or gravel through half inch
sieve. The steel requirements will
be put in place when the molds are set
up. Larned admits that the forms are
entirely feasible, their total weight be-
ing 100000 pounds, and their estimated
cost is $4,000. Edison says these can
be erected in two days. Both the in.
vestigators doubt that the proposed
houses can be built in the time stated
by Mr.. Edison. Mr.. Wilson finds that
Edison has not yet proved that the
added clay will not delay the harden
ing Of the mass and cannot be certain
that the stone will flow uniformly.
Production of Cement.
The United States geological survey
has reports indicating that in 1907
there were 100000 barrels of cement
manufactured in this country.

GUARDS FOR
CABINET MEN
Threatening Letters Received by
Washington Officials Since
Anarchist Paper Barred.
SECRET SERVICE MEN ACTIVE

Special by United Press Wire:
Washington, Apr. 10:-The secret
service men, 1t became known today,
are guarding the cabinet officers from
threatened anarchist attacks follow
ing the recent barring from the mails
of the anarchist newspaper, LaQues-
tione Sooiale, of Paterson, N. j., by
Postmaster General Meyer.
Since the federal action all the
cabinet officers have received many
threatening letters and detectives
have been detailed to watch them day
and night.
The receipt of these letters is be-
lieved to have inspired President
Roosevelt to send to congress yester-
day the special message embodying a
letter sent to Attorney General Bona
parte in which strongs law against
the reds" are urged.
The presloe4t asss stricter immigra-
ton laws to bar anarchists effectually
and more rigid postal laws under
which all anarchistic literature, pub
lished here or abroad, may be excluded
from the mails. With the message he
transmitted a report by Attorney Gen
eral Bonaparte reviewing the legal
phases of the question.
The presidents message is as fol
lows.
~ herewith submit a letter from the
department Of justice which explains
itself. Under this opinion hold that
existing statutes give the president the
power to prohibit the postmaster gen
eral from being used as an instrument
in the commission of crime-that is, to
prohibit the use of the mails for advo-
cacy of murder, arson and treason, and
l shall act upon such construction.
"Unquestionable, however, there
should be further legislation by con
gress I'm this matter. When compared
with the suppression Of anarchy, every
other question sinks into insignifcance
The anarchist is the enemy of human
ity, the enemy of ali mankind, and his
is deeper degree of criminality than
any other.
mo immigrant is allowed to come tc
our shores If he is an anarchist, and nc
paper published here or abroad should
be permitted circulation in this coun
try If it propagates anarchistie opin-
ions"
The opinion of the attorney general
which the president transmits to con
gress, embraces a discussion of the
whole subject from many legal angles
His first conclusion is that an article
in question which advocates the use Of
arms and dynamite in annihilating po
lice and soldiers that anarchy may pre-
vail constitutes a .seditious libel" and
sis undoubtedly crime at common
law

Trenton, Apr. 10:-At 3 o'clock
this afternoon, or as soon thereafter
as the work can be completed, the
legislature will adjourn sine die. 1t
has been one of the most exciting
sessions that has been held in a long
time. None of the real important
bills were passed. but large num-
Der of minor measures have been
added to the statute books of the
state.
The usual scene as the closing
hour approached was witnessed here
today. There was big effort on the
part Of each legislator to get through
some pet measure that he had In
charge and there was no end of con-
fusion.
Public utilities was up to the SEN
ate again, but as that body is not
likely to act, the proposition will be
found among those not enacted into
laws when the legislature quits work.
The senate has passed a bill, without
rate-making powers, three times un-
der the championship of Leader Rob-
bins.
The house met this record yester-
day by passing for the third time the
Martin measure, which is practically
the same as the New York Hughes
laws and which gives the power to FIX
rates.
The regulars thought they had
enough votes to force the Robbins
measure, s. 337, through the house
yesterday afternoon, but the vote was
81 to 28 in favor of substituting the
Martin bill. On final passage the
Martin bill won, 40 to 10, on this rol
call:
