first one to greet him and as the
Roosevelt, after an absence of over
one year, steamed into Sydney harbor
under a brilliant sun and cloudless
sky the explorer and his ship were
sembled shipping.
At an early hour, when the Roose-
welt was still edging her way along
the Cape Breton coast, the steam
yacht Sheelah, owned by James Ross,
president of the Dominion Coal COM
pany, put to sea carrying Mrs. Peary,
her daughter. Miss Marie Peary; lit
tie Robert e. Peary. Jr., and party
of friends, all eager to meet the re-
turning explorer
The meeting between Commander
Peary and his wife took place some
ten miles north of Low Point, the en-.
trance to the harbor. AS the Shee
lah drew alongside the Roosevelt a
sailor on the yacht hailed the Arctic
ship. In reply Commander Peary
came to the rail and was greatly sur.
prised when he perceived his wife
and children waving their greetings
In reply the explorer waved his slouch
hat and called to them TO come or

TAFT TALK MISINTERPRETED
Administration Not Committed to
Plan for Central Bank.

Dublin, n H., Sept. 22.-In an in
terview here Secretary Of the Treas
ury MacVeagh made it plain that the
administration is not committed to
the plan of a central bank. President
Taft's passing allusion to the subject
in his speech last week at Boston has
been misinterpreted, he said Certain
newspapers and apparently some
bankers have jumped to the conclu'
sion that an administration bank bill
was to be introduced and pushed in
the coming session of congress. Moth
ing of the kind is to be looked for
The administration feels that the sub
| ject is too complicated and difficult tc
admit of headlong treatment. A lone
| and wide discussion, it is asserted, is
necessary, for there are many details
which must be threshed out before
| anything like agreement can bt
| reached.

Governor Johnson at the Seattle ex

"The death of Governor Johnson is

Atlanta, Ga, Sept. 22.-"Governor
Johnson's death still further compli.
Gates the confusion of the Democ-
racy," said Clark How ell, member of
the national Democratic executive
committee from Georgia. Had he
lived he would in all probability have
been the presidential nominee next
time. With many elements of unusual
strength, chief among which was his
hold on the Middle West, he might
have united the party. His death is
to be deeply deplored, both from the
party and the broader standpoint"

LAST HOURS PEACEFUL

Their Attentions to Him, Says Fare

at st. Peter, MINI.

st. Paul, Sept. 22.-The death of
Governor John A. Johnson has cast
deep gloom over the entire state ana
In this city, where he was well known,
expressions of personal sorrow we're
heard on every hand. To the little
group of mourners at Rochester
sympathy of more than statewide in
terest goes out, for the dead governor
had become prominent figure in the
nations life. He was continually
growing in prominence nationally at
the time of his death and sympathy
and regret are widefelt and sincere.
After battling against death with
determined resistance for almost a
week. Governor Johnson's life had a
peaceful ending. Grouped about his
bedside when the end came were Mrs.
Johnson, Miss Sullivan, her personal
friend; the attending physician and
two nurses. The last thing Governor
Johnson did before lapsing into a
comatose condition one and a half
half hours before his death was to
take his wife affectionately by the
hand and weakly whisper: WELL
Nora, / made a good fight, but l guess
I've got to CO." Then as the last
CLEAN of intelligence began to flicker
he pressed her hand gently to his
cheek, a parting caress as he prepared
to obey the divine will.
Not Told of Approaching End.
Governor Johnson was not notified
of his approaching death, but it was
very slowly borne to him and there
seemed to be a mutual understanding
of the situation without a word hav-
ing been said on either side, except
those addressed to Mrs. Johnson.
About two hours before he became
unconscious Governor Johnson said:
81 want to thank every one in this
room and especially Dr. William
Mayo, for what you have done for
me-"
He then added to DR.. William Mayo,
personally:
Doctor, l don't think there is a
single person on earth who could have
done so much for me as you have
done"
Then the governor shook hands with
all of them 1t was the final leave
taking of Minnesota's beloved gov
ernor to his dearest personal friends

der her aflliction.
The body of Governor Johnson was
brought TO st. Paul on a special train
and taken to the state capitol, where
It will lie in state. The funeral will
be held Thursday afternoon at St
Peter and the services will be held II

Johnson will be buried beside his
mother.

III q few days new milk can be safely sub
stituted by warm skim milk. .
There appetites will increase wonderfully

than the milk, and then a substitute must
be provided. Wheat middlings soaked in
water is the best substitute L have ever
used. Add the milk at hand when fed.
so the whole will not sour. A little OF the
right kind of feed will give the little fell
low a good healthy start and this is halr
the battle in growing pigs successfully-
Always look out that you feed no more
than is eaten up clean and do not add so
much water that the pig has to drink
twice as much as he naturally would in
order to get sufficient feed. Make the sion
thicker and then let him drink as m,,ch

ALFALFA PASTURE.

Alfalfa should never be pastured during
the first or second season of it's growth.
Even an old field of alfalfa should be
grazed rather sparingly If a uniform stand
is to be maintained. The last crop of al
falfa is OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES off, as other
grazing is oftensSAkort in the autumn.
Care hou be taken not to pasture too
closely in the late autumn, as the plants
should be allowed to go into the winter
with sorne growth upon the crowns. This
will enable them to Withstand the winter
better and also to store up reserve food
material for a vigorous early growth the
following spring. The evil effects of the
trampling of the stock while grazing can
be overcome by disking to loosen up the
compacted ground.
All kinds of live stock may be pastured
upon alfalfa. Horses and sheep are more
destructive to the stand of alfalfa than
are cattle. as they Craze more closely.
Hogs are apt to injure the stand by root
ing unless their noses are ringed. The
utilization of alfalfa for hog pasture is
in the aggregate probably the most ex-
%tensive, as nearly every farmer through
out the alfalfa regions makes a practice
OF this chiefly because it proves u very
profitable method of utilizing the crop.
An average field OF alfalfa will support,
continuously during the growing season
about ten hogs to the acre and enable
them to make good gains, especially IL
a small quantity of grain is feed in addi-
ton. The usual custom is to allow one
pound of grain a day for every 100 pounds
live weight of the hogs.
The principal drawback to the pastur-
ing Of cattle n sheep on alfalfa Is their
tendency to bloat. This danger can, how
ever, be reduced to a minimum by proper
precautions in not allowing the cattle to
go onto the pasture with empty stomachs.
especially when the alfalfa is wet.
When animals become bloated several
| remedies are usually at hand for the mar
ady. A large bit an inch in diameter
may be tied in the mouth. a piece of
rubber tubing may be passed through the
mouth to the first stomach, or as a last
resort the animal may be tapped to al
low the escape of the gas. For this pur-
pose a trochar is best, but in the absence
of this instrument a small bladed knife
ma be used to make the incision about.
six inches in front of and slightly below
the left hip bone. A straw or quill may
be used to permit the escape OF gas.-Bul-
letin No. 339, U. S. Dept. of Agriculture.
