TIFF NEW TARIFF BILL

Persons in pursuit Of a liberal
education, with desire to improve
the mind and broaden the scope OF
their outlook on life, will miss a
good deal IL they don't read the
new tariff bill. It's full of sur
prises. For instance, casual glance
at the schedules will disclose such
facts as these: Dividivi is on the
free list. dragons blood is likewise
free, benxzaldehyde. benzidin and
toldin are among the necessities Of
lite that escape without tax, and
as Tor ccrium, resorcin and cuculus
indicus. they also avoid the imposi-
ton OF a tariff. This, however, is
not all. II will be found on look
ing into the bill with care that

vises the reader that no duty shall

Goa or orleans and all the extracts
thereof. Then there is paragraph
$50. II provides that myrobolans
shall be on the free list. No doubt
this will meet with much opposi.

Be TRUE TO your TOWN

Some towns are better than 9th
ers. There is reason for this and
If close observance is made the
reason Is not difficult to discover.
Go into any town that enjoys the
name OF being q good town and
there will you find the people loyal
TO the town in which they live.
Without this loyalty to all the
local interests the instances are
few indeed when a place may be
considered good town, and for
tunatc is the town or city in which
there is such spirit Of loyalty to
home interests. for such BODIES we'll
for the future.
Loyalty 10 q town means not
only good word for It as occa.
sion may arise. but personal pat
ronage OF every local enterprise,
whether public or private. Good
schools. churches and other public |
institutions go long way toward |
establishing good reputation and
without such no town may expect
ever to be considered thrifty, enter
prising and progressive. In order
to possess the best public institu-
tions they must be supported in
every detail and made the best pos.
sible to be had. In order that they
may result |, is absolutely necessary
that local private enterprises be
prosperous through the patronage
OF home people.
Whether it be the local mer-
chant. professional man, mechanic,
laborer. or Of whatsoever calling,
when the services Of such are in
demand to supply ones needs 1t is
the local representative Of any bust
ness or calling that should be call !
ed upon first to supply the demand. =
In every town the various inter
ests are dependent largely upon
each other and while the success of u
all is not always to be expected II
those towns in which there exists n
a spirit OF loyalty to home insti- &C
tutions and home enterprises are ~
always found to be the most thrifty p'
and progressive. 1t is such a spirit OF
hat builds cities, whereas without
I, graveyard towns exist. The
great business interests of every
city know the advantages
o be derived from patronage Of
'ome enterprise ana on every pos
ible occasion endeavor to foster
nd keep alive the idea. If it is
ecessary to create and foster the
iea OF home patronage in great
Metropolis how much more so is il
eeessary for the people of the
mailer town and the newer com. M
iunity to stand firmly together, Oh
DING whatever is possible each for ~
ne others success. - Grangeville io'

Streaky or notified butter may be

to the working Of the butter. The salt
Is so evenly difrused in the finest kind
Of butter that. as is shown by micro
scope. every grain is surrounded by .
film OF clear and transparent brine
which points out the necessity of avoid
ing the overworking Of the butter be
fore the salt is added. In the firSt

In the extreme south. doubtless be
cause Of their origin in the rigorous
climate OF the Shetland Islands. This
is true only with reference to their
breeding. for the Shetland pony is
true cosmopolitan. at home In al lands
and In all citmes. and IS perhaps nm.
equaled by any other animal in points
Of hardness and endurance. In de-
Scribing Shetland's points an author
lily writes Us follows:
The head should not be too One.
and the eye should be prominent. the
ears Of good size and set wei forward.
The neck IS thick and crested high up.
SO that the impression is conveyed
that the crest extends right up TO the
ears. This gives appearances Of great
strength in the neck and, added to the
broad shoulders. enables the pony TO
draw great weights. The neck should
be of good length and the back. OF
course. short. The rib should be very
well sprung. any indication OF slab
sidedness aavoring Of the Icelander.
The quarters should be as round as
an apple and the tail set on moderately
high.
In short, the Shetland pony should
pass muster when judged by the
points Of horse. and there must be
no appearance Of delIcacy about him.

fault, and for the same reason nothing
