The next time you run up against
a contrary hok that refuses to
go through a chute into the wagon,
try the following plan: Clap a feed
basket over his Nhedd, and he will
back anywhere you want him to go.
BY little maneuveTing you can have

It,
Cows That are allowed to go dry
too long never attain their best.
Provide some device for supplying
water In the stable for the cows.
The cows that have the most COM
fort are the ones THAT give the owner
the most profit.
Don't forget the calves and yearl-
ings. Don't leave them out in the
cold nights until they are pinched
and haggard.
There is no 'surer cause Of scours
than dirty feed pals. Be scrupulous-
ly clean as to pals, troughs and the
food used in feeding young calves. It
will save the trouble of carrying
calves through.
More than one horse has been ruin
ed for life by being made to pull hard
when young.
Go down TO the stable before bed
time and see that everything is all
right with the horses, You may save
a good horse by just that little thing.

Match your farm horses. They
should be alike in size and shape. but
by far the most important part is that
they should possess like character

TO GET BACK HIS NERVE
NIotorman on an Electric Car Is
Taking a Lay Of.

Chicago, Jan. 2s.-Four persons
having been killed beneath the
wheels of electric cars of which he
was motorman and two women hav-
ing been manned for life, L. A. Brod-
way is now taking a voluntary rest
''to recover his nerve
Within another week he expects to
be at work again and says he trusts
his car will never kill another per-
son. He is not particularly sure of
such luck, as he says people seem
to be taking greater chances with
electric cars every day.
In none of the accidents in which
his car has figured has Broadway been
censured by the coroner.
He is an employe of the Chicago &
Milwaukee electric line.
"a motorman in charge of these
new high-power electric cars" he
says, "has a nerve-racking job all the
time I have worked on steam roads
and I would rather take an express
run at seventy-five miles an hour
with a locomotive than try to keep
the express schedule of the electrics.
You often have to make % miles an
hour.
"People generally take all kinds of
completely disregard the fact that the
electrics often are running faster
than steam cars. They jump in front
of electric cars where they would give
a steam train a wide berth"

TAKE OUT SCALAWAGS.
Scientists Advocate Methods of Inn
proving the Human Race.

Chicago, Jan 28.-Extraordinary
experiments were related and radical
measures advocated last night at one
of the largest meetings of Chicago
physicians in the history of the city
for the discussion of the problems of
heredity.
Dr. Eugene Davenport of the
University of Illinois, created a great
sensation when he advocated the
application of the fundamental prin-
ciples of Eugenics for improvement
of the human race. His treatment of
the subject was based not only on the
paper read to the meeting but also
on his own vast experience in meet
ing the practical problems of live
stock breeding.
His chief proposal was that all the
"culls'' or "scalawags'' of the human
race should be taken before the
courts, scientifically investigated, and,
if found unworthy, cOlonized and al
lowed to die off.
Scarcely less interesting was the
recital of DR.. W. l.. Tower who told
of experiments in intermarriage of
Anglo-Am orleans. and Irish-Amer-
leans with the Indians of southern
Mexico. He announced important
scientific deductions arrived at as a
result of comparing these with SINH
lar experiments with different
varieties of a certain small South
American beetle.
other men who have studied
heredity in pigeons, evening prim-
roses, guinea pigs, turtle doves, rab-
bits and rats showed the results of
their experiments.

Mr.. WARD RESPONSIBLE
Says He Is the Man That Submitted
the Panama Railway Deal.

New York, Jan. 2S.-Following a
statement yesterday issued in behalf
of William S. Harvey, who was men
toned in the recent speech of Con-
gresham Henry T. Rainey of Illinois,
as being connected with the Infamous
railroad deaP' on the Isthmus of Pan
anna, denying that Mr.. Harvey was in
any way interested in the matter, Ran
dolph G. Ward, a prominent civil en-
gineer identified with work on the
isthmus, comes forward with a letter in
which he refutes that part of MIR.
Rainey's speech referring to William
Nelson Cromwell and others. The let
ter says in part:
"As I am the individual who alone
and unassociated with any other per-
son or persons submitted to the gov
ernment of the Republic of Panama
the railroad proposition thus character
lied but which I am confident will
stand the test of competent and con-
scientious criticism, 1 take this oppor-
tunity of generating Mr.. Cromwell
and each and all of the other gentle
men named from any connection what
ever with such proposition and I un-
hesitatingly assume the entire respon-
sibility for having submitted it, and
challenge Representative Rainey to
submit a fairer proposition or one bet
ter calculated to promote the welfare of
the people of the Republic of Panama .

CALLS IT WAR MEASURE
Prof. Starr Discusses Building of the
Panama Canal.

Chicago, Jan. 2S-"If the United

only legitimate reason for the work. and
that reason is that it is undertaken

ADDRESS last night attacking the gov

Panama canal policy. He declared that
the cana! would never better the COM

would always be a burden.

Prof. Starr called the proposed Pan
American railroad a Utopian dream
which never could be realized. He as
serted that railroad from Alaska to

GAS AT ENIPORIA.
Business Men of That Town Are Given
an Exhibit.

Emporia, Jan. 28.-G. w. Shaw, the
natural gas man, took q, crowd of busi-
ness men and gave a demonstration
of the gas pressure. The gas showed
a pressure of efghty-five pounds. This
is more than fifteen times the pressure
that will be required to supply Emporia
with gas. The pressure was turned on
full and the roar was deafening. Moth
ing could be heard in the vicinity but
the noise of the gas.
No definite promises can be made as
to when the gas will be turned into the
city mains. The city company wants
to have everything in readiness before
the gas is turned in, in order that it
will not have to be turned off for any
small repairs. 1t is planning a big
demonstration of the gas pressure some
night previous to the admission Of the
gas to the mains About all that can
be said is that gas will be supplied to
all houses west of Commercial street
