SAYS REDUCTION in TARIFF
WOULD RUIN THE LEAD
MINING INDUSTRY

WASHINGTON, d. c., March
31.-Representativ Hamer of
Idaho, in his maiden speech be-
fore the house today, said:
IT hazard the prediction that If
the present tariff on lead ore be
reduced now, the industry of lead
and silver In the United States
from the Mexican to the Canadian
line will be destroyed.
Lead can be and is sold at 2
cents a pound at the mouths of
Mexican mines, and even at that
price, carries a profit.
The Tacoma times. [volume] (Tacoma, Wash.) 1903-1949, 1909-03-31

after all fixed charges are
paid, including transportation
Mexican lead can be delivered in
the New York market at 2k
cents a pound, and that price will
return a reasonable profit to the
producer. Add to this the pro-
posed tariff of " cents pound,
and you will see that Mexican lead
can be sold in our markets at A
cents a pound with attendant
profit, while it actually costs A 3
cents a pound to produce it in
Idaho"

MAY COMPROMISE

BY the Hon. Henry A. Cooper,
Representative from Wisconsin.

The insurgents fight will go on.
We could not stop it If we would.
What has come to be known as the
insurgent movement Is. a strong
movement to restore
Representative government. 1t is a
movement to give back power to
the peoples representatives which
has been usurped by few MEM
bers of the house. 1t is not the
expression of any personal opinion
or animosity. 1t does not find its
origin in any quarrel with any
particular man or men. 1t Is a
demand by the people Of the coun-
try that the legislative methods
bow to the popular demand.
I have always been opposed to
and I think that this is the next
thing which the people must take
up--I have been opposed to the
speakers holding membership on
the committee on rules. I am op-
posed also to lodging in the speak
er the power to name the member
ship of committees. So long as a
practical veto power is to be exer-
cised by committees-that is, so
long as legislation is to be killed
by non-action in committee, with
out debate or roll call in the house
the power to name committees
becomes an added veto power.
The right has been granted to
vote upon bills which reach the
calendar. But what about bills
which never reach the calendar?
That is the question which must
next be taken up. Many of these
matters may be handled by the
party as party matters. Probably
this question as to the speakers
membership on the rules commit
tee will soon present itself to the
party managers as question
which they will have to solve. As
a matter of self interest and self
preservation it will soon be immi-
nentA
Party regularity has suffered a
serious blow. When 81 republf-
can members of the house deal
openly with the democratic minor

of the house deal secretly with the

ularity' gets jolt. The people

Helping the Farmer.

In an important interview with Gift
ford Pinchot, the government forester,
and a member of the Country Life
Commission, recently appointed by Mr..
Roosevelt, given to Edward 1. Far
rington, the following points are elab-
Grated:
The things which the Country Life
Commission desires to do, above all
else, Is to make. the fact plain that
there is a tremendous problem before
the American farmer to-day.
The things which must be secured
for the farmer are better farming ma
terials, better business and a better
living. The commission is concerned
with the two latter.
Everything which has to do with
making farm life efficient and pleas
ant will receive particular attention
for this is one of the most important
of all agricultural problems.
The commission will make no at
tempt to impose anything on the farm
er, to dictate to him, or to carry pa
ternalism to an Objectionable degree
The facts are to be assembled in a:
complete a form as possible and placed
before the farmer in logical order.

Sailing Down Meat.

Curing meat for future consumption
is one of the annual jobs on the farm.
In some sections of the country, says
the Journal of Agriculture, the prob
lem of sailing down meat is a serious
one because of the heat. In sections
of the South there are winters when
there is very little cold weather and
it is not until late that hogs may be
slaughtered. Here is recipe which is
said to be a good one: For 1000
pounds of meat take ten quarts of salt
peter, pound of pepper and 2 pounds
Of yellow sugar. Mix well, put in a
tub or some suitable vessel, and then
apply the mixture well to the meat.
This is said to be the most success
full method of sailing meat there is,
both from a standpoint Of purity and
HaVOr.

Feeding Meal. Wet or Dry.

Many Of our farmers seem to hold
the opinion that feeding meal wet to
their COWS will bring better results
than when fed dry. One old farmer
makes the remark, "how can the COW
get any goodness out of pan Of dry
meal?' yet Notwithstanding the fact
that so many dairymen hold to the
practice of feeding the meal wet, the
experiments to date indicate that bet
ter results are obtained by feeding
It dry. Professor Jordan, Of the Maine
Experiment Station, fed a bunch of
calves corn and cob meal with long
hay in dry form, as against hay which
was run through a feed cutter, mois-
tened and sprinkled with corn and cob
meal. The results were in favor Of
the dry feeding The gain was great
err, and less feed was required for
100 pounds of gain. Professor Jordan
also conducted an experiment with two
herds of dairy cows, one herd was fed
dry feed, while the feed Of the other
was moistened. The greater yield Of
milk was obtained from the herd that
received the dry feed.

Feeding Milk Cows.

Milk contains water, fat, protein
(casein and curd), sugar and ash, and
these are all made from the constitu-
ents of the food. If sufficient protein,
fat and carbohydrates are not con-
tanned in the food given her, the COW
supplies this deficiency for time by
drawing on her own body, and gradu-
ally begins to shrink in quantity and
quality of milk, or both. The stingy
feeder cheats himself as well as the
COW. She may suffer from hunger
although she is full of swale and hay,
but she also becomes poor and does
not yield the milk and butter she
should Her milk glands are wond.
erful machine. but they cannot make
milk casein (curd) out Of the constitu-
ents in coarse unappetizing. indiges-
tibe swale hay or sawdust any more
than the farmer himself can make but
ter from skim milk. She must not
only have a generous supply of good
food, but it must contain sufficient
amounts of the nutrients needed fol
making milk Until this fact is IN
derstood and appreciated, successful
profitable dairying is out Of the ques
ton. Many forcible Illustrations of 1T
truthfulness have been furnished b,
