The Great Has Fallen!

How strange the reading in
the newspapers of the day in
which accounts are given of the
reply of Hoa. Walter |. Smith,
OF the 9th Congressional district
Of Iowa to the message of the
President of the United States!
1t is said his remarks were re-
ceived with cheers by the mem
bers of the House Of Represn-
tatives! Even Benjamin Ryan
Tillman, U. S. Senator, embol-
dened by the remarks of the
loyal member Of the Oh district
from Iowa, also replies to Pres
ident Roosevelt! To thus speak
against the Republican Idol is
treason, and if such speech had
been uttered twelve month ago,
would have been received with
condemnation not applause.
Roosevelt is now a dead lion,
not a living President in power.
We are not interested in this
family quarrel, bat merely re.
fer to the subject to show the
difference between the man in
power and one just going out of
power, in fact we rather enjoy
the row. d. M. H.

dent of a recently formed in

for the determination of rats,
declared that every rat in the

at least 2 cents a day for it's
keep. In England a rat costs
from half a cent to 5 cents
daily. The British India rat is
the most expensive rodent of
them all for there each of the
innumerable swarning millions
of the pests consume on an
average 3 cents daily. If you
add to the cost of the board and
lodgings of rats the expense Of
maintaining quarantine opera

ing the diseases spread by them
the average specimen of the
rodent tribe preying on civiliz-
ed nations may be said to cost
US from Z to 10 cents a day.

The poultry short course adj
journed to the poultry farm on
Saturday where demonstrations
in killing and dressing poultry
were given by Mr.. Il. L. Ceranck
of Audubon, Iowa, who is an
expert picker, having picked
and dressed as high as 300 fowls
per day. His highest record
for one hour is AZ. He demon
strated the English method of
killing fowls by dislocating the
neck, the French method of
sticking in the mouth, and the
French method in which the
fowl is struck from the outside
of the head. This latter method
is considered preferable since
the blood can be kept from
staining the feathers. Poultry
raisers are taking great inter-
est in this course and express
themselves as very we'll pleased
with the equipment of the poul-
try farm and the way in which
the work is being conducted
there. ~
