MILLER AND THE DOCTORS.

Representative Miller whose particu-
the levying of war upon the state board
of health is in danger of being classed
in public opinion as q common scold
and fit subject for the ducl<ing stool
Mr.. Miller appears to be carrying on Il
crusade upon physicians generally. one
that the people of the state will be
10th to assist him in. No doubt there
is much fault that may be found with
members of the profession and with
the board of health particularly; for it
is pretty well defined in the minds of
most that the health board to act with
of the gentleman from Bremen in this
regard, whose motto is Carthage de-
war when regular" physicians are in
question.
The state will not incline to carry
on Or permit the carrying on of sys-
tenn of savage attack on the physicians
to crafty the revenge or satisfy the
grudges Of any man or coterie. Ii there
is need of reform on the state board
it should be gone about in a fashion
more dignified and with less apparent
savagery of motive than seems to be
actuating much of the quarrel that is
in undignitied progress. AS a class phg-
sicians will compare very favorably
with any other business or profess
sional class Their fees are not ex-
orbitant compared with those of other
professions and their training and ay-
erage of intelligence and citizenship
are equal to any.
1t would not be out of the way to
mildly hint to Mr.. Miller that he is
displaying too much heat and evinciug
a rather excessive amount of zeal in
his pursuit of the doctors. They are en-
titled to more consideration than he
appears to realize. 1t might be of value
to him to suggest in passing that his
unqualified attacks are likely to bring
about a revulsion that will defeat amy
good he might otherwise accomplish
by logical and patriotic demand for
Investigation and regulation Of such
abuses as may exist. In short, Mr. Mil
Ter should "cut out" the surplusage of
his fierceness and cultivate calm 1t
will be hard to convince the people
who employ them that the physicians
are either incompetents or rogues.

No Extra Charge

This incompatible service costs the
price of the commonplace. We handle
advertising on the usual agents com-t
mission.
We multiply results to multiply adver-
Using. We create successes because sue
cesses expand. And our revenue comes
through expansion.
We spend on copy what other great
agencies spend on soliciting, and we con-
slider it better spent.
Before we had Advisory Boards, too
many campaigns failed to bring back
their cost. Other agents have the same
experience still.
Now our failures are so rare, and our
successes so great, that our business has
multiplied many times over.
So we need to charge nothing extra.
We can better afford to keep accounts than
to kill them.
The service which pays our clients best
is the service that best pays US.

Goino in Debt for Farms.

More than 80 per cent of the people
of ordinary means-people who depend
on their salaries for a living-have
farms because they were wise enough
to go in debt for them. Had they waited
for the money to accumulate until a
sufficient amount had been accrued. the
probabilities are that they would never
have had home at ALL If a man is able
to buy a home for his family, how
ever modest, it shows he is thrifty,
sensible and far-seeing, and raises him
considerably in the estimation of his
fellow men. 1T IS never too late to begin
a good thing, and there is nothing bet
ter than owning your own home.

SUNDAY IN SCRANTON.


ANY Sunday evening when there is
not cloudburst and the temperature
is not more than 80 degrees below,
or when Providence does not other
wise interfere, the churches in Scran-
ton can be found with the finest vol
untary outdoor reception committee Oh
young men anywhere in Iowa. Iheif
number is large, indicating much pus-
mess. altho Investigation fails to YER
fly this
You young men who find yourselves
permanent fixtures in this standing
committee, isn't 1t a superb and mar
velous sight to see people come thru
a church door and do such a remark
liable thing as to go home? Isn't u
amazing and worth going miles to see
Henry appropriate Mary's arm and es-
cort her home while he has to run the

humanity who is more adept at rup-
bering than a hay rube at Coney Us
land? If the public was not so colo
blooded. long suffering or unapprecia-
tive. it would provide seats for your
comfort. a gallery for observation pur-
poses or night glasses so things can
be better seen.
The versatility of this committee is
remarkable for they can change their
base of operations quicker than a hobo.
The close of any public gathering is
the signal and the company falls In

always appreciated by sensible people

In Scranton there are many charter
members: also some new recruits to
the ranks of the rubbernecks and
incipient detectives. Many familiar
faces can be seen and it is quite
comforting to many to witness the in
terest and solicitude of such COM
mittee when one leaves any public
place. A list of the members would
not look so bad posted in a conspicuous
place or printed in the local paper for
reference by those who value their
valuable services on many Sunday
evenings during the year. For what
would we do without the inevitable,
rubbering. sightseeing. tittering. mob
of embryo Pinkertons to see that peo-
pie get the proper attention after the
closing of public gathering?

BAD IOWA MILK.

washington County, Ia, Press1
Dr. Kimme told the superintendent
of Iowa state institutions that S6,000,-
900 worth of Iowa dairy cows are suf-
fering with tuberculosis and State Vet
erinarian Koto agreed. The dairy
herd conditions were called terrible.
They advocated city control of the
milk supply everywhere Dr. Kirschner.
of the tuberculosis colony IN Iowa
City, said that most of the eighty
seven patients he has are farmers,
who have been infected by the cows
they MIXED. Fort Dodge grappled
with this evil five years ago, and since,
there has been a decrease of 231a per
cent in sick cases originating from
bad milk. And he added that 100 other
Iowa cities and towns had put milk
under surveillance. Kimme argued
that after next. New Years a penalty
should be put on every man who sells
milk from diseased COW. Nor should
owners of diseased cows be paid for
affected cows Slain by inspectors. They
, have no business to have such stock.
1t would seem there is more danger
in this state from milk and water than
from beer and other liquors.

Cut Straw for Cows.

I wish to speak of the advantages
of feeding the milk cows oats and
barley sheaves cut up In three fourths
inch lengths, says q farmer. For the
past three winters we have been using
a No. 2 straw cutter for doing this
work. We always stack up enough of
the greenest sheaves to run us thru
the winter. AS soon as the grass is
gone we start to cut these sheaves
and feed them to the milk cows. Every
evening we cut five sheaves four Of
oats and one of barley. This is fed
to three milk cows in the morning.
When they finish eating this. we give
them three gallons Of crushed oats,
wheat and barley. This completes
the morning ration. In the evening
they are fed two gallons of crushed
grain and ten to twelve mangos With
this ration we have been milking thoAe
three cows all the year round with
the exception of from two to fourteen
days before freshng.

Grain Drills.

AS spring is coming nearer many
farmers will be contemplating the buy
ing of grain drills. / wish to give my
opinion as to the difference of crop
and earliness of same when seeded by
different styles of drills, writes S. ".
Tomeko, a Canadian farmer. Grains
should be sown about one-half inch
below moisture line. / believe the shoe
drill is best suited for that purpose as
it can be set to SOW right in the mois-
ture and yet not loosen the surround
ing soil very much, thereby insuring
immediate termination. The same
can be said of a double disc drill. But
on the other hand single disc or hoe
drill is disadvantage to the farmer
in a region where rainfall is scant and
where moisture Is saved by scientific
cultivation. I may say that those
drills are robbers of soil moisture,
as they leave the soil loose. which
in short time dries up and prevents
quick termination. a thing that is
much desired where the seasons are
short for maturity. Therefore, if
you want your seed to sprout and
come up quickly you must have the
proper drill and If seeded as men
toned above T assure you that your
crop will be far ahead of that of your
neighbor who does not follow this
