The political cauldron in Pierce
County is beginning to Eoil merrily.
The unfortunate death of Congress
man Cusbman has thrown things into
a tumble and there is no means of
predicting the outcome. The Repub-
Iicans are rent by two factions, one
of which is headed by Governor Hay
and Senator Paulhamus. They have
bitter enemies and the chances are
that no common ground will be reach
ed. As result of this ruction, the
Democrats believe they have good
chance to send a representative to
Congress and they are casting about
for q man who will be able to get
votes. AS there are many persons
who want to slap the Republican
party for its dilatory tactics on the
tariff. the Democrats seem strengthen
ed in their position. The situation
is the most interesting that has con
fronted the state politically for a
long time.

CHEESE AND BUTTER.
Managers of Factories and Cream. cries in Ontario Must Be
 Licensed.

At the end of 1910 no person will be allowed to act as manager of cheese factory or creamery in Ontario unless he possess a certificate of qualification from a dairy school, or secures special permit from the de- partment of agriculture. A bill GOV ering this will become law at the ses- sion of the Ontario legislature The effect of such legislation if properly worked out and enforced should be greatly to enhance the value of the cheese and butter makers profession, and raise the standard of wages, says the Rural New Yorker. The man who can qualify will be all right and will welcome this legislation. The other man, who manages, by underbidding competent men, to get a job as man. ager, will be down and out. And so he should be, if he cannot turn out the kind of goods the critical market of to-day demands. This certificate plan, though it may increase the cost of making somewhat, should be of ad- vantage to the employer also. He

Will have some guarantee that the man he engages to manage his busi- ness is qualified for the work. This should be worth something, and he should be willing to pay little for the sense of security which the cer- tifcate system will give him. There is this to be said, however. No maker, however well qualified he may be, should be expected to make a first class article of cheese or butter out of bad milk or cream, or in a building that is unsanitary or has not the prop CT equipment. Given good milk or cream and proper sanitary conditions and equipment, an employer has the right to expect that a maker who can qualify for a certificate under this new legislation will be able to turn out first-class finished product at all times. If this new legislation will not do this, then it would better not be put in force.

Notes for the Farmer.

Good grooming is as essential to the health of horses as judicious feed ing and watering. All animals require a variety of food, and this should be considered in the ration of working horses.
 Experiments at the Kansas and h. diana stations show that the continued feeding of moldy corn to horses causes nervous and intestinal trou- bles of a serious nature.
 If you want to discover the weak points of horse, take him and ex- anime him while at rest. They show up better than while the animal is in action.
