Live Stock and Fertility.
AS a rule, the best farming is done
where some form of live stock grow
ing and feeding is being practiced
however, it is not correct to say that
fertility can not be maintained without
live stock. The matter of maintaining
soil fertility by the use of lcgume crops,
aided by mineral fertilizers used to in
crease the growth Of these crops, is
possible, although as a general propo-
sition it is not profitable.
1t is not the fertility alone which
live stock brings to the farm. but the
organic matter which their presence
brings to the SOIL. III auultlOu 10 the
humus and plant food contained in
stable manur there are present GER
tain bacteria that assist in the work of
making the plant food contained in the
manure available to the growing plants.
After completing their work of max
ing the plant food in the manure avail
able to the plants, they seize and con-
tinue their work of notification as long
as conditions are favorable.
This explains why q small applica-
ton of manure to certain soils will
produce results far beyond the actual
fertilizing value of the manure that is
used. Another, point in favor Of live
stock growing and feeding is the fact
that all rational plans Of maintaining
soil fertility depend upon. growing
crops in the rotation that are adapted
for animal feeding.
There are many live stock growers
and feeders who are not keeping the
productive qualities of their soils with
all of the manure they are making, as
well as the crop growers. By proper
cultivation and care a small amount of
manure goes a long Observation-Disclosures

AUTO CRASHES INTO TREE
Six Persons Injured, One of Them Be-
Iieved Fatally,

AS the result of a big sightseeing
automobile running wild while filled
with merrymakers on their way to New
York from Coney Island, six of the oc-
cupants of the vehicle are in hospitals
with severe injuries and one young
woman is expected to die as the result
of her hurts.
The fatally injured victim is Miss
May Emery, twenty-seven years old,
of Washington Heights, who sustained
fractures of the limbs and of the right
arm and internal injuries when the
runaway car crashed into tree on the
Ocean Parkway. All the twenty-five
passengers in the car were thrown out
by the shock.
Three of the six injured persons are
women, and Miss Rose Miller, of Man
haitian, had both legs broken and is
suffering from shock. A dozen other
occupants of the car sustained minor
injuries in the crash.

Madison, Wis, June 21.-After sit
ting 157 days the forty-ninth regular
session of the Wisconsin legislature adj
journed sine die. Only two senators
and six assemblymen stayed to see the
finish The governor worked day and
night until shortly before final adjourn
ment, when he finished considering the
last bill submitted to him.
During the five months it was in ses-
sion the legislature considered 1857
bills and 100 resolutions. Of the bills
passed 555 became laws and twenty-six
were vetoed All of the governors
vetoes were sustained, which is an I'M
usual thing During the session Gov
ernor Davidson was assisted by ex-
Attorney General L. MSturdevant, who
carefully scrutinized all bills submitted
to the executive, When a question of
constitutionality arose the matter was
submitted to Attorney General F. l..
Gilbert, whose advice was invariably
followed. 1t is believed by the governor
and his advisers that all bills approved
will stand the test of the courts.
Governor Davidson vetoed the Stout
teachers insurance and retirement BILL
known as the state teachers pension
bill.
The governor also vetoed the bill
permitting automobilists to run their
machines at maximum speed of eigh-
teen miles an hour in cities and Will

the assembly Friday afternoon.

governor said that he was sorry he
could not give the bill his approval
but he was convinced it would not re-
suit, in it's present form, in any good
The governor also vetoed 592S re-
curing the insurance commissioner to
turn in all fees collected by him to the
state treasurer. The governor said his
action was taken because the bill made
no provision for the payment of the
expenses of the insurance commission
er and his representatives in the exam
ination of foreign companies.
Bill 614S, relating to the dissolution
of domestic mutual insurance compan-
iesfi was also vetoed because it would
deprive policy holders of their inter-
est in SURPRISES.

Fourteenth Century Doctors.

Synge's "Socia, Life in England"
quotes number Of fourteenth century
hints to success for physicians:
Suppose you know nothing, say there
is an obstruction of the liver. Perhaps
the patient will say, NAY, master, 1t
is my head or legs that trouble me-
Repeat that 1t comes from the liver,
and especially use the word "obstruc-
tion," for patients do not understand
it, which is important.
Never dine with patient who has
not paid you. 1t will be cheaper to
get your dinner at an inn, for such
feasts are usually deducted from the
surgeons fee.
When you are treating wound or
accident, the friends of the patient
should be excluded, for they may faint
and cause a disturbance, but some
times higher fee may be got from
persons present fainting and breaking
their heads against wood and the like
than from the principal patient

FEWER ACCIDENTS In 1908
Bureau of Labor in Report Also Dis

Madison, Wis.,, June 19.-The Wis
consin bureau of labor has just issued
a second report on industrial acct
dents. There was marked decrease
in the number of accidents in 1908 as
compared with the preceding year.
This is to be attributed to the industri-
al depression.
The report gives additional informa-
ton regarding foreign experience, and
discusses the difficult points that must
be considered by those attempting to
frame industrial insurance legislation
for this state. An interesting feature
is copy of petition addressed to

by. representatives of both employers

asking for a commission to investigate
the subject of employers liability.

The advance recently made in in
dustrial activity and business conf
dence is fully maintained. From the
leading cities come adv1ces of wider
wholesale and retail distribution, larg-
er employment of labor, additional
work for contractors and builders, in
creased demand for manufacturing
materials and satisfactory advance fall

Broadening of demand from the

markets for iron and steel; and this
development strengthens the general
feeling of optimism regarding the
