desire Of the middle West to secure
appropriat ions from the national treas

Mississippi and ether western rivers
to accommodate ocean steamers. SO that
inland ports like Chicago may become
virtually seaports. OF course. Chicago
can never be made port to which
ocean ships can come: the best that
can be- done Is to make OF 1t way

REFINED SUGAR TAX IMMUNE.

MI. II. ~. HdNenSs''' ~
dent of the American Sugar Refining
Company. stated before unlted
States Senate investigating commit
tee in 1894. while the Wilson German
tar.n bill was pending in the Senate
that his company made it a rule TO
contribute to the campaign funds OF
both great political parties In order
that It might have friends ut court
whichever way the election turned.
Nothing has transpired since the
assembling OF the present extraordi-
nary session OF the Sixty.frst Con-
grcss which could be construed az
evidence Of any change In the sugar
trusts policy as enunciated by the
candid Mr.. Havemeyer fifteen years
ago.
The Payne bill as 1t left the House
carried a reduction Of five one-hun-
dredths of one per cent In the rehned
sugar schedule. That is. the duty
was prodigiously scaled dwon from z
cents a pound to 1876 cents q pound
on the refined product.
While much has teen heard on the
floors of both houses. and from rep
rssentatives of both political par
ties, in protest against various other
schedules, the continuance of this
enormous tax against one Of the
prime necessities of every household
singularly enjoys almost total I'm
manity from assault.
The few independent refineries OF
the country which thus far the mighty
trust has been unable to crush out
OF exstence. declare that they re-
quire no protection and favor the
admission Of both raw and refined
sugar entirely free Of duty.
II IS reliably asserted that the
American Sugar Refining Company
recently has sold In foreign coun-
tries . large quantity Of it's refined
product at figures nearly two cents
under the price charged home con-
sumcrs, or at a reduction about equal
to the present duty.
That the trust profted by the
transaction goes withou, saying. No
American trust Is in business solely
for the amusement or recreation OF
its stockholders.

NATIONS ANNUAL TEA PARTY.

The fathers Of the Republic would
be glad they started the Revolu-
ton II they could come back to earth
today and see the brilliant and beau
tiful array of charming Daughters
now gathered in Washington. They
would find there an array Of hand
some women, superb gowns, high IN
selhgence and striking millinery that
cannot be exceIled In the world. The
simple ancestors who ut" bled and
died for their country would he be-.
wildered by the dazzling display OF
patriotism. but they would certainly
swell with rnde.
The Daughters Of the American
Revolution /, such an organization As
no other country In the world can
present. From Canada to the Gull.
from Maryland to California. the coun-
Try Is dotted with lbs chapters. which
are social and patriotic centers wher.
ever they are located. The Daughters
have done a great work In teaching
love Of country and In preserving the
memory Of their nobse s:res. Through
their children this will be handed
down from generation to generation
through the ages yet to come.
The annual congress Of the Da1gh-
tiers Of the American Revolution Is
like the chorus Of MY Country. IT'S

and voices Il Is the annual tea-party

We have heard a great deal about
balanced rations during the last few
years. Balanced rations for cows. for
feeding cattle. sheep. hogs. human be-
ings and poultry. until q good many
people really believe that a great deal
OF feed Is wasted unless It is properly
balanced and contains due percentages
OF protein and carbohydrates.
Prof. Hacker gave some Of the the
ories about balanced rations for cows
a sad shock by proving that II is not
necessary 10 feed dairy cows so care
fully. and Prof Davenport said to me
one time that Il was often good econo-
my TO waste little cheap feed rather
than buy a costly one in order to make
a balanced ration.
Mr. Mapes Of New York announced
that he was a hereto as far as feeding
balanced rations 10 poultry by telling
how he gave his hens a mixture of all
kinds OF feed and let them select what
they liked best.
While have never tried to feed sci
entlfieally balanced rations to my poul-
try. have roughly guessed at the
proper feeds SO the hen might have
enough protein to produce eggs and
carbohydrates enough to prevent the
waste Of protein, and have been very
well satisfied with the results.-Mil-

The Farm Poultry.

Under the heading, The Hen aid

interest of every home builder in
the South. There can bs no real
home without hen. The eulogy on
the hen is as follows:
The hen is the symbol of peace and
plenty-wherever her cackle Is heard
the lamp Of civilization burns. The
poets have immortalized the linnet
and the mocking bird. and a brainy
congressman before his peers has
had the temerity to sing the praises
OF the busy hen. Not only that, a
great literary weekly has threatened
to lay before It's readers all there is
to tell about that domestioated crea-
ture which so assiduously lays the
delicate and nourishing food classed
on the market as eggs.
The Cotton Journal is indeed inter
ested in the great poultry industry.
