Feeding the Dairy Calf.

At two weeks of age the calf
will begin to nibble at hay, and
good clover or alfalfa hay should
be kept before it, giving a new
wisp every day. About the same
time it will also begin to nibble
at oats or bran, and a box of
either should be placed where it
is easily accessible. 1t is we'll to
encourage the eating of grain and
hay as much as possible, as the
calf does not begin to ruminate
until it has solid food in it's
stomach. Corn-meal or timothy
hay should not be fed, as both
are fattening feeds, and heifer
calves designed for the dairy
must not be allowed to become
fat and beefy.

Refused Pardon.

Emotional insanity and the un-
written laws were disapproved
Saturday when Governor Wilson
refused to grant pardon to Otis
Gragg, convicted of manslaught-
er in Pulaski county, and sent to
the penitentiary for three years
for the killing of Minerva Bow
man, his wife's mother. The plea
in the case and the reason for
asking for pardon was that
Gragg was not in his right mind
at the time he fired the shot. He
had discovered that his wife was
u n Fl tn full and shot her,
in the presence of her mother.
Mrs. Bowman rushed forward to
try to save her daughter and the
second shot from Graggs revol-
yer, which was aimed at the
wife, struck Mrs. Bowman, kill
ing her instantly. Gragg claim
ed that he was not in his right
mind at the time of the shooting.
Regarding this plea and in refus-
ing the pardon Governor Wilson
says:
Il take no stock in this emo
tional insanity. He practically
condoned his wife's sins and
came back to her twice or more
and finally drew a pistol which
he carried habitually and shot
his wife and accidentally shot
her mother. ;" The Governor says
the verdict of the jury was mer-
ciful and he sees no reason for
interfering. Somerset Journal.

best thing that could happen in
this connection would be for the

The country, after all, is the

our advice to young men today is,
as it has ever been stick to the
farm. An exchange, with true
philosophy, says:
Zone of the most pathetic
sights to be seen in New York
City is some four hundred COM
paratively young men standing
in line file waiting for the free
distribution of one-fourth of
loaf of bread each, this bunch
having stood there for hours, the
same being unable to get en-
ployment to earn living. If
the boys in the country knew
how the thousands of poor peo-
pie in the city longed for little
land in the country on which to
live and get the fresh air, then
they would hesitate before leav-
ing the good old country farm
for the crowded tenant houses of
the city.
THE cities are overrun. eth
opportunity to make money there
opens only to the man who has
money, and thousands of them
go broke. The safest place is'on
the farm. If the people in the
county knew how one-half the
town people lived they would
buckle down to work and save
money in the country. If the
farming class would stick to their
work six days each week the
year around, as the laborer in
the city must do. or lose wages
and be locked for every hour
late, the young country youths
and farmers would be more sue
cessful. !"

The Fly Pest.

some persons contend should be
called the typhoid fly is the
Merchants Association, of New
York. 1t has hired experts and
conducted experiments and de-
voted large sums of money to
the tast of convicting the fly of
being an agent of disease. We
reproduce a set of rules issued
by the association, which it be-
lieves should be observed in
every American household. Here
they are read, mark, learn and
inwardly digest them, post them
where they will be seen:
keep the flies away from the
sick, especially those i'll with con-
tagious disease. Kill every fly
that strays into the sick room.
His body is covered with disease
germs.
"Deot allow decaying mate
riafo any sort to accumulate on
or near your premises.
"All refuse which tends to any
way to fermentation, such as
bedding straw, papar waste and
vegetable matter should be dis
posed of or covered with lime or
kerosene oil.
Screen all food.
Keep all receptacles for gar
bage carefully covered and the
cans cleaned or sprinkled with
oil or lime.
Keep all stable manure in
vault or pit screened or sprinkled
with lime, oil or other cheap pre-
paration.
See that your sewerage sys-
tenn is in good order; that it does
not leak, is up to date and not
exposed to flies.
Pour kerosene into the drains.
Cover food after a meal; burn
or bury all table refuse.
: Screen all food exposed for
sale.
Screen all windows and doors,
especially the kitchen and din
ing-room.
Burn Pyrethrum powder in
the house to kill the flies.
Don't forget if you see flies,
their breeding place is in nearby
filth. 1t may be behind the door,
under the table or in the cuspi-
dor.
If there is no dirt and filth
there will ne no flies.
If there is a nuisance in the
neignborhood write at once to
the health department"
There are theorists who believe
that everything in nature has a
purpose. So far it has not been
ascertained that the purpose of
the fly is beneflcient. Until it is
shown that the determination of
the fly might deprive the world
of benefits, there is no good rea-
son who he should not be des-
troyed. Fly time for 1909 is now
at hand. Prepare for the fly a
reception that will make him
sorry he came. Better still, pre-
vent his existence.
Get busy and make the fiy
come clean. Kill him wherever
you see him. Should he light on
the baby's head, get a hammer.

THE CHlLD'S HOME TRAIN
ING. WHAT IT SHOULD BE.
(BY MATTHEW TAYLOR).


CONTINUED FROM LAST WEEK.
The home environments should
be that of decency and order
with an increasing tendency to
beautify it, while its associations
should be such as admire its de-
cency and order and at all times
ready to give their approval and
encouragement, for it occures to
my mind that nature alone makes
only that part of our character
which tends to bring together
birds of a feather, for as the old
philosopher said, 1.-The temper,
the sentiments, and in general
the whole conduct and charac-
ter of men are influenced by the
example and dispositions of the
persons with whom they asso-
ciate," and this has long since
passed into proverb and brings
to mind the fact that our sur
roundings should be that of an
unselfsh brotherhood where the
rich and the poor associate to-
gether, where the strong bear
the infrmities of the weak, and
each in honor prefers the other
as after the day of Pentecost, for
in my opinion if there is ever
another Pentecost it will have to
commence in the homes of the
people. However, | wish to say
in regard to nature that while |
think it only tends to brin g
about a brotherly feeling to the
extent people are united on any
subject. think it may be used
to demonstrate the necessity Of
perseverance in any good cause
as before mentioned and also to
bring about reverence for the
divinity and instill in the mind a
disposition to submit to His will.
For instance let us take the child
in the second state of infancy
when it has become morally and
religiously responsible for its con-
duct in this life and call it's at
tention to the fact that there is
a divine being who created this
world, and not only the world
we live in, but he also created
the sun that rules the day and
the moon and stars that shine by
night. He likewise created the
beasts of the field and the birds
of the air and every living thing
on the land or in the sea. He
gave t h honeybee knowledge
how to gether wax from bios
SONS and to suck out honey and
to build cells like houses and ar
range them in the form of city
with streets through which they
may come and go, that gave
them ability to smell from afar
t he flowers from which they
gather wax for their houses and
honey for their food. They fly
back in the right direction to
their home and SO provide for
winter IS if they foresaw it.
They also place over themselves
a queen from whom posterity
may be propegated; and build
for her palace and keep it
guarded.
When the time for propagation
comes fourth she goes accompa-
nied by attendants called drones
from cell to cell and lays her
eggs. which her attendants COW
ers over with a kind of ointment
that they may not be injured by

race. Afterwards when this has

vide. Last but not least he Gre
ated man in his own image and
gave him soul or mind by which
he is enabled to enjoy this world
and to prepare here for just such
life in the spiritual world as he
wishes to live throughout eterni-
ty. That in order to secure to
every person this glorious privi-
lege he sent his divinely begot-
ton son into the world to set an
example for all and suffer and
die so as to atone for unperfec-
tons we can not avoid. Now, it
seems to me this is sufficient to
confirm any intelligent person in
favor of the divine. And it fur
ther appears that any young per-
son with this information, aided
by regular attendance at Sun
day School may be brought up
in the way they should go, and
will not depart from it.
Now let us suppose that the
ministers of all denominations
fifty years ago had gone to the
parents of their different church
es and said do you know that
you are now a teacher and re-
sponcible to your children, t %
your country and your God for
their moral and religious train
ing? Do you know that tn e
children under your care are
possessed of a worldly and spir-
itual existance? Do you know
that there are two states of in
fancy through which all children
pass, one from birth to the years
of accountability, and one from
that time till they become men
and women? Do you know that
the soul is an angle and that an
angle is no more than an uE-
bodied mind and the mind will
seek just such surroundings in
the spiritual world as it enjoys
most in this world; and that the
foundation must be laid in the
first state of infancy on which
the moral and religious charac-
ter must be created during the
second state? Do you know that
in order to build up such charac-
tiers as your moral and religious
duties demand requires proper
example with patience and per-
severance on your part? Do you
know that it is your duty to in
form them t h at the happiest
man in Heaven is the greatest
man, and that is Jesus the Christ
himself and the reason why he is
the happiest is because he has
done more for the human race
than all others combined.
Hence you should teach them
that true happiness comes from
doing good to others, and re-
member we are ready at any and
all times to give you any assist
ance in our power. If they had
taught and enforced these prin-
ciples our moral and religious
condition would be very differ
ent from what it is to-day, but
instead of urging upon their
members the Importance of know
ing and doing their duty by rails

ture and admonition of the Lord

were doing so, | suppose, when

SOLID FRONT AGAINST BILL
"PRoGRESSIVES'' DISCUSS FINAL
VOTE ON TARIFF.
Believe United Action Would
Strengthen the Cause Of Down
ward Revision With Conferees.

The progressive republicans in the Sen
ate are deliberating among themselves
upon their attitude on the final vote or
the tariff bill. The suggestion has been
made and is now under consideration
whether it would be advisable or not to
attempt to present a solid front in a
negative vote on the bill.
Those who forwarded this suggestion
contend that If considerable number OF
republican progressives should vote
against the bill it would strengthen the
course of downward revision with the
conferees. 1t is also claimed that the
spectacle of six or eight republican SEN
ators voting against a party tariff meas
ure would supply President Taft with a
powerful argument with the conferees in
urging downward revision.
No decision has yet been reached fol
united action in this direction and the
senators who have the proposition unuel
consideration are proceeding rather tim
idly and with great deliberation. 1t is
realized that the step propose would
be a very serious undertaking, and Car
only be pursued after most careful con-
Sideration of the necessities of the case
1t is declared that Senator La Toilette
will certainly vote against the final pass
age of the bill, and there are intimations
that Senator Dollver may follow suit

say that If 1t seems likely that three oI
four of the negative votes will stand to-
gether it may be possible to encourage
others.
1t is not expected. of course. to de-
feat the passage of the bill, and the
negative vote would be cast solely to en-
phaSize the protest against excessive
rates and to encourage the downward
