Little Sufferer-A Score of Treat

my little boy had an awful rash all

was eczema. 1t was terrible, and used
to water awfully. Any place the water
went it would form another sore and 1t
would become crusted. A score or
more physicians failed utterly and dis

trouble. Then was told to use the

BREEDING INSECT
RESISTING PLANTS
How One Can Select Those That
Will Withstand Attacks
of Insects.

From time to time various authori-
ties have called attention to the possi-
bilities of selecting seed from plants
that have successfully withstood ad-
verse conditions, such as drought, poor
soil, fungi, etc. 1t is left to DR.. S. A.
Forbes, Illinois state entomologist, to
suggest the plan of selecting plants
that have successfully withstood the
attack of insects with the hope of
building up plant which would be
practically immune from such attacks.
In a recent address before an associa-
tion of entomologists at Madison, Wis,
DR.. Forbes said
81 would like to see the experiment
made Of growing corn from seed taken
from the few best stalks Of field
which has been overrun by insects, in

dredweight in prices within an hour.
The large western shipper was obliged
to forestall such ruinous conditions.
This was done by establishing feeding
stations on the railway lines tributary
to Chicago from the west. Most of
these are owned and controlled by the
railroad companies, although few are
owned by private parties. The large
shipper consigns his sheep to some
one of these feeding stations, and then
awaits the advice of his commission
firm as TO the number of sheep and
the time he shall send them to market.
A shipment of say 100000 sheep is thus
distributed over period of a week or
ten days, instead of all being dumped
on the market on the same day. Since
from 65 to rs per cent. of the sheep
reaching the Chicago market are con-
signed first to the feeding stations, it
can readily be seen how much they
aid in preventing market Cutting.
The record run of sheep on the Chi
cago market for one day is little less
than 10000, and run of 10000 is con.
sidered very heavy, but were it not for
the feeding stations 1t is claimed that
there would frequently be days when
the run would be from 10000 to 100,-
900 head.

A Corner" On Prayer

We sometimes hear of corner"
on wheat, oats, corn, rye, barley or
pork in the large trade centers, but
a corner" on prayer for the Wis
consin Legislature is surely novel
ty. There exists, in Madison, a
Ministerial Association which
had evidently given itself contract
to do the praying for the Legislature
during the present session, for
which the state pays the bills. 1t
so happened, last week that some
one who was not aware of the plan
of the Ministerial Association sug-
gested that a certain minister be in
vited to deliver the invocation at
the opening of the Assembly. To
this the president of the Madison
Ministerial Association objected,
basing his objection upon the fact
that the minister named was not on
the membership roll of the Madison
Ministerial Association. Well say!
That objection put Speaker Ban
croft wide awake. Calling mem
Der to preside temporarily the
Speaker took the floor, and in offer
ing a resolution inviting the minis
ter named to invoke the Divine
blessing upon the Assembly that
morning, roasted TO a turn" the
Ministerial Association, and the
people of Madison generally, for
their manifest hoggishness in all
things relating to the state funds.
When Bancroft had resumed the
chair the corner" had gone broke"
and the Madison people had been
given an inkling of widespread
public sentiment that they are alto
gether too greedy in the matter of
profting by the circulation Of mon
ey flowing from the state treasury.
Since the above was in type we
learn that the Ministerial Associa-
ton claims to have been requested
to perform the service in question.
If this be true, it seems a little
singular that the presiding officer
of the Assembly should not have
been aware of the fact. Admitting
the claim of the Association it APP
pears to us that it would have been
an act of ministerial courtesy to
have permitted the outsider to
oAiciate rather than have a scene"
over the matter.

Not Yet!

Although the naughty stalwarts
were relegated to the rear some
time ago, and the Wisconsin reform
ers have been in absolute control
for number of years, the age of
political and administrative purity
has not been ushered in. In view
of all that had been charged against
the stalWarts it is interesting to
note, in this connection, that the
present somewhat chaotic condition
of affairs in this state is being point
ed out by the reformers themselves,
instead of by those who were once
their sta1wart adversaries.
The reformers sought, ostensibly,
to clarity the dirty political pool,
but really to gain a factional ad-
vantage, by the passage Of the pri-
mary election law. The very first
test 10 which it was subjected as
applied to the United States Sen
atorship demonstrated it's made
quacy for effecting improved con-
ditions. This is shown by the fact
that the reformers have ordered a
primary probe.
Another reform movement for po-
litical purity resulted in the enact
ment of law requiring candidates
for office to itemize and make oath
to their campaign account within a
given time. Uncle Ike Stephenson,
one of the boss reformers, has prov
en- to be the most CONSPICUOUS yio-
lator of the requirements of this
law. While the reformers have
been claiming much credit for the
passage of this law it is really
among the most farcial ones to be
found in the Wisconsin statutes. AS
long as the saloon is in politics
there will be many expense accounts
filed under this law the truth of
which may well be questioned. The
law simply encourages perjury with
no beneficial offset.
The reform Governor has asked
the reform legislature TO investi-
gate charges preferred against the
present reform Commissioner of In
surance, and another prominent re-
former demands that all the reform
Commissioners of Insurance who
have held that Office be investigated.
One of the reform state officials
imparts the information that in his
opinion the biennial state printing
budget is seventy-fve thousand dol
lars too large, that is, that equally
good results could be obtained al
an annual saving of So, 500.
1t should be a source of comfort
to the ostracised stalwarts to know
and feel that they, as an organiza
ton are not mixed up in the reform
! camp rumpus.

It is as evident now as at any
time during the last seven years
that the people of the country are
siding with the Executive and
against Congress. The reason is
plain. The voters look upon the
President as a truer and sincerer
representative of their interests
than is the Legislative Body. There
is only one way for Congress to
make itself popular with the people
and that is to show itself as earnest
and as intelligent in the reform of
long tolerated abuses as is the Presi-
dent himself. The people are with
the Executive in nearly all that he
has accomplished or attempted to
do. The people are not with Con-
gress because it has been unrespon-
sive to popular demands.
