ALKALI LAND WILL
PRODUCE GOOD RYE

Occasionally we find a piece OF
land which is pretty badly satur-
ated with alkali. Now, perhaps
you do not know it, but we are in
formed that even the worst alkali
spot will produce fine rye. AS to
the truth of this statement, we
personally, cannot say, but our
authority for saying the above is
true, is good. We know of moth
ing also including weeds, that will
grow on such spots except beets,
and they are considered fairly good
to withdraw alkali from land, and
at the same time make a very pro-
ftable crop for feeding both hogs
and cattle, and also claim they are
equally as good as carrots for cows
or hogs. If rye will do as we'll as
our informant says, and he had
with him a bundle fully five feet
in length, and as fine as one could
wish for as proof of his statement,
and he said it was the only crop of
any kind he could get from the
spot, why would it not be we'll for
farmers having such spots to fence
same and SOW to rye and use as a
hog pasture?
An acre of rye will keep ten pigs
from birth to $40 hogs and do it
to without a dollars worth of grain
other than that produced on that
one acre. 1t furnishes the green
forage so necessary to rapid
growth of the pigs, and of course
they will be unable to keep it down,
naturally a great deal of it will
head out and mature, producing a
sufficient amount of grain to fatten
the ten head of hogs that will re-
turn to the farmer $50 piece for
his trouble, or 5000 for the lot.
If any of the farmers of this val
ley have had any experience or
have at any time experimental
along this line The Dawn would
be pleased to publish their expert
mental work. We would like to
get all the information along these
lines for publication that we can.

answer of very large number is
that it will They belong to that
large class of voters who believe
that platform pledges are made to
be kept. The rank and file is not
yet poisoned with the specious doc
trine of the politician that plat
forms are made to catch votes.
The conviction that the tariff bill
now before congress is not rcspOn-
sive to the republican platform
pledge is not confined to few sen
ators; it is very widespread. Many
large and influential newspapers
have condemned in unmeasured
terms the bill and intimated with
no uncertain ring that the adoption
of the Aldrich bill will result in re-
publican defeat two years hence.
Mr.. Taft repeatedly told the repub-
lican voters from the platform in
the last campaign, that revision
meant downward -
Those senators who equivoCate
about the meaning of the tariff
plank in the republican platform
probably had something to do with
the making of it and intended it
should be capable of a double in
terpretation. But the president
does not belong to that school of
adherents. He believes, as did
Mr.. Roosevelt, that promise has
a plain, obvious meaning. and
should be lived up to. I,eaVen-

The closing hours of the con-

took leading part. 1t was during
this debate that the insurgents

vote he said would be cast as a
notice to the conteeres to report
back a bill containing reductions
in the tariff schedules. Our vote
he said shall be cast in harmony

Beveridge was answered by Aid

the republican party is party of

no right to call here the name of

that the pending bill was a fulfill

President Taft
Reviews Catholics
He, with Cardinal Gibbons, Takes
Part in Ceremony Of Golden
Jubilee Of Parish.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 15.-President Taft
this afternoon stood on the steps OF st.
Alaysius church with Cardinal Gibbons and
Archbishop Falconio. the papal delegate,
in a review Of the Mems Catholic societies
of Washington, an Incident OF the golden
jubilee of the parish.
Preceding the review the president dellv-
cred a brief address, having been intro
duced by Father Eugene De l.. Mcdonnell,
the rector, who referred to the fact that
fifty years ago President Buchanan had
assisted in the dedication services of the
church..
President Taft, i'm his speech, said:
"In our country, in this government and
under our constitution there is no union of
church and state, but rather a declared
separation OF them. This has been some
times misunderstood by those who did not
know our institutions, as an indication that
there was something hostile on the part OF
our government toward, or some lack of
sympathy with, the church of God. This Is
as far as possible from the truth, and l
have always sought in assisting every
such church on interesting occasions like
this, to testify by my presence and by
words of congratulation, that there is moth
ing which the country and the people OF
the United States so depend upon for prog
ress and advancement of their ideals as
the influence and power of all the churches
in the community. They tend 10 exalt the
nation"

the center of New York's hotel life,
When Roscoe Conkling represented the

the Fifth Avenue Hotel, at Broadway and
Twenty-third Street, had become the hotel

continues.
There are many hotels along Broadway
above Twenty-third street, but this fam
Gus old ~thoroughfare has become far too
small to contain all of them, and many
Of the latest and most prominent have
located elsewhere, for various reasons.
One hotel, the st. Regis, at Fifth Avenue
and Fifty-fifth~ street, possesses the
unique distinction of being located prac-
tlcally at the geographical center of the
Island of Manhattan. To this marked
convenience OF location the ST. Regis
adds a number of other features that

are correspondingly moderate: SO to 81
