Inasmuch as a tile drainage system
is no better than the poorest section
of it, it is matter of long run economy
and good business management to eX-
ercise especial care in the selection of
tile of the best make for the drainage
system. When this has been done the
purchaser should Gull out with utmost
care any pieces that are weak and de-
fective. An attempt is made to do
this at the factory, but the process
should be repeated by the purchaser.
When an article or commodity is
advertised at 80 or 40 per cent below
the prices which usually prevail there
is quite likely a reason for it, and in
good many cases this reason is an
inferior quality. The commodity may
be "wrecking house, lumber, $4.97
morris chairs or $1998 buggies. We
are not urging folks to stop buying at
the bargain, but only to appreciate the
fact that a considerable reduction in
price almost invariably denotes a lack
in both quality and durability.

A GOOD FALL TO BUY FEEDERS,

A GOOD FALL TO BUY FEEDERS.
Taking into account the two chief
factors, stock prices and prices of
grain. the coming months would seem
to offer an unusually favorable period
for the buying and feeding Of lambs,
steers and young pigs. Corn, which
will be the chief factor in the fatten-
ing process, is now both reasona-
bic in price and of remarkably high
quality and feeding value. True,
roughage Il scarce and high priced, but
the quality will in a measure Offset
this drawback, while oat straw is Of
an unusually good quality, and this
and corn stover, which has been saved
in larger quantities than usual, can be
substituted in part for the high priced
clover and alfalfa. Moreover, prices
for live stock are good and bid fair to
be maintained, 60 that the feeds re-
ferred to can be used at substantial
profit. Not the least advantage of
feeding a considerable number of ami
mails will be the value Of the manurial
byproduct Of the feeding process to the
farm on which the animals are kept.
Every big stock market has reliable
firms that make business Of picking
up healthy young stock for just such
feeding operations usually western
bred stuff-and they will supply the
need of the farmer who cannot secure
in his own neighborhood what he may
want. In some smaller towns buyers
make specially of handling this kind
of stock, in which case they may be
dealt with.

SOME LESSONS OF A DRY SEASON

While the protracted drought which
prevailed over Il large portion of the
country worked serious hardship in
limited areas where it was unduly Sc
vere it has nevertheless forced home
some lessons for the agriculturist that
he could hardly have learned in any
other way. Chief among these is the
demonstration of the value of persist
ent cultivation Of titled crops as
means Of conserving moisture. Re
suits along this line in the shape of
good yield and fine quality of both
grain and vegetables have been an
eye opener of very convincing kind.
Again, there has been demonstrated
on thousands of rich, low acres what
could be expected from the careful
tiling of such land, the unusually dry
conditions prevailing this season pro-
ducing conditions similar to those
which would prevail were the land
properly tiled Several tracts Of this
kind that we know of, heretofore used
only as pasture or producing rank
weeds, have this season yielded bump
er crops of corn and small grain. The
question which the owner Of such a
tract may well ask himself in view of
these results is, Can I afford to let
this land lie idle, or largely so, year
after year when tiling it will make it
yield bountifully? The answer Of
many who have had such demon
stration under their very noses will
be an emphatic MOI Another lesson
of the dry season, though perhaps Of
less wide application, is the benefit
waIteirsmay be derived in seasons Of
short rainfall from irrigating plants.
While such irrigation would hardly be
feasible for large tracts, very salts
factory financial results have accom-
panied an application Of water on
fruit and vegetable gardens. A fourth
lesson which the drought has enforced
as a result of an unusually light crop
of hay is the need as we'll as the wis
dom Of making a more economical dis
posal Of the great amount of corn fOd
der which in so much Of the territory
west Of the Mississippi has been 60
ing to waste year after year. Closely
connected with this last truth has beer
demonstrated the tremendous advan

drought has borne with much severity
on those in sections where worst, bu
it will have been worth the cost il
the lessons which it has taught have
been brought effectively to the atten
ton of tillers of the soil.

cattle would get hold Of In eating corn
fodder in one shape or another would
be entirely harmless.
As the time for the winter SHOWS
approach the owner of the newly set
family or commercial orchard should
straightway take the measures neces-
sary to protect the trees from the at
tacks of rabbits and mice. In guard
ing against the mice one of the first
things to be done is to remove all
dead grass, leaves or litter from the
base of the tree within a radius of
two or three feet, which will prevent
their nesting near the trees. To pro-
tect from both mice and rabbits the
trunks of the young trees should be
wrapped with some kind of paper wen
up to the lower branches. For this
purpose wood veneer or building pa
per may be used, though old newspa-
pers used four or six ply will answer
the same purpose and be the cheapest
wrapper that can be got. The paper
or other wrapper should be tied Sc
curely with binding twine or cotton
cord. In way Of supplementing this
rodent campaign, guns, traps and fer
rets should be called into service.
The efficiency Of thousands of rural
schools might be vastly increased
were a serious attempt made to teach
in simple and direct way some Of the
fundamental and very important
things which are taught elaborately at
the agricultural colleges. The list of
subjects discussed and demonstrated
ought to include the testing of seed
corn, the determination Of butter fat

/ small grains and a demonstration of

ton in things which premise SO much
| for the agricultural betterment OF

teacher is city bred or knows little
about these interesting and important
| subjects. But this should not prove
a serious obstacle, for enterprisine
companies are publishing books which
outline this work in a very satisfac
tory manner. A little determination
coupled with the assistance which
boys and girls of the school will bt
only too glad to give. will make pos
sible very helpful and practical ,lint
Of study and experimental work which
will serve to keep many restless boy
in school and vary the routine worl
for both boys an.I girls.

Scores OF persons were injured
and many knocked into uncon-

across the Hudson river to hospital
in Manhattan.
The first outbreak of violence in this
city occurred today III Fifth avenue

gathered at the corner when an
American EXPRESS company's wagon
drove UP. The mob peited the driver
with stones and grabbed the reins.

Unite in One.
THE METHOD OF PROCEDURE
VIII be Determined by Committee of
Lawyers TO be Appointed by Chief
Counsel Stone OF tie l.. * y.

New York, Oct. est has been defin-
itcly decided that the railroads and ex-
press companies of the entire country
VIII unite in nm attack through the
courts on the Num- Elkins act. which
was passed by Congress last June at
the urgent solicitation Of President
Taft The act provides for an inter
state commerce court to which rail
roads and shippers alike may appeal
The attack on the law was decided
upon by the conference of railroad
lawyers from all parts of the United
States, which has been In session here
for several days under the chairman
ship of Col Henry l.. Stone, general
counsel for the Louisville & Nashville
railroad
Inc exact method of procedure will
be IN the hands of a committee of seven
lawyers to be appointed IN the near
future by Col. Stone. The names of tho
men he will appoint will not be made
pubic. Col. Stone said before Ieav-
ing for his home that most OF the law
s US VINO attended the conference de-
sired that secrecy be observed.
II Is likely that Col. Stone will be
chairman of the committee as he has
taken the lead In the discussion of rail-
road legislation ever since the original
conference OF railroad lawyers met ut
PORTSMOUTH, n. H., early in August.
IL is supposed that the railroads Will
attack the law on the ground of con-
stitutionality. There seems TO be little
objection to the newly established court
or commerce but a strong opposition Is
manifested TO the extension of the now
ers OF the interstate commerce commits
sion as provided by the nov law.
The following provisions of the act
are said TO be the ones whose consti-
tutionality is questioned by the railroad
attorneys:
(A)-That portion OF section l5 which
coniers power upon the commission to
suspend II rate for-a possible period OF
10 months.
