Samuel A. Cook
For United States Senator.
The Farmers Friend.

The nomination of a United States
senator to be held Sept. 6, 1910, is of
unusual Importance to the farming and
dairying interests of the state, owing
to the great growth of these industries
during the past few years. Wisconsin
has been steadily coming to the front
in dairy and farm products, until she
stands among the foremost of the
states of this nation. One of those
who have given of their time and en-
ergy to develop these interest is Hon.
Samuel A. Cook of Neenah, candidate
for the nomination for United States
Senator. 1t is safe to say that no man
has rendered more important service
for the farmers and dairymen than Mr..
Cook. Regardless of party affiliation
the farmers and dairymen should rally
to the support of Mr.. Cook. Coming
from the farm and still engaged in that
industry he is naturally interested in
problems affecting the farming and
dairy interests. While in congress he
secured the passage of the filled cheese
law, which has meant millions Of doll
ars to the farmers in Wisconsin and
throughout the country, effecting as it
did almost every branch of the farm
industry.
This bill provided that filled cheese,
which was an imitation of real cheese
and cheaply made, but sold in competi-
ton with the genuine article, to the
detriment of the honest manufacturer
or dealer, should be branded for just
what it was. At the time of the pas
sage of the bill Mr.. Cook was highly
praised for his work by papers interest
ed in farming and dairying. He has
kept up his interest in these matters
since leaving congress, aiding them in
every possible way.
Mr.. Cook also advocated pure food
law similar to the one recently passed;
he introduced in congress bill, and
urged it's passage for pure food law,
and furnished the proof showing that
fully one-half the mixture called seed
and sold to farmers, had no life germ,
and still worse, contained more or less
mixture of foul seed; two measures,
the value of which agricultural inter-
ests will readily appreciate
Mr.. Cook is a successful business
man, energetic, believerin the Roose-
welt and Taft policies, and with his pre-
vlous experience as mayor, member of
assembly and congressman, will make
a valuable member of the United States
senate.
The primary election will be held on
September 6, 1910.

The Nature of Germs.

Ordinary air is by no means air
proper, but contains a number of i'm
purities, and the air of all cities al
ways contains quantity of almost
measurable particles Of dirt. With
this dirt we are sure that small par
ticles of living matter are associated.
These small bodies, coming into a
fluid rich in nutrient matter, grow up
in it and at it's expense. To these
small bodies it is now the universal
custom to attach the name germs"
What these destroyers are we do not.
of course, know. We only know that
they exist, and that they commit the
most deadly ravages wherever they
get the chance The great problem
of present day science is to learn
more about them, that the ravages
may be reduced, if not eliminated.

Florists Jarqon.

The florists have q trade jargon of
their own. When a man who grows
flowers for a living rattles off some
thing like paper whites, valleys and
Romans the confused layman has to
stop to think what the tumble of words
means. 1t is only the trade way OF say
ing paper white narcissus, lily OF the
valley and Roman hyacinth. Likewise
mum" is their word for chrysanthe-
mum, and time and space are likewise
saved by saying .'cyp" instead of
cypripedium. So Bridesmaid roses are
''maids,' American Beauties are "beau-
ties" Perle du Jardin becomes ''perle''
and is pronounced pearl, while Souve-
mir du President Carnot is reduced to
its last word, just as those other illus
trious French rose names, General
Jacqueminot and Marechal Mel, where

Played Them Both Ways.

The French comedian Perlet was ex-
traordinarily thin. A physician recon-
mended him to try some bath in the
Pyrenees, so he betook himself to the
mineral springs, where he bathed I'M
remittingly, but all in vain; he did not
increase in size. Patience" urged the
doctor. ''There is nothing like our
baths for making people fat" One
day while Perlet was waiting philo-
sophically in his bath for an embOn-
point which never came he heard
conversation in the next room, from
which his own was divided by only a
thin partition and which was occu-
pied by an enormous woman, fat as the
Hottentot Venus. Doctor" said she,
81 am getting tired of this" "Why?"
asked the Aesculapius. II have been
here two months" "Well?" well, l
am as enormous as 1 was when /
came" "a little patience, madame"
urged the doctor There is nothing
like our baths for making people thin"
Perlet, hearing these words, sprang out
of his bath, dressed. rushed home to
his hotel, ordered his bill and left for
Paris by the next train.-Argonaut.

Peculiar Electric Locomotive.

A recent number of the Electric
Railway Journal describes a peculiar
electric locomotive used for canal
haulage near Bremen, Germany The
locomotive runs on a quay, which has
to be kept clear for the passage of
drays. In order to secure the requi-
site weight for adhesion, the locomo-
tive is built in the form of two invert-
ed US connected at the top with a
girder. The width of each base is
only % inches, and so the driving mo-
tor had to be placed in the upper part
of the superstructure. The locomo-
tive thus straddles the traffic, and can
travel up and down the quay without
disturbing the trucks, which pass be-
tween the US and under the connect
ing girder

Gospel Songs a Great Help.

no life in the song, and very often
no grace in the hearts of those who
sing.
/ firmly believe that If we are to
have sacred music as a part of the
worship. then the minister must be
vitality interested, and have the con-
viction that the singing is just as
essential as the preaching. II the
preacher is not interested in the
singing and looks as If he wished Il
were over, it can readily be seen
that his convictions do not reach
very deep.
firmly believe that nothing will

God praised in gospel song, from the
lips of those who seek to make an
act of worship. and who enter into
IL with grace in their hearts.
A leader of praise should be a
man who is a consecrated christian,
for the reason that he Is not merely
there to sing songs beautifully, as
he is there to sing and get others to
