TEST OF FABRICS.
How to Detect Frauds In Silk, Linen
or Wooden Goods.

or WOODEN GOODS.
OF the goods sold as "all wool" there
is not One-tenth that is genuine. Cen
orally the main component is cotton.
The test for this is simple. All that
Is necessary is to pull out few threads
and apply a lighted match. Cotton
will 60 off in blaze; wool will shrivel
up.
To distinguish pure linen from coun-
terfeit is even easier. The intended
buyer need BUT wet the finger and ap-
ply it to the goods. If they are pure
linen the moisture will pass through,
the spot touched will be soaked at
once. and almost Immediately one side
will be as wet as the other
Frauds are more numerous in silk
than in any other fabric, but here also
the material of adulteratiOn is cotton
Its presence can be readily discovered
Draw few threads out The piece of
cotton will snap off short when pulled,
while the silk will stretch and permit
a considerable pull before breaking.
The boosted silk of our grandmoth-
ers that ''stood by ITSELF is not neces-
sarily the best. Modern ingenuity has
devised means by giving the poorest
articles the best body requisite for this
purpose. Shellac and other sticky sub
stances mixed through the fabric will
produce as stiff silk as ever graced
the wardrobe of our ancestors. Such
stuff is quite worthless, however. as it
quickly rots.

newer to repeal such a law, when en-
acted. remains with the legislature
power to pass law to exempt such
lands from taxation the legislature
does not now possess, and 1T is, there

TREATMENT OF HORSES.
How to Feed and Water Them In Hot
Weather.

Weather.
Extremely hot weather brings more
or less suffering to horse, ana II the
animal does not receive proper care
and attention at this trying period dis
astrous results are sure to follow.
Above all things else. says Country
Life In America. do not Overwork the
farm horse or force the driver for too
much speed or make long drives with
out frequent rests.
At this season. when water is usual
IL more or less scarce and horses ap-
narently have an Unsuitable thirst. the
matter of watering deserves consider
able attention DO not give the horse
foo much at a time. and it is safest to
give none at all while he Is very
warm.
bran mash twice a week will as
sist in keeping the system cool. ana ID
case of overfat a dram OF pulverlzed
saltneter added to the mash will be
beneficial.
On very hot days allow work horses
two hours for dinner instead of one
and do not feed until they are some
what cooled off. Also remove the har-
ness at this time: this extra labor is
more than offset by the comfort it
gives the animals.
In three horse team the middle one
Is most liable to heat exhaustion be-
cause of the additional heat radiated
nv m. side
On this account it is advisable to
change the horses so that one will
not be compelled to be in the middle
for more than half day at time.
The pernicious Fostering of flies is
another matter that cannot be over
looked The dairy COWS and calves. as
well as the horses. can be well pro-
tected from flies by such preparations
as are for sale at almost all drug stores
or are advertised in the farm papers.
These preparations are not expensive
and are best applied with a sprayer.
although brush or rag will do II
sprayer is not available. For the work
horse light treatment every morning
will afford better protection from flies
than a net or blanket and is much
cooler.
According to another writer, it is al
lowable when a horse is hot to let him
have three or four swallows of cool
water. but no more. The few swallows
will help cool him. and another limited
drink may be given every few minutes
for four or five times. after which be
may drink his fill without danger. In
careless or inexperienced hands, how
ever. the only safe way is to let the
horse stand for half an hour or more
with no water until he is fairly cooled
off.
Salt is necessary to horses. but it
should not be given to them in large
quantities and irregularly. An excess
Of salt at one time produces conges-
ton of the stomach and induces ex-
cessive thirst. The best plan is to
keep rock salt in reach Of the horses
at all times. so that they can satisfy
their appetite by an occasional lick.
If you have not followed this practice.
introduce it gradually by giving the
animal a little salt with his regular
ration for week.

Dear Sir:-Referring to proposed Con-
stitutional Amendment No. would say:
AS state expert printer have given the
publications involved in this proposed
amendment special thought, and am of
opinion both these publications are en-
tireiy superfiuous. The extensive annual
publication lin daily newspaper pub
fished at the capital city attracts alb
solutely no attention. The annual re-
port of the state treasurer is published
In book form, and to an extent that
makes it easy for every person special
Nv concerned to secure copy. To con-
form strictly with the law as it is at
present. means the expenditure, under
Reasonably favorable printing contracts,
Of approximately $4,000, sum which
can be used to excellent advantage un-
der conditions which ordinarily suggest
the greatest care and economy upon the
mart of those under whose direction the
printing fund is expended.

Section 23. The legislature shall
provide by law for an enumerati ton of

power to prescribe the bounds of con-
grG Ssional senatorial and representa-
tive districts. and to apportion anew
the senator's and representatives among

provisions of section second of this
article"
and to substitute therefor the follow
ing:
Section %. The legislature shall
provide by law for enumeration of the
inhabitants of this State in the year
1915, and every ten (10) years there
after. At any session after any emu
meration of the inhabitants of this

senatorial and representative districts,
or of any one of such districts, and to
auuOrtiOn anew the senators and rem
resentatives among the several dis

THIRD PROPOSED AMEND.
AIENT.

The third proposed amendment Is
contained in Chapter sos of the Laws
of Minnesota for tn. year 1909.
PURPOSE. BY this amendment it is
proposed TO add an entirely new sec
ZION TO Article TX of the Constitution,
to be known as Section IL, and when
shall read as follows:
Section II. The Legislature may
provide for the payment, by the State
OF Minnesota, of damages to growing
crops by hail and wind, or either. and
10 provide fund for that purpose, IN
cludlng the necessary expenses OF CIV
ing effect to this act may impose q
speclhc tax upon lands, the owners Oh
winch at their op. on, have listed the
same with county auditors for thal
purpose, and no payment shall be made
or any such damages except from the
fund so provided"
EFFECT. The ehect of this Amend
ment, If adopted, will be to authorize
the State to become a trustee In the
collection and disbursement of fund
for the payment of damages to grow
Ing crops by hail wind, or either.
This fund is to be created and MAIN
tanned by specific tax i-lposed by the
legislature upon the lands of such per-
sOrs. ONLY, as shall voluntarily list the
same with their respective count! au-
dftOrs for that purpose. Under IT there
could be no tax for such purpose I'M
posed on the lands of any owner VINO
does not consent thereto. The legfsia-
ture is also authorized to include In
such fund the necessary expenses OF
administration of the law. The adOp-
ton of the amendment will authorize
the Legislature to direct that the tax
ing machinery of the state be used to
! levy and collect the tax necessary 10
raise such fund and to provide for the
disbursement of same by the officers
Of the State; but any payments to be
made by the State, by reason of dam
age by hail or wind will have to be
made from such fund and from no
other. In the settlement of any such
damages the State would assume no
liability beyond the amount of such
fund, and could not further be rem
dered liable. A similar amendment
1908, but not adopted. The amendment
then offered read as follows:
Section II. The legislature may
provide for the payment by the State
of Minnesota of damages to growing
crops by hail and ! ind, or either, and
to provide a fund for that purpose, may
impose a specific tax upon lands, the
owners of which, at their option. have
listed the same with county auditors
for that purpose, and no payment shall
be made of any such damages except
from the fund so provided
The main difference between the
amendment now offered, and the one
| last quoted, being that the legislature
is now to be authorized, In addition to
| providing a fund for the purpose of
| paying damages to growing crops by
hail and wind, or either, to further
| provide an additional tax upon the
| lands of the persons listing the
! same, to meet the necessary expenses
| incurred in the administration of the
| law and thus relieve the State there
| from. This last provision was not in
cluded in the amendment offered In
| 1905.
