Havana, July 12.-Col. Jorge Valera,
a mulatto, and six other persons, most
of them colored, were arrested by
the secret police today charged with
conspiring to start an uprising against
the government.
The seven men were on their way to
Vieja Bermeja, in the province of
Matanzas, to which place trunk con-
tanning arms and ammunition and dy-
Mantle, had been shipped from Hava-

Letters and documents found on
the prisoners who have been brought
to Havana, are believed to implicate
many other persons in the conspiracy.
The trunk was traced by the police
officials to the medical school of the
Havana University. The janitor of
that institution was arrested today

found in his possession.

HARD TO PLEASE
Regarding the Morning Cup.

"Oh how hard it was to part with
coffee, but the continued trouble with
constipation and belching was such
that l finally brought myself to leave
it off.
Then the question was, what should
we use for the morning drink? Tea
was worse for us than coffee; choco-
late and cocoa were soon tired Of;
milk was not liked very well, and hot
water We could not endure.
about two years ago we struck up
on Postum and have never been with
out it since.
1--WE have seven children. Our
baby now eighteen months old would
not take milk, so We tried Postum and
found she liked it and it agreed with
her perfectly. She Is today, and has
been, one of the healthiest babies in
the State.
81 use about two-thirds Postum and
one-third milk and a teaspoon Of SUI
gar, and put it into her bottle. If you
could have seen her eyes sparkle and
hear her say good today when
gave it to her, you would believe me
that she likes 1t.
"If l was matron Of an infants
home, every child would be raised on
Postum. Many of my friends say,
You are looking so well!' I reply, !
am well; I drink Postum. 81 have nc
more trouble with constipation, and

FATTEN HOGS WITHOUT CORN

ishing with peas barley or wheat in
| the fall, says C. w. Peterson, in Farm
and Fireside.
Winter rye makes an excellent for
age crop from September list to snow
fall, and oats, beardless barley and
rape are good for three summer
months. The facts that large pack
lighthouses exist at Winnipeg, Cla-
gary and Edmonton, Canada, where
hogs are slaughtered in considerable
numbers, and that small establish
ments are springing up in such dry
farming and irrigated land towns as
Billings, Montana. seem to me proof
that the cornless hog industry is al
ready established, is profitable and
must increase.
Experiments conducted at the Ohio
Agricultural station show wheat to
be an excellent feed for economical
pork production. In these investiga-
lions the daily gain per hog when fed
wheat was one and thirty nine hun
dredths pounds, while those fed corn
only increased one and twent-nine
hundredths in weight. A mixture of
the two grains has the same result as
when fed wheat alone.
A bushel of wheat produced thir-
teen and seven-tenths pounds Of pork.
while bushel of corn only produced
twelve and three-tenths. pounds of
pork.
Tn hogs ate more wheat per day
than corn, SO that wheat was shown
to be more valuable feed than corn,
even allowing the gain per bushel
to be the same and not taking into
consideration the much higher quail
ity of wheat feed pork.
No one can maintain that 1t pays
to sell wheat direct at sixty-five cents
per bushel or less, when experience
demonstrates that, sold in the form Of
pork, eighty cents to the dollar per
bushel can be realized.
Wheat converted into pork at four |
dollars and twenty-five cents per
hundred would realize sixty cents per
bushel. at five dollars per hundred,
'eventy-one cents per bushel, at six
dollars per hundred, eighty-six cents
Der bushel, and at seven dollars per

GOVERNMENT TO HELP CONVICT
BOOTLEGGERS

Bootlggers will hereafter answer
not only for violation of the state 10.
cal option law, but the government
of the United States is going to take
hand in prosecutions. A few doses
from Uncle Sans dispensary of just
ice will put the fear of the bars into
the hearts of booze peddlers. The fol-
lowing from Washington tells the
story.
Washington, March 26-War on
blind tigers" and on "bootleggers"
has been declared by the administra-
ton. Hereafter persons engaged in
these forms of the liquor traffic are
to be dealt with much more drastic
ally than heretofore.
This stand of the government has
particular reference to violations of
the internal revenue law in "dry"
country, where local enactments pro-
hibit dealing in liquor. Loud COM
plants had come to President Taft
from various dry districts, nota-
bly, in the south west, that prohi-
bition laws were negatived through
the operations of the blind Tigers"
and "bootleggers" and in response to
demands for remedial measure he d.
rected that steps be taken to stop the
practice as far as lay within the fed
eral power.
New regulations were approved by
Secretary MacVeagh today. They
set out as the peddling of liquors is
not contemplated by the internal
revenue laws and no provision is
made for the issuance of any stamp
legalizing such practice, peddlers of
liquors or "bootleggers' are not to
be regarded as coming within the
class of unintentional violators and
should be arrested and reported for
when found selling
liquor in such manner.
Heavy penalties of fine and impris-
or both, are prescribed for
violators of the law.

HAS GONE UP

The highest price ever paid for a
carload Of hogs in Ogden was paid
last month by the Ogden Packing and
Provision company. The hogs were
raised by Calvin Wheeler of Collins
ton, Utah, who is a raiser and breed
er Of thoroughbred Poland China and
Durie Jersey. There were SO in the
car and the price paid was $1,438, or
nearly $25 per head. The prospect is
that the price of pork will be high
for long time to come, and it will
pay our farmers to embark in this
line of effort more extensively. What
Mr.. Wheeler did, any agriculturist

more so than the expenditure Of
money for river and harbor improve
ments, which often takes the form Of
private enterprise? AS a matter Of
fact, 1t has been shown conclusively
in congress that far from being un.
constitutional, the government in its
very beginning began the construction
of good roads and expended more
than 100000 on the old Cumber-
land road from Maryland to st. Louis
distance of 700 miles, and the work
was abandoned only because there
arose question authority and re-
sponsibility as to who should main
tain and repair the road, the states
or the federal government.
What does the government do for
the farmer?
I'VE spend millions annually on
the army dead loss, though
doubtless necessary.
1--WE spend some hundred millions
on the navy.
1--WE have spent 100000, 900 on
river and harbor improvements.
During ten years we spent more
than $4,000, 900, 10000, of which about
100000 went to the Agricultural
department.
But not a dollar for the promo
ton of good roads, a common bless
ing for all the people. During SO
years, of all the vast sums our gov
eminent has disbursed for one thing
or another, not a dollar has been ap-
propriated for roads.
And yet the farmers of the coun-
try compose the bulk of the popula-
ton, and last year contributed to the
national wealth some $8,000,00O,O00.
The farmer forms the foundation of
the nation. And what has the gov
eminent done for him? Nothing. The
burden is upon him. He foots the
bills, and the government takes his
money and spends it on everything
under the sun by the millions, on ev-
erything excepting what effects him
most-rOads.
1T is interesting to study the eff
feet of the automobile on the good
roads movement. Everywhere, in
spite of prejudice, the automobile
craetes sentiment for better roads.
The machine has come to stay and it
is idle to fight 1t on the ground that
1t destroys road surface. If it does,
then we must have surface that it
will not injure.
I'm the south we believe the cause
of good roads is growing more rapid
ly than in any other section of the
union. In the last six months of
1909 more than $2O,0O0,000 was ap-
propriated for highway improve
ment."

DIR. CRIsLER's ADDRESS TO THE
DRIGITES
Former BlackfO0t Man Turns Out 70
Be An Orator, May Run For
The Legislature

The state of Idaho Is shipping a
carload of elk to the state of Wyom-
ing, and in doing so, the elk were
brought out by wagon to the railroad
and shipped to Sheridan, Wyoming.
When the shipment was passing
through the city of briggs, (all rise)
which is in the Teton basin, people
turned out to gaze upon the cara
van, when the born orator of the
Cav came out of his Office, says the
Teton Valley News, and after looking
about over the likeness an early
Barnum circus and the boys and girls
and old ladies and rheumatic sires,
mounted fish key and spoke thus
ly:
"Fellow Driggsters, the insects
which you see before you are elk.
The board things they are inside of
are called cages. The elk does not
grow his own cage, but it is added by
man after the elk's birth. The way
you can distinguish one of these quad
rupeds from one of Nose Giltner's
two-year-olds Is, an elk Is bald-faced
on the wrong end.
ELK lurk in the Jackson Hole
country in vast squads. Here a per-
son can get shot at them any time
during the season, provided they go
heavily-armed with a few thousand
dollars.) The chief use of the elk
Is to make the people over here in
Idaho sigh and wish we were wealthy
enough to go and kill one.
while the elk is gentle at most
times, still boys under fifteen should
keep away from the female brand
when she is on her nest.
"The animals are being taken to
Sheridan, Wyo., and will be turned
loose on game preserve there. It
is very tedious trip and much care
must be taken, as already FIVE have
been accidentally killed on the road
from Jackson to Victor. They got
down and were trampled to death by
the others. All of them will be
yearlings in June. They were caught
with rope"
