A MAN FOR THE MEASURES NEEDED.

Its one of the loltiest offices of a
newspaper to advocate in season and
out such measures as cOnscientiouSly
appear to it after careful investiga-
ton and mature consideration, to be
expedient for the public good. In
seasons of political convulsicn it be
hooves each journal to select such q
man as comes nearest representing
the views it has declared for, or is
most likely to be fitted to be used as
a means through which to procure
them, and then with might and
main, but fairly and with due regard
for political utilization, for his NOM
ination or election as the case may be.
Men are necessary for the promo
ton of measures. This article aims
to bring out thoroughly our attitude
IN that line of thought. We believe
that our convictions pretty well tally
with those o. Hon. G. Lee Crum,
whose address to editors we recently
published. Possibly we have swung
out little wider into the considera-
ton of the idea than his address
covered, but anyway be that as it
may. we should all have our persua-
sions as to public duty and work
them out in practical affairs.
And now we come to the cruX OF
this article. We believe will all the
ardor of our being, that in Mr.. Har-
risOn The people of this district, have
a man who can best serve as a unit
in the forces that should be gathered
in the halls of Congress to curb the
vested interests or predatory wealth
He has proved himself time and again
incorruptibly on the side of the peo-
pie and can be relied upon not to per
secute but to energise for the l9gisla-
ton OF the class we speak of to their
proper sphere in the industrial eX-
plotation of this country and elm
mate them from the Iawmaking halls
If our lands.

Prize Fights Must Go Forever.

Bryan S CommOner
If we are to make real progress in
the education of children we must
sooner or later drop the prize fight
from the list of our practices. 1t we
are to make genuine progress, in the
effort to perpetuate peace between
nations, we must make some pro
gress in the effort to maintain peace
between individuals.
1t is not difficult to understand
why men become worked up over a
prize fight, Such contests stir the
worst sort of passions in men and are
even more harmful to the bystanders
and the reading public than they are
to the principa $ in he Sght.

The Heavy Tax Sad Roads Exact.

Sou Famr Gizrtlc (StarksvilIr }
One Of The heaviest taxes farmers
pay in maiy section, is Tie tax IN
posed by bad roads in the loss IF
time, the W u" and tear of vehicles
md the breaking down of horses.
Add to this the Ioso III value of
real estate bul derlug on Dad road
Is shown by the immediate rise in
value of real estate when good roads
are made in any diatr,c'.
Tie A tlanta Constitution cites the
case of farmer in Georgia who re-
fused to contribute Il strip off his
farm for II good road because he did
not believe in good roads on pr .iple
But the rold was made al the Slme,
and that farmer was offered ten dol
lars an acre more for his 300 acres
than ne had asked Before the road
W IS built. Queer sort of principles,
his.
Wherever a good road is built
there is usually no more kicking,
bat people off the road soon want
one in their neighborhood. so that
one well built road is the means for
getting more, as has been the case
IN Mecklenhurg, County North Car
DINA, where good roads are the rule
rather e. an the exception, and the
people are making more tf them all
the time
TLore is 80 better investment a
farmer car axe than a liberal tax
for first-class road.

Where are drunkards made? Does
high license "cut OUT the dangerous
dramshops, or are prohibition
dives worse than $1,000 buffets2
B. c. Jordan in a recent issue of the
Portland Evening Express, one of
the leading daily papers of Maine,
says:
Where are drunkards made?
No man, beast, bird, or fish has
a natural appetite for intoxicants.
This taste has to be acquired by prac-
tice, and sometimes by long practice.
Why and where is this unnatural ap-
petite learned? The young man learns
it that he may be like his compan-
ions; that he may be social; that he
may not be odd.
HE never learns it alone. He
does not learn it about his work or
on the street.
'He does not take his first drink
in some low, dirty kitchen dive or
from some pocket peddler.
''The present saloon, with it's at
tractive surroundings, its lively and
jovial company, is where he learns it.
He would never think of going
into some dark alley either alone or
with others to find a drink, for he
doesn't want to drink.
lie doesn't 60 - =. pleasant sa-
loon to get a drink He goes for a
lively and jovial company, the
stori 5, jokes, songs, etc. Being
there and enjoying the pleasant sur
roundings, he feels compelled to do
as the others do. He doesn't want
to be called odd. He would feel
mean to receive all this from the sa-
loon without any return.
His friends treat him, and he
treats his friends. Here, for these
reasons and not for the love of it,
he takes his first drink. And this,
repeated month after month and year
after year, forms the fatal appetite
and habit.
Then he graduates from the sa
loon and patronizes the low dives.
One first-class saloon-the more
respectable the more dangerous
will educate more drunkards than a
hundred dives. The devil cares more
for the open saloon than for all his
other agencies on earth.
please remember there are more
low dives under license than under
prohibition

Temperature for churninq.

The proper temperature for churn-
ing is the lowest temperature which
can be used and produce proper gran
ules within a reasonable time. A rea
sonable time is from thirty to forty
five minutes, and fifty minutes or an
hour is not too long. The colder the
temperature, the better the granules
and the less fat lost. The real churn-
ing temperature is the temperature
at which the butter breaks. This is
from two to four degrees higher than
the starting temperature, from the
friction of the machine. If the gran
ules form in less than % minutes, you
may be certain that the temperature
was higher than it should have been.
If the butter comes in ID minutes or
less, q large amount Of fat is lost in
the buttermilk and the butter will be
soft and greasy in texture. Ordinar-
lily from 5 degrees to go degrees is
about the right temperature.

DAIRY AND I f..
BCRE,AME,RY.
SYMPTOMS OF EGoTIsM.
Cattle Are Most Susceptible to This
Dread Disease.

Dread Disease.
Ergot is a fungus that forms on
the heads of grasses and grains.
The ergotized seeds several times
larger than the natural seeds, are
hard, black and slightly curved. Rye,
blue grass, oats and red-top may con-
tain the ergot. Ergot is most COM
monty developed on rich soils, in hot
seasons, especially when considerable
moisture is present.
Cattle are most susceptible to the
disease. When eaten, ergot produces
a contraction and finally a closing of
the blood vessels in the extremities Of
the body-limbs, tail and ears-with
the result that the parts below the
line of obstruction die and later drop
off. Pregnant cows may abort. 1t is
not uncommon to see a steer or COW
with but one toe on a foot, or the alb
sence of the entire foot.
The first symptom of ergotism is a
slight lameness in one or more limbs,
later a dark line forms around the
limb somewhere between the knee and
the hOOf. The line deepens into
crack containing pus. This crack
shows the line of separation between
the dead and the living tissues of the
limb.
The affected animals should have a
change Of feed and should then be
given physic to get rid of any ergot
in the intestines. Then give tannin
in one-half drachm doses twice daily
for few days to destroy the ergo&
not absorbed. To increase the cir
culation in the extremities, choral n.y.
drate, in one-half ounce doses, twice
daily, is often beneficial. Affected
parts should be bathed with as hot
water as the animal can stand; after
this apply disinfectants to the skin,
such as zenoleum Ca teaspoonfuI to a
quart of water). When the foot has
started to come off, nothing can be
done for the animal, and it is best to
put it out of misery.-C. L. Barnes, d.

Cause OF Bloody MIX.

Bloody milk may be caused by a
variety of conditions. DR.. Schroeder
declares that some claim that the COW,
fighting flies, kicking and throwing
the body to and fro, will tend to rup-
ture the small blood vessels and thus
cause the trouble. Others hold that
the steady diet of green, succulent
food and perhaps the arrangement of
the blood caused by certain weeds,
bring on this trouble The latter
opinion the doctor is inclined to be-
heve, for it has been his observation
that many cases can be cured by
changing the pasture or changing the
feed. eve have cured cases Of
bloody milk" he goes on to say, "by
giving sulphur and saltpeter mixed
half and half in the feed. Whether
or not this is sure cure l can not
say, but it might be worth trying"

1t is the duty of newspaper to

in our report of the speaking on the

In the opinion of this editor, HE

that he is best fitted to represent
