MADRID, July 21.-Feartne
the personal threats made against
him recently by Deputy Pablo Tg-
lesias from the floor of the Span
ish parliament, Former Premier
Maura is under guard, which has
been placed about him by Prime
Minister Canalejas. Wherever he
goes Maura is guarded. The po-
lice follow him when he drives
out and his house is under con-
stant surveillance.
Maura, 1t is popularity said, Is
the best hated man in Spain.
Though the government would
like to take Deputy. Iglesias to
task for the threat, 1t realizes that
this would be dangerous, as his
opinions evidently are those OF
the masses. The government Is
cOntenting itself with protecting
the former premier and leaving
Iglesias alone.

TURKEY RAISING.
Young Turkeys Should Not Be Allowed
to Shift for Themselves.

| While it is true that as soon as tur-
keys begin to shoot the red" they are
comparatively safe from the troubles
of early life, 1t is not at all good poll
icy to neglect them and allow them to
| take their own course without care
during the remainder of the season.
| The way to make the most money
from turkeys, says writer in Poul-
| try, is to secure the largest possible
frames in the beginning, and then
cover these big frames with as heavy a
coat of flesh as possible to get on
them.
Under ordinary conditions, turkeys
will find living in the fields without
much attention from the owner. They
have a faculty of going about in mea-
dows and pastures, searching for in
sect food, without in any way dam
aging the crops. Their constant search
| for insects makes them valuable to
| farmers, because their appetite for
such pests leads them to destroy thou
sands of the farmers worst enemies.
Because they can find a living for
| themselves the owner should not con-
slider that they need no other food be-
vond what the fields afford them.
| Growing turkeys should not be al
| lowed to go single day without grain
| feed of some kind. They should be
given every evening liberal feed of
grain, of which corn should be the
smaller part This evening feed of
grain keeps the young turkeys grow
ing rapidly instead of making slow
progress during the hot weather 1t
also gets them in the habit of coming
to the house every night, and they
sleep at home instead of on the most
convenient fence, as they often do
when not fed daily during the sum-
mer.
When turkeys are brought up to be
familiar with their owners they grow
much better, because they are not
worried at the sight of human being,
and live quietly, growing more rapidly
because of their lack of excitement
II milk is available it will pay to
make cottage cheese for them every
day in the year. The curd made by
heating sour milk or buttermilk is
very rich in those elements that go to
make large frames and heavy flesh,
and there is hardly any other way by
which so much value may be extract
| ed from waste milk.-Farm Progress.

Renting a Farm.

The greater risk is always on the
landlords side in the rental of prop
erty, for the reason that he is putting
his property into the possession and
care of another, and that other is not
infrequently a person of doubtful util-
ity. These rules and cautions may
well be observed.
Trust to no verbal lease. Let it be
in writing, signed and sealed. Its
stipulations then become commands
and can be enforced Let it be signed
in duplicate, so that each party may
have, one copy, the other the orr
ginal.
Insert such covenants as to re-
pairs, manner of use and in restraint
of waste as the circumstances call for.
AS to particular stipulations, examine
leases drawn by those who have had
long experience in renting farms, and
adopt such as meet your case.
There should be covenants against
assignment and under or sub-lettlng.
If the tenant is not financially res
ponsible, make the rent PAYABLE in
installments. A covenant that the
crops shall remain the lessons till the
lessee's contracts with him have been
fulfilled is valid against the lessee's
creditors. In the ordinary case OF
renting farms on shares, the courts
will treat the crops as the Joint prop
erty of lord and tenant, and thus pro-
tect the formers rights.
Every lease should contain stipula-
lions for forfeiture and re-entry in
case of non-payment or breach of any
covenants.
To prevent tenants committing
waste, the courts will grant an injunc'
| ton.
Above all, one should be careful ii

RAILROAD FARMING.
Palatial Special Trains Bear Farm
Products.

Railroad farming received the stamp
OF approval this year in New York
when the two experimental farms OPP
Grated by the Long Island Railroad
company received "a first, 20 second
and six third prizes at the Riverhead
fair, the American Institute OF New
York City and the Huntington Horti-
cultural and Agricultural Society ex-
hfbit. The exhibits shown this year
evidence the fact that Long Island
farmers are adopting modern scien-
tific practices which, until the Long
Island Railroad established it's expert
ment stations, has never been used on
East Long Island.
In August, 1905, President Ralph
Peters of the Long Island Railroad,
purchased IL acres of waste land at
Wading river, known as Experiment
al Station No. /, and In August, 1906,
the railroad purchased 70 acres at
Medford, known as Experimental Sta
ton No. O." The trees and underbrush
were cleared of the II acres at Wad-
ing river and 10 acres of the 70 at
Medford, and demonstration farms
which today are known throughout
the country--began their existence
The old settlers poked fun at the rail-
road officers, called them book farm
ers" and said that nothing could be
grown on land good only for salt
ponds and pine barrens. At that
| time antique methods were used by
the farmers on the east end of Long
Island and the crops produced we're
poor. County fairs drew small crowds
| and the agricultural exhibits we're
scarce and inferior
The fair at Riverhead this year had
a record attendance, and the exhibit
floor space was greatly over-taxed.
The grade OF the products displayed
gave evidence OF the fact that Long
Island farmers have been converted
to the necessity for spraying their
plants to prevent insects and disease.
Dynamite manufacturers showed how
the practice OF pulling stumps out Of
the land by horsepower was a relic,
and that the labor saving method used
by the Long Island Railroad in clear
ing its farm had been adopted by Long
Island farmers generally.

PACIFIC NORTHWEST NOTES.

There are is million acres of unoc-
cupfed land in central and southern

In Portland. The race into the central
part OF the state by the Great North

fident of beating Portland by $4,000,
but may be disappointed when the re-
suits are made known next September.
Spokane and Tacoma each have more
than 100000. and it is a question
which one will take second rank in
the state of Washington. The smaller
cities Of the northwest have all grown
so rapidly in ten years that it is i'm
possible to even guess what order they
will appear in when ranked according
to population.
