Incidents of Cruelty Horrible When

Madero, Jr., from his special peace
envoy in Mexico City, stating that the
resignation of Vice President Corral

Three Mexican suffragettes, espous-
ing the Socialistic cause of the rebels

streets here exhorting the populace
and what soldiers remained after yes
terday's hegira southward to desert
the Madero cause
Madero, they declared, does not rep

does.
Senor Madero was advised of the
activities of the three women, but he

FRANCHISE MEASURE
Will Be Voted Upon Again
This Week.
palladium Specially


Indianapolis, Feb. THAT the three
votes needed to pass the city franchise
referendum bill are now assured, is
the belief of Sen. CRUDE, the author,
who still has great hopes for the
measure The bill failed to pass for
want of constitutional majority, with
a vote of % in favor and 10 against.
Senator CRUDE names as men who are
now ready to support the bill several
of the most weighty Democrats. He
believes the bill will lose the support
of none of those who formerly favored
it.
Senator Stotsenberg, Democratic
floor leader. who opposed it and thus
gained a permanent reserved seat in
the bipartisan combine, has consider
ed making a speech. which may ex-
plain his position. Or instead of this.
he may look with silent disregard up
on public criticisms.
The author of the bill was i'll when
his name was called on third reading
the last time. 1t has now been passed
and this would defer the consideration
of the bill, but he may be granted a
chance to use his privilege under the
circumstances and to call the bill up
on his former turn. In this case it
will come up early in the week.

Crane on Clean Milk.

The first lecture today in the Do
nestle Science department was on
Clean Milk" by Prof. Perry Crane.
He said that the value of milk lies in
its composition, purity, state OF pres
ervation and preparation. Based
alone on it's composition" the speaker
declared, I'VE find quart of milk
supplying practically as much protein
and energy as three-fourths pound of
beef or eight average eggs. In addi-
ton to this clean milk has many
points in it's favor such as being very
palatable, not requiring preparation
for use. the many ways it may be
served, etc.
There is no article however that
deteriorates more rapidly than milk
when not properly cared for. conse-
quently the necessity of producing
milk under sanitary conditions arises.
Dirty milk not only has an undesira-
BILE flavor; will not keep for any
length of time and is not attractive or
palatable: but also dangerous as a
carrier of contagious disease germs

to guard against the injurious ones
We must adopt methods that will re-

TO do this we must first have healthy
cows, clean barns, clean mixers
clean utensils, care in milking, care

This can be most easily accomplished

rinse with boiling water and drain and

If cream is being produced by
means of a separator it is imperitive
that the separator be kept clean and
to do this it must be washed after ev
cry separation. The flavors intro

an advanced price for fat where they
can get quality of cream that will

only necessary that we produce clear

health and sanitation but also as

Wheat Improvement.

The principle lecture OF the after.
noon was on Wheat improvement by
Prof. G. I. Christie. He stated that
Indiana stands first in the production
OF soft winter wheat in the Union,
there being over 100000 acres grown
every year. The average is 1873 bush.
els per acre while in older countries
like Germany and Great Britain the
average is 2S and 80 bushels respec.
lively. Ii was shown by statistics
that 1t cost $500 per acre to grow
wheat and al this rate Mr.. Christie
stated many farmers are losing mon
ey besides the use of the ground. To
produce more wheat one of the fac
tors necessary is good seed, of a good
variety. He showed the results OBJ
tanned on the Purdue farm by the use
of the different varieties and said that
only the large. plump, heavy seed OF
the best variety should be used. This
large seed can be obtained by the use
OF tanning mill or the elevator man
will fan the seed for the farmer in
case he has no mill of his own. Fer.
tiliZer has a great deal to do with OBJ
tanning a good stand of wheat. He
advised the use of barn yard manure
and where this was not obtainable
in sufficient quantity it should be
supplemented by a commercial fer.
tilizer containing two per cent nitro.
gen: four per cent. potasch: and eight
per cent phosphoric acid.
Many of the farmers seemed to
think that the continuous use of com
mercial fetilizer would kill the land
and Prof. Christie cited to them the
ROthemstead. England, experiment
In 1852 a farm was divided into plots
and each plot treated differently un.
til 1902. when 1t was found that the
plot untreated gave an average yearly
growth of wheat of 1871 bushels per
acre; the plot treated with barn yard
manure gave an average of 1851 bush.
els per acre: and the plot treated
with commercial fertilizer gave an av.
erage of 81 bushels per acre. The
fertilizer. which consisted of 2 per
cent nitrogen: per cent phosphoric
acid: and four per cent potash. was
applied at the rate of 1000 pounds per
acre and at the end of the experiment
the plot was yielding many more bush.
els than 81 while the untreated plot
was giving less than Is bushels. Elk.
periments in Indiana have shown that
best results are obtained where three
hundred pounds of the fertilizer are
sown to the acre. Prof. Christie said
Sinking smut, he said. can be cas-.
lily controlled. He said all that is
necessary is that before the, seed is
planted 1t should be treated with a So
luton of formalin Gao per cent pure)
at the rate of one pound of formalin
to fifty gallons of water. Another en-.
envy of the wheat plant is the Hessian
Fly and this. he said. can be best con.
trolled by late planting. In Indiana
IL the wheat Is planted as late as Sep.
TENDER 25th by the time the young
plant has grown up the Hessian Fly
will have died off.

Halleck Enters Bill Provid-

Indiana County.
Palladium Specially

Indianapolis, Feb. IA tuberculosis
hospital for every county is the dream
of Senator Abraham Halleck of Rens-
selaer. who introduced bill Monday
allowing counties to establish such
aSylums.
The commissioners under the new
plan may levy taxes or borrow money
to purchase suitable sites and erect
buildings. Fash hospital, it is plan
ned. is to be under a board of five
managers, two of them physicians,
serving five year terms without pay
except travelling expenses. Failure of
any manager to attend three consecu-
tive monthly meetings is regarded as
creating vacancy on the board. The
superintendent of the hospital must
be a graduate of medical college and
must have been practicing physician
at least three years.
The hospitals are to be under the
inspection of the state board OF
health and the board of state chart
ties. No special powers over the hos
pita. are given the state boards, how.
ever.
The hospitals are to receive any tu-
berculosis patient who has been resi-
dent of the county one year and the
county is to pay the expense If the
patient or his relatives are unable to
pay the whole or Il part of it. Pa.
tients may be sent in from other coun-
ties if their township trustees provide
the public funds covering the per CAPT
ia cost of keeping a patient in the
hospital and a reasonable rate Of in
terest on the cost of buildings.
