CANADA AND THE INVASION"
ISioux CITY Journal

If Canada wants to restrict imnl!-
grafton from the United States the
United States can stand it. Every i'm
migrant from the United states takes
money with him to pay for his land ana
start its development. There is plenty
of reasonably cheap land on this side of
the border 1t will not hurt the United
States to keep fer young men at home
using their money and energy de-
velop:ng domestic soil, paying taxes in
to American treasures buying the
products of American manufacturers
and investing their profits in American
enterprises. The encouragement that
reciprocity gave to this very emigra-
ton movement was responsible for a
good deal of the opposition to 1t in this
country. Those who liked the general
idea Of freer trade with Canada did not
like the idea of Offering special induce
ments to our young men to expatriate
themselves and their money and join
in developing a rival country and sup
porting an alien government. II Can
ada will now erect barriers to check the
flow Of immigration to her western ag-
ricultural regions there probably will
be more applause from this than from
the other side Of the boundary. 1t is.
Of course. highly improbable that Can
ada will be so foolish as TO try to check
the coming of geese that lay golden
eggs. The talk of II is based on the
theory that the American invasion of
westernLCanada will in time result in
the Americanization Of that section and
manufacture future sentiment for
either reciprocity or annexation. Fears
in this direction are not supported by
developments among the hundreds of
thousands Of American settlers now in
western Canada. From reports that
come back home these new Canadian
citizens are not at all displeased with
Canadian government as they have
found il. Many of them contrast it
favorahly with our own.

NOT A DEADLE AFFAIR.
Newton Herald

When a democrat greets a distin-
guished republican official. or vice
versa, or a white man shakes hands
with a colored man or a japanese, 1t is
still a matter Of general daily news
paper remark. Why not a matter OF
course? Are we to dispense with all
the amenities and remain savages?
When leading plutocrat builds an adj
dition to his stables or dons new ap-
parel, the reporter - always on the
spot to record the fact-but II the ordi-
nary neighborhood occurrences are
gathered UP by the country press. it is
a frequent topic for ridicule by city
contemporaries. The same eagerness
for personalities prompts all these
chronicles of passing small events. and
it is no more ridiculous in one case
than in the other. The daily press is
just as frivolous as the humber family
journal and for the, same reason. Let
the pot stop calling the kettle black.

THE PRESIDENTIAL PRIMARY.

Everyone seems TO agree that Iowa
choice as to the presidency could with
advantage to the party, be left to
primary vote. " hat is true in Iowa is
true III the nation. President TAFT
could MAKE a ten strike by advocating
national primary election for the
purpose OF selecting presidential cam
didates Not only would he strike a
popular chord in so doing and thus
greatly strengthen himself with people.
but he would conserve his selfish in
terests and bring his party to united
and harmonious action. No man would
care for the nomination Of his party If
he were not acceptable TO majority OF
the members.

Will consume larger quantities Of It
In feeding homegrown feeds we
must feed such foods in a practical
way, as will induce tho cows to eat
more.
The more easily digested the ration
the larger the milk flow. A certain
amount of energy Is required to pre-.
pare these foods for assimilation. In
seeding coarse fods we find this is q
large per cent
Tender pasture grass Is more easily
digested than dry fodder. Again we
see that s~ucculent foods are more
easily digested than dry folders ;that
early cut hay Is more easily digested
than late cut hay and that grain and
concentrates are more easily digested
than hay and oarse folders.
We a make a balanced ration
from corn ensilage and alfalfa hay,
but such a ration contains an excess
Of coarse fiber and requires too great
an expenditure Of energy to digest and
Rssimilate 1t.
Such a ration may be greatly i'm
prov,1 by the addition of a few
pounds Of concentrates.
Cows that are giving milk must
have an abundance of protein. The
more protein we feed up to a certain
point the larger the milk now. 1t is
the amount of food over and above
that required to maintain the body
that goes to stimulate the milk pro
