buy their butter in quantities
outside of Kentucky.
Such is the condition over a
large part of our state. The bur.
den of this message is this-not
necessarily to use many cows but
to begin milking a few good
COWS, for success lies in the kind
of cows and not in the number.
The dairy COW yields quick re.
turns the feed given her being
returned the following day in
the form of milk to be marketed
at once. The profits from a
properly handled dairy COW are
regular. 1t is false impression
to suggest that a dairy COW re-
quires great deal of expensive
feed not grown on the home
farm. On the other hand the
following daily ration, grown en-
tirely on the farm, is most ex-
cellent; alfalfa or cowpea hay
II lbs. silage, 80 lbs; corn meal,
8 lbs. ground oats, 2 lbs. Or
We might use one of the follow
ing ratlons: 10 lbs. alfalfa or
cowpea hay; 30 lbs. silage; 4 lbs.
corn meal; / lb. cotton seed
meal; 2 lbs. wheat bran. Or corn
and COZ meal, 10 lbs. cotton
seed meal, | Id. 4; clover hay 20
lbs. These are not by any means
the only good rations that we
might use, the same time grow
ing nearly all of our feed on the
farm.
A ready market is always found
for milk, butter and sweet or
sour cream Tit is not eenven,
lent to ship daily, we would adj
wise cream production, and with
still poorer market facilities, but
ter making. The skim milk pro-
duced is one of the best feeds
possible to give to growing pigs
or calves.
The Experiment Station stands
ready at all times to give help to
the large or small dairyman, and
also at the request of any farm
er to send, without charge, an
expert to advise and help him in
dairy matters. For information
or suggestions, address

Cause for Decline of the Hog rIarket

Hogs are about three cents
low er this year than last. This
can easily be attributed TO in
crease of the hogs being shipped
into market. From March LIST,
1910 to July LIST, 1910 there were
shipped to the packers of the
great cities 6,74O,O0O while for
the same period of time this year
there were shipped to the same
markets 1885, 600 an increase
of 2,645,000 or one-thlrd more
hogs This is enough to cause
a decline in prices.

A Magnificent Hosnital.

The opening and dedication of the
enlarged Creighton Memorial St.
Joseph's hospital signalizes the pos
session by Omaha Of one of the largest
and most modern institutions of this
kind in the country. The new hospi-
tai will have facilities to furnish beds
for 800 patients, and In equipment,
arrangement and attendance will be
unsurpassed. Omaha is justly proud
of its fine hospitals and the work they
are doing to alleviate sickness and suf-
fering. With these great hospitals and
their STATS of skilled physicians, sur
geons and nurses Omaha is bound to
be looked to more and more by all the
surrounding country as the chief
haven in the west for the afiicted re-
quiring the best medical and surgical
treatment, and to furnish unusual OPP
portunities for medical education.

SURPRISING Quack Nostrums.

Advertising matter for patent
nostrums that disclose fraud In their
extravaganza claims of efficacy is to
be excluded from the United States
mails IL congress enacts a law to be
urged upon 1t by the administration
and the medicines themselves be
barred from interstate commerce.
This latter provision is suggested as a
way around the supreme courts de-
cision holding that the present pure
food and drugs act, while prohibiting
misrepresentation of ingredients, does
not prohibit Misrepresentation as to
curative powers.
President Taft, himself, has urged
congress to SO amend the pure food
law as to correct its vitality weak
points and protect "an evil which
menaces the general health of the peo-
pie and strikes at the life of the
nation"
There are legitimate and valuable
patent medicines as we'll as quack con-
coctions. The public should be safe
guarded against the fakes as against
other frauds. such as bogus stocks and
securities. If need be. by denying them
use of the government mails. The
pure food and drugs act was a long
step in the right direction, but as we
have seen, It did not accomplish all
that needed to be done toward stop
ping false representation. It might
be possible even to thwart the pro-
posed law, but It will be more diff
cult, at least.
AS to the interstate commerce fea-
ture Of the present law. it is unfor-
tunate that It was not made stronger,
although it might not be amiss to
state that three justices dissented
from the view of it's inadequacy.

Consistent.

The professional anti-saloonists at
Lincoln are bringing down criticism,
IL not malediction, upon their heads
by their refusal to submit to the YER
dict of the ballot box when the town
recently voted to go wet, and their in
terposition of purely technical obsta-
cles to prevent the execution Of that
decree. To keep the applicants from
getting licenses they have gone into
court setting up that their petition
signatures are invalid because secured
few days before the wet decree be-
came effective.
We come voluntarily to the defense
of the Lincoln anti-saloonists SO far as
attacks on their consistency are con-
cerned. When they advocated county
option last year they were for it, not
to let the people rule, but to make
more dry territory. Had they thought
that county option would result favor
ably to the vets they would have been
against it. What they were fighting
for was not the right of the majority
to decide, but their own desire to ex-
terminate the saloon. If Lincoln
should next year go dry, and the vets
resorted to similar tactics to prolong
the wet season, what a howl there
would rise, but the professional anti
saloonists would be thoroughly and
entirely consistent.

The Powder Trust Explodss.

The Powder trust may be the next
to pass in review before the United
States supreme court, for after four
years of litigation It has been declared
by the circuit court for the District of
Delaware to be an illegal combine in
restraint of trade and ordered dis
solved. IL is inconceivable of its not
taking advantage of the full gamut of
appeal, however surely established the
circuiN courts finding may appear.
This is a sweeping decision, for 1t
applies to twenty-eight out of the
forty-three component companies and
touches about every kind of gum
powder made. II affords additional
ground for faith in the rule of reason,
which seems to have governed again
in this case, although the suit was dis
missed so far as fifteen of the COM
panies were concerned because they,
we're not shown to have had connec-
ton with the trust.
Thus far no big industrial concern
commonly classed as a trust that has
come before the supreme court since
this series of prosecutions began has
escaped an order of dissolution, and it
is not fair to suppose that the Powder
trust will have smoother sailing.

Democratic Insinosritv.

The rejection by the democrats in
the house of the constitutional
amendment for election of United
States senator's by direct vote Of the
people as passed by the senate with
the Bristow amendment is a self-in-
dictment of their insinoerity. The
Bristow amendment, it should be un-
derstood, does not /add anything to
direct election as popularity demanded,
but strikes OH the rider put on by the
house democrats to deprive the fed
eral government of the control over
senatorial elections which 1t now pos
sesses. As pointed out by Congress-
man Norris. the democrats have tried
to make capital by advocating the
election of senators by direct vote,
committing themselves repeatedly to
this proposition in state and national
platform pledges, only when con-
fronted with their first opportunity to
redeem. to repudiate them instead.
The specific declaration was first
Incorporated into a democratic ma
tional platform in 1900. as follows:
We favor an amendment to the federal
constitution providing for the election Of
United States senators by direct vote Of
the people,
In 1904 the plank in the demo-
cratic national platform was simpli-
fled to read.
We favor election of United States sena-
tors by the direct vote Of the people
In the last democratic national
platform, promulgated at Denver in
1908, the declaration is as follows:
We favor election of United States sena-
tors by direct vote of the people, and re-
gard this reform as the gateway to other
national reforms
In no case have the democrats de-
clared that they favor direct election
Of senators on condition that the
states are given exclusive control over
every phase of their election, yet that
Ia the proviso they have put in to
Justify their refusal to accept the SEN
ate proposition shorn Of all side is
sues, and without ENHANCEMENT with
other questions.
Most people will believe with Judge
Norris, that IL the democrats had
meant what they said all these years
they would have concurred in the sem
ate resolution. Their failure to do
this forces the conclusion that they
have not meant what they said and
are now seeking to embarrass the re-
publicans, who are conscientiously en-
deavoring to pass this proposed
amendment on to the people by whom
it has been demanded. When at last
we have a senate willing to respond
to this demand a democratic house
prefers to close this gateway of
other national reforms" unless they
are permitted to revive and
strengthen their ancient and obsolete
states rights.

Why DistOrt HistorvI

The bellwether OF the Water board,
more than any other one person, is re-
sponsible for the ss.26o.OO0 mortgage

We take 1t that We are up against 1t

which this same water spouter assured
us could be had for 100000. But
that does not warrant such willful dis

he saddled upon us, was framed In de-

point the appraisers. but on the con-

Hill and Canadian Extension.

Expert opinion now questions that
Mr.. Hlrs authorized issue of $780,
100000 bonds, of which the first
$40, OO0,0 900 have been sold, has solely
or chiefly to do with the Burlington,
but inclines to the theory that It looks
rather to a Hill invasion of Canada
when reciprocity shall have become q
fact. The Financial World admits
that the average observer is quite
likely to accept the story given out
project, but adds that "as this story
was inspired from high quarters, it IL
possible that 1t was put forth more to
divert attention from the true plan
than to present faithful portrayal Of
the real situation"
Great Northern and Northern Pa
cific have both hit high marks on the
New York Stock exchange since these
bonds were announced, and that, con-
nected with Mr.. Hills ceaseless Wig
ilance in supporting Canadian reci-
procity and his known intention soon
to begin extending his lines across the
Dominion, leads quite naturally to the
belief that his bond issue is to cover
the cost Of that campaign. So far as
the Burlington is concerned. the bonds
would be of a refunding character,
and refundiAg bonds do not have the
effect upon stocks that this issue has
had. All these circumstances lead the
Financial World to conclude: I'VE,
therefore. prefer to believe that the
real cause of the boom In these stocks
lies in the direction indicated-Cana-
dian invasion project"
Being a native Of Canada, Mr.. Hill
might favor reciprocity because OF
that, with no other impelling reason
but even without q plan to invade the
Dominion, his interests probably
would derive much beneht from Gloss
trade relations. 1t Is quite reasona,
BILE to believe that he has the extern.
sion plan in mind as an outgrowth, Il
not an argument. for reciprocity.
