MADE STIRRING ADDRESS AT

THR0NG OF PEOPLE.

to Fortify Panama Canal-Urged the

Theodore Roosevelt was the guest of
New Orleans Saturday night and the
city outdone itself to make him well
come. 1t is the colonel's first visit to
New Orleans since October 16, 1905.
lie came then as president of the
United States, defying the protests of
the rest of the country, for New Or
leans was recovering from an epidemic
OF yellow fever. He spent but five
hours in the city, leaving at midnight
for Houston, Texas
lie went at once to his hotel on ar
rival, and then was hurried to the
French opera house, where his address
was delivered. Immediately after the
meeting he attended banquet. given
in his honor, and then rushed to the
train.
On the trip from Jackson, Miss, to
New Orleans Colonel Roosevelt was
forced to make talks from the rear
platform of his car.
His Address.
In his address Mr.. Roosevelt spoke
simply and clearly on the mooted cues
ton of Panama canal fortifcation.
without bantering words of pity for
those who could not see the necessity
for such a safeguard. He pointed out
that there were only two nations in
the world that are bound by treaty to
respect the neutrality of the canal
Great Britain and Panama. No other
nation is in the least bound to recog-
nize the neutrality of the canal. In
deed, failure to fortify would bring
upon, this country the derision of the
world. In time of war any nation
would have the right to seize the water
way.
Mr.. Roosevelt even went so far as
to declare that, Notifications lacking.
the canal in time of war could be very
easily turned into an instrument for
the ruin of the United States.
Gateway City.
The ex-president spoke for nearly an
hour.
Facetious references to the criticisms
put upon him while president for un-
his attitude seemed to win with the
audience.
Mr.. Roosevelt touched also upon pri-
vate, corporate and public morality and
corruption. He gave little talk which
was sermon, in which he embraced
individuals and corporations, the sue
cessful scoundrel and the social outcast.
He concluded with a stirring appeal to
the people of New Orleans to set for
ward every energy toward assisting her
part of the country In a movement to
stimulate trade.
New Orleans, he declared, is destined
to become probably the greatest sea
port town in the western hemisphere.
His Tribute to Davis.
Jackson, Miss.-Colonel Theodore
Roosevelt barred his head in respectful
attitude before the portrait of Jeffer-
son Davis in the hall of fame and spoke
in kindly words of the chieftain of the
confederacy.

Season.
The Northwestern league schedule

War Department s Invitation for Them
to Participate in War Maneuvers Re

officers of the organized militia are
giving prompt response to the war de-
partment IS invitation to proceed in the
military operations planned along the
southern frontier. Already 1909 officers
of the National Guard have accepted
the invitation. This represents re-
sponses from only 81 states.
Illinois stands first in the number of
officers accepting the invitation, 1875
being offered; New York ranks second,
with 16S, and the announcement that
more acceptances are to follow; Cali
forpia third, with 1853, and from the
far-off territory of Hawaii come ac-
ceptances from five.
These Accept.
The number of officers who have ac-
cepted the invitation in the various
states are: California, 1873; Hawaii, s;
Maine, 3; Massachusetts, 90; Missis-
sippi, SO; Missouri, 1Os; Montana, IL;
New Hampshire, 9; New York, 16s, and
more to follow; Ohio, %; Oregon, 81;
South Dakota, 20; Tennessee, IS; Tex
as, 100; Vermont, 4 Washington, 81:
West Virginia, SO; Wisconsin, 6.
These reports, it is said, indicate that
the total number of acceptances will be
more than the army now being mobo-
lized at San Antonio can accommodate
at one time. 1t is possible that all the
officers who accept will be given an op-
portunity to go into the field by ro-
tating them.
Can Not Order Militia Out.
In contradiction of rumors that the
citizen soldiers of the United States
are to be called for active service. Of
ficers of the army point out that such
action would be impossible because
there is no contingency, as prescribed
by law, which would warrant it. The
Dick law" enacted eight years ago,
prescribes the constitutional causes au-
thorizing the president to call out the
militia. This act, carrying out the in
tent of the constitution, enables the
president to call to arms the militia
of the states, territories and District
of Columbia to "repel an invasion of
foreign nation, to suppress a rebel
lion in the United States, or to enable
him to execute the laws of the union. -
AS the country now faces none of the
emergencies, it is added, it would be
impossible for the president to call out
the militia.
The army division, which is assem-
bling at San Antonio, Texas, is officially
designated by the war department as
- the maneuver division -

DAIRY POINTS

When you make butter that pleases yoar
customers you never have any trouble get
ting the top prices.
Successful dairymen do not need to have
the gospel OF the separator preached 10 them,
but there many farmers with a half a
dozen or such matter OF cows who try to
get along without this valuable machine, think
ing that It would not pay them TO invest in
one Il is mistake. II you have only six
cows II would pay you to sell one, il you
cannot otherwise raise the money and buy
a separator This is proposition worth think
ing about.
The good dairyman knows his cows He
can not reach the highest point OF success II
be Is ignorant OF their Individual qualities
He must know which members Of the herd re-
turn profit on the cost OF their keep. Many
the owner did not know what cows were
profitable and what were mere board
ers.
Keep the stock in good condition through
the winter. II is folly to allow the animals
to run down in flesh during the cold wealth
er. It Is a species OF cruelty to animals to
do 50. and Il Is also quite Improbable II
dition all the time.
Look well after the manure. II Is worth
money. and often. very often spells the sue

the profits Of many a dairy farm are wasted

The other morning there was ice in my

the forepart of the night. II is sure
enough hard wintry weather.
Because the peach crop was so uncer-

a0.o00 trees dug up and turned the land
over TO tenants to put IN corn and cot
ton. There Is simply no accounting for
February or March weather in the gable
end OF Georgia. II IL keeps cold until
the middle OF March we may have fruit.
II II is warm in January and February.
as IL has been this year. then we will
certainly have no peaches. Down in
southwest Georgia there is a better
chance but / apprehend this blizzard
weather has also given those peach grow
ers a cold visit.
We will have no plums. but we may
have wild blackberries and dewberrles.
but that is not a guaranteed prediction.
There were such quantities of fruit cam
ned and preserved last year that we may
ind ourselves reasonably well supplied.
but the farmers can make good money
this year with canteloupe and water
melon patches. A hint TO the wise is
sufficient. This hard weather certainly
gets a whack at my rheumatism. l hope
this will be our last hard spell.
