UNCLE SAM TO RAISE HORSES
war Department Plans to Have Gov.
ernment Buy 100 Stations to
Breed Cavalry Animals.

Uncle Sam Is going into the horse
breeding business. If the plans OF the
war department are carried out, the
government will purchase 100 stal.
lions. These will be assigned to a
number Of stations throughout the
country In charge of experienced ex.
cavalrymen as stud-grooms, and will
be bred to suitable mares, wherever
these may be found The government
will have an option on the foals when
three years old, at a price agreed on
before the animal is bred.
Two thousand cavalry horses will
be available by this plan every year
This Is the number of remounts neces.
sary for the present strength Of the
army. The constantly decreasing
number of people that ride horseback,
and the displacement of the horse car
by the trolley, make this step neces-
sary, If the cavalry Is to continue to
be part Of the standing army. What
the department would do for remounts
in case OF war Is hard to say. Five
hundred fresh horses a day was the
quota called for In one year of the
Civil war.

RAISING CATTLE FOR BEEF
Cattle Should Be Selected From Such
Breeds as Shorthorns, Hero.
fords, Angus and Galloway.
CBy w. B. RICHARDs)


Many farmers continue to raise
cattle for market for beef purposes
from stock that do not possess any
blood OF the beef breed, and conse-
uuently they lack what is known as
the beef type. 1t is impossible to
produce beef economically from cat.
tie Of the dairy type, or even from
cattle that possess any considerable
amount of this blood.
To produce an animal Of the beef
type It Is necessary to use the beef
breeds OF cattle, such as the Short
horns, Herefords, Aberdeen Angus.
and Galloway. Cattle of this breed,
ing put on flesh very much more rap
Idly and Of better quality.
A beef animal could be described in
a general way as low down compact
blocky animal. He must have short
blocky head, wide breast, deep
wide chest, a broad back, good
spring Of rib, heavy full thighs. He
must have a pliable mellow skin, for
this quality indicates a good feshing
tendency.

Hunnewell, Kan.-Mrs. Ella Wilson,
the newly-elected mayor of this city,
for the first time since her election
consented to explain her plans for
cleaning up the municipal govern
ment, which in her prediction
speeches she declared to be full of
graft and Godlessness."
Mrs. Wilson's first announcement
was that she would appoint Mrs.
Rosie E. Osbourne, defeated candidate
for police Judge, to be superintendent
of police, while Mrs. E. E. Hilten,
who ran for town councillor and failed.
will be appointed city clerk.
While Mrs Wilson did not specific
ally admit it, the declaration is made
that under a compromise plan male
officers will be elected from the high
er municipal Offices entirely and that
for two years at least Hunnewell will
be completely under a woman's ad-
ministration.
There Is no doubt OF the radical In.
tentions of the women. Mrs. Wilson
has declared that the Occasional"
liquor traffic will at once be stopped
and bootleggers will be sent to jail
Poolrooms must pay license and all
grating Is to be abolished
Mrs. Wilson has jumped into world
wide fame In day because she Is the
second woman mayor ever elected in
the United States and the first woman
ever given a chance to rule a city
surrounded with women officials to do
her bidding. The first woman mayor
in this country was Mrs. s. NJ Salter,
who was elected mayor of Argonia,
Kan, "a years ago.
Here is the first public utterance
of Mrs. Wilson since her election. In
1t she outlines her policies and aims
and voices her determination to elm

you would save the fruit of your or.

days of labor of men and women are

too slowly. Not one-half of the fruit
crop Of the country is sound when
taken from the trees. The loss runs

Fine Sentiment.

In an English home at Winchester
we find above the Intel of the door
this charming sentiment: Farewell

Lord keep thee in thy going out and
coming In" We are all familiar with
the Italian word "salve," meaning well
come, that is found quite often in the
vestibules of hotels or public houses
where meals are served. 1t Is not an
advertisement for salve, as a man
from the country with more money
than brains told his wife.

FARMERS USING MORE CHECKS
gratifying Information Secured From
Government Sources Regarding
Banks as Depositories.

from a government source comes
he gratifying information that more
armers are using the banks as places
or depositing their funds than ever
before. This Is a marked indication
that tho farmers are becoming better
husiness men. incidentally it also in
dlcates that they have more money to
Put into the banks.
The use OF checks in business Is not
alone a great convenience and a safe
guard in the matter of receipts, but
tends toward dignity and order. And
this we regard as of prime importance,
particularly among farmers whose
business Is too often conducted
loosely.
A clear idea as to how little real
money Is used in business way can
be had from the following figures COM
PILED by the National Monetary COM
mission:
Out Of the total retail deposits in
hve states amounting to $4,894,1S1,
the proportion of checks was 1928 per
cent; currency, 21.S per cent. and
specie 5.4 per cent. The percentage
in each state in the order of the high.
est ratio of checks was: Nebraska,
IS per cent; Iowa, 1872 per cent;
Kansas. 74.4 per cent; Illinois, 7O5
per cent. and Texas, 68.5 per cent
Other states. like North Dakota and
South Dakota, show similar condi-
Lion OF affairs.
