The Dry Farming Special Train

he Ory Farming Special ram
About 200 citizens of our district met
the Dry Farming Special Institute train
here Saturday afternoon. The train was
in charge of G. II. Hinman, Extension
Superintendent, and under the auspices
of The State Agricultural College Of
Ft. Collins. The train had five coaches
and one baggage car and arrived here at
LAO. leaving at 4 p. m. When the seats
were filled members Of the college fac
ulty and other noted specialists gave
haifhour lectures, with blackboard il
lustrations, which could not fail to be in
structive and profitable. Mr.. Louck, of
Eads, talked on Supplementary Irriga-
ton. showing galvanized iron casing
strainer for wells and explaining the
successful methods of pumping and irri-
cation. The Chicken Problem was ably
discussed by w. E. Vaplon, and Mr..
Fitch talked spuds. A fine exhibit was
shown in the baggage car and printed
lectures were distributed. The train
scheme carries the training school to the
farmers and is a most commendable and
valuable campaign of education.
Exciting Runaway
When Mrs. w. S, Helphrey and Mrs.
F. C. Palmer of High Tower started for
Keota the other day they found their
driving horse had mind of his own. He
seemed inclined to warm up by running,
and would not be controlled. The ladies
had no objection to travelling at fast
speed, providing it was toward their des-
tination, but any old way was good
enough for the horse. When his OBJ
streperous spell had subsided the ladies
got him headed toward Keota, where
they arrived well satisfied with their ex-
citing experience,

AS an example of trusts and monop-
olies prevalent even in that early day
it may be mentioned that in 1850 one
Benjamin Crabb obtained the exclus-
i've right to make sperm candles in
Massachusetts for IA years.
A year later, however, factory was
started in Providence, R. l., and with
in the decade there were eight fac
tories in New England and one in
Philadelphia. Their output greatly re-
duced the price of candles. which not
long before sold for five shillings a
pound in those days $1.25 was worth
fully three times as much as 1t is now.

Doctors Said He Would Die
A Friends Advice Saves Life

I wish to speak of the wonderful cure
that I have received from your noted
Swamp-Root, the great kidney and blad-
der cure Last summer l was taken with
severe pains in my back and sides. I
could not breathe withouC difficulty and
was nearly wild with the desire to urinate.
Was compelled to do SO every ten min
utes with the passage OF pure blood with
the urine. 1 tried all the different doc
tors from far and near, but they said it
was no use to doctor as would die any,
way. I was at the end of my rope and
was so miserable with pain and the
thought that 1 must die that words can
not tell how I felt. One day friend told
me of the wonderful help she had received
from DIR. Kilmer's Swamp-Root. She gave
me one of your pamphlets which 1 read
and determined to try Swamp Root. After
taking half a bottle I felt better. Have
now taken ten bottles and am well as I
ever was, thanks to Swamp-Root. wish
to tell all suffering people that have kid
ney, liver or bladder trouble, that Dr. Kill
mer's Swamp-Root is the best medicine on
the market.
All persons doubling this statement can
write to me and I will answer them di-
rectly, Yours very truly,
CLYDE F. CAMERER,
Resale, Wash.
Subscribed and sworn to before me this
23rd day of July, 1909.

Expect New Liquor Measures.

A number of new liquor measures
are expected Agitation regarding
county option has developed the fact
that the county-optionists have up
their sleeves a tentative or compro.
mise plan, which will be offered in
the event that the regular county Cd.
ton bill is defeated-which seems
quite certain.
This tentative proposal would make
the county the unit in counties where
the rural population exceeds the total
population of all cities in that county,
and the city the unit where the city
population is the greater. 1t is conf.
IDENTIFY expected that such a measure
will have easier shedding and no little
prospect of passage, as it may have
the support of representatives from
counties which would not, under the
circumstances, become the voting
unit. In Milwaukee county, for in.
stance, the city's right to decide the
saloon question for itself would not
be disturbed.

Election of JUDGES MAY Be widened.

Election of Judges May Be Widened-
A movement started by the IN
PRODUCTION of a bill to provide
ton of non-partisan candidates for
circuit judgeships is likely to affect
the whole state. The Stern bill,
which is designed to prevent the So
cialists from electing all or ma
jority Of the six circuit judges in Mil
waukee will come before the assem-
bly, elections committee this week, at
which time, to the surprise of those
most concerned, the Socialists will
support the measure, but will seek to
make it applicable to the whole state
instead of to Milwaukee county alone.
The radical members declare they are
not opposed to a primary for judicial
elections, as they do not believe it
will affect their chances of eIecting
the entire Milwaukee county bench.
Therefore, on the theory that whats
sauce for the goose is sauce for the
gander," they bid fair to execute a
coup that will put old-time legislative
craft to shame
The Stern bill provides for a pri-
mary election at which any number Of
candidates may contest for nomina-
lions, and the primary will reduce the
number who will go on the ballot at
the regular election to two for each
Judgeship. Thus in Milwaukee coun-
ty the primary will leave II nomi-
nees to go on the ballot-they being
the II who stand highest at the pri-
mary.
The complexion of the assembly
elections committee is such that the
measure may be recommended for
passage, but its fate in the senate is
altogether problematical, as there are
Is lawyers in that body, none of whom
is Socialist.
Other committee hearings SEIZED
uled for next week are the joint ses-
sion hearing on the income tax bill
and special hearing on the bill to
fix the method of running the insur-
ance department with regard to pay
ment of expenses of examiners of in
surance companies.

To Control Brewers, HOLDINGS.


Second in interest to the county Op.
ton bill Is the forthcoming attempt
to prohibit brewery corporations from
owning and maintaining saloons. It is
in this point that the liquor interests
as body are split, the Retail Liquor
Dealers association apparently being
more powerful than the brewers. It
might be added, in passing, that there
is every Indication that to date the
IquOr interests have been much more
active-but more secretly-than in
many previous sessions, and that
hardly member has escaped their
attempts at moral and other kinds of
suasion.
Among the other liquor bills al
ready in are one by Assemblyman
Monsoon, striking out the provision of
the statutes whereby a minor is al.
lowed to purchase liquor upon a writ
ten order from parent or guardian;
compelling the revocation of a license
for violation of ANY" excise law; pro-
htbiting the licensing of a saloon with
in one mile of any Incorporated vii
lage or city; and increasing the statu-
tory penalty for drunkenness. Bills
which are said to be on the way are:
TO place the licensing power in the
hands of the county and give the
county all the increment; to increase
the minimum saloon license to $500 a
year; to prohibit saloons except in
cities and villages; to prohibit sa-
looms within a mile of the National
Soldiers home at Milwaukee; to pro
htbit saloons in Madison by extending
the present "half-mile" limit: and tc
prohibit treating in saloons
