Dairy DOings.

Sameness in feed is no more con-
ducive to appetite in the COW than in
the human. and appetite is essential
to big production.
Treat your calves with considera-
ton. They should have grazing, plen-
ty of water and enough skimmilk aDd
grain to form a balanced ration.
Kicking is very frequently caused by
sore teats, inflamed udders, long finger
nails and possibly at times by the gen.

The dairy barnyard should have
good slope, such as will insure good
surface drainage. and should have a
good top layer Of gravel or cinders.

make. If kept until it ferments it will
make poor butter.

EARS OF SEED CORN WITH KERNELS RE-
MOVED FOR TESTING.
[From bulletin, United States department
of agricultural
spond with the rows of squares across
the tray. These rows of ears should
be kept in Il dry. warm place on the
floor on corn racks or on shelves,
where it can be certain that they will
not be disturbed or displaced until tho
test is finished.
When ready to begin the test, two
children can work to the best advan-
tage. one to handle the individual ears
and the other to plant the tray. The
first takes up ear No. in the first
row and. with the point of a pocket
knife applied to the edge of kernel,
removes five kernels from each ear
passes them to the second pupil and
carefully replaces the ear in its row.
The kernels should he taken in sue
cession Oaking only those Of average
siZel from about an inch above the
base of the ear to the same distance
below its tip. passing sprally around
and lengthwise of the ear. This in
sures n fair test of the whole ear. as
it sometimes happens that one side or
one end of an ear is sound, while the
others will not grow. The illustration
shows a few ears with kernels remov-
ed in this spiral fashion. Full direc-
tons for the conduct of the test are
given in the bulletin. +"

SCHOOL SEED CORN TESTS.
Recommended by Department Of Ag-
riculture as Exercise For ChiIdren.

Recommended by Department of Aq-
rieulture as Exercise For Children.
Seed corn testing as u school exer-
else, especially in the rural districts. is
recommended in II bulletin issued by
the United States department of agri-
culture for the following reasons:
First. it furnishes an easy and inter-
esting study in seed termination and
plant growth second. the extended
use of good metIOd has vast eco
nomic value in improving the produc-
tiveness of American agriculture. and,
third. the teaching of it in the rural
school eXerts strong influence to-
ward increasing the confidence of par
ents in the permanent worth of good
school work.
The only materials needed are q
shallow wooden tray. Il small handful
of carpet tacks. Il few yards of wrap
ping twine. sand enough to ill the
tray and three or four quarts Of wa
ter. The tray (or several of theml can
easily be sawed from an empty soap
or cracker box. When finished it
should be about one and one-half inch
es deep inside. fifteen inches wide and
twepty-three inches long, but any of
these dimensions may be varied slight
ly. This tray is divided into small
squares by checkerbOard lacing of
twine across the top. 1t is convenient
to have these squares about one and
One-half inches on a side. ten of them
in row across the narrow way of the
tray and fifteen the other way. The
lacing with the string should not be
done until the tray has been loosely
filled with dry sand heaped up a little
above its top edge. Then the sand
should be scraped off with yardstick
or other straight edge even with the
top of the tray. After lacing with the
string the tray is ready for planting.

There was a large crowd at the
festival Saturday evening, re-
gardless of the threatening as
pect of the weather. Nearly ev-
erything was sold by 10 o'clock,
and much more could have been
sold had there been a supply of
it, but owing to the weather pros
poets up to a late hour, it was
thought best not to get too large
a a-supply for the occasion. The
ladies, however, are not discour-
aged, but announce that on Sat-
urday evening, June "a, they
will give another festival and
promise to have on hand a sum-
cient supply of the usual delica-
cies of the season, so that all can
enjoy a pleasant evening.
There was large attendance
at Sabbath school Sunday morn
ing, and the collection was the
largest for many months. This
speaks we'll for the community
and should be continued indefin-
itely.
There is nothing that advances
the status of a community as
much as the interest shown in
the public institutions which
make for the moral and religious
uplift of it's citizens. A deep re-
ligious tone in any community is
a valuable asset in this life and
a sure winner of reward in that
which is to come.

this grab of money. And he left
word with the Treasurer to this
effect: PAY these legislators for
one year only. They are not en-
titled to pay for the second term
as yet. Their salary is a COM
pensation, and no compensation
is due for doing nothing at all.
That bill they passed is uncon-
stitutional. They must not have
their pay for the second term
just now, and they may never
get it at all. They will not get
the money for nothing if the
courts sanction my view of the
case"
Good for Hogan! A Daniel has
appeared in the case.
This salary grab bill confirms
the general belief in the corrup-
tion of the legislature. Why did
they want their money a year in
advance? Perhaps some of them
will die before the money is due.
It looks as though some of them
will have to go to the state pri-
son, and in either case how could
they attend the legislature in
case of an extra session?
Verify, the solons have lost
their heads.

est IN an apparent fight within
the Democratic House majority,
concerning the tariff on wool in
the new bill which Mr.. Under
wood is expected to present early
next week. Mr.. Bryan has been
in Washington and has tried to
influence the Ways and Means
Committee in favor of free wool.
Mr.. Underwood holds that a
small tariff on wool is necessary
for revenue. The contention
was waxing warm and Mr.. Bry-
an has been criticized for his in
reference, Mr.. Underwood poin-
ting out that when Bryan was in
Congress he voted for the Wilson
bill, which levied a tax on wool.
1t is expected that the Demo
cratic caucus will approve the
Underwood measure and that
Mr.. Bryan will, as usual, be de-
feated.

The Attorney General stated
yesterday that the Department
of Justice in it's efforts to control
all unlawful combinations in in
terstate trade, would bring GRIM
inal charges under the Sherman
law against responsible persons.
The Attorney General gave this
information in his testimony be-
fore the House Committee on
Expenditures in the Department
of Justice. He then declared that
as a result of the Standard Oil
and Tobacco case decisions, jur-
les will now be disposed to con-
vict and judges to impose SEN
tences under the penal provisions
of the law. Representative Be-
all of Texas had asked the At
tOrney General why Chere naQ
been so few criminal convictions
under the Sherman antitrust
law. The Attorney General an
swercd that in the past juries
had shown a reluctance to con-
vict and the courts to impose
prison sentences. He attributed
this to the uncertainty as to the
import of the law, now made
clear by the Supreme court de-
cisions.

Washington Notes.
Washington, June 2.

Washington, June z
The United States is close tt
that postal Utopia, a one-cent
sealed letter rate. For the frs
time in thirty years the postoffict
department is not only self-sup,
porting, but is bringing large
revenue to the government,
When we remember that only
two years ago there was a deficit
of more than seventeen millions
of dollars and that there is now
a surplus of three millions, in
volving a change of twenty mil.
lions, we can have some appre-
citation of what Postmaster Cen
eral Hitchcock has accomplished.
He can do much more if Con-
gress will but second his efforts,
and by the establishment of a
parcels post rinetynine per cent
of the people of the United States
will be benefited and the federal
government will turn what has
heretofore been a losing business
into one of great national profit.
At the present time there is, be-
sides the three million dollars
turned back to the Treasury, a
full million in the national post
Office and unless the expenses
during this month should prove
extraordinary, the surplus will
be still greater for the fiscal year.
Let it not be forgotten that the
present administration inherited
a deficit of more than SIT, ,500,-
600, the largest in the history of
the postal service. This deficit
was soon changed after Post
master General Hitchcock took
charge. In the past it always
has been the custom for the gov
ernment to set aside at least ten
millions to meet the deficit of the
general postofice, but Mr.. Hitch
cock found that he would not
have to use any part of the a
mount and sent it back to the
Treasury. An accounting plan
was adopted about a year ago,
which insures the prompt deposit
in the Treasury of postal funds
not required for disbursement at
postoffices, and to this reform in
the financial system of the post
Office department the present
much desired condition is in part
indebted.

Big Show Coming.

from a Kansas City paper says:
with thrills galore and clowns
a plenty, with all the dust, saw
dust, the panorama of moving
crowds, and the subtle air of ex-
citement that goes with aeircus,
the Dan Robinson show paid US
its annual visit.
THE crowd was a circus crowd.
There were people of all classes
I-youngsters with mouths and
eyes wide opened at the strange,
mysterious things that surround
ed them, old folk seeking the
youth-inspiring atmosphere of
the big show, and people that
had never seen a circus. Around
the circus grounds were booths
and wagons where circus pea
nuts, popcorn and lemonade could
be bought, but there was no pink
lemonade. Tha time e-honored
beverage was vanquished, and
all that was sold was as clear as
crystal.
when with a fanfare of trum-
pets and a clapping of hands
from the vast audience beneath
the domelike canvas roof, the
grand march began almost every
seat was filled. All eyes were
turned toward the entrance as
with fantastically garbed band
in the van, the procession of wild
beasts, clever and daring perfor-
mers and equestrians and all the
rest of the circus citizens march
ed by.
"In the big rings something
was transpiring all the time. Ac-
robats and wire-walkers provid-
ed the thrills and the breathless
expressions of amazement, beau
tiful and we'll groomed horses
and intelligent elephants, elicit
ed admiration, and a regiment of
comical clowns relieved the thrills
and brought forth laughs. So
different was each act that none
could especially be designated as
the crowning one of the show.
"There were many equestrian
acts, all of which received their
due need.
Coming as a ridiculous contrast
| to the daring feats performed
near the top of the tent was the
Congress Of Fools" which con-
stituted parade of all the clowns
in the show. Leading the mob
of grotesque, ridiculously clothed
funmakers was a good imitation
of T. Roosevelt, carrying a gun
and pistol, and with him the an
imals of the Jungle that ne had
tanned. There was a lion with
the orange-colored name, a gi-
raffe with purple spots, weird
beasts never seen before by man,
and as "Toothsome Teddy
strobe down the sawdust track
with his menagerie' on his heels
he received the laughs and cheers
of everybody.
THE races were thrilling e
nough, but the real thrill was
provided in the first race, when
five women riders tore around
the track at a quick pace.

of the legislature are corrupt
that they have been, for some
time past, in the habit of selling
their votes for money, and this
unfortunate belief is being for
titled by the strange proceedings
of the legislative body.
The Senate, for instance, has
been putting distractions in the
way of probing, saying harsh
things about the detectives en-
ployed to catch the guilty, ap-
pointing committee of their
members to probe, really to
whitewash, and finally coming
out square in affirming that the
legislative members are innocent
of any crookedness - that the
bwicked newspapers have been
lying in their reports. Allof which
goes to show that the Senate
wanted no probing of the legis-
lature for alleged crookedness.
This attitude seems to argue a
consciousness of guilt. Why
should innocent lawmakers be
so sensitive as to their doings?
Rather than bitterly opposing
and condemning investigation of
alleged wrong doings, the Sen
ate should have given encOur-
agement and assistance to find
out the truth. No guilty man in
the legislature should be shielded
for the sake of a general impress
sion. Better have the guilty
ones exposed and punished.
The trial of DR.. Nye has not
helped matters a bit. The ac-
cused man was acquitted by the
jury, but public opinion holds
him guilty. Why did he not go
on the stand to testify in his own
behalf? Was he not afraid of
being drawn out?
The jury had it impressed up
on them that State Printer Craw-
ford is a bad man generally and
that he lied in his testimony, and
no other witness testifying to
the same fact left room for an
honest doubt and the jury, as
usual, gave the accused man the
benefit of the doubt. But pub
lie opinion still holds that Craw-
ford told the truth on the stand.
lFhe salary grab is another con-
Slnation. The legislature meets
6nce every two years, remaining
in session about five months, for
which time and service each le-
gislator receives a salary of two
thousand dollars thousand dol
lars at the expiration Of each
term, the second thousand dol
lars for doing nothing at all.
On the last day of the late ses-
sion the legislature passed a bill
authorizing the State Treasurer
to pay for the two terms at the
end of the first, that is, pay them
a year in advance. The Cover
nor very properly and promptly
vetoed the bill, but the greedy
solons passed the bill in spite of
the veto. They wanted money
and must have it. And it looked
as if nothing could hinder the
salary grab.
Stay! There is a man named
