 MT. Arnold's statement to The Far mer today is as follows:
 .'I noticed in your issue of the 7th an article which I presume was prompted by designing leaders with method in their madness. The item does me a grave injustice. It infers dlsloyalty to my party and con- tains insinuations that are gross mis- representations. I brand all of the insinuations as false and malicious. Your informants have designed and schemed through treachery and de- ceit to crush me but such methods spur me on with renewed vigor in my fight for clean politics and the square deal.

prices lower than at Kansas City.
This is exactly what happened last

cents, and even at one time to thirty
and twenty-five cents.
1t is exactly what happens every
year with certain apple markets of
New York and New England and On

sumner got the benefit of the low
prices there would be small objection
to the glut; but he doesn't The com

$3.50 barrel for apples. my friends
in New York were paying five dol

the apples from Hood River and Ida

Developing Dairy Herd
PURE SIRES AND CAREFULLY SELECTED COWS
l.. j. Merdcth in Indiana Farmer

the herd of pure bred dairy cattle
the bull represents so per cent of
the breeding power of the herd,
but when used in the work of grad
ing up the common herd he repre-
sents more than 80 per cent for we
must not stop at the first cross, but
continue the work of grading up the
herd until we bring it up to a stand
ard of practical utility equal to that
of the pure breds from which the
first pure bred cross instituted. Thus
we see that the bulls used in bring
ing about such a condition represent
practically the whole thing in the
work of Improvement.
Careful Selection
Before we start out in search of a
suitable sire we should make a close
scrutiny of the best COWS in our
herds, noting the weak and good
points, but more especially the weak
ones and resolve in our minds eye
to select the kind of bull that is
needed to correct the weak points
and, strengthen the good ones When
we are thus equipped in our mind s
eye with the idea of what we want,
we may make a visit to some of the
leading herds of the breed we be-
lieve is best adapted to our needs
and keep going until we find what
we want. Above all We must not
get stuck on some fine looking bull
calf and make a compromise. Per-
severance will bring its reward We
will not only be able to see the buns
but the sires and dams from which
they descended.
Never be tempted by a likely cross
bred bull calf from your pure bred
sire and one of your grade dams To
use him would mean plainly retro
gression and ruin, for her the prin-
ciple of avatism and close in-breed-
ing would get in it's work. and the
size and contour as we'll as the in
herited qualities from the pure bred
sire would be lost. Whenever the
time comes when YOU can no longer
use the pure bred sire to advantage
in your herd, start out in search of
andother and before going make an
other close scrutiny of your best
cows and find what variations have
taken place and what type of bull
is needed t. carry out your ideas of

Men Who Never Unveil.

Thsrc is q wandering tribe Of the
Sahara called the Tuaregs, strange
people, supposed by some to have de-
scended from the crusaders and dis
tinguished By the wearing of wells, i
custom that has occasioned much dis
cussion. The Tuaregs guard their
eyes against the glare Of the desert by
two wells, one rolled round the TEN
pies and falling down in front of the
eyes, the other reaching from the nos
trils to the edge of the clothing, coT-
erins the lower part Of the face. All
manner of learned arguments have
been adduced to explain this custom,
but hygiene is obviously the only mo-
tive. This is shown by the statements
Of the i'uaress themselves and by
the sobriquet mouths for fies.'' which
they apply to all who do not wear the
wells. 1t is said that the Tuaregs
never remove theii: wells, even at meal
times. Indeed, they are so much q
part Of their wearers that any one de-
rrived of such covering is unrecog'
nized by his friends and relatives.
