The giant Hmalaya berry. a far

achieving great popularity after

slow propagation. 1t has a strong root

tweniy-eight Democrats stood by. it.
The supposition is that the leaders
felt that the senate would never
agree 90 such a bill. But it would
have been wiser to let the senate
take the responsibility. The most
significant fact is that there are
Democrats who are disposed to Gin
surge" 1t is also interesting to OBJ
serve that the Democratic organiza-
ton is strong enough to maintain
discipline.
But the amendment should have
been adopted. in these days of di-
rect primaries, with their great cost
it is highly important that there
should be the strictest control of ex
penditures at these elections. We
feel that the Democratic organization
made a mistake In antagonizing and
defeating the Jackson amendment.
However, the bill that finally passed
is great improvement on the pre-
sent law. which latter is really of
little value.-Indianapolis News.

CLEANING UP DAY

Is Plymouth going to have clean
ing up day?
In the middle Of April it is time
it be thinking hard about such an
important occasion for the health and
beauty of the city. Many people
have already had their ashes hauled
away, raked their yards and are other
wise putting their grounds in proper
condition for this time Of year.
1t remains for the city to have a
general cleaning up day for the en-
tire town when all the ragged edges
may be removed, all the alleys raked
clean, and all the rubbish scraped
out of every nook and corner.
Only by a geneal cleaning up day
movement can this be accomplished
as it ought to be. Shall we do it?

CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTIONS

Just why the Democratic organiza-
ton of the house should have seen it
to oppose the amendment greatly
strengthening the publicity bill is
hard to understand. The proposed
bill requires publicity of campaign
contributions before as well as after
the election, which is, Of course, as
il should be. This change is great
advance over the present law, which
provides only for post-campaign pub
Lefty.
But it was proposed to extend the
law so as to cover the individual re-
eeipts and expenditures Of candidates
for congress In connection with both
primary ind general elections. This
verv proper amendment was offered
by Republican and it was, with the
halo Of flfty-two Democratic votes,
Finally it was got out of

FOR A SLOGAN.

Plymouth is to have a SLOGAN.
That much in the line of progress
we can look forward to. The Com
mercial club has offered. five dollars
In gold to the person who will pro-
duce the best watchword for on city,
and the result will he eagerly looked
for by all our people.
This is quite an important matter
and the best minds of the city should
take an interest In the effort now be-
ing made to secure the very best slo-
gan possible. The honor that comes
to the successful person in this con-
test will be worth far more than the
gold piece.
All those cities of today that are
known as "ive ones" have some
kind of slogan as a rallying point
70 all the citizens-something of
which all are proud and which en-
thusiasm in the place.
Some of the recent ones that have
been adopted are "South Bend
World Famer," eft. Wayne With
Might and Main, CAN Trains Stop
At Elkhart.
The Plymouth slogan should be
something which will at once tell the
most and the best about our city, and
tell those things for which she is
most celebrated.

He HAD THEM IN A CORNER
ciergymar's Rebuke to Thought'ess
Youths at Once Neat and
Discovering.

A well-known clergyman was one
day in a BARRIERS shop, when four or
five young men walked in whom he
knew by their voices, but who did not
recognize the man in the chair, with
lather all over his face. They pro
ceeded to spend the time by telling
stories and using expressions which,
to say the least, were rather strong,
When the barber pulled away the
towel the clergyman, cleanly shaved,
stood before them. So nonplussed
were they that no n tried to take
the vacant chair, and the barber called
several times-"Next gentleman! Next
gentleman"
The clergyman smiled somewhat
grimly as he said:
1T isn't a bit of use, John. There's
net a man here who has the effrOnt'
cry to answer to that name"

HE'S THE ORIGINAL CROUCH
Surely Would Be Hard to Please Old
Gentleman With This Kind Of
Disposition.

There is in Washington an old
crouch" whose son was graduated
from Yale. When the young man came
home at the end of first term, he
exalted in the fact that he stood next
to the head of his class. But the old
gentleman was not satisfied.
Next to the head" he exclaimed
What do you mean? I'd like to know
what you think I'm sending you to col
lege for? Next to the head. Why
aren't you at the head, where you
ought to be-"
At this the son was much crestfal
len; but upon his return, he wen
about his work with such ambition
that at the end of the term he foun(
himself in the coveted place. WheI
he went home hat year he felt very
proud. 1t would be great news for th'
old man.
When the announcement was made
the -father contemplated his son for
few minutes in silence; then, with
shrug, he remarked:

TO FORCE EARLY MOULTlNG
Fowls Should Be Confined for About
Ten Days and Given About One
Quarter of Usual Ration.

To bring about early moulting, con.
fine the fowls in their various quar-
ters about August /, and for ten days
only allow them o~ne-fourth of their
usual rations. During this time they
lose flesh and stop laying.
Then liberate and feed them all the
corn, oats, peas, sunfower seed and
wheat they will eat. This causes a
rapid moult and the new feathers
start at once. The hens soon recover
from the process and begin to lay reg
ularly about October l..
The ration for laying hens should
not be too heavy, but should be varied
at frequent intervals. With your grain
ration animal food such as ground
flesh meat and bones, is essential.
Some green food too must be given.
Experiments at the New York station
showed that the product of eggs from
hens fed on corn neal was from % to
81 per cent. greater than from hens
kept on a more heterogeneous ration.
