Bad PardOnS.

On last Saturday Gov. Harmon grant
ed absolute!pardon or Communication OF
the sentence Of eleven people comfin-
ed in the Ohio penitentiary. Among
the eleven benefting by the governors
clemency were four men and one wo-
man convicted Of murder and three
men convicted of rape. Murder and
rape are the two worst crimes and
still of the many criminals confined
in the penitentiary the large majority
of the ones selected for clemency
had been guilty Of these crimes.
1t is true that all Iof these people
had been recommended for pardon 10y
the board Of pardons. Not one of
them had proved his innocence ofithe
crime of which jury Of twelve men
had convicted him. There was no
showing that a single one of them had
not had a fair and impartial trial. 1t
may be that they will all of them
hereafter lead honorable, upright lives,
but is it not bad thing to extend
clemency to so many people who have
committed such awful crimesP A
thing which makes these pardons look
worse is the fact that one Of the men
who had committed rape had done so
on his own daughter and another had
ravished girl under sixteen years Of
age.
While we recognize that the govern
or had the facts in each case more
fully than we have we believe that
pardons such as these cause people to
hold human life and the virtue Of
women too cheaply.
The crimes of rape and murder are
more prevalent in the United States
than in any other country. A larger
proportion of people, who are con-
victei of these crimes, are pardoned
in this country than in any other.
We believe that the reason murder
and rape are so common In this coun-
try is because of laxity in the enforce
ment of the law and Of pardons after
conviction. We regret that Gov.
Harmon in the exercise of executive
clemency should have seen fit to have
used 1t for the benefit of so many
murderers and those guilty of rape.
Human life and the virtue Of women
should be more closely guarded and
held more sacred than anything else
In the world. If this is to be so,
people must be made to realize that If
they commit these crimes they will be
swiftly and severely punished, that
escape from punishment is almost
impossible.

MILK cow THREE TIMES A DAY
II Pays, According to Results Secured
by Dalrymen and Owners OF
Large Herds.

Does It pay to milk a COW three
times a day? Dairymen and owners
of large herds say so. They can, and
do, produce the proofs, too, that milk
ing their cows this often is very
profitable practice.
TO obtain the best results from your
COW, or COWS, health and comfort
must necessarily be considered care
fully. The modern farmer is making
rapid progress in regard to the sani'
tary conditions Of his barns and dairy
stables, and learning also many i'm
proved methods of feeding. Yet a
surprisingly large number Of farmers
do not see that the COW with heavy,
full udder, unrelieved, is laboring
against big odds.
The two indlsputable benefits de-
rived from milking three times every
day are: A steady increase in the
amount Of milk produced, and high.
er percentage of butter fat in the milk.

persons who feed skim.milk to the

NOW FAVOR MILK
Once Regarded as Doubtful Diet To.
day II Is Preferred to Anything
Else for Sick.
(By r. b. BUCKHAM)

Dairying is always sure to prove
profitable. Many other ventures in
agriculture are fraught with risks and
uncertainties, but this invariably
proves secure, in season and out OF
season.
The demand for dairy products is
constantly on the increase. The time
was when the dairyman was com
PEELED to be on the watch for a mar
ket for his commodities. Nowadays.
the consumer is out in search of him.
His market is assured. Conditions
have been reversed.
The constant growth OF the great
industrial centers has slowly but sure
ly brought about a revolution In the
dairy market. Little by little the su-
burban farmers have been forced to
retreat before the steady advance OF
the builders brigade, until now almost
every farmer In the land is on an
equal footing with them.
Within a very few years the race
has come to recognize as II never did
before a Arue value of milk as an
article " food. Even among ply
sicians, too, this same change Of opin.
ion has home about. Formerly the doc
tor regarded milk as a doubtful ar
ticle of diet for his patient. Now he
prefers II to anything else.
The steady increase In the price OF
all dairy products is the best tribute
to their worth that could possibly be
paid. The world at large is extending
them recognition such as 1t never
did before; voluntarily places a high
or estimate on their value thar
formerly.
The dairy farmer can ask no NOR,
substantial evidence Of appreciation
than he is today receiving from tn,
community at large, in the shape o
advanced prices for the products o
his care and labor. And II is wei
earned and Justly due.
Any man who is willing to coaduc
a. dairy, In a progressive and pains
taking manner, is bound to put hi
fellow men under a debt OF obligation
20 him which will not pass unrs
warded.

Record-breaking crops. led by corn
with the greatest harvest ever gath.

of the United States during this year,
according to a report of the Bureau Of
Statistics of the Department of Agri.
culture.
The aggregate production of crops
in 1910 are approximately 7.6 per cent.
greater than the crops of 1909, and
about 81 greater than the average an

years. Prices for important crops av-

Disking kills many weeds.
There are various kinds OF dodder.
Gravelly land will not hold manure.
Any good corn soil is good for sor-
ghum.
Oats and field peas should be sown
as early in the spring as possible.
Sow clean, new crop OF clover seed;
old seed will not germinate freely
As soon as the weather turns mild
the canker worms ascend the tree.
An acre OF good sorghum should
produce three to five tons of fair hay.
The value of a good tomato is due
to the fact that It has but few seeds.
There are two points In favor OF
the grain drill that are many times
overlooked.
In buying a farm, select good land,
even II you cannot afford TO buy more
than 20 acres.
Success with the garden depends
to great extent upon the quality OF
the seeds that are used.
Sorghum appreciates warm weather
even more than corn, and should be
aoWn week or TWO later.
A very large acreage OF corn land
will be plowed this spring and a seed
bed prepared for another corn crop.
The clover stubble and roots con-
tain nitrogen, part OF which is OBJ
tained from the air and part from the
soil.
Young clover should never be pas
tured, as the tramping OF the cattle
will compact the soil so hard as to
| kill out most Of the plant.
Successful cranberry culture neces
sitates such a situation and control OF

may be easily and quickly flooded
A little nitrate of soda is a good
thing TO hurry along the growth ol
carly vegetables, and especially In
gardens that are not well manured.

milked frequently It caused these
Glands to be enlivened and stimulated,
with the result that more and better
milk was drawn from the COWS, and
he milking period was heightened in
nearly every instance.
The feed question is solved, too.
Keep a high-class breed of cows, and
whatever expenses are incurred by ex.
ira feed will be overbalanced by a
gain. The Holstein, Jersey and Ayr.
shire breeds are considered the best
for dairy purposes.
Milk three times daily for n month
and compare the results with this
month. Give the COW a square deal
and you'll be a wiser, wealthier farm.
