poe.mh1es His Great Ancestor.

Lee Washington is, somewhere about
six wears old, and he offered the writer
a pair of pet hogs for some funny
papers. His address is Oak Grove post
office. Westmoreland county, Va.
Half a mile across the fields, in the
direction of the birthplace monument,
lives Lawrence Washington, a dignified
gentleman seventy-five years old, and
his family. He, too, Is a farmer. One
of his daughters, Miss Sarah, is a trained
nurse. and the other, Miss Julia, keeps
house at home. A son also remains at
home. Lawrence Washington Is a Con-
federate veteran. He bears a strong
facial resemblance to Washington the
Great. 1 stopped at his home for a
chat. and the theme he struck on was
the inadequate steamboat facilities IN
that part Of the country.
II hear they have taken of the Wake
field Ga river boat from the Wirt's
wharf route and that no boat Is going
to stop at Wirt's. II We had a boat
three times a week we could get our
produce to market I have known farm
ers to send a load Of peaches to the
wharf and the boats would not make a
landing"
1t would be a violation of confidence
to print some OF the remarks Mr.. Wash
ington made about steamboat companies.

terms OF denunciation against the rail-
roads, could get tips from. him.

that while there are now 10000 horses in
the army on a peace footing the require
ments on a war footing would be at least
$4,000. while the expenditure of horse life
cannot be estimated 1t is pointed out,
however, that in one year during the
civil war there were $4,000 horses pur-
chased and more than 10000 captured, and
the expenditure Of horsefiesh was at the
rate of 800 a day.
The report contains q valuable paper on
the vaccination Of cattle against tuber-
culosis. This is the joint work of DR.. E.
c. Schroeder. DR.. John Monler. w. E..
Cotton and Henry Washburn. The dairy
business is also considered, and a paper
by s. c. Thompson tells how the profits
of dairying may be increased by the
utilization of by-products.
Report on Meat Inspection.
In speaking of meat inspection DR.. Mel
vim says that the total of animals
slaughtered under federal inspection last
year was little more than 10000, 900, a
reduction from nearly 100000 the pre-
vious year. The reduction was because
Of the decrease in the number of hogs
slaughtered.
This inspection was carried on at 919
establishments in 237 cities. The work
was done as economically as possible, but

limit of the 100000 Appropriated by
Congress. There were fOrty-three more
establishments added to the list, where
inspection was carried on, than in the
previous year, but it is said that no
further extension will be possible unless
more money Is available.
Attention is called In the report to the
repeated criticism that the inspection
service passes the carcasses of some ami
mails that are diseased and which are
not wholly DESTROYED. DR. Melvin saws
| that the diseased portion in such cases
is a gland or some local organ. while
the meat Of the entire carcass is not af-
fected. There is no reason, he says, to
destroy q whole good carcass on account
OF some local affection in cases where
| the best scientific authorities agree that
] the parts used for food are perfectly
good.

was to make his 'hands" and the Share

the ''hardpan'' that underlies the sandy

Denver, July 22.-The democratic

and they did successfully, wiping out
sex lines entirely. AS a result of the
stand taken, the women and men are

consequence will be more successful.
The situation is considered by the
women as a step toward a division
of both state and patronage and state
offices this fall.
1t is understood here that the

organize a woman's Woodrow Will
son club, but the progressive demo-
cratic women have given it out they
